Microsoft Word - repeat table caption

Microsoft Word - repeat table caption

repeat table caption

Posted: 03 Feb 2014 02:40 PM PST

Does word support repeating table captions automatically on subsequent pages? I have read postings about inserting the caption in the first row of the table and then hiding it on the first page, but most of those are from 2010  or before. Was wondering if there is anything more up-to-date. BTW, it has to be compatible with 97/2003 to work for me.

 

Thanks,

Allen

File Associations

Posted: 03 Feb 2014 02:26 PM PST

 Hello,
 I need a way to re-establish file extension to program associations.
In Word, .doc and .docx do not invoke WINWORD.EXE from the Windows Explorer list of word files with either of these extensions. The error is a popup box with a big red X and the message:
 "Windows cannot find 'C:\fullpath\filename'. Make sure you typed the name correctly and try again."
If  I paste the path and name in the Word File name box and click open the file does open.
I have tried to correct the associations using the two usual methods:
1)  Settings > Control Panel > Default Programs > Associate a file type r protocol with a program
 > choose .doc or .docx > Select Word > OK
and
2) Windows Explorer > rt click a .doc or .docx file > open with > chose default program > Select Word >
Tick always use the selected program to open this kind of file > OK
Both methods fail to correct the association.
I have also tried to set the association of a trial file to works word processor then back to word. That did not work.    
Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks

I keep getting program not responding  messages in various programs. such as WORD, Excel, and AOL.   I have re-re-installed Office 2013 with MS help ,and  AOL   I updated drivers where exclamation points were showing in device drivers (including Display Adaptors -Intel HD Graphics 4000). It has been suggested to me by MS that I contact Lenovo to enable visualization; however, they charge a huge fee for software support.  I tried their website and saw some info. re using NVIGA to enable; however this icon is not showing on my tray and I don't know how to put it there.  Note sometime I get Not Responding messages that flash and hen I can use the program anyway.

Different headers on every page

Posted: 03 Feb 2014 12:42 PM PST

How do I insert different headers on every page in a 1000+ page manuscript?

It's not just even/odd headers, but different text on every page.

Word 2010

Problems:  (1) When I insert a section break at the bottom of each page, the line of text is no longer justified to the right margin.  (2) When I insert a new header on each page (yes, I am clicking Link to Previous), the preceding header changes; consequently I am inserting the headers twice for every page. 

Can someone please help?  Thanks, Patty

Email Merge: Macro recorder will not record Finish & Merge step

Posted: 03 Feb 2014 09:36 AM PST

Manually, I can 1) open my merge document, 2) open my recipient list in .csv, and 3) Finish & Merge - Send Email Messages.  However, when I record a macro for these steps, only steps 1 and 2 are recorded.  Step 3 will not record whether I use mouse actions or keyboard keystrokes.  How can I automate these three steps without having to manually program code in VBA or use an Add-In?  Thank you!

Word 2010 changing footer and header sections to keep page numbers sequential

Posted: 03 Feb 2014 09:21 AM PST

Frustrated. have a 13 page manual/document trying to complete in a hurry.  having an issue trying to keep page numbers sequential. after page 8, I have two page 9's, then remainder of page numbers are correct. I do notice clicking on the footer that the footer and header section numbers are BOTH "Section 9" in the light blue boxes just above and below the footer and header, for the two page 9's. Again the page numbers are correct again from page 11-13, but also notice that the Section number for page 11 is Section 13, pg 12 is Section 13, pg 13 is Section 14. the "link to previuos" is off for those pages.

 

Also separately, is there a way to manually put a "change bar" next to a sentence or a change made?

 

Thanks a whole lot in advance, Bob C  

Replacing single space after a colon with double space

Posted: 03 Feb 2014 08:44 AM PST

I've been trying to use expressions in Find and Replace to convert all instances of one space after a colon to two spaces. 
I've tried this in the FIND box : ([! ])   
If that's hard to read, it's colon-one space- follosed by ([! ])

In the REPLACE box:  :  \1  
That's colon-double space

But the problem is it seems to reverse the result.  So, for example ": Alabama" becomes "A:  labama"

Any suggestions?  I can't figure it out.

