Re: Folder titles change color
In Windows Help and Support, search for "file compression." Note that you
can set the properties for any given folders to control whether files are
compressed or not. Note that this is not a Word issue.

Re: Folder titles change color
Excellent!! Thank you so much; I had been looking on the Word properties, not
Windows properties. I was able to uncompress the file I currently work in.
Ideally, I'd just like to change the color of that designation, that color
drives me mad. I'm sure I'll never get that to happen, but can you tell me
who handles this NTFS file system? Is that a MicroSoft feature?

Re: Folder titles change color
It is a Windows feature, I suppose, and you would do better to ask in a
Windows discussion group, but I'm pretty sure you can't change the color.

Re: Folder titles change color
I suppose not as well, but it might be worth a try...
Many thanks!
