Can't select the graph colours I want

Posted: 27 Jun 2013 05:24 AM PDT

I had to repair my version of Word 365 and now when I copy a graph from excel to word the colour changes.  Any bars/lines that were red, accent 2 in excel become orange, accent 2 in word and I cannot for the life of me see a way to change it back!  Everything was fine before I repaired.  Even when I highlight the graph in word and go to CHART TOOLS, DESIGN, CHANGE COLOR, there is no colour scheme available with Red, accent 2!

Please help,

How to get a little space between items in list?

Posted: 26 Jun 2013 05:13 PM PDT

I have two lists in my document, one bulleted and the other numbered, and I would like a little bit of space between each item in each list - maybe 4 points, 6 points at most. However, when I try to achieve this via the 'Space After' and 'Space Before' spinners in the Paragraph dialog (assuming, quite naturally, that each list item is a paragraph since it ends with a carriage return (pilcrows show up after each one when I click on the 'Show paragraphs etc.' button), Word just ignores me. And I can find nothing in the 'Create a list' button dialogs that addresses the question, either.

Thanks for you help,

How can I get an unnumbered heading into my Document Map?

Posted: 26 Jun 2013 05:02 PM PDT

The headings in the book I'm just about finished writing are numbered 1, 1.1, 1.1.1, etc. Thanks to recent help from Suzanne Barnhill they work correctly all the way through 1.1.1.1, which is all I have or want. They all appear in my Document Map, and all are indented appropriately, i.e. with each level starting just to the right of the heading type above it. But now I want two more headings to appear in my Document Map: One for the Glossary and one for the References  section. I want them to appear in the correct order (namely Glossary after the last numbered heading, and References below that, which is where they in fact reside in the document), but I do not want them to have numbers by them since they're not part of the document proper.

I can add new headings (based on an un-used heading that give a new name to and save), and they look fine but they do not appear in the Document Map. If I do select these headings in the document, and declare them to be Heading 1, they appear exactly where they should be in the Document Map, but with the pesky numbers attached to them. Then when I re-assign them to my numberless heading, they disappear from the Document Map.

What to do?

Thanks for your help,

Peyton

Name in the end tag element must match the element type

Posted: 26 Jun 2013 05:31 AM PDT

I am working on a large word file (Word 2013) (27 MB/35 pages)  with some photos and text boxes.  I saved the file and now cannot reopen it.  I am getting the error" The name in the end tag element must match the element type in the start tag".  I tried the MS fixit program however it was not able to run on my computer.   Hope someone on here might be able to help me fix the file.

Dual Figure/Table Autonumbering

Posted: 25 Jun 2013 10:16 PM PDT

Advice please!
The document requires figures and tables in the main document to be numbered in the usual manner, i.e. Table 1, Figure 1, etc, but tables and figures in the attachments—which are part of the main Word document—be numbered e.g. Table A-1.1 (the first table in Attachment 1), Figure A-2.2 (the second figure in Attachment 2) , etc. Is this possible? If yes, please advise how one can achieve this. Also, how can one incorporate the attachment number in the table/figure number? The standard method seems to allow the inclusion of heading numbers only.

The line happens on three pages and goes from the left margin to the right margin, whether the page has footnotes or not.  On the first occurrence, a footnote began on the previous page and continued on the page wtih the long line on it.  On the second occurrence, there are no footnotes on that page, but there are footnotes that start and end on the previous page.  On the third occurrence, there are footnotes on the previous page, the same page and the following page.

blank pages appearing as page numbers added to document

Posted: 25 Jun 2013 09:30 AM PDT

I am trying to build a document with: Front Matter consisting of a Cover, Table of Contents and a List Of Figures using Word 2010 running under Win7. This is followed by about 60 pages of text (with Chapter headings) and figures(actually pictures). Front Matter uses the iii form of page number and the Text/Figures uses the 1,2,3 form of page number. All works fine except for Word adding several "blank" pages after the Front Matter. Something I am forgetting or doing wrong must be causing this. Here is what I do:

  • Use INSERT tab to add two blank pages in front of the text for the TOC and the LOF
  • Precede each chapter header with Word's Header1, Header2, Header3 Styles
  • Precede each Figure with Header5 Style
  • Put a Section Break(next page) immediately before the 1st character of the text to seperate the Front Matter from the Text/Figures
  • Delink Section 1 and Section 2, close Headers and Footers
  • Scroll to the 1st blank page
  • Position the cursor in about the middle of this page
  • Select the REFERENCES Tab
  • Click the Table of Contents icon producing the TOC on the 1st page
  • Scroll to the next blank page 
  • Position the cursor in about the middle of this page
  • Under the REFERENCES Tab click the List of Figures icon
  • Using OPTIONS under List of Figures specify to Word that the Header5 style is used for figures
  • Clicking OK twice produces the List of Figures
  • Scroll to 1st page of text
  • Open Headers and Footers and select Page numbers, specify that 1,2,3 type should be placed in center top of page, start at 1
  • Scroll to TOC
  • Open Headers and Footers and select Page Numbers, specify that iii type be placed at center top of page, start at i
  • Close Headers and Footers 
  • Click the Cover Page icon under the INSERT tab

BUT SOMEHOW TWO BLANK PAGES HAVE BEEN ADDED FOLLOWING THE LOF. These pages don't seem to be DELETEable

