Microsoft Word - Upside down text?


Upside down text?

Posted: 13 Mar 2013 02:56 PM PDT

   Hello! I am using one of the templates on Microsoft Word 2010 to create an invitation. The invitation will be folded into four (hot dog style and then hamburger style). In order to get that kind of invitation, two of the boxes have to have upside down text. I have tried creating a text box so that I could just rotate it when I was done, but the text inside stays the same direction....Is there another template on Word that will be simpler to use? Or can I just flip the text upside down?

  

        Thank you!

Word /z command line not working for me

Posted: 13 Mar 2013 11:59 AM PDT

I'm trying to start up Word with a template in Word 2000/WinXP Home, but it's not working for me.

This commandline works to start Word:

   c:\program files\microsoft\office\Winword.exe

And this starts Word but does not start the template:

   c:\program files\microsoft\office\Winword.exe /z"c:\path_to_templates\mytemplate.dot"

I've also tried the "start winword ..." version, and it does not work either.

Word starts, but the template itself is not run.

Any clues/hints/tips on getting this working for Word 2000?

JAWS forms in a text based document - getting JAWS to read the forms and checkboxes

Posted: 13 Mar 2013 06:14 AM PDT

I am having difficulty getting JAWS to announce checkboxes and such.  They are not being announced, and in order to select them you would have to know they are there, use Shift and the arrow key to block it in and then press spacebar to either mark it or unmark it. 

Locating and using the Developer tab in 2010 is not a problem, but getting it to be announced is. 

A related question: If I protect my document, it is not reading the text between prompts.  The idea was to create a workbook with reference information between questions and by limiting the interaction with the text, people would know they can't 'screw up' my document.  However, JAWS jumps right to the first time I put a text entry prompt. 


I am using MS Word 2003 in Windows XP. Text disappears!

Posted: 12 Mar 2013 05:56 PM PDT

I have been typing on a manuscript - when I got up to leave for a few minutes. When I returned part of the work had vanished.  I found it pages down and back-spaced it back into position.  This is the third time this has happened.  I also notice the ruler on my left being very erratic.  I am also having trouble with left side. It has been quite sometime since I worked on this PC as I have a  much newer laptop.  But this is where the work began  so i decided to just continue here. Can someone please help me w/this problem?

Thanks

How do i create an association so that i can send word docs as email attachments from Word, using my live/outlook account?

Posted: 12 Mar 2013 10:59 AM PDT

When I try to use the 'save and send' button in Word 2010 to send a doc as an email attachment, it says I have no email account associated with Word and I need to create one in default programmes control panel. I've been into the control panel but can't work out what to do next. I have an online Microsoft Live/Outlook account, but not a computer based email account. Do I need one to be able to create the association, or can I associate my Live account? I have to sign into my Microsoft account in order to login to my laptop, and my Live account emails are all synced to the Windows 8 email app, so I would have thought that Word ought to connect to it automatically?

Documents

Posted: 10 Mar 2013 03:27 PM PDT

I am right in the middle of writing a book, and I went to my documents to add more writing. When I opened I discovered that it had some how been changed to Word pad instead of a Word document. How can I get all my writing back and get it back into a word format? I did hit the Repair link when opened Office 2010instead of not doing anything, it did not work. When I originally posted my question I had forgotten the correct name for the product my documents are changed over to.

I need to get the documents back to the way they were because I am in the stages of writing a book.  Your original answer told me to go to  Office in my programs and features click change, when the

program's execute popped up to click repair let it do its job and open stored office documents- that changed nothing. Once again the Office program opens the original documents and at the top of the page, directly below the menu bar a yellow bar appears and within that bar are the following words: "Word Pad does not support all the features of this documents format. Some content may be missing or displayed improperly." Honestly, I do not know what Word Pad is, how to open it, or where a link for the program would be.

Just copy it exactly,
but substituting vmlinux-<version> and initrd-<version>
where <version> is the version you want to use,
eg <version> = 2.4.26, or whatever.

Mount: /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device

Posted: 02 Jun 2004 06:30 AM PDT

It looks like the missing usb-storage and sg modules were the cause of
my troubles. Today, the same disk did not want to mount - same error
- /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device. Doing 'lsmod' showed that
usb-storage and sg modules were NOT loaded, so I loaded them with
insmod usb-storage and insmod sg.

Now, I wonder - why were these modules not loaded automatically this
time?
I had the disk plugged in and powered while my computer was booting,
so it had the chance to detect the attached USB mass storage device...

Any ideas?
I can always add insmod lines to my rc.local, but that should not be
necessary.

Thank you again!

Yes - its name and all aliases usually are in /etc/hosts, but usually
not just there, so (as root):
find /etc [/usr/etc ...] -type f \

All $HOME/.* files are also candidates:
find /home/[A-Za-z]*/.* -maxdepth 0 -type f \
-exec fgrep -l <your host name here>

I'd to change my machine's name several times due to changing countries

Add something like the following to the /boot/grub/grub.conf file:

title Windows

chainloader +1

Read the grub info file, it's far more detailed than the man file.

i.e. type: info grub

If you're not familiar with using info, it's a bit like a plain text web

GRUB loader problem

Posted: 01 Jun 2004 12:10 PM PDT

In comp.os.linux.setup, John H uttered these immortal words:
 

Can you boot RH9 from a rescue option on the CD? If so add something like:

title=Windows 2000
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1

to the bottom of /boot/grub/grub.conf or /boot/grub/menu.lst (whichever
you're using) and run "grub-install /dev/hda" as root to install GRUB to
the MBR.

The above GRUB stanza assumes Windows is on the frist partition of the first
drive.

If you can boot RH9 from the CD you may have to type:

# chroot /mnt/sysimage /bin/bash

or similar to get into the RH environment. It's been a long time since I
used Red Hat so maybe a search of their web site or Google is in order.

Canadian English for Microsoft Office for the Mac

Posted: 23 Jul 2007 12:51 PM PDT

I honestly don't claim to know what the difference(s) are or whether there
are any, but if there are none it's quite curious that *both* Windows OS &
Mac OS recognize Canadian English & English (UK) as separate entities.
Evidently there is a distinction which is significant to some.

However, the point being made is that the Canadian English-specific proofing
tools included in Win Word are *not* available on the Mac... That's the
question which was put and John's answer is correct. I would think
acceptability of a substitute is at the discretion of the user - and some,
perhaps, are more discriminating than others.

Also, supplanting a "crack" about one nationality with a "crack" about
another kinda negates the "apology", don't ya think?

Thanks for the reply. I do run a WSUS server as well; I wonder if the

Nobody has reverse engineered this? Surprising. Between WSUS and
