I have to respond to this one...

You may not go through all the "trouble of creating the links", but by
the time you've clicked Edit | Find (Ctrl-F to the keyboard savy) and
typed in the name of the sheet (what was it called again?) - possibly
clicked find next several times...I would have clicked on the sheet,
found my information and closed it! Also for infrequent users of the
spreadsheet, they will be able to easily find their information. Might
even want to create a macro or link on the sheets to take you back to
the "home" page.

As demonstrated by the answers to this query, there are many solutions
each having pros and cons.

Is it Friday yet?

It is a drop down "Within" Sheet or Workbook.

I wouldn't go through all the trouble of doing the extra worksheet and
doing links

Just at the top left hand corner cell A1 put the Name of the sheet
within the sheet the name of the tab and when you search the entire
workbook, it will go to that cell, unless there is another cell with
that exact name of the tab in it???

What are you searching for? Specific data within any sheet? Just do
a
ctrl-F for find, and under the extended options, you can choose to
search
the entire workbook or just the current sheet.

Hello,

Does anyone know of a utility that might be contained in NT Server or
Workstation or in one of the resource kits to allow you to push a file out
to PC's in your domain with administrator priv's? Or, one you can download?

I need to get some files out to all PC's and would rather not have to walk
to each one (35) or Email and have the user try and put them in the correct
place.


Thanks

You could create a shortcut and copy the shortcut to the client PCs in the
logon.bat file. That way the file would retain the correct rights.

As a workaround without a utility:

If your workstations are NT 4.0 or above, you can log onto your
workstation (assuming it's NT) with administrative privliges;
Use the start/run command and open each user's local hd:

//user1/c$ and copy the file to whatever directory you wanted to.

Another off topic request.

In our ongoing battle of trying to keep end users from installing bootleg
software on their PC's or otherwise messing with the configurations ...

We currently use Crowd Control for our Win-95 and Win-98 machines. However,
Crowd Control will not work with Win-NT or Win-2000 machines.

We have reviewed Deep Freeze and run into the same limitation. ( Although
Deep Freeze is supposed to have a new version in 6 to 8 months that will
work. )

Baseball bats have also been to no avail ...

Does anyone know of a utility that will run on an Win-NT and/or Win-2000
machine that totally prevents end users from installing software or changing
the configuration ?

Thanks,

If they are not administrators of the local machine, NT will prevent them
from installing any software that would alter the system (i.e. most Windows
programs). If that isn't enough, Policy Editor (poledit) will let you
specify exactly which programs the system is allowed to run.

Try removing the CD-ROM's and Floppy drives. Then if you really want to get
people mad, install roving profiles and setup the policy editor, and start
removing items like the RUN command and SETTING folder from the start
button. Then set it up so that they can not browse network drives, etc. Its
worked very well on our shop SPC stations.

Hey Brian, Why not use manditory profiles? It's a pain to set up but well
worth it if you have users who think they are rocket scientist. You can set
it up so that they can only view what is on the screen and have access only

NT gives you more power as the administrator...policy editor works well. Of
course, if removing the drives seems too drastic, there are these little
devices you can get that insert into the drive and LOCK!!! Now, I'm sure
the locks are pickable, but it would slow 'em down a bit. Also, just
disconnecting the drive inside the box rather than removing it worked for a
couple of our systems. Then I could re-connect it fairly easily.

Unfortunately, physical punishment (the old fashioned stocks come to mind)
now gets you into trouble with all kinds of government agencies and brings
lawyers into your building.

iF THE WORK STATIONS ARE NT, YOU CAN USE THE WORKSTATION SECURITY TO LIMIT
ANY KIND OF ACTIVITY, (i'VE DONE SUCH ON OUR 18+ NT MACHINES), No one does

I want to add a second switch and make a 2nd subnet to speed things
up around here. How do I start and what do I do to get both subnets
to recognize each other. Any help would be most appreciated. Please
respond to lheisey@.... thanks.
Why do you want to add a second IP subnet? Perhaps a better question is "Why
do you think your Ethernet bandwidth is a problem ?".

Using switches instead of hubs should negate any reason for using subnets
unless you have routers connecting 2 facilities. If you are going to use
switches, take a look at the Cisco 2924XL switch. It allows you to use
multiple wires for connecting the 2 switches. IE 2 wires would give you a
400 Mbps link, 5 wires would give you a 1 gig link. Works great, less
filling.

I want to add a second switch and make a 2nd subnet to speed things
up around here. How do I start and what do I do to get both subnets
to recognize each other. Any help would be most appreciated. Please
respond to lheisey@.... thanks.

Sub-netting is sort of passe, unless you have a really big site and are
running routers, or have two locations talking over a WAN
connection. 100Mb switched ethernet should handle a place the size of a
typical Vantage customer. Switches have gotten inexpensive enough, that
it's not too expensive to have every workstation on it's own switched port.

What are you running with currently?

Has anyone been able to get Star Office 5.2 to run with Windows XP without
giving the user Administrator rights?
