Hi all,
Nancy, this is one of the times when MSWord is being overly helpful. It's like
somebody who grabs you and pushes you across the street. Tell it no, when it
asks you if you want to convert the file. Just be firm, no nonsense, and very
clear with Word. Tell it no. You are in control, not it. Speak firmly.
Don't yell, don't pound your keyboard, but speak firmly!
Some day, I am going to go out to that place in Washington State and tell the
creators of Word to quit trying to run a computer user's life. <grrrrr> If it
isn't the office assistant popping up and saying in that overly solicitous
voice, "You're writing a letter, do you want help?" It's trying to put bullets
where you don't want 'em, numbering lists and generally causing havoc. Just
speak firmly and tell it no.
Ann P.
