HOW TO USE AUTO NUMBERING

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 03:22 PM PDT

I'm trying to use auto numbering on a set of tickets.  the numbers must be the same on each stub and ticket, but change with each additional ticket and stub. 

its 3 tickets per page with stubs.

also the numbering must change in order with each page.  so if tickets 1, 2, and 3 are on one page ticket 4,5 and 6 should be on second. I have to do this for over 300 tickets.

 

For example:

ticket stub #1001 ticket #1001

ticket stub 1002 ticket #1002

etc.

etc.

numbers never repeating

 

 

 

can anyone please help

Ribbon disabled--cannot find normal.dotm

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 02:42 PM PDT

In Word 2010, only when "file"is selected is the cursor active. When I click on any other tab, such as "Home" the cursor freezes and I'm unable to do anything. Microsoft Support told me to delete normal.dotm--however, I cannot find it. This laptop I've had for about 45 days, running Windows 7 Prof.
64-bit--the Office Professional is 32-bit. In over three years with this software, I've not had this problem until I bought this computer installing my Office. As it stands now, Word 2010 is useless to me.

I would appreciate any and all help I can receive from the Community.

Fix/Lock cell sizes on official document

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 12:26 PM PDT

I have a new official document I need to fill out in bulk

I already have the data and want to mail merge to it to save time - to do that i need to merge the cells expecting written input to a single field for merge

I am not allowed to change/modify the document in any way other than the merged input

You can see that each time I merge these cells it causes the document to distort

I guess this is caused by the conflict of cell properties with regarding auto-fitting, etc

I am wondering whether its possible to select the whole document (4 pages) and fix/lock the cell dimension so they wont shift on merge

Any other solution greatly received


Notice simply merging the cells for the ULN or Learner Reference (top of page 1) causes the bottom page 1 + top of page 2 to become distorted

Mirror margins not working for a document with A3 and A4 pages

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 12:25 PM PDT

I have a document that has A3 landscape pages for the first two pages, then A4 portrait for the following pages. I have set mirror margins for the Whole Document. Top=.5  Bottom=.5  Left=1  Right=.5. Different Odd/Even and Different First Page. The mirror margins only works for the first two A3 pages. All of the A4 then have a 1 inch left margin. Any suggestions?

 

OK, I made it even more simple. I made every page US Letter size. Set mirror margins for the Whole Document. Top=.5  Bottom=.5  Left=1  Right=.5. Different Odd/Even and Different First Page.

 

Page 1, page break

page 2, Section break, Next Page

Page 3, page break

Page 4 page break

Page 5.

 

Then I set the first section as Landscape and set Top=.5  Bottom=.5  Left=1  Right=.5. It turns page 1 and page 2 and the mirror margins are correct for only the first 2 pages. All of the remaining pages then have a 1 inch left margin.

 

It also causes the margin settings to switch from

Top to Outside=.5

Bottom to Inside=.5   (I tried to change this to 1 inch but it changes the bottom margin.

Left=1 

Right=.5

Having problems retaining the natural dimensions of a photo in Word.

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 11:42 AM PDT

I am creating a template for a client to use in Word (publishing layout) and I am having trouble retaining the dimensions of photos when pasting them into shapes. 

Example: I have a square shape with rounded corners that a profile pic will go into. It's a newsletter so the profile pic will change every month and the client themselves will replace this image. If I place a photo that is portrait or landscape into this square the image stretches and fits itself into the square. Is there a way that I can place images into shapes and have them retain their natural dimensions and just crop off where the shape stops? 

The work around is to crop the photo into a square in photoshop and then place it into the shape with the same dimensions. This work around is fine for me to handle, but the client is going to have trouble doing this. 

So I need to be able to place any image no matter what shape into a square and have it retain its dimension and crop off at the sides. Otherwise I will have to abandon this idea all together. Very frustrating, I tried everything and image still stretches. Please help!

