| Posted: 27 Jun 2014 02:35 PM PDT When using Word Count from the Review ribbon, it also counts all words located in field codes. For example, if a document is coded with TC fields, it includes the text within the brackets. Is there a setting to turn that off? Word 2007 Windows 7 |
| openoffice.org Writer has taken over my Word.doc files Posted: 27 Jun 2014 02:31 PM PDT I am running Microsoft Office Word 2003 (11.8411) SP3. I installed Apache OpenOffice 4.1.0, and now I find that whenever I try to open one of my Word.doc files it automatically comes up in OpenOffice. In fact, all my Word.doc files have a new OpenOffice icon in front of them. I am not aware that i set OpenOffice as a default word processor, but it seems to have taken over. I would like to keep it on my computer, but would also like to use Word 2003. Can you help? |

| Posted: 27 Jun 2014 02:20 PM PDT I have a Word Form that has form protection (Developer tab) with several text fields and dropdown boxes. It works great on the Desktop version of Word, but not on the iPad. I can't edit the fields on the iPad, or even see what choice has been selected in the dropdown boxes. I need to be able to edit the form on the ipad. Is there a flavor of Word on the iPad that will accomplish this? One of the Enterprise versions possibly? |
| VBA Code to allow more that 256 characters in Text Box Form Field Posted: 27 Jun 2014 11:31 AM PDT Hello, In a protected document, I have a Text Box Form Field that may sometimes require more than 256 characters. I have an On Exit macro that passes the contents of the first text box to a second text box. My macro code is below: ------------------ Sub CopyIntake_Present_Prob() End Sub ------------------ If the user of the form enters more than 256 characters, they receive Run-time error '4609' In researching a solution, I found some suggested code for resolving this error. The code is as follows: ActiveDocument.Unprotect I have tried including the code above in my original macro but have not been successful. If you agree that the above code is a viable solution, please advise how I should modify my original code to include the additional code. If you do not agree that the above code is a viable solution, what would you suggest? Thank you for your time. Mark |
| Using Word 2007 mail merge to create and email a pdf Posted: 27 Jun 2014 10:41 AM PDT We are trying to use Microsoft Office 2007 to create invoices and send them. We have created a template that references data in an excel file. We can use this to email a word doc to our clients that has their unique invoice. The problem is, we need that document to be a pdf file and not a word doc. Does anyone know if there is a free plugin that would allow us to send our invoices as a pdf instead of a word doc? |

