VB Scripts
Wed, 22 Aug 2007 22:08:02 +0000
My VB Scripts used to run simply by invoking the script filename.
They no longer do, instead they open the script file in Notepad.
To run the scripts I have to invoke them as a parameter to a
'cscript' command.
How do I get back to the previous situation?

Help with open office
Tue, 21 Aug 2007 16:35:11 GMT
I've just downloaded Open Office and when I open 'Writer', it always seems
to open in the Print layout view. I've tried to turn it off but on reopening
it, the same view reappears.
Is this just an unchangeable default, or am I a dum dum?
Cheers for any help Dan Molloy

Suggestion for KVM switch?
Mon, 20 Aug 2007 13:24:34 GMT
I currently have two boxes connected using a Dynamode KVM switch. This
normally works well for me, but ATM I am testing a lot of Linux
distributions on one of the machines. The monitor type is not being picked

the exe files to upgrade this to IE/OE6? Alternatively, will IE 7 run on Me
with 128MB RAM?
