    Error: Cannot reflow this page because it contains form

    Here is the full error message: Cannot reflow this page because it contains form or digital signature fields. I have a user get this message while trying to print a PDF from Acrobat 7.0 Standard. I've gone to Adobe's website, done numerous searches from Yahoo and Google, plus search Tek-Tips...

    Keeping windows maximized

    Unchecking that "Display the Connection bar..." does work on my laptop. But when I try it on the thin client, the setting doesn't seem to take any effect. It is clearly unchecked, yet it maintains that Connection Bar at the top.

    Keeping windows maximized

    I have a simple script that I can't take much credit for. dm4ever wrote it. I'll give you the jist of what it does. I have it running on a thin client and it automatically opens a terminal server session. If that session is closed, it reopens it back up again. Basically I'm trying to keep...

    Checking to see if program is open/Start program if it's not open

    That last script works great! I really, really appreciate it! I owe you an e-Beer

    Checking to see if program is open/Start program if it's not open

    The OS on the thin client is XP Embedded. I tried to run the wbemtest and windows can't find it. I have tried running the script while logged in as administrator on the thin client as well and nothing happens. Maybe a vbscript won't work on a thin client?

    Checking to see if program is open/Start program if it's not open

    Line 7 in your script and line 13 in my script are the same and that's where it seems to be screwing up.

    Checking to see if program is open/Start program if it's not open

    I just tried your script and when it's run from the startup directory, I still get the weird "There is no file extension in "C:\Documents" error. When I run your script from the root of C on the thin client, I get an invalid syntax error with Line 7, Char 1. Again, I ran your script on my...

    Checking to see if program is open/Start program if it's not open

    That is all it says when the script is run from the Startup dir. in the start menu. If I move the script to the root C drive and run it, I get an invalid syntax error. Again, this script ran perfectly on my laptop, and starting it from multiple directory locations. It only screws up on the...

    Checking to see if program is open/Start program if it's not open

    Here's my script: DIM intCount intCount = True DO while intCount = True Dim strComputer, wmiNS, wmiQuery, objWMIService Dim colItems, objItem strComputer = "." wmiNS = "\root\cimv2" wmiQuery = "Select * From win32_process Where name='mstsc.exe'" Set objWMIService =...

    Checking to see if program is open/Start program if it's not open

    I forgot to add my script... Dim strComputer, wmiNS, wmiQuery, objWMIService Dim colItems, objItem strComputer = "." wmiNS = "\root\cimv2" wmiQuery = "Select * From win32_process Where name='mstsc.exe'" Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & wmiNS) Set colItems =...

    Checking to see if program is open/Start program if it's not open

    dm4ever- Many thanks! I've modified it slightly so that instead of popping up dialog boxes indicating your program state, I have it fire up my Remote Desktop Connection if it's not running. I want to be able to go right into an existing profile setup, and *.rdp file. Can I do that? Thanks again!

    Checking to see if program is open/Start program if it's not open

    Hi folks- I'm new to vbscripting so please bear with me. The script I'm trying to write will look for a certain text in the title bar of a window. For example, My Documents. If it can't find a My Documents window open, it then will open the folder/program. What I'm working on is a thin...

    NT 4.0 SP6a Server randomly rebooting

    I have a Micron Netframe 2100 running NT 4.0 SP6a and over the last few days I've had some random reboots. 3 today. No new software has been installed, no new hardware, no new nothing. The only function for this server is data storage and it runs Veritas BackupExec (which I despise by the...

    NT BDC Unable to communicate at 100 MBPS

    I've tried to allow auto-negotiation on both the NIC and the switch. I've also manually set the exact same settings on the switch and the BDC. I guess my question boils down to whether or not a PDC communicating at 10 MBPS can talk to a BDC trying to communicate at 100 MBPS?

    NT BDC Unable to communicate at 100 MBPS

    Both the PDC and BDC are attached to a Cabletron 10/100 24 port switch. The PDC is opperating at 10 MBPS and I'm trying to get the BDC to opperate at 100 MBPS, with no success. Again, the BDC functions perfectly at 10 MBPS, it stops responding as soon as I make that jump from 10 to 100.
