Exchange Problems

Posted: 06 Jun 2005 10:00 AM PDT

There's probably some big SBS wizard for it, but run ADU&C (start |
run | dsa.msc and then right click on an OU, say new | contact and
follow the steps. Ensure you enter the external smtp address when
prompted and say yes (tickbox) to create an Exchange alias (that's
key)

No "Exchange Tasks" on Domain Controllers

Posted: 06 Jun 2005 05:55 AM PDT

Hi Customer,

Thanks for posting here! Thanks Mark much for GREAT INFO!

I agree with Mark that if you would like to see Exchange Tasks or create
mail-enabled user in Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC) snap-in of
Domain Controller, you need to install Exchange System Management Tools.
More info here:

XADM: Exchange Tasks and Tabs Missing from Active Directory
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=322836

To install Exchange System Management Tools only, insert the Exchange
Server 2003 CD-ROM, click "Exchange Deployment Tools", and then click
"Install Exchange System Management Tools Only" in the "Welcome to the
Exchange Server Deployment Tools" dialog box.

Hope this helps. If there is anything unclear, feel free to let me know.
Thanks!

Large mailstore move fails

Posted: 06 Jun 2005 03:40 AM PDT

Basically the system is a 2 node cluster running on HP Proliant servers
connected to an HP shared storage box. HP called it a cluster in a box.

We are migrating the stores to a 'real' SAN.

Nothing is logged with regard to the store move, the only related info in
the event log is 2 entries for MMC hanging.

-------------------
Hanging application mmc.exe, version 5.2.3790.1830, hang module hungapp,
version 0.0.0.0, hang address 0x00000000.

-------------------
Fault bucket 183421130.

-------------------
Thanks
Richard

3 months of Free/Busy published when meeting added by BlackBerry

Posted: 02 Jun 2005 02:13 PM PDT


Thanks for the reply.
We have that Registry entry in place with 35 months. OWA does use it
because I can see the 35 months after OWA adds a meeting. However, it
appears that BlackBerry does NOT use it because I still see only 3 months of
Free/Busy when a BB is the most recent system to add a meeting. I realize
BlackBerry is a CDO application, but apparently there is another path through
the Free/Busy update process.

OWA & Eudora

The thing is that our current setting in Eudora is to NOT leave the messages
on the server so there is nothing left on the server to access. We could
start now leaving the messages on the server but that wouldn't help with
everything downloaded so far and the address book.

IMC message store in Exchange 5.5

Posted: 31 May 2005 04:18 PM PDT

Ok, so if that's not a good source of archive material for incoming and
outgoing email to the domain - where is then?

And is there any way of decoding anything but the most basic info from these
files anyway. The sources and destinations and basic content is there but it
seems strange that it's not possible to decode any attachments which are
encoded in them. If not, what is the point of having them?

exchange attributes

Posted: 31 May 2005 11:44 AM PDT

hi Jason,

Try right-clicking on your domain in ADU&C, and selecting Find. In the Find
window, click the Exchange tab, and select "Show only Exchange recipients"
and "Users with Exchange mailbox". Leave everything else unchecked. Click
"Find Now"

That should bring up a list of all users that are mail enabled. Select that
list (after confirming the list contains what you want), right click and
select "Exchange Tasks". Follow the wizard to remove the Exchange
attributes.

(Note that I didn't look into your original message, this is simply how I
would remove Exchange Attributes from multiple mail enabled users)

Internal and External domain name behind firewall

Posted: 31 May 2005 11:39 AM PDT

"jason.sigurdur" <org> wrote in message
news:%phx.gbl... 

You just want the External one. It is directly related to the E-Mail
address construction. The "mail domain" shown in the "official" Email
Addresses of the users is what you want.

For example if:
your internal Domain is "domain.loc"
your Public external Domain is "domain.com"
The recipient Policy therefore, uses "@domain.com"
 

Pointless to worry about. Nothing reasonable you can do about it anyway.
Your internal IP# addresses are *meaningless* to anyone on the outside,...we
are pretty much *all* using the same set of RFC Private address ranges,
there is no "big secret" about them and they are not compatible nor routable
on the Internet and they cannot be used as "destinations" from the outside.
So it is pointless to worry about your mail server's IP# showing in the mail
headers.

