After furious head scratching, JoAnn Paules [MVP] asked:
| Oh geez! I guess I'm scratching my head with a porcupine.
|
| One thousand pardons, dear Milly.
|
|
|| In Millie's posts, *everyone* scratches their heads furiously.
||
||
|| ||| Hmm... I don't know where the need to depict me as in furiously head
||| scraching nor the urge to depict me as living in a world where
||| nothing ever
||| changes and the Chevy Nova is still the epitomy of car design?
|||
||| Just asked how I could get help with what seemd a simple request in
||| enabling
||| the classic office menu system in Office 2007 as a basis for
||| transition and
||| adaptabilty. Unfortunately there appears to be no good answer for
||| this and I
||| must have touched upon an area where there is some sensitivity.
|||
||| Nonetheless I did get my answer .. thanks for the clarification.
