In windows xp professional & windows 2000, We were not able to start Task Manager and received error message 1717, this error was resloved by starting 'Event Log' Service in Administrative services.

It was a great problem in sending large file more then 2 mb via email (as it is restriction imposed most of the ISP), for this either we have to use, our yahoo mail pro account or get some other arrangment.
As yahoo mail pro account is only accessible only to me, it becomes necessary to have alternate arrangement for the staff for sending file larger then 2 mb through regular e-mail server (bsnl server in our case).
After taking trial of number of softwares like pando, beamfile etc we zero on www.yousendit.com.
Yousendit comes with good features and it has (a) Desktop software for sending the file directly from computer, (b) Microsoft Outlook Plugin to send the file directly from Microsoft Outloook, (d) web interface, this becomes very convinent for s
Today, Ronak was trained how to use yousendit from Microsoft Outlook, desktop and web.
Using of total station and working with the surveyor on the site for the young and in-experience Civil Engineer is a nightmare.
The principle of surveying with Total Station is a technique which most of the fresh graduates does not understand and have to rely on the Sr. Surveyor or the field staff where there are full chances that they can be mis-guided.
This was the issue I address when I took up the project for the preparation of DPR at Bihar where my young team of surveyor was blind in deciding the new alignment. The team was in no direction because they were desserted by the Sr. Surveyor.
I have to address this issue with then surveyor Mr. Rajeev who now works in my office as my assistant.
The extensive study with the survey team at bihar resulted for me in collection of some of the information how a survey work can be carried out and what kind of correction we should apply for the correct survey.

Naming Files in Windows According to Ed Bott and Woody Leonhard the following are the requirements for Windows filenames:
1. A filename may contain any alphanumeric character, including the letters A to Z and numbers from 0 to 9.
2. The full filename (including drive letter, colon, backslashes, and folder names) may be as long as 255 characters.
3. The filename itself may be as short as one character.
4. The following special characters are allowed in a filename: $ % - _ @ ~ ` ' ! ( ) ^ # & + , ; = . [ ] { }
5. Spaces are allowed in filenames.
6. The following special characters are prohibited from being a part of a filename because they have special meanings to the operating system (DOS underlying Windows):
/ \ | : * ? " < >
You'll get an error message if you try to use one of them.
Windows files (and Office files in particular) typically include a three-letter extension, which is added automatically by the program that created the file (such as .doc for files created by Word). However, an extension is not required, nor are extensions limited to three characters. Windows treats any characters following the last period in the filename as an extension.

Although the above are requirements, they have a couple of recommendations or notes:
1. They recommend limiting the name of the file itself to about 40 characters so that you don't have trouble moving files with deeply nested folders.
2. If you use a nonstandard extension you may have difficulty opening the file from Windows. In Microsoft Office programs files with nonstandard extensions will not appear in file dialog boxes unless you change the file type to All Files.
3. Windows filenames are not case sensitive. MyFile.doc is treated the same as MYFILE.DOC and myfile.doc. However, if you are publishing to a web page, the web server may be using a different operating system that does pay attention to case.
4. Word marks temporary files with a beginning tilde (~) character. I would recommend not using this as the beginning character for any file that will be used by any of the MS Office programs.

This is where a macro comes in handy. It can quickly search through a document to see if a particular style is used anywhere. If it isn't, then the style can be easily deleted. The following macro,
DeleteUnusedStyles, does just that.
End Sub
'**********************************************************************************
Note that the macro ignores a style if it is a built-in style.
This is because deleting a built-in style doesn't really delete it, but only resets that style to its original, default condition. In fact, Word doesn't allow built-in styles to be deleted from a document. Even if the built-in style is no longer used, but was once used in the document, it will still show up in the styles drop-down list. If this bothers you, there are additional steps you can take to "delete" the listing of these built-in styles. These steps can be rather involved, and are best described in Knowledge Base article KB193536:
