Digital Signature
Hi Gord,
Just a follow up to the info you provided. The link was re-directed to:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=gp;
[ln];kberror&style=error
which said that the KB article was not available but that they knew about
it.
It didn't matter because the instructions that you gave were more than
enough for me to be able to delete the unwanted signature.
I had stupidly created two signatures exactly the same because I thought
that the new one would overwrite the old one but I just ended up with two
indistinguishable signatures - thus my quest to delete the non-working one.
Thank again for going to so much trouble.

The selfcert signature can be removed from your computer through the
Windows Management Maintenance Console.
StartRun "mmc"(no quotes)FileAdd/Remove Snap-in.
AddCertificatesCurrent UserAddOK
After the Certificates Snap-in loads expand it and click on
"Personal".
Delete any you don't want from the list.
This KB article is for Windows 2000 server, but I found it works for
Windows
XP.

... I am not sure if this is an
Excel or a Windows question.
Can anyone tell me how you can remove a signature from the signature
dialog box after creating one via SelfCert.exe?
I don't mean remove it from the excel file I mean from the choice of
signature dialog box you are presented with when attaching a signature
to
a spreadsheet.
I guess that's a no then :-(
Out of interest what happened was that at work we had a Windows 2000
server
that the company that does out IT decided to upgrade to 2003, (and
possibly
other things?).
Anyway after they had done whatever they did I found that the digital
signature that I had previously created no longer worked. I created
another
one and was able to re-sign my projects with that one but it has left me
with two signatures - one of which works and one that doesn't and I would
like to get rid of the one that doesn't work. It would be no use asking
this company that did the upgrade because I would just get the answer -
as I
have had before - that they do not do *Applications* only systems,
