| Posted: 11 Apr 2014 03:37 PM PDT Auto Text that contains multiple entries with the same root requires you to type the word until there is a distinguishing letter. For example, incorporated and incorporation Auto-complete requires you to type until the first letter after the 't' before suggesting an auto-completion rather than presenting you with multiple options say after you had typed 'inco'. Most long words differ at the end - not the beginning, so most of the typing is done before a suggestion pops up. Not helpful. If a list of words that apply were provided (0-9, a-z), you could finish the word with one letter. |
| Hyperlink Footnotes in Word 2013 so they will export as hyperlinked in PDF format Posted: 11 Apr 2014 01:40 PM PDT I'm formatting some material in Word 2013 for my target format in PDF. I've got most of what I want excepting my footnotes. I'd very much like to have clickable footnotes (I'd settle for clickable endnotes, even) in the PDF document final product. The TOC comes over from Word with hyperlinks, so I'm thinking hyperlinks from Word to PDF in general are exportable. My final caveat is that there are 700 footnotes total, so a solution can't be manual (at least not for each one - manual steps or massaging, merging, etc is fine, but please help to not convert 700 footnotes to hyperlinks by hand - I just manually add each footnote by hand already, but didn't think to add they hyperlink step. Macros, VBA, is fine, I'll try anything like that. Thanks, Jack |
| Office 2007 hangs in Windows 8.1 Posted: 11 Apr 2014 01:32 PM PDT I recently purchased an HP Envy23 with Windows 8. Office 2007 (pro) installed and ran fine. Then I (stupidly?) upgraded to 8.1 without making a recovery disk to downgrade if I didn't like it (I didn't learn about this till after I updated to 8.1). Well ... Word 2007 is hanging whenever I ... save, use keyboard shortcuts, click and drag to select text, try to close a document ... you name it, I could continue the list. I end up having to End Task in Task Manager, but then nothing I just did in the document is saved. I spent a good portion of today double checking the updates to make sure I had SP3 and other recent security updates. I've restarted my computer several times, as well. Nothing seems to help. I have installed no other software since updating to Windows 8.1. I already ran my antivirus and malware software. Both came back clean. What updates should I look for, or what could you suggest I do to fix this problem. My dissertation proposal is at a standstill until I fix this. |
| Word 2013 to PDF Conversation doubles file size Posted: 11 Apr 2014 12:32 PM PDT Our enterprise upgraded to Office 365 small business, and with that comes an upgrade from Office 2007 to 2013. Since the upgrade, whenever we convert a word doc to a pdf, it doubles the filesize. The file before is a general newsletter created in word, about 350k in size. Normally, we would convert to pdf, making it around the same size (with word 2007), but now, when we do the same steps in 2013, it makes it over 700k. We check the box to make it smaller (minimum size (publishing online), but beyond that, we don't do anything else. I'm not looking for ways to make the word doc smaller, I'm looking for ways to make the converted pdf the same size as the word doc. Again, this issue started with the upgrade from 2007 to 2013, it is NOT an adobe issue, it is a Word 2013 issue. I can replicate the exact same steps on the same computer using word 2007, and the pdf created is right around 350k. I do the same thing in 2013, and the pdf created is over 700k. I read somewhere that word may include the source file in the conversion, which we don't want, but I can't find the option to remove anywhere. I'm not sure if that will solve the issue or not, but it is a start. |

