John, It wasn't private. (and my system can only just handle Word 2007) Best wishes, Nigel -----Original Message----- From: John Royce [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: 10 November 2008 18:23 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Turnitin and Windows Vista Dear Heather, We don't use Turnitin here - but, out of ignorance, I'm wondering if your students are submitting their files in .docx format rather than plain .doc? Can Turnitin handle Word 2007? If this is the root of the problem, let me know and I'll post this to the listserv and get the glory! If I'm completely wrong I can hide my head in shame and this private email...
