Hi Fred,
Are there any updates from you? Following the instructions we shared earlier on how to send questions to Copilot Community, may we ask if you’ve been able to send questions? If yes, please feel free to let us know.

Dear Fred,
Welcome to the Microsoft Community.
Regarding your question about Copilot. For you to be assisted properly, please reach out to Questions - Microsoft Q&A; I am sure that the experts on this team can answer your question effectively and accurately. The reason I'm asking you to post a new thread is that in the Answers forum, we have limited resources and very few resources to test copilot and in Questions – Microsoft Q&A, you'll get the most qualified group of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction.
I also recommend adding the following tags to help you navigate to the relevant team more quickly:
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. Feel free to post your questions in the Microsoft community and we'll always do our best to help you!
Have a good day!
Best regards,
