Page Numbering in Word 2010

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 02:44 PM PST

I've been asked to list page numbers with this format:  1-1, 3-1, 4-2, etc.  I get this message:

 

There is no chapter to include in the caption or page number. To apply chapter number use the Multilevel List button on the Home tab and select numbering scheme that is linked to the Heading styles.

 

I've tried the Multilevel List Button but I don't know what numbering scheme that is linked to a heading style. 

 

Could you anyone help with this?

 

 

 

 

 

How to Clear Workgroup Templates Setting in File Locations Dialog

Can I have a password for a Microsoft Office 2010 Folder

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 01:55 PM PST

I would like to add security to an entire folder, but when I right click it doesn't allow a password, but instead gives alternatives like "administrator," etc.  I know how to put passwords on an individual Microsoft Word document, but the problem here is I have several PDF documents, in Nitro Pro  Reader, and I don't know how to put a password on each of them, which is why I'm asking about just putting a password on the entire folder; however, if someone know how to password protect these PDFs that would be great, too.

Thanks

WordArt 2010 Shadow Outline

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 11:51 AM PST

I am trying to reproduce the Word 2003 WordArt Gallery using Word 2010 WordArt Text effects. One problem that is arising is that in the classic WordArt, the Shadows do not have apparent outlines. With Word 2010, all of the text shadows I've been able to reproduce do have an outline, at least when the text, itself has an outline. Here is an example:

The top WordArt is from Word 2003's engine. The bottom one is from Word 2010.



In the Word 2003 version the shadow either has no outline or it is the same color as the shadow. In Word 2010 the shadow does have an outline when the text has an outline. This isn't a huge problem but it would be nice to reproduce the Gallery using the Word 2010 graphics engine so that I could use the Word 2010 drawing tools to fiddle with them.

I plan on adding the Word 2010 analogs to my WordArt gallery.

I have Office 2013, need themes (Austin) from Office 2010 for a college course

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 11:08 AM PST

I am using Windows 7 and have Office 2013 Professional.  I am posting this hereto help others using versions of Office 2013 or Office 365 Home Premium / University in their course work.  The only reason I migrated to Office 2013 from Office 2007 was it was required for my initial COSC classe.  Imagine my feelings of dismay (read pizzed-off) when signing up for the Winter term online required course for 'Advanced Computer Applications' and discovering that the course curriculum is based on Office 2010!

I contacted the instructor and relayed my dilemma but he assured me that I could complete the course using Office 2013 and he would allow for the minor differences between versions as long as I followed all the course materials. BTW, a large shout-out to Mr. Alinen & THANK YOU!

Still, I bugged me that I could not replicate or make my assignments match the visuals in the text book and using Office 2013 online templates yielded no results so I began to search online, using the MS answers website, for any hints that someone had encountered this and provided a possible solution.  I did discover the following thread that was addressed primarily to a Office 2013 Powerpoint issue provided here:

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_365hp-powerpoint/i-have-powerpoint-2013-need-theme-austin-from/f6234b2d-7e98-49f0-b3ec-0528f76d65cc

I have cut and pasted my solution here as well:

"I was able to download the zip files for PP presentations that John SR Wilson had posted.  Using the function in Word 2013 of: Design tab/Themes/Custom/Browse for Themes, I was able to go to the directory/folder where I had saved the PP presentations and using 'Choose Theme or Themed Document' select the 'Austin' theme and apply it to the document I was working on for my course module."

By all means am I not a MS Office any version SME, but I'm posting this up to help anyone else who encounters these issues as well so there's a generic subject/title/thread they can look up on-line with a similar topic to point them in the right direction. 

Questions, Answers, Hints to help and Discussion are welcome to help pay it forward.

Regards and Good Luck to all!

Need Help: Microsoft Word 2007 and 2010 hangs when I open up this piece of Table RTF

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 08:19 AM PST

The Table rows repeats infinitely and then Word hangs.

What do I to prevent this and why is this happening?

Is it possible to adjust the text in Microsoft Word 2010 so that it goes in a circular direction?

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 07:44 AM PST

Hi, I'm creating a clockface for a project i'm doing and was wondering if it was possible to adjust the text direction so that it goes in a circular direction for the clock face, I've had a look at the text direction settings and all I've been able to find is 3 different directions either up, dowm, or normal.

 

I'm sure I remember seeing a setting to be able to write text/numbers in a circular direction in an earlier version of Word, or it may have been a different program, i'm not too sure.

 

Thanks for any help given.

Office keeps freezing up on me - Office University Subscription- Word is the worst

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 07:33 AM PST

Especially when I open a new document, but often-times throughout use of the program in question - I get freezes and the occasional crash. I have a BRAND NEW Dell Professional Grade 14R Touch Laptop with Intel i5, 8GB Ram and 750GB Hard drive. When I am having these difficulties, often there is no other major program running, sometimes IE or Firefox or Chrome. Occasionally I will have Excel and Word open simultaneously, but it doesn't matter. Sometimes these freezes can go on for 5-10 minutes. While this is happening, I am free to use other programs, so it isn't a entire system crash or freeze. Anyone else having these problems?
I did recently upgrade to Windows 8.1, could that be the problem? I have checked my Windows and Office upgrade areas and am current with all.
Help please....
Thanks,

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 07:21 AM PST

Hi all,

I have a template that I am using in Word 2010, I am trying to acesss on the Insert Tab, Quick Parts, Document Property.  This is not available in my template! Does anyone know that the reason this may be.

 

The templates were created in Word 2003 - can this possible be the answer?

