2) ZUBAIR'S TIP O' THE WEEK: VIEWING MULTIPLE ATTACHMENTS IN
OUTLOOK 2003
QUESTION:
Is there a way to view multiple attachments at once in
Microsoft
Outlook 2003?
ANSWER:
Unfortunately, there's no easy way to view all the
attachments at once
in Outlook 2003. You need to view one attachment at a time.
The
attachment behavior has some interesting limitations in
Outlook. For
example, you can save multiple attachments at once but you
can't
remove them all at once. You must remove one attachment at a
time from
an e-mail message. If you are interested in viewing multiple
picture
attachments, then you might want to try the technique
described in the
MSDN article "Viewing Multiple Picture Attachments in
Outlook 2003" at
http://tinyurl.com/ae9vt
This document shows you how to build a custom
VBA User Form that lets you select and view e-mail picture
attachments
without opening and closing them one after another.

*Definition of EtherChannel* (CCNA/CCNP forum)
Dilan77 writes:
"I am having difficulty visualizing Fast EtherChannel.
According
to the books and definitions on the Web, it's a bundle of
links,
treated as one link, to allow for redundancy.
I can't get this picture into my head though! Can you get
this on
access layer switches, such as the 2950, to distribution
layer? Or
are they distribution to core only?"

*Cheap Options To Replace Windows ME* (CompTIA --
A+/Network+ forum)
wintacs writes:
"So I am working on this PC for free to gain
experience. It is
running Win ME but I can't dial out. So I figure it is the
board.
Or maybe some complex Win ME bull. It has a new modem. I
asked
the lady if she had a disk to reformat. Nope. I also let her
know the Microsoft does not support Win ME.
I need some ideas on a cheap or free OS so that this lady
can load
her NetZero and do a class online. She is using dial-up. Is
there
an OS built so basic just for this purpose? This PC is very
old.
Only has 64MB of memory and 667 Celeron. Any ideas?"
