I would like to write a nice letter to ask for a pay rise, how should I go
about it?
I have been in my job for over 5 years and my last pay rise was two years ago.

This newsgroup is designed to advise on the technical aspects of using Word,
not to give advice on the *content* of documents written in Word. It is not
the best place to ask your question. Search the web for examples (using
Google at http://www.google.com/ or another search engine), or use your
imagination. You might look for career advice sites.

It零 marginally possible that the MS-hosted bank of templates by MS and
third parties will offer something:

Seriously, this is a forum for discussing how to use Word features and
not what words to write.

Instead of writing a letter asking for a pay raise (are you prepared to
be told no?), you might seek a performance review with your
boss/supervisor. If granted be prepared to discuss your positive
contributions and the value you bring to the product/service. If the
boss agrees and has lots of good things to say about you then the
discussion might turn to more equitable compensation ;-)
