How many of you had this drug problem?
See the attachment.

Hammer and others interested in Hammer's attachment.

The forum software does not recognize .doc or .docx files. Hammer's attachment is a .docx.

There is a work-around:
Save Hammer's attachment to your desktop. If you have WORD 2007 or later you can open it from your desktop. If you have an earlier version of WORD, you will have to convert the file from .docx to .doc.

To Convert:
Go to http://www.doc.investintech.com/ and scroll down to the 2-step conversion process. Save the file wherever you want it and click to open.

Thank you Microsoft for creating all this extra work for those who spent their hard-earned money for earlier versions of WORD.

I don't know if the new software can handle .doc and .docx extensions. If so, Nigel can address that.

Hi,
if you have older Word versions docx to doc easy to solve by Microsoft's addon copability pack.

Cheers

Thank You GJ...
I was not aware of the MS Comapibility Pack.

Before jumping the above hoops just to view the attachment, can someone provide more info about what this 'drug' topic attachment is about?

I had no problem in downloading the file from the forum and then simply unzipping it. From there all you had to do was open the file with whatever wordprocessor you have.

Still not sure what the topic is about. Cryptic thread titles and attachments you have to download before you have ANY idea what the topic is about is hardly good netiquette.

I won't be downloading this until the OP clues us in to what he wants us to read. Sorry.

Diki @ Scott. It's a graphic (inserted into a Word document) of an article written by a couple as an inspirational message. The 'drug problem' was being 'drug' to church every Sunday and drug to the woodshed (by the ear) when you had misbehaved. Telling you what it's about in advance spoils the 'cuteness' factor but you two insisted. It'll go over well with the older generation, the younger generation, not so much.

The title alone made me loose interest in wanting to read it. I guessed it was a joke, but working with troubled teens makes it seem less humorous as a topic for me. It's like terrorists jokes ... way too soon, and inappropriate in my book.

maybe we'll tell you when you'll write a clear topic instead of your little conundrums...people don't have time and / or energy to help you clarify what you didn't clarify.

PS. I have plenty of stuff to download....I guess I can do without an attachement.
