You guys are scaring me! I'm going to need a new computer shortly and was thinking of going to Windows 7 (did that take the place of Vista?) and the new version of Office, although I use WordPerfect primarily. But I need Office cuz most clients and other offices use it. I have XP, 2003 Office, and can't even remember what version of WordPerfect I have.

I've been on Win7 for the last year...I like it. It's an upgrade from Win2000.

Haven't used the 'Office Starter' Excel yet. I could get around pretty well creating graphs and stuff like that.
Word Starter sucks donkeys...everything is so weird.
Hate new MS Paint, I'm a big PhotoShop fan...and I can't do all the cool stuff I used to do in earlier versions of Paint. :x
Love the 'Snipping Tool'...easier than screen shots.

Windows 8 is supposed to be released soon...

81: was just going over a bunch of things with the boss and thought you'd find some humor in some of the things that were said:

"anyone who merges cell's should be shot"

"not sure how they are able to tell anything by looking at all of that data, don't know why they wouldn't pivot it to clean up the view. morons"

"better to have pivoted and lost than to never have pivoted at all"

StillHere

pivot tables :lolno:

and how about in word trying to get rid of that extra page at the end that prints blank every single time!

remember the good ol' days when you could just backspace or delete until it disappeared...oh if only

nerds, aren't we? :ugeek:

i've never heard a negative about merged cells...when formatting a report, thy make it easy to get everything lined up all nice and neat...

and i still say, pivot tables are for rookies. give me sumif any and every day of the week

click in the blank page (so you see your cursor), right click, then delete (or just hit the 'delete' key)...the page will go away. (it prints because you probably hit 'space bar' in the page, and Word considers 'space' as a character/printed letter.)

have you tried to 'highlight' the blank page? like you're highlighting text for 'cut and paste'.
sometimes there is a wayward 'margin' that got bumped down.
OR you could adjust your 'margins' in the toolbar...that usually makes it go away.

you are using Win7...yes/no?

rick1zoo2

where's that danged "any" key?!?
