  • 1. Overlaying a graphic in Word - Word 2000
    I am creating a business card for our club... we want to overlay text over the club's logo... this has been done before in Word 2000, but the designer is no longer available, so we are doing it ourselves... I know it can be done because he sent me a Word document with a graphic on it and text overlaid the graphic for me print for my personal business card... I cannot figure out he did it... any ideas? I tried inserting the graphic in a text box, but it wouldn't allow me to type over the graphic...

  • 3. Upgraded to Office 2003 - network templates problem
    I had a network templates folder set up in Office XP and when I clicked file/new and got the task pane the templates in this folder were listed. If I clicked on one of them, a new workbook opened based upon that template. I have now upgraded to office 2003, and the New Workbook taskpane shows my templates under the heading "NEW". However, even though they appear to be "clickable" (I get a hand when I mouse over) nothing happens when I click. NOTHING. I have worked around the problem by reading every posting on this forum and finding one that told me how to get them to show up under "Recently Used Templates". So now they show up twice on my "New Workbook" task pane, once under "NEW" and lower down under "Recently Used". But the ones at the top (under "NEW") still do not work. Can anyone tell me why, or how to fix this? It isn't urgent anymore, since I found the work around. It just bugs me.

File Name Too Long For Recycle Bin - Cannot Delete

Help!!!

Somehow when transferring old emails from one IBM T40 to the My Documents folder on another, identical, IBM T40, much of the body of the text of an old Outllook email message somehow became part of the file name.  XP will not let me delete the file and gives me an error message that the file name is too long for the Recycle Bin ... and it will not let me rename it or move it either.  It is in a subfolder of My Documents and I have tried deleting all of the folders above it as well and I get the same message.

I have been on the phone for several hours with IBM Techinical Support and they have no solution as well, other than to call Microsoft.

Have you tried Shift-Del to delete while bypassing the recycle bin?

You may also want to try the following:  http://www.**--****.com/

ended up sending these files to the RECYCLE BIN on my

DELETING them, I also deleted a file 'Inbox' that I 
thought was part of the problem.  I pray there is a way to 
retrieve these emails I accidentally deleted!!!  PLEASE 
HELP ME!  These were very important emails regarding 
employment!  Thank you.
