    IE Auto Login Script for Password Protected Site

    For work I use a web-based CRM that logs users out after 20mins of inactivity (system setting that admin will not change, so you get up to go to the restroom, get a coffee, etc, come back and you have to log in again.) I would like to save an executable to my desktop that, when clicked, will...

    Data Map

    Thank you for your suggestions. Access sounds like an easy way to go about it. Are there any lasting effects to be aware of? I would not want anything I do to actually cause changes on the sql database. Once I have the documentation how can I remove the connection?

    Newsletter template created in Word - Distorted when Emailed

    Is there a better application to use... the original newsletter was created in publisher, but I'm not aware of how to mail merge using a publisher doc and an excel report. Another thought was to save the file as a pdf, thus preserving the layout, but this would be an attachment as opposed to...
