Copy/paste the hovering text box.
Posted by Frank Martin on January 16th, 2006


I have WindowsXP/Media Centre 2005

When the cursor is held over a file, a small
yellow text box appears containing the files
properties.

How can I adjust the amout and type of date which
appears in this box?

Also, can I copy/paste this data, say to the body
of a document for record purposes?

Please help.

Check the properties of the file. The same or even extended information is
usually shown on the "Summary" page.
