Directions for Sending Papers via E-Mail

A. Do not sent your papers as attachments to e-mail messages.

B. Here are the steps for sending your papers:

            1. Prepare, edit, rewrite, and finish your paper as a regular document in your word processor, including saving. Leave your document open.

            2. Go to "Edit" on the top and pull down the menu bar.

            3. Pull down to "Select All." This will highlight your whole text.

            4. Pull down to "Copy." this will store your text in your computer. Don't ask me where. Do not pull down to "Cut," as this would erase your text.

            5. Remove the highlight from your text.

            6. Close the document.

            7. Open your e-mail.

            8. Enter the destination address (e.g., dljohnson@uh.edu).

            9. Place your cursor in the area for messages.

            10. Go to "Edit."

            11. Pull down to "Paste." Your text will appear in your e-mail message area.

            12. Point and click on "Send."

            13. Hope for miracles.

            14. Keep your paper in word processing in case we have trouble and need to run  through this again.

With thanks to Professor Ed Willems for devising this procedure.
