Microsoft Word - features not working in msword 2007

features not working in msword 2007

Posted: 03 Aug 2013 02:57 PM PDT

When I type two hyphens and space I do not get the long hyphen. When I type web addresses they do not give the underline to actually access the site on the internet.  I am sure there are other features that do not work. Is there a graphics feature or some other feature I can click on to activate all the options instead of trying to solve them one at a time when I need them the most.

Out of control deleting in Word 2013

Posted: 03 Aug 2013 02:38 PM PDT

I'm getting an occasional problem where I start to delete text in Word and the deleting function takes on a life of its own: without my continuing to touch any keys, it continues to delete incredibly fast and the only to stop it seems to be hit the ESC key. 

Any ideas as to what causes this?

Many thanks

Sort by last name a two line address book in Word

Posted: 03 Aug 2013 01:45 PM PDT

I have a three page address book in Word with the last name first in each two line address.  I'd like to sort these by last name. I'm guessing since there are no columns or fields in my Word file, I would need to export it into Excel, do the sorting there and then move it back into word after it has been sorted.  Although I would need some direction in doing that if that is even the proper solution. It might be better to just leave then in Excel, but you tell me.

Thanks! Office 2010 in Windows 8Pro.

How to get table to start lower than top of page

Posted: 03 Aug 2013 11:54 AM PDT

I have a table that is about a page and a half long. It has 3 columns and 10 rows. I have the option to "allow row to break across pages" NOT selected, as I want each row to be seen on one page, not spread across both pages.

Unfortunately, I want a bit of text to be read above this table, and when I have these 2 lines of text at the top of the page, the entire table then pushes itself down onto the next lower page. I'm pretty sure that I've worked with tables in the past, that had individual rows move from one page to another if the table itself was pushed farther down. But this table insists on moving every row to the next page.

I'm pretty sure that a table can start lower down on a page than the top--and still have entire rows bleed over onto the next page (remember, I don't want any row spread across both pages).

What do I need to do?

I have placed a link to this document, if anyone is interested. The table is the last two pages of this document.

Open Word documents in read mode

How do I remove the footer space entirely?

Posted: 03 Aug 2013 02:24 AM PDT

All the blogs and "help" topics on footers describe only how to remove the footer content. I want to remove the footer space allowance altogether, however. MS Word 2010 (version 14.0.6129.5000) won't let me. Right now I have no footer at all (which is as I want it to be). but MS Word insists on reserving an approximately 3/4" horizontal band along the bottom of each page of my document for the non-existent footer. I want that band to cease and desist since I need to use that space for content in the body of my document. The page insists on breaking at 3/4" from the bottom even though I have changed my bottom margin to .3 inches.

Instructions are appreciated.

w:rsid XML tags in document.xml - what do they mean?

Posted: 03 Aug 2013 02:20 AM PDT

Can you conclude anything about how a document has been written, edited or put together from examining the w:rsid XML tags in the document.xml? I've got a bunch of questions about these tags to see if they help me at all. I'm looking through a document at the moment trying to understand how it has been created, and note there are tags like:

 

-<w:p w:rsidP="00562074" w:rsidRDefault="00562074" w:rsidR="00562074" w:rsidRPr="00FB1D99">

 

Do they tell you anything about when the document has been saved, in what order text has been written, whether or not text has been copied into the document from other sources, or authored originally in the document.

 

When does Word insert these tags? What actions on the part of the author would cause Word to insert them? What do the tags mean?

 

Any help appreciated.

Create a Word Book

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 08:27 PM PDT

Hi,

I have several individual word documents that are related to each.

The reason I have them separated is that I need to have each document with it's own header and footer with revision status for issue control.

I would like to combine these into one file but still maintain them with the separate revision status and page numbering.

 

I would like to create a word document (book) that combines each individual word documents with the characteristics they had as individual files.

Criteria as follows:

1) insert each of the individual word documents in to one document.

2) Have each inserted document maintain its own separate headers and footers with it's own revision status.

3) Have each also maintain it's own page numbers (each inserted document starts with page one etc)

 

Is this possible?

Can someone help?

It's appreciated.

 

Alternating Font & Font Color In Conversation

Posted: 02 Aug 2013 07:31 PM PDT

I frequently write back & forth conversation in stories, not screenplays so I don't want or need anything as complex as Celtx.  I just want to be able to quickly and easily switch back & forth, and have a different font and font color for each person, and for the narrative (Example: Gina-Arial, Red.  Stephen-Courier New, Brown. Narrative-Times New Roman, black).  I assume this would involve using a macro in some way but how would you suggest setting it up?  Is there another, easier way to go about it?

