I know, I tried it out on my e drive and of course it did not work. This
time I have found a way round it as I have set the menu to open everything
into a new window. Therefore the user can close the window and go back to
the menu that way. I have still to test it on my husband yet. If it does not
get him into a muddle most basic to average users would be able to cope with
it. I now have a showcase set up that should make my tutor very happy next
term.

On the other hand this still does not solve the problem of how do you go
back through along the file path without starting at the very beginning
(i.e. naming the root or using http)? Am I asking to do the impossible?
