If I have one design improvement, it is the for the screen [::] ==>ALL (application ALL selection). On the right side, we have the radio buttons for selection. What is it like when you have 10 radio buttons and are increasing in number. How can one have 10 buttons? It is easy, have 4 logon accounts on this one shared computer. Owner, wife, and two kids. How many radio buttons do we have to click on to search for a program beginning with "LA"? Can I just click one button, and have that screen with the LA icons appear? Some of you may remember old paper bound dictionaries which had the tab cutouts on the page turning edge. They had tabs there with the starting letters of the alphabet to assist in lookup. My wishlist request is to replace the radio buttons, or augment the radio buttons with an adjacent two characters of text. That text should be the first two characters of the icon's name appearing in the top left corner corresponding to that radio button. Happy New Year to all. -- ________________________________________________________________________ Regards Leslie Mr. Leslie Satenstein Montréal Québec, Canada
