Hi, I have no idea how to do programming or macro writing in Word.
My question is if I write say "hello" at the bottom of the current page after writing the letter, the header and footer of the current page appears on the next page together with page number at the header.
thanks

Envelope printing problem in Word 2010

Posted: 30 May 2013 01:05 PM PDT

In Word 2010 after typing a letter, then highlighting the address I go to 'Mailings' then 'envelopes', then print.  For some reason the envelope now prints with very large text.  I have checked the font and it is on size 12.  Any suggestion as to what might have gone wrong.

How expand a 1.1.1 type heading down to the 1.1.1.1 level

Posted: 30 May 2013 01:01 PM PDT

I may have Word 10 but I know it is at least Word 7. (Word 7 is what it says when I press F1; the old Help > About way seems to no longer exist.)

 

 In an important (by now 172-page) document I've been working on for about three years, I have headings running from 1 to 1.1 to 1.1.1, and now I realize I will need a 1.1.1.1 heading. I almost certainly established my current headings based on Shauna Kelly's masterful and detailed explanation, but now as I tried to expand down to level 4 (i.e. 1.1.1.1) I ran into trouble, and messed up my 1.1.1 headings. Fortunately I was able to retrieve a recent copy of the document with the headings intact.

 

With my now septuagenarian brain, I would hate to start the process all over again step by step, for fear I would REALLY mess things up as I did already in my earlier attempt. If we assume (as I'm 99.99% certain we can), that my current headings were created in the list style recommended by Shauna, could someone please provide a series of simple steps for simply extending my present system down to level 4?

 

Many thanks!

Mail Merge using distribution group as From

Posted: 30 May 2013 09:15 AM PDT

I have Office 2007. I am using Word, Excel and Outlook.

When trying to do a mail merge I am able to get everything that I need with the exception of the From field in the email.

The email has my default email address in it.

I would like to use a group distribution in the From field.

Is there a way to do this?

Streamline mail merge and pdf creation

Posted: 30 May 2013 07:40 AM PDT

Hi everyone,

On a monthly basis I receive a report of hours contained in an excel spreadsheet where the data needs to populate a Word file in the form of a certificate. This is usually done using a mail merge from within Word. After the certificates are populated, I have to create a pdf of each file separately and then each of the certificates is emailed to a separate email address.

As I'm trying to streamline this process, I wondered whether anyone could offer any time-saving advice. I don't think I could save any time with the mail merge part, but it's very time consuming having to create a separate pdf file for each page in the merge results and then having to attach each file to a separate email. I wondered if a macro of some sort would help with this. Is it possible to click a button attached to a macro and have each page of the mail merge results create a separate pdf and then attach it to an email? Maybe I'm asking too much here but just thought I'd run it past everyone in case there is in fact some time saving function that I'm missing out on.

Really appreciate any advice.

In the "page layout" section of word, A5 is no longer given as an option under "page size." Why

Posted: 30 May 2013 04:31 AM PDT

As above, when I open the "page layout" option of word, I can no longer choose "A5" under "page size.
What has gone wrong with my "Word" program and how an I put it right?

NUMPAGES defaults to one when document saved.

Posted: 30 May 2013 03:50 AM PDT

I have a document with a first and subsequent footer. When I save this to the LAN the field NUMPAGES reverts to 1 when in fact I have 9 pages. It carries on as it should for page 2 onwards.
