How do I get my screensaver to come on when I leave my computer

Posted: 13 Jul 2005 03:06 PM PDT

Hi Dottie,

Screen savers are often .SCR file types, which
you can search for using Start=>Search/Find.

Once you've found the screen saver you wish to use
you can create a shortcut to it and place
it on a toolbar or on your desktop. Right click the
shortcut and you can assign a keyboard shortcut that
you can use to activate it when you walk away from your
computer.

Remove Markup in office 2003

Posted: 11 Jul 2005 06:46 AM PDT

It's not that I want to disable the feature, but default changes made in old
office documents are shown, I would like to not set the feature by default.

Transform not reflected in Add/Remove Off2003?

Posted: 11 Jul 2005 03:41 AM PDT

Hi Gerry,

Short version is that the 'intelligent setup', if
left on its own will generally believe that when you
update from a prior version of Office (MST files only
apply to a first install of a product) that if you/users
have set things up they probably want to continue to work
the same way, so their settings, rather than the Office
defaults, or the ones you've set as 'new user' defaults
are migrated (carried forward).

If you use the 'do not migrate' choice for an individual
element or a tree branch, or use the settings value of
NOFEATURESTATEMIGRATION =1
for the transform you're telling the installer to replace
the user's current choices, features, settings with what
you're selecting as part of standardization in the upgrade.

Another case where you may see Add/Remove programs not matching
is if your ini file mentions a different MST.

=======

OK, I've looked into it in some detail.

It turns out that Add/Remove programs was correctly finding my transform (I
can see from the log file), but for some reason the feature list in the UI
was showing Office defaults instead of those set in the transform.

I created a new transform, and this time ticked the box "Do not migrate
previous installation State" on screen 7 of 24. I then chose to apply it to
the whole tree.

Reinstalling office on the client machine, and going into "Add/Remove
Programs", now correctly shows the feature list chosen in the transform.

I don't really understand "Do not migrate previous installation State", does
it mean from a previous version of Office or a previous install of THIS
version of office? The help file seems unhelpful.

LOOKING FOR A .MSP FILE FOR OFFICE 03 STD.

Posted: 08 Jul 2005 05:59 PM PDT

I am making progress.

I can now begin the setup and installation. However once the installation
begins about 30 seconds in it says there was an error installing.

So with the help of you and a couple of others I am making ground. But can
not fully install the std edtion.

So I beleive there is still stuff in there from the trial version and/or
updates after trial version was installed.

When I run the Office cleaner it tells me these files still exist....
So I complete the cleaner and run it again and they are still there, I have
tried manual deletion and the computer will not let me delete.

Microsoft Office Removal Wizard -- List of files to be removed:

"Microsoft Office 2002 AND VS.NET"
C:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\Speech\1033\SPCPLUI.DLL
C:\program files\Common Files\SpeechEngines\Microsoft\SPCOMMON.DLL


I have attempted installation 5-7 times and it stops at the same point. I
have sent error reports to microsoft when prompted but do desire a quicker
solution.

Thanx again for all of your help thus far, please if you have more thoughts
or info contact me or reply thanx again.

Office 2003 viewers silent install

Hi Stefano,

If you extract the viewer files to an empty folder then
run setup from that folder to deploy it do you still get
this?

========= 
Hi
I tried to quietly install the office 2003 viewers using the /Q option
but it still prompts the users for EULA acceptance and destination dir.
How can I install them really quietly ?

Thanks

can't open network files

Posted: 08 Jul 2005 05:32 AM PDT

Office 2000 verifies the status of each mapped drive connection when
selecting the Look In drop down, thus causing a noticeable delay in the
initial display of the dialog.
Wordpad, Internet Explorer uses the status maintained by the Operating
System, which allows these to display quickly.

How to make Word the default HTML editor

Posted: 08 Jul 2005 12:29 AM PDT

Hi SeaMain,

Can't tell you if Firefox has a setting to influence
this, or if it may be related to the sequence of
installs. The Office apps (depending on version) will
normally write themselves in as options for Internet
Explorer in Tools=>Internet Options=>Programs.

Check the value in this registry key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Default HTML Editor
It has subkeys including a shell extension.

Have you tried running a repair reinstall of Office
with IE active?


===============
<<"SeaMaid" <com> wrote in message news:phx.gbl...
Both these boxes are already checked.

- Check if Office is the default editor for Web pages created in Office
- Check if Word is the default editor for all other Web pages

Anything else I can try to get Word included in Internet Options as HTML
editor? Would this have anything to do with Firefox being the default
browser? I changed Internet Explorer back to the default browser to see if
that might make a difference but it has not. >>

Thanks Gupta. Before I got your reply I had already figured out to put my
"Office" disc in and took the option in the menu to "repair" rather than
install. This was successful. Thanks again for taking the time to reply.

Office 2003 and GPO configuration

Hi Bobby,

To add to the reply from VS, I'm not sure I'm clear on
what action you're looking to take as far as using Group
Policies for your scenario.

The .ADM files are not edition specific (they basically
write registry entries), but OEM editions of Office
don't support managed deployment from an Office Admin Point.

========
<<"Bobby Phillips" <Bobby microsoft.com> wrote in message

Does anyone know if the .adm files to configure office 2003 only work on the
oem version or is it just the open license version. Any help would be
appreciated.

I fail to see what this has to do with Microsoft Office.

But the answer is "no". If you want Windows and/or Office with a Spanish
GUI, then you must /buy/ it/them in Spanish and in the case of Windows,
perform a clean installation. You will require a full licence of each.

You could have found this information yourself had you bothered to STFW.
