File preview for Explorer?

Is there an add-on for Explorer to give it a preview function for Office
files (2007 if possible - not mandatory)similar to the one it has for
graphics? There used to be a lot of file managers with a preview features,
they seem to be a little harder to find now. If not can anyone recommend a
freeware program with a preview?

Thanks... Fred

You don't need an add-on to do this.
On the Explorer toolbar, click "Organize", select "Layout" then "Preview
Pane" All you need to do now is resize the window so that you can see
the preview details.
Job done.
