I have run into a problem involving Microsoft Document Imaging and Microsoft Document Scanning under Microsoft Office Tools on the Program Menu. Can anyone tell me if you scan a file using the Microsoft Document Scanning what options you have when saving the file? I seem only to have one save option which is called Tagged Image File (.tif) which I can only open using Document Imaging. I am unable to open the tif file (created as above) using Microsoft Photo Editor.

Once again I am forced to have my OS reloaded. I have an Administrator problem that I do not want to even address after literally 4 days on the phone with MS technical support's language barrier. My question is to all the FR tech folks who know XP-Pro, sharing and user rights. My equipment: (Originally Dell 8200 w/pentium 4 1.8mhz) USB1.1 upgraded to High-Speed USB2 PCI Card (4 port) 80G hard drive (C) additional 80G internal drive petitioned (D & E). RAM: 1.25GB memory. OS is Windows XP-Professional with SP2 XP Office Professional 2002 Question #1 Does it make sense...
