Stuart, Good point. I forgot all about that! One should definitely check the windows add/remove applet before deleting an uninstall shortcut for a program. Some years ago I actually had an "Uninstall" folder for those rogues that don't list themselves with Windows. I haven't noticed one for awhile now. If I do have any I guess they must be good programs because I haven't had to unistall them :o) -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Stuart McLachlan Sounds very much like the way I organise mine , except for: > I delete folders for automatic type utilities that I never go to the > start menu to use - like WinZip, Adobe Reader, QuickTime, etc. These folders often contain shortcuts to UnInstal and a few other goodies. Rather than deleting them, I have a first level folder called "Shell Tools" that I hide them in. -- Stuart _______________________________________________ dba-Tech mailing list dba-Tech at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-tech Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
