    Print suitable message when subreport is empty?

    Sometimes I have this problem. I put a period in a blank field to force the headings to print. Yes, the period shows up on the report. But it is not too noticeable.

    Photoshop thumbnail in Explorer

    I installed Photoshop CS2 and now all of my Photoshop thumbnails in Explorer only has a PS icon. I heard it is because Adobe disabled them to make you use Bridge. Does anyone know an easy way to get them back.

    Jpg association image

    This is starting to sound more like a virus. I would try to run a couple different virus scans. Not all virus scans pick up everything. That is why I suggest a couple different ones. Also down load something like Adaware. This is free and gets rid of adware stuff. Microsoft also has a free...

    Jpg association image

    I have never heard of blank.exe. What program are you trying to use to open these files? Are you able to open that program OK by clicking directly on that program? Maybe it needs reinstalled. I always associate GIF & JPG to the windows explorer. It is just quick and easy that way. I use...

    Menu options hide!

    I have two suggestions. I have seen weird things like this with memory problems. Check to see what all is running. Chances are this isn't the problem. My second suggestions is check the screen resolution. I don't know why, but when I have had computers set to True Colors or 24 bit color I...

    Jpg association image

    Open up windows explorer. Click on Tools, Folder Options, File Types. Find the JPG in the list and delete it all together. The next time you click on a JPG it should ask you what program you want to open it with. Click on your program and make it the default. This usually works for me.

    Lost access to a USB external harddrive.

    I agree with tbt103. Go out to CNET or some other download place and download trial software. If the software looks like it is going to work for you, then you pay for it to use it. There are many different kinds of recovery software. Research and pick one that you like.

    Seagate HD Crash & Can't Recover

    I have a 30 Gig Seagate 7200 HD. I was afraid it had been compromised so I was getting ready to reformat anyway, but I didn't get my information off of it. One day it was taking too long to shut down, so I turned the power off. Stupid, stupid thing to do. Next time I tried to turn my...

    pcmcia Drive letter not showing up

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4200. It was having some problems and I downloaded and installed new drivers. Everything seems to work fine, except the compact flash card is not showing up in the drive letters. I check the slot and it shows something is there, however, I can't find it in the...

    want Word Text Form Field to ask Question Like Fillin

    OK, I have tried this several different times. It kind of works. When I go to protect the document, a box pops up promting me for my input. But, after I save the document and try to use it as a template, the pop up boxes don't appear. Im I doing something wrong?

    want Word Text Form Field to ask Question Like Fillin

    I am creating a letter that will ask information once and enter the info in several other places on the letter. Someone suggested to use a text form field to collect the info and use a REF to retrieve it. This works great. However, I want a popup box to ask the user to put the info in. I...

    Scanning document into Word to enable editing

    I have tried this before with Word 2000. All I got was a JPG file inserted into the word document. I believe you need somekind of software with your scanner to make an editable document. My cheap HP scanner came with that option. You probably have it already. Try scanning the document from...

    File locked by user

    Yes, I have had that problem. Sometimes just shutting down the machine and rebooting helps, but if not, try this. Open the file as read only, then save the file as a different name. If you need to have the same name, move the file to a different directory and name it the same name. After you...

    Word- FORMTEXT, REF & MERGEFORMAT question

    In case anyone is wondering. I finally found an answer on Microsoft's site. This is a glitch and if you change the MERGEFORMAT TO CHARFORMAT it seems to keep the formatting. ex. {REF CoName \*CHARFORMAT}

    Word- FORMTEXT, REF & MERGEFORMAT question

    I used a form text box and called it CoName. Elsewhere on the document I used {REF CoName \*MERGEFORMAT}. The problem is, I want the Ref field to be formatted differently than the form text box. I read that's what the Mergeformat is for. However, if the company name is more than one word...

    Freaky Keystroke Problem

    I have never heard of the problem before. My first thought would be to check to see if you have a hidden macro causing the problem.

    Database doesn't work from CD

    I designed a database which contains products, descriptions and prices. It seems like it works fine on the hard drive. I burned it onto a cd and when I click on the forms that search the database, they are blank. No data or buttons or anything. Has anyone ever tried to run a database from...
