Microsoft Word - Word 2013 Error

Word 2013 Error

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 01:59 PM PDT

I have Win 8 and Office 2013 and a new computer.

All of a sudden, some word documents will not open, bringing up this error:

There is insufficient memory or disk space. Word cannot display the requested font.

I've tried renaming normal.dot files and disabling add-in and I'm not getting anywhere.

Even my IT guy can't figure this out.

Please help!

line spacing

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 01:34 PM PDT

I am trying to print a document on to a form in Word 2010.  The line spacing even when I use the exactly feature to pick the point value, is not consistent on the form and after 4-5 lines its not lined up.

Printing Error: Custom page size 6 x 9 inches and margins: Left 2.1, Top 2.1, Right .5 and Bottom .5

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 01:28 PM PDT

I set up a document on Word 2010 to print the following: Custom page size 6 x 9 inches and margins: Left 2.1, Top 2.1, Right .5 and Bottom .5 

When I see the set up on the screen it is correct. The print preview also looks correct, but when I actually print the document the Left margin is 7/8th of an inch, the Top margin is 2 1/2 inches and the right margin is 2 inches.

I have been using this size of paper for many years on the same computer and printer without a problem and this has started happening.  Any helpful hints to fixing this?

Thanks.

Word 2007 on Windows 7 OS

 

A user reports Excel segments pasted special into Word document loses linking capacity back to Excel over night.  User is building report in Word, copying an pasting special(Microsoft Excel 2003 worksheet object).  User is using this process multiple times though a multipage report, gathering different sections of the same worksheet into the Word doc.  The original Excel file can be opened with a RC + menu choice on the pasted sections within Word during the session.  However the next day only te hfirst pasted section in teh SWord doc will open the Worksheet.  All other pasted excel sections havce lost this capability.  This has occurred for three consecutive days.

 

Does anyone have explanations or suggestions for resolvng this behavior?

Office 2013 no longer supports context menu (right-click) add to autocorrect list?

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 12:27 PM PDT

Just got a new system running Win 8 Pro with Office Pro 2013.  Among the numerous features I've relied on for years that are missing seems to be the ability to right-click on a word that Office (Outlook, Word, etc.) thinks is misspelled and add the (already existing) correct spelling to the autocorrect list.  Instead, it appears you must select File > Options > Proofing > Autocorrect... etc.

 

Can this be right?  Did Microsoft really remove this?

 

Duplicate lines

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 12:27 PM PDT

I recently purchased a new computer. I'm running Word 2013 on Windows 8.1. Sometimes Word will duplicate parts of lines as I'm typing them. For example:

The etymology is obscure. The etymology is obscureIt may derive from the verb...

Windows is up to date. I was worried that the issue arose because I was using compatibility mode to edit a document created in an older version of Office. Since then I pasted the contents of the file into a docx, but the problem still occurs. What could be the cause and what can I do to correct it?

Content Controls with building blocks

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 12:01 PM PDT

I have a huge problem I am hoping to get help with.    I have created a macro enabled template form for quoting purposes for our company and I am trying to make a content control dropdown determine the building block results of a building block content control in the same document.   In other words to explain fully I have a building block content control of which contains several building blocks that I need to somehow make it so that each building block chosen would trigger a different building block content control to display a specific building block.    so I choose one building block, and as a result a certain building block as well as that one displays somewhere else in the document.  Any ideas?

Creating a form in word 2010

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 11:24 AM PDT

I have created a form in Microsoft word and added Text & Date controls.  I protected my document as "filling in forms" where only the text & date controls are available to be input.  My issue is that once I type in a field and click TAB to go to the next, I remain in my same control field and the tab keeps enlarging the space.

How can I make the tab to move off of one field and go to the next?

My Reference tab won't let me create citations or a bibliography

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 10:22 AM PDT

I'm a student and bought the full student version of the Microsoft 2010 last year. However the reference tab will not allow me to create any citations or a bibliography. I can insert footnotes, captions and create an index but not the bits I need.  This wasn't really that big of an issue last, but I am currently writing my first big report and have nearly 70 references to put into the document! Can somebody please help?

