Bizarre behavior of Word in Office 2010 installed as a virtual machine

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 10:14 AM PDT

Hello,

I have Windows 7 installed as a virtual machine in VM Ware Fusion, in my MacBook Pro. I also installed Office 2010. Mostly, it's fine except for a strange issue: I cannot get the @ symbol to appear in Word. On the other hand, it appears in Excel and in PowerPoint. This has everyone puzzled in our IT department. It also has VMWare completely stymied. We have tried everything, but everything, that we could think of with no results. 

Would anyone have an idea of what this may be?

Here are some technical details that may be needed:

- Computer: MacBook Pro notebook running on Mountain Lion
- VM Ware Fusion v6, Windows 7 as virtual machine
- Office 2010 Professional in Windows
- Keyboard: Spanish (Mexico)-Latin America (same keyboard setup through Office. Please attachment)

Many thanks,

Emile

PS: Sorry, forgot to add that the command I use to produce the @ is alt+control

Office Word Web app - cannot copy/paste from document back to iPad app

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 08:05 AM PDT

Hi All,   Today I tried using the Microsoft Word Web App on my iPad today on Wifi. 

All went fine, except when I tried to copy some text from my document in to another app on the iPad - Notes.   

Nothing happened....! No text pasted across. 

It's as if there's a separate clipboard for the Office Web App, and for the iPad, and never the twain shall meet. Anybody else experienced this?   A bug, or a "feature"? Do we think it's ....

A Safari issue 
A web app issue 
An iPad issue 
An issue specific to my iPad in particular (i.e., needs a reset or something)?   

Be interested in thoughts/feedback on this issue.   

Would love a fix of-course!   Paul

Office 2013 Document won't open

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 07:42 AM PDT

New HP Computer (OS Windows 7).  Newly purchased Office 2013 ( installed two days ago)  Created my first Word 2013 document this morning, with several postings from internet.  Saved the document and closed the internet connection.  Attempted to open the document to edit and it wouldn't open.  Requested to ID the program to open it, but Office 2013 wasn't on the list.  Document opened in Wordpad 2010 (which isn't listed in the Control Panel software nor in the programs listings.  What gives?  Is there a stealth program on this computer?  Will the problem persist?

How can i change the formatting of hyperlinked cross references?

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 07:15 AM PDT

I am using Office 2007 and I am adding cross references in the text of my document to headings, figures, flowcharts etc (not footnotes, don't use them). I want my cross references to be hyperlinks (which they are) but I want them to show up as hyperlinks so people reading my document will know they are hyperlinks and that to click on them will take them to that section.

 

So for example:

the process of work involves several stages (see flowchart 1)  where flowchart 1 shows up in a different format and only that bit.

 

I have tried several methods listed on http://wordfaqs.mvps.org/formatcrossreferences.htm this website but none seem to do the job satisfactorily, either the formatting doesn't get preserved when I update the document, or it changes the formatting of the entire paragraph not just the cross reference, or it will only change cross references to headings not figures or flowcharts or a weird combination of the three options. I can't find a style for the in text cross reference in the style list.

 

I am not extensively proficient in code and computational language but I can follow basic steps, can anyone help?

Omit a Header from TOC in MS Word 2010

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 07:06 AM PDT

Hello,

I have a MS Word 2010 document with extensive use of headers and multilevel lists.
I want to omit certain items from the table of contents.  However, I can't change the style of the text, because the multilevel list will be compromised.  I would like to be able to update the TOC later without having to manually delete the items each time.  Any ideas?

Essentially this is what I would like to do:
1.  Heading 1
1.1  Heading 2 (keep in TOC)
1.2  Heading 2 (keep in TOC)
2.  Heading 1
3.  Heading 1
3.1  Heading 2 (omit from TOC)
3.2  Heading 2 (omit from TOC)
4.  Heading 1

Thanks!

Indents and Bullets for Microsoft Word 2010

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 06:40 AM PDT

Half of my document is indented and formatted properly but the after will no let me indent the bullets. They promote and demote but, the text doesn't move and when it finally does-its spread on several lines of the document. On the first proper half of the document, if I try to indent a bullet point-it works but, if I undone the bullet point and retry it will not.

