Yes I did but it wouldn't accept the accented characters. "Windows: Just another pane in the glass.

Thanks for the reply xmsre, I tested this on my own account (still SMS 2003, Exchange 2003) and I use Outlook 2003. I could enter the accent marks in AD, it shows correctly but when I send mail out to a pop account I have (collected by my Outlook) the accent marks were not present... The server...

Hi Chris, There are a number of way you could share a calender. For a single shared calendar you can add a calendar to your public folder tree and set permissions as you see fit. As an admin right click on your PF root and create new folder, storing Calendar. You can also make your own...

I have a SBS 2003 with Exchange 2003. One particular user has accent marks in her name and would like these included in her email display name, not her email address. I have discovered that although when in the General tab of her AD account in the properties, I can enter the accented letters...

Could be a motherboard failing or a disk in need to some tlc... I would suggest booting the PC from your windows XP CD, choose 'Repair using the console' you will then be presented with a black screen where you can type. (if it asks for admin pswd etc please enter) type in chkdsk /p /r and press...

I would also suggest disabling system restore, reboot into safe mode and re-run your scans from there, on reboot, go into normal windows and re-run again to ensure they are gone. re-enable system restore when clean. Examples of good antispyware apps are AVG Antispyware(Ewido), Prevx; they are...

You can of course move across the users favourites, quick launch items, desktop items so it should feel a bit more like home :) As for your windows installer issue have you checked what Add-ons are being used by IE? I would probably go through them and remove any that pertain to toolbars that...

Have you tried deleting all temporary internet files, cookies, history, setting all back to default (security and advanced settings) reload IE and try again? Does it do this under all PC logins? Even newly created ones? "Windows: Just another pane in the glass.

I would try recreating the users profile on the PC (reboot, login as admin and rename the user folder to user.old) then relog the user and setup Outlook again. If it still fails you can easily revert back to the original user profile by changing the name back. If it still fails, have you tested...

Hi Mark, Forgive me if I'm wrong but basically your users handhelds won't authenticate due to a ssl cert not being installed? You can obtain the appropriate cert from a pc in your domain. Export the cert and copy to the handheld, run from there and it will import it. I use IE7 and get a cert...

Hi TT, I have a query that hopefully you will be able to shed some light on. I have a user called Éva who would like to include the accent on the letter 'E' in her email display name, when sending out. I have tested the inclusion of this on a test account (SMS 2003, Exch 2003) and have...

Hi folks, I have a client who is designing an SQL database and has asked me for a graphics package for designing schema. He is using SQL Manager to create the database. I have had a look around but don't really know if one is better than another having never had the need to look for or use...

Fumei, I ment that if the VBA you can access in any MS Office App isn't enough for him he will have to buy something, hence putting his hand in his pocket (to find his wallet :)) Thanks for all your input though, I'm sure my client will be fine. Regards, Simon "Windows: Just another pane in...

Thanks for you reply PHV. No he was quite specific, he wants Visual Basic for Applications.... I'm not sure he knows how to code but who am I to argue? The users always right until you prove them wrong :) So if what's available in Excel isn't enough for him he's going to have to put his hand...

I have answered my own qustion, it's part of any MS Office application so I wil point him at that and see what he says... "Windows: Just another pane in the glass.
