Greetings!

Well, the irregularities of the tables in my files is causing a lot of problems, despite all the help I am getting from the experts on this forum.

Well, perhaps this will be better. A macro to

1) Find every table in the MS Word file with 7 or more rows.
2) Select the entire table.
3) Highlight in yellow (or any other color) the entire table.
4) Find the next table with 7 or more rows ,,, and so on down the file.
5) Split into two tables only those tables with exactly 12 rows (split at the 7th row). Most of the tables are 12 rows, but the other tables with say 7 rows disrupt the other macros that have been provided.

Example of table:

1 blah blah blah blah
2 blah
3
4
5
6
7 (Split here into new table)
8
9
10
11
12

Then I can go back and examine the highlighted tables for editing (such as splitting the tables at the right point).

I would deeply appreciate your help in this matter.

Tweaking Another Search Macro

Posted: 06 Apr 2013 06:32 AM PDT

Greetings!

A day or so ago HansV kindly provided me the following macro (that works well, by the way),

The following macro will select the first table with more than 6 rows that it encounters.

After splitting this table, simply run the macro again.

 

Sub FindLargeTable()
    Dim f As Boolean
    Dim tbl As Table
    For Each tbl In ActiveDocument.Tables
        If tbl.Rows.Count > 6 Then
            tbl.Select
            f = True
            Exit For
        End If
    Next tbl
    If f = False Then
        MsgBox "No tables with more than 6 rows found.", vbInformation
    End If
End Sub


The problem is there are hundreds of tables with over 6 rows, so it is time-consuming to do it over and over.


Could the macro above be tweaked, as follows?


1) Search for tables with over 6 rows, 2) split these tables in half (the seventh row will become the first row), 3) indicate where the split occurred -- in say yellow highlight, and 4) then continue down the file to the bottom.


NOTE: If the macro encounters a table with an usually setup (it will usually be 12 rows, but there could be anomalies) the macro should stop and then the problem can be dealt with.


Most tables contain columns with 6 rows.


I would deeply appreciate your help in this matter.

.pdf to Word for free?

Posted: 06 Apr 2013 05:31 AM PDT

Is there an inexpensive or - better yet - free program to translate .pdf documents into Word? I have a program that lets me read .pdf files, but I like to change the font and be able to delete parts I have already read - can't do that in Adobe reader and can't spend the money to purchase a program to do it for me.

 

I have Adobe Reader and Sumatra pdf which both allow me to read the files and/or print them, but I cannot paste them into Word successfully.

How to fix Word 2010 starting with File Tab, Not Home Tab

Posted: 05 Apr 2013 12:59 PM PDT

Word 2010 documents should open by default on the Home tab.  My documents use to until today. Now they open only on the File tab. The Home tab is still visible, checked, and at the top of the list on Options, Customize Ribbon.  I can select the Home tab by clicking on it  but after I perform any task using the Home tab, such as Bold  face, the document automatically reverts to the File tab. I then have to reselect Home tab for each function.  This is new after months of it working correctly.  The same relation now exists for all other tabs, useable for one function but then revert to the File tab.  Help is needed and appreciated.

Can't set up page numbering within individual sections and cumulative page numbering in same document

Posted: 05 Apr 2013 06:03 AM PDT

I've written a document organized into sections. I would like the page numbering in the header to restart at 1 for each section. I would like the page numbering in the footer for all sections to be cumulative for the entire document. I can't get the document to do both at the same time. If I set up the section page numbering to start at 1 for each section, the footer page numbering also starts at 1 for each section. If I set up the footer numbering to be cumulative for the entire document, the header page numbering is also cumulative. Help!

Don,
I don't have Project Server so I don't know how the server object model
differs from the standard object model. However, like the object models
for all versions of Project, they generally are pretty constant except
for added features and a few deleted items. I get all of my object model
information from the object model help files available through the VBA
editor. But for your reading (and learning) enjoyment here are some
websites you may find useful.

One nice place to start with sample VBA code is Jack Dahlgren's website:
http://masamiki.com/project/macros.htm

For a free Project 2002 VBA training module (equally applicable to
Project 2003) put together by Microsoft (for VBA, see module 4):
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;325846

For a Project 2002 and 2003 SDK:
http://www.mvps.org/project/links.htm

Hopefully this info will get you started. Once you get started if you
have further questions on VBA, just post on the
microsoft.public.project.developer newsgroup.

Typical file size

Posted: 25 Jun 2004 01:46 PM PDT

Rather than do file formatting on every save (to speed things up) the
programmers just programmed it so File save immediately after opening does
major file house keeping. It's not intended to save any information. In fact
if you do even one edit then save the file house keeping doesn't happen.

I learnt about this because one of the internal Microsoft guru's kindly
alerted this to me after I recommended the save as in a Woody's Project
Watch article.

Printing to A0 Printer

Posted: 25 Jun 2004 12:19 PM PDT

Interesting ... I wonder what in Project is now different as result?
(Registry updated? Corrupted files now uncorrupt?). Maybe just the
order of "last" in for some key file, or something. Something changed.

I still can't help but think it a printer driver issue, but can't argue
with success!! Thanks for follow-up.

That is weird. 602's American website offers 602PC Suite, which is their
own office suite that they wrote. The Czech site you linked to - the
602Office site, has an "English" link at the bottom, and that link is
apparently their European site (hence the EU flag) - but they do not offer
602PC Suite *or* 602Office on that site.

I spent some time teaching blind people how to us a synthesizer. One of
the issues is getting the synthesizer to the same state, every time they
want to do something.

To load a file, hit F2 the arrow up twice, then arrow left once, then
hold the decrement key for ten seconds. Then increment up twice, arrow
right once, hit enter, then arrow down for the song. [And hopefully they
have correctly memorized the names of the songs.] Hit enter, then went
75 seconds for the song to load.

Slow, with lots of redundant key strokes, but the only way to ensure
that the song one wants to load, is the one that is loaded.

If one can not navigate to a fixed point, it is not accessible for a
blind person.
