Help !! I installed Office - and as Administrator, I can access all the
programs - but my current standard users (and ones that I just created) can
only see Excel. Also - when I drag a program onto my desktop, it disappears
from the Program list - how do I get it back on there ? Thanks for any
help. I'm desperate

Hi, I can't answer the 1st. question. The 2nd one is simple. Just dra
it back to the Bottom of the program list. It will not be i
alphabetical order, but it's back in there. I did that no more 6 hour
ago while I was trying some silly experiments which failed, and
dragged the program back to the window list
The 1st. question might have somethiong to do with "right-clicking th
program, Run As Administrator ", then open the program. I'm jus
guessing, don't shoot me if it was wrong method

Hi there David's second answer doesn't work. You're stuffed, like me.


Wait till they reissue Windows 95; that will be a REAL advance on this
hopeless mess.
