Microsoft Word - Word 2010 - Figure and Table Captions w_Chapter Number are Wrong

Microsoft Word - Word 2010 - Figure and Table Captions w_Chapter Number are Wrong

Word 2010 - Figure and Table Captions w_Chapter Number are Wrong

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 03:18 PM PDT

We do a considerable number of engineering documents with heading levels often going down 4 to 5 levels.  In Word 2003, when inserting Figure and Table Captions, I selected Numbering.... include chapter number.  From then on, everything advanced and numbered correctly as I proceeded thru the document.... and regardless of what level the caption was inserted into... then comes 2010

 

My headings are

 

1.0

  Table 1.0-1

1.1

  Table 1.1-1

  Table 1.1-2

1.1.1

  Table 1.1.1-1

1.2

  Table 1.2-1

  Table 1.2-2

1.2.1

  Tab;e 1/2.1-1

1.2.2 etc

 

Question?  for this type of level numbering, do you have to reset the heading level for each of the headings?  Example:  section 1.0 (which I cannot get to show the "0" for the life of me) set heading to (1).... for section 1.1, set heading to (2)... for section 1.1.1, set heading to (3) etc.?  Don't remember having to do this in 2003 for the program to recognize what heading level the caption was being inserted into.  Is there a setting or problem with my headings that this is NOT numbering correctly?  While playing with a document to post this question, I set 1.0 (heading 1) and when I set 1.1 (to heading 2), my previous 1.0 changed to heading 2.

 

Also - why won't the caption number (i.e., 1.1-1, 1.1-2, 1.1-3) restart at -1 within a section?  As I add captions, the SEQ field numbers change as I change the heading reference in subsequent captions.

 

I checked by opening a 'new blank document' to see what the default heading style was referenced and in the first instance, if referred to heading 2.

 

Why is ithis happening?  Please shed some light on what I may be doing wrong.

Cannot open any application in Home and Student 2010 edition

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 01:54 PM PDT

When I tried to open Word or Excel today in my Home and Student 2010 edition of Office I am asked for an activation code.  I installed this software a year ago (8/4/2012) and it has been working fine. All of my old files are still on my computer  but I cant open them or create a new one.  I haven't made any recent changes to my computer.  Of course, I cannot find the original software box or disc. The activation code is not listed on my Microsoft account probably because I created the account long after I installed the software.  I bought the software originally at Best Buy.  So what happened and how do I fix it?

Problem print envelope, word 2007

of the printing is wrong.  How do I change this orientation?

How to get word 2010 to stick with Adobe Reader 10 for opening PDF files

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 11:26 AM PDT

When saving a word document as a .PDF file, I have the setting set to open the document after saving

 

I get an error message from Word saying;

 

"Could not open file. No program is associated with this file type"

 

How do you associate adobe to open this file type with in the Word program?

 

Outside of Word, my default program to open .PDF files is Adobe Reader 10

Creating columns later in a document that apply only to that point forward

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 10:00 AM PDT

I am using Word 2010.  When I wish to create two columns later in the text of a document, Word applies the columns to the entire document.  When I used Word 2000, one also had the oppoortunity to select where the columns were to start (e.g., this point forward, etc.).  In 2010, the Columns tab under Page Layout automatically applies the structure to the entire document.

 

I am sure that this is an easy "fix!"

Return Address on #10 Envelopes is not Correctly Placed and Cannot be Adjusted Using Word 2010

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 09:56 AM PDT

When printing #10 envelopes the return address prints about 1 and 7/16 inches from the left edge of the envelope.  It previously would start printing about 1/2 inch from the left edge which is where it should be.  When I try to adjust the placement of the return address using the options selection the return address is moved to the left but cut off at 1 and 7/16 inches.  I appears that Word will not allow printing closer to the left edge.  Previously selecting #10 envelopes would start the return address 1/2 inch from the left edge of the envelope.  I have not changed printers. 

