More info?)
I can not find a user manager on the NT machine. I used help, clicked on the
arrow to start user manager and got a pop up "cannot find or run the file or
program "musmgr.exe.
A couple years ago I did this in my office I was thinking i did it a
different way. I could only see the CD drive but that is all i need.
Thank you
