Thanks for your reply.
It's on a laptop so using its touchpad. It also happens with Ctrl-C/V, dragging an item from one folder to another, or using Send To to send the file to removable disks etc.
This happens for any user and in Safe Mode.
Do you think running a repair on Windows might...
Hello,
I have a strange problem with Vista (Home Premium) where in the first instance of copying/cutting/pasting/dragging-dropping/Send To... of each computing session, I need to perform the operation twice. The first time it does nothing, and from then on it seems fine.
Not a major problem...
As Vragabond said, your options are limited and you may decide that those available to you aren't worth the hassle.
However... You could probably create an ActiveX object for this, although there are many other implications in doing so and I wouldn't personally recommend it.
Another way is to...
Thanks,
Works well.
Here's what I have now...
Sub openWord(sFilename)
Set oShell = CreateObject("wscript.shell")
Set oWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
oWord.Visible = True
oWord.Documents.Open(sFileName)
oShell.AppActivate "Microsoft Word"
Set oWord = nothing
Set oShell =...
Hello,
I have a script which opens a file in Word:
Sub openWord(sFilename)
Set oWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
oWord.Visible = True
oWord.Documents.Open(sFileName)
Set oWord = nothing
End Sub
Currently this creates a Word instance behind any existing applications. What I...
Hello,
If I have a form in datasheet view, can I invoke a command when one of the rows is clicked, wherever the row is clicked?
I want to fire off an event which uses the ID column of the clicked row, but the closest I can get is with the onClick of the form, which only works when the grey...
As you mentioned, the way to get cookies to persist is to set the expiration date to far in the future. If you don't do this, the cookie is deleted when the session ends, so it effectively acts as a session variable (but its value is stored on the client, not the server).
When you set the...
Hello,
If I shell out to a .bat file, is it possible to return any output back to the ASP directly, or do I need to write the output to a text file, then read that back in?
At the moment I have the following:
Dim objShell, iReturn
set objShell = server.createobject("wscript.shell")
iReturn =...
Hello,
Hopefully this will be a pretty straightforward question...
I have a table, with many values foreign keys to data in other tables.
I want to create a form in order to add new records to this table. I need the form to have drop-downs showing the text values from the other tables, which...
I am inexperienced with Access programming and am having trouble with linked forms.
There are two tables as follows:
Contacts

Contact ID (Replication ID)
Surname
Forename
etc
Notes
-----
Note ID
Contact ID
Note Date
Note Header
Note Text
Created By
The user selects a Contact, and...
Hello,
I have a parameter query, and a form that is run by a report to provide the parameters. This works fine apart from one aspect -- if I cancel (and close) the parameter form, the query still prompts for the missing parameters.
Is there a way to just exit the whole lot without these...
Hello,
Is it possible to call a SQL statement from a script (Bourne Shell) and assign its output to a variable - if possible without having to create and delete temp output files?
The SQL is a Count query, that will return one value. I want to use this value for comparisons within the script...
You'll probably find more resources doing a search on ASP and JScript (Microsoft's version of Javascript, and technically what is used when you write ASPs in Javascript).
Have a look at thread333-715844 for more info.
If you search "thumbnail" at www.download.com you'll get loads of different ones (both free and demos/shareware). I'm afraid I haven't used any myself so you'll have to experiment with the ones you find to see which one suits your needs the most.
Blackduck, I think the way you described is best. It would allow summary thumbnails to be loaded quickly, and the user could then decide which larger image they would like to see. There is free software available to convert batch images into thumbnails.
There are other ways, included the...
Hello
I am trying to define the document.domain value in two pages so some javascript can interact two pages on different servers (at the moment I can't host them on the same one). Page 1 is on, say, sub1.domain.com, and can be loaded in the browser by just typing "sub1" (so its...
Ok, I've sort of got this. The problem was caused because the site I was trying to set up the host headers for was on port 85, not default 80. The DNS was obviously pointing to the default port and showing the wrong website.
However, I know the port number is irrelevant on the DNS, so is...
