My first time using a USB flash drive on my Vista PC. After I copy say 9
files from my PC Hard Drive (C to a Flash Drive (L the Explorer window shows the 9 files and they all seem to open just fine in whatever application they use. However, above the listing of 9 files in the Explorer window there is a line that says: Unspecified (9). It is in a blue font with a thin blue line extending for the right side paran all the way across to the right side of Explorer window. If I click on the line is hides the 9 file names; if I click it again, I can see the 9 file names. What is this line for and what am I supposed to do with it (if anything)? Is it kind of like a folder desgination? The only thing I've seen similar to it wit Vista is if I'm copying files to a CD or DVD and they first get stacked together as temp files waiting for me to click the "burn" icon. Surely I do not have to click the "burn" icon when copying files to a Flash Drive? Right? TIA for any help/guidance, Rick |

It works in all folders.
Right click an open space in the folder window and you'll see an option to stack or group files. A variety of options there so I won't go into them all. Play with it a while and you'll see how it works. Better to do it in a folder with lots of files. "Jeeslawees" wrote in message ... My first time using a USB flash drive on my Vista PC.
