ENCOUNTERED AN ERROR, CAN I RECOVER DOCUMENT???

Posted: 08 Dec 2004 08:49 PM PST

By the way,
there are a myriad of ways to prompt you to save ,

An oven timer, alarm clock etc etc.

or, Just set the time of your local Anti Virus Program to do an update
in 20 minutes or so, when the screen prompt appears
cancel , re set in another 20 minutes, and save your Works file.

Saving your file will soon become second nature ALT F / S

| Hi..............,
| It is very unlikely that your file exists, it has probably gone.
|
| You may do an advanced file search for all files that were
| created very near to the time of the system crash and ascertain
| if any of the files are likely to contain the remnants of your work.
|
| The message came to inform you that the system had crashed.
|
| The option to send a report to Microsoft is a way of creating a
| database of faults, and hopefully for Microsoft to provide fixes
| for them. (Details are available when the message shows ).
|
|
| When typing long documents it is prudent to save every 10 to
| 15 minutes, the amount of time for which you would not wish to
| repeat the typing. It is also prudent to save in serial order, such
| that you may retrace your steps , if need be.
|
|
| Perhaps create a file and save it as Deanna1.wps (say), type for
| 10 to 15 minutes and save again. Type for another 15 minutes and
| save as Deanna2.wps and so on.
|
|
| Good luck in your search ...

Hi Chuck,

I do not believe that there is a user-configurable setting for the
Footnote font that can be saved in a template file.

You can select (individual) footnotes and format, as required.

Date & Time merge problems

Posted: 04 Dec 2004 08:02 PM PST

Kevin, after looking at my "DATE" forumula, I found that it did not handle
12:00 AM to 12:59 AM correctly. I showed as "0:00 AM or 0:45 AM, etc.).
Here is my fix (also includes you correction to the AM / PM part):

=STRING(HOUR(timefield)-12*(HOUR(timefield)>12)+12*(HOUR(timefield)=0),0)& LEFT(":0",1+(MINUTE(timefield)<10))&STRING(MINUTE( timefield),0)&CHOOSE(HOUR(timefield)<12,"
PM"," AM")

Thanks again for your time.

Works 4.5a and calendar pop up reminders not working

Posted: 04 Dec 2004 10:55 AM PST

Hi Horatio,

Open Works Calendar and set a reminder to occur, say, five minutes
into the future.

Close Works Calendar.

Locate the file WksCalRem.exe and double-clicked it, this should cause
reminders to be monitored. Although nothing appears to have happened
the program is loaded into memory and is monitoring the reminders.

If it is operating correctly the new reminder should appear shortly.

If the reminder is displayed, then placing the shortcut into the Startup
folder should do the same thing.

The Startup folder ensures that you will not have run WksCalRem again,
it should happen automatically,on each and every Startup.

HTH,

Thankyou,
That certainly is a plus.

|
| iCalendar is a widely accepted internet standard for calendar data exchange

font size settings seem to be "off" somehow

Posted: 14 Jun 2013 12:33 PM PDT

I'm using Word 2010 with Windows XP, and have the font set at 12, however it looks too small on the screen.

When I increase the font to 24 for example, it looks like font 12 on the screen.  However, it prints out very large.

I first noticed this problem after I set up a new printer.  When I tried to print something off the internet or an email, the print would be very tiny and only a small portion of the image would show up.  I called the printer manufacturer (Brother), and they said the problem was with the internet provider.  I ended up changing internet providers.  Now I can print fine from email or internet, but Word documents are not printing properly.

Any suggestions as to what I might try to fix this problem.

Thank you

Keyboard locked

Posted: 14 Jun 2013 11:11 AM PDT

On start up windows installer kicked in, just updated to new windows installer.  Only in MS Word the keyboard entry seems to be disabled.  All other functions seems to be normal, but cannot enter any test from keyboard.  Cursor is locked to first position in upper left corner of new document.  Opening an existing word document works but keyboard is locked so cannot edit document.  When word art is selected allows me to enter text into text box but not into the document itself

cross reference to heading style

Posted: 14 Jun 2013 07:54 AM PDT

When you put in a cross reference to a heading style and toggle the style you get something like this:

Where does this number come from and can it be changed to something more recognisable?

