I had to look that one up on the properties of one of my PowerPoint presentations. I believe I understand. My Microsoft Office Suite for Word, Excel, Access, etc is 2007. In subsequent releases of their Office Suite, they used an extension of .doc for Word but as of the 2007 Microsoft Office Suite, they began using a new extension of .docx. In other words, if I wanted to enable PowerPoint presentations, I'd have to somehow insert .ppt & .pptx somewhere so that members who are now working with newer versions would also be able to share their work. Would I be correct?

Would it behoove me to purchase this vB software right now so I could start plugging these things in as they arise and are fresh on my mind? Or, is there a way to bookmark my threads here so I can refer back to them in a few months? I'm concerned about forgetting all these little things.

I wanted to hold off purchasing to try to better manage my money by staggering what would be due and when. I believe there is a renewal fee to vB that is $50 a year to cover upgrades/updates and presumably that will be due on the anniversary of the original purchase date. I'm really trying hard to avoid clumps of little bills coming due in the months of July, August, September, December, and April as those are particularly horrible months for us. Not that $50 is unreasonable but we have some big bills due in those months plus all of our regular monthly household bills and all these little ones add up so darn fast.
