I am quite ignorant with this software. I've never worked with it, and have received no training on the software at all. We also have no documentation on site that I am aware of. Could you tell me, what does the file validation process do and is it data safe? I'm concerned that I may do...

I am new to the Macola ERP software, and have had no training whatsoever. I am the administrator of the server and working on an issue that has been here since I started with the company, and our support doesn't really support us... I am having an issue with the reset allocations process. I...

I can't really see where there would be an issue, but is it safe to move universal distribution groups out of the Users OU in Active Directory to another OU specifically made to hold only distribution groups? This isn't a necessary move, it'd just be nice to do some housekeeping in AD so things...

Ok, nevermind. This was me missing the glaringly obvious.... I didn't have the checkmark selected for applying to XP/2000/2003.....

So someone tried to set up folder redirection prior to me starting at my current position....I say try because it was a failure. The permissions weren't set correctly at the root share, so it was kind of a hit/miss type of deal on the user folders below. I have since set up the permissions on...

Ok, so update on the situation.... There are 3 machines that I am working with to test this problem out.... All 3 running Windows 7 Pro x64 as domain members All 3 running Office 2010 1 machine has been in place for a few months 1 machine was put in place last week The machine I am working on...

I will certainly check trusted documents settings and give that a try. At this point I have moved the files to a new directory with a different set of perms (a security group instead of 25 individual users), same issue. Though now when the users save, the System service (PID 4) resets the...

The NTFS permissions are indeed set to inherited. I thought it might be the AV grabbing an exclusive lock on the file as soon as the file is created when Excel copies the working temp file to the original file name during a save. But I disabled the AV and the incident still occurred. I also...

I am thinking this may not be an office problem but a windows problem, but since it only happens when using excel, I am posting here.... There is a shared folder on the network with excel files (.xls not .xlsx) that people with newer versions of office have shared. Now I understand that when...

I am trying to get GPP printers to work at the computer configuration level as users OU membership doesn't necessarily organize user accounts based on printer proximity. So I want to put the computer accounts in OUs in this manner. I would rather not use the Print Management to deploy printers...

Ok, nevermind. I found the setting. Under the Computer Configuration | Policies | Administrative Templates | System | Verbose vs normal status messages.

This may sound a bit odd, but I was wondering if there is a way to display what GPO activity is taking place during logon. For instance, I have mapped drives configured in group policy preference, and during logon it would be nice to see something along the lines of "Apply group policy drives...

Indeed xwb you are correct. I ended up checking if compositing was enabled, and checking the registry for the PaddedBorderWidth value and adjusting the offsets based on this value rather than setting a default and allowing the value to be changed manually. Thanks for the tip.

Nevermind. I dumbly checking the return value for the function, not the parameter passed in that gets updated to reflect the status.

Is there a way to detect if Aero glass themes are enabled on Vista/7? It seems that windows reports sizes with GetWindowRect/DwmGetWindowAttribute incorrectly when glass themes are enabled (off by about 5 pixels). I have been looking, and all suggestions say to check if composition is enabled...
