ABC ~ All
'Bout Computers
Well, my friends, I must say I am VERY impressed with the Fleet this month. Even with all the real and cyber horrors we have been through this month, they managed to deliver some WONDERFUL articles for you. First, let me give a big welcome to the members of WinTips & Tricks, Vic Ferri's tech help group that now includes a free subscription to this newsletter with your membership. Thank You, Vic, for introducing ABC to your new members! Two of our articles this month are in reference to the repercussions of the attack of 9/11. Anna Morvee tells how to avoid the Internet scams that have resulted from this and NightSneak gives us some links to places where we can search for missing loved ones. Our feature this month is by Kathleen Anderson. She has run the online version of this newsletter through Bobby to test its compatibility/accessibility and it seems I need to do some work if I want that Bobby seal of approval. I don't even think I have a favorite article this month. They are all AMAZING. Hal Cardona walks us through all the steps needed to understand those system requirements on our hardware and software packages. Corey Seaton's article on Network Servers is really full of great info to get that home network of yours up and running. And, Vic Ferri finally lets us all know exactly what we need to do when we see that dreaded "BACK UP YOUR REGISTRY FIRST" warning. Lotsa good stuff regarding Microsoft Office this month too. James LaBorde continues his great Access series and tells us all about forms and how to create and use them. Chad Welch really gets into the VBA meat this month with his article on checking conditions. Parker Renaud clearly explains how to setup and manage delegate permissions in Outlook. Tina Clarke's article on using graphics in FrontPage is a definite winner. And, don't miss Chas Kenyon's indepth look into how dates work in Word. Jack Teems gives us an interesting look at the history of the Internet by letting us play "Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?" And, of course, Cap'n Patt has added lots of new terms to the GeekSpeak Translator. And, please don't miss GuitarMan's Outlook Express Tip this month which tells you how to backup your email account information. Most of
all, I hope you enjoy this issue and learn as much from it as I did.
