    $99 InstallShield come-on has catches

    Dave, I don't know who said it first but - "The worst day of fishing beats the best day at work." Actually, what I would love to do is to rebuild a 1960's muscle car i.e GTO, Nova, Road Runner, etc. But that means getting Mrs. Eguy to vacate the garage and park on the street, and I don't see...

    Restrict Users

    Keune; Control Panel opens an applet for each .CPL file it finds in the %systemroot%\system32 folder.

    Labelling CD's

    TonyGroves, Full surface or “donut-style” labels are preferable to partial stickers as the latter can potentially upset the balance of a disc when playing back, especially at high speeds, causing excessive noise, vibration and data retrieval problems. Plus they look more professional. Ed...

    VFP9 and indexseek issue?

    mkrausnick, I whole-heartedly agree with dbMark and Volker. It has been my experience that whenever you change an index value when that index is active, all bets are off. It is sure to come back and bite you in the #%&. Maybe not all the time, but it will eventually. My $0.02 Ed Please let...
