AskWoody LoungerWell loungers, I was able to figure it out! These are ‘hidden’ files, folders, icons, etc. How they became that was is still a puzzle to me, however, I can now correct the problem. Thanks for those of you who viewed my query.

AskWoody LoungerHi Catharine, thanks for responding,
The gridlines are what appear when you first open a book yes, naked you could say; no formatting whatsoever.
These gridlines just seem to go with a ‘cut’ or ‘copy’ of the cell, then when you print the document the lines aren’t there.
Just don’t know how to replace them again.Jason

AskWoody LoungerGeez, you’re absolutely right!!! On the CD, it says, “PC DVD-ROM”! What now?? The first Majesty disc I have there’s no mention of that at all.

AskWoody LoungerThanks StuartR
With a family of 6 and relatively new to ‘this’ Word2007 (formerly a user of Word2003 for many years) I just couldn’t find where to look.Jason

AskWoody LoungerHans,
Thanks, I did find that I had ‘enabled’ the option of not allowing the deletion in the system policy after all.

AskWoody LoungerDave,
Thanks! After consideration of Microsoft’s infamous nature of duplicating/triplecating the same items to control the same things, I believe you’re right.
All your help previous well appreciated.

AskWoody LoungerDave/Joe,
This is turning out to be much more than I ever expected!Does it seem like it’s worth the effort?
Here’s MY path to the area that you’re talking about And you’re right -again-. What can we do now?? Help??Jason

AskWoody LoungerJoe,
That did it! At first, was expecting NOT to see the pages at all listed under the ‘View History’ option, however, when I right clicked, lo and behold the choice of “Delete” was not available.
Thanks very much for you help.Jason

AskWoody LoungerOk Joe
This gets me the deletion of the Delete Browsing History option from the ‘Tools’ drop-down list, however, I still have the “History” option in the Favorites Centre drop-down. I see hundreds of choices in the area of Group Policy Editor but I’m unable to determine which one to choose.
Help??

AskWoody LoungerThanks Joe,
This sounds somewhat similar to the path for enable/disable the selected tabs in the Internet Options dialog box.
I’ll give this a try.

AskWoody LoungerThanks, never thought ’bout that one. I have hidden the ‘General’ and ‘Security’ tabs from the Tools/Internet Options dialog box without any difficulty. I found that that was the most likely place for the user to go. But now I have two more areas to contend with. Can we go ‘deeper’ to find a way to do this? Both the Tools drop-down and the Favorites History??

AskWoody LoungerThanks Hans
I’ll review the information that you’ve provided and give it a try. If problems arise, I’ll post.

AskWoody LoungerHans,
Many thanks,
My problem in this area at least has been solved; it was that ‘Alt+Enter’ that I didn’t have.
