You may need to use some other form of trickery. Such as, change to font
size on all, or part, of the page you need to fit more text on. Or, if you
are using a lot of white space, eliminate some of it.

There doesn't seem to be a "fix" for your problem, but work-arounds are
abundant.

4.5a error

Posted: 18 May 2005 10:20 AM PDT

Hi Rodney,
Ever since 4.5a, MS seemed to have degraded the usefulness of Works. After
going through ver 5, 6, 7 and being disappointed I decided to get Office
Pro. Each ver after 4.5a seemed to try to emulate Office anyway.
In Excel the Pivot table seems closest to Wks db report. I also have
imported Excel into Access and then used that for a report. Definitely not
as fast or easy as Works4.5a.
Keep up the good work. You and Kevin are the only ones left from the earlier
group, ie, Omar, Mark, Andrea and of course "David".
Cheers. JohnS.

WS 2005 SS - Font Size does not recognize CR

Posted: 17 May 2005 01:19 PM PDT

Thanks for responding.

But you do not need to do the whole SS.

I am able to change a single cell by selecting and then right-clicking
and selecting Format and then Font tab and then typing in the font size
change desired.

But trying the straight-forward top of page approach does not work when
I input the font by keyboard and CR.

Does any one know what is broken or what?

TIA,
Neil

Finding End of Line character inWorks database

G'day Don,
I'm sure our luminary, Kevin James would know.

Works Delete?

Posted: 09 May 2005 01:10 PM PDT

Rennie,
As a user of Office Pro, you have two mail clients installed on your
computer - Outlook (a more robust client), which is a part of Office, and
Outlook Express, which is a part of the Windows Operating System. Removing
Works will not remove either of your mail clients.

Need to get rid of "reserved by" password on a file in Word 2010

Posted: 06 Aug 2013 02:36 PM PDT

I've been looking all over the web trying to find an answer to this, but none of the solutions have worked yet. Maybe I'm just not asking the right question.

I have a file that gives me the message "'File Name' is reserved by Person's Name" and it requires a password if you want to open it.


All of the information I've seen after searching the web says that you simply need to turn off the password or change permissions to "Unrestricted Access," however, this document has no password encryption and the access is already unrestricted.



Does anyone have any idea of where this "reserved by" password is and how to get rid of it?

Footnotes and section break

Posted: 06 Aug 2013 02:22 PM PDT

In my thesis, I included section breaks at the beginning of each chapter so footnotes start at 1 each time. However, I want to change the layout of one single page to landscape in one chapter but keep the footnotes continuous - but with footnote 1 at the beginning of the chapter, not with the beginning of the document. Anyone knows how can I fix this? Is there any way to change the layout of a page without introducing a section break? 
Thanxs! 

Advanced Conditional Mail Merging

Posted: 06 Aug 2013 02:20 PM PDT

I am creating a master one-size-fits-all gift acknowledgement letter template to use in conjunction with Conga Mail Merge in Salesforce. My source data for the mail merge has dates formatted as MM/DD/YY and donation amounts formatted with two decimal places. The source data also includes a "total gifts" and a "total gifts last year" field. I have two questions:

1) I want to reformat the date and $ amount in the mail merge conditions. I want the date to be Month D, YYYY and the $ amount to only include cents if there is any. Is this possible? Because I am not completing the mail merge in Word, I can't just reformat the source data and use the "via DDE" to bring it over.

2) Can I do calculations in the merge fields? That is, can I say something like... { IF {MERGEFIELD Total_Gifts} > {{MERGEFIELD Amount} + {MERGEFIELD Total_Gifts_Last_Year}} "back" ""}

Remove "Book fold" Page Setup and Additional Pages Word 2010

Posted: 06 Aug 2013 01:58 PM PDT

I recently did a booklet with 132 pages. When the book fold setup was printing incorrectly (now realising due to all books having even page numbers on left hand side, not right), I changed the page setup back to 'normal' (obviously choosing "whole document"), but document still shows book fold connections on print preview and still prints as a booklet. When I go back in to page setup, it has not saved my changes.

 

Also, due to book fold setup, Word has inserted extra blank pages that I cannot remove as they do not show up unless I view in 'Print Preview'.

