Here’s an adaptation of some MS code, to give you an idea how it is done:

If Selection.Information(wdWithInTable) Then
    Set myRange = Selection.Range
    Set oTable = myRange.Tables(1)
    For Each aCell In oTable.Range.Cells
        mycell = Selection.Range.End - 1
        'You are now at the end marker of the cell(EOC)
        aCell.Range.InsertAfter "EOC"
    Next aCell
        MsgBox "This Macro Is Finished"
Else
    MsgBox "You Are Not In A Table"
End If

The reg hack that worked for me was changing the value to ffffffff (8 f’s, hexadecimal base)

When in the list, use your down arrow key to select the entry, then press delete.

I set up a sample, and I can see the difficulty you are having, there seems to be no good way to search and replace a field including the display text for a hyperlink. I did find a way around it, through a macro. It is rather basic, but it does the job, and can be enhanced to your needs.

Dim hlink As Hyperlink
For Each hlink In Documents(1).Hyperlinks
        If hlink.TextToDisplay = "top" Then
        hlink.Range.Select
        Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=2
        Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend
        If Selection.Text = "o" Or Selection.Text = "O" Then Selection.Text = "|"
        End If
Next hlink

Please note the “Top” and the “o” are case sensitive.

Keely, I’m surprised the www ping did not work. Let’s try another thing, before you change the DNS.

From a command prompt, do:
Ping mail

Write down the ip address it gives you. Then, in your email account, for pop3 and smtp, enter the ip number.

This will do things, first, it bypasses DNS, so if it works, then you know it is a dns issue, and you can leave well enough alone (it won’t be a problem, for the most part), or we can then make the DNS changes.

Two things:
Look here: Computer Name, follow just the part under Computer Names, to be sure both computers have the SAME workgroup name.

Secondly, look at this page, actually a bit more detail than the first I sent you: DCC Step-by-Step Setup For Windows 95/98/2000 — Contents

Follow Section II, and specifically, look at the part: (on your Win2k machine)

First, I strongly agree with Ian, you should NEVER try to edit a DLL, and, even if you were able to edit it, you would probably just crash your computer, or worse.

About your error: Decapi.dll appears to be used by Quicken, if you have Quicken, you may want to check for updates or problems. That said, most MFC42.DLL errors result from an old version of the DLL being on your system.

The first step is to do a file find for MFC42.DLL, and see how many different copies you have. In an ideal system, the newest version will be in C:WindowsSystem. A lot of programs install there own copy in either their program folder, or in Windows System, you really only want one copy, and you want the newest.

So, after the file find, right click each, and select properties, and check the version numbers. Making note of each. Once you find the newest, and after recording your current locations, copy the newest to c:windowssystem. Then, right click all the others, and rename them to something like mfc42.bak. Restart, and see what errors continue.

Start here: Windows 2000 Internet Connection Sharing (Note, the page contains links for the Win 98 / ME setup also).

It is worth noting a few things:
ICS expects your network to be set up a certain way, so the changes you made could be changed again, to accommodate ICS, I strongly recommend writing down all network settings as they exist now in case problems arise.

Second, it would seem you need to run the ICS setup for Win2k connected to Win98, then again, for Win2k connected to WinME, I have not set this up in a dual boot before, but it should work ok.

See the following:

George,
I’ve seen many cases where an overloaded My Documents folder can cause this, even if you are not viewing My Documents. If you have a lot of items, or subfolders in it, try moving them someplace else, temporarily, and rebooting, see if it speeds things up. If it does, you can decide where to put the files/folders permanently.

See if either of these help:

This is a tough error, with no easy answers. Here are some of the more common things done to solve this:

Remove Adobe Acrobat 4.05 if installed.

Remove RealPlayer
Remove Comet Cursor (installed by Real Player)
Find and delete any occurrences of Advert.dll
Follow the steps here: MS KB Q254490

Frequently, when this error occurs in OE, it involves also having multiple identities, if you have more than one, you might want to try just going with one, if possible.

Obviously, if any of these work, you can add the other software back, and then decide how to best deal with it.

I think you need to use caution with a default value of zero for any number field. Although at times appropriate, 0 and null both have their uses, and a null is sometimes helpful. For instance, averaging 1,2,0,0,2 yields 1, but averaging 1,2,null,null,2 yields 1.66.
