    Word temp files

    OK, so I have a coworker, who wonders if there is any way to find a temp version of a document she created, then printed, but didn't save. I am of the opinion she's outta luck, but thought I would post the question, since the bucket that holds the stuff I don't know is pretty large... TIA-- Ben

    Outlook attachments

    I receive 8-10 emails a day from 6 or so people. Each has from one to five attachments. In theory, I'm supposed to review these attachments, but frankly I don't have time, so what I've been doing is saving them to various network directories for the day when either I do have time or can hand...

    Broken Object Library Refs

    Somewhere, somewhen, I could've sworn I've seen some code to refresh all library refs...but now I can't find it anywhere.... Anyone else familiar with this? I've seen some things in my search that will let you view info about them, but not the code that will automatically refresh them...

    Importing Contacts to Outlook XP

    So I finally got fed up with some oddball PC behavior that I couldn't track down and backed up necessary stuff and reformatted ye olde HD and reloaded everything. Running Win ME, Office XP (though I also have 97 & 2K installed). One of the things I backed up was contacts in Outlook 2K, just...

    Urgent permissions error

    So I'm working along in a db that I've had working just fine for upwards of four years, and in exiting a form I've used hundreds of times, no recent changes, I start to get all sorts of errors (which I foolishly didn't copy down word for word) along the lines of Unrecognized db format, can't...
