    I think it was only possible for fellow facebookers to view - technically facebook is not a file sharing site, unlike Flickr

    ***re reads post and preens cos it looks like Valli knows what Valli is on about***

    Polka, you're far better off without her as a 'friend'. I'm trying to think of the right word - is it displacement or something? Where the person criticising someone else is doing itpurely because they know they're like it themselves and don't want to face up to it. - ahhh, I think it's coming to I think it's 'projection'. If I were you, I'd cut the cord RIGHT NOW and don't even consider phoning or emailing her. Big Hugs hun - you're better than her - really, you are...


    Soapie its def self projection, i do it all the time :D :rotfl: .... i agree cut all ties she is no friend if she can talk to you like that. Seems to me like she has been saving bullets to fire so to speak!

    Hi

    I haven't done any flying today, but i have done loads of stuff for Toddlers. We have the local paper coming on Sunday to take a picture of the poor sad children outside the vandalised shed. Hopefully someone will donate some toys, and it might get some more people joining which will boost the funds. At the moment we are just only scraping by.

    Congratulations to vanilla:j

    Polkadot that cake looks amazing.

    Hugs to everyone it seems like a lot are needed.

    Ooh Soappie - it's like Mission Impossible, your life!

    Well... I have to admit you're right. Fortunately, this time I didn't have to put on the black face paint, the ropes and the Milk Tray advert black turtle neck sweater....neither did I need the silencer, nor the night vision goggles. I was able to go undercover quite easily in my country style green wax jacket (blends in with the grass) my bright white with brown patches dog (must sort out some camo paint for her!) and did a very good impression of Disgusted from Surbiton :rotfl:

    ... tried to PM you but work PC isn't playing nicely... so anyone not utterly fascinated by technical problems look away now!

    Valli - I assume you're running Vista (if so... you have only yourself to blame :rolleyes: )

    Click Start, then Programs, then Accessories.
    Right-click on the command prompt and choose run as administrator.

    Type this command into the command prompt window and hit enter.

    regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\MSCOMM32.OCX

    You should get a message saying the file was registered successfully.

    Try the software again.

    If you receive a module failed to load error, verify the command you entered matches what is listed above.


    Let me know whether it works. I've got a few other places to look for solutions!

    Holly - I will lend you my (mythical) collection of hatpins so you can prod toddlers and make them tearful!

    I have, or had:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: on my PC a copy of the interactive whiteboard programme that I use to prepare resources for work - especially maths
    and for some reason a file is missing it won't open

    I am seriously seriously p***** off. I will have to traipse to work, borrow the B***** CD uninstalll and then reinstall it. Like I haven't anything better to do.

    In particular I use it for Numeracy so that I can take in prepared boards (and do fancy things which keep the kids attention)

    It's all a waste of B***** time. Pointless. :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
    I have no clue why it has gone - all I have changed is that I have defragged.

    Valli is NOT HAPPY
    quote]

    I know it may seem obvious but have you checked the recycle bin and have you run a search for the file?

    if you want to vent that anger Slap me now for being so obvious hun :rotfl: xx
