No it shouldn't take long at all to do and finish, it is just opening up excel and starting it, is what I am having the problem with.  Excel = youtube.com? |

HELP!!!!!
I've finished the tax.
I'm trying to copy it to a disc and it won't work. (I have only done this once last year, and I can't remember what I did).
It says windows is having trouble trying to copy.
should I be using a cd-rw or dvd-r for the disc.

How are you trying to copy it?
If you're copying it to a disc, I don't think you can just drag it. Do you have a cd or dvd burning program installed?

I put the disc in.
I go to my computer and copy file, to disc (should I do disc c drive or disc d drive).
You then see the little file picture of files being transported but I get the message saying that windows have a problem.

It is just exel. I'm trying to copy my spreadsheets onto a disc.
Something is happening now, I am now getting a little balloon down the bottom telling me I have files to copy.

Why does it have to be on a disc? Can't you just email it? |

Just a sanity check, are you copying it to a silver compact disc or a square, floppy disk?

Because the Inland Revenue in Far North Queensland doesn't have e-mail, just a Commodore 64 hacked to read Excel spread sheets from floppies that are brought to the office by a man on a bicycle.
Duh!