People get way too paranoid about things that don't even matter,... and then
do all kinds of headstands and cartwheels to deal with them,...when it is
just a lot of wasted energy and labor over something that means nothing.

Microsoft Word - Can't get rid of unwanted white space in tables

Microsoft Word - Can't get rid of unwanted white space in tables


Can't get rid of unwanted white space in tables

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 02:46 PM PDT

Word seems to have added some extra white space before and after the text in some of the a cells of a table.  I have the spacing set to 0 before and after for all text, and the line spacing set to single.  If I select all the rows in the table, the blue highlight that indicates selection goes all the way from the top to bottom for some cells, but for other cells there are white stripes above and below the selected text.  If I create a new row, and copy a paste the text into the new row, there are sometimes no white stripes, but I cannot remove the white stripes in the rows that already have them.  What is going on?

Change document size from A 4 to A5

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 01:45 PM PDT

Suzanne, I have originated a doc  (Word 2010) as A4 but I want to save a copy as A5 so that when it is attached to an e mail it will print as A5. When I try to save the doc as A5 from its original A4 it splits the doc across two pages (ish).  How do I change the size of an existing doc (in this case A4->A5)? Thanks for any help.

Word 2007 watermark issue in Windows 7

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 12:54 PM PDT

Hi folks,

I have a word document with a image (png file) as watermark. I'm able to view the file correctly but every time my watermark is not printed.
I've lost two days searching around the web for any answers to this problem. I tried everything I've found in any forums. 99% of tips refers to going on the Print Options and check the Print Colors and background.

But here is what I've tried so far:
  1. Created a blank file, inserted a watermark and tried to print (Machine Win7 and Office 2007) ->Nothing happens.
  2. Same as 1, but using now a Windows XP and Office 2007 -> It prints OK.
  3. File created in 1, printed on XP machine -> It goes OK.
  4. File created in 2, printed on Win7 machine -> Nothing happens.

I did compare the word's options in both computers. Turned them to be equal. I also tried a second machine with Win7 and got the same results.

All this machines are using the same printer.

Both Win7 machines are 64bit. Windows XP machine is 32bit.


Has anyone seen a problem like this before?

Is there any related bug?

I'm very inclinated to think that there is some kind of bug related only with Win7 + Office 2007, so far.

Fill multiple fields in multiple word files using fields from one file

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 10:17 AM PDT

Hey guys,
since I got lots of editing to do (same stuff over multiple projects) I'm looking for a way to edit one file (word file) and replace the fields I need over multiple files, where are names and numbers and addresses and so on. So I was thinking about a "way" to do this but I don't know how to do it :D
Example:
I want to have one file containing the name, address, receipt number, ID card, etc., fields that I need in 6-7 word files containing one, two or more fields that need to appear in each, preferably without opening them (but it's not a must).
Is this possible somehow? Or can I do something similar that can satisfy my needs? 


word 2010 macro to conditionally format a paragrah

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 10:15 AM PDT

Let me preface this with the fact that I am using windows 7, office 2010, and I am using a workstation on a network with severe administrative limitations.

So- I have a template with a form on the last page that completely automates the process of a business letter (with regards to content) using text form fields, IF fields, ref fields, and a whole plethora of bookmarks. However, I have one last piece of automation that I cannot do.

Due to the IF fields having widely different amounts of characters depending on whether the true or false text is displayed, there are many variables in the actual output, which causes the final product to either: a) fit on a single page, or b) spill onto page 2. Of course, the simple answer is to unlock the document, and manually insert a page break before the paragraph. However, the users I am creating this for are very simple end users and I want to make the process completely automated and "idiot proof" if you will.

What I need is a macro that would do something like this:
(IF any "paragraph" = spans 2 pages, THEN insert pagebreak before)

I don't know visual basic very well though and the last time I learned to code was HTML in notepad haha. Can anyone help me? Thank you in advance!

How do you post pictures on to a Word Document - tried adjusting Advanced options to no avail -

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 09:43 AM PDT

I am currently having trouble copying and posting pictures and some other content that is on the internet or from other documents in some cases.

 

I have tried looking at the website on the short video's on how to and also "Googled' the troubleshooting options.

 

I do not like to keep changing the format of the advanced options as then when it comes to the next document - I am faced with another issue.

 

I have been making do by saving the picture by itself and then inserting the picture that way. I am not sure if it is my fault.

