Guess that’s why I put “For XP” at the beginning of my paragraph, huh?! :)

I am using simple “Path Copy to Clipboard” shell extension from Mike Lin -> http://www.mlin.net/other.shtml
Small, easy and working like a charm.

Hate to repeat myself but does it work with XP Diana?

For XP, I use a dinky little program called Clickie, available from http://www.defoortsoftware.com/ , which puts “Copy Path Name” and “Open MS-DOS Prompt” into the right context menu for all files. It couldn’t be easier, and I’d be lost without it!

Sorry about that Joe, was answering the last question to the article, “Anyone have a way to add this functionality to XP?”

The answer is Yes! I’m using it right now on XP.

Cheers…

Alternative file browsers such as ExplorerXP or freeCommander (and I am sure many others) allow one to do that as either an "Edit" menu option or keyboard command.