 

Can anyone tell me what I have omitted or not done?

replacing resources across multiple tasks and projects

Posted: 10 Aug 2004 10:12 AM PDT

This is one excellent use of the Resource Assignment box. On the
standard toolbar is a tool with 2 human heads on it. Click on that,
and the Resource Assignment box appears. Select all tasks with the
resource you want to replace assigned to them (if there are a lot,
apply the "using resource" filer). Select as many of these as you can
(this will be limited by available memory, so closing other apps may
help do more at once). Select the resource's name in the Resource
Assignment box, the click on the "Replace" button. A dialog box will
appear, with the same list of resources you just had in the Resource
Assignment box. Select the resource you want to replace the other
with. Click OK.
One of the nice parts of using this method is that any partial
assignments on the original resource will be replicated for the
replacement resource.
Best of luck.

Filtering for Critical Path of Specific Task

Posted: 10 Aug 2004 08:20 AM PDT

You have several problems. A major one, IMHO, is your use of Must Finish
On constraints for your key deliverables. A constraint in the scheduling
engine is not the same thing as a constraint in the world of your project.
You are using Must Finish On to mean "this is when we have to have this done
by or we are in deep trouble" but that's NOT what a constraint means in
Project. To Project, a "constraint" means that this task will ALWAYS be
shown happening per the constraint, even if it is physically impossible for
it do do so according to the durations and links of the preceeding tasks.
Consider task A and B, each 5 days duration, starting next Monday. That
task sequence will finish 10 days later. They lead to a finish milestone.
Simple FS links A->b->Finish. If I put a MFO constraint on the milestone of
1 September, indicating that's when the contract says we have to finish,
guess what Project shows? It shows task A running from 16 Aug to 20 Aug,
task B from 23 Aug to 27 Aug and then a gap until the milestone occurs,
scheduled on 01 Sep. But when did the milestone REALLY occur? 27 Aug!
Using the constraint caused the milestone to be shown occuring at a date
that is patently in error. So we take another tack. Let's put a Must
Finish No Later Than constraint of 01 Sep on it instead. Now Project shows
the milestone occuring 27 Aug, the correct date. But we still have a
problem. We blew it and task B was grossly under-estimated and actually
takes 10 days instead of 5. Now task B finishes on 03 Sep. But wait,
looking at our milestone it shows finishing the project 01 Sep, right on
schedule!!!!! Again, obviously an error - we CAN'T be finishing on time
because the predecessor that MUST be finished for us to really be done with
all the work actually isn't finished until 2 days later!

A second problem is the use of the term "critical path." It seems like you
are using the term to mean "the important task sequence for producing a
deliverable." But that's not it. As Project (and CPM in general) uses the
term, the critical path is the sequence of events that determines the
overall duration of the entire project. There is no such thing as a
"critical path to a deliverable" unless that particular deliverable just
happens to lie on the critical path of events to the end of the project.
There may be lots of deliverables in a project whose delay to some extent
would not result in a delay of the overall completion of the project and by
definition they are not critical. For instance, I have an application
development project that requires 1 month design, 4 months programming and
testing, and 1 month rollout. I can write the user's manual any time after
design is done because at that point the functionality is locked down and
the programmers write to the design specs. Training is a part of rollout
and I won't actually use the user's manual until we begin training. Writing
the manual is not a critical task or deliverable, even though it's really
really really important, unless it's delayed into the 6th month and the
delay causes training and thus completion of rollout to be delayed,. It is
not a critical deliverable, does not lie on the critical path, and there is
no critical path leading up to it UNLESS it gets delayed more than 4 months
from when it could have been started. At that point, its schedule becomes
the determining factor in the date of the conclusion of all the project work
and so it becomes critical and the critical path shifts to include the
sequence leading to and from it.

Over-allocation indicator - for specific task duration.

Posted: 09 Aug 2004 11:31 PM PDT

Hi Steve and thanks for response!

There is no importance which task was 'first' - if there is an
over-allocation on specific day - all tasks that take place in that place are
'suspicious' - and I want them to be marked (by the indicator field for
example).

My problem is to recognize onle these tasks that 'involved' in the
over-allocation.

Calendar and Change Working Time (Use default)

Posted: 07 Aug 2004 10:15 AM PDT

Use set the "default" start and end times on the Tools, Options, Calendar
page. Those defaults do NOT change anything in the working times calendar
or modify its defaults. In fact, nothing on that entire page has any effect
on the working time calendar at all, contrary to what the names of the
fields appear to indicate.

Here's what it does do. First of all, make note that ALL date fields are
actually date/time fields. You may choose whether to display the times or
not but they're always going to be there. When you enter a task name and
duration, normally Project calculates its start and end date/time for you
based on the Project calendar, predecessor relationships, and resource
availability. But you may, for some particular reason, wish to set a
constraint on the task and one easy way to do it is to over-ride the
calculated start or end date with your own entry (and that's the only time
you should EVER enter something in those two columns). If you enter
something in the Start field, Project sets a Start No Earlier Than
constraint of the date you entered. But it also needs to know what time to
include in that entry as well. If you click in the Start field and select a
date from the little popup calendar, it uses your Project Calendar's working
hours to determine what time on the selected date to use. But if you
manually type in the date without explicitly including a time in your entry,
it uses whatever you've set as the "Default Start Time" on the calendar
options page.
