    Access 2003 Reinstalls Every Time

    Side note: I couldn't remove Office XP from my workstation once the group policy was disabled without running the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility, as the professional IT guy I called out completely removed the installation media from the server before I had a chance to uninstall from the...

    Access 2003 Reinstalls Every Time

    Thanks for the response! Please bare with me, as I am by NO means a pro. I also think I've figured out what my next move should be just by your train of logic... Answers: 1) I did try a repair of Office, without success. 2) This was actually the result of an uninstall/reboot/wait, why is...

    Access 2003 Reinstalls Every Time

    Hi! I previously had Office XP installed via Group Policy on several workstations, and for various reasons outlined elsewhere on the site, I upgraded to Office 2003. At the time I upgraded, I didn't know anything about what a Group Policy was (our IT guy left the company some time back, and as...

    Access 2003 Reinstalls Every Time

    Thanks for the words of advice guys - I didn't even see an Access forum, but now that I know it's out there I'll make it a point of cross posting there. Willif, I totally agree that your solution would be worth a try in an extreme circumstance, and if I can't find a better option that's what...

    Recommend a printer?

    I work in a small office, and we're looking at the possibility of printing our own marketing material in house (direct mailers, brochures, etc). I'm doing some shopping on printers, but I was wondering if anyone could recommend a decent printer that will give me a full bleed on 11" x 17" stock...

    Upgrade from Office XP to 2003; XP won't uninstall

    I got it. The old IT guy had deployed Office XP on the server, which was sending Office XP "install-on-demand" shortcuts to our workstations every time we logged on to the network. We've called in a professional to dismantle the installer. Thought I'd keep you guys posted in case this happens...

    Office XP Reinstalls after Reboot

    About a year ago, we had a 19 year old MCSE working for us, and he installed Office XP on seven workstations across the company. Recently we discovered that our Office XP installs were pirated, and we bought some Office 2003 licenses to correct the problem. However, no matter what I try, Office...

    Upgrade from Office XP to 2003; XP won't uninstall

    I think you're right, and I think it's going to come down to reinstalling and reconfiguring Windows on all the workstations, as well as all the software we've previously installed, and then installing Windows. I've tried the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility to no avail now too. I just don't...

    Upgrade from Office XP to 2003; XP won't uninstall

    Hello! I work in an office with 8 workstations; we recently found out that an old employee installed pirated copies of Office XP Professional w/Frontpage on our workstations some time back; when we realized the problem, we bought new copies of Office Professional Edition 2003 to remedy the...

    Outlook 2000 Outgoing Mail Problem

    No, McAfee all the way. The emails themselves aren't getting blocked, either. The receiver gets them just fine. I just get a copy of it in my inbox too.

    Outlook 2000 Outgoing Mail Problem

    I have been running Outlook 2000 since January with no problems. Within the last week, however, any time I try to reply to or forward an email, a copy is saved to my inbox. The problem doesn't happen when I create a new message (which saves to my Sent Items folder), and the end user IS still...

    The Invincible Phantom Viewport

    Absolutely nothing - it acts like it doesn't exist when it is unselected, and acts just like any other viewport when selected.

    The Invincible Phantom Viewport

    Hi - I'm running a copy of AutoCAD 2000LT at work, and I have a problem: in all my drawings there is a "phantom" viewport floating around in my layouts - it is a single viewport that I did NOT create... the screen does not display the VP's frame unless you double click the inside of it, and it...
