Can't I tell it not to be helpful when I am sure I don't need it? ------------------------------ An old man [tiger] who lives in the UK

Television subtitles often make worse errors. Like saying "the Arab Spring has become an Arab Bottom", when the man said "Autumn". Or "foot-soldiers" becoming foot shoulders. I have a collection of them on Flickr. There are also hymns, . "Though is not an error, "without" has an...

I like using jpg, which is universal. I was hoping to be told how to get the software to do what I want, not be told that my wishes were foolish. ------------------------------ An old man [tiger] who lives in the UK

I like to save files in a different name and in a different file. And as JPGs. But each time, it gives me a box with "JPEG Options". The automatic selections are fine. But I have to click OK each time. It's the sort of thing you'd expect to default. I'm new to Photoshop, probably missing...

On Windows XP and earlier systems, I could get programs to start whenever I started the machine, by putting them into a 'startup' menu within the start menu. For Windows 7, this does not exist, or at least I cannot find it. I also cannot find any replacement function: Windows Help on Startup...

I'm linked by cable, via a USB. No LAN. ------------------------------ An old man [tiger] who lives in the UK

I can't see anywhere to look up the software version. The synchronisation is IPAQ2, does that help? ------------------------------ An old man [tiger] who lives in the UK

I'm moving from AOL, which had alwasy handled my mail. But when I try to get my old copy of Office to take over, it seems only to recognise phone lines and 'Local Area Networks'. Is that a limit of the software? Something I can't get round without an expensive upgrade...

Thanks, xwb, that worked. Have a star. I've not ventured into VBA, I've already got what I needed. ------------------------------ An old man [tiger] who lives in the UK

I'd been synchronising for years, no problem. But my new machine with Windows 7 says there is no software to link. Is this true? If so, how can I fix it? If I have to get a more modern iPAQ, how modern? ------------------------------ An old man [tiger] who lives in the UK
