Is there a way I can use a power point template as a background for word?

Posted: 10 Nov 2012 11:14 AM PST

      I went to office.com and downloaded some templates for power point. Is there a way I can open the same template in Microsoft word 10?? If so, please let me know!!! I've tried already, and I can't find any templates on office.com for Word 10 that would be good for writing a book... I've got two books started already, and wanted some kind of a design........

      In word, I clicked file, new, and then I went to books.... and I found every kind of book from cook books to photo albums to brochures to even business cards.... but I couldn't find one that is just specifically for writing your own, personal book. Can someone help please????? Much appreciated!

document prints with border which I did not ask for

Posted: 10 Nov 2012 07:06 AM PST

I generated  a page in Word 2007,  It looked great on screen with a Word generated green background.  However, when I print preview same, there was a narrow border around the whole document.  I proceeded to print it thinking it was an illusion on the screen.  However, it wasn't as it also printed with a narrow white border.    I trierd everything possible to remove it but to no avail.  Please help.

typing function compromised while using MS Word - has a mind of its own. Help

Posted: 09 Nov 2012 04:23 PM PST

My Windows 7 service pack installed on my Toshiba laptop crashed the other daay.
Toshiba IT support did some remote repairs uninstalling and reinstalling MS Word.
Since then, the typing function has been kooky. I'll be typing and then all of a sudden
the cursor goes on a trip and deletes sentences, closes pages and basically runs rampant
without any direction by my fingers!
I've defragged, changed settings, called Toshiba IT again, aand the problem still persists.
(Hence, the extra letters in words here and misspellings!).

Running out of suggestions.
Anyone else experience this problem and if so, what solution do you recommend.

Can we set up a table in Word 2010 to use as our data source for merging?

Posted: 09 Nov 2012 03:46 PM PST

If I recall correctly, I use to be able to set up a table in a Word document and use that table as my data source for merging.  Can this still be done or must I use the "Create recipient" list from the "Mailings" tab?

If you can still create your own data source in a Word table, and use that, can someone send me the steps to create then to pull from it to merge into my document please.

Thank you.

How to share mailmerge documents on skydrive

Posted: 09 Nov 2012 02:40 PM PST

I have an Excel club database that I want to put on Skydrive to share between the committee members together with various mailmerge reports. Word mailmerge documents have the original user name hardcoded in the data source path and so presumably cannot be shared on Skydrive without using VBA to amend the data source path. Because the other committee members do not have much computer knowledge I have set up a word document that displays a list of options that they double click on to run a VBA macro for the selected mailmerge. Recording a macro when generating the mailmerge document does not record the filter so I have tried to code the SQL string but keep getting an error message "no data records matched your query options"

    Dim strSql As String
    Dim strPath As String
    strPath = ActiveDocument.Path
    strSql = "SELECT * FROM `Database$` WHERE ""Member_status"" = ""paid"""
    Documents.Add DocumentType:=wdNewBlankDocument
    ActiveDocument.MailMerge.MainDocumentType = wdCatalog
    ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource Name:=strPath & "\Membership database.xlsm", _
        ConfirmConversions:=False, ReadOnly:=False, LinkToSource:=False, _
        AddToRecentFiles:=False, PasswordDocument:="", PasswordTemplate:="", _
        WritePasswordDocument:="", WritePasswordTemplate:="", Revert:=False, _

    Selection.TypeText Text:=vbTab
    ActiveDocument.MailMerge.Fields.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Name:="Known_as"
    Selection.TypeParagraph
    With ActiveDocument.MailMerge
        .Destination = wdSendToNewDocument
        .SuppressBlankLines = True
        With .DataSource

Are there issues/problems placing page number fields inside text boxes in header/footer? (Specifically numpage)

Posted: 09 Nov 2012 11:19 AM PST

Working in Word 2010.... with multi-page read-only, password protected form. 

 

The page number on the first page of the form does not fall in the same location as all remaining headers.  And, here's what I did.

1.  First inserted page and numpage field for 'page of' into a cell on the first page.  For read only document, highlighted each field and selected "Everyone" for exceptions.

