Microsoft Word help!!!

Open word, and go to the FILE wording at the top, and look at the last document he opened, he should be able to get to it there.

DD

 

did he move it after he saved it and is trying to open it from the file menu?

 

In word, try opening the document by selecting the word "File" at the top and a list of documents should appear at the bottom of the scroll window.

One of those should be the doc he was using.

DD

 

Do a search for the document name, and open it that way.

DD

 

Only if he is opening it from Word. Like DaDa mentioned, from the file menu. If he saved the file and then moved the icon into a new folder, Word won't know he moved it. If you have already tried doubleclicking the actual icon and you are getting that message then I think I'm out of ideas.

 

Ok, only thing I can come up with...try right clicking the icon and choose to open it with word pad or internet explorer. I know that works on my computer. I'm not sure what it will mean if it doesn't work for you, but its an idea.

 

Sorry I couldn't help more. Good luck.

 

What? Are you saying he put it in a folder called whatever.txt? If you're not, why did he save a Word file as a .txt instead of a .doc? You could try changing the .txt to a .doc if he made the actual document a .txt.

 

Now we need a Powerpoint thread and an Access thread. Maybe throw some VBScript and Perl out there. Maybe I could teach some of you fools Windows Installer and SMS, that would be cool.

 

Don't DOUBLE CLICK THE FILE. Open Word. Find the file on a separate window (use the "Find Files..." feature).

Drag it to the WordPad window's top bar (where the WordPad title is)

Drop it.

Cut the text. Close WordPad. Say "no" when it asks you to save the file.

Paste it into a new document in Word.

Save it on the desktop under a new name.

Voilá. New document. Keep the other file.

var can_you = confirm("Can You Read This?");
if (can_you)
document.writeln("Hooray!\nYou Can Read JavaScript!");
else
document.go(-1);

alert('Thanks!');

------------------
use CGI;
$my_form = new CGI;
$my_answer = $my_form->param('answer_field');

print "Content-type: text/html \n\n";

if ($my_answer eq 'YES') {
print "Hooray! You know PERL!";
}
else {
print "What were you thinking?\n<BR>Can you understand this?";}
exit(0);
-----------------

dim form_answer, form_field

form_field = request.form("answer").value

response.write("Hi.");
IF (form_field = "YES") THEN
response.write("Hooray! You know some ASP.<BR>Congratulations!")
END IF

 

Ha, geek humor is too funny.

 

------------------
var members = new Array("SwoLy-D","Master Baiter");
var is_geek = new Array(0);

for (i=0;i < geeks.length ; i++) {
if (members == "geek")
is_geek = members;
else
document.writeln(members + " is not a geek");
}
------------------
it takes one++ to know() one
