I am getting desperate. I have a report that must be finished by midnight, and W4W doesn't seem to have what appears to be a MUST! I use the autonum field for numbering chapters, but my document is distributed amongst several files. I just can't find a way to make Word start the numbering at something else than 0 or 1. Of course, everything is fine in the first file, but it's pretty stupid when ALL chapters are numbered as 1 !!!!!!!!  Please, if you have ANY solution to this (except from putting it all in one 10M document ...) e-mail me immediately ! As I am working on th report I hardly have any time to read News, so please e-mail me. All answers will be heartly welcome ...  In advance, thanx a lot !!!!!!
I posted this to the apps group and didn't get any response, so I'll try here. I am trying to use the latex help feature available in emacs for windows and read that you need a separate latexhlp.zip file along with a vms2hlp.zip file to convert this to windows help. Has anyone found these files or gotten this command help to work?
Hello,  	Who can tell me   Where can I find the PD or ShareWare    Which can CAPTURE windows 3.1's output of printer mananger?  	I want to capture the output of HP Laser Jet III.

I am looking for a printer utility which stay in Window 3.1 as an icon and let you drag a file to it to issue the printing.
Does anyone out there know if there are print drivers for Windows for the Panasonic KX-P1091i 9-pin dot matrix printer?

You gave the impression that you should not use smartdrive with stacker.   You are correct re: caching the compressed drive.  However, as I understand it, you can cache the uncompressed drive.  Thus if you have compressed your disk C:, you will have a C and probably a D drive under stacker.  C being the compressed disk (which is just a large file on D:) and D being the uncompressed disk.  You should only attempt to stack D:.  In fact, with Win 3.1 and smartdrv.exe, it seems smart enough to automatically default to stacking your A,B and D drives.
I'm using BC++'s ObjectWindows (3.1), trying to resond to the left button double click message WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK in a combo box. My codes look like:  class MyComboBox : public TComboBox { public: 	MyComboBox(PTWindowsObject AParent, int ResourceId, WORD ATextLen) : 		TComboBox(AParent, ResourceId, ATextLen) {}; 	virtual void WMLButtonDblClk(RTMessage Msg) = [WM_FIRST + WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK]; };  void MyComboBox::WMLButtonDblClk(RTMessage Msg) { 	...	// responding to the message (selecting the item in the list box) }  Anything wrong with my program? Any help would be appreciated.

There are books written on this one.  In general, just be sure to free up everything that you ask for before you exit.

There's little discussion because it's 'inevitable' until MS manages to come up with an OS that will do garbage collection or something on the resource pool.  --  "Insisting on perfect safety is for people who don't have the balls to live  in the real world."   -- Mary Shafer, NASA Ames Dryden

I don't think it's the awkward  recursive deletion that's bugging people, it certainly isn't the nice Windows  interfaces for new DOS accessories (CPAV, defrager, undelete).  	As far as I've noticed, it's DoubleSpace crashes.  Frankly, the fairly high rates of DoubleSpace crashes I've heard of surprises  me!  I figured that since the OS is presumably aware of DoubleSpace, it is  less likely to crash (unlike Stacker, which fools the OS... but DO is gullible  anyway :).  DOS 6 _is_ aware of DoubleSpace isn't it?  Anyway, good job on DOS 5, and DOS 6 is good for new users.  Just beware the  doublespace!

By deliberately crippling the product?  Surely no...  Oh, hold on, I guess you're right.  That certainly stinks of MicroSoft marketing techniques.  But the point still remains that a command to delete trees is not new technology, and is the kind of thing one would have expected to see long before Windows was even dreamt of.  >       Want good file handling?

And I suspect its going to carry on twitching for a long while yet, which isn't doing anyone any good.  (And MicroSoft don't appear to have given up marketing DOS, so it is a very unusual form of death indeed).

My HD was stacked with Stacker v.2.0 (I run Dos5) Suddenly everything hung up, and most of the HD got corrupted (directories changed into unreadable files with 'funny' names). In other words: it is probably just the doubledisk part of Dos6 that is troublesome.

Hello All!      It is my understanding that all True-Type fonts in Windows are loaded in prior to starting Windows - this makes getting into Windows quite slow if you have hundreds of them as I do.  First off, am I correct in this thinking - secondly, if that is the case - can you get Windows to ignore them on boot and maybe make something like a PIF file to load them only when you enter the applications that need fonts?  Any ideas?   Chris
Hey all...I got an equation editor, and since it didn't automagically appear in my "object" dialog box (i.e. insert-->object-->equation), I decided to manually place it there.  So I went into win.ini (is there another way to do this?), the [embedding] section, and added   equation=equation,equation,<path\filename>,picture.  didn't work. quit windows, go back.  AHA: mistake. Correct it.  It looks fine. start windows...doesn't work.  play with it for a while, at one point having two entries to see if one works and th'other don't, and finally I get it to work.  The only thing I can see that's different now is that it's now the first item on the list, and it used to be the last.  But now I end up with *three* "equation" entried, and *all* of them working. (and only one entry in win.ini).  so does any netian know what's wrong? or rather, how to correct this? (i.e. make "equation"appear but once?).  Also, all the entries in the [embedding] appear as above. It's obvious that <path\filename> is the executable, or whatever, and "picture" has something to do withthe way it appears (picture/description?)  but what are the others? i.e., in  soundrec=sound,sound, whate's the difference between the 1st "sound" and the 2nd?   and what is "soundrec"?? (I don't think it's the name of the executable, as other entries (e.g. MSWorksChart=...) aren't)  thanks, i.a. Mickey
I'm looking for a program that will let me use a windows common dialog box to select a file to use when running a DOS app.  	Basically, I have several DOS apps that I use now and then with different files.  They all accept a file as a command line  parameter, but the only way (at least that I know of) to do this easily when running them from windows is to set up the PIF file so that it prompts me for additional parameters (at which point I type  in the file name).    Problems are:  	1) Sometimes I can't remember where the file is exactly located and it would be nice to browse my directories for it without having to use the file manager. 	     and 2) I'm lazy and hate to type long pathnames for files burried  several directory levels deep.  	If anyone can point me to such a program or let me know of some other way to handle this, I'd appreciate it.  Thanks,  Tim --  	The Net isn't organized enough to be considered an anarchy

Hi,  	I've got an older 386/25 motherboard (old as in, uses a 1988 keyboard controller, and uses memory interleaving rather than caching). It has developed a problem where trying to copy files from floppy cause the machine to lock up (reset button required), but only when in 386 enhanced mode.  This occurs in Norton Desktop, File Manager, and when trying to install software.  Running Win 3.1 in standard mode works fine.  	Has anyone run into this?  Any ideas?  Much thanks appreciated.
After setting up Windows for using my Cirrus Logic 5426 VLB GraphicsCard It moved a normal Window from one place to another.  My Parameters where just the following : 486 DX 33 VLB  The Card is equipped with 1 MB Dram (not Vram, there are 8 sockets for Vram)  And the moving of the window just looked like it looked at a friends 386DX 25 (387DX) and an normal ISA ET4000  What I was wondering why is it not using the BITBLT  Engine which is suuposed to be on the Chip.  How are the experiences here.. Have I done something wrong ? (I installed the MSWIN 3.1 MultiResolution drivers which where supplied  with the Card ?!) Would be nice if somebody could tell about his experience with this card Also if there are new(hopefully faster) drrivers around I would love to  how to get hold of them :-) (ftp or whatsoever :-) )
