Re: Buy.Com: Since we are tooting Buy.Com's horn,I bought a HP Scanner and it was over a $100 cheaper than any other .com company I could fine. Shipped that sucker the day I ordered it and it arrived as advertised. As of now, I'm sold on Buy.Com. Donald

if there is a way for Explorer or Systemworks to give you a list of files sorted by size? I'm not sure this is what you are looking for but you can sort by size in My Explorer by opening each folder and going to view/detail and clicking on the size toolbar at the top of the window. It sorts like a toggle switch, small to large or viceversa. thecow

Files by size ... Open a DOS window and type the command DIR /S /OS from the root directory and you'll get all directories on your disk sorted by size. You can use DIR /S /O-S and get them listed biggest to smallest. Leave out the /S and you'll not get the subdirectories. It may be useful to re-direct the output: DIR /S /OS > FILES.TXT and look at FILES.TXT with Notepad or print it out. You can change the /OS to print Order Date with /OD. Use /OS /OD to sort Order Size, then Order Date, or /OD /OS to sort by Date first and then size. Just type DIR /? and you'll get a list of what's available. Put them together and create your own results. Hope this helps, PW.
