Precisely my point!

 

Once you get involved you are involved for life! Good that your Dad still has the bottle to even attempt a PC though Tim, good on him I say at 75.

I do about three or four a year (which is why MS pointed me in the direction of the Partner Action Pack). The best question I get comes from my 75 year old Dad about once every three or four weeks. He uses Act and Word, and I set up two icons in the quick launch bar for him. Every so often he accidentally knocks the Alt key and when he clicks on the icon it brings up the shortcut properties.

 

Every time he calls me it is if it has never happened before!

 

My brother thinks we should get him on the ‘net – he’s not the one has to spend hours on the phone when it goes wrong. Needless to say I am resisting!

 

Tim.

Building a PC for someone - its like selling your soul to the devil.
