    Logon prompt query

    Also if you don't want to make this change permanent and only need it to log in as Administrator once or periodically, you can press CTRL-ALT-DEL twice at the "friendly" login prompt you mentioned and it will toggle betwen the two login screens. Hope that made sense.

    This applies to Win 2000, but may be of some relevance: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;265829 It might be corrupted IE settings. You might try re-installing Internet Explorer to see if that correts the problem.

    NO SOUND WITH SOME FILES

    I forgot to mention how to get there in case you are unfamiliar. Go to Start\Settings\Control Panel From here select "Sounds and Audio Devices". This should open up the Sounds and Audio Devices Properties window. This first tab is "Audio". From this tab, click on "Advanced" Good Luck

    NO SOUND WITH SOME FILES

    I would first check your volume control. I've seen this happen before where I can play a DVD because the volume is up, but when I try to play an audio file, it has no sound because the "Wave" portion is muted. I would check this first to ensure nothing is muted.

    Is it possible to merge .pst files - Outlook 2003

    Does anyone know of a way to merge two .pst files in MS Outlook? I'm looking to merge two .pst files without having to drag and drop the contents of each folder from one to the other. Is this possible somehow? Also, if possible, will this merge detect duplicate messages?

    Sorry just re-read your post...it needs to be named Backup_Event.kix so that answers one of my questions, but I still get the error message: Script error : expected expression !. $RCODE = BackUpEventLog("Security", "C:\BACKUP.EVT")

    Schedule a Task that will archive event log

    Thank you bcastner...this is exactly what I've been searching for. I found the third party tools you mentioned along with a couple others, but I was really wanting to script it myself. Thanks for the link to the REXX script!
