Do they come with a magnifying glass?

Why are evil oppressive regimes allow to take part in the Olympics?
kearton replied to nicholab's topic in General Chat
Yes, NZ is at the top of the table per capita.... 2012 London Olympic Results by Population -
Yep. That's much easier (Duh me!)

Open a Command Prompt at x:\location\yr11 and do a "DIR >c:\usernames.txt" Then open the file in Excel as Fixed Width and strip off the first 36 characters. Then Sort it alphabetically and clean up the handful of extra lines (bytes free, .., etc) that remain.

It's possible I completely misunderstand what you want (and this may be exactly what you are trying NOT to do?) but Robocopy is my weapon of choice when it comes to copying or moving large amounts of data. Put a list of usernames (1 per line) in a file called users.txt then use something like: FOR /f %i IN (users.txt) DO robocopy "Z:\student data\yr11\%i" "h:\student data\yr11\%i" /e /copyall (/move?) (/log:c:\usercopy.txt?) Usual disclaimers.... Do this at your own risk.... Robocopy will happily DELETE things too if you tell it to... I ALWAYS test these scripts with a few test folders first.

From the 'Discover Technical Guide' (not the 'Discover Typical Installation Guide'): The client installer has the following command line properties: INSTALLDIR - The installation directory (Defaults to %ProgramFiles%\SIMS\Discover Client) SQLSERVER - The SQL Server instance that hosts the Discover database. DATABASENAME - The name of the Discover database. SIMSQLSERVER - The SQL Server instance that hosts the SIMS database. SIMSDATABASENAME - The name of the SIMS database. e.g SIMSDiscoverClient.msi /quiet /log %TEMP%\client.log INSTALLDIR="C:\DiscoverClient" SQLSERVER="SRVR\SQLEXPRESS" DATABASENAME="Discover" SIMSSQLSERVER="SRVR\SQLEXPRESS" SIMSDATABASENAME="SIMS"

[ms office - 2010] Interactive menu to ribbon guide needed
kearton replied to kearton's topic in Office Software
I still can't believe how hard I had to argue with the person on the phone (read: foreign call center) when they told me that x86 meant 64-bit... And they PAY these people? -
I've just spent 45 minutes on this (and still haven't succeeded in solving it) and it's doing my head in...

D'oh! Cannot believe I did not think of that. Thank you SO much! -
[ms office - 2010] Interactive menu to ribbon guide needed
kearton replied to kearton's topic in Office Software
Could someone with 32-bit Windows 7 do me a favour and try installing this and see if it works for them pretty please? MS employees are doing my head in getting me to try all sorts of things and saying its not a problem with the download, which they insist is 32-bit and works on their 32-bit PCs (despite the original person I spoke to claiming they she got the same error as me after all on hers) -
Go to 'Settings' at bottom of Google.com page. Go to Handwrite section. Enable. Loving it!

I've found IE9 to be nothing but buggy and unstable...

Surprised you haven't heard it. Thought it was an old (Kiwi?) saying. My Dad (aged 84) has been saying it for as long as I can remember...

HA! I was going to post something almost identical a couple of days ago because I was so hopping mad too. The only difference was that it was [energy supplier] and not [mobile network] that called me. Some organisations haven't got two clues to rub together when it comes to security...

kearton replied to kearton's topic in Office Software
After 75 minutes (including a very interesting argument where the phone agent was insisting that x86 meant 64-bit!?!) on the phone with Micro$oft, they've finally admitted that there is a problem with that download and they're going to try and find me a 32-bit version... -
[ms office - 2010] Interactive menu to ribbon guide needed
kearton posted a topic in Office Software
Does anyone have the file PublisherInteractiveGuideSetupEN.exe or PublisherInteractiveGuideSetupEN.msi please? I would expect to find it here (Microsoft Publisher 2010: Interactive menu to ribbon guide) but MS seem to have changed this recently (read: a few days ago) and now it's either broken or 64-bit only. (All the other downloads for other Office apps are working) -

Anyone deployed Sibelius 7.1 over a network?
kearton replied to Sheridan's topic in Educational Software
Yes (for v7 but should work with 7.1?): Sibelius702b8.exe /SERIAL=SCEWxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx /LSINFO=LicenseServerIP:Port /SILENT (can also optionally add /NOCANCEL /NORESTART if required) Then I change a registry key to point to a network location for the sounds: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Avid\Sibelius Sounds\Sibelius 7 Sounds\ContentPath] @="P:\\Music\\Sibelius 7 Sounds" -
con2prt.exe /f is handy for removing network printers (e.g in logout script)

If you wanted, you can switch OFF *nearly* all the filtering.... there is a small amount you can't switch off, such as Remote Support Tools sites and those they are required to (by law, presumably?) such as those about paedophilia etc. I found it to be about a 90% useful and 10% rubbish (e.g Sales talk about their other products)

I've encountered this problem recently too. We use TMG for Proxy. Java is trying to authenticate anonymously. To get around it I have created a rule on TMG to allow unauthenticated access to HTTP and HTTPS for a list of specified websites.