 

Some people on here are very cruel and will tell me it is just the same as the red square you receive. I just want the ease to copy and paste with the picture included.

 

If some one could just let me know if I have it set up correctly.

 

 

Thank you

Two problems with endnotes

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 09:17 AM PDT

I am using Word 2010.

 

I have two issues regarding endnotes that I cannot resolve.

 

Here are two example endnotes.

 

1        some text here which is justified

 

2        a long sentence here which is justified and will move to the next line

like this

 

I want the space between each number and the text to be the same.  The problem if I do it manually is that - because the endnotes are justified - the space between the number and the text is not identical.

 

Is there a way to automatically set the same spacing?

 

Also, before the endnotes I have a heading like so.

 

NOTES

[space]

[space]

[space]

1         some text here

 

How can I remove the spaces?  They are not actually spaces so I cannot place the curser on them.

 

Thanks!

Word pointer/cursor

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 08:24 AM PDT

Windows 7 with all updates.  Set up the mouse cursor/pointer to be an extra large black cursor pointing slightly to the left. Works fine in all programs except Word where the cursor reverts back to to a tiny white cursor pointing slightly to the right.  In PowerPoint and Access the cursor does not change from extra large black to tiny white.  How can Word be modified to use the same cursor color, size and shape as in the rest of Windows 7?

How to transfer autocorrect/autotext from word 2003 to word 2007

Hello!

Thanks so much for your guidance!

Copy formatted TOC to separate document?

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 06:46 AM PDT

I need to make a separate, formatted, stand-alone copy of the TOC for a long document, but, as I understand it, I first need to remove the field codes so that broken hyperlinks don't create error messages where the page numbers should be.

Problem is that when I try Ctrl+Shift+F9 (which should remove the field codes?) it doesn't seem to have any effect and the field codes all remain unaltered.

What is particularly frustrating is that I did somehow manage (yesterday!) to copy the TOC successfully - and email it to someone - but I can't for the life of me now work out how I did it. Meantime I've been asked to add a further level of headings to the TOC, and the new TOC defies all my attempts to copy it.

alt f9 view field codes not working

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 06:28 AM PDT

Hi can somebody help me please?

 

The Alt F9 shortcut - ViewFieldCodes is not working in Word.

 

I have reset the keyboard shortcuts within Word even though the ViewFieldCodes was showing ALT F9 as the shortcut keys.

 

Both Alt and the F9 key work for other shortcuts e.g. Alt F11 works and Shift F9 works.  It just appears to be the combination of ALT + F9 key that doesn't. 

 

It doesn't work on my laptop keyboard nor does it work if I plug a keyboard in.

 

Any ideas please as I use the toggle fields option.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

thanks.

I cant transfer information from one computer to the other because of permission problems

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 04:43 AM PDT

I use two computers and have an external hard-drive which automatically backs up all changes made to each respective computer.

 

 I have WD Smartware on both computers so in theory  I should be able to retrieve any information saved on either computer and transfer it to the other. This works OK one way but not the other as I am getting access denied due to permissions on one computer. 

 

 I can't see how to change the permissions on the computer concerned.  If I look at all the files on both computers the 'system' line is highlighted with the blue colour and then all the permission boxes are ticked so both computers seem to have full system permission but I can only presume there must be somewhere to change the default security setting .

 

I had a look at adding the name of the computer that doesn't seem to be able to open the files but the system on the computer that is locking the files didn't seem to like the name that I tried to put on.  (I copy and pasted the name that the computer has as the option on the external hard-drive).

 

I don't really know what I am doing and I have spent days reading lots of answers on the support pages to get this far but now I seem to have drawn a blank.

 

Can someone help me please!

If I open up Word or Excel, I can find the file to open through downloads but it is a hassle. How can I fix the problem so that I can open attachments straight from email?

Also, if I have a saved Office file on my computer I cannot open it without opening up the individual program first and doing it through that e.g. open Word first and then open the Word file. How can I fix this?

I'd appreciate any help.

Bold and Italics buttons aren't working in Word 2013

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 12:01 AM PDT

In Word 2013, I try to click the bold and italic buttons in order to begin typing in that format and nothing happens, it just remains normal. The same thing happens when I try to to use keyboard shortcuts ctrl+b and ctrl+i. Please help!

