  • I'll put that idea on the board. Sounds like a perfect thing for the Office 15-Minute Webinars.

  • I was going to request a session on InfoPath, but see that RobbieAtk already mentioned it...so you can count that as two votes for that one.  :)  Another one I would like to learn more about is Pivot Tables in Excel.  Thanks for these sessions; they're awesome.

  • I just found these webinars. They're very helpful. i'd like to request a session on working with slide masters in powerpoint.

  • webinar ideas: data analysis in excel, styles in word, copy&paste in word (how it works when pasting data between 2 docs when styles collide...) ... when I'm pasting a large number of data between 2 docs it always ruins my styles.

  • Very much enjoying these webinars and learning a lot. I'd like to see a webinar on Access (although a 15 minute window could be tricky I realise!) as it seems like a very powerful application for businesses, especially with Sharepoint sites and would be good to learn how I could use it to it's full potential.

  • Webinaar are a great way to convey message across clearly. While lot of help text and book available, Your webinaar are unique to get value from Office tips pretty quick.

  • I do not have access to youtube at my office - it is blocked. Is there any other way to view these vidoes?

  • At this time, no. We just embed the youtube videos into our blog posts, although we are still tinkering with our production. Tell me, can you views the videos at Office.com from your office? Sample: office.microsoft.com/.../microsoft-office-2010-video-tutorials-FX102493438.aspx

  • •If you choose the web browser option, you will need to call a phone number listed above.

    What is the link for the web browser option?  

    Thanks

  • In all instances, click the Join online Meeting. What happens after that depends upon your set up. Thanks for the note, I've updated the instructions to make that more clear.  --Doug

  • Suggestion for webinar - info path - how to use it or create a form in it.

  • The link is given when you click the "Join Online Meeting" OR using join.microsoft.com/.../F274WBQZ

  • They might have a black list with YouTube included, however you can skip this by using the following site http://ninjacloak.com/ and good luck.

  • I cannot download the calendar. Can you help me Doug?

  • That calendar is a .ics file extension for the reminders.
