AskWoody LoungerI just answered all of the questions in the Wizard with lies, and then went in and then imported the *.iaf files from my floppie. Seems to have worked.

AskWoody LoungerI will be getting a big, fast machine, so I don’t expect any hardware limitations.

AskWoody LoungerNo network, single machine operating in my home, so security is no big deal. I run Office applications with substantial Access applications. Also internet stuff, including VoIP. My main problem has always been stability. I don’t want to continue the hang-ups and crashes.

AskWoody LoungerIt was the “text boundaries” check box. I don’t know how I did that.
Thanks for finding a very dumb mistake.

AskWoody LoungerHere is a file bases one of the templates. Please take a look.

WSgsmith
AskWoody LoungerThanks for the comments. I cannot select nor delete the frame, if frame is the correct term. It is in two of my templates, but I ended up having to delete the template to get rid of the frame!

AskWoody LoungerMy stupid mistake. I had included an “s” in the http part of the address. It all makes sense now. Thank you for your help.

AskWoody LoungerI added Yahoo to the Trusted Sites list, but no help. I looked at the security certificate, and it is dated 8/7/2000 to 8/8/2001. In other words, it is expired. How do you renew these things?

AskWoody LoungerGreat! Thanks to all for the help.

AskWoody LoungerThanks for the comments. Could you expand on your thinking of why the Windows XP Pro and not the Personal? It is, after all, a home PC with no multiprocessors nor nets.

AskWoody LoungerI quote from a footnote on an IBM Thinkpad spec sheet – “Software provided with a machine or separately purchased as a software bundle may differ from its retail version and may not include user manuals or all program functionality.” This makes me nervous. Your comments, please.

AskWoody LoungerThanks. What are the differences between Professional and Normal versions? I believe that Windows has the same distinctions with a Professional and Normal version. What is that about?
-
WSgsmith
AskWoody LoungerAll very clear. I will do it that way. Thank you very much for your help (and patience).

AskWoody LoungerI assume that you recommend that I copy the registry to the HD, and then back-up the copy, rather than back it up directly. Sounds logical. Thank you for the comments. How do I export the registry to the HD?
