How can I find and use my multiple style sets from Word 2010 now that I have 2013?

Posted: 20 Feb 2013 12:44 PM PST

I had a large number of style sets in Word 2010. When I upgraded to 2013, they disappeared from the ribbon. I see them in my personal templates. How to a apply a new style set to an existing file? For example, I have a library style set for documents I put in my on-line library. If I want to apply the library styles to a document with no styles, or with different style set, how to I tell Word which style set to use?

I typed a line of *'s between 2 paragraphs, now I can't delete it. Help!

Apparently, Word changed this into a 'border' and I can't get rid of it.

Word 2013 Default View/Layout

Posted: 20 Feb 2013 06:47 AM PST

Hi all,

I would like to ask is it normal when you open Word 2013, the default view for the print layout starts right at the top (like it is just beneath the ribbon toolbar) unlike Word 2010 where there is a header and footer space before you see the cursor starting a few centimetres below the ribbon toolbar? Thanks!

Why can't I hyperlink to a Heading (appendix)?

Posted: 20 Feb 2013 06:29 AM PST

Hi,

 

I've had some success w/ hyperlinks, but for some reason I can't "find" an appendix in the hyperlinks list, even though its style is set to "Heading."  (I have other Headings (1, 2, etc.) but the appendix ones aren't numbered, of course.)  All it shows are my numbered headings, and a bunch of "Bookmarks" (OLE's). I'm using Word 2007.

 

Thanks!

Age Calculation Using Word Mailmerge

Posted: 20 Feb 2013 03:25 AM PST

I'm trying to create a mergefield formula to calculate a person's age.  I have the birthday in MM/DD/YYYY format.  Is there a way to somehow subtract from the current day and calculate a numeric age?

How can I maintain the formatting pattern when adding extra rows to a Word Table?

Posted: 19 Feb 2013 03:00 PM PST

I'm trying to add information to an existing Word Table but whenever I click to add extra rows below the table, they're all the same colour instead of alternating light and dark bands as in the original rows.

If I create a completely new Word Document with a table, I can easily add the extra rows retaining the alternating format.

Can anyone tell me what's happening here??

what is af0bbc.msi

Posted: 18 Feb 2013 08:43 AM PST

I've been having this occur ever since I had to reformat my HD a few months back and reinstall Office.  Every time I go to open Word or Excel or anything like that, I get a popup (since I'm using my limited account, not the Admin account) asking me for admin permissions to install C:\Windows
\Installer\af0bbc.msi.

I went and looked at the file and it looks like it's a plain old regular MS file, but not a soul online anywhere seems to talk about it and I find it odd that Office didn't install everything it needed at the beginning. 

What is this file?  Can I tell it to just install?  Should I worry?

I'm using my old Office 2000 but I'm on a Windows 7 machine with XP compatibility. .  I've been using it like this for a very long time with no issue.  Like I said, the issue only arose on the recent reformat.

Thanks!
