Hey i feel kinda stupid now the extension thing was me being dumb...

I found the damn move option... after i clicked REMOVE SELECTED .... Sorta indicates clicking this button might delete the selected items which i did not want to do SO i did not run the risk of clicking it to find out!

U may need to put more thought into idiot proofing your software

Dylan: I understand your initial concern about the Remove Selected button...until you use the program you have no way to know all the confirmation buttons you need to click before actual deletion. First time I used it I made some deliberate duplicates so I could give it a trial run to see how it functioned so I didn't lose anything valuable.

Great software! Thank you!

I need to be able to Exclude named files (with wildcards) from the search criteria.

Examples: john* ; ???bob??? ; bill.* ; *.log ; etc. etc.

Thanks again. I very much appreciate your excellent work!

Hi Tom, thanks for your suggestions. I'll try and respond to each.

1. This option has been implemented in the next version.
2. I'll try and implement 'sticky' columns. I do have a new feature called Quick columns though which lets you quickly change between visible column collections at the press of a button.

3: A good idea - I want to look into something like this depending on time.
4: Will have a look at the window's behaviour.

Tom/Dylan:
The remove selected button is misleading, I realise. I want to rename it on new version: Any suggestions?
'Removal Options', 'Deal with files' ?

Thanks for your responses, DV. I look forward to seeing what you come up with. As to changing the Remove Selected button, I'd vote for Removal Options.

DV- Thanks for responding.

When might it be convenient for the next version to be available?

Thanks again, John
