Critical Update for Office 2008

Posted: 17 Aug 2008 03:39 AM PDT

I've noticed that response from MS servers has been exceptionally slow
today. Perhaps you'll have better luck later on.

product key confusion

Office is not an Apple product so they can not help you.

I suggest you first try to work with the store where you purchased your
product. Show them you're missing the Product Key and ask that they
allow you to trade for a copy of Office that's complete. If necessary,
request that they open a package so they can compare it to yours.

If they will not help you then contact Microsoft (it's not that bad).
Start here <http://support.microsoft.com/select/?target=hub> and follow
the links to get to the appropriate E-mail addresses and phone numbers
for your location and product.

Provided you can show proof of purchase then they should be willing to
provide you with replacement Product Keys.

Know beforehand that you're allowed two free product support calls. If
they request you pay first you can refuse. If they insist on payment
upfront then you should be refunded (or not charged) once they
understand the problem.

Hope this helps!

line spacing in Excel

Posted: 16 Aug 2008 11:53 AM PDT

As I said, I don't have X available but if you want to send me a copy of the
file I'll be happy to check it over. Depending on what I can find there are
others who may able to compare it using Excel X.

The the title of the Alignment & Spacing section in the FP is a misnomer -
there is nothing there that has to do with spacing at all (other than
Horizontally by way of Indentation), let alone Line Spacing for text. The
only thing that influences spacing between lines of text in a cell is
Vertical> Justify, but it offers no actual line spacing control.

Fonts have Leading values designed into them which determine the line
spacing which defaults to what most people refer to as single spaced. The
standard is 120% of the Font size. Word processing programs, Desktop
Publishing programs, etc. normally provide control over line spacing, but
Excel does not.

Based on that plus the fact that your Office X installation may be using a
different version of Verdana than what's used by Office 2008 it may very
well make the difference. I don't claim to have the explanation, I'm just
exploring possibilities :-) Run Font Book to see if you have duplicate of
Verdana. Ruse Edit> Resolve Duplicates if there are any & see if that makes
any difference.

Both of these questions are already answered in this thread - in fact, the
message immediately above your "reply".

Office Mac: 2008 Home Edition and Remote desktop

I believe the OP may be referring to Remote Desktop Connection.

Microsoft does make a Remote Desktop Connection client. You can download
it from Microsoft's website:

This will *not* work with Remote Web Workspace. That is a Windows-only
solution.

Hope this helps!

Installing Office2008

Posted: 14 Aug 2008 07:35 PM PDT

Copied from the iMac page on the Apple site:

SuperDrive.

iMac doesn¹t have a disc tray. CDs and DVDs slide right into the
slot-loading SuperDrive.

Office trips on firewall every time app opens

Posted: 14 Aug 2008 04:25 PM PDT

Glad you got it sorted - and thanks for posting the solution :-) It stands
to reason since AutoUpdate is a separate app & is typically activated by the
other Office apps on launch - at least if it's set to automatically update.

Consider the top level of your hard drive the "root". When you
double-click its icon to open it you'll see Applications, Library,
System and Users folders.

You want the Applications folder that you see at the "root" of your hard
drive. You may possibly have one or more Applications folders that
you've created yourself in other locations but you want the top-level
Applications folder.

Hope this helps!