There's a download for that called err2343.exe. can't

before installing Office2K again. Alternatively, you need
to install Office 2K before you install Notes.
 

is it easy to install office 2003

Posted: 08 Sep 2004 12:05 AM PDT

Ok, the Office2003 disc is brand new and not been used before. So I take it,
that'll be fine then! Bloomin' good job as I can't believe how much they
cost. I went into a computer shop and they said around £100 and that dosen't
even include everything.
So I suppose the only way to prevent everything being wiped (as I saved
everything in Office Word documents) is to save it onto CD then?
I have to say, this 'chat-room' is excellent, don't you think?

Office 97 Pro & Windows XP Pro SP2

Posted: 06 Sep 2004 03:18 AM PDT


Steve,

This problem arises with most old Microsoft software. SP2 is designed to force customers buy new software. Office 97 is 7 years old and so according to uncle Bill it should be replaced even if you want to use it for basic spreadsheet or wordprocessing purposes. You have to understand that if software packages are not replaced regularly, then Microsoft can't make any money. Why should customers continue using the same software for life?.

The alternative is to have self destruct button so that after every 3 years the software will not install. Perhaps uncle Bill is worried of Anti-trust commission!

Hi garfield-n-odie,

Thanks for the help.

I actually already tried renaming the key "Data" and it did not help. Since
your post, I tried the /a switch, it too did not help.

But since this is related to only one certain document, I'm not going to
worry about it. When I create a new doc and test the same, all is fine.

Strange that it's only effected one certain doc.

Activating Office 2003 on new computer.

I doubt it is an OEM if the OP states the computer is too old and slow.
Since Office came out last year, any computer purchased in this time frame
would have been more than fast enough. And I doubt that anyone considers a

Hi,

We have 29 copies of Office 2003 Basic Edition and 27 of them have been
installed on to computers in the office -- unfortunately, only 25 of the 29
copies are marked as to which computers they are on. I know this question
has been posed on these newsgroups many times, but I have not heard a
definite "yes" or "no", so here it is again.. Can I figure out what Product
Key was used on a computer to install Office 2003?

I would like to determine which 2 of the unmarked 4 CDs are unused so I can
install the last two copies of Office 2003.

I have downloaded the "Magic Jelly Bean" software referenced in some of the
posts but it does not find the Office 2003 key, and since the site and the
software have not been updated since 2003 I'm thinking the site is inactive.

Thanks,

Using consistent mount points for USB & Firewire ieee1394 drives

Posted: 28 Aug 2004 08:31 AM PDT

begin com (hish) dedi ki:
 

You can mount your USB volumes based on volume-label instead of device
name. E.g:

As root issue:
# e2label /dev/sdc1 USBPART1

and then in /etc/fstab:
LABEL=USBPART1 /mnt/myusb1 ext3 defaults 1 2

so the first partition on the USB drive will always mount as /mnt/myusb1
regardless of which device it is on.
 

Alternatively you can get your USB device recognized consistently, as
explained in other posts.

Any way to avoid using GRUB

You could use lilo.
Something has to load the operating system. The bios is too stupid and has
noidea where the operating systems are loaded on the disk. This is done by
a bootloader. Aso Something has to uncompress the linux kenrel, and jump to
the beginning of the kernel code . These things ae done by lilo or grub.
Linux can boot all sorts of operating systems. Including Windows.
HOwever if you would rather use the Windows bootloader to load the OS
youcan but then lilo or grub has to be installed in the partition that
contains /boot.

Besides how badly pcnfsd sucked when Sun wrote it, and for which they should
have been castigated and had all their servers replaced with Samba servers

Oh, wait, I did that years ago. Never mind.....

