Okay, now see?

THIS is exactly why it is great to have a community.

So. I searched 'repair software' and got instructions for repairing disk permissions.

I can now open Word docs but not Excel.

One is better than none! Thanks.

In Office 2007, click on the Office button at the top right. For Word, click on Word Options on the bottom, and then on Resources to get to Office Diagnostics. Similarly for Excel, click on Excel options then Resources.

I'm using Office 2011 and can't seem to find Excel options.

I ran the permissions repair again and Word still works, but Excel does not. Argh.

Our wings are not tired.

So I started out the day with 7800+ in my inbox and now I have 7658. It would appear as I get further away from current date it is easier to just delete or file, so this is something.

If I get it under 5000 do I get a bronze star. I know it needs to go away completely, but I don't think I can do it in a day. My crew has offered repeatedly to trim it for me, but really not an efficient method since they would just have to ask me about each email.

Trust my rage

I have over 60K emails in my gmails account. I keep trying to erase them but they won't go away

Ugh, I haven't even looked at my gmail, but that is mostly personal so not as crucial that I clean it out.

Down to 7589!

Go, Laura, you mail processing fool!

I need a final push. I think I have finished all the data cleanup for my year-end report. Now I just have to move into putting the numbers down on paper and getting it filed. I know there will be last minute stuff that crops up. I just wish I was already at this point this morning. But I'm at it now, so I just need to finish already. I hate this stuff.

ARGH NUMBERS WHY? LINE UP, NUMBERS!

Listen numbers, don't make me come out there....

Back to 7612 this morning. I think today I will jump into the middle of the pack instead of the most recent since it is harder to delete current stuff and I get caught up in actually dealing with the content of the email. Maybe below 7000 today?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Liese, I hope you got it figured out.

Laura, sounds like a good plan!! Maybe plow through some old ones, then set a time to deal with new ones?
