    - Disable auto updates for Office 2003 I have a new PC that I'm installing WinXP and Office 2003. I want the automatic updates for WinXP, but not for Office 2003. Is there anyway I can disable the automatic updates just for Office 2003? Thanks. Tag: Upgrading Tag: 300607

    - Setting up some kind of shared diary/calendar Hello! I have been asked to set up a shared diary for everyone at work, in which to place meetings so as to coordinate attendances from outside the company, so that the same person isn't needing to come in on two separate occasions. What is the most efficient way of doing this? Is there a better way than an Excel spreadsheet? Or does Microsoft outlook have the capacity to share a calendar to multiple users (without putting all the meetings in everyone's calendars, as most of them are irrelevant to others) Thanks!

    - How do I update my free website? Not sure if I'm in the right area so please provide a link if I'm off base. I just discovered that I partially completed my free website so I did a pretty good job of updating it and want it to go live. But when I type the info in that got me to the unfinished live site, the old info is still there. The site appears updated on the "work page" when I ask to view it but it doesn't appear to be going out to the web. Is there a waiting period before it actually updates? Please help because I'm pretty happy with what I've got done and want to get it out there a.s.a.p. Thanks ~Ken Tag: Upgrading Tag: 300570

    - Outlook 2003 new messages always open in max size window I'm running Office 2003 Professional, Small Business Edition 2006. In the Outlook 2003 version within this suite, whenever I click "new" message, the blank message opens full-screen. When I click the button for "normal size" window, and manually resize the window to a smaller size, it will remember the size for the rest of the session. However, when I close Outlook 2003 and go back in, if I open a "new" message, or on in my inbox, they are opened in full screen mode again. This is extremely irritating. Is there a fix for this, or is this just more lousy Microsoft software that will never work correctly? Tag: Upgrading Tag: 300567

    - upgrading one component of Office suite I have a client who, for cost purposes, would like to upgrade only Word to 2007 yet keep both 2000 and 2003 versions of the other apps (Excel, Powerpoint, etc) that are installed on separate PC's. Two questions: 1. Can I upgrade only Word to 2007 in both Office 2000 & Office 2003 installations. 2. What forseeable issues am I looking at with this setup besides the maintenance nightmare of updates and patches? Tag: Upgrading Tag: 300562

    - Warning about purchasing Office from Microsoft site I just completed a purchase from the microsoft website and was sent to another company. The other company is Digital River. Currently I would warn against doing any business with them and until microsoft changes their vendor about doing business with them. The reason why? I bought the product (Microsoft Office) online to save time as it should be easier to just download it and get the CD in the mail at a later date. I was not sent an e-mail confirmation of the purchase, or where to go to download my paid for copy, or an activation code. After the 3x forwarding of my call to microsoft (only about 25 mins so really not bad) I ended up speaking with Digital River whose only solution was to refund my credit card charge only after they recieved the money in their account or for me to wait and maybe eventually it will work itself out. So basically shop at your own risk. i would STRONGLY recommend if you have to shop online go to a actual retailer like amazon or best buy etc... as this company really doesn't care about you as a customer.

    - Uninstall 60 day Trial Version of 2007 from start-up & PC Hi, My daughter purchased a lap-top with the 60 day Trail Activation of Office Suites I have purchased the cd from retail and installed it on her PC and activated it by telephone. As the laptop is new it's not all set up yet. I unhooked my desk-top & plugged the laptop in to check if everything set up ok. But the trial version Key Activation keeps popping up wanting to activate the Trial Version. I assumed that my installation of the retail version would just overide and remove. When I check uninstall or change programs... I see my installed version Office Home & Student as loaded today. But I also see Activation for MS Trial as well as Microsoft suites. I don't want to go and uninstall the MS Suites if somehow what I loaded to day merged with that one. Is that possible? What should I do? thanks for any suggestions Tag: Upgrading Tag: 300547

    - selecting paste special on right click within the office suite, right clicking to access the past special command should then drop down automatically to the paste special options of HTML/UNICODE TEXT/TEXT. Currently we are forced to click, then find the next box/scroll to select. We then must double click or snap to close the second call out box. Unnecessary steps. If we hover over paste special it can be assumed we will select one of those three choices withing the next drop down. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
