    Unable to attach any file in Excel Forum

    I'm not sure why this is the case, but whenever I am writing a new post and click on the Attach File icon, the only thing that happens is that a white box approximately 2 inches wide and 1/8 in tall appears. I am expecting some sort of file browser to open and allow me to select the file that I intend to attach, but this is not the case. I am using FireFox version 54.4.0 (32 bit) on a 64 bit laptop. I get the same results using Internet Explorer version 11.0.9600.18837CO with update version 11.0.48. I've gone into Forum settings, and toggled between Enhanced Attachment Mode On & Off, with no change in result. I see others having no issues attaching files. Am I doing something wrong? Is file attachment a paid service?

    Unfortunately the attachment icon doesn't work at the moment. So, to attach an Excel file you have to do the following: Just before posting, scroll down to Go Advanced and then scroll down to Manage Attachments. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.
