How to post .doc files?

nowhere-man · #1 February 10th, 2006

Hi Clancy and/or Mods,
Is there a way to post Word docs using "Manage attachments" without converting to pdf?
If you have already seen some of my "jokes" though, you may choose to ignore this question.

Thank you, and regards
Geoff

Geoff,

I guess I could set that up, but the problem is that not everyone can open a file in .doc format. I personally loath opening Word just to read something... but maybe that's just me. If majority here think it's a good idea, I can change it so that it's a file type that can be uploaded.

Can you not just copy from the .doc file and past it straight into the post area instead?

Thanks, I'll try that.

Thanks Clancy, it worked. I thought I had tried that some time ago unsuccessfully, but I must have made a mistake somewhere along the way. And oh boy! have I made some mistakes..............

Thanks again
