| Problem with Page numbers not appearing on screen documents Posted: 13 Nov 2012 10:22 AM PST When I use Header/Footer OR insert page numbers -- <PAGE> appears on my document, but the actual numbers don't appear. When I print the page, the numbers print out. Before a couple of months ago the Header/Footer or insert page numbers worked fine. I need to get this corrected ASAP in order to send in a publication. I need the actual numbers to appear on my screen document. |
| Word VBA: code to get number of liness in a selection Posted: 13 Nov 2012 08:52 AM PST I have looked through the word vba objects and even tried guessing at some but still need to know how to get the number of lines in a selection of text in a document. Seems that there must be somehing like (guess) : linecount=Selection.Count item:=wdlines |
| Posted: 13 Nov 2012 06:04 AM PST Address blocks are not all the same length, some may be 4 lines long others may be 5 or 6. I want to ensure that the greeting line does not appear in the window of an envelope when the length of the address block is not one of the longer addresses. Is it possible to ensure the greetings line always appears on the same line for each letter and any page skipping always skips at the same place for each letter.
Thankyou in advance for any help.

| Word (2010 or 2013) custom templates Posted: 12 Nov 2012 03:38 PM PST i want to produce several documents based on a template where only a few fields (like company names and dates) would change per document. is there a way to build a custom "wizard" or "userform" in word (2010 or 2013) without having to write code? i would also like to specify certain chunks of boilerplate content to be included/excluded from the document. |

| Scanned document has different page sizes Posted: 12 Nov 2012 04:42 AM PST I scanned an A4 document on a HP Scanner. File is an RTF. When I open it in Word it has some pages at A4 size and some at Legal. When I try and change the page size it very helpfully tells me I have exceeded width of page and it will not allow me to change it. It will also not identify where the problem is. I have tried copy and past to a new document and it carries the problem with it. I have saved file as .doc and .docx and it does the same thing. HOW can I force it to change page size regardless of content on page? Any help gratefully received.... Jeff Chartrand |
| Saving a document created from a template containing macros Posted: 12 Nov 2012 12:15 AM PST I've searched through the forums here, but I can't seem to find exactly what I'm looking for. I know the general topic has been dealt with several times before - my advance apologies - but I need a more detailed overview regarding the saving of documents created from a template containing macros. I am using Word 2010 on Windows 7. My goal is to allow others to use a template I have made in order to create a dynamic document, i.e. one which retains the functions I have enabled through the addition of VBA macros - even after having saved the document. That is, I would like the document they have created to remain dynamic when changes are made after the initial save. My problem is figuring out how exactly this is to be accomplished. I have created a template containing VBA macros, saved as a macro-enabled word template (.dotm). All the macros work fine in the template. If I create a document (via either right-click > New or icon > double click) based on this template, all the macros work perfectly - until I save the newly created document. As I could gather from other forum posts, once the new document is saved as a normal Word document (.docx), then the macros will no longer work for any changes made in future edits. This makes sense to me, as - I'm assuming here - macros are not enabled in a .docx. However, I would like the document to remain dynamic, i.e. for the macros to continue working, even after the initial save. To be more specific: My template performs - via VBA - some calculations and a few IfThen arguments based on them. While the document is being created from the template, I have no problem using the macro-enabled functions - all works as it should. If, however, I want to update this document using something which relies upon what was macro-driven in the original template, nothing happens. And that's a problem, as I don't want to have to fill out the entire template again just to make a relatively minor adjustment to the few numbers being calculated - which will, given the nature of the template - be required on a regular basis. Can this be accomplished? Would it help to save the new document as a .docm instead of as a .docx? Does a copy of the original template need to be on every computer using documents created from that template in order for them to work? Would it be better to not use a template at all, but to simply make a copy of the original form (saved as a .docm) for each new document? And if I were to do so, would the VBA code in the original be copied also? If I mail a copy of a .docm, can the recipient use the macros? I would really appreciate if someone could explain the details of saving documents created from templates containing macros, and whether or not there is a way to accomplish my goal. Many thanks in advance, -AM |
| Problem with Word find and replace Posted: 10 Nov 2012 08:42 AM PST I have a number of word documents from another author. In some of the documents, when I want to replace a section of text, I can locate it using the "find" box, but when I then go into the "replace" box it tells me it can't be found. The text is normal, a mixture of characters and numbers. It appears to be something to do with the spaces between the words, as sometimes when I try to delete the space using the back key, I have to press it more than once for it to work. I would be grateful for any suggestions.
