    Explorer Display Order

    Is there a way to change the order in which directories are displayed (non alphabetical)so that I can access a directory beginning with "v" for example without having to scroll? I realize that I could rename it but that is a bad solution and would undo a lot of links. This directory falls under...

    Selecting More Than One Attachment

    I use Outlook Web Access. Is there a way to select more than one attachment at a time. I use a satellite connection from lots of remote areas and it can be cumbersome at times to keep attaching individual attachments one at a time when they are all in the same folder. I guess the question is can...

    Any Dangers with XP Compression?

    I am very close to running out of disk space on an IBM XP laptop (36 Gb, NTFS). I travel for work and use it for business. Because I am gone for extended periods, I decided to rip my entire CD collection to MP3s. Can anyone comment on any problems I might encounter if I compress this volume...

    I have a win 2000 server with 25 GB of an 80 GB drive used. 1.5 Gb of RAM. I need to convert to ntfs. My question is approximately how long will it take? I have not had occasion to do this conversion before so I just need to know if I can come in an hour early or should I be prepared for an...

    view user space usage

    It has been a while since I needed to view user space usage to determine who may be using way more disk space than needed. I used NWadmin to look at volume properties of a Netware 4 server. You could specify a user or all users in an OU and view their current usage. I believe that I could...

    Server 2003 Enterprise, IBM xSeries 346 mirrored. When Server 2003 installed, it created a C: drive of only 3.42 Gb out of the 33.9 available (I didn't notice anywhere to specify otherwise). Is there a way to add the unallocated space (30.47 Gb) to the C: drive? This is a Domain Controller. It's...

    After cloning out 20 XP pro computers, I was unable to name each computer by using the first initial-full last name of the user and then creating an account with the same name. (this has been our MO since the first flavor of windows) The first one that I unsealed would not let me create an...

    Here's what I would like to do. I want to select a certain model number (drop down validation list) which would then let me select from a list of parts for that particular model. I can accomplish this rather crudely and I am thinking that someone must have a better method. I use a table with all...

    How can I delete a NW6 license from NW4.11?

    At one time I installed a test server (NW6) into the NW4.11 tree. The only object that still remains is the License Object (Novell+Netware 6 Server+600) and its subordinate (SN:XXXXXXXXX). The license object will not delete because of the subordinate and the Serial Number object will not delete...
