I want to create custom icons for my macros

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 02:15 PM PST

I have created 7 macros that I would like to create custom "buttons" for on the QAT.

I have ready Greg Maxey's posts several times and they do not really address my issue.

How do I create a custom button and associate that with a Macro?

I have png files of the icons I want to use.

When I try to use the Custom UI Editor, after I have opened the file,  I don't see any scripts to associate the image with.

Thanks for your help.

How do I keep copied material from reverting to Cambria?

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 12:51 PM PST

Why is it that when I copy from a source that is in Times New Roman into a document that is also in Times New Roman, and click on "keep source formatting" it ends up in Cambria anyway?  I do not want Cambria anywhere in my documents - how can I get rid of it so I don't have to keep reformatting everything I copy? 

"This modification is not allowed because the section is locked."

Hi. I am currently using Office 365 Home Premium. (I pay monthly for it.) I don't know why or how, but now every time I try to access my Microsoft word or excel documents, the words "This modification is not allowed because the section is locked." pops up at the bottom of my screen. Also, I'm asked to accept the Microsoft Office License Agreement. I have checked my subscription, which hasn't ran out. If anyone could help, that'd be great. 

Merge Fields

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 12:25 PM PST

I am working in word 2010 and I am having trouble with mail merge.  My data source has a field called "ltr_date" and I want to run a mail merge that says if ltr_date is (current date) then add three days and print that date (three days from the current date.

Also I need help with using the rules, I have a situation that goes as follows:

I have several funds that I want to print in a letter with the amount that is associated with that fund, now each person could have one fund or up to 4 funds I want only the funds for that person listed on the letter and then i want it to move on to the next person and list all funds for that person.

Example of what I need for further clarification.

If fund is not blank then enter amount

if fund is blank go to next person or next record

I know I need to use the next record or next record if option but not sure how to set this up can any one advise me on this.

Office 2013 AD RMS

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 11:41 AM PST

Hello,

I am evaluating ADRMS on Windows Server 2012 x64 with Office 2013 installed on Windows 8.1 x64. 

Initially, I tried with the Office 2013 eval version and was able to protect document using RMS. On switching to our vol licensed version of Office 2013, On trying Info->Protect Document it shows a menu item "Connect to DRM servers to get templates". But on clicking that it just shows an error "Sorry something went wrong opening IRM protected content. The system cannot find the file specified"


Windows server 2012 has AD DS & ADRMS installed. RMS uses internal DB. I tried with both https & http URL for licensing. I suspect either I have missed some steps/registry I used with the eval version or there is some difference/settings needed with the vol licensed binary

Is there a document that details the set of steps to implement/configure RMS (on win server 2012) to use with Office 2013 on x64 please? Similarily, Is there a document to configure Office 2013, preferably vol licensed version, to use the RMS?

I would also need to write applications using RMS SDK 2.1 to protect document that would be accessed using Office 2013.  Will setting up the SDK need any special care with the Office 2013 installed on the same machine?

Thanks

Opening Word attachments in O365 Outlook - text disappears

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 10:15 AM PST

Using O365 PRO (that option wasn't available in the drop down menu).

Recently, a problem has started for me where email attachments look fine in preview and when I open in protected view, but the second I hit enable editing, the text completely "disappears".  It's there somewhere because if I click "Select All", "copy", open a blank document and hit "Paste", it magically appears.  What's up with that?!!

It's a nusance generally but absolutely unworkable when in revision marks b/c the revisions and comments do NOT follow the copy/paste fix.

HELP!

Word Templete auto insert rows based on form field

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 08:23 AM PST

I would like to make a template that would auto insert rows based on a number in another field in the document - for example:

The employee performed [insert a number here] tests (tests #__ through #__).

