No, I said it puts something (called a menu bar by eCS I guess) in the folder
that has the same functions in it as the WPSWiz toolbar would have. Remember I
installed WPSWiz first so I got to see what it did. Under both Folder and
MiscTools menu entries I find CD-R/W Tools... and clicking that opens the same
panel that one of the icons did in the "real"toolbar. The rest of
the "real"
toolbar functions are found in the Properties notebook. (This stuff was much
better done in 0.53 without the horriblw Wiz, so if one doesn't *NEED* DVD
capability, one is probably better off with 0.53. Presumably, CW will get his
act together eventually and get WPSWiz to play nice with eCS 1.2. But until
then, avoid it as you would the plague.)

No, it's not as slick, elegant, or convenient; but it doesn't totally screw up
the rest of my Desktop configuration and customization either. You pays your
money and you takes your chances.

To get this to stick, turn off the Template property, make the changes, then
turn it back on. Otherwise, you'll have to turn on the menubar/toolbar in each
folder you pull off a Create... template.

Given the customization possible with eCS 1.2, one can probably add and remove
things from that menubar. But I haven't had time to try and hunt that down
yet, so I get by with the default, which is quite OK for my needs now. Maybe
next year I'll want more?
