SYMPTOMS

The buttons on the Greetings Workshop taskbar will be inactive if the following conditions are true:
  • The Office Shortcut Bar is positioned at the bottom of the screen (on top of the Windows taskbar).

To resolve this problem, use any of the following methods:
  • Turn off the auto-hide feature on the Office Shortcut Bar.

    -or-
  • Move the Office Shortcut Bar away from the bottom of the screen.

    -or-
  • Close the Office Shortcut Bar.

STATUS

This issue was resolved in Greetings Workshop version 2.0.

MORE INFORMATION
