Right now it is C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates and C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\UProof.  Is there a way to change the setting for this?

style separator stops heading 1 numbering

Posted: 29 Mar 2014 02:12 PM PDT

Hello,

I am another student who needs to figure out the heading and TOC issues.

My school is asking me to include the following headings for level 1:

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

But the TOC needs to only list:

CHAPTER

1. INTRODUCTION..............................xyz

2. CHAPTERTITLE 2.............................abc

Therefore I have tried to make a separate style for the word "CHAPTER" and then combine "1 INTRODUCTION" via a style separator.

At the point where I try to combine the 2 lines the numbering in the heading disappears. The TOC however still shows it. Also the sub-chapters are still numbered correctly. So it seems to count as a new ain chapter number, it just isn't displayed.

Any thoughts?

Any better suggestions on this topic?

Thanks,

Markus

A style I've created is not showing up on the style pane

Posted: 29 Mar 2014 08:15 AM PDT


I've typed something, selected it, clicked on New Style button, (found on the styles pane (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S)), selected the List format, baptized it "Titulo I", customized the style, and gave OK.


This newly created style applied itself alright to my selection, shows up in the Apply Styles... listing (Ctrl+Shift+S), but does not appear on the Style pane.


Why ?



In manage Styles:

  • All are permitted on the Restrict tab
  • All are shown on the Recommend tab
  • The newly created style Does show up in Edit tab


Once again, microsoft: Why !?



And by the way,

Why I cannot delete the Heading 1 and 2 from the style pane, when there is only In use style marked. This style is definitely NOT in use.

Disappearing PlaceholderText in Word Content Controls and how to fix them

Posted: 29 Mar 2014 08:05 AM PDT

Hi,
I have recently started using ContentControls in Word 2013.  They are pretty useful and the following pages have been a great help:
http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/word_tip_pages/content_controls.html
http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/word_tip_pages/modify_cc_placeholder_text.html

But Content Controls are prone to a few nasty bugs, see http://shaunakelly.com/word/word-development/placeholders-in-word-content-controls-for-developers.html. 

The main one I've found is that the Content Control's PlaceholderText object can sometimes disappear.  In the real world, this means that if you clear any entered text from a Content Control, it will display five spaces instead of the placeholder text you original entered at design time.  I've found this bug to be particularly prevalent when Content Controls are placed in Headers or Footers.

To fix this issue I would like to propose the following solution:

Const bIncludeSquareBrackets As Boolean = True


Sub RepairContentControlPlaceHolderText()
' This procedure checks for missing PlaceholderText objects within each ContentControl.
' If a missing PHT object is detected, a temp Content Control is added to the start of
' the document and a copy of its PHT object is made which is then applied to any CCs
' with missing PHT objects.  Then the PHT.Text is set to be the same as the CC's Title.
'
    Dim cc As ContentControl, ccTemp As ContentControl
    Dim phtNew As BuildingBlock
    Dim sec As Section
    Dim ftr As HeaderFooter, hdr As HeaderFooter
    Dim rng As Range
    Dim lnRepCount As Long
   
    On Error GoTo ExitPoint
   
    Debug.Print vbCr & "Starting repair of Content Control Placeholder Text"
   
     'Insert a temp CC and copy its PHT object:
    Set rng = ActiveDocument.Range(Start:=0, End:=0)
    Set ccTemp = rng.ContentControls.Add(wdContentControlText)
    If Not ccTemp.PlaceholderText Is Nothing Then
        Set phtNew = ccTemp.PlaceholderText
    Else
        Exit Sub
    End If
    ccTemp.Delete
   
     'Find any CCs with broken PHT objects and add in the phtNew object,
     'then reset the pth.Value to the correct string:
    For Each sec In ActiveDocument.Sections
         'FOOTER:
        For Each ftr In sec.Footers
            If ftr.Exists Then
                For Each cc In ftr.Range.ContentControls
                    If cc.PlaceholderText Is Nothing Then
                        If AddPhtToCc(cc, phtNew) Then lnRepCount = lnRepCount + 1
                    End If

    Debug.Print vbCr & lnRepCount & " Content Controls were repaired."
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then Debug.Print "Exited due to error: " & Err.Description
End Sub

Function AddPhtToCc(cc As ContentControl, phtNew As BuildingBlock) As Boolean
' Function to insert the parsed PlaceholderText object into the parsed
' ContentControl object.  The PHT.Value is then set to the same as the
' ContentControl's Title.  If the constant bIncludeSquareBrackets has
' been set to True, the placeholder text is enclosed in square brackets.
'
' Function returns True if the PHT object was successfully replaced.
'
    Dim strA As String, strB As String
   
    If bIncludeSquareBrackets Then
        strA = "["
        strB = "]"
    End If
   
    Debug.Print vbCr & vbTab & "'" & cc.Title & "' is missing a PlaceholderText object!"

