    Reports don't open OR crash Access

    I've just had exactly the same problem on my database. To clear it I simply previewed a table to see if it could format the page on my default printer. When I went back to preview the reports, they had all returned! Hope this helps... Geraldine

    IIS 4.0 not able to see localhost or 127.0.0.1

    I'm afraid I've discovered the problem was totally unrelated to the exclusion problem, although I suspect that you were right in your advice. I found bad sectors on my hard drive, so I uninstalled and re-installed and it worked. All I've got to do now is sort the hard drive out! Thanks for...

    Win16 Subsystem unable to enter protected mode

    This error message appears when I try to run any 16bit program. It is followed by "DOSX.EXE must be present in your autoexec.nt and present in your path" -which it is. I did find a microsoft knowledge base article Q168925, which didn't help much. I have 3 other machines installed at...

    Making bootable CD-Rom

    Not as easy as you think. I heard that it can only be done by the big boys; a colleuge wanted to make them to use as recovery CD's and never managed it. Perhaps technology has moved on, I know that Nero has some complex settings which can supposedly overcome copying restrictions, you could try...

    COMPUTER FREEZES AFTER A FEW MINUTES OF INACTIVITY

    It could be a conflict between the power saving functions in Windows and those set in your bios. Geraldine

    Uninstall Problem

    Welcome to the world of Windows! Basically the uninstall routine has left some parts behind. If you wish to persue the matter you would need to edit the registry and manually remove the entries yourself. I wouldn't attempt it unless you know a little about the Registry and have made a backup...

    Monitor color

    Can't say I've come accross saturation or hue settings in Media player, but if the colour doeasn't appear at any other times it is possible that it is Media Player at fault. You could always try uninstalling it and re-installing it again. That should set it back to its default settings. Make...

    Outlook Express 6 problem

    This may be a security feature. If you were previewing the attachments before you would be automatically opening them when they could contain a virus. This way you could delete the email if you were suspicious without opening the attachment. Geraldine

    Uninstalling Outlook Express

    Deleting the folder will not remove all the references in the registry and will totally confuse Windows; I suggest you leave it there. What was the original problem? If it was a suspected corrupt file you may be able to install the latest version and solve the problem. Use Outlook Express...

    Out look express slow at retrieving mail!

    I believe that the service providers may be the problem and not you. Nimda and W32Badtrans have caused them some serious grief and I suspect they may be taking extra precautions in checking their mail. Does your ISP have a system status page?

    Outlook 2000 with multiple E-mail

    Thanks but I believe you are reffering to Outlook 'Express' not Outlook 2000. I have 'upgraded' to Outlook 2000 and all the features you mentioned are no longer there.

    Monitor color

    This can be caused by magnetic interference generated by something like badly shielded speakers. Try degausing, see the documentation provided with the monitor. Geraldine
