Hi, I don't have my vista system here at work, so I can't give you the steps to follow exactly unfortunately.
the answer is that vista, just like xp, has an option to control whether each new folder you open is opened in it's own new window, or using the current window from which you opened it (which is what you're seeing right now). Under the tools or the view menu is a choice for "folder options" I believe, where you can change this. if you set it to open new folders in new windows, you'll be able to tab between the previous and the new folder as you want to do. there's a mailing list for blind vista users which you may want to join in order to ask all your vista questions. you can send an email to: [email protected] to join it. good luck, Chip ------------------------------ Chip Orange Database Administrator Florida Public Service Commission [email protected] (850) 413-6314 (Any opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of the Florida Public Service Commission.) > -----Original Message----- > From: tt1 [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Friday, April 17, 2009 11:23 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Vista folders, can more be opened at 1 time? > > Greetings, > Just got a notebook with vista, before only used xp home/pro > when I open a folder and browse up/down, > then if I open a sub folder, > used to be able to switch back and forth between the 2 folders, > now in vista, only 1 folder is focused, > if I tab back to first opened folder, > just says custom control, > can someone please advise > > > If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original > sender only.