| Setting Microsoft Office Program as default Posted: 11 Apr 2014 11:11 AM PDT I have Microsoft Office Professional 2010, Kingsoft and OpenOffice installed on my computer. How can I set Microsoft Office 2010 as the default program? I am running Windows 8.1. but when I click on Default Programs in Control Panel, Microsoft Office Professional 2010 is not even listed. Neither are any of the Office components listed separately. Only OpenOffice is listed and it is currently the default program. I want Microsoft Office Professional to be the default program. |
| Microsoft Word mail merge operation with outlook Posted: 11 Apr 2014 10:51 AM PDT My Word 2010 Mail Merge fails when I try to use my Outlook Contacts as the data file for names and addresses. Is there a download or update that fixes that? My updates are current and I have used the Mail Merge facility extensively, so I think it is a software problem. I can't get a chat or a phone response from Microsoft support, so I thought that one of you might have a solution for me. |
| Error code 30029-4 when trying to fix Office 2013 Posted: 11 Apr 2014 09:54 AM PDT I am having a really hard time with Microsoft Office Word 2013. All the other programs work fine. When I go to start Word, it takes a good 10 minutes for it to eventually open after I clicked on the icon. I tried running the Repair options in the Control Panel. The first option, Quick Repair, runs but eventually, an message shows up "Error code 30029-4". Same thing when I try the second option, Online Repair. I tried many solutions. I tried uninstalling using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2739501/en-us and then reinstalling. Same problem persists. I then tried deleting all the temporary files 'TEMP'. However, when doing this, I am unable to remove certain files, including officeclicktorun.exe_c2ruidll(20140411123701780) and officeclicktorun.exe_streamserver(20140411123705780). I have a feeling these files might be causing the problem. However, I have no idea what to do at this point. This isn't the first time I have problems with Word 2013, but this is the worst. I have lost at least 5 hours of work doing all this and looking for solutions online. Thank you for helping a paying customer |

| Problems with Tracking Changes in Word 2007 Posted: 11 Apr 2014 07:05 AM PDT I recently needed a new computer, which now happens to be running Windows 8 with Office 2007. All my previous documents I had the changes tracked and amended lines marked only with a line in the left margin. Since my new installation, I have had loads of problems trying to get the same result in Word 2007. I have tried bubbles, tracking inline and selecting and deselecting various tracking and printing options, however, I can't get a markuped version to print without all the deleted text/old formatting/bubbles ruining the result of the document. If I request that the final version is shown, or document is printed without markup, then obviously the final document is printed without any of the lines in the left margin showing an amendment has been made!! I am at the end of my tether trying to make it work! Does anyone know how? It used to be so easy! Or does anyone know if this can be done in a more recent version of Word? Thank you! |
| "Do not check spelling or grammar" not stay checked Posted: 11 Apr 2014 06:53 AM PDT Hi guys. I'm using "Do not check spelling or grammar" in my style with type "character style". This style uses for select a words with fixed font in paragraph. I need ignore some keywords in paragraph (like C++ variables names which do not need to check of course) in paragraph text. But when I check checkbox "Do not check spelling or grammar" in style it unchecks after exit from editing of style and grammar checker uses in any case fore words with this style. How I can ignore spelling checking in some words in paragraph automatically by style (not by selecting "ignore word" for each keyword in my document)? I just want that this will be worked in my style. I have many words in paragraphs which must be ignored in my documents. Thank you. |
| Check if a character is in a Word Table Cell Posted: 11 Apr 2014 06:46 AM PDT Hi, I have a Word Table and I would like to check that if it has a "/" three characters from the right within a line of rows. So information about the cell... I enter the following as a date (Not code, just type) "00/00", most of the time, this is all I have in the cell, but sometimes I my have some text and Line Feed. I would like to add only the cells that have the date as above, so what I want to do is check that the cell is not empty ie first part of my code, but also check for the date (Both are needed to make this true). I have this code, but it is giving me an error, but I just cannot spot the error... If Len(.Cell(WhichRow, 1).Range.Text) > 2 _ NoDate = NoDate + 1 end if If Cell is not Empty and if 3 from the right does not equal "/" then True. Do I need to include the EndofCell so instead of 3 need 5. Thank you for your help Neil |
| Special Page Numbering Scheme not Reflected in the TOC Posted: 11 Apr 2014 05:49 AM PDT I have a large document, used as a training guide with the odd pages numbered, the even pages not numbered. After the cover page, a company disclaimer on the back of the cover and a table of contents, the body of the guide begins. I have modified the page numbering field so the first Odd Page after the TOC is numbered "Page 1". The following Odd Page is numbered Page 2, followed by Page 3 on the next Odd Page, and so on. What I need to do is have the table of contents reflect the page numbers that are in the footer of the document. Rather than displaying Page 1 as the first TOC entry (the line of text in the document is formatted with Heading 1 style) it is showing page 5, which is the page number shown on the Word status bar. How can I modify the TOC field to conform the the displayed page numbers, not the page count that Word uses? Thank you. Paul |
| Track changes dialogue box too big for netbook screen, how do I resolve? Posted: 11 Apr 2014 04:29 AM PDT I see this question asked in Dec. 2009, but none of the suggestions worked for the 8 people with the problem then, and they do not work now for me. I have tried changing the resolution, if anything it made the box larger not smaller. I tried using CTRL and mouse wheel did not work. I note that it is no longer possible to customize display as it used to be so that you could actually size fonts and boxes in Display. I note that the dialogue box has no buttons that allow resizing. So this function is useless to me and this is incredibly frustrating. Carol |
| How to use customized Quick Access Toolbar with default office menu tabs Posted: 11 Apr 2014 01:14 AM PDT I am making an template in Word 2010. What I want to do is to make a template which has a new ribbon tab with 4 groups in addition to the default word tabs. The template also should have a quick access toolbar with 4 different image icons corresponding to the 4 groups. I am using "Office Ribbon Editor", and succeeded to add a new ribbon tab with 4 groups. But then, how can I create a customized QAT for the template? I tried but I couldn't show the intended QAT because I declared <ribbon startFromScratch="false">. Also, how to specify different image icons for each group on the QAT? |
| Office 2013 not staying "online" and saving on local pc Posted: 10 Apr 2014 11:18 PM PDT When I go to office or skydrive online I can click to work on a doc online or on desktop if i have it saved to skydrive. And it will open the desktop version and work however if I go to skydrive from my desktop on my local files and open a doc that is online it downloads and then every time I am done I have to right click and press keep online. It will also download any doc if you use the skydrive app. So why is it that if you go online to office or skydrive you can open a doc on desktop and it stays online but whenever u use the skydrive app or go to your files and select the skydrive doc it downloads it to offline? One note also allows you to keep everything online as well so why not all of the other office apps? |
| Posted: 10 Apr 2014 08:52 PM PDT I have a problem printing a document on Word 2011 for Mac. Mac 2011 OS. I have inserted a table in landscape view in the middle of a document with pages of standard A4 portrait view. When I print the document, the table it is moved down on the page and only the top half is printed, and the next portrait view page has its text moved sideways. Otherwise the document print out is unaffected. How can I fix this? That is, print the table in landscape view without being moved, and prevent the following page being mucked up. Does this happen because I have put a section break on the previous page to the table? When I just print the table page and the following page only, they rint together perfectly. It appears to me something from the previous page is screwing the print up. |
| Mail merge to print envelopes on windows 8 , word 2010 Posted: 10 Apr 2014 08:09 PM PDT I already have the data base set up in excel. I followed the mail merge instructions. But when I go to the mail merge recipients and put a check mark in only the ones I want printed. When I go to preview results it shows me that all records will be printed. If I go to merge to printer, I have a choice of either the current (1) record or all the records, not just the one's I checked. Basicily,?? I just want to print the envelopes that I have checked for the mail merge. |

