Text in Word diplaying lines between paragraphs

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 02:42 PM PST

Word is displaying a line in each and every change of paragraph. Even if I disable the Show/Hide option, the line is there. What lines are these (pointed by red arrows)? I do want the limits of text displayed but I don't want these lines. Please waiting for your prompt answer

Word 2010 Hangs when macro is used to ExportAsFixedFormat to PDF

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 02:33 PM PST

I have a document that I want to automate the conversion to PDF format.  When I run the macros below manually Word does the conversion ok, but if I run the macro test() (with Word open and no documents open), word just hangs and I have to force quit the application.  This happens on Windows 7 and Windows 8 but does NOT happen on XP.  Also tested with Word 2007, Word 2010 and Word 2013, all do the same thing.

I think the issue is the document has nested tables in it?  Doesn't make sense if I can do it manually or run the 2 macros independently.  It just freezes when I run them back to back with the test() macro.

Note: I can step through the test macro and it will work if I go slow enough, if I hit F8 too fast it will freeze.  I tried to put a delay in between the steps but it still freezes.

Sub openfile()
    Documents.Open FileName:="c:\temp\test.docx", ConfirmConversions _
        :=False, ReadOnly:=True, AddToRecentFiles:=False, PasswordDocument:="", _
        PasswordTemplate:="", Revert:=False, WritePasswordDocument:="", _
        WritePasswordTemplate:="", Format:=wdOpenFormatAuto, XMLTransform:=""
End Sub

Sub export()
    ActiveDocument.ExportAsFixedFormat OutputFileName:= _
        "C:\temp\test.pdf", ExportFormat:=wdExportFormatPDF, _

My Document Folder Changed to My Data Sources Folder - Why?

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 01:13 PM PST

Hi,

I use windows 8.1 on a new HP PC  purchased few months ago. On this PC I use Microsoft Office 2007 which I purchased few years back.  Everything was going well.  Under the Documents folder I had My Documents folder and under that I had I had My WORD Documents folder and MY Spreadsheets folder. 

Suddenly today I noticed the following change which looks like a big security issue to me.  The MY Documents folder changed to My Data Sources folder and underneath there are two folders, one is +Connect to New Data Source.odc  and the other is +New SQL ServerConnection.odc.

If I click to either one, it goes to Microsoft Excel and gives a security notice saying Microsoft Office Has Indentified a Potential Security Concern and it advise not to enable the blocked data connection.

Please guide me so that I can get to my word documents and spreadsheets without compromising security.  Thank you.

How to create a "Continued" table title?

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 01:05 PM PST

I use Word 2010 on Windows XP Professional for my job.  My documents contain multiple data tables that are more than 1 page long.  For tables that break across a page, if I want the title repeated, I can set it as a header row BUT that makes the identical title show up on the next pages.  I want to indicate "(Cont.)" on the subsequent pages to indicate to the reader that it is a continuation of the table from the previous page.  Is there any way to do this that doesn't require manually breaking the table and inserting a new caption above the second page of the table?

Alternatively, it would be good to have a row at the bottom of the first page that says "Cont." to indicate that the table continues, but the only way I can see to do this is to manually insert this row, which requires manual readjustment if the tables changes later.  Is there any automated function that will do this or can this only be performed manually?

Bought word and it will NOT work.

Clear Footnote Formatting

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 11:16 AM PST

I have a question. Perhaps someone has an answer. I have some footnotes that contain italicized text and would like to clear the formatting for them. I see that using the select all command (Control-A) disables the Clear Formatting button in the ribbon. Is there a way to clear footnote formatting without removing them or going through them individually (although if I have to do the latter, then it will simply take a matter of time)?

Stubborn space

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 10:58 AM PST

I don't know if this question is related or not. I'm working in a Word 2010 document. A Next Page Section Break has been added between a portrait page and a landscape page with a table. The table begins halfway down the page and there is a large space between the table title, which is at the top of the page, and the table. I can't seem to delete the space in any way. The table is actually adapted from a previous table and I suspect it may have something to do with the track changes. The space does not appear in the Final: Show Markup version but does appear in the Final version. Any suggestions?

Figure captions

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 10:41 AM PST

Invariable, when I put two images side-by-side and use the Insert Caption command, the numbering is incorrect. The left one might be Figure 1-4 and the right one Figure 1- 3 where the opposite is clearly called for. My only workaround is to put them in the cells of 1 by 2 table. I have been using a Wrap of Square for the two images. Please tell me what I am doing wrong.

