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!

Can I stop the Configuring Office progress bar when switching between Office 2003 and 2007?

Asked by DanKoster in Microsoft Office Suite, Microsoft Access Database

Tags: office, microsoft, enterprise, configures

I have both Office 2003 and Office 2007 installed on Windows Vista.  I'm really only keeping 2003 around for Access.  

My problem is that every time I switch between the two versions of Access, it triggers an install process (I guess to take over file associations and who knows what else).  2003 Says "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003". 2007 says "Configuring Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007".  The progress bar for 2007 is particularly slow (the 2003 one I can live with).  

Anyway to stop this and just force the file association to stay with 2007 (or 2003, I don't care which one really)?  

Thanks!
