Can one get a report from Word 2003 docs' "PropertIes?"
I'd like to rapidly extract the "Total editing time" property from a set of Word docs for time and billing purposes. Does anyone know of a product—or method—that will do that? Currently, to compile and tally editing time for many docs, one has to open each doc, get into File, PropertIes, Statistics and type the editing time in a separate doc. Slow. (Cannot even copy it, so Clipboard...

Printer asks to check cartridge but then what?

Transpose 2 characters, as in "prefect" to "perfect"
I'm using Word 2007, but this question would apply to most versions of the software. In the early days, there was a simple keyboard shortcut (no cumbersome macro, Vbase language, etc.) to transpose two mis-typed letters. For instance, if one typed "prefect" instead of "perfect" (a case in which a spell-check will not help), one could put the cursor between the R and the E and hit s...

Improving Word 2007
Are there any plans to revise, update, and improve Word 2007? I realize that Microsoft put a great deal of time and effort into the product. Unfortunately, the Office 2007 product suffers from numerous flaws and problems in organization of the user interface. In speaking with my colleagues in the education field, their verdict has been nearly unanimous, don't upgrade to Office 2007. ...
