These feastures are far to slow to be of use. When I add the same comment to 100 files, go in to that folder, the 100 comments takes about 30 seconds to load. It’s not a performance issue. The issue is stupid Microsoft. The only data that the OS is designed to handle quickly is the default columns. All others like Artist, subject, comments are an affectation of MS Word file properties, applied to all file types, to hold the OS together like spit and glue.

Or… Tell me how to speed up this comments column popullating.

What SUMMARY tab? I tried this on a few PCs and none have a SUMMARY tab under PROPERTIES.

This works for regular files. How can I do the same for a directory?
If the solution requires Windows PowerShell, that would be welcome either.
Thanks, Andy

I don’t have a SUMMARY tab when I right-click on Properties. This is the case on both my XP & Vista PCs. So apparently it’s not “that simple”.
