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.
Create custom themes and design great documents ... new content
Hi, everyone! Just a quick note to let you know about a new article and an upcoming webcast ...
The article is a walkthrough of sorts for Office 2007 document themes (can apply to Office 2008 as well) - showing how to create custom themes from scratch using a combination of PowerPoint and the Open XML Formats (along with the very cool Open XML Theme Builder tool created by members of the Office 2007 product team, which is a wonderful timesaver!)
Here's a link to the article, which is available now: Creating Document Themes with the Office Open XML Formats
The upcoming webcast is a session on effective document design using Office 2007. It's a level 200 (intermediate level) webcast that will focus primarily on good document and presentation design for Word and PowerPoint. The webcast is scheduled for Tuesday, October 14th, at 9am Pacific, 12p Eastern, 5p UK time (and so on and so forth :) As with all Office System webcasts, it's free and open to anyone.
Here's the registration link: Microsoft Office System Webcast: Tips and Tricks: Design Your Documents for Maximum Impact (Level 200)
Note: If you haven't attended a Web cast or other LiveMeeting session recently, login a bit early on the day of the event in case you need to update your version of LIveMeeting. It's free - but it may take a few minutes.
Look forward to seeing you there ... meanwhile ...
Happy Wednesday everyone!
