    Just wondering if anyone actually uses that Blog Post feature Microsoft put in Word 2007. It seems pretty handy, but I haven't tested it yet.

    I have actually dumped Office 2007 altogether.
    Outlook pissed me off one time too many and I uninstalled it, and the rest of the MS, processor hogging, Crap went with it, all the way down to Windows Media Player. (But don't get me started)

    My personal experience with using Word for posting is that the font sizes and styles don't transfer well to a word press post.
    I always ended up re editing them to get it right.
    If I remember correctly , on long posts (like over 4 hefty paragraphs) the fonts would come out different through out the document.

    It is just simpler to post in the wordpress editor.
    (But I can't say that I was using word correctly either, for blog posts)

    So does the 2007 Word version still have the font problems?

    If I ever made a post in Word 2003 I just did the text, then copied it into a text doc, then into the wordpress editor...So using word was the last resort for me

    Right, me too, and now Fire Fox has a built in, so...It was very easy to say good bye to Bill (Gates) and his plan of world processor domination.
