Im not talking about Windows 2000 here.. but XP & 2003 server. The above seting Does not exist n XP or 2k3.

umm actually that is correct, im running server 2003 standard and i have it turned on... just like catwalker63 said:

tools> folder options> enable web content

then you will see the file preview and everything else just like in 2000 and XP

Okay, just checked an XP box and the option is still on the General tab but it is under Tasks and it is called "Show common tasks . . .". This toggles the selection from "Use Windows classic folders".

Your information about files and folders and drives will show up in a section called Details to the left side of your folder.