A second, less pressing problem, is that the caption text is too small. It is a chore to do through the document altering every one. Is there a general setting I have overlooked?

Many thanks

Table of contents - Headings

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 08:35 AM PST

I want:

Heading 1 -text

Font size 14, Bold, hanging indent, new page before, double line space after

Heading 2 - "Chapter #": text

Font size 14, Bold, hanging indent, new page before, double line space after - no huge space between "#:" and the text

Heading 3 - text

Font size 12, Bold, hanging indent, line space after

Heading 3 - text

Font size 12, Bold, indent, hanging indent, line space after

How I want the table of contents to look:

Table of Contents

Heading 1……………………….right align…………15

Heading 2 (Chapter 1: blah blah …………………..20

Heading 3 (indent .25)………………………21

Heading 4 (indent .50)   ……………21

Heading 2  (Chapter 2: Blah blah……………………25

Heading 3…………………………………….25

Heading 3…………………………………….26

Heading 4……………………………27

Heading 3…………………………………….30

ETC!!

The text in the document itself tagged and associated with the Heading designations is fine - all works great.

Table of contents does not work at all. 

I have to re-choose tab leaders every time I regenerate the table of contents, even if I've changed nothing since the previous regeneration. 

Sometimes the TOC2 (which should be Heading 2 or the Chapters) still does not put in the tab leaders (….)and the page number is not right aligned - only sometimes and on only some of the Heading 2 instances. Most of the time it is in the line below the text and indented, i.e.

Chapter 10:      Blah Blah

27

Thanks for your help…i'm stumped and tried many times to figure this out -especially the Table of Contents issues

MS Word 2007: No option for Duplex Printing on HP 6280 (Duplex) printer

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 07:52 AM PST

Hi:

I am using MS Office 2007 with an HP laptop and an HP 6280 All-in-One, printer/scanner/copier.

This printer has 2-sided printing: both, automatic and manual.

After re-installing the printer software suite (driver, etc.) , I am not able to print 2-sided using Word.

When I try to print a document, The Print dialog box is not providing the option in the

drop-down menu for automatic 2-sided printing.  It allows only manual 2-sided printing.

In the Print dialog box, there is no Automatic option to select from the drop-down menu.

If I open Apple's iTunes and want to print info about an App, 2-sided printing works correctly.

Automatic is selected from the Print > Properties > Print on both sides drop-down menu.

I have looked at the Word Options > Advanced inside of Word.

Its Print section selection have check boxes for 

  • Print on front of the sheet for duplex printing
  • Print on front of the sheet for duplex printing

I am not sure what these mean: isn't duplex printing 2-sided ?

What purpose do these two check boxes serve ?

The printer does not print 2-sided whether or not these boxes are checked.

Now:

If I open a new document, I do not see any other check boxes, settings, etc. for 2-sided printing.

If I open an old document, under Word Options > Advanced > When printing this document,

I see in the drop-down menu selection, that  HP 6280 2-sided print option not available

If a select All New Documents from the drop-down menu, it reverts back to HP 6280 2-sided print option not available

There are only two selections available in the drop-down menu.


Any ideas on what may be  preventing me from having the option for automatic 2-sided printing ?

Thank you

Word VBA code to attach current document to an email template and insert data from a userform into body

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 04:19 AM PST

Hi

First time poster here.

I've been struggling with this for days now and would really appreciate some help with it.

I have a limited knowledge of VBA and have cobbled together the macro below, which attaches the current Word doc to an email template, populates the Subject field and inserts text at two bookmarks in the body of the email. This works ok, but it means that the user has to fill in two separate InputBox text fields that pop up one after the other.

What I really want to do is replace these with a single Userform with two text fields for Client Name and Client Reference. I just can't seem to find the code to enter the name and reference number at the the bookmarks.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Neil

Problem with track changes in word 2010

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 02:20 AM PST

Hi

In word when receiving a word document back where people/colleagues have registered their changes, I used to be able to press the track changes bottom in the menu at the top of the page. I am aware that I have to use the pull down menu to get the accept and go to next, however even tough that I do that, it does not do what you would expect it to do. Once it has accepted the first correction, words goes back to a normal page, it does not jump to the next correction so that you can accept/reject this. This means that I then have to go in again and click accept and go to next, however it does not go to the next correction, which means that somehow all the automatic moving to the next change it "broken". In the old day I used to get a little panel on the screen where I could accept/reject and then jump to the next correction. But now it does not do this, though I have clicked on accept and go to next, the window does not come. I hope this explanation is a sufficiently clear for somebody to help me?

