TO ASK A QUESTION: If you have a question or need help with Office, please feel free to use the 'Click to Contact' link at the bottom of this page. You'll get a form that you can use to email a question to me. (I had been getting a ton of spam when accepting direct emails, so only emails that use this form will get through to me.)
Please be sure to mention the version of Office you are using when you send your question.
I answer all e-mails that I receive via this form, as long as they are polite :)
Since disabling comments on this site, I'm actually hearing from more of you with questions ... so, as it seems people prefer to email rather than comment, I'm going to leave comments disabled. As always, you can ask me any Office-related questions you have. If the question is outside of my expertise, I'll try to direct you to where you can get an answer.
Follow-up on today's webcast (Vista)
Hi, everyone! Thanks to those of you who made the time to attend today's session on some of the cool new Vista tools. As promised, following are additional resources and more information:
Windows Vista Home Page
Windows Vista Community
2007 Office System preview site
Office Beta Community website
Additionally - on the questions of Aero requirements. First -- the verdict is that 64MB of VRAM are acceptable for 1024 x 768 resolution. For 1280 x 1024 resolution, minimum VRAM is 128 MB ... and it grows from there. A good, up-to-date list of Aero requirements are available toward the end of the article at this link in the section called Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor -- the Aero requirements are actually listed as a footnote to the table showing Vista Premium requirements:
Microsoft and PC Manufacturers Make It Easier for Customers to Get Ready for Windows Vista
... on the question of dual monitors. It occurred to me after we got off the line that, since Aero requirements are primarily based upon your computer's capabilities, not the monitor's, it's unlikely that you can have Aero on one monitor but not on the other. See the above-referenced system requirements. However, multiple monitors are not addressed in any of the links I was able to find immediately. I will keep digging on this and get a definitive answer asap. As mentioned, I'm just about to leave on vacation and won't be online while I'm away -- so depending upon when I am able to connect with people ... please be patient for that answer.
Meanwhile ... happy Wednesday everyone!
