How to delete a document

Posted: 06 Sep 2007 11:24 AM PDT


G'day Yetta,
you would like to delete just the "history" reference right?

Just open another document, then close it.
the reference you want to remove will drop one down the list

Repeat until the ref disappears.

There may be a way of doing this through "Tweak UI"
but I cannot recall the procedure.

How do I print name tags

Posted: 05 Sep 2007 08:02 AM PDT

Hi mlf1957,

You could use a Database Report to achieve your aims though nowadays
the database is linked-to from within a word processor document.

In Works 9 word processor, go Tools > Labels > Mailing

Also see help (F1)

Create labels from a mail merge

Creating Advanced Mail Merge Documents

Creating Basic Mail Merge Documents

Works 8.5 trouble opening Works 6 files

Posted: 05 Sep 2007 06:24 AM PDT

Problem Solved!
Knowledge Base article 933828 reports a Works pringing error for
version 8.5, and does not mention the problem regarding failing on
loading a database file. But the patch does fix that problem!
Get the patch here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933828/ .

lost email addresses

Posted: 04 Sep 2007 09:08 PM PDT

Thanks Ken. It worked. I don't think the email program was Outlook Express,
but it might have been. In either case, I found the file. When I clicked on
it, a separate utility opened up allowing me to export the addresses and
later import them into the new Outlook Express. Worked out better than I had
hoped. Thanks again!

I get a similar error when using Works 4.5 under XP with an older HP laser
jet. I just click OK and the job prints anyway. Sometimes the program closes
after, but I still get my document printed.

If you are using an HP printer, check their web site. I believe there are
other drivers that will work with the older laser jets that don't play well
with XP.

Works 8 vs Works 9

Posted: 31 Aug 2007 10:02 AM PDT

Hi Wilbur,

It depends on what use you put Works to.

Works 9.0 - new features:

Task Pane added to the RHS of the screen for the WP, DB and SS.
Included in this task pane is:

MRU list of the users documents.

Link to quickly browse documents and templates

Link to create new documents

Context sensitive 'Tip of the day' appears in the Task Pane.

Integrated Live Search in the WP, DB and SS, allowing web searches
without the need to leave the Works application. Results are displayed
in the Web browser.

Integration with Office 2007 converters which will allow the users
to open and save to:

o WP: .docx, .docm and .doc

o SS: .xlsx, xlsb and .xls

Office PowerPoint Viewer 2007

Integration with Microsoft Update

Vista Calendar integration which will allow a user to import
appointments from Vista's Calendar.

Opportunity to enrol in the Microsoft's Customer Experience
Improvement Program.

The calendar now supports up to 32 Calendars; Works 8, had 4
calendars.

From the Works Hitlist we see :

Proofing tools - the English version supports Spanish, French and
German.

WP retains number formatting during mail merge

WP mail-merges directly from XLR files (formatting not retained).

Calendar has customisable font size - when a user prints the month
view of the calendar, they can choose between 3 different font sizes:
small, medium and large).

Does WORKS 8.5 conflict with OFFICE 2002?

Posted: 30 Aug 2007 03:49 AM PDT

Many thanks Rich/Rerat for your comments - they were much appreciated.
I have now purchased WORKS 8.5 and (you guessed it!) it failed to install so
here's hoping I can achieve somethng by changing the keys you suggest.
Thanks again,

Microsoft Works files missing or corrupted

Posted: 26 Aug 2007 11:43 PM PDT

Hi Kevin,

Thank you. I read the procedures and to be honest, I'm a bit aprehensive,
since it does require *more than basic experience* to manipulate all those
files.
The OEM will not provide Microsoft Works either & to buy it from other
sources it's an alternative, yet I will look at other Works Suite
program(s).
Best regards,
Ed

URL for upgrade to MSWorks 9?

Ohadi Langis,
You will need to contact Compaq, or the store that you bought the computer
from, and see if the offer a free, or discounted upgrade.

Thank you for the URL, but that is for the full retail package. I should
clarify my assumption is that if you buy a product within say 30 days of the
release of the new version, which is my case, that the vendor will offer you
either a free upgrade or a discount. That's my inquiry. Thanks in advance
for any pointers.

Print a Microsoft works spread sheet on to one page

Posted: 20 Aug 2007 02:22 PM PDT

and you can use the printer's "print to fit" if the scale doesn't make it too
small.

Read some of the posts here about Works 9.0. I seem to remember that it was
mentioned that it can save documents in .doc format.

In Vista I believe it is in c:\users\your user name\appdata\roaming\template
which is also a hidden folder and you need to follow the same folder option
to view hidden folders.
