Hi,
I never use the feature, but window eyes and probably jaws as
well, have techniques for locking mice and dragging and dropping. Some
folks use the technique, but I always look for easier ways to skin the
proberbial cat!
Rusty
P.S.
Russell, you're kidding about the dragging and dropping, aren't you? So far
as I know, that's an action that can be achieved only with mouse and
eyesight. What I'd been trying to do, in a confused way (because I was
never sure if I was attempting to paste files into the right place) was just
copy and paste.

Subject: Re: CD/R compilation burned with Nero behaving like CD/RW
Hi,
I can't help you with the white noise problem, but to make your
life easier, when you have a file selected, instead of dragging and
dropping it, try pressing control 1, the top row one, and that will put the
selection(s) into your compilation. You can use standard windows selection
techniques, i.e. control key and space bar to pick non contiguous files,
and a control one will put them all in the compilation. Hope this makes
life easier.
