Keeping sections and customized page breaks and page numbering intact when amending text

Posted: 20 Jan 2013 06:48 AM PST

Hi All

 

I have written an educational handbook of 340 pages which contains text and graphics and I have individualised each page number by making each page a new section and putting my individualized page numbering in the footers. I want schools to be able to customize some of the content as they wish, for their own situations and so want to keep much of the text in Word rather than PDF. However, when the text is amended, the section breaks disappear and therefore so does my individualized page numbering. Is there any way I can keep my page numbering even though the text is changed? I'm using Word 2003 and Windows XP.

 

Many thanks for any help.

Word Mail Merge loosing data

Posted: 19 Jan 2013 11:06 PM PST

Hi All,

I have a little strange question and i am not sure that i can explain it correctly. I will try :))

I am using for a source for the mail merge an Excel file. Everything seems to be working fine, but after looking more careful in the word file i noticed that in one of the fields there is a missing information. I noticed that all the information is cut after 255 sign. 

For example: In the box in Excel i have let say 2000 signs and in the same field in merge email i have 255 signs. This seems to be valid for all the information in this columns. All the other columns don`t have this problem all the information is transferred correctly.


I will be very grateful if someone could help me with this. 

Thank you !!!


check characters to the left of cursor from within a macro in Word 2007

Posted: 19 Jan 2013 09:32 PM PST

am writing a macro to convert a set of text lines to a continuous series of lines:

    Do Until chk = numrows
    Selection.MoveDown Unit:=wdLine, Count:=1
    Selection.EndKey Unit:=wdLine
    Selection.TypeText Text:=",  "
    Selection.MoveUp Unit:=wdLine, Count:=1
    Selection.EndKey Unit:=wdLine
    Selection.Delete Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
    chk = chk + 1
    Loop

Unfortunately when the growing string textwraps, the Delete 1 character action deletes the first letter of the next item.
so want to check, pres with an If then statement, whether last characters at end of line are ",  " and if not, move down to the new line created by text-wrapping before doing the delete action.
Unless someone can suggest a different and smarter coding to get the same result, which is to add a comma and two spaces to the end of a line, delete the paragraph marker, go to the end of the next line down, and repeat until the last row of text.
The original text has been pasted in from excel, and then the resulting table converted to text, just to clarify where I am coming from.
Am using Word 2007 in Windows 7.

Hi Larry,

Thank you for the link. A real learning experience. Got through it all
until the part where I had to make file and discovered that while I was
doing my install I deliberately deselected programming stuff (I don't

Just too funny.

Oh well back to installing again.

Newbie: Report of Total Hours

Hi Mark,

Assign a dummy resource 100% to each task, then Work=duration
Duration is never rolled up

Alternative: set a formula dina field such as duration1 =[Duration] and have
the summaries rolled uop.

Problem with first task

Posted: 07 May 2004 08:20 AM PDT

What time is it set to start? One "day" is 8 working hours by the standard
calendar settings. If your task starts Wed at some time into the workday
instead of right at the start of the day, and if the calendar shows hours of
work less than 8 hours, one "day" of work won't be completed until well
into the following day. The project calendar should show that actual hours
of work while the value for hours per day in the Tools Options Calendar page
should conform the the hours designated in the project calendar.

Planned work over a time period

Posted: 07 May 2004 04:32 AM PDT

You didn't indicate how much or how little detail you want. Here's a start:

1. View | Resource Usage. RightMouseButton on the right side of the
display and set the popup menu so that there is only a tick against Work.

2. RightMouseButton on the timescale at the top of the display, click on
TimeScale and set the display to show months (I did it by setting both the
middle and bottom tier Units to Months and the middle and bottom tier Count
to 1.

3. Project | Group By ... and choose Work vs. Material.

4. The figures on the line labelled "Type:Work" are the numbers you want.
You said you wanted days or man-months ... you'll have to some simple math
to go from hours to days (divide by 8).

Transfering MS Project98 data to another PC

Posted: 06 May 2004 06:14 PM PDT

All the data about a specific project is stored in one (large) file with the
extension "mpp". If you have inserted projects and/or a resource pool file,
those are normal mpp files as well linked to the project file. Templates
are in files with the extension mpt. Global objects and personal settings
are stored in the file GLOBAL.MPT. To locate the folders where your files
reside in your computer, use the Windows Search utility and scan for all
files with the filename "*.mpp".

SWITCH Formula

Posted: 06 May 2004 02:36 PM PDT


"LUIS" <microsoft.com> wrote in message
news:com... 
resources associated each one to a diferent number. The thing is i have a
list of at least 45 resources and the formula marks an error and i think it
is because the number of charachters. Is there another formula that i can
use? Is there another way to lookup this values in a table? 

Here is what I would do.
Open the resource view (the one with all the resources listed)
insert one of the text columns.
Put the number for each resource in the text column.

Now the question is what are the numbers for and which context are they used
in.
If they are used in some sort of a resource view then you are done.
If you are trying to use them in a task view you need to do something else,
where the "something else" is to write a small visual basic macro to put the
number where you need it.

If you can tell us what the number is used for and why then the next step is
easy.

Science Lab Scheduling?

Posted: 06 May 2004 12:31 PM PDT

Questions lead to questions...:-)

First, No I don't know a good (or any) "production" scheduling tools - I
havn't been in that business for some time - Google away and see what you
come up with.

Now regarding your projects - what are the limitations you would like to
eliminate. There are lots of project gurus that hang out here. They or I
might be able to help.

Given the scope (size in terms of effort, duration, number of people,
network complexity etc.) of your projects, the white board (or Excel) may be
the way to go...

In my work with teams, we ALWAYS start with post-it notes to ID
deliverables/activities then sequence the post-its into a network. Some of
those projects make it to MSP - some don't need to... so it is, to some
extent a judgement call.

Does putting the project into MSP add value? If so do it. If not don't.
Unfortunatley, only you can answer that question.

Mark

Tasks causing overallocated resources

Posted: 06 May 2004 11:18 AM PDT

Thanks for your help everyone.

I tried looking at the Resource Usage View again and tried to see if
the tasks would be red if they were using overallocated resources.
Again it only shows me the days a resource is overallocated and lists
all the tasks under it, even if they don't really conflict. (I'm
using Project 2002) I was hoping project would show me the exact
tasks that overuse a resource and that overlap down to the minute.
Here it lists them all if they just fall on the same day.

Mitch, I tried that Oasys Scheduler add-in and it seems to work pretty
good. It colors the tasks causing the overallocations red in the Gantt
Chart View. Exactly what I wanted! It also has a resource leveling
feature which seems to work better than the one that comes with
Microsoft Project. I tried it on a huge project (1000+ tasks) and it
actually leveled it. Project's leveling would just hang and do
nothing.

Thanks again.

Hi John,

Have a look at the Task Usage view and check for zeros where the split is
occurring. You could try deleting and re-inserting the offending tasks.

Otherwise, we need to discover whether your project is at fault, whether it
is Project at fault, or whether it's your PC. Does the symptom occur with
other projects on this PC? Does it occur with this project on other PCs?
Does it occur with other projects on other PCs? Does your backup (you do
have one don't you? :) ) have the same symptom?
