i think you should check if you have installed all the necessary drivers for your laptop... including your video card...

Adobe Acrobat 8.1.2 has unsizeable dialog boxes taller than my screen. How to make them fit?

Two such dialog boxes are:

1) File %26gt; Create PDF %26gt; From Scanner... %26gt;

';Acrobat Scan';

When this window appears I can just see the top edge of buttons at the bottom of this window. If I drag the blue title-bar up as far as possible I can see parts of the names on the buttons. If I move task-Bar to the side of the screen I can then click on the bottom row of buttons, one of which is ';Scan';.



2) Document %26gt; Header %26amp; Footer %26gt; Update... %26gt;

';Update Header %26amp; Footer';

No buttons are visible at the bottom of this window. If I drag the title-bar up as far as possible I can almost see at the bottom of the screen faint hints of horizontal lines which might be the tops of buttons, but I cannot see their names and clicking over them does not close the window. Pressing %26lt;esc%26gt; acts as a Cancel and closes the window, but I have not found a keyboard shortcut to click Update or Done. If I repeatedly click the %26lt;tab%26gt; key I can see the focus move to the last visible button, then it goes below the bottom edge of the screen. Once I pressed Enter with the focus below the screen, and the window closed, accepting my Header info. I have not managed to get this to work again to make a further change to the Header.

Sometimes if you hold down Control and use the scrolling tab on your mouse, the font will get smaller/bigger. Try rolling the scroller away from you and it should decrease the size of the font only on the computer screen so that it may fit all the text.

Your assistance please?

In detail...

I have one batch file. This batch file is designed to print the file name in a folder. The command I have used is dir d:\FolderNameWhereFilesAreLocatedToPrint %26gt; d:\foldernameWhretheTxtFileBeCreated\txt鈥?/b . And then I import these data into an excel file and I saved this file on my computer, and it was working well. But when I try to open this excel file from other computer on the same network I was able to open the file but the data can't be refreshed. Whenever I open the file a dialog box is opened saying that 鈥淓xcel can't find the text file to refresh this external data range. Then I try to change the command in batchfile in to \\mycomputername\d:\FolderNameWhereFiles鈥?%26gt; d:\foldernameWhretheTxtFileBeCreated\txt鈥?/b. but it is not worked out. Can anybody help me out in this issue. I hope you all understand my problem. This excel file is to be shared to all on my network as all have to check the file.

in this excel file i have created one macro to run the batch file. This also working in my system

While when i try to open it from other computer it is showing a dialog box Error 5. What is it and how can i solve this issue.

Macro command is

Sub vchr_gvn()

'

' vchr_gvn Macro

' To run VchrGvn Batch file

'

' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+r

'

Call Shell(';\\sa\batchfiles\shtg givn.bat';, vbNormalFocus)

End Sub

FYI.

I have shared this file, shared the folder and given permission.

Otherwise can you tell me other alternative to do all this things?

What I need is, I want to know the file names which contain in a folder and I want this names in a excel file and when I click on this file name in excel I need this file be opened. by using macro or any way. Remember I want to share this file with others on the same network.Your assistance please?
A few things to check

1. the path you provide is incorrect from network pov, it shouldn't has the d:\ in the middle, cause if that drive is shared, it should become something like a folder, may be is just ';d';

2. this line

Call Shell(';\\sa\batchfiles\shtg givn.bat';, vbNormalFocus)

may be needed to change to

Call Shell(';\\sa\batchfiles\shtg\ givn.bat';, vbNormalFocus) (note:added 1 space)

3. may be use excel to call the text file instead of using bat, Dos also has problem in networking especially with xp

Hope this helps.

Problem with my taskbar on Windows Vista PLEASE HELP!?

I have Windows Vista Home Premium on my laptop and recently a problem has developed on the taskbar.

The middle section (between the quick launch icons and Windows start menu %26amp; the icon tray on the right) has stopped displaying the current windows that i have open.

(for example, when i am running Firefox and Windows Live Messenger, it does not display the current windows like it should do on the taskbar).

The quickstart icons, tray icons and the menu button still all function correctly.

I have tried several different things to sort this problem out:

I have checked all of the settings (which i didn't change in the first place) to see whether anything is different and it isn't

I have restarted my laptop several times

I have tried to do system restore

I have restarted the 'explorer.exe' on the Windows Task Manager

I have ran the msconfig to check for any problems

I have change the style, colour and transparancy of my taskbar

I have tried minimising the taskbar and restarting it and still i do not know how to fix it.

The only way i can switch through programs is by using the alt %26amp; tab keyboard shortcut.

I would really like to solve this problem and so i would be very greatful for any suggestions.

Thanks :]Problem with my taskbar on Windows Vista PLEASE HELP!?

Type into google taskbar repair tool download that but you to register it before you can use it i got mine cracked it fixed my taskbar no problems there. In fact ill give you the website to save you hassle hehe.

Need help with my Macintosh?

Is there a shortcut key that will change the input language between japanese and english keyboard input setting.



I know how to change manually but, it get's really annoying when you have to stop what your typing go and change it just to put english in and then go back to writing japanese.

my friend tells me that on japanese computers, they press the tab key or something and it automatically changes it instantly, if anyone can tell me how to do this on a mac i'd appreciate it.

Computer problem. Screen resolution changes when I try to move down.?

My laptop is dying :( it was working fairly okay, a few BSoD's, but it recovered. But for the last two days it's been doing this weird thing.



It is working fine and then it suddenly changes without me doing anything. When I try to move the cursor down (for example, to move down on a webpage) instead of moving down, the screen resolution changes. Everything gets smaller or bigger if I move it up. Also, when I type the letter w in any window, it closes itself. And when I press the letter p it tries to print. And any other keyboard shortcuts that I haven't found out yet.



And now, when I open a new webpage, it comes up big, without the menus or toolbars at the top like it used to.



Anybody know why it is doing this or how to cure it?



ThanksComputer problem. Screen resolution changes when I try to move down.?
That is odd but I would suggest that some keys are stuck.

If you use a scroll mouse (with a wheel) and scroll up and down while holding down the CAPS key, it changes the resolution of the screen (not many people know that!).



Many keys also have meanings when you press the CTRL or ALT keys at the same time. That would explain the printing, for instance.



If it's not the keyboard keys themselves, it may be the keyboard connector inside, or even the keyboard driver. Whatever - it definitely has to do with the laptop thinking that certain keys are being pressed.

Macros in Microsoft Word?
