How do I change a document to become a .doc file to upload?
Which version of Office do you have? If it's Office 2007 beta, then it's
saved as .docx and you would need to change the save as options to the 2003 version from the drop down menu. "jobseeker" wrote: I have to upload my resume to the Monster Website.

How do I change a document to become a .doc file to upload?
Open your resume, File - Save As - make sure it's being saved as a .doc.
You aren't using the beta, are you? Not a good idea for this usage. You'll have to do a save as and make sure it's set to save it as a Word 2003 compatible document. If for some reason (and these things *do* happen!), something gets screwed up in the translation, you won't get a job. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "jobseeker" wrote in message ...

Okay,I tried that. How do you know it is saved as a .doc.? I had to pick from
drop down. I picked save as a word document. Originially, I picked rich text formatt. I am using Word 2002.

How do I change a document to become a .doc file to upload?
The biggest clue is that the file name will end in .doc.
(You know that you're going to get boatloads of spam once your resume is posted. My resume is posted there and I'm glad I used one of my junk mail accounts for their records. My resume has my "real" addy.) -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "jobseeker" wrote in message ... Okay,I tried that. How do you know it is saved as a .doc.? I had to pick from drop down.

Thanx for the heads up on the spam. I do not see the .doc at the end of the
file. It is still the .rft. Any other suggestions?...jobseeker "JoAnn Paules [MVP]" wrote: The biggest clue is that the file name will end in .doc.

File - Save as. Make sure it says Word document (*.doc). Name your file but
don't add the .doc yourself - let the program do that. I would also suggest naming it something other than what you have been naming it so that you KNOW which file is correct. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "jobseeker" wrote in message ...
