This must be the umteenth time i have written and never received a response. Why oh why when i just want to OPEN a document to you also SAVE it? What a waste of time, space and energy to go back in and delete all these non-essential saved documents and.or downloads. Yes i answer "OPEN" when i only want to open the document. Please, please, please give me an answer and tell me how to avoid all this frustration.