 

I have tried and tested 'clear formatting' and everything else I can think of, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Custom size; manual feed (MS Word 2010)

Posted: 06 Aug 2013 10:57 AM PDT

Just had a new computer installed, and am having difficulty with previously created Word documents (on a shared drive).  I have several docs that are set up as custom sizes (greeting card envelopes) for manual feed.  The current one I am working on is 7.1" W and 5" H, and those dimensions are in the Word document page setup. This same document has printed perfectly for years, however now when I feed manually the text doesn't line up.  It's as if the printer is not recognizing that the document is centered inside the manual feed printer guides. 

 

When I open the same document on a different computer, it prints fine.  Any suggestions?

Can I install Word 2007 with Office 2010 installed?

Posted: 06 Aug 2013 10:38 AM PDT

Hi all,

 

I installed the entire Office 2010 program a few years ago. As a technical writer, I find Word 2010 to be riddled with bugs compared to Word 2007. The MS fans call them "design changes." I call them a royal pain in the butt.

 

I would like to revert to Word 2007. Do I need to uninstall Word 2010, and then install Word 2007? Will that work? Many thanks.

Hide reviewer names in Word 2013

How do I restore my desktop icon?

Last night I used PC Fine Tune "Broken Shortcut Cleaner". This product: Finds and Removes all Invalid or Broken Shortcuts.  After I ran the cleaner, I found many programs missing entirely.

 

In addition, I did not see the Word icon on my desktop. I went into my documents and found all my Word documents still in place there. I was able to open them successfully without a problem.

 

But now I have no way of directly opening Word without first opening up a pre-existing documents. How do I restore my desktop icon?

 

Please help.

Inserting a drop down list

Posted: 06 Aug 2013 09:11 AM PDT

I am currently creating a risk analysis document and I am trying to figure a way where a user can select one of three choices (high, moderate, low) in one cell of a table and then in another cell it will reflect a line of text tied to that. In trying to develop a solution I researched and found a way to do it through use of the developer tab and and drop down list properties (note this ties it all into one cell instead of two which I originally wanted but this is fine) .  It works with one exception, it only allows a limited amount of text characters in the text description that goes with the high, moderate, low ratings which will not work for my situation. So two questions. 1 if this is the process how can I expand the amount of text I can use and two is there a better way to do this. Thanks for any and all help in advance.

re: SkyDrive app with Office 2007 and iPad

Posted: 06 Aug 2013 07:31 AM PDT

Hi All,

 

I have just discovered 'SkyDrive', but not yet having downloaded or used it yet, would like to know whether anyone here knows if it is capable of letting me upload a word document (.doc, .docx, .rtf) or a plain text/notepad document to the SkyDrive folder without it moving the text all over the shop and making it look like a real mess.

 

I believe this app is supposedly compatible with Windows Vista/MS Office as well as iPad/iPhone etc.

 

What I WANT to do is upload my (MS Word Document) CV to SkyDrive - 'on the web'? - from my Win Vista PC (in whatever format is the most compatible), then download it to my iPad, so that this document can then be saved on my iPad and sent as an attachment in an e-mail (using the native apple e-mail app) for job applications.

 

Is this possible using SkyDrive?

 

I have already wasted far too much time without success trying to make this happen with Documents Unlimited, and would like some advice from people here as to whether or not they have had success at trying to do this sort of thing and what apps they used.

 

IF this is possible, then no editing will be needed as my CV is currently saved in multiple formats (including plain text that has no 'fancy detailing' like tabs or underlining anyway).

 

I am happy to send it using either .doc or .docx formats for my CV, as both leave this document looking neat, tidy and very readable.

 

I don't like plain text or rtf versions as they look messed up and hard to read.

 

I have tried more than several times to open, view and edit my CV (using all four above file formats) on my iPad from within "Documents Unlimited", after e-mailing it to myself from my Win Vista Desktop, so that I could then e-mail this CV in job applications from my iPad.

 

Unfortunately no matter what file format I choose, to save, open or view or edit, this document, this "Documents Unlimited" iPad app cannot keep from messing up the text, so as to turn it into a horrible mess. 

 

Even if i re-write my CV from scratch, within the Documents Unlimited iPad app, and don't use ANY tabs, or bullet points but just BOLD for headings (plus increase font size of headings by two size points) and then save this 'new' document in Documents Unlimited, and e-mail it back to myself (from my iPad), then open this 'new' document, either on my iPad or in Office on my windows vista pc (just to check what a recipient using Windows and Office would receive), the text is messed up again!

