Microsoft Word - Format Error - headers inserting into the document automatically in the wrong places

Microsoft Word - Format Error - headers inserting into the document automatically in the wrong places

Format Error - headers inserting into the document automatically in the wrong places

Posted: 28 Feb 2014 03:17 PM PST

Hi

I have a word document that I edit in both word 2007 and word 2010 and somehow Word adds additional headers (which you can see in the outline view) to the document without user consent. That is header in the wrong place.

This is only happening to one of my documents and thought it was a word virus. Are there any tricks to get rid of this.

Thanks

Page up/down buttons on vertical scrollbar - gone in Office 365??

Posted: 28 Feb 2014 02:15 PM PST

Hi, we used to be able to page up and down from the side scrollbar.  With the new Office package, there doesn't seem to be any option any more.  I always found it useful as I work in long documents.  Is there a way to recover these?

thanks

Label error word 2013

Posted: 28 Feb 2014 01:25 PM PST

Hello,

Recently I have ran into this problem with Word 2013. When clicking the label button at the top it pauses and kicks out the error

"There is a problem with the label information you are trying to use.  You may be able to correct the problem by repairing office or reinstalling the label information"

This is happening on a HP elitepad 900 running windows 8. All windows updates have been installed with the exception of 8.1.

I have tried the pagefile fix that works for 2010.

I have repaired it (several times)

I have uninstalled it, ran the uninstall tool and rebooted it in between each step.

I made sure it is running service pack one

Additionally, the install is from the click to run, I don't know if that matters or not. I have done some searching and all the fixes I have found so far apply to 2010 and older.

I have spent a lot of hours on this one, and well it's driving me nuts. lol

Thanks in advance,

Justin G.

English-Hebrew PDF reflow bugs

Posted: 28 Feb 2014 12:38 PM PST

I discovered a PDF reflow bug. I converted a PDF that has English and Hebrew on it to a Word document with the office 2013 PDF reflow feature. But there's still some bugs in it. I'll show you what the PDF and the PDF I converted into a Word document looks like in the following screenshot:

Can I restrict editing to filling in forms, but still allow a macro to be run?

Posted: 28 Feb 2014 10:51 AM PST

I have several .dot templates from Word 2003 that contain a macro that the user may optionally run. The purpose of the macro is to prompt the user for some information, which invokes a database lookup, which then populates certain fields on the form. It is imperative that users are restricted to filling in form fields only; however, I noticed in Word 2010 when I create a document from this template, the Alt-F8 keyboard shortcut to invoke the macros dialog is unresponsive unless I unprotect the document. Also -- I tried to Save As the .dot to a .dotm to see if that helped, but it did not.

Can I not have it both ways in Word 2010 -- that is, limit to filling in fields, but allowing the macro to run?

Note this functionality worked in Word 2003 (and I believe even in Word 2007).

World 2010 crashes after installing grid32.ocx

Posted: 28 Feb 2014 08:20 AM PST

I have an old program that requires grid32.ocx to work at all. Now I have a fairly regular problem with Word crashing. Here are the steps I take that crash Word.

Open MS Word 2010

Open other program that requires grid32.ocx

In Word, highlight a line, copy with ctrl + c.

When I do this Word crashes, and restarts nicely, and my other program remains unaffected. This happens about once a day. What can I do to stop this crash? Is there a fix for windows, or word to prevent this? Or is there a way to register grid32.ocx for just one program?

I'm running Vista x64 up to date. And Office 2010.

Hi.

Is there anyone who is able to help me recover this file?

This is the error message when I try to open it:

"The name in the end tag of the element must match the element type in the start tag

Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line: 2, Column: 28767952"

It is a 60+ page document I need to be studying for my exam (urgently).

I have no idea what to do about and would really appreciate any help I can get.

Thanks.