| Frustrating Issue with Saving Documents to OneDrive, brand new computer...... Posted: 27 Jun 2014 09:47 AM PDT Ok so this is a brand new computer, with a fresh installation of Office 2013. A user goes to create a document. OneDrive is setup as the default save location for all new documents. I create a doc called "test", I then click File, Save AS, and then click on BROWSE to locate the save location. By the way, many times, on many different computers, there is often a hesitation here, that causes a NOT RESPONDING message at the top of the screen, before a few seconds go by and the SAVE DIALOG appears. (this happens to many users by the way, not an anomaly). So after some slight hesitation, at the top of the dialog save box, it says the location is: Web Sites > https://d.docs.live.net > 6aaaedfde94etcetc.... Can you imagine newbie type users, that are told to save stuff to the cloud being faced with this ridiculous save location? Yea, I KNOW that this is probably some dumb OneDrive pathname, but CAN YOU IMAGINE what a typical end user might think? It is instant frustration. It should say ONEDRIVE>DOCUMENTS for christs sake. Sorry to sound irritated, but this is usability 101. ANYWAY, on my particular case here, when I hit SAVE. It saves the document. I then close Word, and immediately go to the File Explorer, and look for the document. It's NOT THERE. I then go to Outlook.com and it IS THERE. I then go back to the File Explorer, and it's STILL NOT THERE. I have already right clicked the OneDrive folder way back when I setup the computer, and set all the files in OneDrive to appear offline. So to fix the problem, I have to right click the OneDrive folder an SYNC manually. Obviously this is unacceptable, and there must be some issue we can fix here. I hope someone can read this and identify with the issue. Little things like this lead to massive confusion for newbie type users. I speak for them because their frustration is unimaginable. Thanks... Please see image below for an example of the confounding pathname that users are faced with. JF |
| Can't print from Microsoft products Posted: 27 Jun 2014 09:26 AM PDT I've done a lot of searching, and found several similar issues, but none of the solutions provided have resolved my issue. I have a Win 7 Enterprise x64 box with Office 2010 on it. txt and pdf files print correctly, as do web page prints from Chrome. However printing from within Office, or IE, fails. There are no error messages, just nothing happens. It happens on two physical printers, the XPS and OneNote software printers, and when trying "Print to file" the resulting file is 0 kb. I have repaired Office; removed the printers and drivers (before we found it also applied to software printers) and reinstalled; run a windows SFC /SCANNOW to repair the system; tested the physical printers with other computers. Printers are a Dell and HP inkjet all in ones, computer is a Dell Latitude. |
| Adding a merge field to an email hyperlink in an email mailmerge Posted: 27 Jun 2014 09:24 AM PDT I am using word 2010, excel 2010, and outlook 2010 to send out the following email with email mailmerge to 50 + people. The highlighted names in the greeting are two merge fields - First_Name and Last_Name. The hyperlink is an email hyperlink to the following email message: Will you attend? ___ Yes ___ No The hyperlink is as follows: I would like to place the merge First_Name Last_Name in the hyperlink to sign the RSVP email back to me. I have tried many modifications of the hyperlink code and nothing works consistently. It will place one name as the signer but will not pick up the following names the merge fields. I would like the final email hyperlink to look like this: Will you attend? ___ Yes ___ No Jody Smith Can anyone tell me how to add the First_Name Last_Name to the hyperlink email so that each ricipient's name from the original email will appear in the hyperlink email as shown above? Thanks! Ben |
| Excel Cell Forms in Microsoft Word Posted: 27 Jun 2014 09:18 AM PDT I am working with a number of forms, created by someone else, which contain (what appear to be) Excel cells in them. These Excel cells provide information like the date, addressees, etc. These cells are not visible; I only know they're cells because they cause me all kinds of formatting difficulties and occasionally I see the spacing cell arrows indicative of Excel. I would like to know how these cells are made. I am familiar with inserting both tables and Excel spreadsheets into Word and these are unlike anything I have encountered before. |
| Insert and auto size pictures to table cell size Posted: 27 Jun 2014 08:53 AM PDT Is there any reasonably efficient way to insert and auto size multiple pictures to a table, each into its own cell? I have created a Word doc containing an empty table with a 2 row by 2 column of equal size cell table fit to the full page (ie, the page is divided into 4 equal size cells). I also have a directory containing 40 or so 7MB cell phone pictures. I would like to create a Word doc with 4 pics to a page, placing the pics one to a cell (across then down) in the order they appear in the directory. How do I insert a pic so that it is automatically resized to fit the existing cell size? (Every time I use the Word pic insert fcn or I drag and drop a pic to a cell, Word expands the cell size rather than fitting the pic to the existing cell.) How do I insert multiple pictures into adjacent cells in an across then down order, creating new document pages as needed? (Every time I try to insert multiple pics, it puts them all in the same column.) Could I do this better/easier if I were creating the doc in Excel? I'm using this to maintain a team scrapbook, adding a bunch of pics after each game. I'm hoping for a way to do this that is non labor intensive. I appreciate your help. |

| Arial Bold installed but Word is substituting it Posted: 27 Jun 2014 07:32 AM PDT System: Windows 7 64-bit, running Word 2010. I have Arial Bold installed as part of the Arial family. However, in Word 2010, the font doesn't show up in my list of fonts and according to File->Options->Advanced->Font Substitution is being substituting it with "Default". The weird part is it then says: "The default substitution for "Arial Bold" is "Arial Bold". Any ideas? Thanks, P. |

