I currently use PS v. 7.0 with WinXP Pro.
When I try to "open" graphics files with PS, it does not show what their file format (psd, gif, jpg, etc) is.
It only shows the name of the files. Is there any way to enable see complete file names (name + file format)?
TIA. Satoshi

If you are on Windows, you need to turn off "hide known file extensions" in any Windows Explorer window. Quickest wau: Fire up "My Documents". Click on Tools (on the menu) and choose "Folder Options". Then in "View" tab, turn off the little check box next to the "Hide extensions for known file types". Click OK.

Now in PhotoShop you will see file extensions in any of the file browser dialogues.
