Is it possible to display the document title in the Insert File window? If not, can it be done programmatically, and where does one find a programmer capable of doing this? Our staff uses Insert File heavily. We now must include the title in the file name, which is cumbersome and slows productivity.
 
In the dialog box, make sure you have "Details" selected as the view.
Right-click on any of the title bars (like "Size", "Type"), click the "More"
button. Scroll down and check "Title".

That ought to do it. No programming needed. Keep in mind that this is the
Title Document Property and unless filled in correctly, it might be several
words and not very useful!

If you have filled in the Title document property, this is displayed when
you mouse over a filename in File Open/Save or Insert File.