And in another section it would automatically make the number of rows and number them in a table:

Test Number Type of Test

So, if I entered in [5] in the number of tests then the table would automatically look like this

Test Number Type of Test
1
2
3
4
5

Can't retain window size when switching between documents

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 08:18 AM PST

In previous versions of Word, it was possible to reduce the size of a document window in order to switch quickly between open documents or see portions of two or more at the same time. In Word 2010 moving the mouse anywhere near a reduced-sized window immediately restores it to its original size. I've experimented with the Options window but haven't found the key to making this behavior stop. Any suggestions will be gratefully accepted.

Microsoft Word / Excel Merge - Willing to pay for answer.

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 03:15 AM PST

Hello I have a number of rows in excel which I would like to merge to a document.

The rows contain different types of language exercises which must be merged to a text file then imported into a flash card program.

The issue is that each row has an exercise type. This determines what template this row must be merged with. There are many different exercise types. So there will be many different template types. The row contains cells numberd 1,2,3,4,5 etc. This field contain the data that I must insert into the template.

The end result should be one document that is in the same order as the excel spread sheet.

Here is a example of the end product :

-----------

C : Acme
FT : Audio Guess The Word From The Definition

The highest point, as of achievement or development.
AcmeTheHighestPoint.mp3
Acme
Acme.mp3


FT : Audio Guess The Word From The Synonyms
SAIINM : F

Zenith, summit, highest point;
AcmeSynonyms.mp3
Acme
Acme.mp3


FT : Picture Name The Common Concept
SAIINM : F

Acme
Acme.mp3
Green Peak.jpg
Rock Snowey Peak.jpg
Rocky High Point.jpg


FT : Type What You Hear
SAIINM : F

Acme.mp3

FT : Audio Replace Word With A Synonym

AcmeReplaceQuestion1.mp3
When he was at the acme of his career, a scandal brought about his downfall.

FT : determines the template to use.

I am not sure if this is possible to do? Would be willing to give some money to someone who can solve quickly. Thanks

that uses intonation on words.

citations greyed out in a certain document section only

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 12:39 AM PST

Hello everyone.

I have a problem with a particular section of one of my documents.

as title says, in this particular section/chapter the citations are greyed out.

in the remaining documents and in an eventual new one it all works fine.

i actually solved this issue by deleting the whole section, creating a new one and copy-pasting the content from a previous version, and deleting every source already existing in the master list, but i would like to know what could be the cause of this. I have the feel that this could happen again but i can't keep recovering previous versions again and again.

i've read several topic stating that the only solution fro greyed out citation is to uninstall and re-install office, but in such cases the citations were greyed out in every document opened, even a new one.. to me it only applies to this particular document section..

maybe there is a key combination for locking or disabling this function that i could've pressed unintentionally?

also, the document in this case is a complete version of my thesis, made out of copy paste of several single files.. this have caused also several double citations i was manually replacing.. could this have messed out my citation list somehow?

thanks in advance

Count active document file number in folder

Posted: 23 Feb 2014 07:00 PM PST

Hi,

I have a macro that cycles through documents in a folder and prints them to file as a .prn. It works briliantly. However, it has to sort through over 900 files to do so. To speed the process, I added in a code to hide the Word application and just run it behind. This reduces the time the pc has to draw each document on screen as it is opened. This in turns removes the ablity for the user to see the progress of the conversion.

I have found a way to make a progress bar to appear on screen as it cycles through the files. However, I can't find how to determine the number of the file in folder that is open. I found a metkhod to print the number of files in a folder here on one of the forums:

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2007-excel/how-to-find-number-of-files-in-a-folder-via-vba/87c650de-c0b3-46b0-b7d2-284e0b3b328f

I wanted to have a message on screen:

Converting file "active document number" out of "number of files in folder"

Does anyone know how to find the active document number or can suggests another way to show the progress?

I appreciate all your suggestions.

How do I turn off keytips/alt functions/ the ribbon in word?

Posted: 23 Feb 2014 04:22 PM PST

When I hit "alt" the keytips come up. They never used to do this and it's very annoying because now I can't use all the shortcuts I had set using the "alt" button. Can someone please help me turn this off? I have been googling how for hours. I have closed and reopened Word and restarted my computer and everything.