Character spacing / line density in DOC saved as DOCX changes slightly

Posted: 29 Mar 2014 06:04 AM PDT

Hi,

I opened my Resume which a consulting company formatted for me as DOC.  I am using Word 2013.  The first thing I did was save the DOC as DOCX, and was prompted some minor formatting changes may occur.

The change I noticed is DOCX tends to fit a few more words per line than DOC did.  The paragraphs are fully justified in both versions, but the word spacing is "tighter" in the DOCX version.  So the DOCX fits a few more words per line and a few more lines per page.

The result is the page looks a little "denser" than before.  Since it's my resume, I'm not sure if prospective employers will like the "denser" look or not :-)

Is there a way in DOCX to control the word/ line density so it behaves more like the same file that was saved as DOC?

Thanks.

OneDrive nested folders problem on Office for iPad

Posted: 29 Mar 2014 12:02 AM PDT

For some reason I can't explain, all three iPad Office apps show the contents of my "School" folder on OneDrive in the same folder that the "School" folder itself is stored in. For example, the "School" folder is stored in the "Documents" folder and "Document X" is stored in the "School" folder. When I open the "Documents" folder in my iPad Office apps, "Document X" appears right next to the "School" folder, not in it. I have tried signing out and in, deleting Word and reinstalling it. The only solution, oddly enough, was to rename my "School" folder to anything else. Suddenly everything looked fine. Once I switched it back, it was screwed up again. I suppose the problem is fixed, but I would really like to be able to name the folder my school files are stored in "School". I can't imagine what is causing this. I have had problems with deeply nested files on OneDrive before, but I have more deeply nested folders than those in my "School" folder that work just fine. Does anyone have any ideas?

Word for iPad won't activate

Posted: 28 Mar 2014 08:20 PM PDT

I downloaded Word, Powerpoint and Excel for iPad yesterday and purchased a 365 Home Certificate. I tried to activate Word and am always given the message "Cannot Activate. This account doesn't have a paid Office 365 subscription." Then I tried activating Powerpoint and Excel -- knowing if you activate one, they're all activated -- and those won't activate either.

I have the receipt and Order ID from Apple and their phone support has been great, including today, Saturday. But ultimately, they can't help, because it's up to the developer (Microsoft). Everything is fine on the Apple side.

I have done everything possible, from rebooting, to reinstalling, to resetting my network connections, without success. So I tried to call Microsoft Support (through a link Apple kindly supplied) only to find they don't work on weekends.

I've searched the internet for solutions, but the program is so new that I appear to be the only one so far with a problem -- or maybe no one's buying a 365 Home subscription for the first time.

Any thoughts that don't include all the things I've already done would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Don

deleted office 2013 by mistake

In Office 2013, text selection with a mouse is too sensitive.

Posted: 28 Mar 2014 03:17 PM PDT

In Office 2013, text selection with a mouse is too sensitive. If I want to select a letter, it selects the entire word or sentence. If I do not position the cursor just right, it will select the previous word or sentence instead of the following text segment.

This makes me have to do it again. It wasn't like this in Office 2010, and it's really annoying. Particularly if you work fast and select something to delete, you could delete the wrong thing. I first noticed this when Outlook.com updated over a year ago, and now the behavior has spread to Office 2013.

It's so bad, I often have to resort to keyboard selection shortcuts and abandon the mouse altogether. Basically, it sucks.

Is there any way to adjust this, or tell the Office team??

Hi Mike,

Great info but I think that I might have missed a few details.

My O.S. is Vista Home Premium and what I would like to be able to do is to
insert the pontuation in Works in the same way when I use Word in XP. For
example, by means of pressing the CTRL + SHIFT + ~ + o and I would obtain an
o with ~, or by pressing CTRL + , + c and would obtain a c with a lower ,.

Hope you dont mind me adding your home page to my favourits b'cos it will be
very helpful for my studies in computer networking to obtain answers to
doubts and projects.

