... I have had a wireless home network for about 2 years. It was very simple to set up. First, a wireless router (also known as an "access point"). The one...
One of my colleagues has, she thinks, just hit something on her keyboard which has caused the windows and everything on her screen to be rotated by 90° (I...
... Perhaps she pressed the Sleep button, but instead of going into sleep mode, the computer thought she wanted to continue working in bed? Sorry, couldn't...
Dear Alison, This looks like a graphics card "feature". You should look in the card driver/software settings. If she got it like this so easily, she can ...
Well, I think Marco and Ben must have been right. She's managed to get it all right again, but it did seem to be something to do with some graphics element...
Hello friends I have a directory with thousands of subfolders, some of which (I assume) have identical names. How can I find all duplicate folders in this...
Naty It isn't possible to have identical folder names on the same level - So you can't have "C:\Work" duplicated. You can, however, have "C:\Work\Work" and...
PS Make sure you check the option 'Search subfolders' in the Advanced section of the search window. Also, I don't think it's possible to search only for...
Does anyone know how to do the following in Acrobat 5: - set the text window to always open in, say, Fit Width (mine seems to open 51 % all the time, in spite...
Naty, I can't think of a straight, simple way of doing that. The easiest I thought about is what Gary suggested, but I guess it is not very practical if you ...
Hi, ... It's easy, as well, in fact, although rather klunky. Just search for *\\ and replace with nothing, with Wildcards checked. You have to do it as many...
As usual, I hit the Send button too soon ;-( I just thought, why would you want to remove the paths? That would surely defeat the object of (presumably)...
Thanks, Dominiueq, it worked (after I had removed the Document Security, necessary because the Open option in Document Proteries was dimmed). However, if I...
Often, when I change, for instance, the height of a row in a Word table by dragging the border up or down, the cursor (and view) moves a few pages up in the...
Actually it IS possible to look only for folders in the Windows search feature... At least in Win2k: Select Search, don't type anything in the search field (or...
There appears to be something wrong with the fan on my old Win98 laptop. Once the fan comes on after a while, it appears to continue running indefinitely until...
Clicking on the paragraph icon is supposed to show or hide text that is formatted as hidden, and I'm sure that's what used to happen, but it doesn't any more. ...
Herbert I think it just turns on or off the features you select in Tools/Options/Formatting marks, which include hidden text, paragraph marks, tabs, spaces,...
Hello Herbert, -> -----Original Message----- -> From: Herbert Eppel [mailto:Herb@...] [...] -> What I mean is that clicking on the paragraph icon now...
In some Adobe Acrobat files, when you have the Hand Tool selected and you click on the page, it magnifies (e.g. from 100 % to 150 %). I have looked, but not...
... I just noticed that the above happens when you are in Find mode. The hand symbol changes to a hand with a down arrow, and when you click on the text the...
I have just come across this answer to the m3 dilemma that I myself posted a while back. The answer is pretty simple - a two-part search and replace. Hope it's...
Thanks, Tim. I'd worked out something pretty similar myself (involving putting the figures in between <>), but it's good to have it all down in "writing"....

Hi Herbert, ... well, as always, "it depends" (TM). If your laptop manufacturer was benevolent enough to build in a good graphics card into your laptop (think...
