thanks for the page but i wanted like add-in or something so that you could
do the custimizations in XP the same way you did it in Windows 9x. do you
have anything like that.

this GDI is really good. it is just missing two things.
1) being built into Windows Explorer
2)customizing the font color and font highlight for each folder.
it works really good. thanks for helping me find the product.
