Hi Jim. Have you considered creating another user account for your partner? You can do this under user accounts in the control panel. Then she'll have her own account and can install her own programs, customised the way she wants them. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jim Denton To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, May 31, 2009 11:31 AM Subject: [access-uk] scanning products Hi all, I share the pc with my other half. I have K1000 but my partner wants to use the scanner to coppy and print maps and the like. Can any one reccomend software that will not mess up K1000. Many thanks Jim
