Microsoft Word - Numbers won't appear when typed

Microsoft Word - Numbers won't appear when typed

Numbers won't appear when typed

Posted: 10 Jun 2013 09:55 AM PDT

I'm using MS Word 2010.  When I type letters they show up just fine.  When I type numbers in the body of the work they do not appear.  The cursor does move (so the keyboard is functioning).  When I delete the invisible numbers and switch to a different "style" or type in BOLD font the numbers will appear.  Any ideas how to fix this?

How do I add an Underline with VBA code

Posted: 10 Jun 2013 07:41 AM PDT

I am lloking for some help in underlining some words in my header. The code below is waht I have so far except the underlining. The bolded and underlined words in my code need to be underlined with VBA. Any help would be great.

 

Sub AddHeadfoot()
    Dim oHF As HeaderFooter
    Dim oSection As Section
    For Each oSection In ActiveDocument.Sections
        For Each off In oSection.Headers
            off.Range.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = Word.WdParagraphAlignment.wdAlignParagraphCenter
            off.Range.Text = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" + vbCrLf + "XXXXXX XXX XXXXX XXXXXX"
            off.Range.Font.Size = 12
            off.Range.Font.Bold = wdToggle
        Next
        For Each off In oSection.Footers
            off.Range.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = Word.WdParagraphAlignment.wdAlignParagraphLeft
            off.Range.Text = "XXXXXXXXX  D12444-XXXXX" + vbTab + vbTab + "XX-XX-XX" + vbCrLf + vbTab + vbTab + "Page" + vbCrLf + vbTab + vbTab + "XXX X DATE X"
            off.Range.Font.Size = 10

i want to define auto-numbering in my CAPTIONS to use the number of the preceding heading style

Posted: 10 Jun 2013 07:13 AM PDT

i need to follow a strange numbering practice for some documents I'm working on. I'd like to be able to rely on auto-numbering, but haven't figured out how to do it for this req'mt. I have a numbered para document with figures. Instead of numbering the figures sequentially as the default Word "Caption" does (i.e., Figure 1, Figure 2, etc) the client wants the figs numbered according to the preceding para no. like this:

9.1 blah, blah, blah iaw w/ figure 9.1-1

==insert figure here==
Figure 9.1-1

9.2 blah, blah, blah

   9.2.1 blah, blah, blah iaw figure 9.2.1-1 and figure 9.2.1-2

       ==insert figure here==
Figure 9.2.1-1

==insert figure here==
Figure 9.2.1-2

Hopefully, you can see my problem. 9.x = Heading 2, 9.x.x = Heading 3. If it was just a matter of using figures at one heading I might use a Style Ref code and a "-[SEQ?]" but I'm not sure how to reset the SEQ code at the next use of the target Style Ref. However, since I have figures at Heading 2 and Heading 3, I don't think i can use the Style Ref anyway. I've been trying (unsuccessfully) to get the client to use a more reasonable numbering system, but they insist on this with the result that figures and x-refs to figures are manually entered, then become out-of-sync on edits. Any ideas?

Customer Fill In Sections

Posted: 10 Jun 2013 04:20 AM PDT

I am creating a form for work and I want to be able to have the customer fill out the form on one of our Windows 8 tablets. I want to be able to have the form say "First Name" and then when the customer clicks it they can type in their name.

I know you can do this in adobe and create it as PDF, but I'd much rather have it in word.

Font missing in Office 2013

Is there anyway i can install this font in Office 2013?

Selecting all text in Edit Hyperlink box

Posted: 09 Jun 2013 11:31 AM PDT

I frequently want to rename a hyperlink using the Edit Hyperlink pop-up box in Word.  First step is to select the entire old name in the "Test to Display" box, but this is difficult since the margin for error in placing the cursor for either select all by back right arrow or for dragging across the existing text is VERY small and hard to find.  Is there a more robust, ie easier, way to select all the text in the Test to Display box so that I can do a type over and replace? 

office 2010 word copy problems

Posted: 08 Jun 2013 06:59 PM PDT

My windows 8 computer recently corrupts documents that I copy from the internet to a word 2010 document.  It worked ok at first, but now it copies the document over correctly, but when I scroll down, the pages separate, repeat lines, move over to the side, and generally are corrupted.  This happens with all documents, so is not just a problem with a specific site.

using shortcuts: ctrl + u/i/b

Posted: 07 Jun 2013 08:21 AM PDT

using shortcuts for bold, italic and underlining a word. 

right now when I press ctrl + u/i/b, it only highlights the corresponding button(s) on the toolbar in word. it does no longer actually make the word I have clicked on e.g. bold (with ctrl + b). I have to highlight the word first now. even though before  I could also just "click" on a word, without highlighting it and ctrl + u would underline the word, not only highlight the button.

thanks for any help!

Word 2010 - Template prompts ASK Field issues

Posted: 07 Jun 2013 07:36 AM PDT

Hi

I have created a Word 2010 Macro Enabled Template with "Ask Fields" and "Ref Fields" so the user is prompted to fill these in once the document is opened. In the template when you open it by right clicking and selecting "Open" the following macro runs:

Sub autoopen()

ActiveDocument.Fields.Update

End Sub

I have built in some auto text capabilities to this template. However when I open a new document from the template by clicking and selecting "New" when you right click the template or by double clicking it the macro isn't transferred and doesn't run.

