Convert Works Database into Excel

Posted: 30 Sep 2008 05:29 PM PDT

It should. As I recall, Works Suite 200 is Works version 5. If the
install gives you an option, just install the Works and not the Suite
add-ons. You probably already have a newer version of MS Word.

Consultation about a formula for works...

Posted: 29 Sep 2008 03:55 PM PDT

From Works help:

Click the data entry values such as text or numbers in cells you want to
repeat.
With the mouse pointer, point to the lower-right corner of the cell (the
intersection of a row and column that can contain text or numbers that
contains the entry).
When the pointer looks like a plus, drag down the rows to select more cells.
When you release the mouse button, Works repeats the text in the selected
cells.

Tip

You can also repeat text by clicking a data entry, and then dragging down
the rows where you want the data entry to appear. On the Edit menu, click
Fill Down.

using Works Database

Posted: 27 Sep 2008 07:31 PM PDT

Hi Raymond,

Works database report limits the use of functions as you encountered.

The formula has to be entered into List view - a field that will hold the 'markings'
i.e. asterisk etc. This then becomes the value displayed in the report as indicator.

You may wish to use a new record line to print the asterisk etc. above the actual
score achieved per hole.

HTH,

Where is Works Calendar file saved to?

Posted: 25 Sep 2008 10:08 PM PDT

mswkscal.wcd is where Works calendar data is stored.

Works calendar reads the gibberish you see in the mswkscal.wcd file.

If you are in doubt whether the calendar is displaying what is in the
mswkscal.wcd file, tempory move mswkscal.wcd out of it's existing folder,
open calendar, it should display an error message. If it doesn't, then the
file you moved is not the one Works calendar is reading.

Hope this helps,
Ken

Finding the correct formula for this explanation

Posted: 21 Sep 2008 02:34 PM PDT

MR FORMULAS,
For a single item X quantity use the following:

A1= Item Name
B2= Quantity
C2= Per Unit Price
D2= Fee Charge
E2= The following formula, then drag the fomula down the length of the
column.

=IF($B2="","",IF(($B2*$C2*$D2)<1.01,1,IF(($B2*$C2* $D2)>60.01,60,($B2*$C2*$D2))))

Or you can just add the Fee Charge Percentage in the formula, like this, in
your fee column.

=IF($B2="","",IF(($B2*$C2*0.01)<1.01,1,IF(($B2*$C2 *0.01)>60.01,60,($B2*$C2*0.01))))

If it is multiple items to the same receipient, then you will need to get
the total of the order, before applying the following.

If you designate E10 as the cell that your total in E11 place the following
formula:
=IF(($E10*0.01)>60.01,60,IF(($E10*0.01)<1.01,1,($E 10*0.01)))

Or if you place the percentage for the fee in a cell, use the cell address
to multiply with the total.

charge it's less than $1 dollar how can I make it to display $1 dollar?. How
can I express this on WORKS?"

When a user clicks on an option button, instead of selecting it, the VBA window opens

Posted: 24 Mar 2014 02:12 PM PDT

Perhaps this is a cautionary tale about working at the edge of one's knowledge.

I'm not a developer but I know enough to be dangerous.

I use Word 2010 and my client's company (I just learned) is still using Word 2007.  I recently created a form template for them--a dotm file. The form initially used drop down lists but they changed their minds and I used option buttons instead. All along my client has been opening the dotm file and looking it over as I progressed through creating the form.

Now that I delivered what was supposed to be the final version she, for the first time, double-clicked on the file on her desktop to create a new document based on the template. When she clicks on an option button the button is not selected. Instead the VBA window opens. What did I do wrong? The buttons aren't properly grouped (because I did a lot of copy and pasting and forgot about grouping them correctly)--I can easily fix that.  But I can't see how that would be an issue. (Famous last words, I know.)

I'm fixing the grouping now but does anyone have any ideas on why the VBA window is popping up when my client double clicks on the template?

Incorrect Formats with Word Documents Accessed on iPad with OneDrive (SkyDrive)

This problem has been going on for years. SkyDrive and now OneDrive from the iPad App Store cannot format Word documents properly. Both fonts and spacing are off. Other Apps like CloudOn and Box format Word docs correctly. You would think that MS would actually try to fix this. I really would like to use OneDrive on my iPad to access Word docs.

Mail Merge from Excel - when I WANT a leading space

Posted: 24 Mar 2014 01:40 PM PDT

I've found quite a bit on how to get rid of leading and trailing spaces in Mail Merge - but I want to keep them in, and Word just won't let me!  

