Well, the question is , if I have SAMBA, what are this kernel options
for?
or if I use the kernel options, do I still need SAMBA?,
or if the kernel options are set, how do I use SAMBA with these
options set?
I have already configured SAMBA in another network and it works well,
but recently i found out this options in configuring kernel.

The one we had for our team is a Lacie. This is the one that had major
issues.
I've since retired it to NTFS only, but I had created an ext3

I don't recall ever running fdisk to create a partition. Just

Converting Windows Software Raid 5 to Linux Software Raid 5

Even if your guess is incorrect, why would you even want to keep the
Windows RAID around? It's probably better to start over from scratch.
To that end, you need to back up your important data somehow and restore
once you have linux installed. If you don't currently have a backup
solution, you should really have one anyway, so now's a good time to
implement one and test it.

Want to try Linux--how to partition WinXP disk w/o losing data.

Posted: 17 Apr 2007 04:08 PM PDT


I'll 2nd that as thats what I did, but first make sure you defrag the drive
a few times, then put the ubuntu CD in and reboot. Once you have rebooted
you can have the choice to install Ubuntu over the whole disk or create in
free space. GParted the partition application opens up if you select free
space and you can reduce the size of the initial partition and create a new
one.

Backup your data and have the WinXP disc handy, just in case things go
wrong. Fingers crossed.

Try this appending "init=/bin/bash" to the kernel boot line.

This should give you a bash shell very early before anything in rc

rw to change the passwd. BTW don't rely on mount since it will give
you bad info about mounted partitions.

Kimi,
OK, don't get confused about Duration time and Work time - they are two
separate entities in Project. Duration is the time span (normally
measured in working days between the task Start and Finish) and Work,
(normally expressed in hours), is the amount of effort one or more
resources will need to complete the task. If a resource is assigned to
work on the task 100%, then Work hours WILL equal Duration hours.

You may or may not want a fixed duration type task, it depends on
whether the task is effort driven or not. Let's assume you do want a
fixed duration task, that can be set in one of two ways. If you want all
your tasks to be fixed duration (the default is fixed units, i.e. fixed
resource assignment allocation) go to Tools/Options/Schedule tab and
change the "Default task type". If you only want a particular task to be
fixed duration, select the task and hit the Task Information icon or
menu item. On the Advanced tab change the "Task Type" and uncheck the
"effort driven" box next to it.

Once the above is done, enter the 30 days (I'll assume you want working
days instead of calendar days) into the Duration field. Assign your
resource or resources. Then in the Work field, (you will probably need
to add that to whatever view you are using), enter 40 hours. You should
see the resource allocation change to 17% in the Resources Name field.
Now you have a task of 30 days duration with an assigned resource who
will spend 40 hours sometime during that 30 day period working on the
task.

Hope this helps.

Redistribution of effort on adding new resource

Posted: 04 Oct 2005 02:44 AM PDT


Amit wrote: 

To come up with a formula, I'd have to do a series of these types of
events, then figure out how project is doing the calculation. But when
I first looked at the numbers, without having Project available, it
looked reasonable because when you added the third resource, the work
of the other 2 decreased in "reasonable proportion", as did the
duration (roughly a third). Which is what I expect with an effort
driven task.
How project handles these things doesn't always make sense to many of
us. But once you understand what it does, it's usually fairly
predictable, given you know the "rules" by which it operates.
Hope this helps in your world.

Licensing Info

Posted: 03 Oct 2005 11:35 PM PDT

You need an SQL licence for every user/device (depending on licencing mode) that derives information from the SQL Server.
In your case it is dependent on the hardware configuration of the SQL server what would be the best value
to either aquire between 70 and 120 more SQL CALS "or" switch over to a per processor licence.

This is a concept called multiplexing and it has been discussed here and resides in the google groups archives now.

http://groups.google.ca/group/microsoft.public.project.server/browse_frm/thread/6b0345a602ddd789/2e792e5a4f02f654?q=multiplexing+&rnum=1&hl=en#2e79 2e5a4f02f654

Two Things

1.) Most Microsoft people have not known much about PS licencing.
2.) Watch out for buying SQL 2000 and then needing to go to 2005 when your business application or Project Server
suggests it. You don't want to have to buy twice in a short period of time so you may want to consider a software assurance
situation.

BCWP Incorrect Summary Tasks

Posted: 02 Oct 2005 07:49 PM PDT

hi Brad,

I applied manual calculations and the BCWP should be 19,868 as you have
stated.
However we still need to cosider the Duration and the timephased costs.