 

Any solutions would be appreciated.  Thanks.

forwarding word document by email

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 09:10 AM PDT

I don't think that there is a fix for my issue but you never know!

When I'm looking at a Word document I often want to forward it on to a colleague. In 2003 I would click on "forward as an attachment" and up would pop Outlook with the cursor in the "To:" box and I would then type in the email address and hit the tab key to get to the body of the email if i needed to add a message.

With Office 365 I've worked out how to "forward as an attachment" but the cursor doesn't default to the logical (to me at least) "To:" box but instead jumps to the body of the email and I have to click back into that box.

A minor irritation but it's very frustrating that a simple process has been made more complicated.

Hyperlinks menu option is greyed out and I can't edit links...but it worked yesterday morning........

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 07:29 AM PDT

I am using Word Web App in Chrome. I am very impressed so far, but I did notice that the Links button under the Insert menu was greyed out and I was unable to insert a link. All of a sudden, yesterday morning it was working (both the button and right click) and I was very excited. But then yesterday afternoon when I went to show someone, it was no longer working (either the button or right click) and is still not working now. I have tested accessing the file via Safari on a Mac and no luck there either. This is driving me crazy, please I need help.

[EDIT] I have done some more testing. And if I create a file from scratch, I get all the expected options. So what possible properties could be set up on this one file that does allow me to edit or insert hyperlinks? Does it matter that the file is shared and has track changes on? (Which it did before yesterday morning......)

Windows XP, Windows 7, and Word 2003 dysfunctionality

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 07:13 AM PDT

I'll be moving from Windows XP Home Edition to Windows 7 Professional in a matter of days. As a consequence I will have to switch to new Microsoft Word programs because my two current Word programs, 97 and 2000, are incompatible with Windows 7, even (I hear) in XP Mode. My current plan is to install Word 2003 and one of the newer Word "ribbon" programs and seeing which of these work best relative to my various word processing habits and needs.

In anticipation of the switch, and having a copy of Word 2003, I installed the program on my XP system to familiarize myself with it. All that did was remind me of why I had refused, years ago, to move beyond Word 2000. Already I've found two glitches, which I'll mention momentarily, after explaining the nature of my concern.

What I hope is that these and perhaps other glitches are XP-related and that they will disappear once I migrate to Windows 7. But that's just a theory since the glitches are not reported as best I can tell, let alone traced to XP.  The reason for my hope is that a friend who uses Word 2003 on Vista does not experience them. I would like to bolster the hope and thus ease my migration concerns, and so I would appreciate any guidance the community can offer.

Here are the two glitches:

First, when I left-click on an empty space within a document in an attempt to activate the blinking cursor, the program does not produce the cursor but instead selects the line of text nearest to the click point. If I use the up and down manual cursor keys, the selection function grabs a line above or below the initial line, as the case may be. In order to restore the blinking cursor I have to click within a line of text or click the right arrow on my keyboard. This problem has nothing to do with the EXT function indicated on the status bar, which is the diagnosis I've seen in forum discussions. That function can be turned on and off in my program, and the problem exists even when EXT is off. I have also conformed my selection options (under Tools > Options > Edit) to those of my friend and got no relief on that basis. In particular, this is not a "smart select" problem. 

Second, I am unable to remove hyperlinks globally using my longstanding method, namely, selecting all the text and then pressing Control-Shift + F9. When I do this, the hyperlinks remain in the document. The procedure is so straightforward, and so basic to any and all Word programs, that it needs no further explanation.

Of course there is a third possibility: that my installation introduced problems for some other reason, e.g. that I replaced Word 2000. This itself was odd since when I installed 2003 I asked that it NOT replace 2000, and yet it did so. (I recall this insistence on the program's part years ago, which is why I never kept it on my PC.)

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Mail Merge/Tent Cards

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 06:10 AM PDT

I am creating tent cards for my next course with a list of 50 names and don't want to do each one individually.