Is there a way to make the Update fields macro run when a new document is created from the template?

Many Thanks in advance

How to change maximum display names in a citation

Posted: 07 Jun 2013 03:36 AM PDT

Hi there,

I use the APA 6 style in Word 2013. I read that when you use 3,4 or 5 authors. The first time you citate it should show all the names, and in the citations following it should show only the first name followed by et al. But Word doesn't do that. It just shows them all, always. 

How do I change that? I read something that you can change some script somewhere? But I couldn't find out how to do that. 

Thanks

How do you regulate your Exchange domain?

Posted: 24 Sep 2004 08:21 AM PDT

I like what Mark says. Technically, he is correct in what to do first.
However, politically, I disagree on what to do first.

You don't want to come in and make enemies. Trust me on that.

The first thing that I would do is discuss, with your management, the option
of cutting down SPAM first. The users will be happy about that. Once the
user environment is happy...

Propose to them two options (note: I don't know the specifics of your
organization, so this is generic):

Option 1) Propose a purchase of a new server with plenty of disk. Note
that a rule of thumb that I use is ~150 people per spindle, dependent upon
utilization...more folks if I am using Outlook 2003 Cached Exchange Mode. I
generally use Windows 2000/2003 standard server and Exchange Server
2000/2003 Enterprise edition. Clustered environments are different.

Option 2) In lieu of this, propose moving some of the largest user's
information to .pst files and implement quotas. Remind management that the
loss of the user's local system could result in the loss of the .pst file if
it is stored on the system. Note that the upper limit of .pst files may be
1.85GB of 2.00GB on older versions (pre-2003) of Outlook.

That way you are leaving it up to management to make the decision on what to
do and you do not seem like the bad guy...and you are providing risk
mitigation information. They will talk to the managers and users, most
likely.

Stories:
I had a very large client in Georgia that would rather purchase more SAN
space than implement quotas for their users. We got a few new servers and a
nice beefy SAN.

On the flipside, I had a client in Virginia that did not want to purchase a
new server or software. They opted to implement quotas and their
management sent an e-mail regarding this. Obviously, there were exceptions
to the rule.

Either way, it was management's decision and I did not seem like the bad
guy.

I'm aware of this setting. I confirmed that it's not enabled.
 

The user can work in offline mode and the message will not open. The minute
he connects to the Exchange server, it will change to show as opened and
read.
We've also tested this by using Outlook WebAccess. The same thing will
occur. Also, regardless of which computer he uses to connect to Exchange,
the same issue occurs so I know that it's not computer specific.

Trying to deploy SP1 for Office 2003?!?

Posted: 24 Aug 2004 10:48 AM PDT

If you mean SMS Administration point, no. I already have an MST for my MSI
that has the product key in there. Now all I am trying to do is patch the
core office installation I have.

Basically I have the CD copied to a directory and an MST applied to the MSI
inside the AD GPO that deploys Office, the only way to deploy SP1 (I assume)
via this method is to now patch my Office 2003 installation.

Which, when I try to do that, it asks for a Product Key...

Someone must be able to answer this, I am not the only one deploying Office
via this method I think I can be at least assured of that.

Office 2003 won't un/re-install, repair, update

Posted: 24 Aug 2004 03:48 AM PDT

Hi,

Based on the article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;826511&Product=off20
03 , please try the following:

1. Select Start > Run; type %TEMP%; in the resulting window, you can find
log files for Office 2003 installation; Open the file: Microsoft Office
2003 Setup(####)_Task(0002).txt where the #### characters in the log file
names are numbers that start with 0001. They increment by one each time
that you run Setup. Therefore, the log file that has the highest number is
the log file for the most recent time that you ran Setup.

2. Reply to this posting with the data present in the above said file.

Office de-activation?

Posted: 23 Aug 2004 02:43 AM PDT

I did

re install the original - format - if this is really
necessary and use phone to reactivate - of course it is re
useable

The advice here is top get an operational basic office and
an operational pro office. If the systems are only setup to
OS and office format to get back to original, if you want to
be really pedantic replace the HD in the first machine and
re activate office using the telephone.

Build another machine around the hard drive from the first
machine and install pro, re activate using the telephone if
necessary.

This person is trying to recover from an error, they have
done nothing illegal and will not if they want to be a
lateral,

A bit of thinking yourself might help

Deploying Office 2003

Posted: 19 Aug 2004 04:04 PM PDT

The vast majority of the pre-existing versions of Office
were installed manually, can the custom maintenance wizard
run against those installations? The current installations
are also any of three different versions of Office from 97
through to XP, can I set up something to test for version
and the run the appropriate maintenance wizard? Can these
two things be set up as part of the new install of Office
2003 so they are executed before the new version is
installed?

I was hoping that maybe there was a way that I could trick
the removal wizard into removing everything to do with
previous versions of Office so that it can all happen as
part of the new install.

Btw, the new installs are going to be deployed using Group
Policy, if that helps.