TOC linking to section headings and not page numbers

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 10:10 AM PDT

I received a document asking if I can fix it.  The toc and list of figures are pickiing up the section heading numbers and not the form number (page field) on the footer. I have tried deleting and re-inserting a 'clean' toc field several times and it continues to pick up the section numbers, thereby:

 

3.1.1.3    This is the heading wording .....................................................3.1.1.2-4

 

I have selected Show page numbers (Right align page numbers) Tab Leader ...... Formats (From template) and checked Use hyperlinks instead of page numbers

 

Under options, I have checked "Styles" and made heading 4 (1), heading 5 (2) and heading 6 (3) because we are only showing 3 heading levels in the TOC and they are starting with heading 4, then 5 and 6 respectively.  And... the "Outline levels is deselected" though I tried with the box checked and unchecked and could not discern a difference in the output.

 

If I toggle the field codes, I can see:  {HYPERLINK \l"_TOC370890901"} but still have no idea why it is substituting the heading number for the page number.

 

This is very curious and there must be an explanation......

Inaccurate section printing with Word 2013

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 10:10 AM PDT

I am trying to print specific sections of a Word document. When I use the instructions from this KB Article (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/826218), I only really get the first section requested. Any prints after that either include other sections, the whole page, different sections or no sections.

 

I tested this with:

- 2 different computers installed with Office 2013 (Windows 7 and 8)

- 3 different printers (HP, Xerox, Konica-Minolta)

- 2 different documents (5 pages of plain text document; 10 pages of full formatted document)

- continuous breaks

- different print requests for sections throughout document

 

The first section request is consistently accurate. The following results are very unpredictable.

 

Is anyone aware of any changes to Word section printing since earlier versions? Are there any Word gurus that have experienced this and fixed/worked-around it?

Office Word Crashes with large documents

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 10:07 AM PDT

I have large word documents with lots of photo inserted.

By large I mean 35,000 to 55,000 kb.

 

Documents just lock up and all I can do is restart MS-Word.

It usually corrects the problem.

But I have to do it every 5-10 minutes as Word crashes

 

Sometimes it says I have insufficient disk space or out of memory.

Sorry but I have almost 600 Gig of free space and 10 Gig of ram.

 

I run very large AutoCAD documents and do not have a problem.

 

Templates in Word 2010

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:59 AM PDT

I need to pick someones brain....

 

I have previously worked with a template system that kept all templates central and only available by selecting a button on the toolbar.  A pop up would then enable you to select the template type on the left had side and the user on the right hand side.  The template would then open with the users details completed (i.e. name, phone number) where needed (generally as a sign off for a letter).

 

I have no idea what this template library/production system is called and have exhausted google search.

 

Can anyone please let me know what this is called and companies that provide this?

 

Thanks in advance.

It is not opening for me.

Need help saving autocorrect entries

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:53 AM PDT

I recently bought a PC that runs Windows 8.  I am currently using MS Word 2003.  My former PC (Vista) crashed and I lost all my autocorrect entries.  I have since bought a flash drive to save all work I do.  I am needing to know ASAP how to transfer all the autocorrect entries I have had to reenter to the flash drive in case I crash again as I do not want to lose all my entries again.  I do medical transcription from home for a living so this is very important to know ASAP.  Thanks!

question about printing troubleshooting

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:32 AM PDT

Good morning,

Ever since I uploaded the microsoft word 365 (Oct 6) I am having trouble printing my documents - what am I doing wrong? Am I doing it from the wrong source?

Also, if I decide to extend the software and purchase it after my free trial is up how much is it?

Thanks,

How to copy a table's column width to another table?

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:32 AM PDT

I have a document with many tables that all have the same structure (i.e. columns and column width).

But now I need to add an additional column too all of these.

 

I did that with the first table but adding an additional column of course resizes all other columns. So, after doing that I had to readjust all column widths anew so they look "pretty" (automatic column width calculation didn't yield a good result here).

