Microsoft Word - VBA to switch between User Names?

VBA to switch between User Names?

Posted: 28 May 2013 02:28 AM PDT

Hi there,

I am administrating documents using track changes to display changes that I make and changes that come from other sources. I am making all the changes and my User name is displayed.

I would like to use a different user name for the "external changes", I know change of user name can be done manually, but it will be tedious going back and forth.

So is there a way to make script to switch between my user name and a custom one to apply for external changes?

 

Inputs much appreciated!

How do you interline two paragraphs?

Posted: 27 May 2013 06:44 PM PDT

Hello, I want to show a translation between the lines of the original text.

For example I want these two paragraphs shown on alternate lines:

Les 27 pays membres de l'Union européenne sont finalement parvenus à s'entendre, lundi soir à Bruxelles. Au terme d'une journée de négociations, les ministres des affaires étrangères européens ont décidé de lever l'embargo sur les armes pour les rebelles syriens.
The 27 member countries of the European Union have finally come to an understanding this Monday evening in Brussels. At the end of a day of negotiations, the foreign affairs ministers of Europe decided to lift the embargo on arms for Syrian rebels.

like so:

-Les 27 pays members de l'Union européenne sont finalement
-The 27 member countries of the European Union have finally
parvenus à s'entendre, lundi soir à Bruxelles. Au terme d'une
come to an understanding this Monday evening in Brussels.
journée de négociations, les ministres des affaires étrangères...
At the end of a day of negotiations, the foreign affairs ministers...

Is it possible? I prefer not to manually create new lines as I want it to automatically adjust where the lines break based on upon text size & document width (just like normal paragraphs). So if the document gets wider, I want "come" to append to "finally", and "parvenus" to append to "finalement".

Thank you for your help

exit Track Changes fails

Posted: 27 May 2013 12:28 PM PDT

I am using the latest version of Word in Office 365. In a single one of my many documents, the Tract Changes feature seems permanently activated. When I open the document, a vertical line appears to the right of the text, with a large empty space further to the right (the reviewing pane?). I can toggle the Track Changes icon off, then select No mark-up, and the line and space disappear. I then save the document, in the hope that the vertical line and space won't reappear when I next open the document. But they do and when I print the document, without making any changes, the page has the same line and wasted space. Help, please!

I can only see the top 2/3 of my fractional equations. How can I enlarge it?

I am trying to enter equations.  Some of them require multiple lines.  It cuts it off if I use a bigger font or have multiple lines (rows) in an equation.

Changing dates with Macros in Word

Posted: 27 May 2013 01:02 AM PDT

Hello, I have 2 questions:

 

- Is it possible to add 3 months to the current date and display it with a macro?

- Is it possible to let the date notation language differ per document? (For example, on an english offer the month will be 'May' instead of

'Mei' in the Dutch offer.)

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Kind regards,

Tjarco van Overbeek

Mail merge in Word 2010 with calculation result from Excel

Posted: 24 May 2013 08:11 AM PDT

I have an Excel worksheet that has the results of a survey. There are cells in which the survey results are calculated as a percentage (5 out of 10 respondents said "Excellent" or 50%, so the cell shows 50%)

There are different sections of the survey, and I need to send the results from each section to a different person in a customized email. I was hoping to do this via mail merge, but I can only get so far, because the cell where the percentage is shown isn't in a matching field.

Across the top I have the headers (Survey Section Leader) First Name > Last Name > Email > Section Name >Very Helpful > Not Helpful >Total Respondents > % Very Helpful > % Not Helpful

What I can't do is figure out how to insert, say, Row3 ColumnJ data into the merged document as a field. So I can have the message say at this point "In your <<Section Name>> <<R3CJ>> of respondents indicated <<Very Helpful>>."

Do I have this set up totally the wrong way? Am I trying to combine info (individual cells into mail merge) that shouldn't be combined? Will this nightmare ever end?

Any help  would be greatly appreciated.

When I try to print envelopes using Word2013, it runs the envelopes through without printing

Posted: 22 May 2013 07:04 PM PDT

Once it runs the envelopes through printing on them, if there is paper loaded in the printer, it will print on the paper what was suppose to be on the envelope. This printing is so far out of position it wouldn't be on the envelope.

word 2013 table messup

Posted: 22 May 2013 06:30 PM PDT

Normal tables, if you insert a table. If you type past the boundaries of the default box, then the box will automaticly extend to fit just one more letter. If you type in one more letter, then it will make room for another letter, and so on. I accidently did something to change that. Instead now, if I type to a point, then the box will extend to a TAB's worth, so I only fill about half of the table box with text when it extends. It will also shrink all the other boxe's vertical boundries. I don't know if I pressed something, accidently clicked a button on the pad, or what. I also don't know if my laptop type is effected it. I have a Toshiba Satillite L955, for those of you interested

 

P.S. "TAB's worth" refers to the space you create when you hit the TAB button