Fixing Microsoft Office Starter 2010 English

Posted: 28 Feb 2014 07:05 AM PST

Someone sent me a word document that would not open.  I went into programs and did a repair of Microsoft Office 2010 Starter English, and the document opened.  I did not check the box in the repair window.  This morning I attempted to open a document I needed from my files and a box popped up telling me that Microsoft Office 2010 Starter was installed on my computer but did I want to now purchase Office 2010. Clicked out of that.  Did another repair on the starter but document still would not open.  Then I noticed that Office starter had disappeared from my programs list at the start up menu.  So I went into the control panel and saw that it said Microsoft Office 2010 which I thought was the full program which I do not have, so I uninstalled that thinking that it might be somehow interfering with the starter program.  I then Googled info for a way to uninstall and reinstall the starter program and found a note that said "Do not uninstalll Microsoft Office 2010 which is also Office Manager and is apparently needed to uninstall and reinstall the starter program. Now when I try to open documents sometimes PSE (Picasa) pops up but of course they won't open with that.  I also get a message that Windows can't open the file and which program do I want to use to open it.

If I go back to the control panel and into programs for a repair to the starter program, I get a message that says Click-2-Run configuration failure.  If I highlight Click-2-run there is no option to repair it, only to uninstall.  I also get a message that Click-2-Run is updating in the background and an option to pause it which I did not do.

In summary:  I uninstalled Microsoft Office 2010 and apparently need it back.  Office Starter will not work and even though it's listed in programs in the control panel, it is no longer listed in the programs at the start up menu. 

I went into help and looked at recovery options but was not sure which one to choose so I decided to come here for help first.  I hope you can help me out.

Custom ribbon disappears

Posted: 28 Feb 2014 06:46 AM PST

I am using Word 2010 on Windows 7.  I have created a custom tab for the Ribbon so I have my frequently used commands in one place.  Periodically, however, this tab will disappear.  Fortunately, I have saved my custom settings and am able to import the customization file so I do not have to recreate the tab on the Ribbon, but I would like to know if anyone may have an answer as to why this happens.

Thanks.

Creating a Word document from multiple Word or text files (Word 2010)

Posted: 28 Feb 2014 04:13 AM PST

Hi,

Where I work people need to create agreements and contracts. These don't tend to change a great deal, so invariably they will go back to old agreements and contracts and copy and paste clauses into new agreements and contracts.

We can create a slightly more elegant solution by using quick parts and autotext, but that's not much good when dealing with a large library of pre-determined text, many of which may only consist of a few lines. They can also only insert autotext or quick parts one at a time.

People can also use the Insert - Object - Text From File option, which also means they can search for clauses (great!). It also means they can select multiple files by pressing Ctrl or Shift to block select text, but I can't seem to choose which order the text gets inserted. If we can choose the order it would be a big help.

Of course there may be other funky ways of achieving the same thing. In essence the requirement is:

- Select multiple Word or text files

- Insert them in the order the user wants

Maybe there's a Word add-in or third party product that enables this?

WORD TABLE HYPERLINK C0RRUPTING ON UPDATING

Posted: 28 Feb 2014 03:23 AM PST

Sequence

  1. Created a cross reference to a table in Word
  2. Deleated the previous table to the cross referenced one
  3. Updated documented using 'F9'
  4. Issue: Hyperlink dreated in step 1 replaced with the actual Table!!!!
  5. Replaced table by ee inserting the cross reference to the table, All OK again

This happened on a 200 page + document requiring over 60 re-insertions.

Surely this is a code bug.

Thanks Tom

Can't create PDF

Posted: 28 Feb 2014 01:01 AM PST

Can't create PDF       
                Can't create PDF      

I am trying to convert a document to a PDF, using Vista SP2 and Word 2007. I can't find any way to do this by printing or exporting, so it has to be save as. When I try this, I get aessage saying

This file is in use by another application or user

Help explains that there may be a read lock on it. I am the only user and no other application was open.

I opened the file properties box and found it had been blocked. I pressed the Unblock button and tried again - same result. I also tried saving under a different name and copying the material into a new Word document, but got the same result on both occasions. I also tried to make a PDF from other Word documents, and the same occurred there.

I also have a laptop, and I find that will convert the same documents to PDF with great ease.

Headings for Table of Contents in Word 2013

Posted: 27 Feb 2014 08:30 PM PST

I need for format a document according to American Psychology Association 6th ed. guidelines which stipulate specific formatting for headings and the following paragraph text, which I am finding are not compatible with Word! Below is a sample of the requirements:

1 Level 1 Heading

Maecenas porttitor congue massa. Fusce posuere, magna sed pulvinar ultricies, purus lectus malesuada libero, sit amet commodo magna eros quis urna. Nunc viverra imperdiet enim.