Note that Project calculates BCWP at the task level differently than at the
assignment level. See:

http://www.ksu.edu/InfoTech/epm/training/msproject2002/19%20Earned%20Value.doc.

Spell check issues using different language in Word 2013

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 02:26 PM PDT

Hello,

I installed Office 2013 for a user and now her spell check isn't working properly.  She does translation for the company.  So when she goes into Review > Language > Set Proofing Language and chooses Spanish (Mexico) then presses the Spell check button, it reverts back to English and shows every Spanish word as incorrectly spelled.  You click on the bottom for the language, choose the Spanish (Mexico) and it correctly identifies the word and moves onto the next one, only to switch back to English again.  She has pages of translation to do, trying to correct it one word at a time will not work for her.  We've tried making the Spanish (Mexico) as her default and it still switches back to English every time.

Tried it on Windows 7/Windows 8.  Tried it on a computer that has only ever had Office 2013, same issue.  So it isn't related to the upgrade or the OS.

Is this just a bug issue or is there a fix?

thanks!

Word 2010 - VBA Code to Clear All Content Control Checkboxes

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 01:25 PM PDT

Hello,

I have been searching around quite a bit and still have not found a solution. I am looking for VBA code that will clear all Word 2010 Content Control checkboxes on a document. The document is saved as a .docm, and this is the solution that will work for us as a template will not. I already have the code to clear all of the Text Form Field areas, and I found code to clear Form Field checkboxes, but I just haven't had any luck finding code to clear Content Control checkboxes. The Content Control checkboxes are definitely what we are looking to use. 

Here is the code I found to reset Form Fields, but how can it be modified to instead clear all Content Control checkboxes?

P.S. In case it matters, there are a number of these checkboxes located within a table for design purposes.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide!

Sub setcheck()

Dim f As FormField

For Each f In ActiveDocument.FormFields

If f.Type = wdFieldFormCheckBox Then

f.CheckBox.Value = True

Exit For

End If

Stop Save Prompt Showing Up For Macros

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 08:03 AM PDT

Here's an overview of what I'm trying to do and what I've accomplished:

A client of ours has a letterhead macro that they need to change every once in a while. What I would like to do is have one version that I can change centrally and then share with everyone else. Clients are not technology oriented so automated is a must.

What I've done:

I created a blank document, applied the required macro to the document, saved it as a .DOTM (macro-enabled template) and popped it into the %appdata%\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP folder. When I open up Word, this automatically makes the macro available and everything works properly.

The Problem:

When I go to close word, it asks me if I want to save changes to the macro .DOTM. I need this pop-up to go away so that clients aren't confused by it (trust me, they will be).

Word Merge and repeating records

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 05:07 AM PDT

I have an Excel file with 100 records. I would like to create address labels, using the Excel records, in a Word document.

I create the labels (Avery 5161) and connect the Excel file. Of course, I populate the document with the fields, so that the labels look like:

«Fname» «Lname»

«Street»

«CityStateZip»

The label to the right (second label, counting across) looks like:

«Next Record»«Fname» «Lname»

«Street»

«CityStateZip»

Each preceeding label is the same as the second. This takes up one page.

When I run the merge, though, the first page is correct; then I go to the second page. The first label on the second page is the same as the second label on the first page. The first label on the third page is the same as the second label on the second page, and so on.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you.

Full Page Images. MS standard advice doesn't work.

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 03:19 AM PDT

Per MS's standard advice, to get Word (2007) to print a full-page image (on page 1; edge to edge; disabled headers & footers) a user must set the vertical and horizontal page options  to "Page" and set the "Different first page" option in Page Layout. Simple. But "simple" doesn't work. Other advice says to set the header and footer margins to zero; but that too doesn't work. I've tried everything I can think of. Even reinstalled my printer driver; but, despite Print Preview showing the full page image as it should be, the actual print comes out with the image starting at the header margin (or, oddly enough a bit below that, and running off the bottom of the page. It is also reduced horizontally. Adding oddity to oddity, it properly ignores the footer. Why then, can't it ignore the header?

When I tried to reset the default program to Office Word 2013 the Word icon does not appear in the list.

I have tried using "Open with" and Set defaults in control panel

365 seems to have installed correctly as it is possible to open all the applications seperately.

I have read through loads of threads on this issue, but noone seems to answer why the Word icon does not appear in the list..

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Pasting text from web into Word 2010 always produces numbered list

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 05:39 PM PDT

When I cut and past several paragraphs of formatted text from a web browser into a Word 2010 document, it always automatically formats it as a numbered list, unless I choose "Keep Text Only".  This happens even when the source text is not a numbered list.

