What are you trying to use it on?

I'm trying to use it on Word docs, like for my business name and address.

If your name and address are ordinary text, you can't apply 3-D, which
applies only to AutoShapes (including WordArt). You can apply a shadow to
ordinary text (through Format | Font), but that's about it.

FROM THE MICROSOFT "GETTING STARTED" POSTING:
"Enter a brief, meaningful summary in the Subject box . . .
Enter a good description ... in the Body box."
Well, so help me God, after clicking on "New" and then "General Comment" in
the drop-down menu, I can't bring up any Subject box or any Body box to save
my life ! I repeatedly try, and I see only a little blink in my display and
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE.
Succinctly (SORRY TO POST IRRELEVANT TO THIS THREAD) Anybody advise me? I
log in, I read the postings, I can even post a reply like this one. But NO
WAY can I post a new thread. I'm 8 years experienced with internet browsing,
but I can't find a way to reveal any of the above-described fields to start a
new thread !!

Hey congrats! You started a new thread.

Although it does appear that way, this is not the case in the other NGs
where Only Ork has multi-posted. I suspect he may have just tacked onto such
an old thread that it's no longer displayed in your newsreader.