If a field is blank in a record, I want nothing in the document, but when fields are not blank I need their contents separated by spaces.  Making everything conditional ("{IF {x}="" "" " {x}"}") takes forever to code, and my master docs start to freeze and crash when they have too many complicated fields.

So I thought I'd be really clever and put the leading spaces in each field of my Excel data source, so the space would come in attached to the merged data and my merge code could be simplified.  Apparently this works with merges to MS Publisher, http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher-help/common-mail-merge-issues-HA010253730.aspx.  Unfortunately, when I merge to Word, Word automatically trims off all the spaces and smooshes the words together!  Ugh.

Tried using non-breaking spaces instead of "regular" ones - no joy.

When fields contain numbers, apparently it's possible to format in a way that includes a leading space - but this is all text.  

As it stands, I'm stuck with either (1) lots and lots of tedious IFs that eventually choke the software, or (2) maybe using some other leading character - something not in my data, like maybe an underscore or something - and then Replacing All of them with a space in the merged output.  Is there possibly a more elegant solution?

Addins Won't AutoOpen - Word 2010

Posted: 24 Mar 2014 10:05 AM PDT

I have a .docm file, which I've added to the "Templates and Add-ins" dialog (from a "Trusted Location"), then checked the checkbox next to it.  I assumed, like in Excel, that this would force Word to open this addin automatically upon launching Word.  This setting is NOT saved when Word is closed.  When I restart Word and re-open this dialog, my addin name is shown, but the checkbox is UNCHECKED.

I've also tried copying the .docm to the C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP folder, expecting it to be opened upon launch, however this doesn't work either. 

Ideas?

Word 2013 Shape Positioning

Printed labels don't align correctly.

Posted: 24 Mar 2014 09:31 AM PDT

I'm using MS Office 2007 on a machine running on MS XP.  I have been trying to print a sheet of labels, each of which has the same text as all the others.  The labels are in sheets of 65 (i.e. 5 columns of 13 labels each).

I found and downloaded (from Microsoft.com) a "wizard" or template which appeared to suit my requirements perfectly.  It was tailored to my labels which are sheets of DECAdry OLW-4730 65 x (38.1 x 21.2 mm).  All the dimensions matched perfectly, with left, right, upper and lower margins the same; the size of the labels the same; the width of the small column of "dead-space" between each column the same; even the size of the backing sheet was exactly the same as a sheet of A4.

Having completed the template, I tried printing the end result.  Hopeless......

-   the size of the text font was smaller than intended or expected;

-   the text 'blocks' were too close together both horizontally and vertically;

-   the left-hand column was too far from the left edge, and the right-hand column too far from the right edge;

-   the text over-lapped each label vertically and horizontally, to the extent that the bottom row of labels was completely blank and most rows above that

    were totally useless.

Since then, I have tried recreating the sheet of labels in Excel, but have only achieved the same result.

Can anyone tell me where I have gone wrong ?

Many thanks.

How do I save a mail merge letter?

I created a mail merge for a letter and saved it.  When I open the document, I have only the first letter available to me, not the entire group of letters that I thought I saved in the mail merge.  Similarly, I did the same for mail merge labels, and when I open that, I have only the first page of labels.  How do I get back to the full set of letters or labels so that I can print them out now?

And so on. Is there a way to do this in the footer?

Word prompting to save document that new document is based on.

Posted: 24 Mar 2014 04:00 AM PDT

I am having an issue that is bugging the life out of me.

We use a document that acts as a base for all our documentation standards call it "documentation1.docx"

(its a template but saved as a DOCX because its a living template and changes frequently, DOCTM is not suitable in this instance)

when I open this base document a make a pile of changes and do a Save as to another name (customer1.docx) and location everything is fine. A new "customer1.doctx" file is created and no changes are made to "documentation1.docx"

When I subsequently open "Customer1.docx" to make updates to it and save it it updates "Customer1.docx" no problem.  

My annoying issue arises when I close "Customer1.docx" I get a prompt asking me if I want to make changes to "documentation1.docx" even though I have not opened or interacted with "documentation1.docx" in days. I have to click Dont Save to get the window to close


why is this happening?

Tidying up styles in Word 2010

Posted: 24 Mar 2014 01:01 AM PDT

I've been working on a 200-page document, a lot of which is put together by cutting and pasting from a wide variety of sources. In term sof styles it was complete chaos and I wanted to bring order. I copied the whole into a new document based on my own template with a very limited number of styles and then went through re-formating by clearing all styles and then applying the styles I wanted. But the document still seemed to be full of all sorts of styles. Many of these listed in the Styles pane turned out not to be in use, and so I could simply delete them. But this could be done only style by style, one at a time, and so was a very slow and time-consuming processs. So my first question, to which I haven't been able to find a clear answer in anything I've read on styles, is whether it is possible to do a bulk delete of all custom styles listed but not actually in use in the document in consideration.

