crystal,

Constant-Content doesn't accept Word Perfect files. When you click "save as," look at the bottom and it will have a place where you can click on a drop down menu to save in other formats. Choose "rich text." Save it in that format and upload it again. That should work perfectly. If you need more help, please post here.

Hi crystallee,

Try turning off your firewall and virus program right before you hit the submit button. Just make sure you turn them back on after you submit.

Or you could try openoffice. It's open source and performs much the same as Word, plus you can save your files in Word .doc format.
