Dialogue box is open error word 2013

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 03:18 PM PDT

When I open any Microsoft Word document, I get a dialogue box that reads: "Word can't do this because a dialogue box is open. Please close the dialogue box to continue." The problem is that there is only one dialogue box, the one that tells me to close the dialogue box. When I close the box the document loads normally. It isn't so much a problem as it is annoying. If anyone knows how to stop this box from popping up and pausing the loading of documents I would appreciate it.

Cannot insert jpeg picture. Message: picture created in Package.

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 02:30 PM PDT

Running Windows 8.1.  Suddenly Word won't accept jpegs, apparently created by "Package," that older versions accepted.  Do I add this app called Package?  How do I do that?  What picture formats will the new Word accept? 

Also, in this new system I have no idea how to find out what version was installed for me, so when I select "Office Products"  I have no idea what I am doing.

Cannot save .doc as .docm

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 12:37 PM PDT

I have a Word document that was created in Word 2003 (or possibly Word 97).  It contains a VBA macro.  If I try to save it as a macro-enabled word document (.docm), I am unable.

After selecting Save As / Word Document, the Save As dialog box opens; I change the type to .docm; select Save, and an error message pops up:

Of course, I cannot save it as .docx since it contains a VBA project:

It seems to work properly as an Excel 97-2003 .doc document, but I'd like to figure out why I cannot save it in the .docm format.

Blank spaces below text in table cells

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 11:04 AM PDT

After creating a table and filling a row of cells with information of varied length, I am often left with large empty spaces in cells below some shorter texts. This "wasted" space resists deletion.

My general impression is that Word lets me go to the cell with the most data in it, place cursor at end of it, and press delete.

Nothing I do erases the empty space between the end of the text and the bottom line of the cell.

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 10:38 AM PDT

My dictionary apps no longer work. When I click "Insert" "My Apps" and click on Bing Dictionary it tries to load but I come up with, "App Error" and a button to restart but nothing happens. It used to work fine. I have uninstalled WORD and reinstalled it but that didn't help. I'm online but it just won't load the App.

Delete Hyperlink from Picture if One

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 09:25 AM PDT

Hi,

I have a Macro in Word that Pastes an Image from the Clipboard, then Resizes it.

I would also like it to check if the Picture has a Hyperlink, and if it does then Delete the Hyperlink else just exit Macro.

I have a bit of code that I found Online that removes all Hyperlinks on Pictures {See BOLD}, but I need to change this so it only checks the Picture I have Selected.

Here's my Macro:

Sub InsertCoverPicture()
    'Insert the Cover Picture
    With Selection
        .PasteAndFormat (wdPasteDefault)
        .MoveRight Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
        .MoveLeft Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend
        With .InlineShapes(1)
            .LockAspectRatio = msoTrue
            .Height = CentimetersToPoints(2)
        End With
    End With

    'Remove Hyperlink from Picture
    Dim oStory As Range
    Dim x As Long

    For Each oStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges
        With oStory
            For x = .Hyperlinks.Count To 1 Step -1
                If .Hyperlinks(x).Type = msoHyperlinkShape Then .Hyperlinks(x).Delete
            Next
        End With
    Next
End Sub

Thank you in advance,

Neil

Office for iPad - Word not having access privileges

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 08:28 AM PDT

Office for iPad - Word (but not Excel and Powerpoint) not having access privileges.

Error message: "Word cannot open the deocument: user does not have access privileges"

This message is completely inconsistent: about half of my Word files, WRITTEN BY MYSELF with Office 365 Home Premium, open without messaging anything.

Those which do NOT open (also written by myself), demand first logging in to Microsoft account EVERY time I try to load them, but EVERY time they show this error message, denying access.

I do not see any dependency with time and the contents of those simple Word files.

I have not seen this error message in any other Word version in any other device. It pops up only in Word for iPad (iOS 7.1).

Please, forum moderators, care to tell me again that you do not have a slightest clue about this?

Word 2007 doesn't load new documents using the normal.dot or normal.dotm template

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 08:21 AM PDT

I've saved changes to both the normal.dot and normal.dotm templates, in the designated file locations for those files within Word.   

But when I open a new document, it doesn't load the normal.dotm template formatting, but some other set of fonts and paragraphing designations.

How do I correct this?

I've used Word for nearly 20 years.  I'm using a new HP computer running Windows 7.   Thank you for your help.

Date field wrong day

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 05:11 AM PDT

Hello.

Well, I have a template file where I created a date field with the structure "Monday, 10 October 2010". The question is that current day's name doesn't match with the actual day.

So, as an example, today, what is shown on this date field is "Monday, 30 March 2014" but it should be "Sunday, 30 March 2014".

What can be wrong? System date is well set.

Thanks for your help!=)

Error checking of language

Posted: 30 Mar 2014 04:23 AM PDT

Hello,

In school, we have to learn a second Norwegian language, which is very similar to the one we use daily. There are however, an extensive list of words which are not allowed. To stop myself from making the same mistakes again, is it possible to somehow check for these words?

The spell checking in Word is quite poor for that particular language, as it is used by quite few people. Is there some way I can manually enter them and contribute to the spell checker? I can of course make a list and search for every individual word, but it is quite time consuming. Is it therefore possible to design a macro or use some other fancy ways of comparing two documents and locating the errors, where one of them contains a list of the taboo words?

All help is appreciated.

Percentage Signs in Charts Backwards (%89, %66, etc...)

Posted: 29 Mar 2014 11:51 PM PDT

Hello everyone,

I have Microsoft Word. Every time I open a document (or create one) all charts I create have the percent sign in the front.

As a work around I create a custom format, putting the % in front, therefore putting in the back on the screen. This is annoying workaround because I edit and review a lot of documents.

Can anyone help? I've never see this problem before and no one else has it.

Office iPad and OneDrive Issues - Missing Folders

Posted: 29 Mar 2014 09:09 PM PDT

After trying out Office Word, Excel and Powerpoint on my iPad it seems to me that OneDrive integration is broken.

The main problem is that various folders do not show up in the Office Apps on the iPad. These missing folders though do show up in the OneDrive app for iPad.

I've also had the Office Apps lock up when trying to refresh a folder. Either the program locks up and I have to restart it or, the refresh icon just spins forever.

To troubleshoot the issue I've removed the Word app, reinstalled and reconnected my OneDrive account. I've done this a couple of times and each time when I try to view one of my folders, the app hangs. After restarting the app the folder I was trying to view has missing subfolders.

If I add a subfolder after I've viewed the folder in Word (for example) the new folder shows up. However, none of the folders that are missing will ever appear, no matter how many times I try to refresh the folder.

Oddly enough the missing folders are different between Word, Excel and Powerpoint.

My "Mac Docs" folder should have 25 folders. Word shows 16 folders, Excel shows 9 and PowerPoint shows all 25. However, PowerPoint also has trouble refreshing the folder, and after I've removed some folders, its still displaying the removed folders.


Office on iPad has great potential for me, especially with OneDrive integration, however, at this stage it appears to be quite buggy.

bug report - opening documents created on a network PC

Posted: 29 Mar 2014 09:00 PM PDT

hello,

I recently created a document at work, on a computer that uses network drives, ie. my documents is \\user\<employee number>\My Documents\

I then sent the document to my home PC and opened it with Office 2013. It freezes on the splash screen, as the program appears to be trying to retrieve something from the (non existant) network drive (i don't have a network drive on my home PC).

If this could be looked into and fixed it would be appreciated.