 

But how do I apply this now to the remaining tables? I definitely don't want to have to massage each table individually!

Is there a possibility to add another column and re-adjusts all column width in one go?

Since that's probably asking too much: can I at least carry over the column widths from the first table to all the others?

Crashes

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:25 AM PDT

I pay monthly for 365 and so far have had FOUR MS employees access my computer to no avail on solving this issue.  I've about had it.  Tired of it crashing SEVERAL times a day without it ever being fixed.  Tired of paying for a product that does not work property and no one seems to be able to fix it.  Sometimes it recovers my work and some times it does not.

Word 2010 corrupted normal.dotm, how to fix or replace

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:18 AM PDT

My normal.dotm seems to be corrupted because throughout many documents, text is marked as Language=Italian or Language=French. This screws up my grammar checking and spelling. I tried deleting all dictionaries except English (U.S.) but problem persists.

Language info of normal.dotm styles looks like this:


and, when I scroll down, many other languages are checked:



How can either completely delete and replace normal.dotm with a "clean" copy? Or how can I clear out all of these extraneous language settings?

Thank you.

Cannot open docx in Word 2007 with embedded Excel chart

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:14 AM PDT

One of my users was sent a .docx with embedded Excel charts. When we try to open in Word 2007, get the following error:

 

The file [filename].docx cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents. Details expansion area is empty.

 

This is a collaborative legal document that is going to go back and forth between my user and the document creator. It has comments and Tracked Changes that must be preserved.

 

As I see it, we have the following options:

 

1. Ask the document creator to save it down in a format that we can read

   (unacceptable to the document creator, for some dumb, unrelated political reasons - out of my control)

 

2. Purchase 2010 for our user

   (unacceptable, we have hundreds of users with identical machines/software profiles - will not do this just to solve this issue)

 

3. Delete all of the embedded charts and save

   (unacceptable, need chart data)

 

4. Save to Wordpad, then back to docx

   (unacceptable, eliminates Tracked Changes)

 

5. Send to IT administrator who saves down as a 2003-era doc

   (user hates this workaround, but that's what we're going to do unless I can figure something else out)

 

It's clear that something in the way the Excel charts are embedded is the root of this issue. Is anyone aware of a patch or workaround of any kind that can be implemented on my user's machine without them having to send the document to someone else for modification?

 

Thanks!

Headings starting with something other than 1

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:03 AM PDT

I need to set up headings in a huge document that do not start with section or heading 1.....

 

Shauna Kelly is my bible for setting up Multi-level lists, but I need to be able to set up the headings in an unusual way.

 

Each group working on the document has a different section, so the numbering does not start at Heading 1 (1.0) as the style is, but rather may start at 1.1.1.1 (which is heading 4) or 1.1.1 (heading 3) or even 1.1.1.1.1.1 (heading 6)

 

I need to be able to start this particular section with 3.1.1.3.  What steps need to be taken to adapt the headings appropriately? As always - clarification would be most helpful.

Problem with Office 365

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:03 AM PDT

When attempting to open any Office products like Word or PowerPoint, the program says it is unable to open and suggests a fix from the control panel. When I try this, the fix gets stuck on part 2 of 4 and hasn't moved past this part in hours. What can I do to fix this? (Trying to uninstall also gets stuck on part 2 of 4).

Microsoft Office stops working upon loading up.

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 08:47 AM PDT

I recently purchaced Microsoft Office 2013 Home and Student (Word, Excel and Poperpoint) through Amazon.co.uk. My purchace consisted of a product key for one PC, and therefore rights to download and install Office. When starting up any program in the package, a message informs me that the program in question has stopped working. The only option presented is to close the program, and try again.

My laptop specs are as follows:

Processor: Intel (R) Core i5-2410M CPU @ 2.3GHz
RAM: 6GB
System type: 64 bit Operating System (Windows 7)
Graphics Driver: NVIDIA 520M

I have attempted to troubleshoot the issue. According to a discussion on the related topic, an add-in may be the source of the problem. The solution was to restart the PC in safe mode and access the add-in from there. I have tried that, and Microsoft word didn't open up when activated. Another solution was to start the laptop in clean boot mode. I followed the instructions to do this, however the issue still exists on the same level.