So, I've created mail merges on my tent card.... (top and bottom with company logo in the center, mirrored) however, when I fold the card, the participant side sees his name in the correct direction however, the side facing me is obviously upside down. 

Can I fix this?  Is there an easier way to do the mail merge on tent cards?

Thanks in advance

Is it possible to lock the size of a shape in Word 2010?

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 05:17 AM PDT

I have created a form that allows the user to move circles to the number rating they want to give.  I have been able to lock the aspect ratio so the shape always stays a circle, but users are still able to inadvertently change the size of the shape when attempting to move it.  Any suggestions?

Overtype not working in one doc.

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 03:28 AM PDT

A colleague of mine has one Word 2003 document in which he was using overtype mode, but even while he was working in the document overtype became disabled, and now we can't enable it again! It's still working fine in other documents of the same nature, but even in Options under Tools the option to tick or untick overtype mode is completely greyed-out, when that document is open. Is there a way to see how this could have happened and how we could fix it? Thank you very much.

macro replace wildcards for multiple rows in word 2010

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 03:17 AM PDT

I want to make a search/replace macro in word which is on 2 or 3 rows, like this

"art. 2  2  pct. 22 din"

and convert it to this

"art. 2<sup>2</sup>  pct. 22 din"

instead of art. i can have other words too like lit., pct., alin. and the numbers are always different

i tried to use the next wildcard replace but it doesn't work:

search: "(art. )([0-9]{1;})(^13)([0-9]{1;})(^13)"  replace: "\1\2<sup>\3</sup>^p"

if i type only (art. )([0-9]{1;})(^13) at the search field it works but if i type the rest it doesn't find anything

what is the answer for this problem please?

can't leave draft view

Hi,

I compared two large documents. When I save and open my newly created document with all the track changes in there, it only opens in "draft view". It does not allow me to switch to "print view" ("Seitenlayout" in german).

How can I switch to print view, so that I can see all the boloon tipps with the track changes?

thank you for any help.


Edit: I open the word in "save mode" and opened my document. now, it can switch between the two views. Can anybody please explain?


Edit 2: I can only switch from print view to draft view. But I cannot go back to print view.

I just accidentally click no to the autorecovery file. can i still retrieve my file?

Something has changed in Word when I save a document.  It has stopped  saving to my complete files in My Documents. It says my documents but instead of all of my documents it contains only some. How can I restore it.

Is it possible to associate different autocorrect settings with different Word templates?

Posted: 24 Jul 2013 06:15 PM PDT

I have different clients with different stylistic requirements. One allows the use of the word "click," for example, but another wants me to write "tap" in place of click all the time. One client wants the word spelled "dialog" and another wants it spelled "dialogue." Is there a way to tie autocorrect entries to distinct Word templates (.dotx or .dotm files) to facilitate this? I'd like to be able to write a doc for client A, for example, using the ClientA.dotx template and whenever I type the word "click" the autocorrect mechanism associated with ClientA.dotx would change that to "tap." If I were writing a doc for Client B, using the ClientB.dotx template, I would be able to write "click" and it would left alone. Similarly, the autocorrect function would ensure that "dialog" was spelled that way for one client but as "dialogue" for another.  The global autocorrect function (tied to the .acl files) is great for universal changes -- but in other situations where the variants are client specific it only gets in the way.

TIA

Bug: Incorrect caption numbers w/ multilevel list + headings

Posted: 24 Jul 2013 05:11 PM PDT

Word 2013 (and 2010) does not properly renumber existing {Figure|Table|Equation|Etc.} captions in a document when a multilevel list is attached to the "Heading n" styles.

Assume I have a document with many existing captions whose sequence numbers are keyed off the style "Heading 1", e.g.,

Figure 1.1  ==  Figure { STYLEREF 1 \s }.{ SEQ Figure \* ARABIC \s 1 }


If I now insert a caption that is keyed off the "Heading 9" style, for example, Word then incorrectly renumbers all existing captions, throughout the entire document, with the "Heading 9" style:

Figure 1.1  ->  Figure A.1  ==   *** BROKEN ***

Figure { STYLEREF 1 \s }.{ SEQ Figure \* ARABIC \s 1 } -> Figure { STYLEREF 9 \s }.{ SEQ Figure \* ARABIC \s 9 }

This is just ludicrous.

