    Corel Photo Feature Equivalent?

    I remember a feature/filter in Corel Photo where the feature/filter in question put a sort of elastic grid across the image and as you clicked and pulled any part of the grid, the image itself would follow the grid such that you could effectively stretch or distort parts of an image. Where...

    Indenting Code

    Seen a number of posts in here where the code is somewhat hard to read because there is little indenture in it. Did a search on 'Smart Indenter' and found nothing, so just in case you haven't seen it, this is a free addin from Stephen Bullen that allows you with a right click menu the option of...

    Automatic WBS Indenture

    Just a tip that may be of use to somebody, only I'm finding that I'm using this more and more each day now. For those of you that work with WBS structures, or Work Breakdown Structures, eg the sort of thing you get in Microsoft Project where you have a structure that lists all the tasks in a...

    Users can't logon to any accounts

    "The program has issued a command but the command length is incorrect - See your sysadmin." Even happens on the Guest account which shouldn't have a password on it as far she recalls. When they try hitting F8 to boot into safemode they just get a question asking them what they want to boot...

    Wireless Security Pointers Please

    OK, have just taken the plunge and bought a Buffalo 125 Air Station and a Buffalo 125 Cardbus. Set up in minutes and went like a dream. Only problem now is that I have no idea about whether I am open to the world in some way in terms of security. Does anyone have any links to good learning...

I do this every time, and every time I do this it says I have successfully installed it, but then even if I reboot I go back to the site and I get the same message telling...

    How do I manually Change an IRQ?

    Been having problems with my Soundblaster 5.1 in that I get horrible crackling noises when I play anything, and these are amplified enormously by any movement on the mouse when it crosses hyperlinks for example.

    AVG is telling me that I have a virus in a file in my 'Downloaded Program files folder' in C:\Windows, but when I look at that folder it appears to be empty, even with Show Hidden System files and folders selected. If however I right click and choose properties it tells me that there are 4...

    Just had a new laptop at work and we are running Outlook 2002. The folder list is not ordered in alphabetical order, and I have never seen it not so. I am used to running with my Outlook Today folder at the top of the list, and my personal folders below it. Because I have a lot of personal...

    Document at work in Word that brings in a bunch of data from an excel spreadsheet (Approx 300 rows of data). Most of imports just fine, but some of the dates are coming across as their numerical equivalents, eg 13/05/2004 will perhaps appear as 38120. Odd text fields come across 0s as well...