Thanks in advance

Searching with tracked changes in Word 2010

Posted: 25 Feb 2014 01:32 AM PST

When I run Find and Replace (both with and without tracked changes showing) the search results do not include words that have tracked changes in them, but when I run Find (or Advanced Find) it does. Some of my colleagues have the same problem, but others don't, so could this be a particular Word setting on my computer that has given rise to this bug?

Mail Merge with Excel

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 10:51 PM PST

I have Office 2007 running on Windows 7.  I am trying to do a mail merge with an excel worksheet.  On the excel worksheet I have separate columns for company name, contact name, address, city, state and zip code.  My letter is on Word.

When I am setting up the mail merge I can get the address block to work fine by selecting the information needed.  The problem comes when I am trying to set up the greeting block.

I click under the address block where I want the greeting block to go with a line space between them.  When I go to select the way I want the greeting to look it defaults to the example's full name.  I click on "Joshua" and continue on to where you edit/match what you want to see.  At this point I am still seeing all the selected information from the address block ex: name, company name, address, etc.  When I click "not matched" on these fields then click ok and then go to preview letter my address block information has now disappeared except for the person's first name.  But, my greeting box is fine.

I have tried making another separate column for the person's first name only and even renamed the column to "Column C".  I then made a separate column called "Contact Name" with the full name of my addressee.  I went back to mail merge and selected the contact name under the address block and then selected "Column C" under the greeting block.  No change.  You either see the full name in the greeting box or just the first name only in the address block.

This is so frustrating.....can anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong?  I have checked my instruction books for both Word and Excel and they are showing exactly what I am doing.  I have also checked the help button on the tool bar and read the step-by-step directions.  It shows that this should work and they have a separate column for first name and a separate column for last name.  I have tried that, also, with no luck.  Everything comes out exactly the same....all or none.

I have a large mailing of 300+ to send out ASAP and I am hoping this is possible without having to type separate information for each letter.  I also want to use mail merge to print the envelopes if that is possible.  I only have one tray on my printer so it will have to be a separate run from the letters.  Please tell me this is possible and any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

chromebook / office on demand / track changes

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 08:46 PM PST

Howdies!

Um, so a colleague of mine recently purchased a Chromebook after her trusty laptop died. This has been problematic because we often work together on documents that require us to use Word's Track Changes features, and she can't install Word on her Chromebook. We've been attempting to use the Google Docs word processing online app, but this just doesn't do the trick. We've also used the free online version of Word but that also doesn't use Track Changes. My colleague and her husband share the Chromebook, and he happens to be a student.

Sooo my question goes something like this:

Does Office on Demand work on the Chromebook? And more particularly, do the Track Changes features work on the Chromebook?

And then, as a follow-up, is Office on Demand available through Office 365 University (it looks like it does)?

Thank you for your help!

Word 2013 - words cut in pieces at the end of the line

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 08:29 PM PST

I edited a 2013 document on my Android device using Polaris Office 4.0. Now when I open the document in Word 2013 (Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit), the words at the end of the line are being split into pieces so it looks like this:

He did not want to live with the debilitation of the disease for the rest of his life. Sim   ply put, Art believed life was no longer worth living. One night while ... etc. 

I've tried to imitate what it is doing by adding spaces within a word at the end of a line. I've searched everywhere and I can't find a setting to return the document to normal formatting. Any help would be appreciated.

Cross referencing produces wrong heading number

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 04:32 PM PST

Hi all,

|I have been editing a long document with lotts of headings and subheadings. The document is structured as follows:

A (Heading 1)

A1 (Heading 2)

A2

A2(a) (Heading 3)

A2(b)

A2(c)

A2(c)(i) (Heading 4)

A3(a-e)

A4(a-c)

A5

B

B1

B1(a)

B2 etc.

I have got it set up so that all numbers carry through automatically. TOC's work fine displaying the right levels and sublevels but I am struggling with cross referencing.

In my section A, when inserting a cross reference to heading of section A4(b) it spits out A1(b). When clicking the hyperlink it navigates to the correct place in the document, word just seems to think it's the previous section. What is interesting, in section E, the cross referencing seems to work ok.