I've posted a short video on YouTube that demonstrates this bug:

http://youtu.be/yeD89a1RSyM

Going through a huge Word document that contains more than a hundred figures, tables, equations, etc. and manually fixing all of the broken caption field codes is not a viable solution. I might as well go back to using LaTeX, if that's the case. Am I missing something procedurally, here? Or does anyone perhaps know of a VBA script out there that repairs the captions that should be keyed on the "Heading 1" style after Word breaks them?

First of all, I want to thank everyone for your comments, all have been very
usefull.

The thing is that now I've an operational "rescue diskette". It boots,
reinstall lilo reading the lilo.conf in the hard disk, and ask the user to
press a key to restart.

During my search of a method for acomplishing this, I analized only two:

- Reutilize tomsrtbt

- Build my own diskete using a ramdisk, as suggested by Laurenz Albe



From the two methods above, the first was not suitable for me. It was too
hard to edit tomsrtbt for accomplishing such a simple task, and the worst
thing was that even the provided scripts (buildit.s) didn't work because of
a libc incompatibility.



So I followed the way suggested by Laurenz. I build my own kernel with only
the basic options: ramdisk support, ide support for my disks, ext3 support,
console support, and a few others. No hardware support for devices of course
and no modules as I compiled everything important inside the kernel. At the
end, I got a 1MB 2.6.8.1 kernel.

Then I began the ramdisk creation. I'm using Slackware 10, so I used a
script named mkinitrd, but building an initrd is not a big deal, it can
easily be done by hand. The benefit of a script is that in the process of
creating your final version you'll have to build several ramdisk versions,
so having a script saves time. A workaround for the case that you don't have
a script for creating the ramdisk, is using any ramdisk you have and editing
it. For example, if the file is initrd.gz you can create a backup of it
(lets say restore.gz), then unzip it with gunzip, and mounting it with:
mount ./restore /mnt/initrd -o loop (remember to create /mnt/initrd or
whatever you like). Then you can browse inside the file, make any changes
you like, unmount it, zip it, and use it in your diskette. Basically, you
must edit the file linuxrc to do what you want, and remember to use absolute
paths (eg /bin/echo) because no PATH is defined.



The last part was installing lilo in the floppy. The best way I found to do
this was to write the lilo.conf as if the floppy where your root disk, and
then with the floppy mounted running: lilo -r /mnt/floppy. I tried to use
the script makebootdik provided with Slackware, but it required a lot of
editing to have things done as I wanted.

From here is all try and correct.



I hope this helps anyone wanting to do the same. Don't forget to do a backup
of your diskette with dd, because they don't have a long life and tend to
fail when you most need them :)

Compile & Upgrade Kernel

Posted: 12 Oct 2004 07:51 AM PDT

First, simply upgrade to Fedora Core 2. Seriously, this gets you all the
other applications and tools you need for the 2.6 kernel in one step, and
installs a 2.6 kernel.

Second, take a look at whether you can use the latest RPM based kernels in
the Fedora development FTP sites. This can provide you automatic editinig of
the lilo.conf or grub.conf files, report dependencies, make it easier and
safer to *remove* an old kernel, etc.

Third, if you're still determined to do it yourself, take a look at the
"kernel-source" RPM's. They already include configuration files for various
hardware configurations, and a set of patches either backported from newer
kernels to support new hardware and fix known bugs, or to set things up the
way RedHat likes them. Then read the various HOW-TO's on the net about
compiling RedHat kernels.