I have already done the autoformat as you type fix and it has not worked.

Track Changes colors changed when converting

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 06:28 AM PDT

Dears,

 

I have an issue which I cannot determine the source: Word or Acrobat?

 

I have several Word 2007 documents that I need to send as a PDF. These documents contain changes with the colors red and blue. I need to send these documents as a pdf file. When I convert them to pdf these colors change to the default black color.

 

I have an add-in which helps to convert these documents enabled.

 

For Acrobat I'm using the latest Acrobat Standard.

 

How to convert my documents (without using the print options, this option removed all the links) to pdf without losing the colors.

 

thank you for your help and tips.

Microsoft Office 2010 click to run

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 05:59 AM PDT

My neighbour has been using their laptop for a couple of years - Windows 7 is the OS.  He uses Word to create invoices for his business and we created a template at the time, all he does is double click the last invoice, edit it and saves as a new name.

 

He attempted this yesterday and got a pop up -

 

I already purchase Office 2010 - option to Activate

Go online to Purchase Office - option to Purchase

Try Office free for a Limited time - option to Try

 

The only Activation key he has it the one on the bottom of the Dell laptop - that wasn't a valid key apparently.

 

We searched for winword.exe and it wasn't found.

 

Discovered a variety of questions on the subject e.g.

 

It is write protected for a reason on Q:

 

Suggestions to uninstall and install MSI based version of the Product.

 

This household only use the laptop for email, google searches and the invoice creation via Word - we aren't talking installing Products or Windows Explorer browsing and deletions attempted.

 

We found a workaround for the time being to use Wordpad (it really is a simple text based invoice) and that will get the bills out to the Customers and money into the bank, however.....

 

Question is.............  which on the click to run forums that they are not seeing an answer to...

 

How come for 2 years they have been able to use this Product and NOW it just stops!?

 

They do not know anything about going into Control Panel and Program Features or even Computer to browse, he logs in, clicks Documents, selects a document and off he goes.  That's about the extent the head of the household uses and once complete, saves as and prints!

 

His wife only Google searches and checks/sends emails.

 

Anyone who could give a clue to reason works one day and not the next (short of deinstallation?)  - It still shows in the Program List.

 

Can I prevent hackers from OPENING MS Word?

Can I password protect ALL documents; i.e. prevent hackers from OPENING MS Word?

Prevent tables from merging

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 04:37 AM PDT

Hi,

I am using tables to frame and hold figures with associated text in a technical report

The table is roughly half a portrait page in height (full width) and has two rows:
  • The top row has a single column
  • The 2nd (bottom) row has two columns
The single cell in the top row is designed to contain a figure
The first cell in the second row contains a figure caption and the second cell contains a company logo

I have added this table into the quick part gallery so that when I want to insert a figure I can quickly add the picture frame which subsequently automatically updates the sequential figure caption numbering

The problem I have is when I want to insert two figures one beneath another. Because I am using tables when I insert a table one beneath another the two tables automatically merge into a single 4 row table whereas I want two separate 2 row tables for my two figures...

Can this automatic merging of tables be prevented?

nb. I have managed to do this by simply inserting an extra blank paragraph at the end of the first table before adding a second table but is there a better way of doing this?

Thanks

Alex

Microsoft Office 2013 Keeps Crashing when Bullet List is Inserted and when Adjusting Table's Column Size

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 03:49 AM PDT

As per title, I have experienced this for the past month. A recent issue, I didn't have this problem when I first started using Office 2013 back in February 2013. Only in early September that Word keeps crashing whenever I inserted a bullet list and aligned it. Also, when I created bullets in a table and tried adjusting the column's size, Word crashes immediately upon doing so.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Microsoft Office, twice/thrice. I have performed a clean install of Windows 8 and reinstall of Office 2013 yet the problem persists. I tried deleting the ListGal.dat file, as someone had proposed this solution in past threads, but it has no effect whatsoever. Since last night's fresh install of Windows 8 + Office 2013, Word has crashed 41 times. Below is the details of the crash report. Hope this will be useful to anyone out there.

