How do I remove the extra space created by the paragraph mark.

Posted: 29 Aug 2013 01:11 PM PDT

How do I remove the extra space added to the end of a line created by the paragraph mark? For example I want to create a bar code in MS Word 2010 but the bar code has 5 characters. When I highlight that line to change the font, it ends up highlighting 6 characters; the 5 I wanted plus the space at the end. I don't want the space at the end. Can this be done? I've attached a picture so you can see the space that I'm talking about. Once again I just want to be able to highlight my 5 characters without that extra space to change the font and continue working on this project.  Thanks.

How can I remove spaces between rows of tables in Microsoft Word

Posted: 29 Aug 2013 11:02 AM PDT

I am building templates using cells to guide text entry, and when I am building these documents, every time I try to add rows to my table, I am seeing very large gabs between rows.

When I insert new rows in the table, my new row and some existing rows jump to a whole new page as if I had inserted some kind of section break, even though I have not.

I've looking into layouts, formatting, and any setting I can find my way into, but nothing seems to work.

Does anyone have any idea how I can get rid of these awful spaces between cell rows in my table?  They cause my Rows to jump to the top of a whole new page.

Thanks for any help anyone can provide

Linking headings within same document which automatically updates upon changes.

Posted: 29 Aug 2013 09:54 AM PDT

I want to link a heading within the same document which automatically updates when heading changes. Suppose in 2.4 it says "refer to 8.5" and if 8.1 is deleted then in 2.1 it should say "refer to 8.4" automatically. Thanks in advance!

I have tried hyperlink and bookmark but they do not automatically update upon changes.

When creating old barcode scanner sheets to Word 2010, a O (capital O?) is inserted after slash

Posted: 29 Aug 2013 08:56 AM PDT

We are currently in the process of updating our barcode separator sheets, and moving from Word 2003 to 2010.  When we type it in word 2010 the 'O' doesn't appear/show.  However, when we scan the printed new 2010 version, an 'O' appears right after the slash.

 

Example:

 

what is typed in *PREDEL/REVISIT*

 

What is displayed when scanned  PREDEL/OREVISIT

 

As you can see, it is adding an 'O' for some reason.

 

Any ideas??

Corrupted Word document (file size reduction and unable to open /word/document.xlm)

Posted: 29 Aug 2013 03:48 AM PDT

Hi,

The document that I was working on for several days became corrupted during saving. Last day, I hibernated the system and reopened it the next day to continue working and when I last save the document size reduced to ~700kb from ~6mb and Word was unable to open it. Whem I try to re-open the document following message pops up;

 

"Unexpected end of input
Location: Part: /word/document.xlm, Line: 2, Column: 12519"

 

As described on several webpages, I changed the extension to *.zip (and also tried *.rar) to get access to the xml files inside to alter  designated lines, however the document.xml cannot be opened. I was able to rescue only few of the figures inside the document.

 

In the autosave folder, there seems to be no backup of the document although autosave was on. Furthermore, I did a deep scan using a several commercial and freeware programs to see whether there are files to rescue and this did not yield any thing. Moreover, the system scan did not find any bad sectors on the hard drive.

 

Could you please recommend me any other solutions?


If such a system exists, would it be possible to contact Microsoft tech support directly for this matter by sending the document?

 

Many thanks!

Inserted text goes AWOL

Posted: 29 Aug 2013 12:26 AM PDT

I am trying out the technique of replacing the concept of a Master Document with inserting sub-documents (as links) into a main document.

However, when I insert another document much of it goes missing.  Firstly, the text appears overwriting the header:

 

 

 

You can just see the header (in grey) in between the two top paragraphs.  Then it overwrites the footer and does not continue on the next page.

 

 

You can just make out the page number above the words ... only used ...

 

What is causing this and how do I fix it?

 

Thanks

Posted: 29 Aug 2013 12:02 AM PDT

Hi guys, 

I am wondering if any of you ran into the following problem and by any chance knows how to solve it. Thanks in advance. 

I tried MS 2007, 2010, 2013, and following Symptoms apply to all versions:
1)  when I open and close MS Word, a dialogue box pops up and says "sub or function not defined" 
2) copy and paste functions don't work, whenever I try to copy or past, the message in 1) pops up again

It has been bothering me in the past couple month and I am wondering if anyone can save me from re-installing the entire windows system! 

Thanks again!

Ryan

Items not being found and replaced

Posted: 28 Aug 2013 11:25 PM PDT

My Word document consists of contact data collected from websites.  These are realtors I am working with currently.  Most of the contacts have the two digit state code, another three letters, the number sign (#), then the license number.  How do I delete this entire bit of text starting with the state code?    What I have tried is entering the state code and three letters and the asterisk in the Find dialog, in the replacement box nothing.  Ex. CA DRE*. I get the message back saying no replacements have been made.  What do I need to do?

Cannot locate where the file location is for 'My Templates', word 2010. C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates does not take me to the right location

Posted: 28 Aug 2013 09:00 PM PDT

A long time ago I added some macro templates I made specifically for my company. I saved them in the file location where when an associate selected My Template they would activate the dialogue box which listed the templates saved in that location.

I've researched this all afternoon and the file path which is most commonly mentioned (C:\Users...... Roaming\Microsoft\Templates) is not the correct location. 

Please see the printscreen below which will detail the location where I want the folder. 

All advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

Windows XP Pro SP3 - Word 2003 - Slow when clicking File > Open

Posted: 28 Aug 2013 03:38 PM PDT

I have a number of machines still running Word 2003 on XP and for some reason when I click on File and Open, the dialog box takes a minute or two to open up.  I believe this may have to do with being on a domain, but I don't know what.  I've found a number of articles with great ideas, but nothing has fixed this issue.  Any ideas would be welcome.

Thanks
