Attaching MS Word or Excel files

It is possible to attach Word or Excel files to a post on this forum. There doesn't seem to be any obvious procedure to use for this purpose like there is on the A-10 board. Maybe I'm just missing something or this board isn't configured that way.

I ask this because as "a10nick" I provide a thrice-weekly (T, Th, Su) report on the overall record of the A-10 in the OOC, its RPI and Sagarin ratings, and its OOC SOS index and rating (according to Ken Pomeroy). The A-10 board has been loading very slowly recently and earlier today I could not access it at all. I reasoned that if this were going to be an on-going problem with that board, I could post those reports here. The other Xavier basketball forum has such a feature but the file is about 1½ KB's too large to be accepted.

If you can save it to a web server, you could post a link to the file. Other than that I doubt you can post a file on a message board.

Thanks for the information, X-Fan. As it turned out, I was able to finally get onto the A-10 website and posted the regular Tuesday report. I can post MS Word files there directly from my computer. This site doesn't seem to have that as an option. I would have no idea how to save my files to a web server for posting onto this site.