I often don't want to "Keep Text Only," however -- when the source text has some words italicized, for example.

If I choose "Merge Formatting" or "Keep Source Formatting", then the I'm stuck with the numbers -- even though the original source text was not a numbered list.

I've tried changing every option I can think of (for example, in the Smart Formatting dialog, or in the other copy options), but to no avail.  Any idea why this is happening, or how to correct it?

I recently got Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus, and everything went fine during the installation process. I tested everything and it was working fine, until I noticed that every single application - be it Powerpoint, Word, Outlook, Excel or whatnot, it always crashes within a short period of time after opening it. The error message is always the same - that is, "Microsoft (application name) has stopped working", and it gives the the options of either waiting, closing or restarting it. It has been making me lose small amounts of data every time it hangs and it is very hard to keep working like this. How can I fix this?

Edit: I have already tried disabling hardware acceleration and updating my video driver. It has not worked.

Windows/Office versions needed for Handwriting Input on Tablet

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 07:51 AM PDT

We are considering buying Surface Pro 3 tablets for our office. We have technicians collecting data (currently on paper), and our templates are in Excel, so we are looking to transition over to using the tablets for data entry. One of the things on our must-have list is to be able to use the stylus in Word and Excel (especially Excel) to handwrite in notes and have them converted to text. From what I have seen, Windows 8/8.1 with the newer versions of Office has a  "handwriting input" option as part of the onscreen keyboard. This handwriting input function - is this a part of the Windows OS or a part of Office? And which versions? There are so many versions of Windows between 8 and 8.1 and RT and many different versions of Office, I am worried we will end up with the wrong combo! I believe our IT department is going to load Windows 8.1 full (not RT) and Office 2010 on the tablets, and I am worried it won't have the handwriting input option in Word/Excel. If anyone can confirm this for me and let me know the configurations we would have to have to ensure we can use the handwriting input I would be so appreciative!!! Thanks!

You would think so, but Microsoft Office Update check authenticity
before update. Everything is "genuine."

IIRC I originally purchased Office 97 Professional from CompUSA.
Microsoft had a promo where you could purchases Office 2k for a
discounted amount due to the pending release of Office 2k which I opted
to do. Bottom line is if these are not the original disk, then someone
other than myself has done a disk shuffle.

Scripting product key code

Posted: 06 Aug 2007 02:54 PM PDT

I could not see anything other than a MST creator and the Custom Maintenance
Wizard. I can use the MST creator, but I would have to create one for every
machine which is something that I do not want to do because it is more work
than just entering the key.

The rules vary. Some OEM copies of OFFICE (Office .... NEVER Windows)
do allow multiple installations. You just have to read the EULA for the
particular variant that you have. There are a couple dozen different
EULAs, they all have their own T&Cs (terms and conditions).

Generally,

The OEM master discs / license packs are sold as sets, not individually.

How many computers can you install microsoft office 2007 on?

Answer:

Using a retail copy - Only one computer at a time.
Using and OEM - Just that one PC. If that PC dies, Office is supposed to
die with it.

WinXP Pro shutdown message "End program - WMS idle"

Posted: 04 Aug 2007 04:02 PM PDT

I was able to prevent the problem by modifying the search list Desktop Search
uses to index. It was indexing all of the other profiles on the local drive
and the Windows subdirectory of his own profile. Once I excluded the other
profiles and the later folder (and it's child objects) I was able to log
off/reboot/shutdown without issue.

On a side note I noticed that Desktop Search has also started indexing
Outlook Express even though he didn't use it. Since it was installed with
the OS and he didn't need it indexed I uninstalled it. I'm not sure if it
was a catalyst as well, but I doubt it.

Installing Enterprize Edition

Posted: 04 Aug 2007 08:40 AM PDT

Thanks for the reply - I have, however found a reference to the problem on
Microsoft's site. It seems it is a known problem caused by the Office Web
Components. They say that the 2003 Web Comonents should be uninstalled
first, then instal 2007. The problem I still have, however, is that the OWC
does not show up in the add/remove programs list. The relevant page at
Microsoft is:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/products/FX101633871033.aspx#1 (under
'Setup')
Cheers,

You should be contacting the IT person at the company that you have used to
procure this Enterprise version. On top of that your Office 2003 is also a
Enterprise version.
Your companies IT person or the one that holds the Volume License can answer
you since they are the ones that own this Volume License version of MS
Office Enterprise
