Capital PC User Group
Microsoft Office SIG
Home Page
This sub-group within CPCUG was in operation for about 10 years, until
June 2008. CPCUG would like to continue this, but a volunteer co-ordinator
and location are needed. If you can help provide either aspect, E-mail me,
using the link at the bottom of this page.

- Background for questions:
- Asking almost anything means you'll be asked for background on
your hardware, Operating System, Office version, etc.
- Help the person trying to
help you.
- Hints and Kinks:
- Using Microsoft help resources. From Frank Camp, Jan 06.
- Updating your Microsoft OS & App Files. From Frank Camp, Mar 06.
- Hard drives DO crash. Prepare
before your irreplaceable information disappears.
- Changing web page size. Using
View/Text within Microsoft Internet Explorer(MSIE) to change
text size doesn't work with all types of web pages. A bookmarklet
will change the size of any page with most web browsers,
including MSIE.
-
Renaming files en_masse.
- Creating transparent text.
MS Word was used to create a file that contains the word "office."
Note that details of the background can be seen, which only
happens with a transparent image file.
