25, 2010 - 8:00 p.m. Central We’ve all lived through or at least seen someone else suffer through it. Your document just stops behaving rationally. Maybe your tables fail. Maybe your formatting won’t stay applied, or maybe your document won’t open at all. Whatever specific disaster you encounter, the symptom is the same: your document is just plain acting weird. In Word: Avoiding Disaster we will discuss document “corruption” and how it can be avoided. By building a document following a few simple guidelines we can greatly reduce the possibility of last minute disasters. back to topthe NALS FoundationThink Big!
