    reinitializing my hard drive

    I am going to take the big plunge and nuke my laptop. I have backed up all my files and fonts. I have been able to find all the exes of the downloaded software that I really want to reload. One I have not been able to find is the exe for my Norton's Antivirus 2006 which I resubscribed to over...

    Using bluetooth with Canon MP500

    Has anyone had experience using the BU-20 bluetooth printer server adapter with a Canon MP500 or any Canon printer? I bought a bluetooth adapter from Ambicom but have yet to get it to work. Canon lists the BU-20 product but absolutely no directions on how to use it. When I Google the BU-20...

    Will Canon MP500 support bluetooth printing?

    I just bought a Pixma MP500 all-in-one. It works great for what I do. I would like to hide it in a computer armoire in another room. I can get a super bluetooth for $40 that sends a signal a 100 meters. I know that you can print photos from a camera phone directly to the printer, but can I do...

    copying a chart in Excel

    At our school we are charting our attendance for several weeks, so I am building a spreadsheet for every teacher to use. I started a workbook that contains the attendance data and made a customized chart. Then I copied the data to all the other sheets. I also copied the chart to the other...

    Excel plug-ins?

    Are there any completely free plug-ins for Excel that will dress up the charts? Is there an alternative to Excel that maybe is a shareware program that does as good a job making charts? Everything I Google costs an arm and a leg. Daniel

    turn off symbols in 2003

    I have just recently switched over to Office 2003, and one of the new features is about to drive me crazy. When I go to edit data or text, I get a little symbol icon appearing on the document. Example: I wanted to change the date on an older document, and when I clicked the the point of...

    Microsoft Document Imaging Format (MDI)

    Recently I pushed out Office 2003 to 50 some computers at my school. We run Win 2000. Four of the computers in a workroom near me are creating Microsoft Document Imaging files (MDI)inadvertantly. The students claim they are opening Word and saving the documents like they always did, but .mdi is...

    PM 6.5 on XP Pro

    I have a client that has PM 6.5 on a server and their computers run XP Pro. I am telling them that they will have problems trying to run PM 6.5 on a server, and that it probably won't run well on XP at all. They don't want to spend the money to upgrade to PM 7.0 or InDesign. Just what kind of...

    system 32 flagged with virus

    I tried to install Norton's Anitvirus 2005 on a laptop. The installation seemed to be going OK when Norton's detected a virus in the System 32. It wanted to erase the file. I foolishly skipped the step and continued with the installation, my reasoning being that the computer needed System 32 to...

    paste special not working like it used to

    I have always selected a cell from one worksheet and used Paste Special into another worksheet by selecting Value on the Paste Special dialog box. It usually shows a formula like =Disbursements!$G$3 in the cell where I paste. It no longer will do that for me. It is not interactive either...

    create slideshow and autoplay without computer

    I want to create a slideshow and place it in a DVD player attached to a TV in a cafeteria to run an add for school activities. I am fine with the slideshow itself but was wondering how the slide show will play since no computer is present. Is it possible, or am I going to have to lug a...

    disappearing cursor

    We have a Dell GX 260 that has lost its cursor. A student changed the cursor to another shape, then changed it back. The cursor then disappeared. The Dell Logitech laser mouse still lights up, so I know it's still getting power. I thought at first that somehow it might still work and tried in...

    double page spread does not print correctly

    I have two files with a double page spread that print only one of the pages. The links manager says that all links are current. The printer spits out a blank for one page, and the other page prints correctly. Oddly enough, the double page spread distills perfectly. One would think that if there...

    popup list in Excel?

    I want to format a cell or actually a column of cells to contain a list of words similar to the comments you can place in a cell. Then I would like to be able to select one of the comments to appear in the cell. I guess you would call it a popup submenu, but Help does not list that as an Excel...

    PageMaker across a network

    I visited a school today that uses PM 7.0 across a network. I had one problem after another with freezing and printing errors. I explained to the tech that I had read that PM did not like networks, but he assured me they had no problems with it. One problem I saw involved a File> Print... where...

    window does not display correctly

    For the last month I have been having a similar problem that leahloy has had (my toolbar is gone...where did it go?). When I open PM 7.0 on my Home XP laptop, I will just barely see the tops of the page numbers of my publication. I have to maximize the window and tuck it up under the menus, then...

    Cannot Open File

    I have three files on the same CD that refuse to open by means of double clicking or using File> Open. The error message is Cannot Open File. This format file cannot be opened by this application. 8009:20481 I saw one FAQ that says it could be a bad index file. What can I tell the creator of...
