Uninstalling and reinstalling IE 6.0
solved the problem of no menu button and no popup calendar. I think that
when Win2000 repaired itself, it replaced some IE6 files with IE5 files (for
example - the “About IE” box said “Internet Explorer 5, but the
“version” line indicated 6). I wonder if this won’t
cure some other problems people are having with scripting errors, etc.

which beta 2.5.8?... the latest is
beta 8. the reason i ask is there is a preference now for how to invoke
the calendar (either by right-click or by double click).
/* Calendar start method.
* 0 = right click
* 1 = double click
* default is 0
*/
calStart=0;
but there was one rev of a 2.5.8
beta that defaulted to double click by mistake.
here is what i would try... sorry if
you already have.
3. back up any preference files for
dqsd.
4. uninstall toolbar via control
panel
5. make sure quick search directory
is removed from program files

I have tried both 2.5.7
and latest 2.5.8 beta and I have tried changing the showbutton in the
localprefs.js file, as well. Nothing I do in either preferences.js or
localprefs.js seems to have an effect on the toolbar button. I have tried
changing other settings, and they seem to work (I can turn off the time
display, for example). I have also noticed the right-click calendar
doesn’t work, either – I get a general context menu, instead.

Which version of DQSD are you
using? If it is one of the 2.5.8 betas, then you should have a localprefs.js.
The settings here will override the settings in preferences.js. So if you
have a localprefs.js check what showbutton= is set to there.

The menu popup button does not
appear on the toolbar, regardless of what I set the “showbutton=”
setting to in the preferences.js file. It was working before I had to
repair my win2000 installation. I had some trouble with my computer
– I have win2000 SP2, got an error (couldn’t find pci.sys), needed
to do a repair windows – did that. Then I started getting scripting
errors for the search bar and it wouldn’t work. Ran through all the
win 2000/ office XP updates from Microsoft to repair anything the windows
repair overwrote, downloaded the latest VM and Java stuff, and that seemed to
fix the scripting errors, but now the “>>” menu button will
not appear. Any suggestions?
