The software for the el-cheapo fax modem I bought is not supprisingly pretty much useless, so I am going to have to figure out how to program with the TAPI controls. The only problem is that I don't have a developers license for the stinking controls, which makes this task very much impossible...

Okay, I did some google searches and now I see that I DO have TAPI support. I have a data/voice/fax modem installed in this machine and TAPI drivers installed. Thanks again! Amidon

How can I tell if I have ATAPI Support? I can create a dial-up account and dial a phone number, does that mean anything? By the way, thanks for your responces, I'm an IBM mainframe guy and have long forgotten most of the stuff I knew about Windows. If you don't use it, you truly do lose it...

Actually, the pager that I'm going to be using doesn't support e-mail in any way. I know that pagers are a little antiquated when cell phones are so common, but the pager is VERY cheap and can easily be transferred from one on-call person to the next. Kinda weird that this can't be done with...

Okay, I am having problems with some of my mainframe storage devices falling offline at very inopportune times. What I have done was write a program that runs on the mainframe that will FTP a file that contains a count of storage devices that are online and "healthy" to one of my Windows 2003...

I created a partitioned drive for my Access '97 applications. On my local C: drive I have my Access 2000 applications loaded. Does anyone see a conflict on the two running this way? Do you anticipate any .dll or .ocx errors, or any errors at all?

THANK YOU! Do you see any conflict with leaving Office 2000 on my local C: and Office 97 on my partioned E:? Do you think any of the .dll's or .ocx files will conflict?

Is there a reason I should load an OS on the partitioned drive? The reason I created the partition is to run two different Access programs on two different drives. So, with that in mind... do I even need to load an OS on the partition?

Thank you for all your help! My apologies for not letting you know that the drive I partitioned already has XP Pro loaded on it. I just have a partition now that I don't know where to go with from here. My local is drive C:, my partition is drive E:.

When I put the XP CD in, it's asking if I want a new installation or an upgrade installation. Which one and does this sound correct?

Yes, they are both NTFS. So, let me see if I get this right... Insert the XP Pro CD and choose to load it on the partioned 3GB drive? It will only install there and leave everything else in tact?

I partitioned off 3GB of my hard drive and I know I need to load the OS to the partition. I am using XP Pro.. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to load this properly? THANKS!

I am working on a database where I need to send several e-mail addresses to Outlook at the same time. I have built a query with all the addresses and now I would like some advise as to the best way to click on "something" and Outlook open up and add all 300 addresses to the "To" field to send...
