I'd love to use it to create lists/reports because it has a very comprehensive filter but the fact that it does 1 record per page (and is thus unprintable) is definitely a dealbreaker.

    - cartoon skin Note to Microsoft developers: Most of us are older than 8 years of age and therefore do not need our software to look like a cartoon. Until now, this has been a relatively minor problem because the "Classic" look was still available, but Office 2007 provides no such option. With Office 2007 we are allowed three color themes for our cartoon-y display, but no option to disable it. Please, please, please give us the option for a clean, compact, simple, "Classic" look. The most important adjective there is COMPACT.

    - office works okay as admin but re-loads each time w/user profiles Each time I try to open an Office (2003 or XP) program as a USER (XPsp3 OS) the program "loads" popping up various windows but then finally seems to work. One of the windows says the stdole32.tlb is corrupt or does not exist please run setup again. This does not happen when logged in as ADMIN. I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, changing permissions in the registry (even though that fix applied to NT and 2000) and using Windows Installer Cleanup utility all to no avail. Historically, I installed Office XP and uninstalled it and then installed Office 2003 before I noticed the problem. I am setting up a fresh virtual machine to determine if a clean XP install with a clean Office XP or 2003 install will solve the problem. If that doesn't work I will resort to a clean install on a "real" (as opposed to virtual) machine and see if that works. Tag: project management gantt chart question Tag: 296565

    - Picture formatting help - Word 2007 I am not able to move pictures in a Word document in 2007 the same way as in 2000 or 2003. Specifically, after inserting a picture into a document, I would right click the picture then choose â??Tightâ?? for the Wrapping Style and â??Otherâ?? for the Horizontal Alignment. Doing this would allow me to highlight the picture and then hold down the â??Altâ?? key while left clicking and dragging the picture to a precise location in the document. I have looked everywhere and tried all options in Word 2007 to find this same functionality and unable to do so. Can anyone tell me if this function is available in 2007? If so, where?!?!

    - MODI writer - Does not appear after reinstall I have searched all through the MODI (Microsoft Document Image Writer) posts on this site and have tried all answers I found (though most answers contained links to other sites that no longer existed). None of them have worked. I've removed and readded the MODI program through the Add/Remove Programs>Office2003 feature, and though I've done that several times, The Microsoft Document Imaging option does not show up in my Printers & Faxes window. Does anyone out there know how to fix this? I cannot convert to a pdf writer or other program, since one of my main programs refers specifically to the MODI for certain functions.

Hello,

I need a project management/Gantt chart program that can allow a project to
be split into tasks that might last only a few minutes at a time. A typical
project might take 2-4 days, but would need to be defined in tasks as short
as 5 minutes !

Can MS Project do this ?

If not, are there any alternatives ?

Thanks

Hi K.,

You can set finite task lengths in MS Project (short ones are not uncommon in, for example, machine process operations). You may
want to check with the folks in the MS Office Project discussion group through the links below with some specifics on your scenario.
