problems with macro

Posted: 04 Mar 2014 01:27 PM PST

I'm trying to build a macro where I select all chrW(8900) and replace its font with "lucida sans unicode"  when I recorded the macro it didn't record the fact that I wanted the font changed. For example, I tried this and it didn't work

Selection.Find.ClearFormatting
    Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting
    With Selection.Find
        .Text = ChrW(8900)
        .Replacement.Text = ChrW(8900)
        .Font.Name = "lucida sans unicode"
        .Forward = True
        .Wrap = wdFindContinue
        .Format = True
        .MatchCase = False
        .MatchWholeWord = False
        .MatchWildcards = False
        .MatchSoundsLike = False
        .MatchAllWordForms = False
    End With
    Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll

macros disappear when user downloads template

Posted: 04 Mar 2014 12:45 PM PST

Dear Friends:

I am nvolved in a volunteer project where macro-embedded templates are downloaded by users to do a variety of processes across different versions of Word.

A user with Windows 7 and Word 2010 has been regularly downloading and easily installing macro embedded templates for this project including an earlier version of the macro that we are using.  He has been properly converting *.dot macros produced on pre-XML  Word computers into *.dotm and they have been running on his computer with the macros in them.

Last week we found that a template he was using had defects in it because the original author had defects in his normal.dot.   

I rebuilt this macro on my computer, which has Word 2013 running on Windows 8.1.   I emailed him a copy of this macro as an attachment.   However, he has not been able to make it run.

I have done several prolonged team viewer sessions with him trying to find the problem.  I am aware that to launch a downloaded template it is necessary to right-click on the tempklate to install it in word because left clicking on creates a file based on it that does not hold the template.  The test of this is the file name,.  If you open the file and the file has the samne name in word as the file should have you are doing right.    I am also aware of the fact that you must manually check to make sure upon installation Word has stored the template in the proper file.

I have also checked the trust center settings for this user.  They are the proper one "Disable all macros with notification." which should give a warning prompting a user to enable the macros after the file is opened for the first time.

Yet, successively,  I have found that on his own computer this user could not find macros in the template or when opening files based on this template.

We have also tried having him email me back the templates after such failures.  Each time the template has had the macros in them once downloaded to my computer/

Help?  Believe this must be a problem of settings on the user's Word 2010

Starting Office 2013 is slow after installing SP1

Posted: 04 Mar 2014 11:38 AM PST

Hello,

Since I have installed Service Pack 1 earlier today, it now takes a while (like 30 seconds) before Office opens up maximized.

To be specific, I can describe the problem as follows:

When I startup my computer, sign in and double click the Outlook 2013 icon, it appears in my task bar. In stead of displaying the screen "Loading profile" it directly minimizes to my task bar. Hovering on this icon displays an empty Aero Peek screen.

It will take like 30 seconds before I can maximize Outook and start using it.

This issue has clearly been caused by the SP1 update, because earlier today I didn't have any problems at all.

Is someone familiar with this problem and could you provide me a solution?

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Joost van der Linden

MS Office Word: Keyboard short to indicate where cursor is

Pressing Ctrl tells me where the mouse pointer is (via a circle animation). Is there a keyboard shortcut for indicating where the on-page cursor is?

Why won't openning a new document give me user templates?

Posted: 04 Mar 2014 10:10 AM PST

I'm demo'ing 365 and have been using 2010. In 2010, when I create a new document, there's an option at the top to choose user templates. They should be automatic, though that's another topic, but at least I quickly get to them.

when I choose New in Word 2013, I don't see anything to let me get to my templates. Instead, it's a whole bunch of useless templates MS has chosen to vomit at me. I scroll down and it keeps on adding those.

I checked File Locations and it imported from 2010 the correct path for User Templates, so why is 2013 not showing me my user templates?


Cannot open or print multiple documents in Word

Posted: 04 Mar 2014 10:03 AM PST

I need to be able open or print multiple documents at one time in Word 2010 on a Windows 7 PC. When I right-click on a document in the Open dialog box, the context menu comes up but I get the error "The command cannot be performed because a dialog box is open.  Click OK, and then close open dialog boxes to continue."  I previously had this version installed on an XP computer. It had the same problem but I could get around it by selecting "Print" from the Tools menu.  They would then print out of order but they printed.  That option is no longer available in Windows 7. The only option from the tools menu is "Map Network Drive".  I can print from outside Word but doing so is slow and tedious as it opens and closes every document and starts giving me problems if I try to print more than five at a time. 

I know others have had similar problems but none of the solutions I've found have helped.  I don't have Norton (or any antivirus software) installed. (It's a new PC and I'm trying to get everything working before I install antivirus software.) There are no add-ins in startup. I've also tried running as an Administrator, running in safe mode, repairing Word, and when that didn't work uninstalling and reinstalling.  I even consulted with a Microsoft tech, who couldn't help and told me I'd have to pay for premium support (I can't afford it and my boss will never agree to cover it.). 

This is only happening in Word. Excel works fine.

I'm just frustrated enough to consider "downgrading" back to Office 2000.  This is only one of several issues I have with 2010 but it's the most frustrating and time-consuming of the bunch.

Has anyone had this problem and found a fix?

Saving tracked changes on an emailed document

Is there a V-dot in Word?

Is Office that resource-intensive?

Posted: 04 Mar 2014 06:49 AM PST

I am using Office 2007 on a Windows 7 32-bit laptop (Dell Latitude D830, Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz, 2GB RAM).

When using this laptop for a while with memory-intensive jobs like video editing, it's kinda understandable that it shuts down when it overheats. But with Word 2007? Why is this so?

In comparison, I can have Chrome or Firefox open with a lot of tabs while video or music is playing in the background, and it rarely shuts-down-when-overheating.