I am out of ideas on how to fix it. Thanks.

Slow office & IE apps

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 04:24 PM PST

I am wondering if there is any relationship between Outlook 2010, Office 365 & IE11 ... on a Win 8.1 system.

I have installed Outlook 2010 from the Office 2010 Professional package, disabling all the other apps.  I have also installed Office 2013 / 365 for all the office products themselves.  FYI, I need Outlook 2010 so Stamps.com can see my contact list.  My problem is IE11 is very slow on any page that appears to  have forms on it.  Word, Excel & Publisher (the only products I have used so far) also seem sluggish as well.  There is nothing like spending a few grand on a top of the line PC to only have to wait for the keyboard and mouse to respond.  Firefox works just fine, but I would much prefer to use IE.

I also notice that whenever I open Word I get a comctl32.ocx not correctly registered, file missing or invalid error and whenever I trying to launch apps from the datafile it often results in nothing happening or the app crashing.  If I open the app and then open the data file it works fine.

I have refreshed my system 3 times and every time I have had these problems.  It however does not appear to be happening on my nearly identically configured laptop.

Undo single character

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 03:46 PM PST

Word 2007, on Windows 7. If I type a word, and then want to undo it, the undo goes one character or space at a time. So for that line I just typed, I'd have to hit Ctrl-z 104 times. This is not the case for every Word document I create.  I have read a few threads on the topic but they are pretty old and I did not find a solution. Some suggested it was a result of being in overwrite mode, but that's not it. Others suggested it was a problem related to footers or page numbers. Another suggested it was a bug that has been corrected in Word 2010. Anybody have any updates on this?

Thanks!

Unable to open hyperlinked PDF files. Error - Unable to open http://(I removed the link path). Cannot open the specified file

Posted: 24 Feb 2014 03:11 PM PST

Original title: pdf links

Hello All

My question is regarding an embedded pdf link in Ms Word or Excel 2010.

I have two separate users that have pasted pdf links into their own work document and they get the error message:


Unable to open http://(I removed the link path). Cannot open the specified file.

The links work if I paste them into IE or an email message body, just not Word or Excel.

Also if they link to a regular html location within the same path it works fine. Now I must mention that at the base of the link (xxxx.com\) it is asking for a username/password.  Would that hinded the link from working within word or excel?

Mail delivered to the root of domain not MX record

Posted: 22 Mar 2006 09:37 PM PST

Do they have multiple DNS servers with inconsistent records - so when you
hit one you find the MX and when you hit the other you don't and therefore
Exchange delivers to the A record for that domain?

Exchange 2003 unable to relay - using smtp smart host

Posted: 22 Mar 2006 09:16 AM PST

I would change the automated process to send to the smart host. If you
can't do that, you should make sure that the automated process is
authenticating properly. If your Exchange server is not exposed to the
Internet, you can enable it to relay with reasonable safety, but don't do
that unless you're sure that Internet hosts cannot connect to it directly.

Store Unresponsive with single thread at 100% of one of the proces

Posted: 20 Mar 2006 08:11 AM PST

Hi Ed,

I have tried stopping a variety of services, NAVMSE, Event service and MTA
as well as the backup services and they seem to have no effect. The store
still sits there at 25% CPU and the response to users is poor.

I thought it might be muck in the MTA so did a MTACHECK which found nothing.
I have enabled auditing to see if there is any sort of brute force attack
happening but can't see anything. I have checked all the schedules tasks,
maintenance and replication and moved it all out of the working day but I
still see this problem only during the day and in a predictable manner. I
have a graph of processor usage for a 24 hour period which shows this, if it
will help, I could send it too you.

I should also include some added background as well (it may be of no value
but it can't hurt).
The original exchange site was a single NT4 server with Ex 5.5 enterprise
IMC and twin X400 connectors. Public folders are well used and run a VB based
script to convert inbound emails to public folders to tasks assigned to group
mailboxes. There are about 850 users and 30gb of data. the original server is
called bru02.
Bru 02 fell over about 3 weeks ago with a well corrupted store and had to
brought back from tape which worked well. as a rule we don't trust machines
brought back from tape and remove them from production asap. BRU07 was added
as a new DL380 G4 running Windows 2k and exchange 5.5 was loaded. public
folders were replicated and mailboxes moved to the new box. The scripts were
re homed and all was well with the world... Bru07 has all the mailboxes,
public folders, scripts, x400 connectors and the dir rep connector. The only
thing left on bru02 is the IMC for inbound connections. Outbound is throught
the IMC on 07 and inbound will be asap. The problems started over a week ago
and still have generated no events worth noting nor any message errors or, in
fact, anything in the slightest bit useful.

