Sarah, you truly are demented. Seek assistance straight away.

Mary is indeed a Publisher MVP. She also participates in our Publisher MVP online
conference calls with the Publisher developers in Redmond. In addition, Mary
participated in getting some of the new features added to the upcoming Publisher 12
release. She also puts efforts into our www.publishermvps.com website, as well as
helps with funding the site.

Finally, Mary has help hundreds if not thousands of people here in the newsgroups.
All you have done is troll, cause trouble, insult, use acronyms for profanities,
ridicule and hurt other people.

Get a life, get out of here, and give it a break. Man, you are really ****ing me
off.

What does this have to do with Publisher?



You know, Mary, that's what I think about most of your posts. You're not even
a Publisher MVP - what's your 'field'? Oh yes - clipart! Looks like MS felt
sorry for you for some bizarre reason and felt they had to create a category
just for you. I mean clipart, for Hades sake, what the hell kind of a topic
is that? Publisher 2003 doesn't even *have* any clipart - it's all online and
if it's not accessible then it's a server issue. It's a non-award really....

I don't post here that often, as there are wonderful people such as Mary,
that unlike you, are consistently and quickly helpful to both newbies and
experienced users of Publisher and newsgroups. Mary constantly amazes me
with her expertise and ability to find and provide answers and links to even
the most obscure information, templates, wordart, etc., that is almost
always exactly what the OP has requested. Her kindness, empathy, patience
and dedication to helping here is unparalleled, though there are others that
also deserve praise. I can see why you attack her, as she is the antithesis
of you.

I would kill file you, but someone has to help protect the innocent from
your alienating, demeaning bile. What I don't understand is how you can
continue to spread this negativity throughout many newsgroups while you
assert to subscribe to pagan beliefs. Once again, this is in direct contrast
to pagan principles, and if you are getting back threefold what you project,
you must live a miserable existence. I pity you and hope you find some peace
and happiness somehow, somewhere....just not here.

Okay, so I know that I am running a dinosaur, and unfortunately, I am not in
a position to get a new one at this point. So, if all the bickering and name
calling is over.......does anyone have a solution for me? I don't even know
what to look for as far as what my video driver is called. I would love to
have someone help me by phone if possible. But I don't want to open a can of
worms by posting my phone number or asking someone to post theirs. How do I
go about this? And I do thank you all for your helpfulness (most of you....)

No one is going to help you by phone. Like I said, contact me offline and
I'll try to help you via e-mail.

Thanks. I went there and followed the instructions to update the driver. It
ultimately told me that I have the best driver. I am pretty sure that the
problem is something in "office", and also my video card......and I will just
have to limp along until I can upgrade to a new computer. Hopefully in the
near future. I do appreciate all your help. I have learned a great deal,
and I don't feel like as much of a dummy as I was before.

Windows will always tell you have the best driver. You obviously don't. Did you go to
the web site suggested and look around for a newer driver?

You know what is NO ACCIDENT?
Your manner and tone which we all know most people despise. Tell me, have
you gotten lots of kudos for your return or has it been the opposite? What
does that tell you, that it's the world gone wrong and not you?
Get a clue moron.

I did go to the website, but it said that the information applied to newer
versions of office. I didn't know if it would work for office 2000. And I
also followed your outlined instructions to find out what the driver is that
I have. It is 3dfx Voodoo3. So what should I do next?
