AskWoody LoungerI don’t want anyone taking my slides & copying them for their own work.
Protect my PPT/PPS files from any recipient.
They should only be able to play my show & not enter it to access the slides.Thanks

Problem is that the Shockwave Player is a component module of IE.
Not an independent application. What can one do in this case?Ta.

AskWoody LoungerHi,
I managed to solve the problem. When I filled in all the dates for all the tasks – it automatically adjusted the parent tasks’s dates to the correct setting.
Thanks,

AskWoody LoungerAugust 14, 2001 at 4:58 am in reply to: Password Not Saved in Login Dialogue Box (IE5 & Win98) #537247Hi,
In my case the remember password box pops up every time!!
This is different from the AutoComplete dialogue box.
To see an e.g. of what I’m referring to, pls. goto http://www.myrealbox.com & click the top left hyperlink to login to your a/c.Thanks,

AskWoody LoungerCheers.
These are mainly Server based solutions.
Is there any mechanism for doing this from a normal home PC with client based software.I imagine some neat little s/w exists where I just punch in the emails & it does the rest?
Maybe some addon for MSWord?
Thanks,
m.q.

AskWoody LoungerHi,
I am sending to my ISP from a home dialup account.
It’s funny ’cause some ISPs have this setting, others don’t.
Actually I am not spamming people but running a legitimate mailing list.
So HOW does a Home User like myself run a mailing list of many people?? I know that solutions like Yahoo Egroups exist, but they put cheesy banners & you have to pay to remove them.
Thanks,
m.q.

AskWoody LoungerThanks for clarifying that Charles.
Actually my problem is that my Form is protected, but still I am able to insert CR’s into the field. Even though it’s length is restricted.
I placed a 512kb Lotus ScreenCam file on the URL :
http://www.geocities.com/musabqureshi
which shows my problem visually.
I am trying to prevent this so the user MUST fill the cell on 1 line.
Thanks,
m.q.
p.s. the lotus screencam player can also be downloaded from that webpage.

AskWoody LoungerNo sorry, I am referring to normal Word Forms.
Not on-line forms.
Pls. advise me on controlling the form field – i.e. the grey cell with little circles in it (non printing chars.)Thanks,

AskWoody LoungerHi,
IT now report an ISP problem & are aiming to change ISPs!
This red tape procedure could take some time.
Can you do me a favour & email me the file.
If the single file is a problem on either side use WinZip or WinRAR from http://www.winrar.com to split into smaller chunks.My address: mqureshi@gulfstars.com
If you can do this – it’ll save me from a LOT of problems.
Thanks,

AskWoody LoungerHi,
When file browsing using Windows Explorer – via “My Computer” on the Desktop. I am tired of manually setting it to “Auto Arrange” for every single folder I open!
TIA,