Hi,

One way (Office 2004 and earlier)

With Excel open and the graph¹s data range in front of you, and with
PowerPoint open to a blank slide, in PowerPoint use Insert > Chart. A
default graph will open. Switch to Excel. Select the data range that is
being used for the graph in Excel. From Excel¹s menu choose Edit > Copy.
Switch to the open Microsoft Graph application. From Graph¹s menu choose
Edit > Paste Link. Format the graph as desired. Then Graph > Close and
Return to Presentation.

Another way (Office 2004 and earlier) - Similar to the above

With Excel open and the graph¹s data range in front of you, and with
PowerPoint open to a blank slide, in PowerPoint use Insert > Object >
Microsoft Excel WorkSheet. A blank Excel worksheet will appear and you will
be in Excel. Use the Excel Window menu to switch to the data you want
linked. Select the data range that is being used for the graph in Excel.
From Excel¹s menu choose Edit > Copy. From Excel¹s Window menu switch to the
worksheet from the Presentation. Use Edit > Paste Special and click the
Paste Link button From Graph¹s menu choose Edit > Paste Link. Create a
graph as desired and its location should be a graph sheet. Then Excel >
Close and Return to Presentation.

In both of the above cases the data and the resultant graph will be linked
to the original Excel worksheet¹s data.

If you are using Office 2008 let me know and I will try it there. It appears
some variation on the second method might work. My first attempt resulted
in lots of errors but it appears that it is due to a conflict between Office
2004 and Office 2008 residing on the same machine.

Are you using 2008? There's a "clear recent" command at the bottom of
the Open Recent menu.

Hi TCC,

I, too, am deeply disappointed that MacBU decided to release Office 2008
without VBA.

There is a free guide to help us ³transition² to AppleScript:
http://www.mactech.com/vba-transition-guide/

For the kinds of macros I write, AppleScript can¹t do the job. No Auto_Open,
Auto_Close, UserForms or save as add-in.

You can request that Microsoft restore VBA by offering your consumer case to
have VBA here:

Yes, Daiya is right on the money. You can learn more about this citation

If the OP can be more specific about how we do not honor APA rules, I can
probably be of more assistance.

Hyperlinks to KB articles

Posted: 05 May 2004 08:07 AM PDT

Here's a not so graceful way to do this, but it works

1. Open the KB article that you want to link to in your new article
2. Press CTRL + N to open the article in a new browser window
3. Copy the URL from the address bar

From here, you would think you can just paste the URL into the new KB article, but in my tests of this, CRM dropped the last close bracket } from the hyperlink. So..

4. Paste the hyperlink in Word. You may have to re-type the close bracket } to get Word to add it to the hyperlink
5. Copy the link from Word and now you can paste it into your new KB article and it should work.

Hi John,
Here are my replies:

Does the server appear to be running normally?
Yes, the system runs 100% fine if accessed via IE on the server.

do you see errors in the event logs on the server?
"The browser service has failed to retrieve the backup list too many times

The backup browser is stopping."

are call crm services started on the server? Yes. The security service
fails to start sometimes, but once started the system runs.

is the machine you are trying to connect from on the same network segment
and in the same domain? Yes

is the machine runninf internet explorer? Yes

can the client machine ping the server? No, it times out when I use the
server name. And it displays the wrong IP address. However, I can reach it
by typing the correct IP address. This leads me to believe it's some kind
of DNS problem? Typing the correct IP into a browser on the client prompts
for network password, but fails to connect.

Thanks for your help with this!

Delete Users!?!

Posted: 04 May 2004 08:54 PM PDT

David

just so you know Microsoft CRM discourages you from deleting anything. One
reason is to maintain the integrity of the database. Throughout CRM you will
see that instead of deleting items you will instead de-activate them. Of
course the plus side is you never lose data.

With users you should assign their records to another user then remove their
license and disable them.

