 * FYI, I KNOW they’re different, thanks for your condescension. My other sites 
   are hosted elsewhere on .org software.
 * But I was hoping that someone on the forum would be gracious and share the solution.
   I’m sure there’s a plugin (which, yes, comes from the .org site that sources 
   the code) that will correct my situation.

 * Sorry, forgot to say. Yes, I am admin. There are no other admins.
 * Edit: Let me rephrase that. I SHOULD be, USED to be, admin.

 * Fourth attempt didn’t work. Waited the 20 minutes, tried again, and it took.

 * Nope, it’s still not working. All formatting is still removed, and while I _can
   _reformat in WP, there’s no point in it.
 * I may redownload Open Office Writer and see if I can use that instead of Word.
   I’m not always where I have internet access so that I can work directly in WP,
   and I often write posts over several days, so I’d rather work from a static, 
   offline word processing program.
 * Incidentally, copying and pasting into a copy editor program such as Notepad 
   removed the formatting, so there’s no point in doing that. I’ve been muddling
   along with reformatting for a good eight months now, so I suppose I can keep 
   it up.

 * I have just installed the Tiny MCE Advanced, which I had been avoiding doing 
   because of the comments in other forum posts about it not working to fix this
   problem. (Forgot to mention that. But I am hoping that perhaps that referred 
   to an earlier version of Tiny MCE.)
 * Will report back. And thanks very much.
 * By the way, the first link doesn’t seem to be applicable. Perhaps it takes the
   Tiny MCE for it to work.

 * I just now logged out, cleared my cache and cookies AGAIN (the earlier attempt
   was yesterday), restarted my computer, logged back in — and yippee, Dashboard
   is now living again.
 * Don’t know what the difference was since I had done all those tasks before, but
   not at the same time.

 * CRAP.
 * Thanks so much, esmi.
