Combining Word Files in 2003/2004

2010-01-10T07:58:00.000-08:00

When working with information to be included in one document (e.g., sections of a report), you may find it easier to initially group the information into separate files. If so, you will need to later combine the files into a single final document. You can do this using the Copy and Paste functions or using the method described in this document.

Windows:

1.

In the file that will contain all files, place the insertion point where you want another file to be inserted
2.

From the Insert menu, select File...
The Insert File dialog box appears.
3.

From the Look in pull-down list, locate and select the file to be inserted
4.

To insert the file as text, click INSERT
To insert the file as linked text, click theDown Arrownext to INSERT » select Insert as Link
NOTES:
Linking text allows you to easily update the inserted text if the linked document is still being edited.
When changes have been made to a linked document, right click the linked text » select Update Field.
5.

To insert more files, repeat steps 1-4

How Do I Compress One File Into Several Parts?

2010-01-05T05:10:00.001-08:00

Winrar is a powerful compressing software on the market. I prefer Winrar than Winzip (of course because it supports rar files, lol).

If you compress your file(s), you can enter the volume size in
"Split to volumes" field in the "archive name and parameters dialog"
in general tab to create volumes (multi part archives).

For your 10MB need you would type 10,000,000 in the box.
By default it is entered in bytes. But if you add a lowercase letter 'k' at
the end of the volume size, the entered value will be considered as kilobytes
(multiplied by 1024).
Use an uppercase 'K' to denote thousand of bytes (multiply by 1000), '
m' means megabytes and 'M' - million of bytes.

It is also possible to select the volume size from the list associated with
this item. Note that if you are archiving to a removable disk, you may select
"Autodetect" from the list and WinRAR will choose the volume size automatically
for each new volume.

Locate the Split to volumes, bytes drop down box and either choose a size or type in your own.

Use Multiple Google Accounts Simultaneously in Google Chrome

2009-12-25T22:24:00.000-08:00

Google Chrome's incognito mode is less sophisticated than IE8's InPrivate browsing, but it has a feature that will be useful for those who have more than one Google account.

When you open a window in incognito mode (Ctrl+Shift+N), your cookies from the standard session are no longer available and you can easily log in to a new Google account.

Chrome's help center has more details about this feature. "Webpages that you open and files downloaded while you are incognito won't be logged in your browsing and download histories; all new cookies are deleted after you close the incognito window. You can browse normally and in incognito mode at the same time by using separate windows." Michael Jeffrey explains that "incognito mode is a window-level mode - all pages viewed within this window are not persisted to the user's history, and incognito pages use a temporary cookie store that is blank at the start of the incognito session".

When you close the incognito window, all the cookies are deleted so you need to log in again the next time you browse in incognito mode. This trick can be used for any other services that allow multiple accounts, but you can only use two accounts at the same time: one in a standard window and the other one in incognito mode.

Back up of messages from saved messages folders in Nokia

2009-11-18T19:25:00.000-08:00

Intro: I have seen many issue in many discussion forums regarding back up of
messages from saved messages folders

Sample Situation:
The phone performs well. Transfer of data / files from phone to PC and vice-versa are at their best. I have backed-up my contacts. I have also backed up messages from Inbox and Sent items. I had moved some messages from my inbox to the Saved Messages folder. The Saved Messages folder does not appear on the PC Suite. I'm not able to move the messages back to the inbox either- there is no option to do that. I created a new folder in the Saved Messages folder and noticed that it is visible in the phone browser on the PC.but when I moved messages into it and checked the browser on the PC, the new folder is still visible but the messages aren't. I need help in transferring those messages that are in the Saved Messages folder from the phone to the PC.

Solution:
Visit Nokia website
http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/download-software/pc-suites/compatibility-and-download
And download the latest version of Nokia PC suite compatible to your mobile
and install it on to PC.

Connect your mobile to PC and then in Nokia PC suite click on messages , it takes more time to load if messages are more...
I tried this with Nokia 5130 Express music and it worked well ... Hope u try it
Happy browsing....

Something Broken in Picasa Web Albums? Upload Multiple Photos

2009-09-03T07:52:00.000-07:00

A Problem and solution discussed in Google Groups ::

I have been using picasa web albums to upload multiple files at once
and about 2 weeks ago it switched a single upload method. It seems I
have to use Picasa now to upload but I am really happy with my current
desktop viewing program. Any ideas on how to get that bulk upload
back in my Picasa Web Albums?

Solution is :
You are referring to the Advanced Uploader, which is only available
for IE. Make sure you're using Internet Explorer, and if it's set to
Basic Uploader (which makes you pick individual files at a time) click
the 'Upload Control' link; see this screenshot:

How to Delete Your Google Account

2009-09-03T04:28:00.000-07:00

To delete your Google Account, please follow these steps:

Sign in on the Google Accounts homepage. (If you forgot your password, you can reset it).
Click the Edit link next to the 'My products' list. On this page, you can delete your account.
Confirm your account deletion. To do so, you'll need to select these two options: 'Yes, I want to delete my account,' and 'Yes, I acknowledge that I am still responsible for any charges incurred due to any pending financial transactions.' (Please be assured that you can safely select the latter option if you haven't used any of Google's paid products, such as AdWords and Google Checkout, or if you have no pending financial transactions related to these products.)

