Hi, I have a Netgear isdn router and have started looking at dial-up access; however, when I dial the router it doesn't answer the call - for example, the status screen shows Channel 1 as a 'voice' link when I ring from a desk phone (just to test) but it still doesn't actually answer (ringing...

Thanks - not sure why I couldn't find any info when there seems to be so much of it. I think the HP driver angle is definetely the one to follow. Here's to hours of fun.

Anyone seen the following error in XP.. it continually pops up: iomgr: syncwaitmultiple() says wait_failed. I can find no info. on this error so if someone has an idea I'd appreciate it. Cheers.

Hi, I'd like to change the backcolor property of a textbox in a report depending on the value of the field (currently "T", "P" or null). Has anyone managed to change a control's properties in a report like this? Thanks in advance.

This was the answer I was hoping not to get! Thanks for reply.

Thanks for replies... I noted the SP1 comments and realised my version was a fairly early copy of Office 2000 Premium. I uninstalled completely, installed Office 2000 SP1 and it worked fine.
