Printing Macro Error

Posted: 16 May 2013 05:48 AM PDT

I'm using a macro created in Word 2003 but doesn't work in Word 2010.  I get a run time error (5843) that says something is out of range.  This is the line of code where the error occurs.  Application.MailingLabel.CreateNewDocument Name:="8167", Address:="", AutoText:=""  Any help will be appreciated.

Word 2007; won't open a doc sent to me but does open what I created.

Posted: 15 May 2013 09:16 PM PDT

I get the minutes from an organization I belong to and could open them easily through Word.  Now I click on the attachment, open, which opens Word but doesn't open the doc.  I tried opening previous minutes I had saved and opened in the past, but now can't open them.  Any doc I created I can still open.

How can I delete a page with text on it?

Posted: 15 May 2013 04:44 PM PDT

If I have text on a page and I don't like what I see, how can I just delete the whole page? In the Help area I see how to delete everything but the whole page. Is there a delete button that will get rid of the page without storing it? I don't want to click on the X and close the program.

number of pages initially wrong on first page when "different first page" selected

Posted: 15 May 2013 03:09 PM PDT

Hello,

I am seeing a problem with the "number of pages" field in the footer on the first page of a Word document when I have selected "different first page".  If I make an update to the first page of the document, or even double-click on the footer, then the number of pages field is corrected.  If I then save and close the document after the number of pages field is correct and re-open.  It displays incorrectly.

Steps to reproduce:
1.  Create blank new DOCX.
2.  Insert a page break (so now there are two pages in the document).
3.  double-click the footer on the first page and select the "different first page" checkbox on the "header and footer tools" ribbon.
4.  Add "Page X of Y" to the footer on the first page using the "Page Number" button on the "header and footer tools" ribbon.
5.  Add "Page X of Y" to the footer on the second page using the "Page Number" button on the "header and footer tools" ribbon.
At this point the first page says "Page 1 of 2" and the second page says "Page 2 of 2".  This is what you would expect.
6.  Save and close the document.
7.  Re-open the document.
At this point the first page says "Page 1 of 1" and the second page says "Page 2 of 2".  The first page is wrong.
8.  Double click the footer to enter footer mode. (I could also update all fields or several other things)
At this point the first page says "Page 1 of 2" and the second page says "Page 2 of 2".  Now it looks right.

I understand that this is a screen display problem, and it will print correctly if I wanted to print it.  I need it to display correctly when a user first opens the document.  I don't want to add a VBA macro to tell it to update fields after opening.

Thanks,

Jake

The "symbol" category has disappeared from the "insert" pull-down. How do I get it back?

ERROR: Word cannot start the converter mswrd632

Posted: 15 May 2013 08:30 AM PDT

I'm a fiction writer who receives partially book-formatted galleys from my editor. This last time, I got the above error. Couldn't get out of the error box, so kept clicking OK and doc opened. Made my edits but the doc does this every time I open. I'm hesitant to implement the below fix as I'm not sure if it can be reversed easily should it causes me more grief; such as, not allowing me to open any of my editors future book formatted docs. This has never happened before with Word 2010 on any past documents with this editor. I've Windows XP. We both use Word 2010. Any advice? I need this resolved.

 

HERE'S WHAT I FOUND IN THE TUTORIALS: (the piece I'm hestitant to try)

 

ERROR: Word cannot start the converter mswrd632

 

I plugged the above error message into your website and found the below. I'm hesitant to do it for fear I can't open my editors docs. Worse yet, that I can't easily put the deletes path back.

 

Look at the "Known Issues" section of this Microsoft article.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/973904

<excerpt>
Let me fix it myself To unregister the mswrd632 converter yourself, edit the registry as follows:

1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.

2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Text Converters\Import\MSWord6.wpc

3. On the Edit menu, click Delete.

4. Click Yes.

5. Exit Registry Editor.

This change will effectively unregister the converter and disable it for third-party applications and for Microsoft Office. Microsoft Office will use its own text converters to open these kinds of files.

Hi,

Well , few months back one of our client also experiened some kind of issue. We had sucesfully fixed this using following methods

Remove below registery key.

1. HKEY_LOCAL_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Text Converters\Import\MSWord6.Wpc

Remove following files also.

1. C:\Program files\Common files\Microsoft Shared\TextConv\msword632.cnv

2. C:\Program files\Common files\Microsoft SHared\TextConv\msrd832.cnv

Cheers!!!!!!!!!!!

Table styles in embedded documents

Posted: 15 May 2013 07:20 AM PDT

I am storing an embedded document that contains a table with an applied table style.  When the embedded document opens, the table style is not applied unless its name equals its ID--i.e., it has no spaces.  (A quick look inside a docx reveals that style IDs are the style names with all spaces removed.)  Styles whose name contains no spaces are applied; styles whose name contains spaces are not.  Why?

Windows 7 Printing Problem

Posted: 13 May 2013 06:23 AM PDT

I have Windows 7 with Microsoft Word 2010 starter, it all works fine on the screen, but will not convey 'shapes' to my HP deskjet 1280.  Prints ordinary  type all day long, and will print photos, but will not print 'shapes' (e.g. squares, circles etc in Word) which I use for diagrams.
