[Running IE 7 on a Windows 7 Pro machine]

If Dblake1's suggestion does not work, if you are running an eligible version of windows 7 you can install Windows XP Mode and then upgrade it to IE 7 and there is a registry key you need to add so you can see it in win7.

Thanks for the info, I tried running it in compatability mode. Do you know what the registry key is to change?

[Running IE 7 on a Windows 7 Pro machine]

Is it possible to run IE 7 on a Windows 7 Pro machine? I have a web base site that will not run in IE 8 needs IE 7. I have tried to install IE 7 on the Windows 7 machine in compatability mode, still get error message "This installation does not support you operating system's current Service Pack version".

Thanks for your help

[Merg data into Word 2007 from Excel 2007]

I need to create a mail merg letter in Word 2007. I'm using an Excel 2007 spread sheet for my merged data. There are 2 columns in the spread sheet that are numbers with , ie: 234,631. When I do the merge, the commas do not come over. I have tried reformatting the colums and saving the spread sheet 3 different ways. This merged worked in Word 2003 using a spredsheet saved as a DDE, but I do not see this in Excel 2007. Any ideas on how to merg data with commas in the numbers.

Thanks

[User Name when Unlock a Computer]

I upgraded Windows XP from SP 2 to SP3. My users no longer see their User Name in the field after they lock their computer and do a Ctrl-Alt-Del to resume. Is there a setting some where that will allow users to see their user name? I went through Services and Registry to see if I can find out why I'm not getting this any more. The users have limited access, but as a network administrator I don't have this problem.

Thanks

[Server2003 SP 2 Automatic Serviced do not start on reboot]

When I reboot Windows 2003 Server with SP 2 I have several services that do not start including MSDTC. When I shut down the server completely and restart, these services start the way they are suppose too. Any ideas why these services don't start on a reboot?

Thank you