You should also be aware that if someone leaves your company you should
disable them in CRM ie transfer their data and remove their license etc
before removing them from the active directory. If you remove them from the
AD first you will not be able to remove their license in CRM

How to move Microsoft CRM data from one Microsoft SQL Server to a
different computer

Document ID: 32398
Date Created: 8/11/2003
Date Last Modified: 2/11/2004
Language: English - United States
Country: USA
Product: Microsoft CRM
Versions: 1.0
Modules: Microsoft CRM Installation, Microsoft CRM Miscellaneous,
Microsoft CRM Server Administration

SUMMARY

This article describes how to move the Microsoft CRM SQL Server
databases to a different computer in the same domain.

MORE INFORMATION

Note This process is intended for use in a scenario where a user is
required to move the Microsoft CRM SQL Server databases to a different new
server in the same domain. This process must not be used to move data from
one server to another across domains. It must not be used to move from a
named instance of Microsoft SQL server to a default instance on the same
server.
IMPORTANT Read and understand the whole article before you try to
complete this process.

Make sure you verify these prerequisites have been met:

1. Have all users log out of Microsoft CRM.

2. Make sure that all Microsoft CRM Sales for Outlook Clients have
synchronized all their offline data to Microsoft CRM by going on-line.
Remove all Microsoft CRM Sales for Outlook clients in the deployment.

3. This process must be performed by the same domain administrator
account that installed Microsoft CRM.

4. Make sure you make a copy of all reports you have customized or
modified because these reports must be republished.

5. Make sure that you have a current backup of your Active Directory
system state and all the Microsoft SQL Server databases.

Move the databases

1. Make a Microsoft SQL Server backup of each of the three primary
Microsoft CRM databases. You do not have to back up the MSCRMDistribution
Database. This will be re-created on your new Microsoft SQL server manually.
The three databases are as follows:

- <OrganizationName>_CRMCRYSTAL
- <OrganizationName >_METABASE
- <OrganizationName >_MSCRM

To complete these backups:

a. Click Start, point to Programs, and then point to Microsoft
SQL Server to open Enterprise Manager.

b. Expand your Server until you see the databases.

c. Right-click your database and select: All Tasks | Backup
Database.

d. Leave the backup type set to "Database - complete".

e. In the destination field, click Add.

f. In the Select Backup Destination window, click the ellipsis
box. (...)

g. In the Backup Device Location window, set a file name and
location for the backup file, and then click OK.

h. Click OK until all windows are closed and you receive a
message that the backup has completed successfully.

i. Repeat steps A-H for all three databases you are backing up.

j. Do NOT delete anything from this Microsoft SQL Server at this
time, because you need the original setup for reference during this process.

2. Transfer the backup files made in step 1 to your new Microsoft SQL
Server.

3. After you transfer the backup files, create the three new
databases that you will restore the backups into. To do so, follow these
steps:

a. Open Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise Manager.

b. Expand your server until you have opened the Databases folder.

c. Right-click the Databases folder, and then select New
Database.

d. Enter a name for your database, <OrganizationName>_CRMCRYSTAL.
It is very important to make sure the naming syntax used is exactly as it
appears on your original SQL Server.

e. Repeat steps C and D two more times, creating your
<OrganizationName>_METABASE and <OrganizationName>_MSCRM databases. Again,
make sure the naming syntax exactly matches the databases on your original
SQL Server.

4. After the databases have been created, the backup files must be
restored.

a. Open Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise Manager.

b. Expand your server until you have opened the Databases folder.

c. Right-click your _Crystal database.

d. Select All Tasks | Restore Database.

e. In the Restore Database window, select to restore from Device.

f. Click Select Devices.

g. In the Choose Restore Devices window, click Add.

h. In the Choose Restore Destination window, click the ellipsis
box (...).

i. Select the location for the backup file for the _Crystal
database, and then click OK.

j. Click OK in the Choose Restore Devices window.

k. In the Restore Database window, click the Options Tab.

l. In the Options tab, select Force Restore over Existing
Database.

m. In the Restore Database File As: section of the window you
will see two paths for the physical database files. Make sure these paths
are valid locations. If they are not, you must modify them.

n. Click OK in the Restore Database window to start the restore
process. Depending on the size of your database, this may take some time.
When it is complete, you will receive a message that the restore completed
successfully.

o. Repeat these steps for your <OrganizationName>_METABASE and
<OrganizationName>_MSCRM databases.

