Wonderful blog! I found it while browsing on Yahoo News.
Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there!
Thank you
I am trying to add a streets & trips balloon hyperlink to activate a wma with Windows XP. I used the same procedure in windows 8 and it worked. I copied it to a jump drive and again it worked in Windows 8. I then transferred the jump drive to my XP computer and it did not work. I double checked everything but it still does not work.
Any suggestions? Is there something about XP that won’t allow a wma file to open via a hyperlink.
This is the protocol I used ” file:F:\Documents\Apoi\Arizona\CasaGrande\Casa%20Grande.wma”
There are all kinds of push pins. You can click on a push pin and change it any time.
You would need to have each pin designate a product befor you get stared so you know what you are doing.
Good luck, I think it is a good idea.