 

Any/all advice is much appreciated,  :)

 

Thanks in advance,

 

:)

How do I mail merge percentages from excel?

Posted: 06 Aug 2013 06:17 AM PDT

I have Microsoft Office 2010 and during a mail merge I am unable to transfer percentages. I've tried multiple things. With the dynamic data exchange, it deletes my percentage fields and when I try to re add them they are no longer on the list. When trying to change the code through SHIFT-F9 and adding \# 00.00 the percent is displayed as .03% instead of 3%. When I change the code from {={MERGEFIELD "Data"}*100\#0%} I get an error.

How to preview Heading level 4 in the Automatic Table of Content?

Incorrect word wrap in column

Posted: 05 Aug 2013 06:40 PM PDT

I am having a similar problem but not a comment.  I have a Word 2010 document with a column break about half way into the first page.  After the column break I have two columns setup.  The problem I am having is on the first line of the second page, in the right-hand column, the text does not wrap when I reach the right margin.  I can still type but the text is not visible and neither is the cursor.  The text momentarily "flashes" while typing but other than that I can not see it.  After I hit enter to insert a CR/LF, the cursor show back up again on line 2.  If I go back up to the visible part of line 1 anywhere on that line and hit enter the invisible text moves down a line and becomes visible.

 

This only happens after the column break not on a page without a column break.  The error is not consistent and I can not tie it to a specific event or keystroke sequence.  The only work around I have found is to leave the first line on the page blank and start my text on line 2.

 

Microsoft phone support thinks this might be a bug.

headers stability issue

see more space to gain once the Online Defrag is done,right? And I will
definately start putting a mailbox limit!

Thank you very much.

First off I'll say it's a bad idea. Why? Well, most ISP's will offer
this for free so whoever is providing services for domain B will
provide a "fallback" MX record that the world will use in the event
that it can't reach the actual MX record for the domain B mail server.

So, how?
On the domain A server go into Exchange system manager and create a
Recipient Policy for domain B. Don't have it apply to anything by
filtering the recipients out.
Create an RG and an SMTP connector for this address space that tells
it where (smarthost) to deliver the mail.

Thanks Mark for your help,
The funny thing is I can ping, trace, and Terminal service to the server.
We are on the same subnet. I can telnet to the Exchange server from the
domain controller using port 25. If I start the telnet service, I can even
telnet to the server itself not using port 25. Just can't telnet to port 25
on the Exchange server.

Problem persists if CD is copied to hd. I assume it's no big deal since
pressing the 'ignore' button when the error message comes up does not appear
to interrupt the repair proces. Nevertheless, I just wondered what causes
this error. (I've seen the discussions on the alleged redundancy of
wisptis.exe)

I think the only download sites available would be WAREZ sites, or the MS

The WAREZ sites would probably prove to be detrimental to your PCs health

Office 2003 Upgrade New Install Yields 1608

Posted: 05 Dec 2004 08:21 AM PST

Thanks for the reply, but I had already read the article. None are the
causes are true in my case and the resolution is nothing more a very very
long description of putting in a CD. That much I already knew.
What I really need is information on what the installer is looking for,
because I have provided what I believe (and Microsofts documentation states)
should be necessary and installer still generates the 1608 error.
Does anyone in Microsoft have any clue what generates a 1608 error besides
"Setup could not locate a version...". I already know Setup could not locate
a version.., but a version was provided, so we need to get a more detailed
explanation as to what causes this problem.
Any help that can be provided would be appreciated.

How do I uninstall previous version of Outlook?

Posted: 04 Dec 2004 07:51 PM PST

Go to Control Panel>Add Remove Programs, and click on Office 2000, and then
click change (not remove) You can then follow the steps to remove a single
app (that is, Outlook). As posted in reply here, you must use the same
version of Word as Outlook if you use Word as an email editor.

Just a thought, you might try to install Office 2003 SBA complete in a
separate installation (choose custom installation and then install to a new
folder) and give the whole suite a try. For me it's much quicker, more
safe, and has a better "look and feel". Of course you may not agree but as
long as you have it why not try it! You would of course still have to
follow the rule of having only one version of Outlook installed, so you
would still have to uninstall OL 2000.