I would really appreciate it. I have Windows, and Microsoft Office, if that helps. I have clicked on Microsoft Word below but I know that it doesn't have anything to do with Word.

| Posted: 10 Apr 2014 05:48 PM PDT I am using Word 2013 on a windows 7 computer. When I try to print an envelope and click on Mailings - Envelopes the only thing I get is a Envelope Options window with Envelope Options and Printing Options tabs. No place to type in the address I want to print. From looking at the web it looks like I should get a Mailing and Labels dialog box or window. How do I get that? Clicking on Mailings - Labels gives the same thing. Just Envelope Options window. Thanks. Bob |

| Renames all pictures not one pic in MS Office Picture Manager 2007 Posted: 10 Apr 2014 05:29 PM PDT I have a problem in to rename one new picture in my MS Office Picture Mgr 2007 [Windows 7] and it renames ALL the pics in my whole file. All 400something of them. And it is the second time it has done this. I have renamed my pics and thought it was all organized and poof all my work is gone. Then I can't even use them. How can I get it to stop doing this? What am I doing wrong to have all renamed not just the one I am renaming? Is there a go back feature to go back to what they were named? Thanks for any assistance to this issue. I do not even think I have selected the right catagory and topic I just need to post a question and get an answer back. |
| How to pause a macro when dialog box is open Posted: 10 Apr 2014 05:17 PM PDT First, I need to create a form which will automatically populate contact details from Outlook. I have used http://www.msoutlook.info/ as a guide. Now I want to create a macro which will automatically bring up this address book, have the user select a name from the contact list, and then reformat it by removing the spaces. Problem I have is that as soon as the address book dialog box opens, I am not able to pause the macro so that the user can make the selection. Any helpful tips on how I can automate this? The end goal is that the user does not want to cut and paste the customer data from the address book into a form I am creating. The link above seems to be the only way to select a contact from Outlook, but the user wants the form completely automated -- he doesn't want to have to remember how to call up the address book.