1.1 Level 2 Heading

Fusce est. Vivamus a tellus. Pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames acturpis egestas.Maecenas porttitor congue massa. Fusce posuere, magna sed pulvinar ultricies, purus lectus malesuada libero, sit amet commodo magna eros quis urna. Nunc viverra imperdiet enim.

1.1.1 Level 3 Heading. Maecenas porttitor congue massa. Fusce posuere, magna sed pulvinar ultricies, purus lectus malesuada libero, sit amet commodo magna eros quis urna. Nunc viverra imperdiet enim.

The Levels 1 & 2 Headings work fine for a Table of Contents; however, the Level 3 heading brought in all the text underneath it as well! I reformatted the text to the text Style of the document, and that worked for the TOC, but it takes on the bold format from the heading, and the only way I can see to do is it to 'unbold' it manually, which is going to take me quite a lot of time.

Any suggestions would be very welcome.

Thank you.

Printing - Booklet Finishing page grayed out

Posted: 27 Feb 2014 08:00 PM PST

I am trying to print a folded booklet with staples in the middle (ie: where the fold is).

When I go "FILE" - "PRINT" - "PRINTER PROPERTIES" - "SELECT FINISHING - BOOKLET CREATION" the "BOOKLET FINISHING - Booklet fold and staple" option is grayed out and will not let me select it.

My printer does allow me to print documents with staples at the top, bottom etc.

I believe I have followed all the instructions required to create a booklet.

I have set the MARGINS section, with 'Multiple pages: Book fold" and "Sheets per booklet: All".

I have selected LANDSCAPE.

Any suggestions? Thanks Aveda.

Complex Mail Merge, bring in a differing number of fully formatted pages into a master document based on a flag inthe datasource.

Posted: 27 Feb 2014 07:40 PM PST

Hi 

First post here so hopefully I give you enough of an explanation.  

CURRENT SITUATION

I am in the process of trying to automate a manual end of year performance report to our customers.  The mail merge letter contains upto 5 seperate sections. (Covering letter, and then 4 seperate detail sections).  Each of the sections can be upto 3 pages and consists of formatted text and tables that are populated from the main datasource.  Depending on the flags in the main datasource a recipient can recieve any combination of the 5 sections.  The main datasource is populated from a single excel table.   In the past I have created upto 7 seperate Mail Merge templates, each with the appropriate combination of sections, and then run the different mailmerges.  When these are then "merged" and printed I use a macro to send each dcoument to the printer sperately so that I can get them stapled and colour inserts added.   

PROCESS ISSUE I AM TRYING TO RESOLVE

It becomes problematic when we make changes to wording and layouts and I need to update the same thing on upto 7 diferent documents.    In an ideal world this would be simple as I would create a master document and then when the layout is finalised, do my File Save As, and delete the irrelevant sections and filter the data source accordingly.  But history tells me we will always be making last minute changes.   We also have a number of customers that have a Parent Child relationship with accounts and we only want to send them the covering letter once, but they still need to see all of the individual deatiled sections for the "child" accounts

MY PROPOSED SOLUTION

This year I was thinking there had to be a bettwer way.  I have been researching this and thought I had found the solution using IF and IncludeText mergefields.    My problem is that I seem to lose the formatting, and page breaking in the new merged document.   Below is the code I am using for bring in  a particular section. a particular section.

{IF MERGEFIELD  Annual_Summary_NW_PS \*MERGEFORMAT} ="y" " {INCLUDETEXT  "V:\\Murray\\Feb2014_Eoy\\2014 Mail Merge Data\\1_CEO_Summary.docx" \* MERGEFORMAT} ""}

I also tried to use a Master Document view with Outlining, but could not find how to turn on or off the approriate sections.

