I appreciate all the assistance from folks, in particular in the Author's Forums! I have resolved my issues with MS Word/Office 365, by transitioning to LibraOffice.
I highly recommend Libra Office to anyone (lime me previously) who is hesitant.
Some of my most recent chapters of Aztlan Portal seem to be "corrupted" or lost. I do have Back-ups, however they are in MS Word... Before I access those, I am Learning about LibraOffice. Currently I am opening older stories, or other documents I could tolerate being lost.
I am using https://help.libreoffice.org/7.3/en-US/text/swriter/guide/globaldoc.html
Still, I have a lot to Learn. I am also house and in particular Pet Sitting. One of the critters is recovering from a surgery just days before I started, another is a near full-grown puppy (77+ pounds) who thinks he is still the much smaller puppy. He injured my knee inadvertently.
Nonetheless, I am much happier than I was a month ago! I am resolving my computer issues (and have been promised a newer, used computer with more power/space) in addition to LO. I am writing and editing, and hope to get a chapter sent to my volunteer proofreader. Not going to happen tonight, well Morning now...
One issue I am having is the Dictionary. I had added many words to my MS Word dictionary. In LO "Cruz" is not considered a "word" in the English language Dictionary! All of my Spanish names and words are underlined in squiggly red!
I am trying to learn if there are additional language dictionaries for LO (MS Word had (American) English, (British) English, French, German, Latin, and Spanish that I was actively using and had modified).
Is there a better Thesaurus for LO? The "onboard" one is much inferior to MS Word.
Anyway, I have had a full week with internet for my computer, LO, and a much more peaceful setting. Perhaps I have been strolling with the dogs, and enjoying the critters all joining me on the bed in a "Cuddle Puddle" typically, they each have their own human; but they know me, and seem to adapt to having only me to care for them.
Good Times! If anyone has suggestions about adapting to my LO questions, Please respond to this Blog post, or PM me.
Cheers!