The big question...
Is there any way to find out what a particular thread is doing? If i knew
this I would know where the problem lay and ,therefore, where to start
looking for a solution.

Thanks for reading this, I am sorry it was so long...

Receiving same mail over and over and over ...

Posted: 18 Mar 2006 09:46 AM PST

Hi Deubster,

It would sound like you have a loop somewhere. I suggest you log on to the
account and check all message rules and any forwarding or out of office
settings. Once you have a list of addresses that are forewarded too or
deligated too check these mailboxes, especially if they are external with
limited storage and, therefore, may be bounce due to their storage limit
being reached. You will find that somewhere there is a set of circumstances
that forms a mail loop.

You may also find that message tracking may allow you to visualise the
'path' the message takes.

Thank you for responding.

When I start Word it comes on as usual. Only when I open a file and want to

message

'this modification is not allowed because the document is locked'.

From this I gather that I am getting restricted functionality. In fact the

Well, that sounded promising, but it didn't work. This whole problem makes
no sense. Office ran fine from the admin account. I create two limited user
accounts within 60 seconds of each other. The problem happens with one, but
not the other. I'm debating the following with my coffee cup, which has
nothing useful to contribute at the moment:

1) Re-run setup with the "Repair Office" option. But, this says it'll return
the thing to it's original SR-1 status. Would this eliminate the service
pack & security updates I've done?

2) Delete the troubled user account and re-create. This costs nothing but a
few minutes.

As the others have told you, yes, it will.

My personal recommendation is to order it from Amazon.com. They tend to be
several dollars cheaper plus you get the CDs. No fussing around try to make
some sort of a backup copy when you find you have to reinstall for some
reason.

How do I blow away MS Office if I don't have the CDs?

Posted: 27 May 2006 11:35 AM PDT

It's been my experience that the Office 2003 installer will
remove a previous Office edition without the CD, whether you want
it to or not. I'm not sure why you're being prompted for the
previous edition CD.

If you really want to attempt a manual uninstall, I suggest that
you uninstall Office 2003, adapt the following instructions
provided by a Microsoft person some time ago in one of the Office
newsgroups for manually removing Office 2000, and then reinstall
Office 2003.

1. Download and install the Windows Installer Cleanup utility
from http://support.microsoft.com/?id=290301

2. Run this utility and check if Office 2000(or other Office
version) is listed.

3. Select Office Products and then click Remove.

4. Click Start, and then click Run.

5. In the "Open" (without the quotation marks) box, type
"regedit" (without the quotation marks), and then press ENTER.

WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause
serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating
system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems
that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry
Editor at your own risk.

6. Backup the entire registry and then rename or delete the
following registry keys if present:
(Note: '#' represents any number {0-9, A-F})

Microsoft Works and Office 2007

Been there done that

Uninstalled AND reinstalled works (Works623.cnv is from the Works CD - date

Deleted those files and rebooted STILL NO Dice.

Since having a working works under XP is more important for me then dabbing

reinstall my works suite 2005 with word 2002.

However once Vista is sinstalled to its own partition,then I will reinstall
Office within Vista.
Does anyone have any other workarounds?

"DebbieRy <MSFT>" <com> wrote in message

Hi Jim,
After some research, here's some info for you:
1) A full installation of Word 2007 installs the latest Works converter
(Works632.cnv), which includes some DLL's from beta Works 9.
2) These Works 9 DLL's have the same name and location as their Works
6/7/8/8.5 counterparts, meaning that the old Works DLL's get overwritten
with their Works 9 counterparts.
3) Some differences in Works 9 cause these newer DLL's to be incompatible
with the older versions of works, so the system loader complains about
missing exports when trying to run the program. As a result, the Task
Launcher is the only Works app that will run (it doesn't have the dependency
on the files that get overwritten).
Works can be restored via the following steps:
1) Start Office setup in maintenance mode
2) Uninstall the Works converter (the rest of Office 2007 is fine)
3) Uninstall Works
4) Reinstall Works
Note that this will mean that Word will not be able to read WPS files. At
the moment, I don't know of any way to fix this (I haven't tried it with the
old converter from the web site, but I don't think it will work).
HTH.
