Word. A new example of its absurdity.

I couldn't number my pages. Just told me it couldn't or wouldn't communicate with the net to get numbers. FFS! All I want is 1 2 3 4 5 etc. It's got ten-million fonts I don't want, why no numbers.


A nice bloke on a word forum answered another poor soul's cry for help. I followed an obscure path from C drive ( Office is installed on D drive - so why do they ask if they're going to put stuff on a drive you don't want it on?)

Anyway, C Users Rivetss App Data Roaming Microsoft Documents and building blocks 1033 14 AND THERE THEY JOLLY WELL ARE. building blocks.dotx files. AND i HAVE TO KILL THEM.

It made some more and now I can number my pages. I'd never have done it without this bloke's help.


Tooooooooooo Silly.