Secondly, where an in-use style is used a significant number of times I want to use Find & Replace to change it to the style I want. I find this generally works well, but have come up against one particular problem. To be able to find and replace, you have to be able to select the first style from the massively long drop-down list appearing in a very small panel in the Find & Replace box. What do you do if the style you want to find just is not there, as there is no facility for entering a name by hand?

And finally, I seem to be left with a number of styles that have apparently just one instance of use. They will not delete, but selecting the supposed instance brings no result and it cannot be found through Find & Replace. If I try and modify it by adding some outrageous characteristic so it should stick out in the text like a sore thumb, I still can't find where it is. How can I get rid of these single-instance styles that apparetnly cannot be found and changed? I'd like to end up with a manageable list of styles in use that I can overview without scrolling all the time.

(It's probably very obvious to the specialists that although I've been a Word user for a couple of decades I am still not comfortable at all with styles. I thought I'd mastered them at the start of this century, but then got totally lost again when Microsoft changed everything, in that I found what used to be a very simple way of working turned into something very complicated and generally very much slower than applying manual formating. I have tried searching to get clear answers to my questions, but have not come up with anything that has worked.)

Multilevel Numbering for Numerous Appendices

Posted: 23 Mar 2014 11:55 PM PDT

Can someone please point me in the right direction; I'm sure this particular situation must have been dealt with before.

I use multilevel numbering in my document associated with styles, i.e. 1.0 Heading 1; 1.1 Heading 2; 1.1.1 Heading 3; etc.

I have also created a style for autonumbering appendix headings, e.g. APPENDIX 1 etc. For this purpose I have created a style 'Appendix Head'. The prefix 'APPENDIX' is part of the the style, in other words, I select an empty paragraph and apply the style 'Appendix Head', and the result is e.g. APPENDIX 1 for the first appendix. Is this a standard method for numbering appendices or should one rather use the 'SEQ' field for this purpose?

I now would like to autonumber the headings in the appendices to look similar (in format) to the regular document headings, although they need to be independently numbered of the document heading numbers, and include the prefix 'A-#' where 'A' denotes Appendix, and '#' denotes the appendix autonumber, for example Heading 1 of Appendix 1 should be 'A1-1', Heading 2 of Appendix 1 should be 'A1-1.1', etc. Likewise, Heading 1 of Appendix 2 should be 'A2-1', Heading 2 of Appendix 2 should be 'A2-1.1, etc.

To summarise, the document structure should look something like:

DOCUMENT

1.0 Heading 1

1.1 Heading 2

1.1.1 Heading 3

2.0 Heading 1

2.1 Heading 2

2.1.1 Heading 3

etc

APPENDIX 1

A1-1 Heading 1

A1-1.1 Heading 2

A1-1.1.1 Heading 3

etc

APPENDIX 2

A2-1 Heading 1

A2-1.1 Heading 2

A2-1.1.1 Heading 3

etc

Add expand/collapse headings to older Word document opening in Word 2013

Posted: 23 Mar 2014 09:07 PM PDT

My client has a 20 page Word document created in Word 2007. They are looking to upgrade to Word 2013, which I have installed on my computer.

I've opened their document in Word 2013 and saved it as the new .docx format, but I don't see the expand/collapse arrows or options in the Headings.

They have used Heading styles and Heading 2 is showing as Level 2 in Outline view (though it's not indented - should it be?).

Has anyone else tried opening an older document in Word 2013 and can successfully see the expand/collapse options? Do I have to do something with the Heading styles to update them, if possible? I really don't want to have to recreate 20 pages from scratch if I can help it.

Regards,

Sonia. 

 

Round Up in Word 2010 via VBA

Posted: 23 Mar 2014 08:21 PM PDT

Hi

I have a document that I store raffle numbers for a short time.

I would like to know how many raffle books I need, I know that each book has 50 tickets in it, so I need to divide the total number needed by 50, but say I have 51 tickets, I will need 2 books.

How can I get Word 2010 VBA to round up to the nearest 50, so that if the answer to my question is...

     Between 1 and 50, I will be told that I need 1 book.

     Between 51 and 100, I will be told that I need 2 books.

     Between 101 and 150, I will be told that I need 3 books.

     etc.

