Hi all.. Um this to me is a huge problem, I'm quite new at this.. so plz bare with me. I'm supposed to write a piece of code that will retrieve certain server computers' disk usage, given the IP of the computers... and I have absolutely no clue how this can be done in Java. Any help is...

um just Wondering, can you not just save the doc file as a txt file, and then after opening a database, you can import that txt file by going to File--Get External Data -- Import. And then if you choose the saved txt file. The wizard will automatically walk you through where you can decide what...

Hey, I found this piece of code in my hard drive today, looks like the sample code from MSDN that does what you want. I probably just copied down before just in case I need to use it. Sorry I don't remember exactly which article it's from, but I'll just paste it here, maybe you can pick out some...

Um, just one thing to add, I usually set Application.DisplayAlerts = True back to true after the save is done, just in case it is needed somewhere else.

Hi, sorry to tell you this, but ppl have asked about it before, it's the sercurity thing that only happens with the latest Outlook security Patch, I think, it never happens to me. And most ppl I asked say there's not much you can do except maybe only allow outgoing email and not install the...

Hi, exactly what kinda data do you want and from which email folder? If it's something like Address book, or contact folder and such, then what JHall suggested is the way to go, if it's something like each email in the inbox, their attachments and stuff like that, then I think the...

Um after playing around with this, the only thing I was able to do in code, is either completely download the global address list, or display the ID, Name, Address, and Class of each item on the global address list. Now, most of the items on my list, do have the extension number after the...

Hi, um where does the error occur? I can't tell what's wrong from what I see here, I've tried to access Word documents from VB as well, using some different methods, and I was getting weird errors messages. From what I've heard, apparently there are a lot of bugs in VB6 for Word automation, so...

Hey, make a reference to Scripting.FileSystemObject. It provides almost all the method you need to access the files in your hard drive. I know you've already done some of this, but once you make the reference, and try it out, you'll see that it's probably easier to do it this way. And as to your...

Um, maybe referencing to the Scripting.FileSystemObject would work? Once you make a reference of that, it has all sort of methods that will allow you to access the hard drive. I used that to process ceratin .doc files in my HD, so I think this should work as to knowing what graphic files are in...

Um, hehe yeah, I know what you mean, I almost never find a result using "Exact Phrase". I thik it's because it's matching posts to ur exact key words, and that reduces ur chance of finding a result greatly. So what I usually do is using "All Phrase", and that usually returns...

Oh yeah, this is definitely doable, well at least the Emailing part, I do Outlook automation all the time. You could use DoCmd.SendObject like RSGB suggested, or you could use CreateObject("Outlook.Application") to do this. Personally I found the latter more clear and less problematic...

Okay, I think this would work: Change the Sub I provided to this Boolean Function first: public Function usdOutlookIsOpen As Boolean Const cnstApp = "outlook.application.8" Dim lbooRetry As Boolean Dim App As Object On Error GoTo usdOutlookIsOpen_Err...

Frank, thanks for the input. However, I doubt that Outlook has that option. Cos if it's that easy, there wouldn't be so many ppl having this problem and can't seem so solve it. I don't have the latest outlook to check with either, so if anyone with the latest outlook and it's latest sercurity...

Hmm, well I don't know exactly how you coded it, if you don't mind the trouble and would like to post the related coding in here, I'm sure a lot of the programmers here would be glad to help you check it out. Good luck.
