Word 2013 problem - Word isn't your default program...

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 03:20 PM PDT

Hi, I have a problem with Word 2013.  I just downloaded it yesterday.  I opened it up, and it gave me this warning:
I clicked Yes and put a check next to everything except .rtf (Rich Text Document), and clicked Save.  Now, my problem is, every time I close and reopen Word, it comes up with the same message box.  How do I save the settings so it is the default program for everything except .rtf?

page numbering not being retained

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 02:34 PM PDT

I am writing a book. It has about 200 pp now but will probably end up being over 300. Each chapter is a separate section, but I have it set for the numbering to be continuous through all chapters to the end. The number is not to be displayed on the first page of each chapter but in the header on other pages.

I have done this procedure a hundred times on other books written in Office3, Office 7 and now Office 10, setting numbers in each chapter to pick up the number from the previous chapter (having a different header (empty) for the beginning of each chapter. But this time I can go through the and set this up. It all looks fine, then the next time I open the document, the numbering has gone back to starting over with each chapter. I have now reset the number a dozen times, but the numbering is not being retained. 

Please, what can I do? I am slowly going mad.

Word file that saved only the last phrase and the rest is gone

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 01:10 PM PDT

I'll try to be as neat as possible. I had this word file of about 15 pages, it's a document that grows every day since it's a translation so it's very precious for me. Nedless to say I hit the save button every 5 minutes or even less, so yes, I DID saved it before closing it. In fact, when I opened it after a few hours, the only thing I found was the last phrase I wrote - at the top of a new page - and all the other pages before it are gone. No sign of them. How is this possible???? Where are they? Is there any way to find them? I've already searched in all the temporary files and in the entire computer but nothing. I'm desperate. Please help!!!

inserting mergfields with switches into and if then else statements

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 12:14 PM PDT

In Mailmerge, I'm trying to create and format a mergefield that returns an interger.  If the mergefield result is less than 10, I want it to return cardinal text (e.g. two, three or four) and if the mergefield is greater than or equal to 10, I want it to return numerals, (e.g. 10, 11 or 12).  I know that the switch for cardinal text is \* CardText.  I'm unable to insert this logic into the field codes.  Help?  Thanks in advance.

Potentially Corrupt Word Files

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 10:35 AM PDT

Although I'm unsure of exactly what to Google or search for, I have a Word file that seems to corrupt from time-to-time with no real common trigger. I've ensured that this document launched new from an established template that is widely used, so I know that there is no legacy issues from a document that has been passed around. I've also not copied in an elements from other documents that may have been corrupt, generating everything from within this new, clean version.

The problem is that Word will all of a sudden have many lines (almost looks like page breaks) being repeated with no end in sight at half-inch intervals. I can still see an accurate word and page count on the tracker, but this content is no longer visible. Once this occurs, the screen starts to act sporadic at best. However, this can occur on a random page within the document, leaving everything that occurs ahead of it just fine.

Once this issue happens, some other things I have noticed is the inability to insert a traditionally flashing cursor into the text and styles within the Paragraph Styles palette disappearing as the cursor hovers over it.

I look forward to any advice that can be given.

migrating Word 2010 into Word 2013

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 09:57 AM PDT

I can use my Normal.dotm of Word 2010 in Word 2013 but the problem is that doing that way I would always have "compatibility mode" whenever I create a new docx in Word 2013 and I want to avoid that.

I was able to migrate my macros and styles from Normal.dotm of Word 2010 to Normal.dotm of Word 2013 using the "Organize dialog" box Do you know a way to migrate also my many shortcuts that I had at the Normal.dotm of Word 2010.

header and footer disappear when copy/pasting from document with section breaks

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 09:17 AM PDT

Hi,

Urgent need of help please! My organization is trying to create a global template for everyone to use. 

When someone copy/pastes from a document with section breaks into the template, the template's header and footer disappears on certain pages.

Is there any way to tell the global template NOT to transfer over breaks from a copy/paste? Or is it possible to lock the header and footer fullproof to the point that copy/pasting breaks wont alter it?

Essentially need a full-proof header footer for a template that wont EVER disappear, even from pasting line breaks.

MS Word 2010 tabs

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 08:35 AM PDT

We use MS Word 2010 and are and have been experiencing difficulty with the tabs settings.

 

In particular when a tab is present in a document we are only able to move it once.  To move it again we need to save, close and reopen the document.  When we attempt to use the ruler to set or adjust the tab we do not get the pointer arrow,  all we get is the double stacked box icon for setting the top and bottom margins. 

 

We operate in a server environment.  What can be done to fix this issue?  Is it a global setting?

 

It is very frustrating and time comsuming for our staff.

 

Thank you,

Why are my pictures being replaced?

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 08:16 AM PDT

I'm working on a 100+ page document that contains screenshots and icons inline with text.  I'm having bizarre problems that I've never seen before in Word. 

 

Several of my pictures are being replaced with other pictures.  For example, I've added icons inline with text like this:  "Click the View Details [pic of the View Details button] button."

 

In a lot of places in the document my [pic of the View Details button] has been replaced with [pic of a number icon]. 

 

Does anyone have clues as to why this is happening?  I can fix them, but would like to prevent the cause of the problem if possible.

 

 

add-in custom menu

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 07:12 AM PDT

I am looking at upgrading some clients from Word 2003 to Word 2010 and I am having a problem with a custom menu that was created in Word 2003. I am using the same document template as was used in 2003 as there are many macros associated with that template. Each item on the custom menu calls a macro to do various functions. The problem in Word 2010 is that on the add-in tab on the ribbon, the menu name is displayed but not enabled so I cannot access any of the menu items. Any information on how to get the menu enabled would be appreciated. As an alternative, I can create new tabs and setup new menus and then just hide the add-ins tab. Thanks - Kevin

Office 2013 - Excel to Word Mail Merge will not retain formatting

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 05:55 AM PDT

Hi

 

Since upgrading to Office 2013 I'm having trouble with a mail merge document, in that previously it would retain formatting of percentages, currency figures etc, whereas now I get figures pulling through of for example '7.0000000000000007E-2'  instead of '7%'.  In earlier versions of Word you were able to select an option when picking the data source of 'MS Excel via DDE' which would solve any issues of this kind, but I can't see where to select this option in Word 2013.  I'm aware I could re-write all the merge fields with switches to force the formatting but I'd rather not as there are quite a few and it would be time-consuming to re-edit all my other Word merge documents. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Joe

Sharing Auto Text

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 05:51 AM PDT

Is there a way to put standard auto text for Word say on a shared drive, where all users could go and access it? So the purpose would be to have a central, standardized auto text file that could be periodically updated/maintained by one person, and then all users with Word could go into the location of the auto text on the shared drive and update their's periodically?

I want to change my name in Microsoft Word 2010, and possibly Microsoft Office as well!

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 05:14 AM PDT

I noticed that on some 'Word' 2010 documents I have written that when I right click on it and select 'Properties' and then click on 'Details' that my name appears in the 'Authors' and 'Last saved by' strands. On some other 'Word' documents the name is different or not there at all. WHat I want to know is this: can I change my name and details in all the many 'Word' documents quickly and easily and at the same time, AND can I change my name in Microsoft Office, so that any subsequent Office program I use like 'Word' 'Excel' or whatever will record whatever name I choose or just be blank? Any help gratefully appreciated!

Inserting an image of size 16* 16 in word add in is duplicated ?

Posted: 11 Oct 2013 04:32 AM PDT

In the Word Add In, I am adding an small tickmark image of size 16*16 in current selection range. It is inserting the tick image in current selection properly, but the issue is if we click on the Enter key after inserting the image, the image is shrink and duplicated.

The code I have implemented is.

MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(imageData);

Image img = Image.FromStream(ms);

Image image = new Bitmap(img, 16, 16);

// convert to a gif so image background's transparency is not lost

const string tempfile = "TickmarkImage.gif";

image.Save(tempfile);

if (selection != null)

{

Range range = selection.Range;

 

//insert the image

if (range != null)

{

range.Start = range.End;

range.InsertParagraph();

selection.InlineShapes.AddPicture(tempfile, false, true, range);

 

}

 

//move down after adding the picture

selection.MoveRight();

}

 

Any Help is highly appreciated.

Does anyone know why all of a sudden our Microsoft office home and student 2010 is having issues? We've had it on our computer for over a year and a half no problem. Then last week my daughter goes to use it and it won't open. So, we uninstall had some issues there finally got the program uninstalled and then reinstalled.
Everything is fine EXCEPT the Word program it has the look of the old 2003 version.  Is there a fix or patch we are missing that might correct this? I've about drove myself insane trying to get this straightened out.

