Question : SharePoint File Folder Actions

Hi,

We are having the following issue. In a SharePoint site you should be able to use file & folder actions. When you hover a file or folder with your mouse, an arrow shows up with a dropdown menu where you select from different actions e.g. rename ; delete ; connect to outlook and much more.  We have sites where this works fine see "With Action Menu" but now I have one where this doesn't work ("No Action Menu") ; and I don't know the solution. Can anyone help me please. I have attached images so you can see the difference.

Some details:

Both servers are running SBS 2008. I did the test on Internet Explorere on both sharepoint sites.

Answer : SharePoint File Folder Actions

You probably chose the wrong field for the view.
When you configure the view (view menu, Modify this view), you will see a list of fields that can be added. You certainly have Name in it, but instead you should use Name (linked to item) or similar.
