i am still having problems with trying to upload my CV in a doc format and its driving me crazy?

Question

Thanks to everyone who answered me.
O n my computer i have microsoft works tasks launcher, microsoft works word prosessor. Do i have the correct soft wear on my computer.

Answer 1

Well two options-
MS office
or change the doc file to Rich Text Format (RTF)

Answer 2

Do you mean upload to the web or upload as in read / edit / change?

To upload onto the web you need a browser and you need the website to provide a way of putting files onto it.

To read a .doc file you *need* a word processor that understands word document format files. Works word processor can't read .doc files - it doesn't understand what the commands mean.

You need either to get hold of Microsoft Word (at a version new enough to be able to understand the commands that the document contains (i.e. word 2000 will understand word97 files, but word 97 may not understand word2000 files completely) or some other word processor. I'd suggest you download Open Office... I use it on a daily basis for reading/writing word and excel files and it mostly works, but sometimes it gets the formatting a bit wrong.

Or the other way is to get a friend to use their 'word' program to open the file and save it in a format your Works word processor will understand.

Answer 3

If you don't have the money for Microsoft Office, download the free Open Office 'Writer' word processor. It will save your document as a .doc
http;//www.openoffice.org

You can have the full suite or just the individual programs you want.
When you've installed it, go to File - Open. Open your cv the click
File - Save As and choose 'filename.doc'.

Answer 4

I did suggest last time that you should try RTF (rich text format) if .doc didn't work. I have exactly the same problem on my PC. Go on, try it!!

Answer 5

Install MS-office in your system and upload your document file. It will work.
