Macro Recording and Automating Windows with Macro Scheduler – Tips & News
In a way I feel I’m about to blow my own cover with this post. But I’m pretty sure many people will find this really useful. I seem to have a reputation for knowing everything. People always come to me with their computer problems and I’m nearly always able to find a solution. When I […]
“The Office” fans will love these fun Microsoft UK training videos with Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant: http://download.ifilm.com/qt/portal/2751040_200.mov http://download.ifilm.com/qt/portal/2751041_200.mov From: Inside Microsoft.

After all, I believe in the saying “Horses for Courses” – one can’t expect everyone to like our software. But I was a bit upset about that […]
Yikes, it’s hot here in SW England. Someone told me today will be hottest day on record since 1911!
