    MS Oulook 2003 error - "Can't Create File"

    As soon as you try to rename or do anything with the attachment, that error pops up. We don't have any security in place that would prevent the rtf files. I open them just fine. I was thinking it could be related to a bad file in the OLK* directory that shows up as the default save location...

    When you click on a pull-down menu in any Office app you get that annoying down arrow at the bottom of the menu instead of displaying all of the menu items. If you hover long enough or click on the down arrow the full menu appears. How do you get rid of that down arrow and make all office apps...

    Who is logged on?

    Is there a way I can find out what username is logged onto a XP Pro workstation using either the computer name or IP address of the workstation? I tried the nbtstat -a command in DOS and it doesn't show a username. Active Directory doesn't list a username on the computer name properties.

    I have a W2K Server SP4 box and keep getting Event ID: 7022 in Event Viewer in the System section "The DHCP Server hung on starting". And of course the users cannot get an IP address. All the NIC TCP/IP properties for Default Gateway, IP Address, Subnet Mask, DNS, etc. are correct. Any Ideas?

    Sounds like the drive is being assigned a drive letter that it in use by another drive or network resource. Go into computer management (right-click My Computer and choose Manage) and click on disk manager. You can see which drive letter is trying to be assigned to the USB disk. If that drive...
