[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1200045, member: 190607"] There's no telling. I do know that because so many Mac users tend to hate Microsoft, and hate having to use Microsoft's applications (they feel forced to use them because they are a de facto business standard), that a surprising number of users are hostile to the concept of doing *any* troubleshooting when they have a problem with Office. I touched on this in another thread here on Mac-Forums. Some Office users are so hostile towards Microsoft and their applications that when I try and help them they keep repeating that Microsoft products are "garbage" and they refuse to follow instructions for troubleshooting and fixing their problems. When I assure them that not everyone is having the same problem, and that it can probably be fixed, they usually become mad at me and say that Microsoft shouldn't have released a product that can "break" so easily! This certainly makes it hard to help! Oy! :o (Personally, I use and love Microsoft Word, and haven't had a moment's problem with it since the days of OS 9. But I use Word 2008, and won't upgrade to 2011 until I hear that all of the bugs have been worked out.) ___________________________________________ Randy B.