If Office XP is currently installed on your computer, then you can download
and install one of these utilities:

Belarc Advisor

Magical Jellybean Finder
http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder.shtml

.... and use the utility to locate the 25-digit product key that was used to

Problems using OfficeUpdate

Posted: 08 Aug 2005 01:42 PM PDT

Ditto for me. This started after I moved ALL files on my 'c' drive (WD120)
over to a Maxtor 250 using Max Blast 4 for windows. Everything else is
working fine from my new 'c' drive which is the Maxtor.

I am unable to even start the Office 2003 cd to try to do a 'repair'. In my
"OfficeUpdate11" directory there is a folder called 'CABS' with nothing in
it. There is where the .MSP files are stored on your computer and mine has
absolutely nothing in it. On my WD120 (my old 'c' drive) there is also
nothing in the 'CABS' subdirectory. Without the proper file - Office Update
will not work. That file is in /CAB511735/511735.mainsp1op.msp -- if anyone
knows how to get this back on my computer - I would be most grateful!

Thanks,
Jim McCants

I have a workstation with Windows XP Home and Office XP Pro that is
unable to run Office Updates online, and even has problems when I try to
uninstall or reinstall Office.

When I try to run updates from the website, I get this message:

Office Update is unable to check for updates

The Office Update site is unable to check for updates on this computer.
This may be happening because of one of the following reasons:

1) You do not have administrative privileges for this computer.
2) There is a network problem and the detection catalog used by the
Office Update site failed to download. Go back to the Downloads home
page and try running detection again.
3) Windows Installer patch files (.MSP files) from previously applied
Office updates are missing from the \Windows\Installer hidden directory
on your computer. MSP files are stored on your computer after update
installation completes because they need to be referenced for future
update operations. If the files are missing you will not be able to
apply Office updates. You may also be unable to uninstall Office
products as a result of the same problem. Please contact Microsoft
Product Support Services for assistance.

I'm definately an admin on the machine (I tripled checked), I was even
able to download the updates and attempte to run (still would not), and
so I'm assuming the problem has something to do with the MSP files. I
tried to run setup from the CD to reinstall/repair and it would not
work, but I forgot to log the error message. Same problem if I tried to
uninstall Office so that I could reinstall it again.

The \Windows\Installer directory exists and has a bunch of files. Is
there something else I can check for? Or something I can do to try to
get this resolved?

Thanks,
Scott

Hi Brian,
 

Who told you to do this??
 

Your Frontpage files and email will almost certainly be OK. You can
check your Frontpage files by browsing the web location with Windows
Explorer - you should see some text files with an *.htm extension.

Try to Uninstall the whole of Office and re-install, if that won't work,
try Uninstall followed by the Windows Installer Clenup Utility, then
re-install.

1)Since Office2003 requires activation you wont be able to, as it is
allready activated.
2) If the PC from which copy was taken has a virus it is quite possible it
was passed on
3) It depends exactly what file NAV was reporting as suspect, and the msg it

Posted: 03 Aug 2005 12:10 PM PDT

Hi Philippe,
 

Is this the only problem now, did you solve everything else?

I'm not sure of the proper way to check product GUIDs, but I have done
it in the past using a combination of MSI log files and the registry.
e.g. here's my home computer registry:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Installer\Products\904000001E872 D116BF00006799C897E

Under this key it says:

PackageCode:
E7E5BD6FEA6EC0847A5FA062C0E4CF8D

PruductName:
Microsoft Office 2000 SR-1 Premium

Now let's look at HKLM:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall\{00000409-78E1-11D2-B60F-006097C998E7}

InstallSource:
D:\Office\o2kadm\

UninstallString:
MsiExec.exe /I{00000409-78E1-11D2-B60F-006097C998E7}

So with this information we can quickly check each machine to see which
product is installed.

All you need to do is make sure there's a valid installation source for
each incarnation that exists on the clients.

If it gets too complicated, just create a brand new AIP with all latest
patches and start blasting it out overnight 50 machines at a time.

setup won't run

Posted: 03 Aug 2005 10:08 AM PDT

It can be found in the root directory of the CD.

In other words, if D:\ is your CD drive, then autorun.inf can be found in
D:\


Of course, you'll need to insert the Microsoft Office 2003 CD into your CD
drive first.

Click Start (a.k.a. the "Start Menu"), point to Programs, then Accessories,
and click on Notepad.

If you do not see Accessories or Notepad in the list, go to the bottom of
the list and click on the double arrow to show all items.

In Notepad, go to File (in the menu bar) and choose Open...

At the very top of the Open dialog box is the text "Look in:" and a
selection list.

