Microsoft Word/Post Question

Ask Richard Rost a Question about Microsoft Word

Important:

Please read the following and "Instructions from the Expert" carefully before you post the question:

  • Please don't set your question to private unless it will personally identify you. The public questions will get high priority to be answered and can benefit more users. Don't put your personal information in the question.

  • After you submit your question, we'll send you an email as a receipt. You will be notified when the answer is ready. Please make sure your email server does not block or filter out emails from allexperts.com.

  • AllExperts is a 100% free site. Our experts spend lots of time to answer your questions. We ask only that you thank and rate the volunteer's answer upon your return.

Instructions from the Expert:

- NO private questions
- NO questions about Word VBA or Macros
- NO homework questions
- Do not ask to send me your document to look at
- Be specific and direct
- ONE question per day, per person please
- Followups should be about the initial question, NOT a new question
- IMPORTANT: Specify which version of Word you have, or I'll assume 2007
- I do not have a Mac, so please no Office 2008 questions

If you ask me a specific question, I'll try to give you a specific answer. If you ask me something vague, like "how do I perform a mail merge?" then all I'm going to do is point you in the direction of a good tutorial.

If you're having a problem with Word, or a specific document, chances are I won't be able to diagnose the problem for you! I'm here to answer questions concerning HOW to do things in Word... not fix problems with your system or documents that are broken.

I get a LOT of questions asked of me, and I want to be able to help everyone, but I can't spend half an hour answering each question. So please, keep your questions brief, and expect a short BUT SWEET answer! :)

I sometimes get 20 or 30 questions a DAY, so it can take me anywhere from a few days to a week to get back to you. If you need an URGENT answer FASTER, visit my web site at http://www.599cd.com/TechHelp/AllExperts

Thank you.