Hmmm...how to see Windows from LInux?

begin com (David Hill) dedi ki:
 

Find out which partition is "E" on, either with graphical admin utilities
provided with your distro, or from the command line (as root):
# cfdisk /dev/hda (touch nothing, and exit via "Q")

Assuming that,
hda1 -> C
hda2 -> E
hda5 -> Linux

either add that partition as a mount point via graphical admin
utilities provided with your distro, or edit /etc/fstab (as root) and add
the line below:
/dev/hda2 /mnt/e auto defaults 0 0

It is a good practice to save your original fstab via
cp -a /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.orj

and create the mount point via:
mkdir /mnt/e

P.S: It is a good practice to save your original fstab via
# cp -a /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.orj

P.P.S: I suggest you change E from NTFS to FAT32, so that E will be
accessed r/w by Linux (as opposed to r/o).

P.P.P.S: It is also a good practice to split Linux installation to 2
partitions, one for /home (as much as you can allocate) and the other for
the rest (4-6G). It is analogous to splitting a Windows installation to C
and D. When you reinstall Linux, only the system will be written over.
Your /home partition would be intact (depending on your choice while
installing), so you would be able to carry your personal data from one
install to another.

Boot Problem after Install

Another frequent cause is this awful LABEL usage

You could use the first CD in rescue mode

Is there a way to build an account from an existing Outlook 2003/Exchange 2003 Contact?

Posted: 02 Apr 2004 08:22 AM PST

I installed the migration framework, but I have not tried to use it. I just
have a hundred or so accounts to create, and I guess I can just cut and
paste data between existing contacts and the Account form. I just want to
make sure there was not something simple in the box to do this.

MSCRM Outlook Client + c360/ISV

Posted: 02 Apr 2004 02:11 AM PST

Mary,

All our tools (and all ISV solutions for that matter) work in the Outlook
client in ONLINE mode only. When users go offline, Microsoft CRM does not
hide the links which may lead users to believe that they can use these tools
but it fails when they click on the links because CRM is attempting to
connect to your web server.

To enable SearchPac in the Oulook client: take a look at section 7 on pages
8 and 9 of the installation guide. Also, the SearchPac ZIP file contains a
sample configuration file that you can simply save in the _resources folder
on your CRM server to enable this.

Accounts), using custom tables sitting outside of the MSCRM DB but within
SQL Server (& our own aspx pages etc). We have been successful on the web
client, but I'm looking for a rough idea about how complex it would be to
implement on the Outlook client Offline. 
however I'm not so sure about the aspx pages would work - does it require a
great deal of extra configuration? Is it even possible? 

IE Browser Problems

Posted: 01 Apr 2004 09:32 PM PST

I have also had this problem except on a clean install. I am testing it for use for some customers, and have one server and one workstation. When I try to browse to the user interface sometimes I get there and sometimes I don't. Once there I can't access all of the tabs..

You need to remove the MSDE install and the registry keys that are created for

Dates in Workflow

Posted: 01 Apr 2004 04:21 PM PST

Hi Cindy,

Actually It's one problem from Ms.CRM that it can't handle date in workflow
if you use it as is. FYI, Your problem is almost the same with me but now, I
already can handle it. I want to send email to each contact who got birthday
today.
First, you have to add boolean field in contact
Second, create Workflow that use that field. If that field True create your
action (Use Manual Event), don't forget to update that field into false
after it
Third, create console app. that can execute that workflow by using CRM SDK
1.2
Forth, create a job in SQL, give True value in that field if today is their
birthday and run your console app.
And then schedule it to run everyday.

If the other reader have another solution, please tell me it.

Good luck,

E-Mail Exchange Router

Posted: 01 Apr 2004 08:06 AM PST

Am I reading this correctly? You sending an email from a CRM user using Outlook
Express and you want it to get captured in CRM? This is not supported. If you
want the outbound email to be put into CRM, it needs to originate in CRM.

Comparison Table

Posted: 01 Apr 2004 07:22 AM PST

MS CRM claims to do some of Saleslogix and Accpac/et al.
I am living on this newsgroup wondering if I can use CRM internally to run
my shop.

If MS CRM 1.2 could do 50% of the more mature CRM's, I would implement it in
a second.

MS CRM 1.2 looks good (especially compared to 1.0), but.... who is using it
in production?
Where are the success stories?

Lots of potential, but maybe it is like Access 1.0.
Access 2.0 was the killer app when it took off.
