Hi all, I am using the paid for, Xat Version 7.00 5040. When installing a screensaver to a computer, is there any way of having a activate button on the desk top, instead of having to set it to come on after no activity? Mick Cant Isle of Wight England mickcant@ |

Thanks Sandy, I have bought "fish tank" screen saver that gave the option to have a button on the desk top, instead, and having just made a screen saver of local photos going back a 100 years would like to be able to have it on at times, I also normally have my system set to none, as I always forget to turn it of when doing something that they can upset, Mick.