Many thanks

Bandwidth usage of MS CRM

Posted: 29 Nov 2004 04:55 PM PST

Hi

We have a site that is over two diffrent locations, linked with a 128 kb
line, it is digital (if it is dailup I am guessing your line will be
analog?) so that does make a bit of diffrince, but on that line it carries
ad traffice, exchange traffic, and 2 voice over IP channels. The latency
between the sites is approx 200 ms. The users are finding that on average I
page takes about 2-5 seconds to load completley, during the day and at night
quite a bit faster. We are also synchronizing the outlook clients over that
line, and that we got working after some tweaks to the line, and generaly
just optimizing everything. But like John says 30kbs and it might be
useable. If it was me personaly, and I wanted to update our CRM from a
client, 15 kbps will probably be okay because if it takes long to open a
page it does not really matter because I just need to capture a phone call
or email, but if I need to use the system, eg find out what my collague has
done with that one call or where the pruposal is in the sales track, then 15
kbs will not be usable. I have quite extensive IIS logs over the 128 kbps
line, and could send them to you? Sadly I do not have the line stats, as it
is rolled up into 1 hr avarges and that will not help you for your needs.

Migration from ACT to CRM via Outlook with Business Contact Manage

Posted: 29 Nov 2004 10:46 AM PST

I have done migrations from ACT to CRM two different ways:
1) Bought a $100 utility to export ACT to Access. This allowed me to export
each individual ACT table into a separate Access table. I then re-created the
relationships (had to create a new index column in some cases). I then
up-sized the Access database to SQL and used the CDF migration tool to
migrate that db into CRM. I'm not sure why, but even though I had maintained
the Notes/History as I created the Access database and then the SQL database,
they did not migrate into CRM. So if this is important to have, I would go
with Scribe. That's what I did the second time.
2) Scribe: It is quicker than the ACT to Access to SQL to CDF method, though
it is not as straightforward to learn as their marketing material makes it
sound if you don't have any database background. If Notes & History are
important to you, I would go this route and set a day or two aside to go
through the lessons in Scribe and do a sample migration.

There is also the third option: Microsoft Business Solutions has migration
services that are not that unreasonably priced. If your ACT database is not
too customized, they can usually do a pretty quick job, and you'll know that
they are going to get it right. If your company wants quick and right, and
has $2500-$3500 (depends on size of ACT database) check them out.
(mbs.microsoft.com). If this is not something you are going to do on a
regular basis, you may want to go this route rather than invest the time and
money in learning something you are only going to use once.

Good luck! And congratulations on getting out of ACT!

Peter,

Thanks for repling.

At first I didn't understand your response, but after I dug out more info on
CRM and its report writer I realized that I had misunderstood what was
installed and what was included. I had thought that a copy of CR was on that
other CD and needed to be installed. I didn't know that the Crystal
Enterprise was automatically installed and that the other CD had the Crystal

CRM "multiple instance"

Posted: 28 Nov 2004 11:49 PM PST

It all depends. As far as "supported" goes, it's 1 isntall per domain.

However, you can have multiple installs if you use seperate AD OU's for each.
The issue is the Excahgne router. As Merjn pointed out, the Exchange Router can
only route to a single CRM install.

As for the CRM App server itself, it can only "connect" to a single CRM database
and you cannot install multiple versions on the same server.

I've seen that Object reference error during installs on several occasions.

I do know that there is an issue running SQL Reporting Services on the same

In general, my experience with the object reference error has to do with
security related to how the install communicates with SQL and the CRM
platform layer to get data it needs to configure things after the actual
install.

Sorry, I can't be more helpful.

MBS has a tool that will recreate the default admin role for you, but you
will have to pay for support or burn a case to get them to use it. In the
future - never change that role..ever...ever...ever...really, never do it.
Did I mention not to modify that role....

Good luck.

Thanks a lot!

But what about priveleges? I would have to have privilege Read for Case to
view the cases...is it possible to set up such privileges in sales license?

MS CRM retreiving data from an AS/400?

Posted: 24 Nov 2004 07:52 PM PST

Bill,

We are urrently implementing an integration solution for a client between their
AS/400 ERP system and CRM. We are doing any "real-time" lookups between the
systems, but we are pushing data back and forth between the systems via BizTalk.

As Stephen mentioned, there are ODBC drivers that should allow yu to query
AS/400 data from a .Net app that could be configured to run as an ISV add-on to
CRM.

I'm curious about interfacing Microsoft CRM to an/any ERP package running on
an AS/400, perhaps using MS HIS, but there are other middleware connectors
available. I don't necessarily need the link to update AS/400 records from
MS CRM, but would like to retrieve account information on-demand from the
AS/400 for populating some of the data fields in the client interface of MS
CRM. The purpose being to add the MS CRM into an existing AS/400 ERP
environment.

Any pioneers out there with some experiences to share?
