Hi Sonia. Thank you for your posting  here. I tried to open up your article on both the main computer and on iPad, but it opens up to a sort of DOS language which is almost unreadable and therefore unusable in its present format. I suggest you use MS Word or Microsoft Office if you can get access to them. The older versions are quite compatible with our community forum, if you can get one. The new ones of course are good, but expensive. You may be able to find a Word programme that is downloadable on the Web that is free. Good luck with your writing and posting, and please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Hi Trevor,

That's really strange that it didn't open.  I do have Word, thanks.  I put it into Notepad format because of the recommendation in the submission guidelines to do so to retain formatting, but obviously that didn't work.  :-)

So, lets try again - here it is attached in Word.

Thanks so much!

Sonia

Hi Sonia, thank you. It now opens up fine and I am able to copy the draft. Your next step is to post it to the community so that Kathy or I can assess it for possible publication. Go on to your page and click on the article button, copy and paste your article into the box provided and save it. It will then appear in the community and we can take it from there. Any problems, shout.  Many thanks, Trevor

Hi Trevor, I've done it.  I think.  I published post rather than Save Draft.  I didn't see the Save Draft option until I"d already published it.  Is that correct?  It seems like Save Draft would only allow me to see it?  Thanks for all your help, I really appreciate it.  :-)  I'll get this figured out sooner than later.