Efficiently Proforma Word Financial Reports

Posted: 03 Feb 2014 07:42 AM PST

Hello,

 

Hope all is well.  I work in a finance-reporting department & we spend a lot of time rolling forward financial reports which often requires massing changing of dates & moving current year numbers/balances to prior year & making placeholders for current year information.  This is not terrible complicated work, but as previously stated it can be time consuming.  I was wondering if it is possible to write a word script to pro forma reports. 

 

There will still be some judgment in this process but it would be nice to automate what we can.  Right now, I just use cntrl H to replace dates.

How to duplicate a SmartArt

Hi

I want to create a scheme with several boxes, so I want to draw the default box, and then replicate it. How do I do this with SmartArt? When I copy+paste, the only thing transported is the text in the shape, and not the shape itself.

Thanks!

Computer crashed with Microsoft Word not backed up. I was writing a book and now I can't copy my files. What do I do?

Posted: 03 Feb 2014 06:06 AM PST

My computer has crashed, I was in the middle of writing a book using Microsoft Office 2010, however I can't copy nor even find the files. It was 'not' backed up!! i thought it was automatically been done but I was wrong. Please advise. Microsoft 2010 came with my Toshiba Satellite that I bought about 21/2 years and I have no way of accessing the files to find the product key. I have a major error with my side by side configuration so it will not allow me to even open the files let alone copy them onto my external hard drive. Please help?

Headers & Auto accept corrections

Posted: 03 Feb 2014 02:17 AM PST

Problem no. 1:

In word when I try to make a new header nr. 1, 2 etc. and would like it to be numbered, I can not get word to save this setting. Further header 2 will not number following header one.

What I would like to achieve is:

1.       Header no. 1 text

2.       Header no. 1 text

2.1 Header no 2 text

2.2 Header no 2 text

2.2.1 Header no 3 text

How do I make this standard on my computer?

 

Problem no. 2:

When I want to auto-accept or reject corrections in word, I used to be able to click from one correction to another. Now everytime word goes out of the setting, and I have to reenter to the accept/reject site to accept or reject a correction. How do I get it to jump to the next correction automatically, so that I can accept/reject this and then jump to the next?

Many thanks

MICROSOFT OFFICE 2007 is not functioning

Posted: 03 Feb 2014 12:38 AM PST

Make .doc files open in Word 2003, .docx files open in word 2007

Posted: 02 Feb 2014 11:07 PM PST

I hate the ribbon of Word 2007, but I had to learn it for places that used Word 2007. I greatly prefer Office 2003 (and 2000) as my favorite version of all time (although at times I'd prefer to be using the text-based AppleWorks for the Apple II on my Apple IIGS.).
As such I have both versions installed on my computer.

Now it seems that now and then, especially but not limited to when office updates come out, it seems to reset things so that everything is opening in Office 2007 again.
How do I set it up so that .doc and .rtf files open in my favorite Word processor (Word 2003) and only the .docx files open in 2007?

Searching provides instructions for XP that don't work under Vista or 7 (I am using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit), or this, which mentions the compatibility pack. While I have that, it still doesn't stop Windows from opening files in the wrong program. Actually it screws it up and I should uninstall it so that Word 2003 can't open 2007 documents.
answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2007-office_install/how-do-i-make-word-2003-the-default-file/43358eb0-ff06-487a-8641-1a8eb7444d6e

I hate the ribbon, so please don't try to convince me I should love it or live with it, just tell me how to do what I want to do, open double-click on .doc files to open Word 2003, and double-click on .docx files to open word 2007.

Oh, hopefully the instructions will also work with Excel and PowerPoint. I almost never use Infopath, Access, or Publisher so I'm not as worried about them.


On a related note, I just tried to spell-check a file I created with notepad, and when I right-clicked on it and chose Word from  "open with", it opened Word 2007.
I then closed it, and when back, right clicked, chose "Choose default program", clicked browse, and went to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\WINWORD.EXE
and it still opened Word 2007!
I verified that the path to Word 2007 is
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\OFFICE12\WINWORD.EXE
What did I do wrong?