The person who proposed the latter of these two solutions was a Microsoft employee who reccommended presenting an event log if the issues persist. I followed the instructions on this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/What-information-appears-in-event-logs-Event-Viewer

I think this was the issue as quoted in what I assume is the correct event:
"Microsoft Word
Word is running into problems with the 'c:\program files (x86)\common files\abbyy\finereadersprint\9.00\integration\finereaderlite.word.tmpl.dot' add-in. If this keeps happening, disable this add-in and check for available updates. Do you want to disable it now?
P1: 700160
P2: 15.0.4535.1507
P3:
P4:"

Can you advise me further on this problem? If this add in is the issue, then the only way I know how disable it is via starting the program sucsessfully. As you may have assumed, I am not particularly computer literate.

Thank you in advance.
Mike

Office Home & Student 2010

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 08:42 AM PDT

I have installed and activated this program (several times in fact) but always have the same problem.  I can only open documents in My Documents by opening Word 2010 and usingOpen. On the other hand when I double click on a document opened as a .wps (using Microsoft Word Processor) it correctly automatically opens the document using Microsoft Word. Documents that are file type DOC or DOCX do not have Microsoft Word as an option when I right click on Open with.  When I browse to Program Files, Microsoft Office, Office 14 and Winword and choose Winword Open nothing happens.

I have followed several similar questions and have tried many of the very helpful suggestions but nothing works.  I have uninstalled all other works, and word programs and used Microsoft Fix it to uninstal the stubborn ones. I downloaded my Office 2010 from Microsoft.com.  My computer runs on Vista hp and I have tried running as administrator. I have tried run with winword and the complete path and although Office opens and configures again the same situation remains.  I have no winword or word option for docx files.

What is the definitive solution?

Use a custom template as the default template

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 07:14 AM PDT

Hi,

 

I understand how Word 2010 uses the Normal.dotm as the default template for a new blank document, how you can change the defaults which amends Normal.dotm and how you can create new templates for creating new documents.  However, can you use a custom template as the default template - e.g. when you start Word and it opens with a new blank document, that is based on a custom template rather than Normal.dotm?  Can you do that and how?

 

Thanks.

Limit the number of rows in a table in MS Word

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 05:54 AM PDT

Hello,

I am building a document, and I have inserted a table to help manage fields for data to be entered.  The first part of the document has a table with 4 rows for general information.  I would like to limit or lock that table to only 4 rows.  Currently, in the last cell of the last row if you hit tab or enter, it adds another row to the table, then you have to undo and manually use the mouse to click to the next data entery field.  I would like for that table to be locked at 4 rows, and if the user hits tab or enter, it takes them to the next data field, and doesn't add a row to the table.

 

Is this possible?

 

Thanks.

Print word document in Zoom size

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 05:53 AM PDT

I have MS word 2010, where on daily basis I need to take screen shot from web & paste the same in word document and also we print the document in hard copy. the problem is when we paste it in word the size of document become small. so everytime we need to change the page setting.

Lost Text in Word Documents

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 03:56 AM PDT

In recent weeks I have three times come back to Word 2007 documents I have been working on for hours to find them blank.  All documents were around 4000 words long and saved frequently.  The text simply vanished and there were no previous versions found anywhere on the computer.  Other similar documents are intact and totally fine. What is wrong?  Am I doing something?  It is causing me considerable stress as I am working to tight deadlines and twice I have had to stay up late into the night rewriting them from scratch.  

I am now also saving them on a memory stick and emailing them to myself- but I still fear that my next piece of work will also vanish, no matter how I save it.

Any advice/thoughts?  Thanks

I am afraid you are out of luck. Microsoft will not supply you with a replacement CD key since Office 2000 Premium has been taken off the scene at Microsoft as a settlement with the Sun Java system settlement. If you want to get a key you will need to see if you can purchase a Office 2000 at Ebay or at a similar place.
