How do I get rid of a margin created by a cover page?

Posted: 06 May 2013 09:24 AM PDT

I was editing a long document (300+ pages) in MS Word 2010 and used Insert> Cover Page to add the "Conservative" cover page to the document.

Unfortunately, this seems to have added a blank wide margin on the right-hand side of the entire document (not just the cover page), which has effectively made the available space for text on every page narrower.

Even more unfortunately, I saved the document like this, so now I'm stuck trying to find a way to undo the damage.

But because I ended up changing the cover page after deciding it was too fancy, I can't seem to use the "Remove Current Cover Page" function.

Nothing happens, and that right-hand "ghost margin" does not go away. it gets darker when I move the cursor over it, but I can find no way to delete the bugger.

I would gladly send or upload the file to show what I mean.

 

 

Need help formatting an equation

Posted: 06 May 2013 08:31 AM PDT

Whenever there is text in the same line as an equation, it causes the equation to shrink in size.
See example: on imgur

Notice how the equation in the third line is noticeably smaller. It is really annoying. Is there any way to make the equations to always stay the same default size no matter what's going on around them. It's word 2007 by the way.

Clicking OPEN on Word 2007 shuts down Word

Posted: 05 May 2013 08:48 PM PDT

I have Office Home and Student 2007 and Windows 8.  I can process in Word and save the document. and all other functions except I cannot open a previous file. About half of the time when I click OPEN, Word shuts down and I'm back at my Desktop. Word was working perfectly for the last 6 months.  It has recently started shutting down. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Office Home and Student 2007.

Blocking text

Posted: 05 May 2013 04:53 PM PDT

 A problem is developing in that while I can block the text I loose it as soon as I release the mouse.    Not always but it is happening more and more.

Printing #10 envelopes from "add to document" not possible with my printer. I was able to do this with Word 2003.

Posted: 05 May 2013 11:55 AM PDT

Printing multiple envelopes (with the same return address only) was easy with Office 2003. Now with Office 2010, I can't do this using "Add to document" because I can't put my envelopes in the feeder horizontally.

Is there a solution to this issue?

Thanks, Michael

AutoCorrect not working on "THanks"

Posted: 05 May 2013 10:47 AM PDT

AutoCorrect is working generally in word and outlook, but fails on correcting "THanks"  I've tried a few times to replace the entry in the database but it just underlines it.  I also tried deleting it and hoping the "Fix two first letters capitalized" would help, but no go.  I do this a lot in emails, so would love to get this to work.  Any help would be appreciated.

Try applying the latest Apple combo updater for Tiger:

Bought Office 2008 Beta and now it says it's about to Expire

Posted: 12 Nov 2007 09:56 PM PST

Hi Jim:

Let's be a little realistic, shall we? You can "pay money to some crook for
a beta version of Microsoft software". That's like buying a stolen camera
in a pub. Paying money for something that is stolen in the first place is
not the same as "buying" it.

When you buy something, you get the legal right to use it.

You have paid money for the right to go to jail :-) As Jolly Rodger said:
not to bright :-)

In this case, I advise anyone who has a copy of Office 2008 to get it off
their machine SOON.

It may APPEAR to "activate normally", but I also know that if you allow it
to do so, you WILL regret it :-)

Surely you are winding us up? Surely you do not actually believe that the
largest software company in the world is going to issue beta versions of
(what may be the next release of) its software in such a condition that they
can be safely cracked? Really?

I cannot understand why anyone who sets out to steal from a company that has
a larger security team than many police forces, thinks it's a good idea to
post announcing the fact, to a server owned by that company! Did I miss a
news report? Has the H5N1 Chicken Flu virus finally mutated to a "Darwin
Virus"? (The Darwin Award is given posthumously to the person who finds the
stupidest way to remove themselves from the gene pool each year...)

Cheers

Installation of Office 2004 on OS X 10.5 Leopard

Posted: 12 Nov 2007 01:25 AM PST

Hi Ratliff,

The framework error is a result of not installing the office updates. Did
you attempt to manually install any updates? The way to launch the
autoupdate utility is from the Help menu of any office application.

EndNote X has no known compatibility problems with Word or Leopard. I just
installed Leopard, then Office 2004 and Endnote on a new laptop today.

By any chance do you still have the trial version of office on your
computer? If so, use the Remove Office tool to get rid of it, as the trial
version may be trying to be the default application instead of the actual
version.

-Jim

New Macbook with OS X Leopard won't load Office 2004

Posted: 11 Nov 2007 08:47 PM PST

Was the Office packaging sealed? I have a sneaking suspicion that someone
bought the package, swapped the disks, then returned it for a refund.
Examine the labeling on the disk to verify that it *is* 2004.

Powerpoint presenter tools

Posted: 05 Nov 2007 06:56 PM PST

Hi,

Yes, this is possible.

You would create a visual basic macro (very short) that would activate
presenter tools for you.

Here's a problem with me answering your question - my own time crunch. I
started to work this out and now I am leaving on a trip till next week.

So that you can see how far I got with your answer I'm posting what I have
so far. Essentially, my plan is to programmatically open the powerpoint file
and then programmatically click a Presenter Tools button.

Here's a the beginning of the set of steps you could take. I hope someone
fills in the rest while I am away. Otherwise we will have to pick this up
again on Thanksgiving weekend:

From the VIEW menu choose TOOLBARS then CUSTOMIZE TOOLBARS/MENUS

Click the NEW button and name the new Toolbar (for this example I'll call it
Presenter).

Click the COMMANDS button and then drag the PRESENTER TOOLS icon from the
menu to your new toolbar.

Click the TOOLBARS button (back to where you were a few seconds ago)

Click MENUBAR in the left side then click the RESET button (that restores
the PRESENTER TOOLS command to the menu without removing it from your new
toolbar). Don't worry if the menu disappears or looks screwy at this point.

Click the OK Button

From the VIEW menu choose Visual Basic to see the VB Toolbar

Click the VISUAL BASIC EDITOR button.

From the menu choose INSERT then MODULE

Paste the following into the module:

[VBA code goes here]

-Jim
