The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Problems opening and closing word documents in Citrix Metaframe XP

Asked by proltdman in Microsoft Office Suite

Tags: citrix, word, file, problem

I have a few users that use citrix in a remote office or at home and they are experiencing problems when opening word documents which are saved on our file storage server or opened through our oracle based database program.

When they double click on the word document it comes up with a box that says [Word cannot open the Existing"♦ ] Exactly how it is in the brackets. When you click the okay button the word document opens properly and you can do everything normally.

When you go to close the document after viewing it it comes up with another box saying [ The file Normal already exists. Do you want to replace the existing file?] Again exactly how it appears in the brackets. With the Yes , No and  cancel buttons underneath the message. When you click no it opens the save to a location window and you can choose to save the file somewhere else. This shouldn't be happening at all and the file has not been edited so no need to be saving it. You then click cancel and the previous messages reappears  [ The file Normal already exists. Do you want to replace the existing file?] you then click cancel and the word document closes. This is only happening to 3 of the users so far and have had no other complaints from the other 16 users.

Can anyone help on this or has anyone experienced the same problem? Thanks in advance.
