Thanks Paul. Have a star! Z.

Hello all; I'm working on a report that uses parameter input on the date field of a table. What I've done is use the Criteria between (enter start date) and (enter end date) to pull the correct data. Which works well. I also created a subquery to count the total number and obtain the first date...

Eh... wrong. Technology should be there to use and restrict as need be to support policy and procedure. But I digress... in reading some on Microsoft site, I came across the topic of IRM (Information Rights Management); which exactly has to to with restricting the actions that a recipient can...

Hi, I have an interesting request from a site owner. she will be publishing all of her protocols on our Intranet Sharepoint site. She will be the only one updating documents. What she wants is for all of her users to only get the protocols from the site. What happens now is that the users...

Once again, I am my own worst enemy. Solved the problem by going to //sharepoint/home, going to "Manage portal site" and then right clicking on "Site" to edit the properties and restore the default template page. Ahhhhh. Hope this helps anyone who is wondering blind in the des(s)ert of...

I need some help. I was playing with changing the design of my <site> homepage, and I applied the template from another site. Instead of applying the site as a template (for its design) it completely replaced my site default page with the new page. how do I restore the <old> site default...

That should get you...

Change to an "explorer view" in the document library, and then you can do cut and paste with your documents. Z.

Hey, for anyone else having this problem... the solution was creating an exception in our antivirus software to allow OWSTIMER.exe. Just an fyi... Z.

We recently had our netowrk engineer leave the roganization. I'm the content admin for Sharepoint, but I'm not a server or dba guy. Since we've set up sharepoint the e-mail alerts or notifications have never worked. We use exchange and outlook. I can't find anywhere where you create the link...

I'm wanting to use Sharepoint for document libraries of procedures, forms, etc. Is there a way in sharepoint to force a user to check-out a document before editing?

If you link the two tasks with a finish-to-finsh relationship, then the start dates will not coincide. However, if you play with the resource available for the forwmwork (modeling), you should be able to manipulate the start date to get it to start at the same time. As always, the last thing to...

I'm not sure about how to do as you request... but there may be an easier way. Project has a calendar wizard that can be used for that purpose, (takes about 5 minutes). Once you set up the holidays in the calendar one time and save it as "Company calendar" or something like that, you can then...

Ok, now you've lost me. I'm not a programmer... just know enough to be dangerous to myself and others. :) Anyways, this looks like a declaration for a variable(?) Do I enter this in a table to poulate the form, or does it go somewhere in the "code". Thaks for putting up with my ignorance on...
