    To anyone who can help.
    I'm trying to upload a valve clearance measuring chart to help with maintenance.
    It's a Word document, but when I try the 'upload file' button it cannot be found. What am I doing wrong?
    The chart is in my PC's documents folder but cannot be found here. Do I need to take a photo of the sheet of paper & upload that instead, because I can't find any other way around it?

    Regards

    Steve

    No idea what you're doing wrong. I've uploaded Word, Excel, and pics with the 'Upload a File' button. That should bring up your computer's documents menu from which you just navigate to find correct FOLDER and THEN correct document and simply click and it will upload.

    You might have a fancy 'pop up' blocker that's stopping the Docs menu from loading.

    Cheers for replying sport. I just don't know the reason why. I'm pretty illiterate when it comes to computers, so perhaps I should ask a 12 year old!
    I've printed it ready to scan, so will try it that way.
    Thanks Nigel.

    Not sure what file types will be accepted for uploading but personally I would save it as PDF as I won't open Word documents that have been downloaded from the InterPorn. As an added benefit PDF is pretty much accepted as an upload type and doesn't require people to have Office l.
