how do I preview fonts all at once. without have to select each one.

Posted: 08 Sep 2013 02:35 PM PDT

I would like to see what a font looks like without having to select each and every one. In other words I would like to see what the font looks like as I scroll down the list with out selecting a font. If I am looking for a special looking font I would have to start at the top and click each one just to see what it looks like. This would be very time consuming. There must be a way to see what they all look like then select which one you like. Does anyone else know how to do this?

Word 2007 Copy and Paste/Clipboard Issue

Posted: 08 Sep 2013 05:31 AM PDT

If I copy text, highlight then right click and select copy, from a webpage or other document, then open Word and paste, I get a large black irregular shaped dot as a result; no text. If I open Word first, then copy and paste, everything is normal.

 

This issue has been going on for some time. I don't recall when it started. There must be some conflict between text that exists on the clipboard before you open the Word application that doesn't exist if you copy to the clipboard after the Word application is started. 

 

My OS is Win 7 Pro x64 SP1.

 

Is there a fix for this issue?

Unable to open Word 13 documents

Posted: 08 Sep 2013 05:14 AM PDT

I have Windows 8 on my new laptop on which I installed MS Office Professional Plus 2013 at the outset.  When I try to open documents, either those transferred from my USB stick from my previous laptop, or those created on this laptop and this version of MS Office Word, I am given the notification that there is a problem with the file's contents and that "the file is corrupt and cannot be opened".   I have been backing up my files onto a new USB stick and am only able to access my documents from this stick.  I have attempted to overwrite files on the hard drive with the files on my USB stick and have been able to access them from the hard drive for a short period of time, but it is not long before I get the corrupt notification.  Is it the case that MS Office is not compatible with Windows 8?  

Any advice would be very much appreciated.  Thank you.

Mail Merge - To a Word Table on a Single Page

Posted: 07 Sep 2013 10:15 PM PDT

I am trying to Mail Merge multiple records using data extracted from an Excel 2010 Spreadsheet into the body of a table in Word 2010.

 

I want the records to "list" in the Word table on a single page, but everything I try ends up with 1 page and 1 table per record (multiple pages) instead of all on the same page in the same table.

 

Under the "Start Mail Merge", I have tried both Directory and Normal Word Document, but neither gives the outcome I'm trying to get.

 

Can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong, please?

 

Thanks!

Line Connector

Posted: 07 Sep 2013 07:56 PM PDT

Having problems with the line connector in that I can not get a line to attach to a shape / object. I'm using the following method in Word 2013.

Insert> Shapes> Rectangle 

I do this twice to create 2 rectangle on the page. To create a line, I do the following

Insert> Shapes> Elbow Connector (4th from the left under lines)

I hover my mouse over one of the rectangles but nothing happens, I see no boxes to attach it too and I can insert A line of any length, but it won't move with the shapes. If I move the shapes, the line stays where it is. I am sure I'm missing something silly, but going through all of the options I can't see anything obvious. Please help?

EDIT: I've gotten this to work in Excel, easily. If I try to copy / paste this into Word everything works except it doesn't maintain the line connection. Is this feature even applicable in Word 2013 still?

what is a php file and how can I open it

Posted: 07 Sep 2013 07:45 PM PDT

Hi, I have a file on my desktop, which I have apparently saved myself, but for the life of me, I can't remember what it is.   I think it might have to do with downloading pictures to or from my cell phone, but I am not sure. The file looks like a faded document, and at the bottom says: photo.php. I tried downloading some aps recommended by Windows 8. This opens it  but all I see there is a bunch of what I call gibberish.

 

I would like to know what does a php file usually refers to, and if there is a way to open it.

I also would like to know if there is a software I can use to change extension files, in photos, audio and videos. I use to use NHC, but that only worked on videos.

 

Not sure of category of topic, so I chose at random. Sorry

 

I have Windows 8, IE10, Office 2010 and AVG free,

 

Your help is much appreciated...Edie

I am creating number lines that show how to add and subtract. I would like an arrow the width of a line that I can bend between two points on a number line to show a jump from one number to another. The arrows that are that size are straight.

missing AppVIsvStream.dll file

Posted: 07 Sep 2013 04:11 PM PDT

I've tried opening an MS Word file, but am getting an error message that the AppVIsvStream.dll file file is missing.  This is probably due to running ARO registry cleaner but trying to reverse the changes has not helped.

Any suggestions?