| Word 2013 Macros not working from ribbon. Posted: 27 Jun 2014 06:12 AM PDT New laptop (ASUS F550L) has Office 365 installed running on Windows 8.1 All seems to work OK. I use macros and on this machine these can be called from macro dialogue box,or if assigned to hot-keys they work. However they WILL NOT operate from the ribbon. Microsoft re-seller suggested to use Office 2013. Office 365 fully cleaned off, and Office 2013 installed. As I expected same problem occurs.
Looking at other questions on this site I have re-started from safe mode, turned off graphics accelerator (latter done from within Word settings as Windows control panel does not have facility for this on this PC. Any suggestions on how to get macros working from ribbon? |

| Styles - bullets formatting differently in different version Posted: 27 Jun 2014 04:35 AM PDT Hi there, I've just created new styles in Word 2010 following this guide http://shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/numbering20072010.html The bullets are blue whereas the text is black and it's formatted to go a) *sub-bullet 1 indent* 1) *sub-bullet 2 indent x 2* i) And it works perfectly.

Thanks! |
| Translate into Tigrinya ( ትግርኛ ) Posted: 27 Jun 2014 04:08 AM PDT Hi, I would like to be able to translate text into Tigrinya ( ትግርኛ ). But that option isn't available in Word Translate. I can find it in the Language Pack Downloads, but will this just give the option to type/edit/spellcheck in that language, or will it now be available to translate to it with the Language Pack? Thanks. |
| VBA code to access words ignored in current document during spellcheck? Posted: 27 Jun 2014 01:43 AM PDT (Windows 8.1, Office 2013)
Is there any way to access the list of words that have been ignored in the current document during a spell check in Microsoft Word?
I'm working on a group of documents with many names, part numbers, code numbers, etc. that are marked wrong by the spell-checker.
It would be nice, when I finished checking one document, to take that list of ignored words with me and somehow "install" it in the second document, so those ignored terms will also be ignored while checking the next document. I thought that it might be stored in the attributes for the current document and accessible via a VBA object.
Most of these terms will only be used once in this job (but in more than one document), so I don't want to add them to a new spelling dictionary. Plus it's inconvenient to change the dictionary where a new word is to be added, on the fly. (If that worked better then this wouldn't be needed.)
Thanks for any suggestions.
P.S. While looking online, I found this macro which might be helpful to other spelling geeks:
Sub OldStyleSpellcheck() ' OldStyleSpellcheck Macro ' This macro open the old (2010) style Spelling and Grammar window Application.Dialogs(wdDialogToolsSpellingAndGrammar).Show End Sub
It's described here:

| Find & Replace - Word 2003 Windows XP Posted: 27 Jun 2014 01:08 AM PDT Hi, We have approx. 2,000 letter templates that currently have a particular signature image, name and job title included in them. This person is leaving our company and the details need to change; manually changing a signature image and 2 lines of text in that many documents is not really a good option, and I woud prefer to replace them with an 'INSERTTEXT' function so that if someone new comes again, we just have to change one document to update all the others. The question is, is there a macro or other function that can make this change? Ideally, I need to know how to remove the existing details and replace with the INSERTTEXT function, and how to physically replace the image and text in the event that our document generation system doesn't like the function. All of the documents are in the same folder as far as I know so it shouldn't have to search too many locations if that helps. Thanks. |

| Word 2010 and Word 2013 crashes unexpectedly Posted: 27 Jun 2014 12:26 AM PDT MS Office Word 2013 crashes unexpectedly in Windows 7. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro installed. I am having this problem since more than a month and having hard time with Word.
The problem first started in Word 2010 in windows 7. Word was giving out of memory error, file permission error, too many files are open error, word encountered a problem error in different times without no reason. And I was loosing unsaved changes. Sometimes word freezes. Buttons and letters messed up on the screen. Sometimes sandglass appears and word windows becomes frozen white. For a solution Office 2013 and Windows 8 installed, ram upgraded, hard disk upgraded. Acrobat extension in word is disabled. Most of the time one great change is word was not closed automatically after an error appears. Nothing really changed. So, I returned to win7 and word2013 combination again. Now, when I open a docx file which is previously saved in Office 2010. Word opens the file in compatible mode. The random errors continuing and corrupting my work. I noticed that when most of the errors come on one of my files are in compatible mode. I open 3-5 word documents at a time. And copy-paste information between them. If I have problem in all of my word documents (I dont think so) I need solution like "open and repair" and "convert to 2013 file". Any help will be appreciated.

