from jan '01 pcworld mag.... "Heads Up... Bad Batteries in Dell Laptops: The company is recalling defective batteries that shipped with certain models of its Latitude and Inspiron notebooks. These batteries can short-circuit, even when they're not in use, creating a fire hazard. For a list of the notebook models and batteries affected by this problem and to exchange a recalled battery for two replacement ones, call 877/741-6420 or go to Dell's support site... support.dell.com " pcworld.com :) mark

Finally got it. Thanks I just wish my Netscape bookmarks would import to IE in the order I had them in instead of alphabetically but I'll drag them into my order when I got the time to.

OK, just like you said folders, with drop down lists, are draggable to the Links bar. Now is there any way to unalphabetize the Favorites within the folders residing on the Links bar? In Organize Favorites I reordered the Favorites within a folder on my Links bar but the changes only are visible by clicking Favorites on the toolbar then going down to Links then going to that folder. From the Links bar the folder is still alphabetized. Also, if there's a lot of Favorites in the folders on the Links bar an arrow appears at the bottom to view the Favorites that don't fit in one screen. Netscape gives 3 columns of Favorites (Bookmarks) so more are visible in one screen. Can IE be configured to do the same? Sorry to be such a pain. I'm just very used to Netscape but since I plan on becoming an IT professional I figured it's best to learn IE as well as possible since it's the preferered corporate browser. I understand that IE is more Network and Administration friendly but still being just an end user I do prefer Netscape. Thanks for the help with my "painful" transistion, SFKAJB
