About Aidan Heritage
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
I have provided first hand support since `95 for Microsoft Office majoring in Word and Excel - support for all versions from 2 onwards

Experience
My background is in the insurance industry and call centre areas, but have been called upon to provide many varied solutions.

Education/Credentials
I'm educated to UK A level standard, but as I left school some 30 years ago that is rather irrelevent - university of life has provided more of a background!
