References show in search

Posted: 15 Nov 2014 12:42 PM PST

I'm cross-referencing notes for an ebook and I want to be able to search the text without including the references in the text.

For instance, I've got the below text with a reference

If I search 'this is a test' it produces 1 result. 

However, if I search 'this is a test for' it produces nil results.

If I search 'this is a test1 for' it produces 1 result.

Any ideas for excluding the reference from the search?

How to deal with Table Tools

Posted: 15 Nov 2014 12:02 PM PST

Split from this thread.

Can you assist me with a "Tables Tools" & Design Layout issue??  I have racked my brain with attempting to get rid of a piece of information that I transferred from the internet.  Once I transferred one small paragraph, the rest of the document now shows the "The Table Tools" highlighted, which has been a problem until it was time to insert "Page Breaks."  I was successful in inserting "page breaks: until I encountered this section.   

Moving a shape (textbox)

Posted: 15 Nov 2014 10:41 AM PST

If I have a macro that creates a textbox on a multipage document, I can adjust the top and left properties of the shape quite simply, but how can I move them onto different pages. I know that word does not think in terms of pages exactly, but it has pages nonetheless. Adjusting the top property of a shape beyond the range of the first page simply pushed it out of sight, rather than onto the next page.

Is there a solution to programmatically moving shapes or textboxes between pages?

Thanks.

URGENT! Need help with (corrupt?) Word Document! Please help! :(

Posted: 15 Nov 2014 10:30 AM PST

I am running Windows 7. I have a Word document created in Word 2010. It was usable and fine yesterday, all other Word documents in the same folder work properly.

The icon is grayed out, and there is an X over it. I get an error message whenever I try to do ANYTHING with this file (open it, move it, rename it, attach to email). It says the file is not usable by this computer.

I was able to get this error code when I try to move the file: 0x800710. I can't find anything online that indicates what happened here and how to recover the file. This document is EXTREMELY important.

Please any help you can give would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Index not combining main headings

Posted: 15 Nov 2014 08:41 AM PST

I get this when doing Insert > Quick Parts > Field > Field Codes: \F "G" \c 2 (I have six indexes and the one I'm concerned with is "G")

expectations fail

   invulnerability, 263

expectations fail

   evidence, 264

expectations fail

   evidence, 264

expectations fail

   evidence, 304

expectations fail

   evidence, 313        which should be grouped like this:

expectations fail

   invulnerability, 263

   evidence, 264, 304, 313

I have repaired Office 2013 and the document, given all the in-text index entries the same style, and used "dumb" quotes consistently, but no matter what I do, I get the above error. The same thing happens on a different computer running Word 2010, so the problem is in the document itself, not in Word (unless the same bug is present in both versions).

Word saves "extra" document with $ in the beginning. How do I stop this?

Posted: 15 Nov 2014 07:15 AM PST

Every time I open an old document and resave it  (I have templates that I do this with over and over), Word creates another file with the same name, but starting with the $ sign. It is only 1 KB of data and is listed as a "word document" in the "type" column. It cannot be opened and when I try to delete it, it gives a message that it may cause problems opening files in the future. Can anyone tell me what this is and how to stop it from happening? My folders are getting filled with garbage files!

Thanks in advance!!

I can't open word documents

Posted: 15 Nov 2014 06:39 AM PST

Whenever i try to open a word document through "Studywiz" this message comes up:

Word experienced an error trying to open this file.

Try these suggestions

*Check the file permissions for document or drive

*Make sure there is sufficient free memory and disk space

*Open file with text recovery converter

I can't work out what the problem is, i know i have enough memory and disk space, i have tried repairing Microsoft office, i have tried the "Repair and open" option, i'm just not sure what to do.

My school uses "Studywiz" for saving documents, and opening them at home, i wondered if it was a problem with that, but my brother can open all his documents (from his computer), and his word is from the same disc as mine.

Please help!!!!!
