thanks for the replies
I havent had a chance to look at these yet, been a busy week for Fimbar.
One problem I will have is that I will need to use the stick on a PC that I dont have admin rights. Its nothing serious but I tend to get called away from my office at short notice a lot and dont want prying eyes looking at my work.
What I cant undertsand is that MS does not include this option in their office suite. When I first looked I thought Id just right click a folder and change a property setting,if only it were that simple
