    unable to resize Windows Explorer columns (details view)

    I am running Windows Vista Home edition SP2 on a 64-bit laptop with all available Windows updates. For the last few weeks (don't remember the exact date) I have been randomly unable to resize columns in Windows Explorer when browsing in any viewing mode (I am usually in details view, which is...

    autofilter and subtotal not playing nice

    I would like to count the number of cells still visible after an autofilter. I know the Excel SUBTOTAL function will do this. I must be doing something incorrectly because this isn't happening for me. My code looks like this: ... Range("Fund_table").AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=Id...

    Excel add in with C++... fool's errand?

    Before I worked here, the guy before me wrote an add in for Excel. There is a handy little Development tab to accommodate VB, so that is what he used to write it. The problem is that we use this function in over a hundred cells and his function is reeeeally slow. It takes usually 5 to 10 minutes...

    Answer file storing plain text password

    I am using Image Manager from the Windows AIK toolkit to create an unattended answer file to image the computers in our lab. I would like to be able to join them to our domain without doing it manually for each computer. Here's the problem. The component for doing this (called "UnattendedJoin")...

    ubuntu: "not real linux"?

    I was very proud of myself for finally installing linux on the other half of my HDD. I told my friend that I had decided on Ubuntu. He then chuckled at me and said it was "fluffy" and that it was "not real Linux". I was just curious to see if this was a commonly held belief and why so? What...

    reverse euphemism

    Got any good reverse euphemisms? Here's an example my brother gave me: "It's swim night at the YMCA and school's out early, so I've got to go poop." "Poop?" "Oh, I mean I've got to go drop the kids off at the pool." Sarah -don't panic, I'm mostly harmless-

    shortcut not in the start menu

    I've installed Google talk on my Vista computer. In the start menu under all programs, there is a folder for Google talk, but the shortcut to the actual application isn't in there. Initially, I thought it may be a Google v Microsoft squabble, but the same thing happened when I installed Visual...

    can't find printer driver

    We just switched the computer in my office to Vista and I would like to print on the network printer, a LaserJet 1012. I went to the HP site and they didn't have one for Vista and google searching didn't prove very useful. Should the XP one work? Any suggestions? Sarah -don't panic, I'm mostly...

    ubuntu graphics

    I loaded the live CD of Ubuntu version 5.04 (I think it's hoary hedgehog) and all goes well until it tells me the graphics wont work and it runs in command line. I've tried it on two computers and it does the same thing. Is there something wrong with the settings on the computers? Am I missing...

    free way to partition?

    I want to have XP and linux on my computer. And I know very little about hardware. I know the easy way to partition is to buy something like partition magic. But is there a free way to do it? Or should I suck it up and pay. don't panic, I'm mostly harmless Sarah

    seg fault on fread()

    I'm trying to use someone elses code for turning binary to numbers and I don't really know what fread() is. I get what it's trying to do, but according to waht I've googled, the first arg should be a char* right? It's giving me a seg fault, and not knowing what fread is, I am having a hard time...

    string to number

    I know where my problem is, but I don't know how to fix it, or why it's happening this way. I am reading input from a file that for some reason reads in everything as strings. So I have to change those strings into numbers. These numbers may, but won't necesarily, be decimals with no more than...

    task manager disabled

    I think I got some kind of virus that did really quirky things. Like removing my games and Microsoft Office. But it did some really annoying things. When I press Ctrl-Alt-Del it says "task manager has been disabled by yor administrator". I AM the administrator. Also, when I go to change the...

    passing pointers... where did my data go?

    I'm trying to print out the contents of a linked list.To do that, I have created pointers of the lists in the main function here: int main(void){ List *l1, *l2; l1 = (List *)malloc(sizeof(node)); l2 = (List *)malloc(sizeof(node)); l1->head = (node *)malloc(sizeof(node)); l2->head = (node...