Office 97 Pro installation problem on Windows XP Pro (with SP2)

Hi, John. If you get a "Htmlmarq.ocx was unable to register itself in the
system registry" error message when you try to install Office 97, you can
avoid this error by performing a custom installation in which you deselect
Web Page Authoring
(HTML) in the Office 97 setup options.

Cannot open office 2000 Pro docs once I install Office 2003 Pro

With Word closed, search your hard drive for the OFFICEAV.DLL file. Include
hidden and system files and folders in your search. When you find it, note
the folder where the file is located. Click on Start | Run. In the "Open"
dialog box, type the following command (including quotes):

Regsvr32 -U "C:\<path>\OfficeAV.dll"

Replace <path> with the directory path for your OfficeAV.dll file. Click on
OK. You only have to run this command once (not every time you restart your
computer). You should get the message: "DllUnregisterServer in
C:\<path>\OfficeAV.dll succeeded." Your Office 2000 files should open
properly now.

Thanks, Bob. I didn't know about the newsgroups. In fact, there is a

To save others the trouble of searching:

use Tools -> Schedules to create a new schedule item. The item is to move

to move only items older than x days or move them every time you Quit or

Office 2003 Deploy-Makes no sense or by design??

Posted: 01 Dec 2004 07:47 PM PST

Hi Fletch,

This one is a long one, sorry :)

You do not need that long setup command line.
If you place your mst file in the same dir of the msi file (Which is the
recomended way), simply change the setup.ini/setuppro.ini file. The file
resides in ..\FILES\SETUP

In there locate the [MST] section and change the name of the mst file name
to match yours.

Simply running setup.exe without anything else will do.
It automatically calls setup.ini to read the install instructions.

You may have problems then, that are related to relative paths of the
install files so here is what i usually do:

It goes without saying that this will work only with Enterprise/Volume
license media and CDkey...

Server Side:
-----------------
On a file server you normally use, that might be already mapped to users,
make sure this is your directory structure (example):
D:\Apps\Office\Office2003\ <- in here lies the admin point.
Both MSI and MST should be in it. This structure is needed mainly
for security reason.

D:\Apps should be shared, and then mapped as a drive, say P:
so users will see this:
P:\office\office2003

Using a mapped drive is better in this case, as any MSI install records the
original location from where is was installed and then looks for that
location in cases where a reinstall is requested or it needs install source
to fix itself.
Thus if at a later point the original file server that hosted the admin
point is not available, all you need to do is to copy the entire admin point
to another server and simply map the same drive letter to the new server.

If the installation isnt done from a mapped drive, then the user will have
to direct to the new install point (that might be an issue) or youll need a
script to add/change the source location in the registry for each station.

With correct planning you can even overcome this one, In the MST file you
can add install locations, so you can add P:\Office\Office2003 and also
\\Server\Apps\Office\Office2003 thus giving Office better resiliency in
finding the paths and you can even enhance that by creating 2 admin points on
2 servers, and add both locations in the MST file, as long as you remember
the paths should be the ones the end user will see from his station. This is
usually the scenario with big companies that have dispersed file servers and
want the minimize bandwidth consumption by directing users to the closest
file server (using Windows DFS also helps in this case).

In your MST file, make sure you added the NOUSERNAME=True property.

You can also use this property on the command line, so youll not have to
create 2 identical MST files, one for Ghosting an Image and one for normal
use (If you have stations you only want Office 2003 installed on their
existing OS).

More info:
http://www.microsoft.com/office/ork/2003/two/ch5/DepC05.htm

Last thing, edit the setup.ini to include full paths, both uder the MSI
and the MST sections. Use the drive letter for this.


Pre-Ghosted station side:
-------------------------------
Make sure the Drive P: is mapped

Run setup.exe -> P:\Office\Office2003\Setup.exe
You can also add the NOUSERNAME property as discussed above.
(use the newer version of enterprise setup.exe)

Do NOT open any Office application after setup finishes.

Run sysprep, with your custom sysprep.inf, and immediatly after it restarts,
use a GHOST floppy (with or without network) you created to take a GHOST of
the station.
I would recommend you use the Ghost enterprise product (7.5+) as it holds
much more then simple GHOST.

Print this (it is long...), read and then execute.

Safe deployment !
