Rebuilding Windows 2003 server with Exchange 2003
I've had a number of problems with this particular server blue screening while attempting to copy and paste Exchange files, restoring the Exchange files, and after working with technicians on both the hardware and software sides, I've decided to just rebuild the server. This is my plan and I'm looking for advice to make sure I'm taking the right steps. The server is currently the master domain controller, running the global catalog, dns and dhcp. I have another domain controller in the network that I will promote and give global catalog permissions to. I will then ...

Does every windows which shows itself while working on any Windows O.S ( lets say Windows 2k) a registered one?
Hello All, I am learning windows programming and using spy++ to view the class names and other properties of the windows for better understanding. It works fine for most of the windows that show themselves.But when windows generated by java program appear on the surface,it will only recognise the parent window with some classname like java.awt. but won't recognize the child windows like buttons,dropdowns inside the main java window. Earlier I was thinking that every window which we see in WindowsO.S shoule register itself with the O.S?But here the child windows of java haven't register...

Windows Mail-Getting REALLY Frustrating!
I'm starting to get really irritated now. A couple of weeks ago I wrote on this board that I had somehow lost my self created folders in Windows Mail for archiving my old e-mails. Well thanks to some 'posters' here, I managed to find them and have nearly gotten back all my old e-mails. Now for some reason everytime I open up and use Windows Mail, it completely hogs my CPU and makes using it pretty much impossible. I can hear the PC revving up like a jet engine after I open up the application and forget about trying to write anything. Press a letter and about two ...

RMS eCommerce Shopping Cart
Ok, I've been doing some research and the primary players with proven software that works are actually Kosmos Central and Nitrosell. Store Front from what I'm hearing and talking to past storefront users is pure junk so, it's basically between Kosmos and Nitrosell. Does anyone have a back to back comparison of both providers? 1) Kosmos Non Hosted. You own the source code to the shopping cart and can modify the functionality and design 100%. 2) Nitrosell Hosted. No chance of breaking the code, since you can't modify it at all. ------------------------------------------- B...

PnPCapabilities, powermanagement and Windows 7
Don't know if this would be better off in a Windows 7 board or not, but here goes. We're rolling out Windows 7 with SCCM and want to ensure that no matter what, the nic adapter settings are the way we want them. So I'm using one of the standard vbscripts found via goggle to enumerate through nics and set the registry value for PnPCapabilities. http://www.jasemccarty.com/blog/?p=89 is one of the many sites with the same script; I don't know who originally wrote it.

UDP socket works fine on NT, doesn't work on Windows 2000 outside VS 6.0 IDE
We have an old client-server MFC application that uses UDP socket connection between client and server. In a nutshell, the client opens a connection, and the server starts sending small heartbeats every second. Everything works fine on Win95/98/NT4.0 SP6 and on Windows 2000 SP3 inside VS 6.0 IDE in the debug mode. On Windows 2000 either inside IDE (release mode) or outside VS 6.0 IDE (both debug and release build), client only receives a few first heartbeats, nothing thereafter. And the socket remains open. Is anyone familiar with this behaviour? Any suggestions? Any help will be greatly app...

Client IE errors when closing a window in CRM 4:U4.
Hello everyone, I've been searching for an answer on this and haven't yet run across anything. On SOME of my CRM client's machines, they get an error message stating that "Microsoft Dynamics has encountered an error." This occurs for a few of the users when they 'x' out of a window. If they send the error or hit cancel, the normal window comes up warning them that their email or letter, or whatever, will not be saved, hit ok to continue, cancel to go back. It's nothing serious, but the error doesn't come up for all users...just a few. Everything had b...

Opening multiple windows of same workbook with macro

This works great if and only if the name of my workbook is Cutsheettemplate3.0.xls which will not always be the case. How can I revise the code to make it dynamic with what ever I name the file.
