    Hi, I have a load of elements in a document some of which I can drag-copy and drop. When I start to drag an element (keeping the left button down) both firefox and ie start hilighting the underlying element text (and all it's neighbours) as it would do if I were not dragging the element but...

    Can't FTP external site from 2003 sbs

    Sorry for not getting back sooner MoobyCow, tfg13. Just delivered on a deadline. It's nice to get some sleep again. Yes, I basically have the default SBS installation with ISA. I'm somewhat hazy about what gives you what, but my understanding is that SBS comes with a firewall and that ISA...

    Can't FTP external site from 2003 sbs

    Thanks for the response. I tried the link you suggested and was prompted to add http://ftp.netscape.com to my trusted sites. I did this and could then start downloading the file. My problem is when I try to use ftp from the command line. I tried: c:\directory>ftp netscape.com and again got...

    Can't FTP external site from 2003 sbs

    I'm sure this can't be all that uncommon a problem?

    Can't FTP external site from 2003 sbs

    Hi, I can, indeed, ping the remote site and I haven't set up any ftp access to "this computer". To be honest I'm not sure where to find my firewall configuration? Thanks

    Can't FTP external site from 2003 sbs

    Thanks. It is the command line ftp that I was having trouble with. (I also tried unchecking the "Use Passive FTP", but to no avail. I keep getting: > ftp: connect :Host is unreachable

    Can't FTP external site from 2003 sbs

    I am trying to connect to an external ftp site from my 2003 SBS server (this computer). Computers on my network connect to the internet through this computer and can also get ftp access (and connect to remote sql servers), but I can't on this computer. I'm sure it's a simple config setting but...

    dynamically create a shape from a master

    Hello again, This is kind of linked to my last post. Since I presume it is not possible to add actions to a shape dynamically, I thought about trying to create a master with the action in it and then dynamically add new shapes to my page using that master. I can't seem to find any...

    Programatically add actions. Possible?

    Is it possible to add actions for a shape in vb code (as opposed to manually doing it through the shape sheet)? I tried Call s.AddRow(VisSectionIndices.visSectionAction, 1, 1) But visio didn't like it. (I'm not sure about the syntax). Cheers

    &quot;Does not support&quot; Application.FileSearch

    Thanks johnwm. I suspected as much (even though FileSearch is in visio's VB help). I ended up using: Dim fs, f, f1, fc, s Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set f = fs.GetFolder(dir) Set fc = f.files For Each f1 In fc Call...
