Can't Upload a File

Hi everyone!

I had submitted this article and the first time it was rejected because I forgot to edit out a word and a photo and have been trying to resubmit it. I know I'm supposed to use a txt or docx file, and I think my documents are all docx files but every time I try to resubmit the article it never shows up. This is really, seriously frustrating me. The editors are being very patient and I sure appreciate that, but I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Help! Please!!! Thanks, Meg :)

Be sure to click the upload button after you browse for the file. Just browsing for the file will not automatically upload the file.

I always convert my docx files to .doc before submitting here. Might be worth a try.

Hi Jak, thanks for replying.

This may seem like a dumb question but I don't know how to convert my files from docx to .doc. I can't find where to do that. Thanks, Meg :?:

Click "Save As" and select "doc" from the "File Type" dropdown.
