Problem with call to AddTextBox() method in Word 2010 Posted: 06 Oct 2014 02:01 PM PDT Since upgrading from Word 2007 to Word 2010, the statement below in one of our applications fails with error "OLE error code 0x80004005: Unspecified error." Does anyone have any ideas on what might have changed or what might be missing to cause this? obox = odocshapes.addtextbox(1,nleft,ntop,nwidth,nheight) |
Posted: 06 Oct 2014 01:48 PM PDT I'm trying to change my header text. I removed the "Link to Previous" but now pages two and three both say section 3. How do I get page two to be section 2 and page three to be section 3? |
Word comments in File Explorer Preview Pane hinders reading. How to get rid of them? Posted: 06 Oct 2014 12:26 PM PDT On another Windows user account in the same PC I can see the Word content without the comments, but not in this one. This is what I see: As far as I can reach, it doesn't matter what I change in Word, I have changed the display and options of a lot of Word files in Word, but regardless of how they are displayed, what do I do with the comments and how each file is saved, the File Explorer displays the comments in the Preview Pane. I my older account I couldn't see it the comments either for some time, but it corrected itself suddenly after several days. It hasn't happened in this at least yet... Does anyone know how to correct this? |
Watermarks under inserted images Posted: 06 Oct 2014 11:40 AM PDT I imported a Print screen image into my document, but is stayed in front of the watermark blocking part of it out. What do I need to do to the image to let the watermark show through it? |
Posted: 06 Oct 2014 11:40 AM PDT I have been using Windows 8 and 8.1 for some time and it has always worked just fine. I use an HP Officejet 400 Color as my default printer (network). Recently, I upgraded (downgraded?) to office 365. Now, I can generally print one page from an office program and then I can not print again unless I reboot. I stripped Office 365 from my computer and reloaded office 2010. Everything worked fine. Again, I uninstalled Office 2010 and loaded office 365. Same issue. Just to be sure, I downloaded the newest drivers from HP and installed it to run from USB. Same issue. |
Mail Merge - is it possible to send emails with custom images? Posted: 06 Oct 2014 11:27 AM PDT Hi I've looked everywhere, but can't find this exactly. Is it possible to use Mail Merge in Word to send emails, where each email has a custom image? I have gone through several sets of instructions, including those below. They seem to work perfectly with ordinary documents, but not when I use the mail merge wizard for email, as each email then has the same image as the first email. I know that when making a mail merge for a letter, one can go to "edit individual documents" and refresh with F9 to make sure the images are correct, but this does not seem possible with the email option. I have tried installing Onmerge, but have a 64 bit machine, which onmerge is incompatible with. I have correctly sent up my excel document with the file path. As it stands, each email needs 5 unique images, so doing this manually is going to be a nightmare. There HAS to be a way.... does anyone have any suggestions, or am I just missing something in Words' Mail Merge process? I found this statement: "Remove the \d switch (which stops the graphic data being stored in the document) if you want to email it." (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-word/having-major-problems-using-includepicture-for-a/5e020fe5-37e8-4491-904f-de1a2d639e47) so it must be possible. Could someone perhaps then give me a clear rundown of exactly what to do when merging custom images into an email? Thank you :) THE INSTRUCTIONS I HAVE SEEN POSTED BY PAUL, WHICH WORK PERFECTLY FOR DOCUMENTS TO BE PRINTED, BUT I AM NOT QUITE GETTING TO WORK FOR EMAIL. To embed an image in a document via mailmerge, you need to enclose the mailmerge field in an INCLUDEPICTURE field. Depending on your data setup, a field construction like the following can be used: |