Here is that part of the code I currently have:

     BlockSets = Round(Tickets / 50) 'Tickets = Raffle Ticket

Thank you in advance,

Neil

Character that doesn't start a new word?

Posted: 23 Mar 2014 04:13 PM PDT

Hi,

Is there a character that can be used to give the appearance of a space, dash, underscore or similar, but that Word (2013) will not consider as the end/start of a word?

For example, I would like text to appear like this:       FIRST SECOND

but I would like to be able to double-click on one "word" and for both to be selected.

It appears that Word treats any character other than a-z, A-z and 0-9 as a delimiter for a word, even non-breaking hyphens. 

Is there any character other than a-z, A-Z and 0-9 that Word does NOT treat as a new word delimiter?

Cheers
Rich

PS. Normally I would use lower-case and capitalise the first letter of each word an not use any spaces, but now I need to use a style which has All Caps on!

Caveat: I haven't setup Ubuntu. I have seen the online documentation for
that distribution, and it is very good. You should review their specific
instructions beforehand- so you'll know what to expect. My advice below
is generally applicable to any GNU/Linux distribution.

Because you have a current backup and PartitionMagic, you can use that
to prepare for the Ubuntu install. Ubuntu includes partition resizing
as part of its install, but if you are familiar with PartitionMagic
you can use that. Also, if your computer has a floppy drive, you can
make a Windows boot floppy now as a fallback position.

The first step is planning. Assuming your system has a single ide hard disc,
the space is allocated between the OSs. Here is a table which is a starting
point:

Partition Used for Size or % Comments
--------- ----------- ---------- ---------------------
MBR boot loader 512 bytes Use grub
1 Windows ? Windows likes to be on part. 1
2 Ubuntu Swap ? size relative to RAM (1x - 2x)
3 Ubuntu root ? probably 4-8G minimum

Here is one solution for an 80G disc:

Partition Used for Size or %
--------- ----------- ----------
MBR boot loader 512 bytes
1 Windows 8G
2 Ubuntu Swap 1200M
3 Ubuntu Root 71G

Use your plan and PartitionMagic to resize your exisiting Windows partition.
This works by consolidating unused space. If your disc doesn't have enough
free space, then you might need another disc, etc. Assuming there is enough
free space for the swap and root partitions, then you can proceed.

PartitionMagic has done its job when your disc has a single partition and a
free block (unallocated space) at the end which will be used by the Ubuntu
install.

The next step is to plan how your system will boot in its final configuration.
I recommend grub because it is a very flexible boot loader. I wrote about
grub here:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.linux.misc/msg/5a91c5ebd5c18911?

Grub can be installed either at the MBR or on a linux partition. For me, it
has been easiest to install grub at the MBR, (YMMV). You will indicate your
choice for the bootloader as part of the install.

With your plans set, boot the Ubuntu setup CD. You should be up and running
in no time.

Problems when installing Linux on Microsoft Virtual PC

Posted: 24 Jan 2006 02:51 PM PST

net.au wrote: 

All my VM experience is with VM under Linux, but some of these things
are undoubtedly similar to the problems I've seen. 

That's a good sign. At least the virtualization was good enough to avoid
comment. 

I don't have a copy of FC3 handy, but this is probably not a show
stopper unless your video card is ISQA rather than PCI (or simulated
ISA). It means the check (firmware?) of the device failed. I suspect
that the kernel used for the install is not the same one you are
booting, or is configured at runtime to use other devices or modes. 

That appears to be the failure() procedure, and it may have written more
information in a log file. 

That could be any of several things, 1-6 are the virtual terminals of
the console, the getty program is probably messed up, and since it has a
"restart" in /etc/inittab it get created and dies until the init process
gets tired of it and prints the message you see. 

Let me offer a thought which may address "poor virtualization" issues...
when you get the grub prompt, immediately press the ENTER or SPACE key
(forget which is used in FC3) and you should see the list of available
kernels (may only be one, not a problem). Then press 'a' to edit the
boot options. You should see the cursor at the end of the options line,
type a space and the option "noacpi" and hit enter.

That prevents a lot of detailed probing of the hardware, which is
probably emulated incorrectly. I suspect the virtualization you chose
was not tested with Linux, or was tested but not fixed.

