    • in reply to: Display: Netscape v. IE #509074

      Under Tools/Internet Options/Security there are options for scripting – maybe that’s it?

    • in reply to: Printing ruled pages. #509028

      How about adding a suitably formatted blank table into your header as a watermark?
      You just need to check your line spacing, top margin etc. were consistent.

    • in reply to: Excel #508987

      I have a similar need, but the security may not be enough for you as any user could go Tools/Options/Show Tabs to navigate to other sheets. (This purely prevents them accidentally entering expense claims onto the wrong sheet.)
      It also depends on the user being correctly logged in with the Application User data being correct.
      This goes in the ‘ThisWorkbook’ sheet in VB:

      Private Sub Workbook_Open()
      un = Left$(Application.UserName, 3)
      If un = “Lei” Then Worksheets(3).Activate: ActiveWindow.DisplayWorkbookTabs = True
      If un = “Ann” Then Worksheets(4).Activate: ActiveWindow.DisplayWorkbookTabs = False
      If un = “Pau” Then Worksheets(2).Activate: ActiveWindow.DisplayWorkbookTabs = False
      If un = “Tin” Then Worksheets(1).Activate: ActiveWindow.DisplayWorkbookTabs = False
      If un = “Sal” Then Worksheets(5).Activate: ActiveWindow.DisplayWorkbookTabs = False
      End Sub

      Tools/Import and Export/Export to a file
      Select Comma Separated Values (Windows)
      Select folder to export from….
      For ease just use the default values and save as C:contacts.csv

      Importing is fairly straighforward following the above and does actually work.

      Note: Unless you have a need to, it is not worth playing with the ‘mapping fields’ option – stick with the default. If you do on the export side, you will have to match it on the import side.

    • in reply to: Excel Macros #1774909

      Tools/macros/Security will allow you to disable the warning by default – if that is what you want ?

      Otherwise,
      You may have deleted the macro but left the module which probably makes Excel believe there is a macro in the worksheet.
      From the VB Editor, in the project viewer, select the Module (probably Module1) then go File/Remove Module1.

    • in reply to: CD Audio Problem #1774897

      Grasping at straws now:

      Control Panel/Multimedia:-
      Does the CD player look like it features in all the right places?

      Start/Programs/Accessories/Multimedia:-
      Does the audio CD player have a manual start and/or do anything?

    • in reply to: Coloured backgrounds for word #1774881

      Using Word2K and working here:
      View/Web layout
      Format/Background and select a colour
      Prints out on a B&W laser as Black on White but you may have to tweak the printer settings if it’s a colour jobbie.

    • in reply to: Attachments to O2K #1774878

      I believe there is a registry tweak for this but what may be more useful would be to add Woody’s PlaceBar available here to which you can add specific folders.
      …and thanks, Woody – one of the best add-ons I’ve come across.

    • in reply to: CD Audio Problem #1774868

      You have got your hard-wired audio link from CD to sound card fitted OK ? (I think some cards have two ‘internal’ inputs).

    • in reply to: Active Desktop has disappeared #1774852

      Apparently Active Desktop did not come with IE5, only IE4 SP2 (not exactly sure of the SP). Looks like you need to uninstall IE5, install IE4, then re-install IE5
      Check the threads here and here for the source of this info. HTH

    • in reply to: Importing from Excel to Outlook contacts #1774848

      Are you exporting as a CSV? If so, formatting should not come into it.
      From memory, export as a CSV then import using the Comma Separated Values (Windows) option.

    • in reply to: My Pictures folder #1774847

      Try:
      If the folder doesn’t exist, create it
      Regedit:
      HYEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerUser Shell Folders and rename the value of My Pictures to the folder you want.
      At least, from Word, you won’t default to My Pictures for inserting a picture.

      (Likewise: I refuse to have My Anything on any PC here)

    • in reply to: Preparing to Install Message when starting Word 2K #1774841

      If you run the set-up I believe you are offered a ‘Repair’ option. Might be worth running that.
      Do you have W2K SP1 installed?

    • in reply to: partioning #1774832

      …then I fear Ghost or a backup may be your only option.
      I assume you wanting to make your system partition bigger rather than a logical drive? Otherwise it may be just as cheap to buy another HD.

    • in reply to: Excel Formula #1774811

      Thanks from me too.
      I must play around with your suggestion.