| Word: Copy-Paste Function Not Possible; Issue with Visual Basic?

| VBA code to return to a specific location in a document Posted: 26 Jun 2014 05:26 PM PDT Hello, Thanks to the assistance of others here on this site, I have a macro that performs a spell check on a specific section of a locked form. When the spell check is complete, the cursor is taken away from the section that was spell checked and is moved to the top of the document. I am attempting to add code to the spell checking code that will return the cursor to the section that was just spell checked. I am attempting to do it via bookmarks. The code creates a temporary bookmark that is intended to assist in navigating back to the created bookmark once the spell checking process is complete. (NOTE - The bookmark cannot be created ahead of time as the sections that are spell checked are created as needed by the users via other macros.) Unfortunately, even with the bookmark creation code, once spell checking is complete, the cursor is still returned to the beginning of the document. Is there something wrong with my code OR is there a better way in achieving my goal of staying in the section that was just spell checked. Thank you for any assistanc that you can offer. My code is displayed below: Sub SpellCheckProgressNote() 'Spell Checks the current Progress Note pages Dim i As Long, Rng As Range |
| How can I specify which paragraph styles should be part of the TOC? Posted: 26 Jun 2014 04:58 PM PDT I've written a book of about 300 pages, and I'd like to generate a TOC for it. All the information I can find on the web tells me how to do this based on the built-in paragraph style names Heading1, Heading2, etc. These names are meaningless for my document, however, so I wrote it using paragraph names that makes sense for what I'm doing, e.g., "Unnumbered Chapter", "Chapter", "Guideline", etc. I've also assigned Outline levels to these styles so that they are organized correctly in the Navigation Pane. I'd assumed that to generate a TOC, all I'd have to do would be to tell Word which paragraph styles to include, and it would use the outline levels I'd already assigned to structure the TOC. But at this point, I can't even figure out how to tell Word which paragraph styles correspond to text that should be in the TOC. Help? |
| Posted: 26 Jun 2014 04:49 PM PDT I recently had this computer updated from Windows XP to Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit by my tech guy. Document files I had saved in the "recent Files" on XP are playing hard to find with the windows 7 system. I found a path to retrieve one or two the other day, now that pathway has disappeared. For a short time the new "Recent Files" was being populated by a list of those files, but it just stopped. The "recent Files" folder now only has the most recent files that I opened while searching for the missing file cache. I need to access those files to complete billing and other reference tasks. Any suggestions? I'm totally confused. Thanks, Garry |
| Unusual text boxes in document Posted: 26 Jun 2014 04:37 PM PDT This is sort of hard to explain but here goes: I own a copy of Office 2010, Adobe Acrobat X Pro and Readiris Pro 14. I have my resume on my states ( Pennsylvania ) job search web site. The web site will let you download a copy of your resume to either a .docx or .pdf file ( or both if you choose ). I've downloaded both file types. What I've come across is: The Word document has what I consider to be "text boxes" but they don't seem to be like the kind you can manually insert from Words ribbon. Even if I "save as" from the Acrobat pdf copy using the function in Acrobat TO a Word copy OR I convert the Acrobat pdf THROUGH Readiris Pro 14 ( OCR software ) to a Word docx, there are basically text boxes around each line of text on the resume. Another way I can explain them is, they're sort of like a whole bunch of individual tables that only have one row and one column. Does anyone know why this document is doing this AND another question is, How do I get rid of them? I want to get all the text with it's formatting, if possible, directly on the sheet, not in textbox or table type format. Help! Any ideas are appreciated. Thank you. Jeff ( Told you it was hard to explain, lol ) P.S. I'm using my computer which is running Windows 8.1 but I also have a computer running Windows 7 which has a copy I own of Office 2007 on it and it does the same thing. |