Edit: This is constantly happening and then fixing itself and seems to be mainly or only affecting the Times New Roman font.

Can't open Word files from documents themselves

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 11:40 PM PDT

Hi All

I'm working with the Office 2013 suite. Recently I have come across a problem whereby I cannot open directly a Word (or Excel etc) file. If I double-click on a file, I get an error message, which says "The converter failed to save the file". The file will open BUT it is a [read only] [compatibility mode] document with a file name such as wd0000084 and it can only be saved by using Save As. 

I can work around this by opening the same file from within Word (i.e. opening Word, then navigating to the file and opening it). Not ideal.

Any suggestions on how I can sort out these issues?

Many thanks
Lesley

Can't open doc - says moved, renamed or deleted

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 11:02 PM PDT

I am trying to open a document in Word but a dialogue box keeps telling me:
"Sorry, we couldn't find your file.  Is it possible it was moved, renamed or deleted?"
It then states the correct name of the document and where I filed it.
I am using Windows 8

In Word how can I suppress a duplicate date field?

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 10:40 PM PDT

Hi There

 

Can anyone assist?

 

I have created a contract document which states the event date at the top

Event_StartDate - Event_End Date

However if the event is only a one day duration the date is duplicated eg. Thursday 3 October, 2013 - Thursday 3 October, 2013

 

Can anyone advise the conditional statement so that the start and end date display IF they are different, however if the date is the same then suppress?

 

I've been mucking around with this for ages and can't find the right commands.

 

Thanks in advance

word asks me for e-mail, then says it doesn't exist and to use the proper e-mail that is linked to this product, even though it should be. Activation problem?

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 06:50 PM PDT

When I go into word, it tells me to activate it and it asks me for my e-mail address.  I type in my university e-mail, and it says it could not be found. I then try my hotmail account e-mail, and it asks me for the password, and after that it says it isn't associated with this account, and to sign in with the account associated with my product. I got both my computer and office from my college bookstore, so it should be legit. But yet it says its an unlicensed product and I can't use it to its full functionality until it's activated.  

cursor appearance in word 2003

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 06:20 PM PDT

Word works just fine. All I need to do is change the appearance of the standard vertical bar "insert" cursor so that it's maybe thicker and more easily visible?

Sometimes I have trouble finding the slender vertical bar when I'm ready to click to insert text.

Thanks!

I need to copy a graphic in Word that I created in Word '03. In '03 I could select the graphic arrow and then highlight and copy. How is this done in Word '10 and '13?

MS Word Spacing

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 05:01 PM PDT

Hi Microsoft Community,

I want to know how to stop MS Word from adding extra space between texts in a sentence, in certain paragraphs.

I'm not looking to adjust the space between paragraphs but rather the space between texts in a sentence that seem to magically create itself.

Can you tell me why this may be happening and how I can fix it?

Thanks in advance.

Since the unicode for the ° seems to be b0 (hex) and since the op
seems to use Ubuntu, I think the easiest thing to do is either to do
the Ctrl+Shift+u b0 Enter thing, or the Compose key o o thing. The
Ctrl+Shift+u thing works out of the box, while the Compose key thing
perhaps needs you to do some easy settings, like deciding which key is
the compose key. I use Caps Lock for it, since it's a totally useless
key anyway. So in my case I press Caps Lock, release it, then press o
twice. Then the ° appears. Caps Lock o c gives a ©, Caps Lock % o
gives a ‰ and so on. To set which key is the compose key, click
[System â†' Preferences â†' Keyboard â†' Layouts â†' Layout options… â†'
Position for the Compose key] (or something like that â€" I have the
Swedish version of Ubuntu so I just translated from Swedish).

Regards

[discuss] How should OOo deal with ods-spreadsheets producedby Excel 2010?

Might it be possible to treat it like a spellcheck error, identifying
the problem but supplying the equivalent formulation for acceptance with
manual action, and perhaps the converted value as another possibility?
 

If the contained value is available as a "spellcheck" type option, it
could be used here, too. They wouldn't have to accept the value, but
they could see it.
 

I think so -- something like "This spreadsheet was prepared by an
application that does not conform to the [projected] Open Formula
standard. Some issues with formulas are likely."

