The new operating system looks very very cool. You have to check it out. Based on the previews I saw for Leopard, the system looks totally revolutionary. If it works well, Leopard will be to operating systems what Star Wars was to Sci-Fi Movies.

How do feel and react when you just bought a software with 'hard earned' money, and found out that your friend has been a long user of a pirated one and is proud of it.

I have the following directories that are located on my C: drive

Funk
Pop
Soundtracks
Unknown Artist
Reggae_Tracks

While I am at the C: promp in the windows\system32\command.com window, I tried the following.

cd Funk
-- this takes me to C:\Funk> no problems

cd Pop
-- this takes me to C:\Pop> no problems

cd Soundtracks
-- I get the following error message:
Invalid directory

I know the directory exists because when I did dir c: I saw the folder there.

What is the proper dos format while using "cd" in order to handle
a) long file names
b) specail characters.
c) spaces

thank for helping

I've worked on many friends computers and I'm always looking for a better or easier way to do things. The same diversity that makes computers so great can make it very difficult to sort through all the programs in existence to find one that suits your needs. There is more ways to do the same thing, after all.

I ask that you list your top 5 favorite utility programs or CD boot diagnostics sets. Remember that programs and hardware are virtually the same in a sense so I guess you can include utility hardware also. Please give a brief explanation why you picked your selection. This will help me understand and for others who happen to drop in on this one as well.

i have excel 2007 home and student version and i am on windows vista. if i were to record a macro into the personal workbook so that i could bring it up in any excel workbook, what are the exact steps. the macro would be the name "my first macro" and i would like it to be called by pressing keys such as CNTL M, or something of your choice, just to get me starteed doing macros. If you would like to guide me in utilizing a button on my toolbar to call up a macro, that would even be better. but i would also require step by step on that. i once did a macro. i have the info on how to do it, but i've become dumbified or something in the macro process, it just hasn't been happening for me, and i don't know why, please help! note, when i tried a macro last night, the i went to run it, i got an error message stating that i must use "unhide". so i believe i am going in circles or something. ,

I am resorting to you guys cause I know that you are geniouses. (geniousi??) LOL

I purchased an HP Pavillion notebook with Vista installed. I am using it for my work so I am allowed to install Microsoft Office 2007 pro. They gave me the lisencing info and I logged onto the site and did the download.
After the download was complete, I thought it would automatically run, but it showed in a long white box, with three tabs underneath. the closest I 've ever seen this box look like is a Zip file box, but with no colour. I've never seen anything like it.
I pressed the one button that said something like "run this program" (sorry can't remember) and then it asked with which program I would like to open it. I chose notepad thinking that it would provide the instructions for extracting the .exe.
It didn't
Instead, it locked up everything - I had to shut down and restart and now EVERYTHING that is related to Windows programs is opening in notepad.... what did I do and how can I fix it?

I somehow turned off my bulleted outline option. It is supposed to let me press return and tab and give me a new style of bullet for a new point underneath another point. I somehow turned it off earlier and can't figure out how to turn it back on...PLEASE HELP, thank you!
