Well - it seems that Windows has some features I haven't noticed until now - I can't believe I just learned this - noticed in Win 7, but does same thing in a Win 2K vm. In a command window, dir *.doc will also return .docx files. hm, that's almost cool. And, in VBA, the behaviour holds -...

Greetings... I see lots of discussion of backup and DR, doing mirroring to alternate sites and backing up to cloud rather than tape. Yet, I see that tape vendors are still out there, offering multi-Terabyte tape cartridges. What do you think? Anyone staying with tape, upgrading or even moving...

I posted a thread in another forum - it might have belonged here instead? SDLC for infrastructure comments?

When a business issues a cell phone, how is support usually handled? - say it loses texts, or doesn't notify the user of voicemails, or - whatever. Is it usually handled by IT first, or does the user call the carrier's support, or what? What if there's a management app on it? if a device...

I posted in the mobile devices forum also - I don't know if this is the right way to reference a thread? re http://tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1738150 IT security as pertains to smartphones and tablets - any insights would be welcome! Thanks Jay

I'm working on IT security policies for mobile devices - user-owned and business-owned. Would you use the same management software for both? Would you permit the same levels of access for both? Do you permit personal data on business-owned devices? Thanks for any insights or opinions. Regards Jay

I'm feeling a bit dense, here. I've inherited some drawings where the shapes have gradient fills and possibly other fancy stuff. I want to simplify them for better performance (on my slow computer) and better reliability when embedding in Word and printing. (Generally output by saving as EMF...

I'm reviewing types of smart devices suitable for corporate use. I'd appreciate comments on classes of devices, such as Blackberry vs Windows Mobile vs WebOS vs Android vs iPhone... I see there were security issues with WebOs a while back - is it pretty secure now? Thanks Jay

In Writer, it is easy to set up a Table Of Contents such that a generated PDF has links from the TOC entries to the correct locations in the document. Can the same be done with Tables of figures or other generated lists? Thanks Jay

I also posted this question in the Acrobat forum, but perhaps there's more action here? For some arbitrary number of docs in one or more directories, I would like to pull text from the first page of each doc, pull some of the text out of it, and use it to assign "title" and related OLE...

For some arbitrary number of docs in one or more directories, I would like to pull text from the first page of each doc, pull some of the text out of it, and use it to assign "title" and related OLE properties to each doc. I have the MS sample and a few other things, which has got me started. I...

Somewhere I read about a way to pull (and edit?) the summary info from a Word (office?) doc without actually opening it. I can't find it- anyone have a link or info? I want to search a number of directories with many files, and build a database with info from the summaries. thanks Jay
