    I own a small company and hired a new employee 5 days ago. Today I left for an appointment and when I came back I noticed about 50 sheets of paper had been printed and my Quickbooks was not where I left it. Do I have a employee who just copied all my financial data & cutomer list ??? I would like to know if I can discover what was printed while I was gone. Win 98se Thanks JT

    Sorry I can't help you out per "what" reports / information was printed out by Quickbooks.
    I would suggest contacting your lawyer. Look into a Employee Confidentiality form be drafted, retroactive to hire date. Have the employee sign it first thing tomorrow morning. This will provide a legal tool, but you would still require proof of any wrong doing.
    In the mean time, does the employee's responsibilities include the use of Quickbooks. If not, take her permission away via w98 user account .. and password protect your user account. I can also steer you to a program that can password lock any .exe file, works very well.

    jpls--Try Start|Documents. That should show the last 15 or so documents that were opened.
    Though perhaps not pertinent. To where did Quickbooks move?

    No, It doesn't show pages opened/printed within quickbooks.

    Hit the F3 key, and do a search for files accessed at the time you were out.

    jpls--
    If you feel that list covers the time while you were gone, then I would suggest that files you are concerned about were not accessed. (Whether they were were printed would not be shown). Unfortunately, it is easy to delete accessed files from that list if a person knows how.
    Not sure I understand that. (I do not run Quickbooks.) Do you mean you left QB on the screen before you left and then found some other folder/site on the screen when you returned? That could mean that someone just used the PC. (You could see what pages were accessed in between from History.)
    Perhaps you should lock your Quickbooks folder?

    Playing around with www.google.com I also came up with this

    I have not used this program and have no idea whether this can provide info on the past.
