I tested it and it worked great on a single workstation to a shared network drive. The management team scrapped the idea they had that required this, however, so I didn't end up deploying it... but thanks for the helpful tips :)

hrmm.. I don't have QBasic loaded on the PCs (it's for an entire call center that I support) - they do all have access to a shared drive, though, from which I run batch files, etc, on all affected systems -- I could push QBasic to the workstations (no install is necessary, just needs qbasic.exe...

That would work -- looking for something I can report off of in a network environment, though.. I appreciate it .. I'll use that but I'll try to find something that provides reporting options too :) Thanks... John

Does anyone out there know of a good utility to put on a Windows 98 machine that will keep a counter for how many times the machine has been restarted? Preferably it would be a utility that could generate a report (or that I could grab a report from accross the network)... Any help would be...

Also, he points out that it seems to display the subtotals correctly until around the 700th row... (he hadn't mentioned this to me before)

Apparently, once he applies a fourth subtotal (and any subsequent subtotals) the subtotals do not calculate properly. The totals all get shifted to the right and lose alignment, resulting in the subtotals not wrapping correctly.

I've upgraded one of my people to Office 2003 as my test case - so far everything is great with the exception of subtotals...after four or more subtotals deep the calculations do not occur correctly... the same exact file can be saved, then subtotals can be calculated in Office XP with no issue...

Product: Outlook XP OS: Windows 2000 I'm having an odd issue with one of my folks I support - when they open the Move to Folder dialogue one of their folders is available (presumably due to having moved a message there before). However, the folder does not show up anywhere in any of their...

I have an odd issue being reported by several of my folks with Excel. They fill columns with common colors for whatever reason... upon attaching the file to Outlook both the attached file and the source file are changed. The filled colors convert to a black background pattern, typically the...

The database is not protected - on the affected workstations the symptoms are experienced even if a new pivot table is created in a new database created from scratch. We've found the source of the problem to be possible issues with the registration of the web components, but some folks could use...

I have several workstations exhibiting the following behavior when attempting to create new pivot tables in Microsoft Access XP: - The form created by the wizard is blank without any drop fields available - All pivot table tools are greyed out When opening existing pivot tables, the form is...

Did you ever get a solution for this issue? I am having the exact same problem with many of the users I support and am unable to find a fix - I did find through a lot of fruitless searching that this is a very common problem experienced by hundreds of people, but... Anyway, any input would be...

Thanks edemiere - not a problem - I wanted to kill a process from within a batch file... DucatiST2 - I'll give that one a try.. thanks again!

Unfortunately, TopHat2 is right... I've still continued to look for another app that will run in DOS if anyone knows of one...

I'll give it a try and see... thanks again!
