I'm making directions for someone and I want to be able to say click on the tree icon but instead of saying tree icon I'd like to be able to put the graphic of that icon in my file so when they read my directions they will have a pict of the icon to be looking for. How do I do that?

How (what command) does a user tell a PC to Shut Down at a specified time -say 2hrs fromtime of usage? I tried the following on my WinXP and someone's Win2000Pro and witnessed no shut down:

At hte command prompt:

at 12:34pm -F -S

Can anyone tell me if there is anything wrong with this command...is it a dud? Thanx everyone.

(bear with me there is a question in here)
After many years as a custom PC builder and repair I decided to try my hand at live tech support... Big mistake!!... Almost all of the calls are entirely nonsense, Lack of common sense and incompetence.

My point I believe there should be a exam administered before buying a PC. A basic computer knowledge permit showing that you are capable of operating a PC. Believe me you say "click the start button" and 6 out of 10 times you have to say "that little button that says start in the lower left hand of your screen" AND THEY STILL DONT KNOW..... These are the same people that think a computer from 1996 running a 233mhz processor with 32 megs of ram and running windows 95 is slow because of the Internet connection.

Basically the exam would consist of....

Using the user interface

Use of virus scan and ad ware removal programs and why they are important

How the computer works

Why updating is important

How the Internet works

basic use of the Internet

What each component is and how they work

Why processor speed effects performance

Why ram effects performance

Where THE GOD DAMNED START BUTTON IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I figure it could be a state run program that the cost of the exam would go DIRECTLY to computer education for the school system and a program to help the less fortunate students that wouldn't normally have access to a computer outside of school. I also have a idea for a school run isp for education purposes for said students that normally wouldn't normally have access.

Is this a plausible idea

I have Windows XP and Office XP. For typing some of the characters, I have to press Alt and then put a code number while working in a MS Word file. I understand that if can make shortcut keys. For example, we press F1, we can get the character which we usually get by pressing Alt and a certain code.

I'd be thankful if you could explain the step by step procedure for doing so. I think we have to go to Insert and then to Symbol. I just could not get success. Please sugget keeping in view that I have Office XP. Thank you

I received an email with the following content and want to obtain validity .........or is it just a hoax? The e-mail said this had been on the Good Morning America Show but I can't find any archives on Bill Gates nor Microsoft paying for sending emails and how are they tracked anyway?

"Microsoft and AOL are now the largest Internet companies and in an effort to make sure that Internet Explorer remains the most widely used program, Microsoft and AOL are running an e-mail beta test. When you forward this e-mail to friends, Microsoft can and will track it (If you are a Microsoft Windows user) For a two weeks time period. For every person that you forward this e-mail to, Microsoft will pay you $245.00 For every person that you sent it to that forwards it on, Microsoft will pay you $243.00 and for every third person that receives it, You will be paid $241.00. Within two weeks, Microsoft will contact you for your address and then send you a check."
