DL owners can't modify lists 04-09-10
So we've just completed a review of all our distribution lists - many had no owners, were not used anymore, etc. We cleaned up a lot of stuff and assigned an owner to each list, then notified the new owners that they are in fact now owners. Several of them are running into problems whereby they cannot modify the group. They get an error message saying You do not have sufficient permissions to update the list. Can someone give me some ideas on where to start troubleshooting this? Not all owners have this problem - just a handful of them. Thanks! Just found the solution -...

DMM Duplicate List Values
well, this is my first real cut at trying to use the 4.0 DMM, and I have to say it sucks. I want to go back to the 3.0 version. (at least I could manipulate the data in the DM tables if I needed to). And I can't get it to install on the SQL Server box either. anywho, all I want to do is assign different input values to a one picklist value - if its ON, on, Ont, Ontario,,,,, I want the picklist value to be 'Ontario' - just a little light data cleansing. I can't do it in the Mapping tool in CRM - I can do it using the 'sample' mapping editor, but then the DMM thr...

Inventory Price List Integration in GP10
I created an integration to update some inventory items. I needed to add a new price level but this part of the integration did not update.

Discrepancy encountered when attempted to convert a MS Excel list to MS Access

Custom Lists in Excel
I know the default custom lists in Excel are an effort to make life simpler, but I want to delete them because they are causing other list sorting incorrect. For example, I study car sales, and we have 3 digit names for car makes. Saturn is one of those makes. Your custom list interprets 'SAT' as Saturday and places it on the top of the list. This is a nuisance. Please allow us to override those default lists. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Question about concatenate
Hello, I have a table that has three fields across (ID#, Q01, Notes). Under the ID# column I have several customer IDs: 1, 2, 3, etc... And under the Q01 column is the response to a customer question in which they could choose multiple answers: A, B, C, D, etc... The problem arises in that if a customer has multiple answers, they are on a separate line. For example, if ID# 1 answered A, B, and C the first three rows would be: 1 A 1 B 1 C I would like to make one row per customer ID#. That way I have one row per ID#, for example: 1 A,B,C I believe I need to use an I...

db size question
I performed an offline defrag. the total size before defrag was 74G. - after defrag 47G. Although it is substantial the problem is that when I add up my user's email size it come out to around 20G - while the priv.edb is showing 37G. I have the deletion and mailbox setting set to zero so I'm wondering how or why the db is not a lower size. Any help would be appreciated.