5. After you successfully restore the databases, you must set up the
security groups by mapping to the NT security groups.

Note For this step, it is good to view the security folder on the
original Microsoft SQL Server for reference.

a. Open Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise Manager.

b. Expand your server until you have opened the Security folder.

c. Right-click Logins, and then select New Login.

d. In SQL Server Login Properties - New Login. leave the
authentication set to Windows Authentication.

e. In the Domain field, select your domain.

f. In the Name field, you will see <Yourdomain>\.

g. Click the ellipsis box for the Name field, and then you will
see a list of your domain users and groups.

h. Find the SQLRepl group, select it, and then click OK.

i. Click OK to close all the Property windows. When you close
the last window, you may be prompted with the following message that you can
ignore and Close:

It has been detected that this login has permissions in the specific
database(s) - the login will have access to these database now.

j. Repeat steps C through I and select the SQLAccessGroup in step
H.

6. After the security groups have been set, the new system must be
prepared for replication.

Replication is the process that the Microsoft CRM Sales for Outlook
clients will use to go offline. Do not skip this step, even if you do not
currently use Microsoft CRM Sales for Outlook.

a. Open Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise Manager.

b. Open the Management folder in Enterprise Manager.

c. Make sure that the Microsoft SQL Server Agent is running. If
it is not running, right-click and select Start.

d. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server,
and then click Query Analyzer.

e. In the Connect to SQL Server dialog box, connect to your
Microsoft SQL Server. Make sure to log in as a Microsoft SQL Server Admin
user.

f. From the toolbar drop-down list, select the database
<OrganizationName>_MSCRM.

g. Run the following command:

EXEC p_CRMReplicationSetup <SQL Server name>, <SQL Server name>,
<'Microsoft CRM database name'>, <'Metabase database name'>, <'replication
SQL Server directory'>, <'SQL login group name'>, <'MSCRMDistribution
database name'>

Where:

<Microsoft CRM_Database name> = This is the database that has a
name in the format <OrganizationName>_MSCRM.

<Metabase database name> = This is the database that has a name in
the format <OrganizationName>_METABASE.

<replication SQL Server directory> = This is the path to the
REPLDATA directory on the Microsoft SQL Server, for example: C:\Program
Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\REPLDATA.

<SQL login group name> = This is the name located in the Logins
node under Security. It is in the format <domainname>\SQLRepl
{E5334FB9-440A-4BD8-A19A-0FA54E6B248C}. For more information about how to
find this name, see the following Note.

<MSCRMDistribution database name> = This is the database that has
a name in the format <OrganizationName>_MSCRMDistribution. If you do not
see this database in Microsoft SQL Server, specify the database name as
listed in the parameter, and then the database will be created.

Note To find the SQL login group name follow these steps:

a. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server, and
click Enterprise Manager.

b. In the console tree, expand the Security node of the server
for which you want to determine the group name (the one you specified during
setup).

c. Click Logins to view a list of login names.

d. In the details pane, right-click the login name that is in the
format <domain name>\SQLRepl {E5334FB9-440A-4BD8-A19A-0FA54E6B248C}, and
then click Properties.

e. In the Properties dialog box, click the Database Access tab.

f. On the Database Access tab, the SQL login group name is the
name located in the User column for one of the populated rows. (Any one of
the names listed in this column will work.)

g. Right-click the name and then click Copy. Paste the name from
the User column into the <SQL login group name) parameter in the command
listed.