| Save as screen obscures document in Office 2013 Posted: 10 Apr 2014 05:09 PM PDT When I save as, the screen obscures the document I am saving, so that I can't see any of the detail. I tend to save the same document many times for different users, with slightly different changes each time, and I need to see the document itself to know what to call it. Minimising the save as window does not make any difference, is there anything else I can try? |

| Tabs in Word 2013 Automatic Table of Contents Posted: 10 Apr 2014 04:40 PM PDT Hello, I have a large document with an extensive TOC that I have generated automatically. I am having two issues that I believe are related. The first issue is that despite having all of my tab stops correct I have to manually update every line of the TOC after updating. See example 1 for pre-manual manipulation and example 2 for the desired effect. I am also having problems with the second line of an entry where it should be lined up with the text of the first line in the TOC entry. In this instance I can only adjust the second line indent using the rulers (example 3). Is there a way to make it automatically line up (example 4)? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Example 1 - A LOREM IPSUM ................1 A. 1. LOREM...................2 A. 2. IPSUM....................3 Example 2 - A LOREM IPSUM ............1 A. 1. LOREM.............. 2 A. 2. IPSUM................3 Example 3 - A LOREM IPSUM ............1 A. 1. LOREM.............. 2 A. 2. IPSUM LOREM IPSUM..............................3 Example 4 - A LOREM IPSUM ............1 A. 1. LOREM.............. 2 A. 2. IPSUM LOREM IPSUM................ 3 |
| Posted: 10 Apr 2014 04:23 PM PDT Hello, I am creating a template and I want to create a feild, but then have the content of that feild show up in several other locations throughout my template. How can I do this? For example, the cover page of a report has a part number, when I fill out the part number on the cover page, I'd like word to populate several other tables and or section titles with the same Part number text. This will reduce the amount of time it takes to copy and paste part numbers through out the report. Thank you. |
| Unable to use Nokia Lumina 2520 Accessory Keyboard with Microsoft Office and Internet Explorer Posted: 10 Apr 2014 04:07 PM PDT I received a Nokia Lumina 2520 accessory keyboard as a promotion. As instructed I downloaded and installed all the updates before connecting the keyboard. I booted up the tablet with the keyboard and was able to type in my password using the accessory keyboard, BUT when I try to type text in Word, or key in a URL in IE, nothing happens, no text appears on the screen. The cursor works, and I can open drop down boxes in Word, I just cannot type text. Nokia Support had me return the first accessory keyboard as defective. I have received the replacement, done all of the above again, and the second keyboard still does not type text in Word or IE. Is there a secret Microsoft setting that needs to be activated to get the accessory keyboard to work with my Microsoft applications?

| Word 2010 : Unable to work with Speech recognition Posted: 10 Apr 2014 03:50 PM PDT I am a reasonably satisfied user of Windows Speech Recognition on a Windows 7 machine running Office 2010. I previously used Dragon Naturally Speaking, which rarely gave me much comfort. DNR, it seems, just couldn't get used to my mellow intonations. Windows SR is indisputably superior to DNR, except for one issue. When I'm speechifying (more often than not in Word), and abandoning all caution, I try to insert the word "of," or start a phrase with "of," in my document, I get a "Find and Replace" window shoved in my face with the "Go To" tab front and center. Go to where?? And why? It also happens when I use the word "to," which is even worse because my "to" is being summarily replaced by a 3! In either case, to add insult to injury, the number 3 is inserted either right where I wanted "of/to," or in the line directly above that location. Sometimes, additional letters or words adjacent the 3 will simply disappear. What should have taken 1/2 second now consumes 3 or 4!! This is a royal PITA, and I would like to know how to turn this little monster off. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks for any help. Old title: Rebellious SR |
