Can’t help you with your MS Word issue. But thanks on your feedback. I’m sure many will respect your honesty.
My MS Word issue was a hit-job. For one session of Word usage and one session alone the rotate function was corrupted. Microsoft crashed Word dozens of times this morning (Microsoft Diagnostics found no reason for it), disappeared what I was working on last night, and will not let me exit that session until I agree to have the records of it not recovered.
I can open a NEW window of Word and everything is fine, including the rotate function. But I’m stuck in an infinite loop on the session in which the rotate function was corrupted, until I agree to relinquish and leave as unrecoverable the records of that session.
I’ve shown the photos I took of what happened on my screen, at my blog, at http://butterdezillion.wordpress.com/2014/02/06/i-did-not-lie-about-microsoft-word/
This was a hit-job, to attack my credibility. I am not a computer expert. In fact I’m a computer moron. But I can take photos and see what’s in front of my eyes and I know for a fact that I did NOT lie or manipulate the images in any way except by cropping images and using the corner arrow to enlarge them.
As soon as somebody gave me a suggestion to find out why my analysis was wrong I did what was suggested and went out of my way to make sure that everybody would know that my conclusion had been wrong. I did what it took to check my methodology and saw that it was sound. That was why I discovered the Microsoft Word corruption, and I reported that right away too. I’ve been paying the price for that all morning - not only with the harrowing stuff with my computer but also because of the cowpie-gnats buzzing around my eyes saying I’m crazy to think that Microsoft would do this, even though I’ve got the photos right there.
As always, if somebody can show me I’m mistaken I’ll change my mind. But with the stuff I’ve seen on my computer and my son’s computer in the last few days, I have no question that this was a hit-job.
