However, if you hold Shift while clicking "No" you get a "No to all" which is exactly what you want at that moment. what I like a lot (on XP) when copying a lot of files onto an external drive where I already copied some of them before: On the confirm overwrite dialog there is a “yes to all” button, but no “no to all” button.

I just got a keyboard with a volume-control knob on it. It controls the Master Volume slider in the Volume Control window. Yes, you can adjust the volume without having to mess with any windows. The Volume Control window doesn't have to be in Front. This is a cheap keyboard that came with a Dell-Outlet computer. It's a safe bet there are other keyboards with a volume control, also. For an online retailer, I like newegg.com (just one of a million satisfied customers). Nipuna wrote:
