Solve : Word and Excel?

Answer»

Can I add an up and/or down arrow in the text using Word and Excel?I think you'll have to expand your explanation of what you want to do. As stated in your original post, it doesn't make MUCH sense, in my opinion.

Are you working withh Word and Excel files that are larger than what can be displayed on one screen? If so, then you should see a scroll bar on the right side of your screen and you can use it to move up and down the page. Or, you can use arrow KEYS, PgUp, PgDn, Home, and End keys to navigate a large file. I do know how to use the scroll bars on the FAR left. What I need to do is insert an up or down arrow within the text of a document.An arrow? I'm still not following you. In Word, you can insert "bookmarks" at various points in a document and then create hyperlinks to those bookmarks. Is that what you want?No, just an arrow....a straight line with an arrowhead on the end. Is this what you want?


yes, that's it! Thank you!Menu at top > Insert > Symbol > Symbols tab > Font: Wingdings > select symbol, scrolling if necessary > click Insert > click Close

Hmm, my mis-interpretation, I guess, but I you could have clearly stated you were not talking about a navigation tool, just a mere image of an arrow. Quote from: SOYBEAN on November 06, 2010, 07:19:11 PM

SEEMS pretty clear to me

"Can I add an up and/or down arrow in the text using Word and Excel?"HI

Thanks for the answer. I knew there were special characters somewhere but just didnt know how to get them. This has helped me.

Solve : win dvd pro?

Answer»

i have win 7x64 system with blu ray player. i can play regular dvds but not blu ray. i must find out if it is a software problem or hardware problem. i purchased(downloaded) win dvd pro, but i can not get it installed. even had tech support try, but did not work. icon installs on desktop, but when you click on it blue circle goes around for awhile then nothing happens. usually when i have a problem installing something it is the comodo firewall causing the problem. any suggestions. i do not want refund on wind dvd pro unless it wont work before my refund period is over.Is your DVD drive blue ray compatible?Does dvd pro come with codecs for playing blue-ray?Quote from: talontromper on November 26, 2010, 12:34:22 AM

Does dvd pro come with codecs for playing blue-ray?

blu-ray isn't a codec. the blu-ray discs use MPEG-2, H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, and VC-1 ENCODING, which are all standard fare in any VIDEO playing application.Sometimes you need to have the latest drivers for your video card installed, and there are patches that may need applying (confusingly CALLED SP1 and SP2), and the app does not work with certain video cards.

Browse here for hints

http://forum.corel.com/EN/viewforum.php?f=36

Anyhow, something confuses me: how do you get a refund on software that you downloaded? I thought that the download version was a 30 day TRIAL, and that Corel only give refunds on retail software returned in its unopened original packaging.



i have THIRTY days to get a refund. that is what they told me on the phone. it is a computer that plays both reg. and blu-ray disks.

Solve : Hide options/icons from control panel?

Answer»

Dear All

How can i hide icons/options from control panel so no one else can see who is using the computer, just LIKE in corporates where almost all the options are either disabled or hidden . SORRY, I'm not sure what you want to do. Do you want to keep OTHERS from knowing you are on the network, do you want to remove specific applets from control panel, do you want to prevent other users from accessing control panel, or is it something else?No, i am not on the network. It is a home PC. But some times guests who visit do use the computer and can modify the settings. I want to prevent them doing it. Please help me so no one except me can access the control panel.Create a limited user account for your guests. Or even better, tell your guest what they may and may not do or they won't be permitted to use your computer again.

Download JavaRa to your desktop and unzip it to its own folder

  • Run JavaRa.exe (Vista users! Right click on JavaRa.exe, click Run As Administrator), pick the language of your choice and click Select. Then click Remove Older Versions.
  • Accept any prompts.

Update your Java version here: http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp

Note 1: UNCHECK any pre-checked toolbar and/or software offered with the Java update. The pre-checked toolbars/software are not part of the Java update.

Note 2: The Java Quick Starter (JQS.exe) adds a service to improve the initial startup time of Java applets and applications. If you don't want to run another extra service, go to Start > Control Panel > Java > Advanced > Miscellaneous and uncheck the box for Java Quick Starter. Click OK and restart your computer.

I apologize, part of my post was cut off. I run windows xp sp3. Have never had an update problem with java before however jre 6u22 will not install. Java help is no help. Have uninstalled all java using java ra and revo uninstaller. I have tried the online installer several times with and without anti virus and firewall; it will not complete. Have downloaded offline installer and tried it several times only to get these error messages: ( javasetup error 1714), ( software already installed would you like to reinstall it), and my favorite ( this action only valid for products that are currently installed). I keep my system clean, and updated. Run avast, super antispyware,threatfire, and others regularly. Have looked for this problem on many tech sites but still no answer. I hope you can help.See here: http://www.javafixer.org/error-1714.php
It may be not Java's fault.Thanks Broni for the link. I went through all the steps listed at http://www.javafixer.org/error-1714.php and nothing changed except an additional error message. This one says that the file needed is on a disk or other removable device. I downloaded update 21 which worked and it will not install EITHER. Any more suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Can you post EXACT error message?Java 6 update 21 The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available Insert the Java 6 update 20 disk and click ok (at the bottom) Use source 1 --------- That's all. My paste won't work in this frame. Did you download "offline" installation file?

http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

Yes I downloaded the offline file with no better results. Downloaded and tried to install update 21 offline; it wouldn't install either. I run Ccleaner weekly, update and scan with Superanti spyware, running Avast and scan weekly, update and scan with Malwarebytes bi-weekly, do the same with Spybot S&D, run TFC about twice a week, use Index Dat Anylizer bi-weekly, defrag weekly, use Eusing Reg. Cleaner about once a month, update and run Advanced System Care bi- weekly, and have Threatfire running all the time. This free stuff works better than any subscription I've ever had. I appreciate your help.When this pops up:
"The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available. Insert the "Update Manager" disk
and click OK. Use source: 1."

....select "Browse" and it may show you, what file is installer looking for.
I still think, you have Windows Installer issue.Hey Broni, I have 12 cd's labeled 1 of 11, 2 of 11, and so forth plus 1 supplemental install disk. I have no way of knowing which is the install mngr. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.When you select "Browse" does it mention any particular file?When I click browse it always goes to my documents and when I click through to my download folder it shows empty although I can go to my documents through the icon and it shows everything downloaded. I tried changing the destination folder and got the same results and same error messages. Thanks for your time Broni, I appreciate your help. Every time I run java ra it says it removed all older versions. Here is the log : Found and removed: SOFTWARE\JavaRa

Solve : Best spyware/adware tools??

Answer»

Hi
Ive got spybot/ advanced system care/ malware bytes on my pc but do you think i need any better ones- free only!

thanksSpybot is old school.

You need a good anti virus utility always active plus regular SCANS with MalwareBytes
http://www.superantispyware.com/Seems like you have so many things on your PC. Doesn't it slow down your PC? By the way, if I'm not wrong, Spybot handles Malware too, RIGHT? Why do you need to have Malware Bytes?

If you want better and free softwares, Microsoft have it all. You might want to install Windows FIREWALL, Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows DEFENDER...

We can suggest you much better ones but the most best ones are not free.

Answer»

I have a HP 4200 series "All in one " printer that I have used for years through Windows 98, Windows XP, Vista, and for two months, Windows 7 (64 bit).. Suddenly this am, it stopped responding. Message says that it is not there... So I TRIED to re-install it with the original CD. When the installer is running it comes back with another message saying that I need administrator rights to install this. I am the only user and administrator. I have a tried to change users types, inserted other users, but nothing seems to work.

Solve : Thumbnails for Open Office Documents. My problem?

Answer»

Thumbnails for Open Office Documents. My problem
Using Open Office 3.2 thumbnails of documents are VISIBLE in Windows Explorer.
Here is a screen shot of Desktop.

In documents 2 and 3 you can SEE the image of the inserted JPG file.
But in Documents 1 and 4 it is not visible. But it is there.

The workaround is to save the file as RTF, open it with WordPad, then insert the JPG again, then save it. Now the Thumbnail is OK.

After the file is converted back to the ODT FORMAT the thumbnail view still shows the EMBEDDED image. But if I have to change the image, Open Office no longer gives the thumbnail with the image. Drives me crazy!

As far as I know, this thumbnail feature is part of Open Office,
- not Windows Explorer.

Is there something I am missing? What should I try next?
Thanks for any help.

Solve : iTunes error message?

Answer»

Hello. I'm a novice when it COMES to computers so I apologize in advance if I am putting this post in the wrong section.

A few days ago I clicked to open my iTunes, and it was taking a long time to open. It gave me a message that it was looking for my library or something like that. I was FRUSTRATED so I hit cancel and thats was it. When I re-clicked iTunes, my music as WELL as my podcasts were all gone. This made me even more frustrated. I then decided to upgrade from iTunes 9.12 to iTunes 10 to no avail. I googled this problem online and most of them said to uninstall/reinstall and I did PRECISELY that but everytime I do, I get an error message (I attached a picture of what the error message looks like).

Any ideas or solutions to this problem will be greatly appreciated! Also let me know if you need other information.

Of course Outlook uses a .pst file in 2010. Sorry goblue - stupid of me - yes, all you have to do is OPEN data file management in outlook to see the location of the .pst file.I'm bad, I can't locate anything that says data file management, how do i get there, step by step please. I'm stupid of the stupid
Tell you what - here's the easiest way:

RIGHT click on the ribbon (I use the Home tab for this, but that's up to you). Then SELECT "customize ribbon". Then choose: "All Commands" from the dropdown box and scroll down to the Data File Management entry and add it to the ribbon commands on the right. Now you'll have an icon for data file management on the ribbon. It's handy to leave there because you should COMPACT the database every once in a while anyway (Double-click on the data file and "compact").

Solve : Outlook 2007 Contact Form?

Answer»

Outlook 2007

Needing some custom CONTACT fields, I managed to design a FORM using the built-in forms designer. I wasn't able to use the new template style, but it works fairly well. However, I can't seem to get ONE thing to work.

For contacts I have the usual notes field. But I NEED another field for personal INFO that won't get synchronized over to my iPhone.

I call this field "Personal Info". I tried using another notes field, but Outlook won't allow two note fields in a Contact form. So I tried a user defined field, but it won't allow multi-line operation -- only a single line with no carriage returns. I need a field that will allow me to have multiple lines and not sync to my iPhone.

Please help.

Reboot and try to install Java. Let us know what happens
I have no intention of touching rundll30.exe & not sure what you mean about installing Java.After SPENDING A LOT of time trying to resolve this issue, I thought I would post what finally REVOLVED the issue. HT to Jason Filley – SnakeLegs

As SPELLED out in Jason's blog:
http://www.snakelegs.org/2012/05/07/java-2753-regutils-dll-error/

1. Run ProcMon (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645)
2. Within ProcMon, start monitoring just the process “msiexec.exe”
3. Start the Java installer
4. While the installer is running, keep an eye on your system clock - WATCH for the exact time when the installer fails.
5. Examine the ProcMon log - find the entries listed at the time the installer failed
6. If your issue was the same as mine (and Jason's), you will see in the 'Operation' column a 'RegOpenKey' entry pointing to a path of an old JRE key
7. Using RegEdit, search and delete all entries matching the key found in the previous step.

Note: it wouldn't hurt to backup your registry before deleting any entries...

Solve : Disable coloured blank tabbed lines in nano?

Answer»

Pretty much what it says on the TIN: how do you disable nano's strange feature of COLOURING the leading whitespace on a blank line. If you're writing a program with different amounts of tabs on each line then sometimes you'll leave a line blank to space things up to make it easier to read, but there will be unused tab characters on the line left blank as they're placed automatically. nano seems to think it appropriate to colour the line's tabs if it's blank, but actually it's DISTRACTING and out-of-place.And yes, I've googled this. I've actually googled several forms of the question with different phrasing, but maybe someone here is better at searching the internet than I am or knows nano better to search with the right terms?What is the model of your Nano?
I probably should have mentioned I'm using the text editor software, I'm using it on a Linux distribution, nano is version 2.2.6.Sorry, I thought you were using some kind of tablet.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_nano

The GNU nano is meant for people writing code. In code you WANT to see white space because it helps make the code pretty.

Starting a line with white space implies DEPENDENCY on lines above. It helps visual blocks.

Did you want a text editor with no built in inflections?
Yeah I did think that's why it was, it's just that a lot of my code wasn't written with that in mind and it could be easier to just disable that if at all possible.You need to edit your .nanorc file

Solve : How Do I know if I Need Java??

Answer»

I read that Java weakens your PC security and should be removed "if you do not need it". How can I determine if I need it? Thanks.You can search for "programs that use Java" and find many that do require it.
Windows does not automatically install it. Programs such as "Open Office" will install it when you install tat program.

Java is under the ownership on just one commercial importation.
Namely, Oracle Corporation. Therefore other companies may say negative things about nit for their own reasons.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_%28software_platform%29

Java is not JavaScript.
I use Java on some of my web pages.
Java was part of the Android system. **

** On August 12, 2010, Oracle sued Google over claimed infringement of copyrights and patents related to the Java programming language...
..Android did not infringe on Oracle's patents or copyright, that Oracle's patents were invalid, and several other defenses. ..
The above is arguable.

Does this help any?Quote from: artbuc on January 16, 2014, 06:41:07 PM

I read that Java weakens your PC security and should be removed "if you do not need it". How can I determine if I need it? Thanks.
If you do not want that to happen, don't use the computer. Serious and not joking. When you switch on the computer and connect to internet, you are already "vulnerable". Its not Java. Its about the things/software you use. An outdated web browser, unpatched operating system etc can contribute to that insecurity as well.Quote from: artbuc on January 16, 2014, 06:41:07 PM

If you install only the JRE and do not install the browser-plugins (which might require they be manually removed afterwards), whether you do or do not have Java installed will not have any salient security consideration.Quote from: BC_Programmer on January 17, 2014, 02:39:50 AM
If you install only the JRE and do not install the browser-plugins (which might require they be manually removed afterwards), whether you do or do not have Java installed will not have any salient security consideration.

Yes, that is my understanding based on something I just read. They also suggested disabling the java browser plug-in for a few weeks to see if it caused any issues. Thanks for all of your responses.Well, I have completed the Win 7 install and have downloaded most of my programs. Think I will not install Java until I am told it is necessary to accomplish a task.As far as i know, the JDK (Java Development Kit) also is required to install the SDK (Software Development Kit) of the most insecure mobile-Operating System ever been created called Android.Yeah, that's generally my approach - Only install Java needed (Although as I develop a lot in Java I generally do have it). You will know if you need Java as you will receive a message when you try to run a Java-requiring application telling you to install it.

Quote
I read that Java weakens your PC security
Java itself isn't a problem, it's the browser plugin that allows websites to "embed" Java programs, known as "Applets". The issue with Java applets lie in their power, they have very close abilities to that of a regular Windows .exe file however as it's in a browser, people tend to think of them like a Flash video rather than running a .exe file and don't give a second thought to allowing them to execute. So when you are asked to run a Java applet think "If this was a Windows .exe file instead of a Java applet, would I run it?"

Nowadays browsers will ask permission before launching a Java applet so if you do end up installing Java, just make sure you only agree to run a Java applet when you know what it does. Merely having Java on your PC isn't really a security issue, it's running Java applets that you don't trust that poses the main issues.

The JRE is not a viable attack vector unless it is installed as a browser plugin. While it's true that a successful attack could then run .class or .jar FILES only if the JRE is installed, it's also true that at that point it would not require any extra exploitation to simply install the JRE.

Security issues related to Java are solely with the Java Web Start and Java Applets, both of which, of course, require a Java plugin. The REASON that security issues do not apply to simply installing the JRE is because the run-time does not have any more access to the system than a standard desktop Java application; it is the applications that run under Java that are not SUPPOSED to have that full access, which the VM is supposed to prevent, that comprise the security vulnerabilities and exploits- only Java web start Applications and Applets fall into this category.

Some of these exploits and vulnerabilities are within the Base Class Library, of course- but they still only apply in the context of a browser plugin, because with a standard desktop application there is nothing to exploit by virtue of the application already having the same level of access that the run-time itself does.Quote from: artbuc on January 25, 2014, 05:20:57 PM

Solve : Microsoft Excel 2007 LOOKUP Alternative?

Answer»

Greetings.

I run Windows XP and Microsoft Office 2007. I don't think further specs will be pertinent to this situation.

I do not know a lot of database or spreadsheet jargon, so I may use confusing words.

I am beginning to think that LOOKUP might not be what I need to do what I am trying to do. All I want is for it to look at a cell reference, use the word therein to match up to the same word in another list, and then return with the adjacent number in the same row.

I do not explain THINGS well, so I will provide pictures as attachments. The words were all replaced with random ones for the purpose of these screen shots for privacy reasons. They may also be blurry because I saved them as jpegs set to high compression to lower their file sizes.

Anyhow, for the purposes of these images, I use the formula:

=LOOKUP(A35,DummyList,Sheet4!B3:B24)

Where A35 is assigned a word from the list on Sheet4 via a drop-down. The list is called DummyList. I then intend it to match the word in A35 to the word in the list on Sheet4, and then return the corresponding number. In this example, I selected the words Salt (in A33, and yes, the upper one is LOOKUP(A33....) and Forget. Beside them they should return the numbers 1.1 (Salt) and 2.1 (Forget). Instead I get 6.0 (Salt, and 1.0 (forget).

If I do it the other way, where it looks up the number and then returns the corresponding word, it is usually bang-on. Here it gets the wrong number, and doesn't give me an error.

Which brings me to the conclusion that LOOKUP is not going to do what I had hoped it would do, and I don't understand all of the FUNCTIONS, EVEN after reading some of the help files.

Can someone further explain the mechanics of LOOKUP and hopefully suggest something that will be more accurate? I need 'find word, retrieve adjacent cell', not 'find number, retrieve adjacent cell'.

I appreciate anyone who takes their time to read this, and apologize for my round-about way of TYPING and getting to the point. I've done SEARCHES, but could not come up with much help.

Solve : Option for 2nd monitor not working?

Answer»

I have 2 monitors and used to be able to go in to control panel, display, settings and extend to the 2nd one. Now it does not even show up. Any suggestions? The monitor that is working is plugged in to the same card, so I don't know what the problem could be.Sometimes the video cards have a driver utility that takes control over these options generally there is a tool to be found to access these features. Is this an ATI or nVidia video card or some other card to point you to the utility that might be present?

I have systems with both ATI (AMD) Radeon Video Cards as well as nVidia GeForce Video Cards and they each have a utility installed to configure dual displays and fine tune features.I don't know what kind of card it is. It was added by prior owner. As mentioned in first post-it used to work and now it does not. I opened the tower and the make is FATAL1TY. STRANGE that the VGA side works but the DVI side does not. I took the card out and put it back in hoping that when I restarted the computer it would search for drivers. Nope, nothing.
When I go to Device Manager there is nothing under Display adapters and there is a question mark next to "Other devices" and then under that it says Video CONTROLLER (VGA Compatible) with a question mark.

Very strange and frustrating.We still need the card info THOUGH...
DLoad install and run Speccy and see if all the details for the card are listed...if so Post back with the details.Operating System
Windows XP Professional 32-bit SP3

If it's not listed try SIW...
System Info for Windows...also Free...Nevermind, I got it fixed. When I took the card out and put it back in, the computer did not automoatically identify new hardware and offer to look for drivers. I WENT into add hardware and chose the video card and it downloaded them-GeForce 8500 GT.

So strange that it did this all of a sudden. Glad I have dual monitors now though!!

thank you for your prompt effort to help. Good to see that you got the problem worked out.

Looking at the info you SHARED... never knew that Dell used Fatal1ty gaming boards.

I had a similar Fatal1ty gaming board with SLI running Windows XP over 5 years ago with tons of RED surface mount LEDS everywhere so it came to life with a red glow in the tower, and integrated POST diagnostic Green LED readout. I got rid of this back in early 2009 when it sadly would not take a better than a Pentium 4 socket 775 CPU of which I had the 3GHz HT CPU, and games I played required a better ( true dual-core vs Hyperthreaded single-core ) CPU at the time because they were lagging out as the CPU was pegged at 90 to 100% for physical and virtual HT cores almost constant trying to keep up with Need for Speed Carbon and World of Warcraft. So I bought a cheap Dual-Core AMD CPU/Motherboard bundle which was 3x more powerful than it for $65 and was able to move my 1.5GB of 667Mhz DDR2 RAM and Video Card GeForce 7800GT over for the easiest Motherboard/CPU combo upgrade by using all the other original hardware from the Fatal1ty build which was all compatible with the newer dual-core upgrade. Sadly that Fatal1ty board would not take a Core 2 Duo, otherwise I'd probably be still running it today. I gave my board away to a friend who was hard up for a basic computer, and its still running today 5 years later. Good Motherboard, but sadly limited to Pentium 4 Class socket 775 CPU

But the AMD Dual-Core Motherboard/CPU combo upgrade now made these games play without lag that I had prior. I almost bought a new video card thinking it was video card related, but the CPU showing it pegged stood out that I needed more processing power as well as these games were suggesting Dual-Core CPU's for proper gameplay in the game spec requirements.

Are you gaming with this system with modern games? If so which ones and what type of performance are you getting out of it?

Looks like yours is also the 3Ghz HT P4 same as what I was running. I forgot that it was the P4 630.

Why is it when I receive a funny joke in my email box with pictures, then try to forward it to someone, the PERSON will receive the email, but all the picture boxes are blank? They can open up the email, but all they see is the outline of the picture, but no picture.Some more information WOULD be helpful. Are you using an email client (OUTLOOK Express, Windows Live Mail, etc.) or are you using webmail, i.e. accessing your email via web browser? If webmail, are you using Yahoo Mail, gmail, or what?

When you receive these emails, are the pictures included as Attachments, or are they embedded in the message? Right t clik the image in the email and save it to the desktop...
Then compose the e-mail and send it as an attachment...I receive an e-mail with multiple pictures but when I forward it some or all of the pictures are missing. I get a warning that they are missing with a question if I want to continue sending it anyway. I tried this in both live mail and g-mail (same message)same results.
I'm using a Dell with windows 7 and gobs of memory.

PLEASE! don't tell me how to fix the symptom. (Like sending it as an attachment) I want to know what the CAUSE is and fix it so it doesn't happen in the future. See above...the solution is simple.

What I need is an automated way to properly shut QB at 5pm automatically regardless of why it needs to happen.
The only real way to properly shut it down would to be at the computer.
Using any other task to forcefully shutdown Quickbooks could have undesirable consequences.

I asked earlier if you have remote access to your company's network. If so, you could remote into the computer and just shut it down.

The only other option I can think of is to use an AutoIt or AutoHotKey script. These programs can work with the graphical interface of the running programming and shut it down correctly.No I do not have remote access to my computer. Quote from: ktobiano on January 27, 2014, 07:44:45 AM

Yes, that is correct.

The main difference is simply that the program won't have a chance to do any appropriate housekeeping when it is closed. In this case it would not be able to save changes.

The only way to automate would be a VBScript, but that would require some knowledge of QuickBooks' Programming interfaces.
If you search on the AutoHotKey and AutoIt forums they have topics about closing Quickbooks.
http://www.autohotkey.com/board/
http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/After MUCH searching I was able to find a piece of freeware that works. It's called System Scheduler. PER the company:


"With the free version, you can have the Window Watcher feature to run at 5pm, and set the Window Watcher to close the APPLICATION. This does a normal close - not a Kill.

With the Professional version there are more options for closing programs, in the Run Application - Advanced tab there is an option to close the application after x minutes. You can download a 30 day evaluation from our website if you want to give it a try."

Like I said. AutoIt and AutoHotKey can do the same and GIVES you a little more flexibility with making sure that any changes you CURRENTLY made are saved and backed up before you close the program.

I haven't played much with VBscripts Sendkeys function but it could probably do it as well.

It is just a matter of how much control and flexibility you want. Sounds like you wanted a precooked application to do it. Hopefully System Watcher doesn't corrupt your Quickbooks database at all.type this in RUN :
shutdown -s -t [seconds left to shutdown]

Replace the [seconds left to shutdown] with the time to shutdown.For eg: if yu want to shutdown pc at 5pm and now time is 3pm just calculate 2*3600 = 7200. Then type there 7200 and when timer reaches 0 it will force shutdown. If you wannt to cancel timer just type in RUN:

Solve : How to perform an unattended installation?

Answer»

Please i need help on how to perform an unattended installation on system software and application software?Unattended install of Windows OS is easy.... Unattended install of OS + Software Applications = You will need to either create an image that will be used for the installation from a prior manual build process using software such as Ghost or use a Windows Server system and RIS or WDS depending on the Server version and the OS to be pushed to systems.

