  1. We have just changed from XP to WIndows 7 and one of our Account Supervisors are finding it different to work with. In Excel in the number format you can't format negative numbers in red and ( ). You can set up a custom but then you have to set it up for all documents. You can set up a Macro which he did but it is an additional step. In Accounting this is a normal practice to you brackets around negative numbers. He has found in Power Point that was created in Office 7 on XP is he embedded a spreadsheet worked on it then came out it would automatically autosize the sheet back to fit the slide on his new machine if he works with the embedded spreadsheet it doesn't resize it's self and leaves the spread sheet showing outside the slide. He has a number of Presentations that he uses from year to year and he is starting to worry that it is going to take a lot of time with his new system. One of the neat things that worked in XP was the ability in the Open screen of any of the suites application that you could create a shortcut to in the left hand side of that screen that would allow a person to open a folder quickly instead of creating a mapped drive. These are a few of the things that only cropped up after we moved from XP to Windows 7. I have never seen an operating system change the way a program runs . I have seen changes on how to open a program but not the internal workings. If you have any ideas on how to correct the problems that I have listed above please let me know. View the thread
  2. I have a a6410t HP PC. I clicked on CONTROL PANEL-PERSONALIZATION-ADJUST FONT SIZE (DPI) - CUSTOM DPI entered 206 ,clicked on APPLY and restarted PC.. But the size of the font increased the window size so much that I can't get to the bottom where the CUSTOM DPI AND apply buttons are so I can make it small again. Also can't use Restore for the same reason., any help will be greatly appreciated and time is critical. View this thread

  13. Why is a small gray blinking box in my bing search window on the left side inside the bar where you type? Started last month May 2012. My computer is up to date via microsoft.
