Problem with Outlook 2003/Cached mode/Viruses
Every once in a while a user will get an e-mail into their mailbox on Exchange that's infected with a virus. From that point on Outlook refuses to download any new mail (including the virus-infected e-mail.) Sometimes we can delete the e-mail using OWA, sometimes not. If we take Outlook out of cached mode, all of the e-mail appears, and after deleting the infected mail and restarting Outlook back in cached mode, all mail synchs correctly. They're running Exchange 2000, using Symantec Corporate AV (on the workstations, server, and the Exchange plug-in.) Any ideas? TIA Looks l...

Exchange 2003 /Exchweb/Cabs folder
I'm having trouble with OWA in Exchange 2003 Standard (running on Windows 2003 Standard). When trying to access OWA internally, I get placeholders instead of images and the word "Loading...". This seems to be pretty well addressed in KB280823. The problem I'm seeing is that when I remove the virtual folder for Exchweb and recreate it, I do not get a Cabs folder. The rest of the folders are there, but not the Cabs. This folder does not exist in \Program Files\Exchsrvr\Exchweb, either. Where does this folder come from? How can I get it in place? Is it even part o...

Outlook 2003 dials wrong connection
I am helping a friend. She uses Outlook 2003 on XP SP2. Up to yesterday she had one ISP with an email account at that ISP. The ISP name is Freeserve. She wanted another email address for work and decided to sign up with another ISP, Tiscali, to get a new email. She uses pay as you go dialup with both Freeserve and Tiscali. The new Tiscali connection is the default connection for IE and shows as the default connection in Connect To|Show All Connections. Indeed if not connected, going to IE and requesting an online page brings the dial-up connection dialog for Tiscali. With Outlook 2003 h...

Access 2003, sharing application over a Novell Network
I recently built a simple 12,000 record database (a little over 7 MB) for my assoicates all over the country via our VPN . It was created in Access 2003, converted to Access 2000, and runs off a shared drive on a Novell server in Washintgton DC. The response times have been incredibly slow, upwards of a minute to query an initial record tied to the primary key. (although it responds instantly when running off a single stand alone PC) Does anyone have any tips about how I can make it run quicker or respond faster over a Novell network via VPN? It's pretty much dead in the water no...

Vista x86 Upgrade to Win7 x64
I have purchased an Acer Aspire 6930G laptop that came with Vista x86 (32 bit) installed but with a free 'upgrade' to Windows 7 x86. I have a 'desktop' and an update copy of Windows 7 (legit) that came with both 32 and 64 bit disks. I have installed the 64 bit version onto the desktop. I want to install the 64 bit version of Win7 onto my laptop but Microsoft insist they will only provide the 32 bit version as I am 'updating' from a 32 bit version. (seems that they are being simply bloody minded). My question is can I successfully install the 64 bit ve...

Editing Outlook 2003 Rules

Upgrading the CPU?
I was thinking about possibly upgrading my current 1.6 GHz CPU on my Dell Desktop with a faster 2.2 GHz CPU (which is compatible and available), but I had a couple of general questions: Would upgrading the CPU would require some, or perhaps most, apps to need to be reactivated again, due to tripping some copy protection features of the apps? IOW, will apps typically look at that alone and that's enough, or does it take 2 or more large changes to the system to normally trigger it? Also, when making image backups on my system to my second internal SATA2 drive, I am now get...

How to change default font in Outlook 2003
Can someone tell me how to change tthe default font in Outlook 2003 when composing a new email. It always comes up as Times New Roman. I remember somewhere that I specified that Outlook should use Word as the text editor and that seems to be the case. I have Arial as my default font in Word but this seems to make no difference when using Outlook.

MS Office for Mac 2008: Toolbars Disappear
Toolbars do not appear even though they are checked as being active in the "View" drop-down menu. This occurs every time a Word or Excel document is opened, whether a new blank document or an existing one. Unchecking the "Standard" or "Format" toolbar and then rechecking them make the toolbar appear but there are no icons visible. Clicking anywhere on the document then makes the icons appear. Using time-machine, reinstalled MS Office to a version two months prior to when this started. No change. Deleted and reinstalled from original CD and then insta...

Access 2007 does not duplicate Access 2003 action
I have a report designed in Access 2003. It forces a new page every time Group(0)'s value changes. That's what I want. When I move this file from my XP desktop to my Vista desktop (do not convert) and run it in Access 2007, the Group(0) does not forced a new page when its value changes. How do I correct this? Ed Suggestions: 1. If you have not yet done so, add your database's folder as a trusted location under: Office Button | Access Options | Trust Center | Trust Center Settings 2. What view are you using for your report? Access 2007 has a new Report view and a Lay...

Excel Re-calculation 2000 compared to 2003
My company has recently deployed MS Office 2003. The previously deployed version was Office 2000. One of our users has an 11MB financial workbook that contains lots of formula. Mostly of IF, SUMIF and SUM calculations. There are plenty of links between the 25 worksheets within the one workbook but no links to other workbooks. Entering data into the workbook using Excel 2000 is nearly instantaneous. However entering data into Excel 2003 takes about 15 seconds each time I press enter (or direction key) as the workbook recalculates each time. The settings for calculation are identical with cal...

Upgrading to Money 2005 Beware!
I am a 3 year user of Money 2003 and Money2004 Small Business. Although I have had minor problems, these products have been very stable and have greatly enhanced my financial control. So I was very surprised to find that MIcrosoft put out Money 2005 in its current state. I was receiving sales hints every time I ran 2004 and so I upgraded yesterday. What a mistake! The product has changed so much that nothing went smoothly and all of my records , accounts and history were messed up. Their program just quit several times on me without aborting messages - it just disappeared and I had to l...

Autocomplete in Outlook 2003
We have just upgraded from Office 2000 to office 2003. Previously Outlook would auto complete the email addresses. Despite having all the correct boxes ticked as per the Outlook 2003 help pages, previously entered email addresses still will not auto complete meaning we have to go to the address book to get them every time. This is an irritation to us. Is there a problem with this when upgrading Office rather than doing a fresh install? Is there a fix (however all updates have been downloaded from the Office update site. Any help would be appreciated. Not quite. Outlook 2000 had no au...

If you read posts here you will find lots of problems with download purchase. The ratio to problems reported to the CD purcha...

News in Outlook 2003