Office Word page numbers change when saved

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 10:10 AM PDT

I am having some difficulty with the page numbers in Office. I get the automatic numbers set in the header for a 5 page document, page 1 of 5, page 2 of 5, etc. Whenever I save the document, the numbers change to page 1 of 3, page 2 of 3, etc. Then, as soon as I click in the regular page area, it reverts back to the regular count for a 5 page document. I am using this for formalized documents, and don't want to submit anything that looks inaccurate - however briefly. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Office 2010 Waveform Theme

On exit available with content controls?

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 08:38 AM PDT

I have a form template that was created in Office 2003 using form fields in protected sections of the document.  One of the fields is a dropdown which drives the insertion of text in two other fields as well as a UserForm and MsgBox with Select Case macro.

 

I am migrating my engineering documents into 2010.  Depending on the type of form, I will be leaving the form fields and vb alone.  Others, because or requirements to use most of the functionality of Word, am migrating to content controls and read-only.

 

So far, in a test document, I am able to replicate the dropdowns, bookmarks and default text, however, one of the vb fields references an On Exit Macro.... is there a way to reference the macro so it pulls up the select case entries from the content control?  I have not been very successful in Googling a direct answer to this, if it can be done at all....

 

Clarification please?

I Want to Install Word 2000 Because I Paid for It!

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 06:00 AM PDT

I have Office 2010. I found a Word 2000 installation disk I thought I had discarded when I bought 2010, and I tried to install it (not that it matters to anyone but me, but coincidentally thirteen years to the day after I purchased it at Office Max). So I own this software but can't install it due to an error code that references a "Q" drive and an error code 1327.

 

Googling "Why can't I install Word 2000," I have found multiple links referencing the need to disable Microsoft Office Live Toolbar. The proliferation of programs and "apps" and cloud-bloatware overwhelms. If someone can tell me 1) what Microsoft Office Live Toolbar even is; 2) if disabling it would indeed allow to install Word 2000 (which I paid for and own); and 3) why, if this is not the way to fix the installation error, a "Q" drive is referenced, I would appreciate hearing from anyone here. I would particular appreciate hearing from any one of the old faithful MVPs.

 

Thank you.

Matching Created and Last Modified times, but 75 mins editing time - how?

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 05:26 AM PDT

I'm examining a Word 2010 document and noted it has some odd metadata, which I cannot explain.

The Created date and time is exactly the same as the Last Modified date and time, but the document is being reported as edited for 75 minutes. How could this have happened? The Last Modified time is roughly when work on the document finished. If the document was saved with a new filename when work on it was finished, this would have created a new document which has matching Created and Last Modified time stamps, but the Total Editing Time would be zero.

Total Editing Time 75 minutes
Last Modified 01/08/13 15:35
Created 01/08/13 15:35

Does anyone know how the Total Editing Time is calculated which can explain this? Isn't Total Editing Time only recorded when you save. If you close a document without saving, it keeps the Editing time since the last save?

Multiple functions of macrobuttons

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 04:49 AM PDT

Hi Everyone,

I want to put a macrobutton into a Word Document that does 2 things. I want it to send the document via email and when it opens up Outlook I want it to populate with a set email. So the overall function would be that the user completes the form, presses the button, which opens up Outlook or other email with the Address inserted.

I've worked out how to get the button in the form using Ctrl+F9 and got the FileSendMail function working but how can I also get it to populate the address automatically. This is my first foray into macros so be gentle and assume I know nothing.

Many Thanks

Word 2007 Crashes When Running Macro in Legacy Template Once Saved as *.docm

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 11:40 PM PDT

Hi,

 

We have an enterprise version of Word 2007; in the Trust Centre it is not possible to change the Macro Settings.  The Macro Settings are fixed on Disable all macros with notification so we use Trusted Locations and the possibility of identifying a Trusted Publisher.

 

All of our documents are based upon standard Company Templates, these need to be compatible with legacy versions of Word so are in the format: *.dot

 

When our templates are opened in Word 2007 one of the macros runs automatically requesting the required Meta data: title, document number, author, etc. through a pop up window.  Once all the data is filled, this is used in the document as text or held in the custom properties.  We also have other macros to request a document number and so on.  In all previous versions of Word the macros work perfectly, with the enhanced security of Word 2007 the macros only work when the template is first opened.

 

Once the document is saved as a *.docm in a Trusted Location if it is re-opened any attempt to run the macro will crash Word 2007.