 

Thanks in advance.

Keyfinder: http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder.shtml , among others,
will report the product keys of installed products, so if your old computer
has your Office software installed and is still up and running, keyfinder
should report your key(s). Please be aware that your EULA most probably
requires you to have the software installed on only one computer, and that
you will have to activate the software. It may take a phone call to MS to
explain that you are moving Office from the old computer to the new one.

I have now followed all three of the suggested solutions. The second

this did not solve the problem. The third solution was successful in

Project has a mind of its own!

Posted: 28 Sep 2004 10:26 AM PDT

Hi Lamby74,

Just to add on what Mike has stated, I would also advise learning about &
understanding the algebraic equation that MS Project uses when adding
resources to a task (Units * Duration = Work). You also should understand
that the "Task Type" (Fixed Work, Duration, or Units), which you may have
noticed already, has some input to how hours may be distributed for a
resource.

The "effort driven" check box only affects resource's assigned hours when
adding more than one resource to a task (or unassigning a resource). For
example, if Effort Driven is checked on a task where resource A has 40 hours
and you add another resource, the 40 hours is then split between both
resources. When un-checked, the both resources would have 40 hours assigned.

My advice is to definitely check into some training if you are going to use
the tool. In particular, look for a course that has a process around using
the tool rather than just "point and click" training so that you can learn
how the tool works rather than just how to fill out some forms. Since
Project isn't as user-friendly as say, Excel (if you want to call it that),
training will reduce the amount of frustration yourself and others in your
company *will* have with the tool. That being said, I think it's a very
powerful tool when used properly.

Good luck!

Ok, I see now. Although I can't explain the thinking behind that, it seems
rediculous to me to allow the selection of many of those fields to be placed
in a Heading! The details in your Text1 field will only appear in the print
out if it is shown in the table. If you insert a Text1 column in your Entry
table in the Gantt Chart view, that should then show up in the Print
Preview. Project cannot obviously print all the contents of all the Text1
data in its heading!

Have you tried setting the files to be "hidden" (using the typical Windows
File Properties)
Another alternative is to change the file suffix to something like .oldmpp,
then it should not come up in the file list unless the user is looking at
"all filetypes"
Another alternative is to zip the files into an archive. This saves space
and avoids confusion but adds an extra step when you want to look at them.

Odd resource handling

To re-phrase: you can have a group like Carpenter with, say, 10 men. You
can assign the resource Carpenter to a task and project will do just that,
leaving 9 carpenters for assignment over the same period. If one of the
carpenters is called Fred, you cannot assign Fred to a task and expect
Project to realise that it now only has 9 carpenters left for that period.
You either have a group or you have individuals by name.

How does one distribute task sheets to the web?

Posted: 27 Sep 2004 05:49 AM PDT

Invaluable information Dale Thank-you.

The weekly estimate is still not workable for what I need as no resource
really remains that
dedicated, sometimes yes, it will remain fully utilized for a week at a
time, but sometimes the changes are hourly,
a very dynamic situation as our production plans change rapidly. It is a
concurrent engineering environment.
It seems like one would not want this "burden" but the "burden" is ten fold
if actuals are delayed, even a half day can
have huge impact all this is compounded by 24/7 runtime.(three shifts)

So I need to deviate from the "recommended" but that is just a question of
timing is it not?
The concept of weekly vs daily vs hourly adjustments is just a label,
correct?

So now I can see we may have to increase the level of sophistication of our
team members
and elevate them to Project Managers. That's OK, but we can only tolerate
them as
PWA users not Project Pro users, In effect these folks will be responsible
for submitting and overseeing
the updating of actuals into the project plan. Again this is just a label,
some battles with permissions
configuration, and a discipline of don't touch what you are not supposed to.
The General Project Manager will resolve resource contention accross all
projects or the introduction of new
resources to the enterprise pool.

I'm excited to get my Project Server back. (lost to leaky capacitors). I
just need a few core components
of it's whole mechanism to accomplish what I need. But I have also found
that direct writes via third
party ODBC application to a Project Prorollout with a resident datastore in
SQL has it's own challenges.

Which presents the best value and demands my attention is a tough choice.

