MouseTrax File Cataloger
As Featured in Lockergnome!
Works with Microsoft Word 2000 or 2002
Dian does a lot of project management work and likes to organize files by linking them to a master
document with hyperlinks. This allows her to keep one master file and easily sort and locate the files she needs with a single hyperlink click. But linking a lot of files can take time. So Greg, great guy that he is, built Dian a cool utility to do the job for her! (And now he uses it too, to keep all his Administrative logs sorted!)
Greg Chapman shares his freeware Cataloger utility with you here. Just download it, double click to unzip, and place the resulting, unzipped DOT file somewhere convenient (like your desktop!). Then whenever you have a pile of files you'd like to organize, just double click this Word template to open it and an option dialog box will open. Set your preferences, point it at a directory and let 'er rip. In a few moments, you'll have a document linking all the files.
And for VBA fans, Greg has left his code open for you to learn and enhance.
Note! For great ideas of how to use this cool utility, see Dian's Get Organized Now! article in Computor Companion Ezine at: http://www.computorcompanion.com/LPMArticle.asp?ID=149. This article describes the idea behind the Cataloger creation and ways to use it. Think of all the photo files, document, project files, or even music files you have scattered around your hard drive. Wouldn't it be nice to have them organized? Download this free utility and see how easy it can be to sort them.