 

My colleague has administrator rights and has changed the Macro Settings from Disable all macros with notification to Enable all macros (not recommended; potentially dangerous can run code).

 

If i could enable all macros the problem would be solved.

 

 How can I stop Word 2007 crashing, I requested administrator rights and was refused, our central and off site support have only made the problem worse.

 

I keep requesting IT to enable the macros but am told that they cannot do this.

 

I am thinking of taking my entire work home and completing it on my MAC because your product is so easy to use on that platform.

 

Thank you

entering text within an auto shape

Office 2013 Clipart Issue with Roaming Profiles "Sorry, we are having some temporary server issues"

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 06:27 PM PDT

Having issues with Office 2013 and roaming profiles.

If you are the second user on a computer the local path for the WebCache does not exist.  We delete roaming profiles from the computer on log off.

For an in depth description see http://angrytechnician.wordpress.com/2013/05/15/office-2013-error-sorry-we-are-having-some-temporary-server-issues/#comment-5132

I've written a powershell script to band-aid the issue.  The script runs via gpo at logon. And deletes the Registry Key. When office opens the Subtree is rebuilt.

$base = "HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\Internet\WebServiceCache\AllUsers\office15client.microsoft.com"
$key = Get-Item -Path $base

$subkeys = $key.GetSubKeyNames();

foreach($sub in $subkeys)
{
    $path = "$base\$sub"
    Remove-Item -Path $path -Recurse -Force   
}

I'd like to know if Microsoft knows about the issue and if there is a better fix or GPO policy to set the FilePath in the subkeys.

Edits disappear

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 04:26 PM PDT

We created a document in Word 2010 and saved it to the office server.  This morning, I made edits to the footer and a couple of other places, mostly things like correcting punctuation, etc.  The document was saved.   My boss saw that the edits had been made.  This afternoon, my boss re-opened the document and some of the edits I had made were gone, like they had never been made in the first place.

 

This is not the first time I have had trouble with this issue.  Several months ago, I made changes to a document, saved the document, and when I printed, my changes did not appear in the printout, although they were visible on the screen.  Fortunately, my supervisor saw the changes on my screen and that the changes did not appear on the printout.  We tried closing and re-opening the document, and the changes no longer even appeared on screen.

 

At a place I previously worked,  the same thing would happen.   I would edit documents and save them.  On a regular basis, the edits would appear on my screen, but when I printed the document, the edits would not appear on the printout.  (I was using Word 2007 at that office).  If I closed the document and re-opened it, my edits would be gone, even though I had saved them.  My supervisors would not believe me when I told them that I had made the changes and everything was correct on my screen before I printed the document.  Of course when I re-opened the documents to try to show them that I had made the changes, the changes would be gone.  I was fired from that job because of this glitch.  It is freaking me out to see it happening again.

Cannot change font in Word 2007

Posted: 01 Aug 2013 04:00 PM PDT

It's strange that such a basic thing is not working, but I cannot change the font type of selected text. When I do so using Home - Font and select a font type, after already having selected the document text to be changed, the selected text does not change, but remains in the former font.  The same thing happens when I just right click the selected text and then choose the font and click 'OK'.  Oddly also, I have not seen any other posts about this problem, though I'm sure others must encounter it.  What could be wrong here?

Many thanks for your suggestion Bob.

problem - but no luck.

I also double-checked Window XP Regional Language settings, and have just
English UK and English US loaded - the option for right-to-left languages is

Office 2000 SP3 Administrative Install update

Posted: 23 Nov 2004 07:01 AM PST

Hi Max,

What version of Windows are you using and what
version of the MS Installer?

From your details I'm assuming you renamed the .MSI file
as part of Setup.ini prior to creating a new Office Admin point
from the May 2000 Select CD and that the download was the
English language one for SP3?

Have you been able to successfully deploy and run the apps
on a client computer from this admin point?

You can also get the error if the download was corrupted.

You may want to try turning on the verbose logging option
in your command line

/L*V C:\o2ksp3log.txt

to see what file the update may be balking on.

