RE: Word

Hi Driss,

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

Have you tried opening an older file from within 2010? If so did it display an error message of any sort?

If you have a Word file that has been created either in 2003 or earlier, you can open the old file from within Word 2010 as normal.

However, if you want to use the full features of 2010 you have to convert the file to 2010 version(.docx).

I hope this helps.

Regards

Simon

Excel tip:

Generating Random Numbers

To generate a random number in Excel use the = RAND() function.

The value returned will always be between 0 and 1. To convert this to some other random value, you will need to multiply the result by the highest number you want to consider. For example, if you wanted a random number between 1 and 25, you could use the following code line:
= INT(25 * RAND()+ 1)

Since RAND() will always returns a value between 0 and 1 (but never 1 itself), multiplying what it returns by 25 and then using the Integer function INT on that result will return a whole number between 0 and 24.

Finally, 1 is added to this result, so that x will be equal to a number between 1 and 25, inclusive