Project Name Doesn't Change When Using SaveAs

Posted: 25 Sep 2004 06:19 AM PDT

Well I don't know if there is a bug. I just noticed that if you ever type
something in the Title field of the Document Properties window (in File menu)
then this value takes precedence over Project's default and will be displayed
in the project summary task name. If you clear out this value in the doc
properties window, then... the project summary taskname gets also cleared out.

The only solution I found was to copy my project data to a brand new file..
and not ever touch the document properties again...

There must be a trick to set this back to the original value to display the
filename but I guess this would mean to hardcode something directly into the
..mpp file. Of coursse this is not documented by Microsoft...
Hope this helps,

How can I print one-day tasks only?

Posted: 24 Sep 2004 07:03 PM PDT

Hi

i've always found this option pretty "flakey" in version 2000 - not had any
problem however with it in 2003 (which doesn't help you much!) ... but one
way i've managed to get it to behave itself in ver 2000 is to

first choose format / timescale and set the top of the timescale to Day with
a count of 1 and the bottom to Hours with a count of 1

then set file / print - time period - make sure you also click in the Dates
radio button & not just set the dates.

Good luck

Vladimir,

Have you tried just pressing Return for a password? Maybe it's actually
blank.

I can't help you I guess, but the responses to your post were very
helpful to me. I seldom have such problems anymore since I now keep
backups going and archive everything, plus always work on copies of
really important documents and then overwrite the old rev when I'm
satisfied it's ready. Until then I keep it named "copy of My RID" where
"rid" is the original filename.
That might work well for you in the future, too.

That said, I did download the referenced password cracker; just in case.
Then to be safe I stored that in a system encrypted folder, for which I
have exported the certificate keys in case I ever forget the password or
have to rebuild or re-image the hard drive. And the CD with that
information on it is kept in a locked firesafe.

Hope you manage to retrieve it!

and offered to update me. Since I am running 2.4.1, does that imply
that you created the envelope in BETA 3?

Also again, how do you get the text to print vertically on the
Portrait-set envelope?
I've never had a set up so the text would turn horizontal for
editing and return to vertical when you finish it; that's new to me, and
I think probably the tip I need to make it easier to create env
templates. I have #10 and 6 3/4 templates working OK, but ... your
design appears more efficient and logical so I'd like to figure it out;
the text boxes have me stumped.

Regards,

Twayne

To share documents with MS Word users you have to save them as .doc
(File > Save As). Even better, if you do not expect the recipient to
edit the documents, send them as PDF (File > Export as PDF).

Yeah, he's right in what he says, but that wasn't the import of my post,
you're correct. As you may have noticed earlier in this thread and
other posts, too, it's nearly impossible to get OO.o to do anything that
isn't their own direct thought. Accuracy and thoroughness isn't
necessarily at the top of their list for whatever reason. No big dea;;
it was just a passing though I decided might cut down on a few of the
questions that get fielded "here". Quotes are because I only read/post
through the gmane portal and there's a lot more to the system.

Check this,

If what bothers you about the bullets and numbering is the

Look for this in the default template if this doesn't stop
it for you.

I've heard things like that before; and in fact, the site you referenced
even extorts the visitor: Feed them some personal information or you
can't even read their content beyond the enticer.
Those kinds of sites always go to my never-land-on list. Their
hidden content isn't worty feeding them to me.

Installing Office 2004 on a new Mac

Actually, you are entitled to install on 1 Desktop & 1 Laptop *per* license,
so you really don't have to do anything other than install on the new LT
using one of the existing DT licenses - you simply can't use Office
simultaneously on the 2 systems which share the same license.

If you're disposing of the old LT you should, of course, run Remove Office
on it or reformat the HD after migrating your files.

Make sure to apply the updates to the new installation.

I don't remember anything about Identity when installing Office 2008. Is
this coming up when you are asked to import an Identity?

Problems with typing in Russian in Word'04

Posted: 21 Feb 2008 12:55 PM PST

Alas, this is not working for me. When I make the changes to the language of the Normal doc, and save, close, and restart, when I re-open it, it switches back to English AND changes my keyboard to English. Then I reset it and resave it, and open a new blank document - bam it's English. Switch the language on my keyboard and the original problem occurs.
I knew I shouldn't have gotten any MS software when I switched to a Mac. This is just the kind of problems I would expect from MS. Do they not realize that it makes the software completely unusable?
