    Peer-to-peer network insanity

    I certainly have read that the sharing automatically goes down the tree, but it doesn't seem to really happen. If you look at the sharing flags for those subfolders, they are NOT set, and when I try to go into them from another computer on the net, I get a sharing violation. It may be that I...

    Peer-to-peer network insanity

    I have a related question. Is there a way to set (or clear) the sharing flag for a folder and have it then apply to all the subfolders automagically. It would be great to have a tool that would let you set or clear the sharing flags for whole trees of file systems..have something like the type...

    Peer-to-peer network insanity

    Thank you very much for the suggestions. I will look at and try them all. Let me just correct a couple of things in case they make a difference. It was the XPpro system with the printers that was ghost'ed. The XPhome system was not touched in any way, but it was the one that was isolated...

    Peer-to-peer network insanity

    I have a small, in-home peer-to-peer network with 2 XP professional nodes and 1 XP home node. One of the XP pro nodes has 2 printers on it that are shared over the network by the other 2 systems. I have a Linksys wireless router that attaches by cable to the system with the printers and by...

    Connect to Access using C#

    Apparently the forum is neither too cluttered nor your time too valuable to keep you from searching out people to critisize. It's a dirty job, but then somebody's got to do it. What a valuable service you perform! How would the rest of us get by without you. Although it's clear from your...

    Connect to Access using C#

    Dear NeilTrain I don't mean to sound rude, but you did sound rude. I have two large books on .NET and this is not chapter 1 in either of them. I have searched the net and found examples of accessing sqlserver, excel, using visual basic or C++, but not what I need. I guess I am just "LAZY"...

    Connect to Access using C#

    I need to connect to an Access database from a C# program so I can issue SQL commands (queries and nonqueries) to it, and I don't have the faintest idea how the go about it. I'm working in Visual Studio 2003 and the database is already created. Can someone show me how, or point me in the right...

    USING FIXED WIDTH FONTS!

    Can someone, anyone, maybe even someone from Microsoft, please tell how to make fixed width fonts work with a dot matix printer such as my Okidata ML391. I running Windows XP and printing from Visual Studio. When I select a fixed width font so that the printer will print faster using its own...

    USING FIXED WIDTH FONTS!

    Can someone, anyone, maybe even someone from Microsoft, please tell how to make fixed width fonts work with a dot matix printer such as my Okidata ML391. When I select a fixed width font so that it will print faster using its own internal font instead of the bit mapped TrueType fonts, it prints...

    Dot matrix printer vs. XP

    I'm a Windows XP and VS.NET user. I have an Oki ML391turbo dot matrix printer on my system. When I print out listings from within VS, the printing is not spaced correctly, either horizontally or vertically. Windows overrides the front panel setup of the printer and, using True Type fonts, is...

    Dot matrix printer with VS.net and XP

    I'm a Windows XP and VS.net newbie, so be gentle. I like my listings on fanfold paper for debugging, so I bought an Oki ML391 turbo dot matrix printer. I hooked it up and everything works great except that when I print out listings from within VS, it sends out printer formatting commands that...

    C++ interface to hardware

    I need to write some code in Visual Studio which interfaces directly with the serial, parallel, and keyboard ports of the PC. I have many years of experience doing this in assembley language in embedded systems, but when I try to understand what the Microsoft C++ programmers have provided to...

    Saving settings from a corrupted XP Pro installation

    Thanks for your help. I know that the Files and Settings Transfer tool is configurable, but the files and folders are not self explanatory, so I'm not sure what I need and what I don't. I'm not immersed enough in XP and Office to know. I wish there were some documentation, or some 3rd party...

    Saving settings from a corrupted XP Pro installation

    I'm running XP Pro and it must be corrupted in some way because when I try to install SP2, it dies a horrible death, and my system along with it. I have backups, but they are obviously of the corrupted system. I would like to save the settings, favorites, and emails from IE and Outlook and...

    something invading Internet Explorer

    Thanks for these great replies. My only question at this point is this: when I run spybot (and probably when I run the others, too) it finds lots of stuff. I have no idea what it is or whether it is bad or good. Should I just assume that it is all bad and have it fix all of it? As you can...

    something invading Internet Explorer

    Something has invaded my IE and sets the home page to something like "Icanfindit.com" or something like that. I reset it to what I want but the next time I come it's been put back to this page. It's very irritating. Does anyone know what this is and how to get rid of it? I've also had...
