Microsoft Word - Where has the clip art gallery gone?

Microsoft Word - Where has the clip art gallery gone?

Where has the clip art gallery gone?

Posted: 30 Nov 2013 03:09 PM PST

I have always linked straight to the gallery from within a program, eg Word by clicking on the Clips online link.  Now when I click it all I get is the main office.com homepage but if I click on Images it does not take me to the gallery but to an article which is no help at all.

 

Where have all the images gone?

Microsoft Word 2013

Posted: 30 Nov 2013 02:38 PM PST

No matter what I try I cannot change the color of my text on the screen.   Using the font format command doesn't work - my font is still black.
I'd be most grateful for some help.

Separate headings for endnotes pages

Posted: 30 Nov 2013 11:51 AM PST

I've written a book with endnotes using World 2010 on a Windows 7 system. Following the directions of http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting/FootnoteFAQContent.htm#TextAfterNotes I successfully inserted sections following the endnotes pages. But I've had trouble with the header for the pages containing the endnotes.

The endnotes appeared immediately after the text of the final chapter. Since that would be confusing, I set the section containing the final chapter to "suppress endnotes" in Page Layout|Page Setup|Layout and then at the end of the chapter text inserted a Section Break (Odd Page) code. This moved the notes to the next odd page.

However, I have a running header on the odd-numbered [facing] pages that shows the name of the current chapter. Of course I take care that "Link to Previous" is unchecked for odd-page headers in the Header and Footer Tools|Design tab. But even so, the notes pages had the name of the last chapter, and their header was linked to its and could not be independently changed, which was not what I needed.  

I decided that I would try inserting an extra blank section between the end of the final chapter text and the notes pages. This was difficult because Word always makes what seem to be arbitrary changes in the Section Break codes in complicated situations involving several different codes. What I finally wound up with was:

--End of chapter text
--Section Break (Continuous) code
--Blank line
--Section Break (Continuous) code (I think this is unnecessary, but Word won't let me delete it.)
--Section Break (Odd Page) code
--Section Break (Continuous) code (I think this is unnecessary, but Word won't let me delete it.)
--"Notes" title
--Section Break (Odd Page) code
--endnotes pages
--New section in which to insert bibliography and end matter

Each of the sections up to the "Notes" title was set to "suppress endnotes". It was only immediately after the "Notes" title that I unchecked "suppress endnotes".

At the blank line, I inserted page breaks (not section breaks) until I got to an odd page. I edited its header to uncheck "Link to Previous". Then I deleted all of the page breaks, leaving me with a section having just a single blank line between the end of the last-chapter text and the "Notes" title section. Then in the endnotes pages I was able to change the odd-page header without affecting the header in the last chapter.

The next time, doing it from scratch and not having to fight with Word so much on changing Section Break codes, I would try the following order:

--End of chapter text
--Section Break (Continuous) code
--Blank line
--Section Break (Odd Page) code
--"Notes" title
--Section Break (Odd Page) code
--endnotes pages
--New section in which to insert bibliography and end matter

I'd be interested in any ideas anyone else may have about ways to do this.

Can't color letters on Word 13

Posted: 30 Nov 2013 09:50 AM PST

I block the words that I want to change color. Click on the color selector at the top of the screen. When I run the pointer over the colors on the drop-down, the block shading on the text disappears and there is no color change when I click on a color on the drop-down. My system is windows 8, but I use the Windows 7 desktop display.

Office 365 error (Word 2013)

Posted: 30 Nov 2013 08:37 AM PST

Hello,

MS Office 365, especially MS Word 2013 is crashing quite often when opening a file. But that's not the worst - after restarting, Word offers you some recovering options and there is an error with data: Available Files, name, version created ... 01.01.1601. 2:00 (that was 5 minutes, not 412 years ago).

microsoft office help viewer not responding (office 2007)

Posted: 30 Nov 2013 07:27 AM PST

When I click on the question mark in the upper right hand corner for help in word 2007 I get the help window with the table of contents .  When I try to enter in the search field I get no response. When I clic on the links in the table of contents, I still get no answer. The problem is the same for Excel and PowerPoint

I use Windows 7 64 bits.

I have tried to repair Office via panel control a few times with no impact in solving the issue. I also tried to rename the Microsoft Help files in Program Data and still no impact in correcting the situation.

I am still looking for solving the issue.

File Directory - All Caps

Posted: 30 Nov 2013 03:12 AM PST

Hello Gurus: 


I have a series of files in a file  directory which have been named  (by someone other than myself) using  all capital letters.   From a purely  aesthetic standpoint, I would like use a Word macro  to change all listed filenames within the file directory to  initial capitalization. 


Assuming that this is even possible, I would greatly appreciate  some assistance  in this regard.


Thanking you in advance for any insight, I remain...


Gratefully yours,


Mitch

Background Color

Posted: 30 Nov 2013 02:44 AM PST

I changed my desired page color in word 2007, the entire page got colored but when i printed it, the color border was uneven. As a result some part outside the  page border remained discolored while some part colored which is not desired so either tell me how to get a full page color printout or how to color within the border set for an A4 sized sheet.

 Eagerly waiting for response!!

Pipe symbols appearing intermittently in a large Word document (2007 & 2010 both versions)

Posted: 30 Nov 2013 12:40 AM PST

I have a large word document (about 140 pages). The problem I have is that Word keeps placing a pipe ( | ) symbol throughout the document. The pipes seem to act as a page break, but there are no other 'invisible' symbols like paragraph marks, etc., and using the menu to show invisible characters has no effect on the pipe symbols.

 

I can select them individually, but I can't copy / paste them into the search/replace tool, and there are several hundred instances, and new ones appear as the document grows. They appear intermittently, with no real rhyme or reason as far as I can see. Also, copying a small part of the document with the pipe symbols to a new file has no effect either.

 

Does anyone know WHY these pipe symbols are appearing, and HOW to work with them and remove them permanently? I have attached an image that shows the symbols on a random page.

 

Note: The document is a personal spanish / english dictionary, but I do not think the language is part of the issue.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Roger

A font I am committed to has crowded letter spacing, especially in small caps. Is there a way to put a small space between adjacent letters?

Auto Complete for Dates Not Working

Posted: 29 Nov 2013 07:32 PM PST

I use Microsoft Office and Word 2007 and I.E 9 in Vista Home Premium.  After doing some "fixes" for other issues, I lost the feature of Auto Complete for dates.  I tried to restore to an earlier time and that did not fix it.  I also checked the AutoComplete in Internet Options and ran Malware. How can I restore the Auto Complete for dates?


Thanks,


Jerry

Typo in Slovak localization of Word 2013

Posted: 29 Nov 2013 04:47 PM PST

Hello,

I have found a typo in Word 2013 with Slovak localization.


When I press Ctrl+F (search) and type "x", the search finds too many results so it does not display them. This is ok, no problem.

The problem is with the message I get about it: "nAk chcete vysledky..." There is letter "n" which should not be there. Other parts of the message are ok, it's just the letter "n" is not correct and I consider it as a typo.

Office 2007 shortcuts

Posted: 29 Nov 2013 03:39 PM PST

Who had the brilliant idea of changing the old so common shortcuts? How come my save command is now ctrl+F12 instead of ctrl+S, how come my ctrl-Z is now alt+BACK ??

And most importantly - How do I change it back??
