Getting msg "Microsoft Office is Already in use"

Hi Alex:

It might be worth changing that password, just to make sure "they" haven't
cracked it.

It could also be worth asking to see if anyone has been using "Fast User
Switching" on your machine. If the other ID has left Word running, and it
can reach the network, that would do it...

Cheers

Microsoft Messenger Video Conversations for Mac

Posted: 12 May 2007 04:38 PM PDT

Skype video quality is generally excellent, in my experience.

However, the Skype protocol does sacrifice video in favour of audio, and
autio in favour of text. If the connection is struggling for real
bandwidth, the video quality will be "ordinary". I wouldn't attempt Skype
Video if there is less than 256 kb of braodband available (with no other
users or programs using it). A high-band (20 mbps) Cable connection gives
very good video quality.

Cheers

Getting a heading style within a paragraph sentence

Glad to help. You didn't mention that the ultimate reason was a TOC, so
I didn't realize TC fields were an option for you.

More good TOC tips here, if you didn't browse her site:

I have no clue. It¹s not something I would want to try. It¹s certainly not

Valid CD key not accepted after installation

Posted: 09 May 2007 05:18 PM PDT

Why is the "Office X" setup assistant appearing? If it is, that's the
problem. Office X will not accept an Office 2004 product key.

I assume that was a mis-type on your part? In which case you could try
re-serialising the product: see the last section of this page:
http://www.entourage.mvps.org/install/index.html

Hope this helps

Custom Installation for Office Mac 2004

Posted: 09 May 2007 10:16 AM PDT

Hi,

You can do a custom install of office for the Mac. When you pop the CD in
you'll be offered two ways to install: using the assistant or drag and drop.

You should use the Assistant. You can choose just Excel, but look through
the options to make sure you don't leave out something you might want later
on. For example, if you use equations make sure you take the equation
editor. Take VBA options if you use VBA.

Excel for Mac will run smoothly with your hardware.

The xls file format is supported by Office 2004, Office 2003, and Office
2007. The only problem you'll have if is if you try to use the new format
that's the default (which you can change) in Excel 2007. The Mac converters
have not been shipped yet.

Enjoy your new Mac!

MS Word 2003 and C# - A smarter document possible?

Posted: 09 May 2007 07:42 AM PDT

I think you will find that XML is the way of the future.

Yes, you do have to create an XML document and its attendant transform to do
what you want, because you will need to define a namespace.

However, done right the user will not be able to detect the difference
between the Word documents they were creating and your XML version. In
fact, the simple way of doing it would be to save their existing document as
an XML file, and then add your own tags.

To get this to work right, you do have to eat the first elephant :-) After
that, XML will prove to be a far better way to go: and will smoothly
up-convert to future versions of Office, on both PC and Mac.

Cheers