MY QUESTIONS

  • My question is basically is there a better way........
  • Am I on the right track
  • My only thought was that I maybe bringing in too much of a document, and should I break it into smaller chunks. 
  • How do I handle the parent child realtionship, or does it soley rely on the flagging and sorting in the datasource
  • Do I have to resort to VBA to cycle through the datasource and create the merged documents on the fly instead of using the Mailmerge Functionailty.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or comments on this approach

Kind regards

Change printer number of copies setting

Posted: 27 Feb 2014 06:28 PM PST

I know that one can use code like:

    With oApp.Dialogs(wdDialogFilePrint)
        .NumCopies = lQty
        .Display
    End With

but it brings up a dialog, which I do not want and removing the .Display breaks the code.

Is there a way, using VBA, to set up the no of copies without poping up a dialog to the user.  I simply want to set the default value, but they will decide when to open the print dialog since they first need to review the document in question.

Create a linked table of contents for documents in a zip file?

Posted: 27 Feb 2014 06:25 PM PST

This may not be possible but I wondered if anyone would have ideas. I am creating an encrypted zip file with multiple documents. There are several Word documents, several PDFs, and a few Excel documents. Is there any way to create a master document that would hyperlink to the other documents even when the file is unzipped? I am needing a way for a user to view a single document which gives a brief description of the other documents and provides a hyperlink that will open the applicable document. Can anyone provide any guidance? Thanks. (Side note: I looked for a more generic spot to post than one specific to Word but this was the closest I found. I will be glad to move this to a better spot if directed.)

Print to pdf from word mail merge document

Posted: 27 Feb 2014 02:31 PM PST

Following the mail merge of a word and excel document, I typically print to pdf to avoid the step of creating individual word documents, but now the it's stacking all the letters from the merge fields on top of one another and saving as such in the pdf. The body of the document is normal, but all the merge fields stack. When I close out and reopen the original word document, it too shows the fields stacked. What's going on?

If you need to post to multiple groups, it's best to *crosspost* instead, by
posting a single message to a handful of relevant groups (separate the group
names with commas) so that everyone can follow the thread.

This will also be a lot easier if you stop using the web interface to the

in order to add these non-AD External Address to your GAL, the best way
which based on Best Practices is to add them as contacts under one OU , lets
say External Email OU under Active Directory and then create an Address Book
View under All Address List from Exchange System Manager Console.

you can find more information under microsoft site on how to create address
book views under Exchange System Manager, i advice you to download the
Deployment and Administration Guide of Exchange Server 2003 and have a look
on them, the will help you alot.

i hope i answered your question and i could provide a useful information to

Can't detect a new Scsi Travan tape drive

Posted: 07 Dec 2005 06:26 PM PST

Could someone help with a quick question, I just installed a new
Adaptec Scsi card and a new Seagate Scsi Travan TapeStor 20 GB tape
drive. I was wondering if there is something special that I need to do
to get Centos Linux to detect the drive. The tape drive is set to scsi
4 and the card is set to it's default. All I did was install the card
and drive and install a scsi cable from one to the other. The drive
has power and reacts when a tape is added, just can't acces it yet!

My /var/log/dmesg file states the following

scsi0 : sata_via
ata2: no device found (phy stat 00000000)
scsi1 : sata_via

Does the scsi0 and scsi1 stuff mean that linux detected the drive. I
don't have any /dev/st* files in my /dev directory and I can't access
the drive.

Would anyone have any suggestions?


Thanks

Dave.

The grub instructions /* were */ accurate for a generic grub install.
Redhat/Fedora move things around to wherever they want in their
filesystem. They also have the habit of introducing extra confusion with
things like grub.conf instead of menu.lst. Also, I hate their use of disc
"labels" in /etc/fstab. Some things should be left in *nix form.
Thanks for the nice reminder of why life's easier if you're a /* slacker. */

For Fedora/Redhat, add an extra last step before burning the CD: duplicate
grub's configuration file to grub.conf.

# cd /iso/boot/grub
# cp menu.lst grub.conf

How can I open a .pub file under Linux ?

Bernard,

This is the filetype of Microsoft Publisher, an application that most
people receiving this file will not have. Stunning stupidity on the part
of the sender. I know of no other application including legitimate
professional desktop publishing programs that will open this.

Contact the sender and request the information be sent in a standard file
format. This is at least politically important and I'll leave it up to
you exactly how you word it. However, just to get it off my chest let
me say that I'd go on a little and say something like:

The document you have sent is not in any standard file format. It cannot
be read by any application other than the particular one you created it in
and many people do not have that program. Please resend as a standard
Postscript (.ps) or Acrobat (.pdf) file. Doing so would ensure that
anyone receiving it could read its contents.

