Single spaced template for new doc on Word
The newest update to Office 365 doesn't have a template for a single spaced document. When you click on New Doc, you get a template with double spacing, trying to select single spacing doesn't work. There used to be an optional template for single spaced doc's, but now it's no longer available. Maybe I'm missing something, but I need to have the use of single spacing in my documents and I hate to have to use Google docs inorder to get the right template. Thanks for the help Ken Miller I just came up with the answer to my own question. I have been using the web version of Office and didn't realize. What a dummy, this happened after I did the recent update to Version 2004 in October. So, I installed the app on my laptop and don't you know I now have a choice of single spaced doc's as a template. Thanks to all who tried to help me with lots of suggestions. Ken
Microsoft’ priorities –cosmetic change or neglecting faults
There used to be a car manufacturer in the UK called British Leyland, which was widely alleged to leave the reliability testing of new models to those customers who were foolish enough to buy them. Needless to say, its cars were full of faults and, unsurprisingly, the company went out of business. Microsoft seems to be heading down the same road. The latest Windows 10 Features Update 2004 apparently offers 16 new features. But it has also caused major problems for Windows users. These have been known since at least May, and many are unresolved, but this Update is still not labelled as a Beta version and users are being encouraged to take the Update without any warning that it is still full of problems. In my case, it has totally f**ked up my system. I cannot get any sound out of my audio system (Realtek in a Dell XPS 8930), and there is nothing in the troubleshooter, the support system or community forum which provides any clear and explicit guidance about how to resolve this. This approach to user support seems to typify Microsoft’s casual attitude to users of its systems. When Edge was introduced, it was an alleged improvement on Internet Explorer. It claimed to have many new features, but it also omitted some useful ones that had been part of IE, making some processes such as downloading and saving a copy of a pdf more complicated and time-consuming for users. And its handling of Favourites was and remains a disaster. What can we expect from the promised new Chromium-based version? Another shit-show? Office is suffering from the same pattern - producing continual unnecessary superficial cosmetic changes while reported faults are ignored. If the managers can't get the priorities right, and/or the programmers can’t cope with the complexity of what they are being asked to produce, isn’t it time for some substantial changes in the company’s personnel?

Excel Mobile Keyboards & Laughing @ Myself
It's good to be able to laugh at oneself every once in a while. Here's one on me, Enjoy! Ok, so this may be a little off of the beaten path, but it goes to show how we all can miss something so simple. I won't bother giving you the back story, but I've been working on a spreadsheet for a couple and for the life of me couldn't figure out why it wouldn't work on my Android Microsoft 365, when it worked on my Laptop Microsoft 365, as well as my Kindle Fire Microsoft 365. The formula included in part (if>0,) what was happening was that when I entered a partial # like .50 on either my Fire or Laptop the formula worked just fine, but when I entered it on my Android phone, nope! returned the good 'ole #VALUE error. I was updating the spreadsheet this morning on the mobile, and for some reason or another everything was working as it should? WTH! It was then that I looked and noticed that I was using the numerical keyboard! I switched to the qwerty board, and the problem came back. The reason was right before my coke bottle covered eyes, all this time. What I had been forgetting was the when I tapped the period on the qwerty board it inserted a space before the number, so in essence I was entering . 76 instead of .76 How dumb can I be! Now I can give it them
Bad Computer / Bad Boy Part II
In this episode!.. I started this trek because not only because the computer wasn't acting the way it had been, and because certain things, like the Microsoft Printer weren't working at all. Ok, so I went a little nuclear and bombed the entire system! Truthfully I hadn't been that nervous in a while. The last time I decided to do that I took it to my near by Microsoft store at the Chandler Fashion Center Mall, and let them deal with it. Not this time!. I reset the PC, and didn't care about personal files as everything was on OneDrive and an External Drive anyway. The reinstallation of Microsoft 365 went fairly well, with a few exceptions that I'm still clearing up. There were a few other glitches, but again nothing really unsurmountable. The Microsoft Printer came back of course, and here is where I learned something new, or for the first time noticed something. For many years when I've gotten an email that I need to keep, I simply click on Send to OneNote and choose the appropriate folder and away it goes. A real time saver. What I noticed in the Microsoft Printer was that I could print to OneNote for Windows 10, and to Windows 10 Desktop! You talk about time savers! That at least to me is huge! I use Microsoft 365 OneNote Desktop , Microsoft Outlook 365 Desktop, and Microsoft Excel 365 Desktop, and the Microsoft Printer on a daily basis. How I didn't know that that existed in the printer is embarrassing. If you haven't played with it you really should check it, or if you already know about, please humor me and don't make too much fun of me for missing something like that ... LOL
