There doesn't seem to be a public.word.general newsgroup. I could have sworn
I used to use it. Thanks for any advice.

There isn't a "general" Word newsgroup. Try
'microsoft.public.word.newusers'. (While some newsservers may carry
'microsoft.public.word', it's not one carried by the MS newsserver AFAIK.)
