    No folder options!?

    I'm using Windows 98 SE and for the life of me I can't find Folder Options anywhere. It should be in View in My Computer or Windows Explorer, but it isn't. It could've been moved to Control Panel (as in Windows Me), but it hasn't. Where on earth can it be? Any help gratefully received. Paul

    Paper orientation in Outlook Express

    My e-mail messages always print in landscape, even though I have been into Page Setup - Properties and set portrait as the default. Does anyone have any idea why this might be? Or is it likely my printer driver's gone wonky? Any help gratefully received! Paul

    Pack and Go in Powerpoint 97/2000

    Has anyone used Pack and Go? The wizard seems to do a successful job, and leaves you with a file called pres0.ppz which won't open in PowerPoint. If you associate it with PowerPoint, it complains that it can't open it. Any ideas? Thanks. Paul

    PowerPoint; unable to insert hyperlink

    Does anybody know why the hyperlink button and the corresponging menu item should be disabled in PowerPoint 2000? The Help file is, well, unhelpful. The troubleshooting section assumes you have been able to insert a hyperlink, but I can't even do that... Any help gratefully received. Paul
