Different Detail Columns for Each Folder Tree

I am running XP sp2 and I would like to be able to set the default
columns for some folder to include various details about audio files
but in other folders I want details about photos and in yet other
folders I want details about documents.

It seems to me that I naturally have classifications of types of files
I want to see and the columns that matter when I am viewing that kind
of folder.

Audio Files - Duration, Bit Rate, Title, Author.
Photo Files - Dimensions, Date Taken, Camera, Shutter Speed, Aperture.
Documents - Author, Keywords, Subject

Is there a way to set a folder and it sub folders to contain specific
columns without having to apply it to the entire system? In my
systems, I usually have tree structures for Photos, Music, Docs where
they are not mixed together. So I could use this if I could go to the
highest level a set the columns and apply it to all of the children.

This seems like it should be simple, but Ican't find a way to do it.

Thanks,
Thom

Control Panel > Folder Options > View and scroll down to Remember each
folder's view settings and check the box. This will save the different
settings for each of the folder views you select.