You are attempting to load Office in a manner that is not supported in

Read your EULA - Office is a single person license, not a Parent, Child

How to change newsreading from Outlook Express to Outlook News

Posted: 22 Nov 2004 06:31 AM PST

Thanks Milly,

Your suggested steps did the trick in this case.
1. changed default newsreader in IE Options
2. rebooted (just to be sure to clean up)
3. started OE and made sure it wasn't default mailclient as well, unchecked
"Always..."
4. rebooted (just to be sure to clean up)
5. reset the "Go" Outlook Menu Bar to contain "News" again
6. Presto, Outlook Newsreader comes up.

My "trigger happy" user is happy now.
(So am I, 'cause I learned a nice workaround trick in the process:
/outnews.)

[discuss] An humble request for a new OpenOffice software component

-q10

I do not know much about Microsoft Office, but I routinely copy pdf form files and special paste them to writer 2.4., but must manually correct formatting to make an acceptable (to me) .odt version of the original pdf file. I then save it as a template, which I use over and over, as I do my many other templates, saving filled in forms in the folders of the appropriate projects. Filled in forms I then send to others as email attachments in .odt, pdf, or word format, or print and mail. Really useful if you don't want to use a pen or typewriter to fill in a form you must complete frequently.

My PowerBook runs on OS X 10.5.2 and the latest Firefox.

Is there any way to fix it?

What do you mean by compatible? Do you mean a database program by Microsoft
for the Macintosh? If so, there is none, never was, and probably never will
be? If you mean able to read and write to Access databases, then Excel for
the Mac can do that via third party software.

There are several good database programs for the Mac (but none from
Microsoft), FileMaker is one, Panorama (http://www.provue.com/) is another,
so is 4D (http://www.4d.com/)
All are "compatible" with Office in that they can import data from, and
export data to Office for the Mac. Again, what do you mean by "compatible"?

Volume Licence Key

Posted: 20 Feb 2008 02:47 AM PST

Thanks for the reply i'll check those out, yea its not a personal licence im trying to find the licences for the school mac's system we bought the software and three licences first. Since we gained another 10 new macs we needed an extention on the licences. Now we have a licence agreement number and an authorisation number and no volume licence key for each computer. And after three attempts to attain it im slowly finding it hard to contiue this battle for a key.

Opening Word 08 documents in PC

Posted: 19 Feb 2008 04:47 PM PST

Do not change the suffix on a file, or you may 'cause' this problem. The
suffix tells the receiving computer which code is in the file: if it doesn't
match the content, you get this problem.

However, in this case, this is an error on the PC end.

There are some things you can try to help them work around it.

1) Tell the PC user to save the file to a folder before trying to open it.
PC email programs should not allow them to open Word documents directly from
their email, because that's how they get viruses.

2) Make sure you have enabled "Windows Friendly Attachments" if you are
using Apple email. If you are using Entourage, check "MIME" as your
encoding format and "Append Windows File Extensions" as your default for
sending.

3) Before sending your file, Zip it using the Mac "Create Archive" command,
which appears if you right-click the file in the Finder.

4) If the Windows PC is running a version of Word younger than 2007, it
needs a converter to open Word 2008 .docx files. Tell them to download it
from the Microsoft website.

Hope this helps

Delete these two files on one of the machines:

where ~ is your home folder, and

"Cannot Load the Microsoft Office Shared Libraries" Error Message

RESOLUTION The damaged file belongs to the Mac Operating System. To resolve
this problem, follow these steps:
1. Repair disk permissions. Use the Disk Utility to repair and then verify
disk permissions.
2. Restart the system, and then check to see whether all programs start.
3. Apply the latest Apple combo updater. If that fails you will need to do
an "Archive & Install".

You might need to download the combo updater from Apple and run it again
rather than using Software Update. Doing so overwrites potentially
problem-causing files. Several users have reported this fixed some odd
problems they were having with Entourage. Combo updaters will install on the
same version as they¹re applying‹no need to roll back or do a clean install.

annoying wrong dateformat

Posted: 17 Feb 2008 01:20 AM PST

No that doesn't work. If I format the cells as dates, it only offers the possibiity 3/14 or 14-Mar and some others but not 14/3.
However, some experimenting led me to the solution. You have to format the cells as a "custom" format, namely dd/mm.

