In a template, how do I have the current file name in the first page footer, but only in the first section?

Posted: 27 Feb 2013 07:14 AM PST

I have created a template with the current file name in the first page footer.  If I create a document from the template, and then add a section break, I get the footer on the first page of the second section too.  How can I change the template to avoid this?

I have tried adding a section break, making the required changes to the definition of section 2, and then deleting the section break, then saving the template.  But this does not seem to keep the changes - the section 1 footer comes back again if I put a section break into a document.
I don't want to leave a section break in the template, because most of the time it will be used for single section documents.

Setting the pitch does not work properly, I get a real small font when I set it for 12; others are smaller than what I set

The font setting does not give the font that I set.  A 12 pitch looks like about a 6 or 8.  To get a decent size I must increase the number for the font.  How do I get the computer to set the font like it appears on the screen when you go to the place where  you set the font?

Creating reference lists with returns in Word 2007

Posted: 26 Feb 2013 02:46 PM PST

I am trying to create a word document that has several sections in it.  I want to create a list at the beginning of the document that will allow somone to go to that section by just clicking on the list item.  I would also like to add to the bottom of each topic a "return to top" link that they can click on and return to the list.  Very similar to the way your guys lists are in this forum.  This seems to be done in a different way than using hyperlinks.

two pages into one

Posted: 26 Feb 2013 12:05 PM PST

** HELLO:  IS THERE A WAY to "merge", "combine", "format"; whichever the term to use, a two page document into one page.

    On my "so-called" 'second' page, which is really a ONE PAGE, (I think), but came out as a two page document. It shows that I

    have one of those little white lines running thru it, its not really a break, but it does separate it so that when I go to print it, it

    does come out as two pages. HOW DO I GET RID OF THAT line separator so that when I go to print that page, its all on one

    page. I also want my text to follow up to that one page. I tried to 'shrink' it, but to no avail.

    WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR HELP.

New custom bibliography style does not appear in bibliography style list

Posted: 25 Feb 2013 04:51 PM PST

I am using Word 2010 with the latest service pack. I am trying to create a new bibliography style.  I have tried the process described on blogs.office.com whereby you create your own bibliography *.xsl file using another style file as a pattern.  I took the turabian.xsl file, for example, and made a copy of it named MYFILE.XSL.  In the new file, I replaced the only occurrence of "Turabian" with "MYFILE".  This is the only change I made, just to see if I could get the new style to show up in the bibliography style list.  Even with that as the only change, MYFILE does not show up in the bibliography styles list. 

 

I tried making the same change to the turabian.xsl file ("turabian"->"MYFILE") in an attempt to see if I could edit that file rather than adding a new style, but "Turabian"  disappeared completely from the bibligoraphy style list.

 

Other articles I have read seem to indicate that this process which was written for Word 2007 should work the same way for Word 2010.  (Of course, I am using the bibliography style files from word 2010 as the template.) Can anyone advise me what I am doing wrong, or does this not work in Word 2010?

Thanks!

cannot preview mail merge

Posted: 25 Feb 2013 10:58 AM PST

I've recently started using a different PC (running Vista), and I've noticed that Word is not converting hyperlinks and mailmerge fields. I'm now trying to run a mailmerge created on my old computer, and although I've selected 'Preview Results' I'm not seeing any data. If I select the field and 'toggle field codes' I get the data, but as soon as I go on to the next record I'm back to square 1.  The data is being merged from an Access database (.mdb) file. Any ideas - please!

Document Structure Tags - removed as a default.

Posted: 25 Feb 2013 09:24 AM PST

I want to save M.Word documents as PDFs but don't want the document structure tags on.  I know I can uncheck the box each time I wish to convert the document, but is there a way of making this the default without choosing the minimise optimisation option.  My reason for wishing to remove the tags is, when displaying a PDF with an image electronically, when hovering over the image, the image name appears and I don't want to have to change all the image names.  Thanks

Unable to choose languages while using Translator in Word 2010 because the language list does not appear from drip down menu

Posted: 23 Feb 2013 05:54 PM PST

On my newly purchased hp desktop, Translator in Word, Office Home and Student 2010, does not work.  After I click Review/Translator/Choose Translation Language, in the opened window, two problems:

problem 1 - Under 'Choose MiniTranslator language', the drop down menu only show 4 languages instead of full list ususally more than 30 ( the same software on my laptop, from that list I can choose my desired language ).  Unfortunately I do not see my desired language among the four languages.

problem 2 - Under 'Choose dcument translation language', no language list from drop down menu appears both in the boxes of 'Tranlate From" and "Translate To'  Message shown in both boxes is 'Services not available'.

I also use Word in Office Home and student 2010 on my laptop. Translator in Word does function well.

How do I solve this issue, please.

Using English and Spanish simultaneously in Office 2010

Posted: 22 Feb 2013 09:15 AM PST

What features of Office 2010 should I enable if I am a student of Spanish?  I need to be able to type proper characters in Spanish and spellcheck my documents.  We are studying "International Spanish", so everything goes as far as that is concerned.  I need to add the ability to type those eight extra characters that Spanish uses.  Will I be able to toggle between the languages?  And/or, how does this all work?