Mail merge problems with Word 2013 Posted: 06 Oct 2014 08:34 AM PDT We have recently upgraded to office 2013. I am trying to use a word document and an excel spreadsheet that I have used many times before to mailmerge some letters. I have followed exactly the same steps as always, but when I click on the select recipents and choose my excel file, a dialogue box saying "select table" comes up with random file names in it. Has anyone any thoughts? Thanks very much |
Quote field code not working for displaying previous month Posted: 06 Oct 2014 07:08 AM PDT Hi I have been searching out for the solution to display next o previous month Name on my invoice template. As Microsoft has suggested in example of quote field code that is { QUOTE { IF { DATE \@ "M" } = 1 "12" "{= { DATE \@ "M" } -1 }/1/03" \@ "MMMM"} } I have copied the same in formula bar after deleting = already present there but it does not renders any results. The above code is take from Microsoft at this link http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/word-help/field-codes-quote-field-HP005186186.aspx I have also tried these but does not works http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15768576/how-do-i-display-the-previous-month-in-a-ms-word-field http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3775872/how-do-i-display-the-next-month-in-a-microsoft-word-field But any of the above does not renders any result. Please guide step by step Regards |
Hard returns acting like soft returns Posted: 06 Oct 2014 06:52 AM PDT My document includes a block of paragraphs that I want spacing between; when I select them and adjust the paragraph settings I get spacing before or after the block but not within it. The paragraph symbols in this section look normal, but when I click on the end of the line the cursor appears after the paragraph symbol rather than before, and the paragraphs are condensed by backspace rather than delete. If I do this and then hit enter I can replace them with 'proper' hard returns and solve my problem, but I want to know where this problem has come from. Is this a bug or a feature I don't know about? (Note the 'don't add space' box is unchecked) |
quotes key appears as left facing chevrons - word 2013 - Is this triggering special behaviour? Posted: 06 Oct 2014 06:40 AM PDT Hope you can help me with a curious problem - The opening quotes key " is somehow appearing as chevrons « As a software developer I am using word to makes notes about html, asp.net and other technologies that involve mark-up code which means typing things like <%@ Control Language =""> after doing this I notice the the quotes no longer work and I get the above chevrons. What is causing this? This is Word specific and notepad, notepad++ etc. all behave as expected and if I open up a new word document the quotes once again appear as normal. Is this special functionality in Word? How do I prevent this or if this is a special mode how do I exit this mode? (UK keyboard - quotes shift+2 ) Hope someone can throw some light on this thank you Update the hidden formatting marks for that section reveal (text without marks shown below) 2nd Update fiddling around with this if I hit CTRL+z (undo) that replaces the previous « and replaces it with " and the last action was autoformatting - seems that Word is doing some strange auto formatting here.... which I wish it wouldn't AJ |

Manually insert a field code in Word 2013 Posted: 05 Oct 2014 11:44 PM PDT I'm learning how to manually insert a field code from an instructional book. 1. They show how to use an If-Then conditional formatting, and then manually nest a code within the "Insert this" text box by pressing Ctrl+F9. But When I press Ctrl+F9, no brackets appear; (Image attached "p115 -a") 2. Similarly, in the document, when I press Alt+F9 it doesn't reveal the internal code as expected; (Image attached 'p116 -a)/ Does anyone have any suggestions why this is not working for me, please? Could it be a setting in Word Options, ...? Thank you, Thank you, |

MS Word 2013 Crashes When I Touch Screen Posted: 05 Oct 2014 10:34 PM PDT Hello! This is my first time posting here. I run MS Office 2013 on my laptops, one a Lenovo G500s Touch and the other a Lenovo Ideapad Flex 2 15". Both have touchscreens and Windows 8.1. Every so often--while editing a heavily-edited and infrequently-saved document on the G500s and randomly on the Flex--when I t ouch the screen to scroll elsewhere in the document for editing, Word will freeze, the pages won't scroll, and then I'm told that "Microsoft Word has stopped working" and that the computer is "searching for a solution". Inevitably, the computer fails to find one and simply reboots the computer. I've nearly lost several college essays and lengthy novels to this infuriating issue; if not for the Autorecovery files, I might have taken drastic measures long ago. How can you avoid touchscreen crashes like this in Word 2013, short of disabling the touchscreen altogether? I've gotten quite used to scrolling up and down with my fingers and would rather not need to find a new office because of this. I have installed no add-ons for MS 2013 and I doubt my few installed programs are causing the issue. Any help please? Thank you! |

Posted: 05 Oct 2014 02:57 AM PDT I need to paginate documents written in Welsh in the header style 'Page x of y pages' I know how to do this in English and have set Word to CYM (Welsh) but I can't get the pagination in Welsh. It would read 'Tudalen x o tudalen y' or possibly 'Tudalen x o y ' or Tudalen x o y tudalen' RayTJ |
