General Software Discussion / Re: create a new entry in the main contextual menu : a new txt file

« Last post by Contro on February 23, 2014, 08:58 AM »

Ok.  Let me get it straight.  You right click an empty space on desktop or folder and the command is in the menu?  Or you right click on a file and the command is there?  It would seem more logical to do the former if making new files.

-MilesAhead (February 23, 2014, 08:49 AM)

Yes, the former Miles.
Create a new txt file just clicking right in an empty space of the desktop or any windows explorer folder .

I prefer to wait to you. Seems an annoying solution by your words. And not for the main contextual menu.

Ok.  I already had Text File in New menu.  Here's what I did to get a template file.

This key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.txt\ShellNew

I added a new string named FileName and for value Template.txt


In the folder C:\Windows\ShellNew I made a file named Template.txt.  The contents is:
This is a text file template.

Now if I right click the desktop or in a folder, select New text document, name it, then double click, it has the text from the template.

One thing I notice I can't do it directly under C:\

It has to be in a folder.  The permissions situation with W8 seems even worse than W7 now.  Every move is hamstrung. I can't even save a file from Editpad directly into C:\Windows\ShellNew.  I have to save it somewhere else, then drag it.  Really asinine.

Anyway, I hope the template text default was what you were interested in.  If not then, Never Mind.

« Last post by Contro on February 21, 2014, 04:48 AM »

open the VBA editor (SHIFT+F11) and copy to the NORMAL document.

if there's no module associated with NORMAL you can copy the module from the existing file, otherwise just copy and paste the code (then SAVE SAVE SAVE)

General Software Discussion / Add a word 2010 function to template

« Last post by Contro on February 20, 2014, 12:59 PM »

How can I add this word function (macro) to the template exactly. I try with no results. I get functioning, but not to save to template for not copy/paste everytime I want to execute the function in a document to extract the hiperlinks.....
For word 2010


This is the code :

Code: Visual Basic [Select]

1. Function doHL()
2.  
3. Dim nd As Document
4. Dim a As Document
5. Dim h As Hyperlink
6. Dim r As Range
7. Application.ScreenUpdating = False
8. Set a = ActiveDocument
9. Set nd = Documents.Add
10. For Each h In a.Hyperlinks
11. Set r = nd.Range
12.  r.Collapse
13.  r.InsertParagraph
14.  r.InsertAfter (h.Address)
15. Next
16. nd.Activate
17. Application.ScreenUpdating = True
18. Application.ScreenRefresh
19. End Function

Save the function to the normal.dotm or corresponding to have for ever available....

Yeapssss.
But i insist in the partial point of view of Mouser - like i see of course- that the really dangerous situation is two residents antivirus suites. Or incompatibles in any case like i have lived a few days ago with avast and outpost security suite agnitum.....
 

Nevertheless i am in my school : donation coder.

EditPad Lite 7 can do the same thing.  I used PsPad for html since it has a previewer that simulates IE.  That way I don't have to bring up IE just to test.  But anyway, PsPad is ok.  A bit quirky though. I've used EditPad Lite for plain text for years.  The font settings can be annoying when you forget how you got there. I don't know why there's no button to permanently set the font on the toolbar.  But other than that it's ok for a freebie.

I have Avast free, but sometimes don't detect the virus like the last time.
I usually apply a weekly scan with malwarebytes antimalware.
And Spybot s&d and superantispyware.
Until the moment works.

So I would like antivirus compatible with Avast, and even with the firewall in team.

-Contro (February 17, 2014, 05:48 PM)

You already have an anti-virus program, how many do you actually want?

Just get a firewall, eg. the free version of Windows 8 Firewall Control.

I have windows 7 only . And xp in virtual machines, but don't use antivirus in the virtual machines.
I would like at least seven desktop second opinions antivirus

I have now
malwarebytes antimalware
superantispyware
