Windows 95/98 and NT How-To Guide
|
I started looking around in the Microsoft Knowledge Base,
and I did a search with 'How to" as a search phrase. Well, you see
what I found. More How To's than I know How To count. Little
joke there. Anyway here they are. Write me and tell me if these
are more convenient in a framed page or a full page. I really like
you opinion. personally I like the idea of a full page because my original
page is still open for other work.
This is a real gold mine below.
Many people don't want to go to the Microsoft Knowledge Base for several
reasons. It's often too busy, you have to register and give your life story,
and it reads information from your system; or so it's said??
Here's a Very FAST way to retrieve an article in text.
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/peropsys/WIN95/KB/Qxxx/x/xx.TXT Just copy the
above and put the numbers in place of the x's. The article will fly to
you browser, save it wherever you want.
So, when you run your mouse over a link, look in the bottom bar and
you'll see the article number. You can use that if you like.
