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.
I just misunderstood the question!
Today is the Microsoft launch event in midtown Manhattan for Office, Vista, and Exchange... it was a Steve Ballmer keynote - and that's always fun. But, this post isn't just to say that I enjoy watching the energy of MSFT's always enthusiastic CEO ...
...I bolted up to midtown for the event as early as I could ... and, having gotten up this morning a bit later than planned, didn't even stop for coffee (which turned out to be my big mistake)...
At one point in his talk, Steve asked the large assembly for a show of hands of who had used the 2007 release during the beta. So, along with many people, I raised my hand. Then, he asked who of those people would want to go back. Now, keep in mind that I was suffering from a caffeine-deficiency. I thought he was asking who would want to go back to the 2007 release again now that the beta is over. So, I raised my hand. Of course, all the other well-caffeinated folks in the audience knew that he was asking who would want to go back to an earlier version after trying the 2007 release. So, I was the only person with my hand raised.
I'm sorry Steve, truly I am. I love the Ribbon. I dream of the Office Open XML Formats. I never want to be without SmartArt. I just misunderstood the question.
Please ask me again ... after a post-keynote trip to Starbucks, I'm well caffeinated and can now answer appropriately ... :)
Happy Tuesday everybody!
