Hi, I hope someone might be able to help me solve this problem ...

In XP on my computer I have a folder called "My Pictures". Photos and
pictures stored here seem to generate a thumnail or preview along the bottom
of the folder when you open it. This is very useful in quickly enabling me
to locate the picture I require by scrolling through the previews.

When I place a CD in my CD drive, also containing picture files, the little
previews or thumnails are not generated. This then means I have to either
start a slide show or open each picture file individually to find the one I
am looking for.

Is there some simple way of getting XP to generate the previews or
thumbnails of pics stored on CDs?

Thanks for any help anyone might be able to offer.
 
David, many thanks ... lol ... i thought there must be a simple solution
and low and behold there is. Thanks very much for your assistance ...
problem solved! (I'm still getting used to XP ... it s a little different
from my old Windows 98 PC). Very greatful for your suggestion.

Regards, Lee :)
