Mark, Thanks for the quick response. Don't go out of your way for a "mucky"
workaround. If the link is handy great. If not so be it, I'll work on another
solution.

Neil --

After further investigation, it turnes out that Eric did indeed get these
emails, but Outlook 2003 correctly put them into his Junk Email Folder --
however, since Laura is on Outlook 2000, she was getting them directly into
her inbox. I think our next step will be to install the Exchange Intelligent
Message Filter as well as get our people onto Outlook 2003 (we use Citrix, so
this should be pretty easy).

Exchange 5.5 ok on native mode win2k?

Posted: 13 Feb 2005 08:19 PM PST

You should be fine switching to native mode AD since Exchange 5.5 is sitting
on a Windows 2000 server and the site has no intention of supporting NT4

second line automatically indents

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 02:15 PM PDT

I'm writing something on Microsoft Word 2003. The first line is indented, and when I continue typing, the next line automatically indents too. If I backspace the indent, it gets rid of the space too. I tried typing something without an indent in the first line, but the second line still gets indented automatically. 

How can I fix this?

Prompting User To Select Files Via File Open Dialog - Options?

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 01:32 PM PDT

Hi all,

I am writing a macro where I want the user to multi-select a bunch of templates which I would then run through and process.

Two things:

1) not sure I am using the right/best object to do this (I thought there might be a .FileOpen() method off of .Application but there was not)

2) not able to set the dialog to default to showing just templates

Here is the code as far as I got it.  Too bad the Word 2007 help file does not make it easy to get to the enumeration list for this - could not find it!  (for ListIndex).

dim loFileDialog as FileDialog

Set loFileDialog = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFilePicker)

' set a new title
loFileDialog.Title = "Choose templates to update"

' set the default type of files to show; NOTE: this does not seem to do anything (I found it in some sample code)
' loFileDialog.FiltersIndex = 2

' fire it's show method to get it working
lnUserChoice = loFileDialog.Show()

' process the result.

Thanks,
Albert Gostick

Recent folders incorrectly redirecting for network folders

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 11:23 AM PDT

Hi, 

I'm having an issue with the recent folders in Office 2013. Every time I click on recent folder it opens the wrong folder in the file explorer. For example when I open My Documents it correctly opens to my documents folder; however, when I click on Desktop it opens my documents folder. When I copy the link for my desktop folder it is the correct directory. This may be because these folders are stored/synced to the network since when I try local folders it works perfectly fine.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
This issue occurs both with the Open and Save as functions. 

Thanks!

Word 2013 Printing to One Note reverses print order

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 01:29 AM PDT

When I print using Word 2013 it defaults to printing in reverse order (without selecting the option in the printer properties) which is great when printing a physical copy on my inkjet printer.
I use the Print to OneNote 2013 function often (to a single page) and the problem is that Word 2013 also prints this in reverse. I can't find an option anywhere to turn this off. 
I am currently printing to PDF (which also reverses) then print to OneNote with that reverse option, which while do-able, is very annoying.

Is there anyway around this?

Cheers

Office 2013 prints some files but not others - prints intermittently or selectively (Windows 8)

Posted: 15 Aug 2013 08:34 PM PDT

I just got a Windows 8 computer with Office 2013 and some of my Office files will print but not others. For example, I can print several Word or Powerpoint files but will open a particular file and it will not print at all. My laser printer starts to hum and make noise like a successful print job (with a slightly different noise) and then does not print. It does not show up as an error and it will not show up as a job in Queue. There are no errors, my printers lights up, starts to make noise and then will not print.  This can even happen for certain pages withing a document. I have a Powerpoint files where the 1st page will not print but the rest of the file will print.

I had to print an important Word doc today that would not print. I saved it as a PDF and then it printed successfully on the first try. I have hundreds of different office files and most are printing fine but many just will not print.

Any ideas.

UserForm Template to Create Multiple Documents

Posted: 15 Aug 2013 04:10 PM PDT

I created a template that has several documents within the Template.  The template has a Userform that has input fields to populate the documents.  We were able to submit the document as a single document.  Now there has been a change and each document must be submitted individually.Let me explain more clearly if I can:

Template1 is a 12 page document template with a userform to populate the fields.
Pages 1-4 of Template1 is Document1, pages 5-7 is Document2, pages 8-10 is Document3, and pages 11-12 is Document4.

We used to be able to send Template1 and everything was OK, the receiving site would break down the documents individually.  But now, the receiving site is requiring us to submit each document separately.  So Document1, Document2, Document3, and Document4 must be sent individually.

Each Document1-Document4 has similar information in them (i.e. Name, phone number, address, date of birth).  It would be a real pain to have to create 4 different document templates and input the same sets of data 4 times.  It is also a pain to cut/paste each document and then same separately.

Here is my question...finally.  Is there a way to create a template where we only have to input the data set one time in the UserForm and all 4 separate documents will be created from the information?

What property do you set in a content control so that when you click placeholder text, it is highlighted then replaced with the first keystroke?

Posted: 15 Aug 2013 04:01 PM PDT

I have three content controls in a table, each in a different cell. In the first one when I click inside the placeholder text, it is all selected and is replaced with the firsts keystroke. This is the behavior I want.

