NEW KID ON THE BLOCK

Hi, y’all. My first name is Anna Ruth and I live in Tampa, FL. I am 74 years young. Am recovering from a total hip replacement and hopefully in three more months I can get down and boogie again. Also, I am a caretaker for a brother, who has Alzheimer’s with short-term memory loss, so I stay pretty busy. Wanted to join so I will have another place to go to when I am having computer problems, which seems to be a lot.

foxygrandma, A warm welcome to you. We hope you enjoy the forum. So much to read and learn from the many sub-forums offered.

Under Operatng System, I deleted some stuff. Is that what you mean? Duh!

Whoops! I just saw yours and shortened mine. Sorry about that. This 74-year-old brain sometimes takes a while to comprehend.

Hello and Welcome foxygrandma

I think everything has already been pointed out by tallin, paws and Satchfan so I just wish you luck and hope that you don't have too many problems with that Dell System, they can be a bother( I have one myself.)

Thanks. I am always having problems with this Dell which I have had for four years now. Anyway, I did a search for copying to desktop on this site and I keep getting this: One or all of your search keywords were below 4 characters or you searched for words which are not allowed, such as 'html', 'img', etc, please go back and increase the length of these search keywords or choose different keywords.

Still trying to find out why a lot of what I do gets copied to the desktop. Like when I forward pps or wav from my email a copy of the pps or wav goes to the desktop; or when I copy an image from the web and put into a Microsoft Word a copy of the image goes to the desktop. Strange.

If it is email related post it here in the "Browsers, Internet and email"

Likewise if it is "Microsoft Word" related, I suggest post it here in "Microsoft Office™ ".

I recommend taking your time with your posts, as it can become quite overwhelming when you have a few lined up together, also 1 issue may solve another issue, so try not to become to involved with too many issues at once.

Hope I have lead you in the right direction.

Thank you. If you mean this: "Post your problems in the correct sub-forums to receive the very best of assistance. <—-Right here" I would click on it and nothing happened, but the one you put did. Wiill try it tomorrow sometime as it is 2 AM now. Thanks again.

I am not sure if it is email-related or not since when I copy something from the Web a copy also gets put on the desktop. And do not think it is Word related. I have used Microsoft Office Professinal 97 for about eight years now and it has always worked fine. So really not sure what forum to put the problem in.