One more thought: google "colinux," which is Linux booted from a file
(or CD) which uses the Windows drivers but really runs Linux. Totally
neat stuff if it works for your version of Windows. If that provides the
functionality you need it may be an alternate solution.

display configuration with RH9 and FC4

Posted: 23 Jan 2006 04:56 PM PST

Well it might be partly my fault. The rpm for the font server files,
installs the config file in /etc/X11/fs. There is a softlink from
within /usr/X11R6/lib/fonts (?) that points to the /etc/X11/fs
directory. That's where the service apparently is trying to source the
config file. Since my softlink was broken because I've moved /etc and
/usr to a bigger disk I thinks I broke the softlink which originally
looked something like ( ../../../../etc/X11/fs ). So I just changed it
to say ( /etc/X11/fs ) which fixed the problem.

Problem with grub on a usb disk

Posted: 23 Jan 2006 09:36 AM PST

I finally solved the problem:

I came to the conclusion that I had probably inadvertantly had
the root device set to hd0 instead of hd1 when I did the
setup command.

To fix the problem I broke into the grub command shell from a
boot and issured:
root (hd1,2) ( set the root device to the linux partition on
usb drive
setup (hd1) ( write the files fix MBR)

After a reboot and setting the usb drive to be the "first" drive
I was able to boot directly from the usb disk to linux.

(Booting WinXP still does not work from the usb drive)

What Linux distro would be best for a newbie who needs to run CAD applications?

If you are going to college to learn CAD then your best bet would be to find

Rather than looking for something free or cheap you should factor the cost
of the CAD system into the cost of your education and if you have to flip

how can I automount a external hard drive on startup?

I had problems myself with external USB drives and FC4, at least out of the
box. I'd certainly update to the latest kernel: I was trying to use an
external 300 Gig drive as a mirror drive for a source code repository, and
it would hang with the default FC4 kernel. It got a lot better with 2.6.14
based recent kernels, but I never got a chance to really test it again under
serious load.

I wound up giving up on USB for the moment and switching to a firewire card
and the firewire port on the machine, which worked flawlessly.
 

Really: which kernel? And does a Knoppix boot CD or DVD detect it and mount
it properly?
 

It looks to me like someone set up the hard drive as a single filesystem
without ever setting up a parttion, this it mounts as /dev/sda instead of as
/dev/sda1. That.... could cause adventures. Can you type "fdisk -l /dev/sda"
and see what is reported?
 

Also looks like a good idea.

Hi.

I am from Venezuela and my English in not good. But i need your help please.
I am working with users and resources in project but i have several problems
than i dont know how resolve.
1) We have the Enterprise Managment in our enterprise and we sincronize
Project Server with the Active Directory(AD). By error, Whe was sincronize
first the groups and then the Resource pool, and this order created the user
but not the resources in the enterprise pool. We deleted the user by PWA and
then we deleted the register from the MSP_WEB_RESOURCES table. Then I changed
the order and sincronized first the Enterprise Pool and then the Groups. In
this oportunity the people was not be created neither the user niether the
resource. Why? Then i open the Enterprise Resource Pool and add the user from
the AD y this cause an error that explain in professional that the windows
account for the users is dupplicated, but i dont find that people in the
resources tables, i dont find that people in the resource pool and i dont
find that people in the PWA. Why i can't create them from the Enterprise Pool?

2) How i can found the differences between an user of PWA and a resource. I
want know which users are only user for PWA but not are Resources? It is
possible? How?

Very thanks for your help

How can I set a task to occur (X) time before another task?

Posted: 08 Apr 2005 06:39 AM PDT

I find it helpful to think of "predecessor" as meaning "controlling" and
"successor" as meaning "controlled" in these contexts. So "Install Roof" is
the predecessor since its schedule controls when you need to perform the
successor "Order Panels" even though the Install comes after the Order in
the time sequence. Link "Install Roof" as the predecessor with "Order
Panels" as the successor. Set the link type to SF, Start-to-Finish (the
opposite of the normal FS), so the start of the predecessor links to the
finish of the successor. Add a 4 week lead time (lag time = -4 weeks).

Julie,

Just when I posted it I thought of the following.
When you have a "leveled" situation A and you level one more time to a
situation say B, indeed clear leveling will not revert to situation A but to
a fully unleveled situation.
So when you think you will need an "undo" to an already leveled situation
you indeed need a backup.

Just a quick response related to tracking budget without costs. I have
worked within a organization that managed using earned value, calculated with
hours. This required some custom tables and macros within MS Project,
because I believe MS Project's out of the box earned value approach relies on
using the cost fields. The approach I particpated in used custom ACWP, BCWS,
BCWP fields based off Work, Remaining Work, Actual Work, and Baseline Work
values. We also had the option of using cost in dollars (vs. hours) for
doing Earned Value calculations.
