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 Word 2007 webcast
Hi, everybody! Thanks so much to those who attended today's webcast. For those who wanted to but didn't get the chance, the recorded versions should be available on-demand by tomorrow and I'll update this post with that link as soon as it's available. You can also find it here:

Additional upcoming webcasts: (advanced topics)
For those who are interested in more advanced topics like using XML and VBA in the 2007 Office release, you can also check out my webcast series on those topics:
1 - Open XML basics webcast (recorded): Advanced Tips & Tricks: Breaking Into Your Office Open XML Format Documents (Level 300)
2 - VBA basics webcast (recorded): Advanced Tips & Tricks: Using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) Every Day Is Easier Than You Think

If you're new to Office Open XML and did not watch the first webcast in the series above ... I recommend that you check out the recorded version of that webcast (or, if you have my book, check out Chapter 22) before joining the May 8th session - as I'll be assuming that you know everything I covered in that first Open XML webcast when we explore customizing the Ribbon.