Write one document then have it populate/create other documents for me

Posted: 02 Feb 2014 09:44 PM PST

I work in an industry where I have to write many documents in Word. They all build off of the initial document I write. I want to write the original document, then have it automatically create the other documents for me in a different format using much of the same original information. The second and third documents are a different format but still in Word and include much of the same info from the original document.

By creating a way to write the initial document I minimize format and writing errors on the other documents.
Is there  a way to do this in Word or do I have to build it in ms access or something else? 

Any help is appreciated

Formatting commands from the Home ribbon disabled

Posted: 02 Feb 2014 06:05 PM PST

Every time I receive a file from a colleague that he probably edited in Word 2007, it opens in Compatibility mode on my Word 2010. As a result all the formatting (Font and Paragraph sub-ribbon) commands on the Home ribbon are disabled.
Even when I convert the file from the Info/Convert menu or when I save the file as a 2010 version file, the commands remain disabled.

How can I re-enable them?

Unable to sign into Word 2013 0n my computer

Posted: 02 Feb 2014 05:13 PM PST

I was using this computer until late last evening with word as my main program. Tonight when I went to begin my work, I received a message the said


"Something went wrong" we couldn't start your program. Please try again or go to the control panel and try repairing office from "programs and features"

It also had this link to Microsoft.


The repair did not work because I do not even see a word 2013 in the applications! All the other applications , excel, power point, etc are there. Since I do not have a disc what do I do?  Also where could the word program have gone?

When I double-click to hilight a selection and bold/italicize/underline it, it reformats the whole document. How do I stop this?

Posted: 02 Feb 2014 05:11 PM PST

Basically, I have a bullet that I want to italicize, so I double-click it and hit ctr+b or however I want to format my text. However, this always results in my entire document becoming italicized and every segment of text being bulleted. It is quite annoying. I can hit undo/ctr+z once to get it the way I want, but my documents are large so the entire process takes a few seconds, and doing this multiple times takes up my time and patience. Does anyone know of a way to stop this? Thank you!! 

Edit: and now I just found out the same thing happens when I try to align a text :(
 

(note: I'm using Microsoft Word 2013 and Windows 8.1)

Word 2013- Changes to keyboard shortcuts lost on restart of Word

Posted: 02 Feb 2014 04:55 PM PST

I'm trying to get back shft+ctrl+s for SaveAs, which I use constantly. (In 2013 that now calls up the style apply pane.)
I can get the reassignments to work until I close Word. When I reopen the app, all kbd shortcut changes are gone!!!
I've tried changing with only a blank document open, and the panel is set to "Save changes in: Normal.dotm"
I've first removed it from the Styles Pane, THEN added it to SaveAs...
Any Ideas?

Spacing query for Justified text

Posted: 02 Feb 2014 04:20 PM PST

Can anyone shed any light on exactly how the spacing works, or point me in the right direction as to what I am missing when formatting justified text?


I have used OCR scanning to create a document that I am in the process of correcting & formatting to look as close to the original as possible. Margins & font size have been selected to get as accurate a copy as possible, which works on most lines but not all (especially those ending with a smaller word). The only way I have found to consistently get this to work across the board is to select all the spaces on a problem line & then choose Grow/Shrink font as appropriate. The actual act of highlighting the spaces can show anomaly's in the default sizes applied, they are certainly not uniform!


Is this just some quirk in the algorithm the Word uses to increase/decrease spacing in order to justify correctly and the above just allows me to manually change? I have tried the 'Do full justification the way WordPerfect 6.x for Windows does' compatibility option but did not find it any better in this instance.


Be interested in any one else's thoughts!

Outline format issues in Word 2010

Posted: 02 Feb 2014 03:30 PM PST

I have trouble with my outline formatting when I use 1st, 2nd and 3rd level one selection. The problem is that the spacing after the bullet of 1st for the preceding word in two spaces but when you type after 2nd and 3rd the spacing is a tab and that looks like ****. Below is my actual outline. as you can see the 1st step has a two space margin between it and the "Determine the Classes" while the 2nd has a tab space to "Tally the Data" and I cannot find out where to change it. The format for outline lets you select what happens to your first, second and third levels but doesn't go into detail about a first level second entry (ie 2nd). Why do you think you know more than the customer Microsoft?