Example:

For an organization created with the name MyOrganization, with users
in the domain MyDomain, installed to a Microsoft SQL Server called MySQLSvr,
use code that is similar to the following:

EXEC p_CRMReplicationSetup MySQLSvr, MySQLSvr, 'MyOrganization_MSCRM',
'MyOrganization_METABASE', 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL\REPLDATA', 'MyDomain\SQLRepl
{E5334FB9-440A-4BD8-A19A-0FA54E6B248C}', 'MyOrganization_MSCRMDistribution'

7. After the replication is enabled, the MSCRM folder must be shared.

a. Open Windows Explorer on the new CRM server.

b. Locate the \Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL\REPLDATA\MSCRM folder.

c. Right-click the MSCRM folder and select Sharing.

d. Share the folder with the name MSCRMSnapshotShare. Make sure
to match the syntax exactly.

e. For the share permissions, share the folder to the Everyone
group with full control.

f. For the NTFS file system permissions, give the domain users
group access with Read and Execute rights to the folder and sub-folders.

8. After the folder is shared, you must re-configure the Microsoft
CRM server and the Microsoft Sales for Outlook clients.

a. Remove all Microsoft CRM Sales for Outlook clients.

b. On the Microsoft CRM server, export your customizations using
Deployment Manager and then remove the Microsoft CRM server through
Add/Remove Programs.

c. After CRM has been removed from the system, restart the
server. After the CRM server has been re-started, delete the Microsoft CRM
folder in the Program Files folder.

d. Re-install the Microsoft CRM server. When you are prompted
during install, select to connect to existing databases and select the
location of the new Microsoft SQL server.

e. After installing, import and publish your customizations using
the Deployment Manager.

f. Re-install all Microsoft CRM Sales for Outlook clients.

9. Test the Microsoft CRM program and make sure that you can access
your data. Also test your Microsoft CRM Sales for Outlook clients to make
sure you can use the program.

10. At this point, you will not have access to the reports in
Microsoft CRM and the reports must be re-published. This task requires a
tool from Microsoft CRM Technical Support who can be reached at
1-888-477-7877 or https://mbs.microsoft.com/support/newstart.aspx.

11. After you have tested the Microsoft CRM Sales for Outlook clients
and confirm that the Web application functionality is working, you can clean
up your old Microsoft SQL server. To do so, follow these steps:

a. Open Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise Manager.

b. Expand your server until you see the Replication folder.

c. Right-click the Replication folder and select Disable
Publishing.

d. A Wizard will appear.

e. Click Yes to disable publishing, and then complete the Wizard
steps. This process can take several minutes or more.

f. After replication is disabled, you can delete the Microsoft
CRM databases.

After you have successfully completed the process of moving your
Microsoft CRM SQL databases from one server to another, remember to schedule
regular backups of the database on the new server.

SQLAccessGroup and SQLRepl Groups do Not Exist in Microsoft SQL Server
Enterprise Manager for Microsoft CRM Deployment


Return to previous page

Date Last Modified: 7/16/2003

Issue

How to add the SQLAccessGroup and SQLRepl group into Enterprise
Manager Logins area in order for Replication for Microsoft CRM to be set up
correctly?

Resolution

If the SQLAccessGroup and SQLRepl access groups do not exist within
the Logins area of Enterprise Manager, then Replication for Microsoft CRM
cannot be setup correctly.

If these access groups do not exist, the sp_grantlogin stored
procedure can add them into the Logins area.

1. Open Microsoft SQL Query Analyzer.

2. Type the following in a new query:
EXEC sp_grantlogin 'domain\group'

Note - In the above example, replace domain with the name of your
domain. And replace group with the full pre-windows 2000 group name for
SQLAccessGroup. The full name can be found in Active Directory Users and
Computers. Highlight the Microsoft CRM Organization Name and the
SQLAccessGroup will be listed. Highlight the group, right-click and choose
Properties. The full name will be listed in the Group Name field, it will
include SQLAccessGroup followed by a long GUID. Copy the contents of that
field and use it to replace 'group' in the script above.

3. Run the script against the master database.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the SQLRepl access group.
