Try "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server
extensions\60\BIN\STSADM.exe" -o setproperty -pn days-to-show-new-icon -pv 0

I failed to mention that I am using moss not sps..
I tried that stsadm command in the 12/bin directory.
I got an operation completed succesfully, but it didn't remove the new tags..

You might look at www.codeplex.com/features

There is a new feature that allows you to show/hide individual menu
items on the list/library standard toolbar

Sorry. I actually read the *entire* email and you can set the time to 0
days as someone already said using stsadm.exe

I think you may need to actually do an IISreset for this change to be
picked up.

I just tried this myself and go this error:
-----------------------------------

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server
extensions\12\BIN>stsa

dm.exe -o setproperty -pn days-to-show-new-icon -pv 1 -url
http://sharepoint.mow

er.com

Specified argument was out of the range of valid values.

Parameter name: Number of weekly notifications. This value must be >= 4
and <=

24

--------------------------------------------

I tried the command again and got this error message:

The server administration programs and the Windows SharePoint Services Web appli

cations on this Web server are not compatible. Ensure that the administration p

rogram is the same version as the Web application.

What is that about?

I logged in as the superuser for this MOSS implementation.

Does that stsadm command work in MOSS?
Is there an updated one for MOSS?

It appears your Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 service pack level and
SharePoint Server 2007 service pack levels are not the same.

That is interesting considering that they were installed at the same time..and
no sp has been installed..at least not to my knowledge..

I saw another problem with the same error recently, let me see if
I can find out what was the root cause.

The command didn't work for me....running SPS, no MOSS.
