[nfbcs] Copying a name

[Curtis Chong]

Doug:

Very useful.  I did not know about shift-applications in Windows Explorer.
It gives you the complete file name--with path<smile>.

Very truly yours,

Curtis Chong

In at least Windows Vista and 7, you can also get the full path to the
file, rather than just its name, thus: Move to the file you want in
the list of files and folders, then type the Shift key with the
Applications key and choose "Copy as Path." This option appears only
when you use Shift with the Applications key, not if you use just the
Applications key by itself. It copies the full file path to the
clipboard.

Hi,

It is possible, please follow these steps

In explorer let the focus be on the file whose name u want to copy, say the
file name is annual-report.doc.

Press function key f2.

This is used to rename the file and hence it turns into edit box. Likely
leaving .doc or .docx extension.

Press ctrl + c here

N u shall have copied the file name.
