Office as well for me. Still not sure if I know how to do anything on this computer though haha. How do I change my invoices but instead of saving it changed, so no longer have the old one, do I save it 'save as' if that mak sense so basically using the old info except changing invoice number and dates

Andy-get Office for Mac. Bit arse about tit using MS software on Apple hardware but it works for me.

Ste-create an invoice in word. Press CMD & P together.
A box comes up bottom left hand side says PDF with a drop down arrow.
Click that. Choose 'save as PDF'
Create a name and choose a place to save it.
Perhaps 'Invoice Mrs Smith'
Save to desktop.
Then when you exit word, click 'yes' to save changes.
Then all you have to do next time the invoice is due is change the date.
Email over your PDF or print it, send to customer.
Create 3 folders.
Invoice Templates-word docs that you can change the date on each month.
Invoices paid-PDF's
Invoices outstanding-PDF's

Put all newly created invoices in the 'outstanding' folder.
When they are paid, drag & drop to the 'paid' folder.
Simples.

Perhaps there are better ways of utilising MAC's capabilities but its worked for me since getting my MBP.

I hit you up on a thread on here but must've missed it.
Can you text me the details please? Save putting them up for all & sundry!

Large beverage on its way to you soon.