ISA PNP broken in 2.6?

I ran mine with 2.2, 2.4 and 2.6 kernels, from Mandrake 6.0 to SuSE 9.1.
Linux never had problems with it. I only changed it in the end, because my
son wanted to run Win2K with sound, on the same machine, and it wouldn't
work with the ISA card. He paid for an Ensoniq PCI card, that worked with
both OSs. The card's still good, and usable, I just don't have any ISA
slots to put it in anymore.
 

It is not PnP. That is why the IRQ has to be reserved as "Legacy ISA". If
it isn't, than any PnP device that wants the same IRQ gets it, leaving the
non PnP non-working.

runlevel 5 but no xfce

Heh, pardon, that was a typo, should've been "Windows" or, more
specifically, "win2k."

I got XFCE working, but not by the preferred method. First, I made the
faulty assumption that "yum groupinstall XFCE" would install everything
required to run XFCE, which isn't the case. First, "yum groupinstall
'X Window System'" must be run. This was the source of my original
confusion, which explains why "startx" wasn't doing anything, there not
being an X to start.

When I tried to install X, however, I kept getting an error about
encryption. As the error message was long and I didn't want to write
it down and couldn't work out how to mount a floppy it seemed more
expediant to re-install, selecting "X Window System" from anaconda (nor
could I figure out how attach a file to an e-mail).

What I wanted to do was to do a "minimal" Fedora install and then
select a few things with yum. I suppose at the end of the day it works
out, but not in the way I wanted it to.


thanks for the help,

If that is the case make sure your AV software is up to date,
Set a network scanner or sniffer somewhere and sniff the network to see which
Work station is causing the problem,
Ethereal is free, Nmap is free, or get some nice graphical user sniffer to
Determine what kind of packets are traveling and which work station is the
naughty one.

You may be getting the 200 status if the server has FBA enabled, and

How do you keep from being black listed?

I would guess that you are being reported by the recipients of your e-mail.
Make sure that there are removal instructions that are VERY clear in the
text of your messages (preferably at the top of the message). Having your
own email server will not help because someone will just blacklist your
domain.

We have tried that and we still cannot remove it. Did some more research and
we have decised that we are going to use ADSI edit to remove the entries.

Journaling Public Folders

Posted: 30 Mar 2006 06:00 AM PST

Hi,
Thanks for your suggestion. EMC's EX is only archiving mail from mailboxes
I specify. All journaling is being handled by the exchange servers as
defined in the Mailbox Store's General tab. Unfortunately the option to
"Archive all messages sent or received by mailboxes on this store" is not
available for public folder store containers. Checking smtp protocol options
hasn't yielded anything encouraging either. As Exchange is responsible for
all mail traffic, I am hopeful that there is some facility for journaling
pf's within the standard framework of exchange. I'd rather not have to code
this. Thanks again.

Can you help me to get these [fake from] subject out of my exchange
enviroment.

thank you for all the comments

IIS General Question

Posted: 30 Mar 2006 01:56 AM PST

The reason for posting in this group, was that this is where I found the
solution to my owa IIS problem. I was hoping that the people with the
expertise to solve the initial problem might also be able to shed some light
on the others.
I was asked to install PHP and Mysql on the server by a developer. After
doing research it appeared that it was possible to run these two parallel
with IIS.
With hindsight, I will now use Apache to run php and Mysql, but all I would
like to do is get the server back to the way it was before the blunder.

thanks

Exchange 2003 SP2 event 7518 Sender ID must be configured

Posted: 28 Mar 2006 01:05 PM PST

7518 means that the IMF updates are not working. Check to see if the
IMF updates are being updated every time Windows Update finds a new
one. IMF would still work in such a scenario. But the future updates
wouldn't get detected.

you can use the above mentioned KB as a guideline as to how to deal
with this.

OK. It's working do I need to add ip perimenter for each Canon printer

pages and then send it automatically by email in an attachment of pdf). And
also do I need to add virtual smtp for the ip of each canon printer we have.
