What type of Back up involves selecting the files you want to back up as well as when you want them to backed up?

I'm not sure what exactly are you asking, but here are the possible backup scenarios in Windows 2000
  • Normal - Saves files and folders and shows they were backed up by clearing the archive bit.
  • Copy - Saves files and folders without clearing the archive bit.
  • Incremental - Saves files and folders that have been modified since the last backup. The archive bit is cleared.
  • Differential - Saves files and folders that have been modified since the last backup. The archive bit is not cleared.
  • Daily - Saves files and folders that have been changed that day. The archive bit is not cleared.
You can use Scheduler to point the time you want the backup to be done.

How can I open a backup copy of my quickbooks without modifying my current books?

Open QuickBooks. Go to "file" at the top right side of the page. Slide down to"open or restore company" and click on it. You will get a pop up box that says "what type of file to you want to open or restore?". Mark the box in the second choice that says "restore a back up copy". Then click "next" at the bottom left side of the box and it will take you to a screen that says "is the backup copy stored locally or online?". Unless you are using online back up service for a fee, your only choice is to mark the first box that says "local backup". Click on this box and then choose "next " on the bottom left side of the screen. Now you need to locate the back up copy that you wish to open. Click on the location of the file and choose "open" on the bottom right side of the screen. From that point you follow the prompts until the file opens. Opening a back up copy will not affect your current company file.

How can i change text of Start Button?

You Need to Modify "Explorer.exe File" To make the changes you need to locate and edit the file "explorer.exe" it's located at C:Windows. The file "Explorer.exe" is a binary file, so you will need special editor (Resource Hacker) will do. Resource Hacker is a good freeware utility to view, modify, rename, add, delete and extract resources in 32bit Windows executables and resource files. First Backup "explorer.exe" located at C:\Windows\explorer. You can place it in a special folder or save it to disk. You can also copy and change the file name to "explorerB.exe" (the B is for backup), then you can edit "explorer.exe".

2. Resource Hacker: In Resource Hacker the category will be using is String Table. You need to expand it by clicking on the plus sigh, then navigate down and expand string 37 followed by 1033, (For Classic Layout use number 38). On the right hand pane look for item 578 it show the word "start" this is what we are going to modify.

3. Edit start: To edit the word "start' you just double click on start so that it's highlighted, don't highlight the quotation marks on the sides of start, "start" NOT "start". The new text go's in between the quotation marks, like this "new" remember don't delete the quotation marks. So that it looks like this "new" replace new with your text. This is the old start text "start" delete start text "", inter your text "new" easy right!

4. Compile Script button: Now that you have changed the start text you need to click on the Compile Script button. After you have clicked on the Compile Script button you need to use the Save As command on the File Menu to save the altered file and give it a name. A good file name "explorernew.exe" or make your own. Don't use the Save command use the Save As commaned! Save the newly named file to the C:\Windows.

5. Modify the Registry: Now it's time to modify the registry so that your modified explorer.exe file that you created will be recognized when the user logs on your system. Go to the Start button click on it, then go to Run click on it, type regedit in the Open: field. Now Navigate download the list to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" click on the plus, to SOFTWARE, to Microsoft, to windows NT, to CurrentVersion, to Winlogon. The full string: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\ Windows NT\ CurrentVersion\ Winlogon
Look on the right pane for Shell, double click on Shell entry to open the Edit String dialog box. In the Value date: line enter the name that your used to save the modified explorer.exe file. click on OK.
Now close Registry Editor and exit Windows or log off your system, and then log back on. Now if the computer gods are happy and all went as planned you should see the new Start button with your cool text on it. Remember the force is with you!

How do I eliminate unnecessary redundancies within a given email?

To reduce the multiple forewards to just the bare message, highlight the part of the message you want to select, press "[Ctrl] C" (hold down the Control key and press the "C" key and release both, this is the Microsoft command for COPY). Create a new message, click in the area where you will type the message and press '[Ctrl] V' (for paste) and your message will appear there. You can modify or edit to your hearts content before you send it.
