Is there a way to reduce the space between a bullet and the words that follow?

insert article numbers

Posted: 27 Mar 2013 03:12 AM PDT

hi,

i am working on a contract. i am using auto numbering for the article numbers.

i am referring sometimes to some contract items with the article number and the title of it.

What I want to do is, if any change in the article number by deleting or inserting articles in the contract, i want these referred articles change as well.

I guess, Only way i can do is by Adding Field but I can not refer to the article item i want.


I can make an example and post if my question is not clear.


thanks for the help.

How to change from "Arial Narrow Special" to ordinary "Arial" in M.S Word 2007 document?

Posted: 27 Mar 2013 03:10 AM PDT

I am using "Arial Narrow Special G1 - how can I change back to Times or Arial in M.S Word 2007 document which uses the font "Arial Narrow Special".  

This is appearing as a type of Cryllic alphabet, so I can't read it.  If I highlight the text and try to change the font, I get either rows of squares, question marks or dots. When I send this document to people, they can't open it (since the document uses the "Arial Narrow Special G1").
 Please can anyone help me to change the font back to ordinary "Arial" or anything else that can be read?

The return address always prints in headings font.

I have the same problem but the resolutions posted do not solve the problem. I can go into an existing form letter, type in the address, select print and the font is the "headings" font. If I change it and request it be set as the default, once I print the envelope and want to print another envelope for the same letter without getting out, I have to re-set the font to what I want. I've even copied the existing letter and put on a new blank form then saved it hoping the envelope will print in the desired font, but no it doesn't. If I type a brand new letter on a blank form, the envelope prints just fine. What's the problem with the existing letters?

Non-Editable Form Fields

Posted: 27 Mar 2013 01:33 AM PDT

In a protected form (Word table), Cell 1 is a number form field, Cell 2 is a number form field, and Cell 3 is a percentage calculation using the info in Cell 1 and Cell 2 ((Cell 1 / Cell 2) * 100). Cell 3 is therefore not user editable.
In protected status, my Cell 3 does not auto update once the information in Cell 1 and Cell 2 is provided.
Is it possible to get this form to react in this manner, and if yes, what would it take to do this.
I am using the Legacy Tools form fields.

How do I modify a simple equation in Word 2010 without having to retype it all over again?

Posted: 24 Mar 2013 03:37 PM PDT

Is it by any chance possible to modify this very simple equation without me having to retype it all over again?

I just want to extend the radical sign so that it rests on top of the whole thing on the right side of the equation sign, and I want the second term to be squared, so I would like to see an exponent of 2 there.

The problem is, there appears to be no control over the radical sign. Once you made your pick you can't go back and tell it that the whole thing has to be enclosed within the radical sign.

And as for the exponentiation, the problem here is that when I place the marker to the right of the last closing parenthesis (which is where I want it) and go to Script menu and pick the appropriate superscript option, it adds not one but two empty boxes. So it asks me to enter my base and my exponent. But I already have the base! I just want to exponentiate it. Where's the option for that?...

You see why I have to retype it all over again?

I think this new equation input in Word is much better than the old methods, and it is very intuitively laid out. But the control over the structure is not very good. It would seem that one has to take a step back and think it through carefully and take into consideration the order in which the equation is entered. Because order in which you enter the information does matter, because there's no good way of reverting back and making mdoficiations to it. So if you don't want to retype everything all over again you would have to think about what element you want to start with first and where you put your parentheses.

Am I under the wrong impression here?

I work with good old Latex when I have to input mathematical equations. It's more tedious but it allows me to do whatever I want to. I just thought I would give the built-in equation editor in Word a try. My first impressions are not very good.