You cannot remove users from MS CRM, only deactivate them. What you
do is remove the license from that user and give it to the new user.

IE Closes when opening CRM

Posted: 10 May 2004 06:36 AM PDT

Tim,
keywords "launched in a new window"
MSN has a new toolbar which blocks popups. I added our server to the "allow
list" and it now works correctly.
If anyone else has this issue, I recommend first disabling any pop-up
blocking software you may have running.

Thanks again Tim for the clue.

CRM 1.2 Security Service Not starting

Posted: 10 May 2004 06:19 AM PDT

here u go...
Document ID: 28821
Date Created: 1/13/2003
Date Last Modified: 8/19/2003
Language: English - United States
Country: USA
Product: Microsoft CRM
Versions: 1.0
Modules: Microsoft CRM Installation

Issue

Error - "The Microsoft CRM Security Service failed to
start due to the following error: The service did not
respond to the start or control request in a timely
fashion." occurs during the installation of the Microsoft
CRM Server when Microsoft CRM Server 1.0 and Microsoft
SQL Server 2000 are installed on the same machine.

Resolution

IMPORTANT: This article contains information about the
registry. If modifying the registry, make sure to back
it up and make sure that you understand how to restore
the registry if a problem occurs. For information about
how to back up, restore, and edit the registry, see
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 256986 - Description of
the Microsoft Windows Registry.

To prevent the Microsoft CRM Security Service from
failing to start upon bootup, you can edit the registry
on the Microsoft CRM Server. Log into the server as a
local administrator and run the registry editor by going
to Start | Run | REGEDT32. Expand out the registry tree
to get to the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\MSCRM
SecurityService.

With the MSCRMSecurityService key highlighted, go to the
Edit Menu and choose the Add Value option. Name the
Value "DependOnService" without the double quotes and
choose a Data Type of REG_MULTI_SZ. Add on two separate
lines the following data, MSSQLSERVER and SQLSERVERAGENT
and then click on OK to save the new REG_MULTI_SZ
values.

Note - If you are using another instance of SQL Server,
you must add the name of the SQL Server Instance and the
SQL Server instance Agent names that are listed in the
Windows 2000 Services. This will enable the Microsoft
CRM Security Service to wait for the Microsoft SQL Server
2000 services to start before it tries to start.

email from CRM questions

Posted: 10 May 2004 05:02 AM PDT

Hi,

This is just how CRM sends the emial as it is going throught the exchange
connector it sends it as your email address becasue it does not resolve the
name (in AD).

I am not aware of a way to automataiclly create a header but you may be able
to do it through a custom email form.

re: your crystal password, you need to use the tool that shipped with the

It has been my experience that the crystal admin tool that ships with 1.2
will not work for changing passwords on the 1.0 instance.

User Manager fails to display all users from AD

Posted: 08 May 2004 06:38 AM PDT

Turned out that the cause was the userAccountControl attribute of the
missing users.

User accounts had been migrated from Netware NDS and the migration process
had resulted in their userAccountControl attribute involving "Password not
Required". Changing missing users userAccountControl to 512 (Normal User)
fixed the problem

There is a TK on the issue, that relates to migrations from NT4 domains.
Clearly, it applies to migrations from NDS as well

Outlook 2003 integration

Posted: 07 May 2004 01:22 PM PDT

We use Outlook 2003 and CRM Client and it works, but on
one machine I would get an error everytime outlook started
stating that the forms could not be installed. After
doing a registry comparison, I found that it was missing a
string in the MSCRM key.

path: machinename\HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSCRM\
type: REG_SZ (string)
name: CassiniPort
value: 2525

After adding that value, go into Outlook and remove the
com addin, close outlook, start outlook and then re-add
the "com addin"
c:\Program Files\Microsoft CRM\Client\bin\crmaddin.dll

See if that works for you.

Yes we have used security roles to remove menu's. Be careful when chaning
security roles, especially if you have a large amount of data as CRM
examines every record to see if it needs updating. I have heard of security
updates taking literally hours to complete.