If this is a single computer or small group of computers and you dont have a Windows Server to set up RIS or WDS on then creating individual images is the best way to go. If you have hundreds or thousands of systems then you will want to use RIS or WDS to push an install to a system unless all workstations are the same exact model or you have say less than 10 different hardware configuration models in place to have 10 individual images for.

I have used RIS in the past and you are essentially able to boot a workstation system off of PXE Network Boot service that the RIS server is hosting and select an image to push to the workstation, the system then pushes the installation clean to this workstation as long as the network adapter driver matches to that of the RIS image. Otherwise RIS fails to connect between the Server and workstation. * One trick that I did was I bought some cheap PCI Intel Pro 100 Managed Network Adapters and so the systems that were not the Intel Pro 100 chipset, I would install this adapter temporarily to PXE boot and push the image to the workstation. Then when the system is done, remove this adapter and have the system run off of its other Broadcom etc adapter.

BUT.... With RIS and I believe also with WDS, you STILL need to activate the Windows Installation with MICROSOFT. Also you need to take a single system that is built the way you want all others built and use that to create the installation image for the other systems to be exactly configured to, however they are all running on their own Windows OS keys.

----------------------------

If going with an Image off of an external drive or DVD discs, the only problem you can run into is that its a static image and so all systems built from that image have the same Windows key. If there is a difference in hardware between the system that the image was created on and the system to take the image you can run into problems of a Blue Screen of Death or if your lucky will only have to REACTIVATE Windows with Microsoft within 30 days. Using an external drive is easiest as for your not swapping out DVD1 for DVD2 etc until all discs are installed of the spanned image so its the most realistic unattended installation where discs would require you to check on its progress and remove and insert the next disc etc. Also depending on what is installed it doesnt take long to end up with an image that is 9 DVD's spanned for 36GB for example with a build of Windows 7 64-bit with all updates up to the creation date of the image + MS Office + Accounting software + other software, printers, configurations, etc for a 45 minute build process if using external USB 2.0 hard drive etc to push the image.

-------------------------------------

Lastly the only drawbacks to RIS and WDS is that if you do this over the network during a time of the day when others need bandwidth and are running a 100mbps network, you will bring the network to its knees for a period of time. My employer did not want to justify upgrading to Gigabit Switches at this location and so I had to perform RIS installations after normal business hours for a while. But then I got my boss to authorize purchase of another Windows 2003 Server license and so I was able to host my own private network in my office that was isolated from the main LAN and I was able to basically pick up a system, set it up on the workbench, PXE boot it, authenticate with server, select image, push image, activate Windows XP Pro key, and then run MS Updates when connecting system to normal network. Then deliver it to the user about 1 hr later built like new from the RIS image. Over the private LAN it took about 20-25 minutes to push a 16.5GB image to HP SFF DC5000 Pentium 4 2.8Ghz systems with 512MB RAM and 80GB HDD's, and the private lan was flashing full bore to push the image to the system.

And the biggest PRO of using RIS or WDS is that you can have multiple systems ( workstations ) receiving this image installation at the same time. ( Although due to network bandwidth limitations, the more that are getting imaged, the longer the process takes to complete! ) The most I had getting an image at once was 20 workstations all getting a fresh install. These systems were part of an internal training room where the business hosted its own internal training program for existing and new employees and an instructor would demonstrate and users would be in this large room at their individual computers and follow along and learn how to do their jobs better or a new software application that is being pushed out to the 7 locations of the business. So when the course was done, I'd wipe them clean of any personal info and have them ready for the next training as clean workstations. I basically started the 20 at the same time on like a Friday and then would check back into work on Saturday and activate the XP keys and have the training classroom I guess you COULD call it ready for class that Monday all fresh ready to roll.

Solve : Setting Microsoft Word Margin Defaults Across a Network?

Answer»

Objective:
To set up a default margin of 0.3 for the top, bottom, left and right margins.
This is to conserve paper. My school is running far far short of funding for paper, in fact, we already hit the end of our paper budget, and its an extreme problem.

Cutting margins by default WOULD help us out greatly. We would like to KNOW how we can set up these kinds of defaults, erase currently existing defaults, and then distribute the new ones.

We have an idea of distributing the new ones, and that is by using our Ghost server which is capable of sending files to the select groups of computers we desire. (Which, is all student computers, not teacher laptops or computers).

I prefer not having to do this through GPO, since I know I cant get the network guys to do it, but, if thats the only solution, I can make it happen... even if it requires I break into the server room and do it myself.

Operating systems being dealt with:
Windows XP, primarily, as well as a few 2000 machines. Main focus on the XP machines.

Users do need to be able to change margins, for professional documents mainly. The BEST part about Ghost doing all this would be that we can just target student computers, not teacher computers. You need to do this in Group Policy, especially so that you can limit this to students, not teachers. In our SCHOOLS we have WRITTEN our own Print Auditor/Limiter based on Windows Print Server but it basically operates like this commercially available package:

http://www.pharos.com/Higher_Education/Uniprint.html

We do want students to be able to change their margins if they need to print a professional letters and scholarships. Would that still work?

It would be a problem to have to buy software though, this is for two reasons:
1, Were out of money for everything!
2, Even if we did have the money, it wouldent all make sense to anyone in Administration here.

Solve : VSO Software/Hardware Problem?

Answer»

Not sure about which forum, software/hardware? Possibly more software than anything. Anyways...
I have a reasonably new Samsung Writemaster burner (which SHOWS up as TSST Corp cd/dvdw sh-s182d) in the properties tag and I use Philips dvd+rw disks for their (and other +rw brands) reusable value.
For burning software l'm using VSO convertxtodvd. (there is only one version installed, but my problem happens with both versions 2 and 3).
So, l insert the disk and it says new disk installed. It initialises, burns, and the disk is formatted and ejected. When l use explore on the disk, there's nothing on it! Run the disk through Imgburn (VERIFY) and it says the disk is empty and needs formatting.
I cannot seem to use this disk again for anything, as it just won't be burnt to. I bought a spindle of 25 disks and at least 10, and counting, seem to have this problem. COULD it be the disks? Could it be the burner? Could it be the software?
Not too worried if there is not a specific answer to this, just some suggestions about what l could look for.
Thanks

from an end user perspective, they are useful for documents intended solely for printing.

However as a electronic medium for viewing on the PC they kind of suck.

I totally agree with this. A website I maintain for a school in Thailand distributes documents, BOOKS, LESSON plans, etc. in PDF format to their TEACHERS all over Bangkok and other locations in Thailand to print at their location. Bangkok's size, the location of the company's school contracts, and traffic make it impractical to deliver these by hand on a weekly basis. It also has saved them money since they don't have to buy a license for other products for every computer the files will be used on.

These files are made from a single computer which has licensed versions of several Adobe products and MS Office (mostly made with Publisher, but Word and Excel sometimes as well). When the document is ready, it's "printed" into a PDF (with doPDF or CutePDF) and slapped on the website. The schools can then print off a master copy to take to a local copy shop for reproduction. (Something like 80 schools all over Bangkok and Thailand.)

However, as for something to sit at the computer and read, it's not very practical.Quote from: BC_Programmer on April 21, 2009, 08:07:40 AM
I mean, Adobe took something simple- Viewing PDF files, and managed to create a behemoth that is so unweildy it takes over a minute to start up on a average machine.
Hmm, sounds like somebody needs to some serious PC tuneup. Adobe 8 launches in 2-3 seconds on both my Win XP desktop (Athlon XP 2200, 512MB) machine and my Vista laptop (Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core, 1.7GHz, 2GB), both of which I would consider "average", perhaps even below average, machines. Adobe Reader performance has varied from one version to another. Version 6 was quite bad, then Adobe got the message and made version 7 much speedier in launching.

I, personally, like PDFs. They are very handy at times, especially for printing forms.
I agree. I do some tax work. All federal tax forms can be downloaded and, if printed from Adobe Reader, produce exact replicas of the standard forms. And, IRS tax publications can also downloaded in PDF and read in a PDF reader. Likewise, for state tax forms and publications and many local (city and school district) tax forms. Many, if not all, federal forms can be filled out in Adobe Reader and saved with the entered data retained.

I would think the benefit of PDF is obvious. It's a universal format, meaning anyone can view it because PDF readers (Adobe, FOXIT, etc.) are free.

I think I do agree with the comments about reading lengthy documents. To read an e-book on the computer screen is not particularly appealing. But, for shorter documents, such as forms, newsletters, shorter user manuals, etc., PDF makes a lot of sense, in my opinion. It's a good way to distribute such material and know that the recipient will be able to view it.

And, yes, it's also a "green" thing. It is a paper-saving technique.
the last time I used Reader was on my 350Mhz machine. Obviously not fast, but since foxit reader started in less then ten seconds, it seemed stupid to take so much longer for Reader.pdf only good for viewing. i agree, foxit reader is faster and small in size compare to adobe.

up until today, i can't figure out how to read pdf and insert the contents to database without paying, had to save it in csv format. so keeping 2 types, pdf & csv. pdf for human to read, csv for computer to read.Quote from: Reno on April 23, 2009, 10:13:53 AM

PDF was designed for viewing documents, not to be a data source for a database, spreadsheet, etc. It doesn't even make sense to discuss PDF as a data source for .csv files to be fed into some other application.

Yep, that's true, and I agree it is sufficient for many users. But, I believe Adobe Reader has some extra bells and whistles that some users may like having, and those extra features explain it's larger size.Quote from: soybean on April 23, 2009, 12:32:18 PM

distributing documents as pdf is like distributing text file in .jpg format.
if i have hundreds of pdf files in a folder and need to extract few numbers from it, then i have to torture my self viewing the pdf one by one, scrolling down, and manually input to db. **sigh**
somemore, data can become garbage because of human error while inputting, and then garbage data will cause fatal result in decision making.

why people love to distribute documents in pdf format? html, chm, word or anything else other than pdf would be better.Quote from: Reno on April 23, 2009, 09:51:09 PM

Most of that makes ABSOLUTELY no sense.Quote from: kpac on April 24, 2009, 09:55:30 AM

Not only did it not make sense, the parts that did make sense are inaccurate.

The content inside a PDF is selectable, copyable, searchable and, with the right program, editable.

Solve : How to change .IFO/.VOB to MPEG ??

Answer»

How do I CHANGE a vob and ifo file into mpeg? Have SEVERAL videos from home camcorder that I need to change to mpg format to be able to edit, then play on my computer. Can anyone tell me how to do this? You need software to do it, not sure of free stuff but have a search, commerically, I think http://www.dvdvideoconverter.com/vob/ does it and Nero.Just a note, the video file is .VOB. All the SUBTITLE, track titles, chapters, ect, are in the .IFO file.

In other words, you WOULD want to convert the .VOB to ANOTHER format, such as .AVI, which can be processed in Windows Movie Maker.

On a second note, you can play the .VOB file with VLC Media Player.A VOB file is actually an MPEG-2 file. Change the extension to .mpg

Solve : Can't open PSP9?

Answer»

I can not open Paint shop pro 9. I just restored my computer. I reinstalled everything. The computer runs good, but I can't open PSP9. I have XP. My desktop is a HP. Any help WOULD be great.

ThanksMe too. I had an experience like that. I had to install XP all over again. Do not install the AV until the install is complete. This means you have to have all your stuff on a local media, CD or another HDD. Paint shop has to be one of the last thins you install. Except the AV program.
And no, I don't know why. Spent days and days and days on it.It was the last thing I installed. I had to install it on my laptop, but I would love it to be on my desktop. So frustrating.If you want to pursue this, here is what I might do.
Create a new partition on my desktop PC. large enough to hold a bare XP install. About 7GB should do. Install a bare XP with no updates. The new install will update BOOT.INI so that you have a Multi boot system.

Do not connect to the Internet. No other programs. Just install Paint Shop Pro. You may get a good install this time

This is one good reason to have Multi boot.Sometimes you have programs that just do not get along and the have to be in each in a separate little world.

Such programs remind us of some people!I am not sure if I know how to do that. Sorry, do not MEAN to make it HARD.
http://www.easeus.com/product.htm#Title2
This is a partition program that I have used. But you should not try it unless you have a backup of some kind. There is always the possibility that this kind of software =can go bad. I hive never had this one fail, so I would recommend it.
What it does is like the re size feature in Vista. But this will WORK with XP or 2000 or almost any version of Windows. You reduce the size of you main Hard Drive partition by a few gigabytes, Say 7GB. Then you reboot and put in the XP setup CD and run a new install of WINDOW XP in the new or free space of the drive.The new XP will go onto D: instead of C:. I do that so that I can have another environment to try something the does not seem to work right on my main system.And sure 'nuff. I find things that do not work well in the big partition, but will work in the new, smaller partition. Not sure why. Just had a program like that with my Speech Recognition software. And had whet with Paint Shop Pro.

Solve : Can't download .mov from Nikon S6 camera?

Answer»

I have an HP PAVILLION 64 bit, with Service Pack 1 (4gb, 500gb) with Vista Home Premium. I'm trying to download a .mov file from my Nikon S6 camera. I'm using the HP Photosmart Essential program. It DOWNLOADS jpg files fine but it skips the .mov file. I can VIEW the file on the camera. The number of the .mov file, DSCN 1733 is skipped on the download so I know it is on the camera. And the same program downloaded .mov files from the same camera automatically with my old computer ( with XP). Help! What's wrong? Is there a SETTING somewhere I need to change? I think it's a limitation for 64 bit PC's - seems to be a common issue. Might need a update for QUICK time...

Solve : Compaq Recovery System Help !?

Answer» HI. My computer wasn't starting up and had some problems so i decided to do the Compaq RECOVERY System. Most of my programs are working perfectly fine and i have all the documents i had before but I really need Microsoft word, power point, excel and all that stuff which i had INSTALLED before. They were working perfectly before i did the recovery but now they just wont open and it say program not installed or something. Also, when i connect my printer with a USB it doesn't seem to work when i try to print something! I desperately need my computer for homework so please help me recover these Microsoft programs and help me connect my printer. Thank You SO Much. When you used Compaq Recovery, the computer was reset to its original state.
Whatever programs were installed later (like Office) MUST be reinstalled.
Do you have Office CD?
If not, you'll have to buy it, or switch to free OpenOffice: http://www.openoffice.org/

As for the printer, most LIKELY, you need to reinstall printer's driver.

1)Open the file you want to slice by clicking on File, and from there CHOOSE Open.

2)SELECT the slice tool and draw a box to DEFINE the area you want to slice.

3)Next, Go to the slice tool in the menu palette and select the Slice Select Tool. Now double click on the slice. A screen named Slice Options will come.
a)In the Slice Type option choose Image
b)In the name option GIVE your slice a name
c)In the URL option enter the path of the image you want to link.
d)Then you will see 4 more options, these options are optional , and leaving them blank won't effect your slice.

4)To Optimize and Save a file , on the file menu , click save for web and devices.
The Save for web and devices dialog box will be displayed. Now, you can click any one of the tabs available to select a DISPLAY option.Then , click Save.
