Word 2007 Default font issue

Matt Frye — Thu, 24 May 2007 12:05:45 GMT

Hi Guys

Heres one for ya all sent to me by our first full vista and 2007 client.

“When you open word as a programme, any default settings (eg. Font, pitch) that have been set by the user automatically appear correctly. However, if you are already working in Word and open a new document when in an appropriate folder, by right click, new, Word document, then the user set defaults do not appear.”

i know this is a slightly "Cack?" handed way of doing it but admin girls will be admin girls and it seemed to work ok in 2003 is their anyway of setting this?

on an overall note Office 2007 (and Vista) has been received well and has very minor niggles only - so far.

cheers

Domain user rights issue

Matt Frye — Sun, 05 Nov 2006 21:45:28 GMT

Hi all

having installed Vista (RC2) dual boot on my Laptop

i then connected to my work domain via VPN - nice

local logon, RPC over Http, VPN all work well.

i have however noticed one Issue, when not connected via VPN or physically connected to the (work) network, my domain user does not have admin rights on the laptop.

if i look in computer management users and groups administrators group. I get the 'domain\username'(s-1-5-21-??????????-?????????-???????????-????) account. and one other s-1-5-21-??????????-?????????-???????????-???? Account.
If i then connect to the vpn the accounts appear correctly my domain account and the domain admin acount. and i have rights.
odly if i disconnect then the accounts remain and correct. but when i reboot they are incorrect again.

Have i done something wrong in the setup?
or is anyone else having the same issue?

cheers people

sbsmonitoring database

Hi all and firstly thanks Dave for this invaluable resource!

and your input at the SBS WOE a few months ago.

We have a couple of clients running WSS nicely on their SBS servers but both of them have called in with network issues recently.

on investigation i found that their SBS monitoring database had grown to over a Gb and had killed the servers disk space

1. i am not certain but it seemed to grow quite quickly ? is this correct.

2. how do i best monitor and ultimately keep the file to a sensible size? an article i found suggested that re running the health and monitoring wizard would fix it. is this correct

cheers for your help guys and girls as always
