Screensaver

[Dave]

I used to use the screen saver link in Office XP but when
I upgraded to Office 2003 I can't seem to find the link
anymore.

1) Does Office 2003 have a screen saver link?
2) Is there another link I can use to start a screen
saver that I chose in Display Properties -> screensaver?

Hi Dave,

The MS Office Shortcut Bar that included a screen saver icon was discontinued.
You can do a custom install of your older version of Office and choose that feature only or you can use one of a number of third
party toolbars that act similarly.

You can create a shortcut icon of your own for your desktop or for the Windows Quicklaunch bar using methods such as the one in this
article
http://www.personal-computer-tutor.com/screensaver.htm
basically you're using Start=Find/Search to locate the .SCR files and
create a shortcut (rightclick on the .SCR file of choice) to the screensaver.

or this older MS method

Try this shortcut target:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\osa.exe -s

What is the Osa.exe file?