2.  When I lock the file down, when testing by adding and deleting pages, the numpage field does not update, When manually updatiing the page number updates.  If I select FILE>Print>Home (for print preview)  the numpage field updates to 4 even though there are more pages in the document.

3.  I tried adding a textbox to the header and inserted the pagenumber fields.  This updates but when saving and re-opening the file, page 1 numpage field reverts to 1, it updates correctly when I print preview.  But everytime I close and re-open the file it reverts to 1 again....

 

What was peculiar ... I copied the fields from the text box and pasted them in the blank section 1 header so there are the fields and the fields in the text box.  When I open and close the document, both open correctly.  When I remove the regular page fields from the header, leaving those in the textbox and re-test, it goes back to defaulting to 1 when re-opened.  Did not have these problems in 2003.... anyone know what's going on?

How To Get Word 2010 To Open On Home Tab

Posted: 09 Nov 2012 10:19 AM PST

I recently installed Office 2010.  When I open Word, it opens on the Insert tab, not the Home tab.  I have seen responses to this question that the ribbon is minimized -- In this case, it is not.  I have the ribbon showing ... Is there another solution?  I should say that Excel does open in the home tab.

Thanks! 

I cannot make the TOC font match Normal

Posted: 08 Nov 2012 08:35 PM PST

For some reason, in just one document (of many), I cannot set the TOC font the same as the Normal font. I've tried deleting and re-creating. I've tried formatting the TOC.

Under Manage Styles, I'm unclear about checking or unchecking "Show recommended styles only."

I have the TOC font set to "Based on Normal."

I'm also unclear about checking or unchecking "Automatic Update."

I hope someone can tell me what I've done wrong and how to correct it.

[The Normal font is Calibri, while the TOC keeps being created and re-created in Times New Roman.]

Why do I need to preceed Hebrew characters with whitespace?

Posted: 08 Nov 2012 11:53 AM PST

New HP desktop
Windows 7 64 bit Professional
Office 2010
I have already installed the Hebrew language support through ControlPanel-Regions and Languages-Text Services and Input Languages and added the Hebrew Keyboard.
I have already enabled Hebrew in Office under Options-Language-Add additional editing language

I can type Hebrew letters after using alt-lshift to change the keyboard.  However, no letter is typed unless I precede it with a whitespace.  That seems to 'activate' the Hebrew keyboard, and Hebrew letters will appear as typed.
If I move the cursor to a previous typed area, I cannot insert new Hebrew text until, again, I type a whitespace character.
If I come back to the document after moving to a different window, same thing.

When creating additional Quick Keys in Word 2010, what is the best and quickest way to find out what Quick Keys are available (i.e. not already in use)?

Posted: 07 Nov 2012 07:34 AM PST

I have found various lists of existing Quick Keys in Word 2010 on the Web but not are complete.

 

I've attempted to use the Quick Key creation screen to navigate through existing keys but this is incredibly time consuming as you must go through every single command to see which ones have a quick key assisnged and what it is.

 

Is there another way to list existing Quick Keys?

In Word 2010 Mail Merge, is there a way to keep the merge field window open in order to select and insert the fields throughout the document.

Posted: 07 Nov 2012 07:27 AM PST

When creating the merge document, in order to insert the various merge field from the data source, the window or menu list do not stay open so you are constantly having to reopen that list or window for each field you want to insert.  Sometimes I get a window that does stay open, however the window will not allow you to navigate the document to select another location before inserting another field.

CRM Sales for Outlook /machine profiles

Posted: 23 Jan 2004 10:50 AM PST

Kelnic,

As long as they are still logging in with their Domain login, there
should be an issue (provided they went offline first). The machine
should allow the login as it will use the cached version of their
creditials, even though they aren't connected to the network.

One issue you're seeing is that the Sales for Outlook client does not
support a multi-user profile install. It will only work for the user
that was active when the sw was installed on the machine.

Custom Fields in Crystal Reports?

