Mr. Graham could perhaps apologize to Mr. Ritter197 for his reply, which was
condescending and sarcastic. Mr. Ritter197 was correct that the response
was unhelpful. The fact that there was a backhanded answer to his question
does not negate the fact that it was preceded by the language that he
correctly saw as a reprimand.

Mr. Ritter197 stated his issue in a mere 57 words and, like many who seek
help in this forum, he was somewhere along the spectrum of frustration. It
would have cost nothing to have supplied the answer without comment. And
this ever-lenthening thread could have been truncated after response #2.

Not to mention the fact that Mr. Ritter197 made a sincere, polite, and
unqualified apology to Mr. Graham whose response was an ungracious, "Noted."

Here's a suggested response for Mr. Graham, "It was gracious of you to
apologize, despite my own sarcasm and condescension, and I owe you a proper
acknowledgement of your apology, which I hope this is."

What question? Ritter197 did not ask a question. He posted a rant. Moreover,
it was irrelevant to Word because the address book is the province of
Outlook, as both JR and Graham pointed out, suggesting that he post a
question in an Outlook NG. Given that there was no question in the first
place and that Ritter197's post was belligerent and abusive, it was actually
rather gracious of Graham to provide an answer at all.

Here's something you could add at the end of your rant:

"Even if I don't know the meaning of 'belligerent' or 'abusive,' I do
recognize that Mr. Ritter197 made a very decent apology and, on that basis
alone, Mr. Mayor should have been more gracious in acknowledging that.
It's
not often in the world that people are so pleasant and well mannered as to
apologize in a straightforward manner for their errors."

What question? Ritter197 did not ask a question. He posted a rant.
Moreover,
it was irrelevant to Word because the address book is the province of
Outlook, as both JR and Graham pointed out, suggesting that he post a
question in an Outlook NG. Given that there was no question in the first
place and that Ritter197's post was belligerent and abusive, it was
actually
rather gracious of Graham to provide an answer at all.

Mr. Graham could perhaps apologize to Mr. Ritter197 for his reply,
which
was
condescending and sarcastic. Mr. Ritter197 was correct that the
response
was unhelpful. The fact that there was a backhanded answer to his
question
does not negate the fact that it was preceded by the language that he
correctly saw as a reprimand.

Mr. Ritter197 stated his issue in a mere 57 words and, like many who
seek
help in this forum, he was somewhere along the spectrum of frustration.
It
would have cost nothing to have supplied the answer without comment.
And
this ever-lenthening thread could have been truncated after response
#2.

Not to mention the fact that Mr. Ritter197 made a sincere, polite, and
unqualified apology to Mr. Graham whose response was an ungracious,
"Noted."

Here's a suggested response for Mr. Graham, "It was gracious of you to
apologize, despite my own sarcasm and condescension, and I owe you a
proper
acknowledgement of your apology, which I hope this is."

In that case, I believe you need to go back and apologize to Graham
for
saying, "Your response was not Helpful."

Thank you, Suzanne.

That was very useful and it works!

Did you not see the last part of Graham's post: "right click the

I think you understood what I was asking. Your response was not
Helpful,
but
rather a reprimand.

So CAN you answer positively? I would welcome that.

The
correct forum for your whinge would have been the Outlook

but
these

we
are.
If
you have a constructive question, such as 'how do I add a

But I can BUY it for $ 15 - 20, what a joke! And insult!
