Microsoft Word - Issue with restrictions in fillable survey

Microsoft Word - Issue with restrictions in fillable survey

Issue with restrictions in fillable survey

Posted: 04 Jan 2013 10:15 AM PST

I created a survey that is mostly in text boxes (except for name/email address at the top). I have both plain text content controls and drop down content controls within the text boxes. In editing restrictions, when I check fillable form, it will only let me type the person's name/email address at the top(not in a text box) and when I check comments, it will only let me edit/choose the drop-down content controls and not the plain text content controls. I have not put any restrictions on formatting. Is there any way I can make the editing restrictions so the clients can only type name/email at top, select option from drop down and type in plain text content controls?

Error when opening a word document.

Posted: 03 Jan 2013 07:45 PM PST

I am working on a large word file (75 MB/611 pages) with a high number of photos and text boxes.  I saved the file and now cannot reopen it.  I am getting the error" The name in the end tag element must match the element type in the start tag".  I tried the MS fixit program however it was not able to run on my computer.  Addtionally I purchased a on-line recovery program and it has failed to repair the document as well.  Hope someone on here might be able to help me fix the file. 

 

Thanks Bryan

How do I stop the style list floating (MSW2007)

Posted: 03 Jan 2013 06:17 PM PST

I am using Word 2007.  When I used it under XP I could bring up the style list onto the window and it would stay fixed.  It did not float, and. more importantly, it did not obscure any of the text in the document. Under W7 it floats.

How do I get the XP effect - non-floating, non-obscuring?

Thanks

VBA: Searching for Misspelled Words in Word

Posted: 03 Jan 2013 03:56 PM PST

I want to create a macro that will go through an entire document and show me each misspelled word so that I can take action about it (e.g., correct it or add it to the dictionary).  I am obviously too lazy to search the documents, which tend to be large, manually for misspellings.

How would I do that?

TIA.

How is that done?

2010 Word opening screen is from the File tab and none of the Home page taskbar items show. If I click on Home page tab everything shows but I cannot type of that page....

Posted: 03 Jan 2013 10:33 AM PST

2010 Word opening screen used to default to the Home view, now it comes up as the File view with no task tabs showing such as Bold, Underline, etc.

When I click on the Home page, the task bar items are there as always but now I cannot type on that screen (can type of the File screen).  How can I change this?

 

Word 2010 display of comments, footnotes, etc. within document

Posted: 02 Jan 2013 10:24 PM PST

I am using Windows 7 and Word 2010.  When I hover over an inline comment or a footnote, the text does not display as it did in Word 2007.  Is there any setting that is preventing the display of the comment/footnote text when hovering over it?  Thanks,

Styles Question

Posted: 02 Jan 2013 12:29 PM PST

In a document I just created I have two footnotes.   Ordinarily I have Word (Styles, Options) display only styles In use or In Document since IMHO the other couple thousand built-in styles (ok, maybe there are a mere hundred or so) are inscrutable and just get in the way.  After creating the footnotes I tried to edit the footnote style to change the line spacing.  But the Footnote Text style did not show up in styles In Use or In Current Document.  This makes no sense because I can see the footnotes and therefore the footnote text style has to be In Use or In Current Document or, more logically, in both!.  So I changed my Options to All Styles, quickly found and edited Footnote Text as I wanted.  No problem.  Then I switched my Options back to In Use but the style disappeared!  (Not the footnotes, of course, or their modified formatting, just the style name in the display).  I see the same thing with the Options set to In Current Document.  What this about?  What must I do so that a style I have in my document is, well,  In Current Document or a style I have in use in that document shows up as In Use?  Or are these terms--In Use and In Current Document--intended to have meanings unrelated to those words?  Hardly a mission-critical issue but it seems bizarre.

Copying deleted text (comment not a question)

Posted: 01 Jan 2013 11:01 PM PST

If you try to copy text deleted with track changes you get "The section is marked as deleted text" and nothing gets to the clipboard. This is very unhelpful. We should be able to copy text marked for deletion regardless of track change status. e.g. if the selection includes some deleted text then copy final text (as is what already happens) but if all deleted text (as must fire unhelpful message) then copy original.

Each office product should have a direct feedback link within the "contact us" section, not buried in a site predominantly built for searching. I have several product specific suggestions. Maybe MS doesn't want to hear it, and I don't really want to spend the time to provide it, but with enough 'new feature' irritations to warrant rolling back to earlier rather than later MS products I'm getting close... if I thought MS would listen?!

How do I link separate Word documents?

Posted: 01 Jan 2013 11:08 AM PST

Specifically, I would like to link several documents in Word 2010 by keyword(s) so that if I search for that keyword, I get all the relevant documents.

Do I need some kind of Access DB?

Thank you in advance.

Word 2013 Print function, multiple copy request produces only 1 copy

Posted: 31 Dec 2012 09:11 AM PST

In Word 2013 (RTM) when I request to print multiple copies (say 3 copies) of a document only 1 copy is printed.  ("File" > Print > copies: 3).

Is this a bug (likely) or a "configuration" option somewhere?

 

TIA,

Blurry images and altered formatting when pasting from Powerpoint 2010 into Word 2010

Posted: 31 Dec 2012 08:53 AM PST

Hi, I used to paste charts, tables, text, and other creations from powerpoint 2007 into word 2007 with no problem. I would paste special as enhanced metafile, and I would get a crystal clear carbon copy of exactly what the image looked like. Now I'm using 2010, and when I paste as enhanced metafile Word changes the formatting and especially the font so much that the image doesn't look good anymore. When I paste special as bitmap or png instead, then I get the correct font but the image becomes pretty blurry. 

I've tried changing the settings in both Word and Powerpoint to "do not compress images in file", but that hasn't had an effect.

Does anyone have a solution to this? There's got to be some kind of fix.

Thanks in advance!

64-bit Web Apps Frustration

Posted: 29 Dec 2012 06:06 AM PST

OK, this is less of a question and more of a general annoyance I have with Web Apps. I know it's been said elsewhere on here, but I find it absolutely aggravating that Microsoft Web Apps cannot play along with the 64-bit version of Microsoft Office. If I had known this was going to be such a problem, I probably wouldn't have gone with the 64-bit version of the software in the first place. I just hope that with the new version of Office this problem is getting fixed.

So, I guess there is a question in here, will Office 2013 64-bit be compatible with Web Apps, or is it still going to have compatibility problems? I just find it frustrating that Microsoft can't get their products to work seamlessly with each other.

Heading 1 on Odd page

Posted: 29 Dec 2012 05:51 AM PST

Hello reader,

Is there a way to automatically have each instance of Heading 1 to be placed on the next odd page, instead of the next page?

Thank you,

Jeffrey
