Critical Announcements:
- Are you having problems accessing student/instructor documents?
The most common reasons for trouble with documents on UTC Online are files saved in Microsoft Office 2007 and the use of illegal characters in file names.- Microsoft Office 2007: A saved file using Microsoft Office 2007 will have an "x" as part of the file extension. For example, a Word document extension would be .docx. Download the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack (Windows | Mac) if you are not using Microsoft Office 2007 so you can open and save these types of files. Click here to learn how to save a document in Word 2007 to be compatible with earlier versions of Word.
- Illegal Characters in File Names: Blackboard allows files with illegal characters in the file name to be submitted to the instructor (e.g., Assignment #1.doc); however, the instructor often cannot view such files. The fix in this case is for the student to rename the file without the illegal character(s) and resubmit it. Allowed characters in file names are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, a "-" (dash), and an "_" (underscore). It is highly recommended that file names containing spaces, slashes, #, %, $, etc., not be submitted.