Select your CD drive which has the Microsoft Office 2003 CD inserted from
the list (most likely "D:")

Now at the very bottom of the dialog, find where it says "Files of type:"
and choose "All Files" from the list.

Just above "Files of type:", you'll see "File name:" and a text box with the
text "*.txt" in it.

Using your mouse, highlight "*.txt" and type "*.inf" (without the quotes)
and hit the Enter key on your keyboard.

Now all you should see are some folders on the CD and 1 file named "autorun"
(or "autorun.inf"). Double-click on that file within the Open dialog box.


To open the setup file which is indicated in the autorun file, minimize all
open programs by clicking the "_" in the upper right corner of each window.
Double-click on "My Computer" and then double-click on your CD drive icon
which has the Microsoft Office 2003 CD inserted.

Be sure that you close any other open programs by clicking the "X" in the
upper right corner of each window OR by choosing Exit from the File menu
before running the setup program. This includes virus scanners too.

In addition, you will need to log in as an Administrator to run the setup
program.

Find the file and double-click on it.

After Microsoft Office 2003 is installed (and Windows restarted if needed),
remain logged in as Administrator and run each program installed to accecpt
the EULA (End User License Agreement) and activate the software (via
internet if possible).

Office Apps all Screwed Up!

Posted: 02 Aug 2005 07:21 PM PDT

Try installing Office using the Setup program,
not the MSI directly. You may want to try a
repair reinstall from the Office listing in
Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel
but that may not set all of the registry entries
correctly.

using the msi....sorry not the cd. When I run the diagnostics for my System,
it tells me that I have no Excel or Word installed. This creates a problem
because other apps that have links to Excel, Word wont work because it can;t
find it.But Excel and Word ARE installed because I use them everyday! Go

Office 2003 Volume License

I suppose that's true. I just needed the easiest way to install office
standard that was still compliant with our volume license agreement with MS.

Can I install "some" Office 2000 components onto existing Office installation

If it was me, I'd uninstall everything related to Works and Office
before installing Office 2000, otherwise you're setting yourself up for
a typical home-user mess. Note that Dell won't care if it goes wrong
though, and the only option would be the Dell restore CD which would
wipe everything and set it back to factory defaults.

Starting out?

If you're referring to the office shortcut, it doesn't use much resource,
and may assist with the usage of Office.
You don't mention your o/s, but it would help having 512mb of sys memory.

Installed 2003 Pro. OEM over Office 2000 Pro. on second computer

Posted: 01 Aug 2005 07:38 AM PDT

Hi,

Sounds like you used the wrong type of CD, but anyway, you should never
"upgrade" Microsoft Office. Always Uninstall then Re-Install.

I guess you're going to buy the retail anyway...

Vinícius, thank you; the structure you posted worked.
The odd problem I was dealing with was general XML errors
regarding formatting, etc.

I must admit, the whole CRM/XML interface has been
nothing but a nightmare. Poor documentation and limited
examples sure wastes the time of developers.

Thanks for the support!

CRM Security Service will not start

tell you why it is complaining and not starting

Multiple CRM Servers on 1 machine

Posted: 28 Jun 2004 11:50 AM PDT

One point here - Microsoft do not support an MSCRM 1.2 deployment on a named
instance of SQL. They only support it on a default installation (as per the
IG). One side effect of installing on a named instance is that it is not
possible to go offline with the SFO client as the replication extract throws
the file into an incorrect folder for MSCRM.

CRM Crystal Activity Reports

Posted: 28 Jun 2004 09:40 AM PDT

I dunno.........I dont think design is his main concern (well if he broke it
down to multiple reports that will resolve it), but rather the report he
wants is beyond the scope of the CRM-Crystal relationship.

I still think its much easier to just follow whats supported, and just write
an app..........

is anyone else converting from Siebel to CRM???

Posted: 28 Jun 2004 06:36 AM PDT

I have used scribe and it did a great job...for the most
part. How are you handling attachments from siebel?
Also, when we brought over all the activites...they are no
longer linked to anything. In CRM they are just listed
under activities, but there isn't any description of the
activity or which account or contact it belongs to. The
only thing that came over was the type of activity and who
created it.

You must not install CRM on the Top Level of you Active

Level OU with the name "MS CRM Objects" and install the
first OU named "Company Name" under this OU. But this
will work only during installation.

There was mention of a javascript hack back in the group at some point. Note
its possible to export the crm system to an xml file. You can then read
through the sql and insert javascript code. owever keep in mind any such
changes are unsupported so if your crm system falls over after you reimport
the new xml file your on your own support wise
