      Go to Tools-Autocorrect-Autoformat As You Type, uncheck Borders.

      Also, if you want it to work sometimes, you can disable it on the fly, if, as soon as you hit return after the line of asterisks, you press backspace once.

      Gary,

      Don’t have time to fully test this right now, but the CommandBars.ActionControl or CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar have some properties (name, tag, caption, etc.) that may do what you are looking for.

    • in reply to: Outlook Express Signatures : Saving them to a file #514207

      If you are using signatures that are TEXT, as opposed to a file, they are stored in the registry.

      Open regedit and find this key: HKEY_CURRENT_USERIdentities{A757ABA0-FFE5-11D2-932D-9A4ED3FD3007}SoftwareMicrosoftOutlook Express5.0signatures

      Note: the really long number will be different for you, but there will not be many to choose from. There is one long number per identity you use.

      Click on the word Signatures, on the left pane, then Registry – Export Registry File from the menu, check the option for Selected Branch only.

      This will save the file under the name you give it, with a REG extension. You can then double click this file to restore your signatures to what they were, prior to saving the reg key. (This would delete any new signatures you have added since)

      If you need more help with the registry, please do not hesitate to ask.

    • in reply to: writing a VBA macro #514147

      I’m sure there are many ways to do this, I tried to make this readable for you:

      Dim iCurValue As Integer
      iCurValue = ActiveCell.Value 'Start at the active cell
          Do While Not IsEmpty(ActiveCell.Offset(3, 0).Value) 'loop while the cell is not blank
      
              ActiveCell.Offset(3, 0).Activate
              iCurValue = iCurValue + ActiveCell.Value
          Loop
      MsgBox "i:" & iCurValue  'show a message box with the value, you could do anything
                               'you want with iCurValue now, such as place it in another cell, etc.
      
    • in reply to: MFC42.DLL File #514139

      Mfc42.dll must be on the system somewhere, most programs, including windows require it. Can you try the find again?

      With your mouse, Goto
      Start->Find->Files or Folders
      Named: XXX
      Look In: Local Hard Drives (or in C:, if you have only one drive)
      Make sure include subfolders is checked
      Click Find Now

      Also, mfc42.dll is backwards compatible, so the win98se version should run ok, just put it in c:windowssystem

      MJ has a much slicker method….thanks

    • in reply to: Outlook – My Shortcuts Bar #1778093

      This settings can be undone by editing the registry, please back up the registry first, and if you are not familiar with registry editing, I can give further instructions.

      Navigate to this key:

      HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftOffice9.0OutlookOptionsNewFolder

      Change the DWORD value for NoShortcutPrompt to 0 to get the prompt back

      Note: This key is only present if you have turned of the message box (it may be present if you set other options as well, but not sure about that)

    • in reply to: Copy/move email from one identity to another #1778092

      You can import from one identity to another (you may need the other identity password, not sure). What you can do is create a folder called Transfer, in each identity, then move any message you wish to transfer to that folder, then, from the New Identity, select Import – Messages, then select the other identity, and import from the transfer folder. Kind of a lot of steps, but it does work.

      Gary, Thanks, you are of course correct; I was trimming down some code, and did not trim enough
