How can I stop Windows 7, showing all the user once a user disconnects
Hello
I use Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
I went to the Start button. All programs | Accessories | Run, and ran the following command...
controluserpasswords2
... Running this command opens the "User accounts" window, on which I unchecked the option for "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Then, I chose a particular user that I had named "Auto-connect" and entered the password of this user so that this user 'AutoLogon' could be connected automatically on every time the PC boots. This is how I want to just it.
The "Automatic logon" user has limited privileges, I want my users to be able to and sign out and then sign in as a user with higher privileges. Currently, when I try to do it by clicking the Start button, and then selecting Shutdown | Logoff, this brings me to the kind of a "Welcome screen" that displays a a separate icon for each user name which I configured on this PC.
I really prefer if instead of indicating the name of each user configured at this point, that Windows would require the user to type in here a user name valid (rather than just picking from the list).
If someone can tell me if this is possible (without giving up the ability to automatically connect my 'Automatic login' user), I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance,
Paul
Run the policy editor gpedit.msc, then look for the item "Interactive logon". Now, select the item "do not display last user name."

How can I stop Windows Search to steal the focus on the text input area?
How can I stop Windows Search to steal the focus on the text input area?
I can type about three characters maximum and then results focus, and I have to click with the mouse to the area of searching at the end.
For example - I want to get "Img1.bak".
I type 'I' "m" and then I'm whisked away and the 'g', I typed just takes me to the "great songs by Imogen Heap.txt" or what is the first result starting with g.
I have to reselect the text box and add a letter or two at a time to get what I need. Very frustrating.

How can I reinstall windows 7 after replacing the hard drive?
How can I reinstall windows 7 after replacing the hard drive? do I have to call microsoft or I can retrieve it somehow to the old hard drive?
Well, that certainly puts a different point of view on this subject. There are data recovery services that can recover data from disks that have suffered from various types of failures. However, they are quite expensive. Unless the data is particularly useful, it is generally not useful.
If your Windows 7 is an OEM version, installed on the computer when you bought it, the manufacturer could have a recovery disk on sale. If it was a retail copy and you always have the appropriate product/serial number, you can get a DVD of their team of parts replacement.

In the date picker, how can I default to select * dates if the user does not select a date.
Thank you
DougDoug,
Now lets say l want everything
Could you post some sample data and the output you want to get... ? It would be very easy to understand the requirements...
When you mean everything, I guess you need all possible dates between date1 and date2.
You can use... (to asktom.oracle.com).
1 select to_date('12-jan-2009','DD-MON-YYYY') + rownum -1 2 from ALL_OBJECTS 3 where rownum <= (to_date('20-jan-2009','dd-mon-yyyy') - 4* to_date('12-jan-2009','DD-MON-YYYY') +1 ) sql> / TO_DATE(' --------- 12-JAN-09 13-JAN-09 14-JAN-09 15-JAN-09 16-JAN-09 17-JAN-09 18-JAN-09 19-JAN-09 20-JAN-09 9 rows selected. For your case, since you have date1 and date2... select to_date(:p12_date1,'DD-MON-YYYY') + rownum -1 from ALL_OBJECTS where rownum <= (to_date(:p12_date2,'dd-mon-yyyy') - to_date(:p12_date1,'DD-MON-YYYY') +1 )
Should work... in my opinion... Have not tested the other by their Summit.
Is that what you're looking for... ?? If no, please give details...
Thank you