All this is just my half-cent's worth (I certainly won't claim two
cents, I'm a very low-level user of spreadsheets!). But anything we can
reasonably do to improve interoperability, while making it clear where
the problem actually lies, seems like a "good thing" to me.

[discuss] OpenOffice.org and OpenDocument Format

Posted: 15 Apr 2010 04:16 AM PDT

ReHi Everybody:

I have been using Oo for some years, often in non-profit environments. I use
it in English, French and Spanish. I also like Lars' comments about the
competitive aspect of Oo and its competitors.

Ideally the open source concept also stands for the moral principal that
over-competition or under competition in any market are undesirable.

Since I love language and cultural diversity, I am happy to see Oo support
as many languages as possible, which makes me also think of the languages of
our diversity of native North Americans.

I often say to people around here: "When you live in Montreal, you don't
have to spend money to get on an airplane, the whole world is at our
doorstep - 50 or more languages in a day!"

Culturally, it also reminds me of the reason why Gloria Estafan put out her
CD "Abriendo Puertas" - as a protest against all of the petty linguistic
pride (orgullo, or condescending pride) between different Spanish-speaking
countries and their different dialects. The CD won a Grammy, and Kudos!

When, from Canada, I think about smaller and/or less fortunate countries who
have adopted Oo, and the ISO approval for the open formats, I think this is
global progress. < Qu'on se le dise.>

In my 4 years in Toastmasters, I have also used these 3 Languages in my
speeches a number of times to make a point.

I also use Oo in Linux (Fedora 12) and do a lot with Oo Draw and its CADoo
add-on.

Typically, I save in Open format first, then resave in the MS format, and/or
as a .PDF, as many of my circle of people communicate from employers'
computers where they are not free to install anything more than they are
given.

Since I also own a Hewlett-Packard iPAQ, for that I am forced to export to
MS or .PDF, as that device uses Windows Mobile 5. Eventually I will phase
that device out for a number of reasons.

Sometimes when Vector graphics (such as Oo Draw are involved) I find it is
better to print to a Ghostscript printer driver to get the .PDF, but
generally from an .ODT, the built-in works better.

Cheers, everybody!

Bruce Martin.

+1 I had to think about it a long time, too.

It looks to me like the idea is to ensure that it is as simple and clear
as possible to keep the original as ODF.

The save / save as dialogs regarding the format are also a bit unclear,
but I have not thought of any better alternative to the wording we
currently have.

And since this is a discussion, one of the monopolies we are having
problems with is the monopoly on office formats. Steering people away
from ODF helps re-inforces that monopoly, making it harder to use OOo.
It also increases the revenue available to our competition, because
having a monopoly results (or is defined by) being able to set the
prices far above the proper market value.

Essentially you are using a focused XML validator. This is correct. But
Microsoft has by their own stated yardstick broken interoperability[1] which
was their stated goal. This makes their version worse than a joke, it is a
cynical, intentional attempt to lessen the usefulness of ODF via exploitation
of a loophole. All other implementations substantially conform with each
other where practical. Future versions of ODF will not be compatible with
this Microsoft joke. It employs a known strategy of Microsofts which is
thankfully being increasingly recognised (see "Embrace, Extend and
Extinguish" [2])

Therefore i recommend that what the Validator should do is flag Microsoft's
vindictive implementation with a suitable warning about lack of inter-
operability and lack of support by other implementers. Anything less would be
irresponsible.
 

Not being able to speak either on behalf of the Committee or Oracle/Sun but i
would surmise that Calc will rightly continue to ignore this broken doomed
implementation. Furthermore i would if i were you, look into the proprietary
nature of the Microsoft implementation. I would not be at all surprised if
there is a either a submarine patent or one of Microsofts own patents held on
something involved in Excels ODF formulas. Microsoft's OOXML promise not to
sue may not even extend to ODF. See the recent i4i case as a reference[3].

It has been made patently aware that Microsoft are not willing to conform to
International Standards even of their own making unless they are forced to.
Office 2010 will not be supporting the full ISO OOXML implementation as
expected and thus the standard is now in doubt with no supporting
implementations. Refer if you will to the Blog of Alex Brown the convener of
the BRM meeting which forced this standard through[4]. Alex's stand is very
surprising given he was seen as a warm supporter of Microsoft during the ISO
standardisation process. Also read the apologist statement of Doug Mahugh on
this sad issue[5].