Anyway, what can I turn off in Word to make it use less resources?

American to european quotation marks.

Posted: 04 Mar 2014 04:37 AM PST

After finishing a very long paper I realized that in Poland they placed quotation marks differently there. So instead of "He went" they have „He
went". Nhe first quote mark is on the botom. Now is it possible to automatically change the american style quotation mark to european one? Because doing it manually for over 100 pages is not something that I would be looking forward to.

P.S. Tried CTRL+H didn't change anything

Issue while with preview pane and word

Posted: 04 Mar 2014 04:02 AM PST

Hello everybody,

A few users in my company have been having the below issue:

when the preview pane is enabled double clicking on the word file (docx) does not open the document in word unless right clicking>open.

If I turn off preview pane all comes back to normal. This does not happen with all docx files but only a few (fairly complex ones), therefore looks like some setting within those files is not liking preview pane.

Tried the document inspect, re-save the document with no luck, if I save it using .doc extension it works fine.

Any suggestions?

configuration: windows 7 professional, Office standard 2010

thanks for you time

Salvo.

word opened from word addin freezing the dialog which has opened from addin and crashing the parent word document

Posted: 04 Mar 2014 12:55 AM PST

Hi,

I have a office addins which works seamlessly in excel, powerpoint and outlook except in word. We have a option to create a word documents using the templates in a dialog which is opened from addin. And we have an option to set the cache for our webapplication either to use filestorage or sharepoint storage.

Again the same addin works perfectly with filestorage cache but the same doesn't work with sharepoint storage. the problem is when we create the new documents using the templates it produces the new word document, once it is created and opened, the parent word document and the intermediate dialog window should get close but  instead it hangs both of them. when i try to close it explicitly it says word has stopped working. And am using sharepoint 2010 the same is not working with sharepoint 2013 as well.

I have posted in the forum before but I haven't got the response yet. please help me this is a major and critical issue for us.

PS: irrespective of OS its not working.

Word 2013 spell checker

Posted: 04 Mar 2014 12:19 AM PST

How do I get rid of the Word 2103 spellchecker and re-install an earlier version - which worked better, and which automatically placed itself in my eyeline near the text being checked and had an 'undo' button?  And is it my imagination or does the Word 2013 spellchecker have a smaller vocabulary?

OFFICE 365 - CAN'T OPEN DOWNLOADED FILES

Posted: 03 Mar 2014 08:55 PM PST

Basically, I can create new documents and open documents I already have, but if I download documents from an email or online I can't open them on either word or excel. It just shows the loading screen with "opening in protected view" indefinitely.

When clicking on a mailto link, Word 2007 opens the link as a webpage and not as an email address.

Posted: 03 Mar 2014 08:30 PM PST

Suddenly, Word 2007 is opening a mailto hyperlink as a new webpage rather than as an email address. Any answers out there?

Thanks.

Context menu very slow to appear (only in office)?

Posted: 03 Mar 2014 06:46 PM PST

Hi

I've just installed Office 2013 (64bit), and there is now a large lag (~2s) between right clicking, and the context menu appearing (only in Office applications)

After about a second the shadow appears, then followed by the menu itself. 

This lag is also present to a lesser extent when scrolling.

I'm running Win 8.1 on a Mbpr using bootcamp, all other applications run buttery smooth.

Any ideas?

In Project how do I get a task to start on the weekend.

Posted: 25 Mar 2005 04:17 PM PST

Adding to the other comments, the best way to use MS Project is NOT to try
to input task schedules yourself, whether you're trying to tell it to start
the task on the weekend or some other time. Project's job is not to parrot
back at you the dates you have determined you want tasks to occur. You
don't tell Project when you plan to do the tasks, it's job is to tell YOU
when you should be planning to do them.

A far better way than what I think you're doing is to tell Project
generically when tasks can take place (the calendar found in Tools,
ChangeWorkingTime and setting it to be the Project Calendar), what tasks
need to take place, the expended length of time each will take to complete,
and the relationships expressed through the links. The Start and Finish
fields are *calculated* fields and Project's calculation of them tell you
when they can be scheduled.

Hi Jan,

Sorry, I don't know if MS is planning on fixing the problem they acknowledge
in the KB article. Perhaps in a future SP but as stated in the KB article
the problem is related to an attempt to make MS Project 2002 compatible with
older operating systems.

Assigning a resource to a task that has a predecessor changes fini

Posted: 24 Mar 2005 11:21 PM PST

hi Bandu Patil,

Schedule is calculated by counting the amount of active working time between
the scheduled start and end of the task for the assigned resources. It is
when you assign resources that the Duration gets calculated. For example,
Chris is scheduled to work on the "Write proposal" task on Wednesday,
Thursday, and Friday. Jamie is scheduled to work on the "Write proposal" task
on Wednesday and Thursday. Sean is scheduled to work on the "Write proposal"
task on the following Monday and Tuesday. The working span of the "Write
proposal" task, and therefore its duration, is five days (Wednesday,
Thursday, Friday, Monday, and Tuesday).

The important thing to note is that Schedule is worked out when Resources
are assigned. That is, the active working time of resources contributes to
the schedule.

Regards,

Haris

Completed task still show in the resource view as work?

Posted: 24 Mar 2005 08:09 AM PST

Hi,

I'm glad you solved your problem but I must admit you mention a few things
that I don't get.
I don't have a "Resource View" in Project.
If you mean Resource Usage, it does show finished tasks as well ... unless
you use a filter, and what it shows then depends on the filter.
For instance if you use the "Work Incomplete" filter a finished task will
not show, even when the finishing date lies in the future.
Are you working with a filter of your own making?
