To allow control of a shared program
- In the Sharing dialog box, click Allow Control.
- In the main NetMeeting window, right-click the name of a person you want to work in the program, and then click Grant Control.
Notes
- If Allow Control appears dimmed, you have not shared a program. You must share a program or your desktop before you can allow control.
- You can click Allow Control at any time during the meeting. When you click it, the button name changes to Prevent Control. If you click Prevent Control, other participants cannot work in the shared program until you click Allow Control again.
- When a participant requests control, NetMeeting displays a message asking your permission. If you want to grant permission automatically, in the Sharing dialog box, select the Automatically accept requests for control check box.
- If you do not want anyone other than the person who has control currently to take control, select the Do not disturb with requests for control right now check box.
- To take back control of the program once you have shared it, click anywhere on your desktop. Only one person can control a program at a time.
