The instructions are not incomplete.

There's a very, very good reason why there are no such instructions.

"Importing" into what, do you imagine?

Wow, really? You know what Tomcat's menu is, brain trust? It's the 
browser menu. Where does the browser say, "Import from Word", huh, genius?

You happen to be mistaken about Tomcat - it doesn't have a menu. As you 
would know had you read the instructions, which clearly you did not.

You are wrong.

My statements are not opinion. Tomcat does not do what you are trying to do.

We do know the answer. We've told you the answer. You refuse to accept the answers.

Tomcat does not "import from Word", or any other product. It's an application server.

I am being dismissive because you are disregarding the information we're giving you,
you haven't read the instructions, you have no clue what Tomcat even is or you'd know 
it doesn't do what you're asking for, and you are doing absolutely nothing to educate yourself.
Instead you are arguing with the facts and copping an attitude.

Fooey on you.
