Hi, First, thanks to bcastner for his tips. I finally figured out that it was IE7 (beta) screwing up the search function. I won't be downloading this 'critical update' unless I'm certain that this bug is fixed! basicbill

Hi, I have created several symbols that I would like to access in the symbol library. I don't know what file type to save as, nor do I know where the symbol library is located. I am presently using WP 11. Am I able to import my own symbols? And, if so, where do I put them? Many thanks, basicbill

Hi, I recently noticed that I have lost the 'right click' search option in windows explorer. The option still shows up but when I click on it, nothing happens....no search dialog box....no error message either. My google research has led me to ZoneAlarm causing this in some instances but I...

Hey Skip, I checked all printer settings and there is nothing out of the ordinary. The graphics show up nicely on the computer screen but are black boxes when printed. I used an alternate wordprocessor to view and print the document for testing purposes. OpenOffice would open and print the...

Hi, Running MS Word 2003 and this morning I tried to print a document. All graphics boxes print black. Big black squares. Originally created on MS Word 2000 and trying to print from Word 2003 Any thoughts? tia, Bill W.

Many thanks Chris. That did the trick!

Hi everyone, Is there an easy way to put an overscore on a character? In electronics there is an indicator that requires a line to be placed above a letter. I am using MS Office Word 2003. Thanks, Bill W.

Hi, I am looking for some info on how to remove an annoying artifact from my computer. My searching has revealed that it is a trojan called Istbar.CB . Apparently, it has something to do with a toolbar for IE but I certainly didn't deliberately download it. I use Firefox. IE is now automatically...

Hi, I am trying to install win98se on an old presario 1210. (Pentium 200) with 128Mb of ram. The install seems to go fine until the final reboot and when the desktop appears the cdrom is nowhere to be seen. Not in explorer, my computer or even from the cli. This is puzzling since the cdrom is...

Hi, This is a cross post, because I'm utilizing 2 separate office applications. When I 'copy' a black and white image (drawing) from Word2003 to WP11 the image becomes very pixellated and has very poor resolution when printed. Is there a method that I'm missing or is it to do with a proprietary...

Hi Baz, Thanks for the quick reply. I actually have imported into GIMP and tried to save in all the formats...bmp, png, tif, jpg, gif etc.....but all default back to the (poor) resolution. I am actually trying to copy a drawing from Word 2003 and paste it into a Wordperfect 11 document. The WP...

Hi, Graphics print out beautifully when opening my documents in Word 2003. However, when I try to copy and paste into a different application the graphics get very poor. I use mostly black and white drawings and electrical circuit type drawings but I would like to maintain the sharp resolution...

doh! Overlooking the obvious. Thanks for the kick in the pants. Problem solved.

Hi, A failed program installation has left me unable to remove its remains. The program froze during installation to the point of a hard reset (Dell laptop). I tried add/remove, but it couldn't find uninstall information. There is a directory un Program Files with a couple of .tmp files and...

Thanks JR, now .... manouvering in dos....is there a way to autocomplete commands? For instance just getting to \Programs Files\core app\subdir1\subdir2 requires a lot of typing. I know in linux hitting the tab will autocomplete or give a list of possibles; kind of like when IE autocompletes a...

Hi, I have a directory filled with files that have no file extensions that I have copied over from linux. Every time I want to open one the application dialog box opens and I have to manually choose Wordpad. Without file extensions I don't even have the option to make it sticky. They are merely...

Hi, I can get IE 5.5 to open links in GW6.0 but I would like to use MozillaFirebird instead. When I make MF my default browser no links (in GW email) will open at all. Is this a Moz problem or am I forced to use IE with GW? tia, Bill W.
