I'm not sure because I don't have a W2k or Win98 machine to test it on. But the fix should be similar and you should be able to put it in the logon script or push it to workstations using a utility such as Dameware. Pat Bradley MCSE+I, MCP W2K

Not sure what OS you're using, but this works with NT. This will replace &quot;My Computer&quot; with the username and computer name. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}. Select the <No Name> value and Delete. From the Edit menu select Add Value. Leave the value...

I don't know what OS you're using, but I had a user with same problem using Word 97 on a NT 4.0 machine. I deleted users profile. When user logged back on, graphics printed no problem.

I am quite confused. I have an all NT 4.0 domain. Every now and then spooler will jam and problem can be traced to job that is owned by &quot;Anonymous Login&quot;. User that actually printed job is not able to delete, must be administrator. I cannot determine a pattern as this affects different...