Hyperlinks in Word pointing to Excel files dont work

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 02:05 AM PDT

Hi!

When clicking a hyperlink in Word 2007 pointing to an Excel file I get an error message "An unexpected error ocurred". I list the things I have tried to resolve the problem:

* I tried different locations and different files, doesn work from any word file to any Excel file wherever its located (on network, locally and so on)
* Repaired Office 2007
* Tried running both Excel and Word in Safe Mode.
* Reset internet options in IE (with full clear of all cached data and so on)
* Tried adding a hyperlink base
* Reassociated xlsx files with Excel
* Verified that the "Ignore other applications using DDE" is not checked in Excel
* Tried changing the standard browser

Excel files can be opened manually from explorer or from within Excel ofc. Hyperlinks to other Word documents, Powerpoint files, pictures, PDF document and so on works perfectly.

Office 2007 Standard running on Windows 7

Font Size of the rtf data changes when RTF file is rendered onto the 2007 Word Doc

Posted: 26 Sep 2013 09:53 PM PDT

We have a word based VB application and a commaddin that connects to the word as we start the application. 

Initially the rtf data is extracted out of the document and saved to the back end. Below is the piece of rtf data when the rtf is extracted from the document which clearly depicts fs20 (Font size in half-points) which is 10.

\par }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs20\insrsid11486703\charrsid5844535 Testing 10

The actual issue is when we render the rtf data on to the word document  where-in the font-size 10 changes to the default font-size 12. Below data clearly shows the fs20 is missing while rendering and the font size is set to the document default i.e 12.

\par }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid3698700\charrsid1319285 Testing 10

Please note that this issue exists only on word2007.


Thanks/Saurav.

Printing multiple mailmerge documents with a single mailmerged cover letter

Posted: 26 Sep 2013 06:13 PM PDT

I am using a Word document to mailmerge from an Excel 2007 spreadsheet

The Word document merges a single form and a covering letter per address

I do not know VBA or how to stop a blank cover letter being printed

What I need to do is print variable numbers of forms per address but only one covering letter per address

e.g.

formA 1
formA 2
cover letter A

form B 1
cover letter B

formC 1
formC 2
formC 3
cover letter C

A B C are unique addresses and 1 2 3 are also unique references

I am looking for a way to set a variable and check if the next record has the same reference if it does it prints another form 

if it does not match a cover letter is printed and the variable set to the new reference and a form printed 

1. declare variable
2. set variable to record and print form
3. compare variable to record 2 if matching print form 2
4. if not matching print cover letter
5. set variable for record as per 2 and loop until all records are printed

An alternative would be to check for a flag in the Excel record and only print a cover letter if the flag is set

Could anyone advise the code , code structure or a workable method to do this please?

Large Headers

Posted: 26 Sep 2013 05:54 PM PDT

A document was composed using Word 2003 and then opened in Word 2010. Most Headers/Footers were OK through the document, however on 2 pages the header line was down the page and there was no way that I could move it. The header was empty on every page and changing the numbers in "Header from Top did not seem to work! Closing and deleting the header didn't work either. Any suggestions on what caused this and how to solve it welcomed.

2010 Microsoft Problems

Posted: 26 Sep 2013 04:51 PM PDT

I do not know whether it is my computer or the fact that my software for Microsoft 2010 is out of date or something but I got it off of a disk (can't remember how I got it but either way its installed on my laptop. It has been working fine nothing bizarre had happened up until about a week or so ago when I opened the Libraries part of my computer where I can click on music, documents etc. and see all of my stuff and certain documents instead of having the blue symbol next to it with the "W" it was orange. When I tried to click on them it asks if I want to activate Microsoft 2010, try it for a few days and another option like it isn't already on my computer and I can't get to these certain documents unless I go in another way. But the crazy part is that there are only about half of the documents on here that have the orange symbol next to it and the others don't. My question would be how could this have happened if you do know and what can I do about it? Do I have to reinstall all over again or what? 
Thanks!

Whenever I leave the mouse cursor in the text space of a word document, a bubble automatically pops up to say "chart area." This is REALLY ANNOYING, completely unhelpful, and I'd like to turn off this feature. How do I do that?