The other content controls when the placeholder is clicked, the insertion point simply moves inside the placeholder text and any keystrokes you type are simply added to the placeholder text. What am I doing wrong? I checked Properties and all content controls seem to have identical properties. I know if I select the title tab, I will get the desired behavior, but that's not really what I want to user to have to do--too hard to explain. All thoughts welcomed. I noticed just now that the controls that are working as desired have the Group button active--see the screen shot at the end.

Unable to retain a split Excel spreadsheet imbedded into a Word file

If once upon a time there was an older version of Norton Antivirus installed
on the computer, then the Office Plugin from the older version could still be
registered in Windows even if the older version has been uninstalled. Search
for the OFFICEAV.DLL file on the hard drive (include system and hidden
files/folders). If you find it, note the folder where it is located, and use
the "regsvr32 /u" method described in

Try stopping(not disable) all of Norton's service in services.msc and
then reboot.

It is also possible the Office 2000 is overwriting msjava. If you
have msjava downloaded anywhere. Reinstall this. Then go to windows
update and download the current msjava version

If that does not work try downloading sun java 1.50 .

to wind up with bugs on a few oddball motherboards, and believe me, a lot of
servers have *strange* motherboards.
 

Submit a bug report at fedora.redhat.com, and include the actual
motherboard. I went through this sort of fun and games with old DEC, I mean
Compaq, I mean HP this week, systems and finally gave up on the old pieces
of dreck.


Is there a free Linux OS?

One good central point is http://www.linuxiso.org. This has links to CD-R
image files for most of the major distributions. (A handful aren't
available gratis, though.) If you know which distribution you want to
use, you can also try its own Web site. Knowing which to use is the tough
problem, though. I've got some suggestions on my own Web site:

problem of PCMCIA NIC in kernel 2.6

I don't know. "make modules_install" is what you do at the *end* of doing a
make with a new kernel, but I can't tell from your notes if you built a
whole new kernel, or just built up some modules and tried to load them by
hand without putting them in /lib/modules/{kernel-name}, or if you
accidentally wound up with two kernel modules of the same name in
/lib/modules/{kernel-name}, or what.

How did you build your modules? As part of a new kernel that you then
successfully rebooted with?
 
kernel 

Good luck. I do hope that you *are* giving each new kernel a different name
in your Makefile, to avoid any conflicts between old and new kernels and old
and new modules.

No it doesn't! This is a particular "feature" of one shell - bash, and
it is modified by the option huponexit.

The shell exits by default upon receipt of a SIGHUP. Before exiting,
it resends the SIGHUP to all jobs, running or stopped. Stopped jobs
are sent SIGCONT to ensure that they receive the SIGHUP. To prevent
the shell from send* ing the signal to a particular job, it should be
removed from the jobs table with the disown builtin (see SHELL
BUILTIN COMMANDS below) or marked to not receive SIGHUP using disown
-h.

If the huponexit shell option has been set with shopt, bash sends a
SIGHUP to all jobs when an interactive login shell exits.

You can unset the bash option (or simply not set it), use disown, nohup,
whatever. In general, processes do NOT die when their parent dies!
That would be crazy.
 

Well, that is, in their own code, they "go daemon" in the standard
way. Fork, cd /, close all descriptors, fork again.

 

Not necessary. Java will launch daemon processes! The java thread library
has special calls/options to do so.
 

What forst problem? And no, you do not so understand, because there is
no implication that parent/child will cause the child to die when the
parent does! That's crazy. There is a special setting in the bash
shell that will enable that, but it is not normal.
 

Well, that's nothing really to do with it - they may be started with &
but that's only a habit of the programmer. Honest daemons will go
daemon by themselves however you start them, with & or without.

 

Nonsense. Java's process/thread methods cater specifically for all
this! Java is a parallel processing language.
 

What "concurrency problem"? It really sounds like you want to read a
book on java threads.
 

Of course. That's normal. "Wait" on the other.

Q: boot option to NOT load module?

Posted: 07 Nov 2004 01:43 PM PST

ok, but how would I edit /etc/modules.conf if i cannot boot any more?

Anyway - I am able to boot again. It did boot when I removed the
adaptec-card, then I cleaned it from quite some dust, re-inserted and
voila, module loads fine as if nothing had happened.

still - thanks for your hint.

Cheap 1u Rack

There are plenty at places like www.pcsforeveryone.com. But for very little
more than the price of the rack, you might be able to snap up a fully
equipped 2 year old 1U server at a hardware auction or business auction, or
even an electronics swapfest. I know I've gotten rid of some where it would
have cost much more in man-hours and components to rebuild them rather than
just to buy a new one.

Olympus D-540Z camera:

Try just plugging the camera into your machine's USB port, with
everthing powered on. I have a little Samsung Digimax 300 which
I plug into a laptop running Slackware 9.1, and it's automatically
recognized. Have you tried running "dmesg" just after plugging in
the camera? You should see messages to the effect of "new USB device
detected".
 

Try no software at all. I don't have any, and don't want any.
All I do is plug the camera in, mount it, copy the pictures,
unmount the camera, and unplug it. No problems, and I can do
it as often as I please with none of this rebooting silliness.
 

Seconded.
