How to I remove formatting created by the Auto Formatting feature.

Posted: 21 May 2013 07:00 AM PDT

I am revising a document which was created using some of the auto formatting features.  Sometimes it will automatically create a border line if several underlines were used and then the tab key hit.  When revising a document where this has happened, how can I remove the lines?  I tried to turn off the auto format feature for creating the line but can not remove some of the lines that are already there.  Thanks

Word 2010 Web Layout View zoom display issue

Posted: 21 May 2013 03:13 AM PDT

I have a bit of a display issue in Word 2010 in a few specific documents (not all). I have tried copying the file to a new blank doc, no help.

I am assuming there is a setting specific to this document. Page size, margins, orientation are all the same.


In this example document below I have screen captures where you can see that the horizontal ruler is showing only 3" at 90% zoom, with a blank unused area to the right (this is my issue). Part of a picture is displaying outside of the "page" area.

All macros disappeared

Posted: 21 May 2013 12:22 AM PDT

Hi,

Word 2007 
All my macros are missing.
When I open the Developer --->Macros the list is empty.
No matter which one I choose in "Macros in".
I checked the normal.dotm and noticed that there is one called normal.old with yesterday date. and a normal.dotm with today date.
I replaced the old with the dotm file thinkning that some how the file was replaced and the normal.old contains the macros I had.

Any idea how to save my Macros?

thanks in advance.

Error 3343: Unrecognized database format 'C:\Temp\Northwind.accdb"

Posted: 20 May 2013 07:58 AM PDT

I am tasked with connecting to an Access DB from a Word 2010 Macro.  I downloaded the Microsoft sample database and the sample verification code but that does not work either.  I can open the Access database so it does not appear to be corrupted.  Using the following VBA code it appears that I am able to find the database but not open it.

When I execute the following code I receive the Error 3343: Unrecognized database format 'C:\Temp\Northwind.accdb" on the line

                                                 Set dbNorthwind = OpenDatabase(Name:="C:\Temp\Northwind.accdb")

Since I am using Microsoft's sample Access DB and Sample code what am I doing wrong and how do I correct this issue. 

 

Thanks,

 

Sub UsingDAOWithWord()
 Dim docNew As Document
 Dim dbNorthwind As DAO.Database
 Dim rdShippers As Recordset
 Dim intRecords As Integer
 
 'Set docNew = Documents.Add
 Set dbNorthwind = OpenDatabase(Name:="C:\Temp\Northwind.accdb")
 Set rdShippers = dbNorthwind.OpenRecordset(Name:="Shippers")
 For intRecords = 0 To rdShippers.RecordCount - 1
 docNew.Content.InsertAfter Text:=rdShippers.Fields(1).Value
 rdShippers.MoveNext
 docNew.Content.InsertParagraphAfter
 Next intRecords
 rdShippers.Close
 dbNorthwind.Close
End Sub

How do I get Word 2013 to recognize Normal.dotm in Dropbox?

Posted: 20 May 2013 12:34 AM PDT

I have Normal.dotm in Dropbox.  As a result, different computers can use the same defaults.  Works on my macs.  How do I get the PC version of word to do the same.  I tried copying a shortcut called Normal.dotm to the Templates folder but Word was not fooled and made another file called Normal.dotm.  Word was not running when I did the switch.  

Thanks!  

Word 2010 normal style formatting

Posted: 19 May 2013 04:32 AM PDT

Can anyone help me with this query please?

 

The main body of my 11 page document has Normal Style applied throughout.   However, I would like there to be a line space between each paragraph but at the moment it is appearing as one massive paragraph in between other Heading Styles.   How can I adapt this Normal style to this particular document so that paragraphs have a blank line between them?

 

 

i am trying to use the Combine Documents feature in Word 2007 but without success.

Posted: 18 May 2013 08:05 PM PDT

the "original document" is:

 

wan too tree

 

there are 3 misspellings. The author of the document sends it to three reviewers. Reviewer1 observes only one of the errors and writes:

 

one too tree

 

and sends it to the author, titled "doc1". Reviewer2 also receives the original document, see only one error and writes:

 

wan two tree

 

and sends it to the author, titled "doc2". Reviewer3 also receives the original document, see only one error and writes:

 

wan too three

 

and sends it to the author, titled "doc3".

 

The author receives all three revisions. She opens the Combine Documents dialog box, enters "original document"  in the left box and "doc1" in the right box, clicks OK and what she sees is:

 

one too three

 

and saves this file as "doc1". So far, so good. Now the author enters "doc1" in the left box of the dialog box, and "doc2" in the right box, and what she sees is:

 

wan one two tree

 

In others words, the deleted "wan" has REAPPEARED!! The author saves the file as "doc2".  She enters this file in the left box and "doc3" in the right box of the dialog box, clicks OK and what she sees is:

 

wan one too two three

 

In others words, the deleted "too" has REAPPEARED!!

 

Obviously, this is not what we want to see. As an additional comment, when working in Word 2003 with its different boxes, etc., the above problems did not appear.

 

I hope you can help

Corrupted word doc: Details: Equal expected. Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line 2, Column 12595

Posted: 17 May 2013 10:42 AM PDT

Was writing a research paper and this is what popped up as the error. I believe if I can remove the offending code I can recover most of it. Have tried the recovery tool. DOCx salvager. Word repair tool. Opening in OpenOffice. Opening in Text. Pretty much everything under the sun, but I don't have in depth knowledge on how to remove that code. Thanks so much for any help.

Office Home & Student 2013 stopped working

Posted: 16 May 2013 08:19 AM PDT

I have a new HP all in one computer with Windows 8 and Office Home & Student 2013 installed.  All were installed in Feb'13 by Staples.  Everything has been working fine.  This morning, I tried to open Word, and a message comes up:"Office is busy.  Winword.exe can't be used right now because Office is busy..Come back later.."  That was 4 hours ago. I also tried accessing Excel and Powerpoint, and the same message came up.  Any suggestions?

Word 2013 mail merge

Posted: 16 May 2013 08:15 AM PDT

This is the first time I've done a mail merge with the new version. Figured everything out except for one thing, and I can't find anything about it anywhere.

My problem is this: In previous versions, I had the ability to add-in text for every label in the merge, within the address block. For example, everyone I send to is in Ohio, so instead of having a separate column in my Excel sheet with just a bunch of OH's in it, I would add "OH" in between the <<city>> and <<zip>> parts of the address block. I can't seem to be able to do that anymore.

Am I missing something??

Thanks in advance!

Alignment on Resume Maker

Posted: 16 May 2013 07:24 AM PDT

I'm using one of the Microsoft resume makers.  I need to undo the automatic format so I can add and align some items that are not called for on the template but I don't want to change the alignment on anything that I've already typed.

Steve,
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "nominal value" but let me expand
a bit on what Jack said. Lets say a task started in June 2004 and is
scheduled to complete in Aug 2004. Even though the task is shown as 100%
complete in July Actual Work values will show in the Resource Usage view
through the task end in August. An important step was missed. Since the
task in fact completed early, an Actual Finish date representing the
date the task finished needs to be entered by the user. Project has no
way of knowing when the task finished unless you tell it.
