I also can't put both programs on one computer - hubby tried that and it required reformatting the hard drive and purchasing software to uncorrupt all my files. <BR/><BR/>GROOVY: I've never used a Mac, so unfortunately I don't know if Pages uses a different approach to Word. I'm guessing it does. A quick browse of the Apple forums reveals a number of disgruntled users trying to turn AutoCorrect off on various programs.Elle Carter Nealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02266309723919011181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704943052235281766.post-45727844571358749222008-10-08T14:25:00.000-06:002008-10-08T14:25:00.000-06:00Of course, none of that applies to my Mac...Are th...Of course, none of that applies to my Mac...Are there any guidelines for formatting in Pages 2.0.2?groovyoldladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07971936982658984234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704943052235281766.post-46817947387748026692008-10-07T20:06:00.000-06:002008-10-07T20:06:00.000-06:00This is one of the most useful things I've read in...This is one of the most useful things I've read in ages.

I'm in the process of upgrading the e-book(s) and offering a print option. I'm going to be moving away from it being about Word specifically and more towards techniques to make it easier to use any word processing program for writing and making notes.Elle Carter Nealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02266309723919011181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704943052235281766.post-13976324281509275022008-10-06T09:54:00.000-06:002008-10-06T09:54:00.000-06:00E. - You're still teaching your online MS Word cou...E. - You're still teaching your online MS Word course, right? I took it a few years ago, and it was awesome... overwhelming, but awesome. LOL. If you're getting a class together, Twitter would be the place to promote that. <BR/><BR/>So glad to be getting these tips from you again! Word has so many features, if you can remember to use them.<BR/><BR/>Dani<BR/>http://twitter.com/blogbooktoursDanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14471919576687777886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704943052235281766.post-81970028455415096822008-10-06T07:44:00.000-06:002008-10-06T07:44:00.000-06:00Very interesting!
