Click on one of the items and drag it up or down with the mouse to where ever on the menu you want it to go.

Alternatively, right click the mouse and the menu will show an item called “Sort by Name”.

Is it possible that the user is in the habit of hitting Ctrl-S to regularly save the document, or Ctrl-A to select all of the document, but is hitting Ctrl-P instead? (Unlikely, as P is at the other end of the keyboard and the Print Dialog box intervenes – but just a thought).

It’s a bit time-consuming. but the grammar checker can find single spaces at the end of sentences and replace with a double space on an instance by instance basis. Look under Tools>Options>Spelling and Grammar, then “Writing Style” and check “Spaces beteen Sentences”.

Go to Control Panel and see if you have an item called Disk Detector. If so, open it and click on Advanced. Find the box called Spin Down in which you can set the time the CD/DVD will spin before stopping. This may solve your problem.

I agree with Phil. I don’t think that OSA does anything useful these days – it was probably of value in the olden days when computers were slower and needed all the help they could get.

Ok, Charlotte, I think I understand. I have been having come problems with my Userpic and tried to change it to something else this afternoon. On my screen, however, I still see my old Userpic, not the new one.

Interesting that apparently you can see the new one and I can’t.

Where the new one came from I don’t know – I found it in a list of graphics somewhere – but it sure looks like your Dust Puppy.

Hi Charlotte,

Thanks, but what’s a “Dust Puppy”? Am I missing something here?

The OSA9.exe file does the following:

* Initializes Automation

* Initializes some of the common fonts installed by Office 2000

* Handles certain commands (New Office Document, Find Fast, Open Office Document, Help, and Screen Saver) on the Start menu and on the Office Shortcut Bar

* Displays Microsoft Outlook notifications when the Office Assistant is available .

You can use Microsoft Image Composer to rotate a jpg image and then copy and paste into Word.

Unless there is a good reason why you want to use OL97, why not create an e-mail account with Hotmail or Yahoo. That way you can remain totally anonymous.

Do you mean the Euro symbol is shown but you can’t select it, or is the symbol not shown at all?

For what it’s worth: on our machines running Win98 Second Edition, the symbol can be selected from Regional settings.

Are you running Second Edition?