 

Also if I start to use placeholders in a template in 2010, if it is then opened in 2003 will it still be compatible.

endnote numbering problems

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 06:22 AM PST

I have a long document separated into 17 chapters. The end notes for each chapter begin with 1.

 

in the middle of one list of endnotes, the numbering begins at one again so that chapter's endnotes begin 1-25, then 1 again.

 

What am I doing wrong so the endnotes are continuous WITHIN a particular chapter?

Normal paragraph showing up as TOC2

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 05:34 AM PST

Wrapping text around an entire page

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 04:49 AM PST

Hi all.

I have searched for a couple of hours for an answer to this question but have had no luck on any of the sites I checked.

I am writing a document which requires images and figures to be on separate pages to text. That is, I can have a page of text where I refer to a figure, but that figure must be on its own on the next page. I have tried playing around with various breaks and margin tricks but to no avail. I want to try and wrap the text around the whole page so it flows naturally to the next available page after the figures. I want it to look something like this:

1. Page full of text with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2

2. Page with Figure 1 and Figure 2

3. Page which continues original text

Any suggestions?

Many thanks.

Word File reverting to 'read only, every so often.

Posted: 11 Nov 2013 01:10 AM PST

I have a file which I regularly update, which is fine. However, every so often, maybe after 20 saves, it declares my file 'Read Only' and I cannot just 'Save' so I change the name, e.g. file-fred to file-fred-V2, then V3 next time and so on. This is not a life-changing issue but why does it happen and what can I do to stop it? It doesn't seem to happen to other (smaller) files. In fact I've been filing an associated Powerpoint file containing the graphics for the Word file for absolutely ages without this problem. Main Word file is c. 15MB, Powerpoint one c. 1.5Mb.

No top margin shown in Print Layout view

Posted: 10 Nov 2013 08:26 PM PST

Win 7, Word 2003 using Print Layout view.

For some reason known only to itself, Word has suddenly decided to display a new document with the cursor at the very top of the page, ie. no top margin shown (even though Page Setup is set to 1" margins all round). The side margins are shown correctly.

This is extremely irritating—I want to see what the document looks like as I type, which is why I prefer the Print Layout view.

Would someone please advise how to correct this aberrant behaviour and make it show the top margin as well as the side ones?

Many thanks.

How to raise old-style footnote numbers in the text?

Posted: 10 Nov 2013 04:49 PM PST

Word 2013 has a remarkably precise, reliable and comprehensive Advanced Find and Replace engine. Word doesn't allow my font,* which has both Lining and Old Style number forms, to use the latter as footnote indicators. I want the indicators to be Old Style numbers because that style is used everywhere else in the document, including the footnote numbers when they're used with the footnotes. This is despite the menu choice being made. In other contexts they're allowed. Yet Word will allow a "Replace All" of the Lining numbers by Old Style numbers, and it happens almost instantly.

But there's a problem. The Old Style numbers are situated lower than Lining numbers used as footnote indicators in the text. They're much harder to find, since they're both smaller to begin with and aren't nearly as high as letter ascenders and quote marks, whereas Lining numbers are naturally larger and are positioned to overtop ascenders and quote marks.

Is there a way to raise the height of footnote indicators? I'm excluding specifying a larger point size, or bolding them.

_____
*It may just be my font. Microsoft's flagship font, Gabriola, behaves as expected in footnote references when Old Style numerals are turned on. They're also plenty high enough.

Office 2013 crashes

Posted: 10 Nov 2013 04:36 PM PST

My word 2013 crashes as soon as I click on spelling & grammar and my excel crashes whenever I try to open a xlsx file I have downloaded. So many bugs and very annoying considering I am a student who has paid for broken software.

Neither apps will open on safe mode either.

AS$ File - URGENT NEED HELP!

Posted: 10 Nov 2013 04:19 PM PST

I have been working on a college computer that logs off on its own after ~20 minutes of inactivity.

I started a new MS Word document, and worked on it for several hours, whilst having other docs open too.

I never saved anything, and left for like half an hour.

Well, MS Word recovered all of the files except for the one I had been working on. After a manual search, I came up with a AS$ document that I think may contain my information, but MS Word cannot open it. When I open it in wordpad, all I get is symbols and gibberish.

What happened? Do I have any chance of recovery?

I tried all of the conventional recovery routes, but cannot find a .doc or .awd or whatever file.

HELP!

Thanks.

Mail Merge Problem in listing variable number of records per Vendor.

Posted: 10 Nov 2013 04:02 PM PST

Working on an e-mail merge. Excel data consists of a hundred Vendors, each with a variable number of order records, some with 1 order record, others with 20 or more records.  The last order record of each vendor has a field called "Total" and has both the last order detail and the aggregate totals of all prior order records. 

 

I want each e-mail to contain a list of each order followed by the total. After that, I want to perform the next 99 e-mails. I am unable to list more than one order record unless I create a template with 20 empty orders with a «Next Record If» <> "Total

 

Vendors with less than 20 orders are replicated up to 19 times.  I can't use Directory since it won't e-mail.

 

Help!

Run-in sidehead in TOC

Posted: 10 Nov 2013 09:36 AM PST

How can I separate the formatting of a lead-in heading (APA level 3 onward) from the text?  The heading looks fine but when I try to create a TOC, the entire paragraph is included in the heading:

 

2.4.1 Individual level factors.  According to Bhana & Petersen (2009) risk and protective factors at the individual level are physical and psychological, which "may be a product of genetic and and/or socio-environmental factors" (p. 58).

 

The heading should just be '2.4.1 Individual level factors.' 14
