Thanks for the info Clayton... however when I arrived at the macro project items tab... there wasn't any kind of TempDDE macro to delete (I even did a search but to no avail). Not sure why I couldn't find one, but my quest for a permanent fix continues. Thanks so much for your help. Duane...

When trying to print an email with Word attachment, Outlook would only print the email and show an error when trying to print the attachment. (The attachment will print seperately but not with the "print attached files" option selected. The error message was "Ambiguous Name Detected: tmpdde"...

I have a user whose Outlook calendar reminders activate on time, but are hidden behind any open program. How do I get the reminders to appear on top of all open programs so they can be seen? Duane R. Bushway IT Specialist US Food and Drug Administation, Office of the General Counsel

I know there has to be a log kept somewhere with the data of the last person, date and time of log on (like seeing if your kid broke his restriction on using the PC). Can anyone tell me where this would reside? Thanks! Duane R. Bushway IT Specialist US Food and Drug Administation, Office of...

I have several PCs to configure and would like to only create the base user profile one time. I know how to copy the base profile to another on the same PC, how do I copy it to another PC? I looked into roaming profiles.. but that option is "grayed" out for me. Thanks, Duane Duane R. Bushway...

Tried the macro thing... didn't work.. I inserted a pic, started the macro recorder it limited me as to what options I could select from the "picture" toolbar. I couldn't change the "wrapping style" or the "horizontal alignment" and couldn't go into the advanced area. I'm guessing that there...

I created constintly documents with screen shots. On each and every "picture" I have to go into "Format Picture" and change the layout settings. Is there a way to change the default settings in this area to my preferences? Duane R. Bushway IT Specialist US Food and Drug Administation, Office...

Thanks for the info, great idea...However I still need a list of specific rights/restrictions (in essence the differences in the user levels). Duane R. Bushway IT Specialist US Food and Drug Administation, Office of the General Counsel

Is there any place that lists the specific differences between Administrator rights, Power users' rights and users rights....(On XP or 2000, either will do) I"m trying to get a handle on what can and cannot be done or restricted in each category. Thanks for your help. Duane Duane R. Bushway...

Longhair, Thanks for the info.... as far as I know there were no av programs running on this PC. However, the PC is connected to the network and does receive updates from time to time.. could be some kind of file that accumulates them.. but I haven't seen this on any of the others pcs in the...

I tried both ways.... and they worked just fine...Mike2287 and Staticfactory - thank you both for the help - you guys rock!

Unlike Windows 2000, I am finding that Windows XP does not keep the previous user's name in the "user name" field at the logon in prompt. I looked in the registry, and it looks like the default user name and domain are correct, but it will not "hold" the previous user name, the field is always...
