Hi MA,

Noticed jonny's post reads Browse and find wkskal.exe on the pc with the
calender you wish to use.

I think, wkskal.exe should read WksCal.exe.

Microsoft Word - Adding Default Colors

Microsoft Word - Adding Default Colors

Adding Default Colors

Posted: 15 Apr 2013 01:45 PM PDT

In Font there are options for the font color with options for Theme Colors, Standard Colors, Recently Used Colors, and More Colors.  In order to get to our company's standard color (Dark Green), I have to navigate to the color picker and select it.  It's then there under Recently Used Colors but when I open a new document it doesn't stay there.  Is there a way to set our most used colors (which aren't a part of the Standard or Theme Color choices) as the default colors either in Theme Colors or Standard Colors?  

Stuck on CAPS

Posted: 15 Apr 2013 11:24 AM PDT

I was using my Office 'Word' app to write my journal and all the letters are coming up CAPS. Working the Caps Lock and Shift keys doesn't help at all. I only have problems in 'Document' and as you can see no problem when typing here or elsewhere. I can't connect it with anything new that I did.
Would appreciate any help you can offer.

ms word 2010 footnote numbering won't continue after section break

Posted: 15 Apr 2013 01:04 AM PDT

In Word 2010 I have a chapter (each chapter is a new section) which has a section break in it for a table that has to change page orientation (from portrait to landscape) - so the rest of the section (and thesis) is in portrait. Each chapter has footnotes that restart from 1 for each chapter. In this particular chapter footnotes 1-84 are OK then the landscape table occurs and then the chapter continues in portrait but I cannot get the footnotes to continue at 85. Word takes the absolute no. of the footnote (#892)! I have tried continuous & new page section breaks, forcing footnotes to start from 85 but all to no avail.

What is the trick/work around? Or what am I doing wrong?

When I try to open office it works for 10 seconds then it says cannot find dwwin.exe

Recently upgraded to Word 2013. Can't get it to print two A5 pages onto an A4 sheet

Posted: 13 Apr 2013 09:20 AM PDT

I often set up documents on A5 then want to print them as booklets, or at least side by side on A4 paper. When I try to select paper size within the Word 2013 print options, this changes the format of the document, not the selected paper in the printer. The same happens when I try to change the paper size within the printers own options menu. Just selecting number of sheets per page doesn't do the trick either as it assumes then that the paper is A5 size and prints two A6 versions in the corner of my A4 paper.

 

The old version of Word (2007) had no problems with this. What has happened?

How to fix error message from FilesaveAs macro? filesaveas macro gives error message of "wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment"

Posted: 12 Apr 2013 12:26 PM PDT

I copied a macro from Allen Wyatt's WordTips site (http://wordribbon.tips.net/T011619_Setting_a_Document_Naming_Convention.html) to cause "Save As" to always insert the date into the file name.  It worked for a while and, recently, it has not.  Instead, it generates an error message of: 

"Compile error: Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment" and the word "Format" in the macro code is blue-highlighted in the VBA Editor. 

Here's the macro:

Public Sub FileSaveAs()
    Dim dlgSave As Dialog

    Set dlgSave = Dialogs(wdDialogFileSaveAs)

    With dlgSave
        .Name = Format(Date, "yyyy_mm_dd ")
        .Show
    End With
End Sub

(The blue-highlighted is in the 4th line from the bottom.) 

The fact that the macro worked for a while makes me think that I must have done something else that somehow affected this.  But I don't know what that could have been. 

Any suggestions?

Paul

Selecting and typing over unwanted text...

Selected text used to automatically be removed when I type over it... but now when I select (highlighting) text I want to replace, it remains next to the new text.

Footers

I have a document in Word 2010 that I want to put a page-of-page in the right corner of the footer, the date in the left corner and some custom text in the middle.  I would like the footer to be on every page but the header only on the first page.  I would also like the date and page number to automatically update.  The document does not have any section breaks.  I've been working on this problem on and off for days and can't seem to figure it out.

[discuss] Multi-Sheets in OpenOffice Writer?

Posted: 25 Feb 2007 04:28 PM PST

>firstly there is already a notes system in openoffice and MS 

I'm not the OP, but I'm another person who'd like this kind of feature. Insert Notes works fine for little notes, especially about specific points in the document, but it's not what we want. It doesn't help with managing a writing project. I think what the OP and I both want is some way to associate a second document with the main document and have it open whenever the main document is opened. There are ways to work around the need, such as using a master doc to manage the project with associated project docs (outlines, notes, planning docs, to-dos, etc.) as subdocs, but that's not as convenient as something like a second sheet or some other way of associating documents might be. Especially in a muti-chapter project where I already have a master document.

I work in both Linux and Windows. In Windows, there's a little freeware app called Stickies that gives me part of what I'm looking for. Unlike other sticky note apps, Stickies lets me attach notes to documents so they open automatically with the document. I can keep notes or links to more detailed notes on a sticky that comes up with the document. I find it useful, but limited, and not nearly as elegant as a solution within OOo would be. I haven't found anything quite like it in Linux. The downside, of course, is the notes are only there on one machine, instead of being a part of the document, available wherever I work.

When I was experimenting with different word processing apps (which led me to OOo), I tried a program called RoughDraft. At least I think that's the one, anyway. It has a notepad pane in its UI, where you keep your project notes handy. I liked that, but didn't much care for the program itself.

[discuss] Save a copy for OOo?

Posted: 23 Feb 2007 02:46 PM PST

Sorry andrew but that's not what he means

A "save a copy" is where the file gets saved but then it doesn't
switch to that file as the file being 'edited' so for example you
could be editing foobar.odt and save a copy as foobar.doc to test how
well it opens in MS word

but since you 'saved a copy' rather than just saved you can open the
file without it being locked, and whenever you save the file again
it'll still save it to foobar.odt

Abiword has this. As does a lot of other open source apps. OpenOffice
seems not to have bothered just because MS hasn't bothered, even
though it's probably simple to implement.

Hello Matt,

the last release of en-GB was for OpenOffice.org 2.0.2 but at that time
language packs weren't distributed into the mirror network because they
got no QA approval.

http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=62891

Builds for en-GB language packs are still built and can be found on one
of our extended mirrors for 2.1.0rc2 and 2.2.0rc1.

http://distribution.openoffice.org/mirrors/#extmirrors

These are release candidates. If you're interested into doing QA for
these builds then you're invited to help. If you need help then please
subscribe to dev@l10n and/or to There you'll find several people
doing l10n QA and release tests for other native lang builds.

....and please read this:

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/NLC:ReleaseChecklist
 

Kind regards, Joost

Even 1.1.3 worked on my vista machine. Used it very briefly, just to see if it worked, and found that it would do whatever I asked of it as a word processor, saving and opening only sxw documents. Replaced it with 2.0 and continue to do productive work.
