Sometimes another slot is all it takes...tried moving it to another? John Payne

IMHO you have a hardware problem...and mhughes was correctimundo in saying HP tech owes you one! John Payne

Surely you've tried the shortcuts to shutdown/restart a few threads down? IF they don't work...suspect run32dll as a culprit and try replacing it. Just imagining what I'd try if faced with a similar thorny crown...and thisisit! PLEASE do let us know (translate:DOCUMENT) the fix. John Payne

I'm making a die database (aluminum extrusion mfr.) by importing a comma delimited (.txt) file from information contained in my drawing block. Am a newbie to Excel, but I've finally gotten cells formatted like I need them. The first row is headers and my imports come in below. My current...

Best work-around I can think of is to go to the profiles and edit the menu. Sure can remember that happening in the dim past...have you applied any of the service packs? Seems like the later ones may have fixed it. <p> <br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br>
