Hello Steve,

The ideas you suggest are first-class and some of them are now implemented. Because of the new info items gathered by program (FileDate , FileSize, Creator, Producer, CreationDate and ModDate) sorting operations are more versatile.
The idea to have multiple �acropanels�, tiled, to see, at same time, more than one file pass my mind for some time. I also need this option. Some other guys also suggest the possibility to add the option to open the file in an external Acrobat window to have access to options not present in the ActiveX used internally in the program. I'm going to implement this too.
My problem now is free time to implement all of these wonderful suggestions. My studies consume all of it :(. But I continue to working and some new features are now implemented.

Thanks by your continuous interest in transforming PDF Explorer in a program more useful for all, me included.

Compliments,
RTT