If you delete your Google Account:

You'll permanently remove the Google products associated with that account, such as your orkut profile, your iGoogle page, and your web history.
If you use Gmail with your account, you'll no longer be able to access that email. You'll also be unable to reuse your Gmail username.

How to block websites without any software

2009-09-02T07:08:00.001-07:00

[For non-techies.]

To block websites on your home computer without investing in expensive software, here’s the trick (for Windows PCs):

Step 1: Click the Start button and select Run. Now type the following text in that Run box:

notepad c:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

Step 2: You will see a new notepad window on your screen containing some cryptic information. Don’t panic. Just goto the last line of the file, hit the enter key and type the following:

127.0.0.1 orkut.com
127.0.0.1 facebook.com
127.0.0.1 myspace.com

Save the file and exit. That’s it. None of the above sites will now open on your computer.

You can block as many websites as you like with the above technique.
If you want to remove the ban later, open the same file as mentioned in Step 1
and delete the above lines.

Multiple Firefox Instances

2009-09-02T05:36:00.000-07:00

It can often be useful to have multiple Firefox browsers open at the same time.
Particularly for testing web sites or any sort of web development.
Or even just so you can be logged into two sites at the same time with different accounts.

Firefox provides such a feature with the -no-remote switch. The first step is to create multiple Firefox profiles.
To do this, launch Firefox with the -ProfileManager switch.

On Windows click Start > Run then:
"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -no-remote -ProfileManager

Then create a new profile. If you want to make a copy of your existing profile, simply create the new profile,
then copy the current profile directory to the new profile directory.

Now you’re ready to launch Firefox with the -no-remote switch.
The trick is that you need to select your second profile when you launch your second instance.
So start Firefox as normal, then launch a second browser.

On Windows click Start > Run then:
"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -no-remote -P "secondprofilename"

Now you should have two separate Firefox windows, each running independently of each other.
If you click on links in another program, they will probably go whichever Firefox window you opened first. Enjoy.

Create an XP Live CD

2009-08-26T02:55:00.000-07:00

One of the easiest ways to do this is using a software called pebuilder. Using it, you can create an XP Live CD in just about 15 minutes!
Here’s all the software you will need:
1. pebuilder (Get pebuilder)
2. Plugins:
xpe-1.0.7.cab (the GUI shell) from here. Other plugins from here.
3. Nero Building ROM
4. A (bootable) XP CD

Step #1 Download Pebuilder and install it.

Step #2 For the wallpaper, replace c:\pebuilder3110a\bartpe.bmp with the image you want as your wallpaper. You can find the default XP wallpaper at c:\windows\web\wallpaper\bliss.bmp (Both these, of course, assume the C drive as the installation location.)

Step #3 Download the plugins:
xpe-1.0.7.cab: This will create the XP start button and taskbar. It is the GUI shell of the XP live CD.
Network Driver Plugin Pack: This provides many network card drivers.
FreeAV Virus Scanner: This integrates FreeAV.
diskexplorer_for_ntfs.cab: A very good file explorer
You can choose you want to download to add functionality.

Step #4 Open pebuilder. Specify the source path to the windows installation file. This should be your Windows XP installation bootable CD, where the i386 folder resides.

StepÂ #5 Click Plugins and add the plugins you have downloaded. Since you have included xpe-1.0.7.cab, disable nu2shell and the startup group.

Step #6 Specify the ISO image file and click Build.

Step #7 After that is done, use Nero (or any other burning software) and burn the image.

-: Rapidshare Hack :-

2009-08-25T23:53:00.001-07:00

There are two hacks to beat Rapidshare download limits and waiting time.

1) Rapidshare Hack (For Firefox Users) :-
The hot new Firefox plug-in takes browser customization to a whole new level by letting users filter site content or change page behaviors.
The glory of open-source software is that it allows anyone with the inclination and the scripting knowledge to get under the hood and hot-rod their computing environment.
But most of the time, that advantage is available only to people with the programming skills to make the changes they want.

That's where Greasemonkey, a free plug-in for Firefox, comes in -- it simplifies hacking the browser.

Released at the end 2004, Greasemonkey is the latest in a growing arsenal of Firefox customization tools.
It changes how Web pages look and act by altering the rendering process.

http://greasemonkey.mozdev.org/

1) Install the Greasemonkey extension>>
http://downloads.mozdev.org/greasemonkey/greasemonkey_0.2.6.xpi
2) Restart Firefox
3) Go to http://rapidshare.de/files/1034529/rapidshare.user.js.html
4) Right click on rapidshare.user.js and choose "Install User Script".
5) Run FireFox.
6) From 'File' Menu click on Open File then browse to whereever you saved the 'greasemonkey.xpi' plug-in.
Open it, wait a couple seconds for the install button becomes active.
7) Click on it to install this plug-in then CLOSE FIREFOX.
8) Run FireFox again.
From the File Menu click on Open File then browse to whereever you saved the 'rapidshare.user.js'.
9) Open it.
10) Click the Tools Menu then click on Install User Script then click OK.
11) Close FireFox.

The script will let you enjoy "no wait" and multiple file downloads......!
