How to add size to the column display ?

[Dyumani]

hello friends,

I am using Outlook Exprees in my Windows for mailing service. I receive lots of mails in which there are attachments. I want to view the size of the attachments that are being sent before downloading/saving them. How can I add the size to the column display ?
Any ideas.......kindly help
thanks

Folder Size for Windows adds a new column to the Details view in Windows Explorer. The new column shows not only the size of files, but also the size of folders. It keeps track of which folders you view, and scans them in the background so you can see complete size of all files within the folder. It's very useful for cleaning up your disk.
Once you get used to having that information available, a directory listing simply looks incomplete without it!

Use the following plugins -

DirSize.DLL from Code Project
DirSize.DLL from http://markd.mvps.org

Using one of the above dirsize.dll plugins, you can add the Folder Size column for folders in Detail View. These plugins calculate the folder size and displays the information in a separate column. Place the file in Windows\System32 folder. Now, register the DLL using regsvr32 command from Start, Run dialog.

regsvr32 dirsize.dll

Next, open a folder and set it to Detail view. From the View menu, click Choose Details. Put a checkmark near Folder Size, and click OK. Use CTRL and + key combination to resize the column width, so that the Folder Size column is displayed correctly.

To apply this setting for all the folder, click Tools, Folder Options. In the View tab and click Apply to all folders.

To remove the feature, simply un-register the DLL [regsvr32 /u %Systemroot%\System32\Dirsize.dll]. Ignore error messages if any.

Follow the steps below -

1. Go to View / Columns
2. Check the Size box
3. Click on the OK button

Note - If you want to delete messages with large attachments, you can sort by size by clicking on the work Size at the top of that column.