Posted: 23 Jan 2004 09:11 AM PST

Jairy is correct. open a report then in crystal click on
Database-Verify Database. This will make the report aware of all fields
including any you have added. The same technique is used if you want to add
custom fields to any of the standard reports that ship with CRM

Customisation

Posted: 23 Jan 2004 07:22 AM PST

Ali,

MS CRM provides some fairly extensive capabilities via it's out of the
box customization features. With those tools you can add fields to
the tables and customize the forms used by the system.

If you need to go beyond these features, you can develop your own .Net
code that uses the SDL to interact with the product. Using this, you
can add your own pages to the application and interact with other
applications within the CRM framework.

There is no built-in VBA scripting capability like the Office apps.

Best you could probably do as far as supported customizations is to use a
toolbar button to pop-open a window that does the crm lookup user, and then
copies the user name into a field in the parent form.

CRM E-mail in Outlook

Posted: 22 Jan 2004 05:54 PM PST

Jairy:

Thanks for your response.

We are a MSDN Subscriber and do not have the ability
to "talk" to the developers.

These email restriction are really a need by many of our
potential clients.

The need to have ability to have multiple From: addresses
is also something that is required.

Having multiple Business Units but not allowing Reply
addresses related doesn't make sense.

I understand the issues of a version 1 product. I do
hope they find these things planned for V2.

If you can "talk" to the MS people involved it may help.

If you hear anything on this please let me know.

Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback.

It seems if you allow multiple Business Units, you need

I understand the V1 issues, I sure hope that V2 can
consider some of these things.

CRM Security issue with Administrator account

CRM 1.0 will not work on the 2003 platforms, however it will work with
SBS 2000. CRM 1.2 does support the 2003 platforms.

E-Mail Issue

Posted: 22 Jan 2004 12:20 PM PST

I have seen this solution in the TechKnowledge area of support.

This seems to imply the error is on a Queue, but these are on e-mails that
are done by Users.

In running through the solution, for the Queue I assume when it says: 9. In
the Permissions tab, select Authenticate user.


That you mean "Authenticated Users" as I don't see the other one. When I
select the Advanced button there are listings for "Authenticated Users" and
some are for "User objects" and there is a separate list for "This object
only". Should they both be there?

Installation of CRM 1.2 in one machine

Posted: 22 Jan 2004 09:10 AM PST

Hi Manel:

Aside from any hardware problems, this is not a supported
configuration for MSCRM UNLESS the one machine is
installed with SBS. THis is becuase of the differences in
the ways SBS and a regular DC handle certain security
areas.

It is because of the way local machine SIDs are handled
by CRM, the local machine SIDs are stripped and the
domain SIDs are used, so if you install on one box, the
domain SIDs are stripped. If a user is then from a
trusted domain and not the CRM domain, it's a problem.
But SBS doesn't allow multi-domains so it removes this
issue.

As for hardware, as long as you have the horsepower, one
box is not a big deal. I run a P4 3.06 with 2 GB of RAM
and RAID 5 with SBS 2003/CRM 1.2 and it rocks...

John.

After these changes you need to save the form. Open Deployment Manager and
publish the form. Once completed open a command prompt and run IISRESET to
restart the web server.

CRM security role v1.0

Posted: 21 Jan 2004 06:16 PM PST

Hi Joe, I think there is an error in your logic. Do you want her to be able
to see and assign activities at an org level, or do you want her to see them
at a BU level, but assign to anyone org wide?

To be able to assign activities at an org level would mean she would have
rights to read activities at an org level...you need to see them to assign
them :) If you only want her to be able to assign activities visible in her
BU, then grant her BU assign. She can still assign to any user, no matter
what org. The assign permission only says what activities she can see to
assign, not who she can assign those activities too.

Attaching a document to an Email via SDK - Urgent

Posted: 21 Jan 2004 04:56 PM PST

Hi Mike -

There is no need really to "upload" the document to the server - its there
already... I need to insert it into an attachment (uploading it "into" the
CRM database) I guess using "upload" was a bit confusing. I just meant
uploading it "into" the attachment table... through the sdk... I can see
the fields, but I cannot "update" the ones referring to the filename, size,
and contents...
