Removing all line breaks in a document

Posted: 28 Jun 2014 02:40 PM PDT

I was recently sent a 500 page document to edit.  For some reason there are two line breaks between every single paragraph.  These are the ones created by using shift + enter.  If I check under line spacing for the document I can add a line before and after each paragraph but I can't remove them since they're not actually there.  Is there any way at all to select all of these and delete them at one time instead of going through the entire document page by page?  I working in Office 2007 Word.

Mail merge from excel file that contains multiple records - merge into a form to be printed.

Posted: 28 Jun 2014 12:41 PM PDT

Hi - I have an excel document that is a report run from our student database.  The report pulls all student information that we have on record.  However, if a student has two parents listed the report automatically creates a duplicate record for that student putting each parent and their respective data on a new row.  Therefore each student "ID" can have multiple records.

What I need to do is a mail merge to a student information form that needs to be printed out and given to students when they come for orientation so they can review what we have on file and write in any necessary changes.  How it is set up now, if i just do a simple mail merge into the form (created in word) I will get duplicate forms for each student (90% have at least two parents on file).  

How can I do a mail merge that will only pull the student data once but will look at two (or more) rows for the same student ID and pull in multiple different parent name / info??

Any advice / guidance is welcome.  Thank you!


MS Word "AutoFormat As You Type" randomly works or does not work

Posted: 28 Jun 2014 08:49 AM PDT

I know how to set the AutoFormat and AutoFormat As You Type checkbox options through AutoCorrect Options. The problem is that my AutoFormat As You Type selections are sometimes applied as I type and sometimes not, with no discernible pattern. I notice this especially with smart quotes and apostrophes. This has been happening since I used Word 2002 and still happens in Word 2010. It happens both on my old desktop with both of these versions of Word, and on my new laptop with a fresh installation of Word 2010 only. Why would AutoFormat work only some of the time when I have it turned on? It suddenly stops working for no apparent reason, I can only get smart quotes or apostrophes to reappear by physically copying and pasting them from earlier in the document, and as I keep typing, it may or may not turn itself back on.

Cannot add functioning macro button to Toolbar

Posted: 28 Jun 2014 08:41 AM PDT

Windows 7 Professional, Word 2013.  I successfully "migrated" 7 macros from my old XP template and can run the macros from the View|Macros Ribbon. However, when I place a button in the Quick Access Toolbar for any macro other that the first one in the list, the button will run the first macro only, even though it is not represented on the toolbar.  Is this a bug?  Is the Quick Access Toolbar customization limited to only the first macro?  I can put buttons for macros 2 - 7 and they will only run macro #1!

Set "Multiple Page View" as Default View for All Documents?

Posted: 27 Jun 2014 11:17 PM PDT

Hi guys!

This seems to be an annoying development in Word 2013: 

I have a 2560 x 1440 monitor, and I really appreciate the extra viewing space when working on documents. In the past, when I would open a multi-page document, Word would automatically line up two or three pages horizontally so that I could easy look through the entire document - or zoom into individual pages.

In 2013 I always have to click > View > Multiple Pages to do this - something I find very annoying.

Is there any way to make the multiple page view my default? I don't see any options that would let me do this, but maybe I can do it with a macro ...

How do I display Maths equations created in Microsoft Word (2010 SP2) to blogging site

Posted: 27 Jun 2014 07:57 PM PDT

Hi,

I have created a sample Maths equations in Microsoft Word  (32bit Office 2010 SP2) and it displays corrected in my computer. I uploaded the file in onedrive and the instead of displaying the equations it displayed as [equation] . I try to publish on the wordpress from Microsoft word via File -> Save & Send -> Publish as a Blog Post -> but it didn't display the equations on the word press site. Is there any way I can display the equations on the web correctly? Thanks in advance.

Fonts in Word Doc

Hyperlink Macro

Posted: 27 Jun 2014 05:33 PM PDT

I was trying to record a macro in word 2013 that would automatically insert a copied hyperlink into selected text on click of a button.

The ideal operation would be:

  1. Copy hyperlink from browser.
  2. Select text in Word
  3. Click macro button to insert copied hyperlink

Essentially, what I'm trying to do is reduce "Ctrl+K - Ctrl+V - Enter" to a button.  The macro recorded as follows:

Sub Hyperlink()

'
' Hyperlink Macro
'
'
Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=5, Extend:=wdExtend
ActiveDocument.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection.Range, Address:= _
"http://www.greenoptimistic.

" _
, SubAddress:="", ScreenTip:="", TextToDisplay:="test"
End Sub

I attempted to record the macro after selecting some random text, but all it does when I try to run the macro is use the original information from when I recorded the macro.


I hope my question makes sense. Thanks ahead for your answers.

Opening downloaded free resume from MS Office online .docx file in 2003 office?

Posted: 27 Jun 2014 05:05 PM PDT

XP Pro, sp3, Office suite 2000 with upgrade to 2003. I have all the XP updates to date and office service packs 2003. I thought Office 2003 Standard edition had resume templates in the program but I searched and nothing comes up but it lists a online link.

I went there (Office online) and downloaded a free resume but it's a .docx file.  Can't open it. What's up?

Add Fax Face Sheet to Locked Document

Posted: 27 Jun 2014 03:57 PM PDT

We've just set up our printer as a fax machine so I can fax from my computer now and save trees.  Yeay!  So, now I want to fax from my computer but what I want to fax is a locked Word document, which isn't the problem.  We need to fax with a  fax cover sheet.  The machine allows us to insert a cover sheet which the machine produces but it sucks so we want to use our own, which we also have in a word document but I can't figure out a way of adding the coversheet to the locked document so I can fax the whole thing together in one fax.  (Yeah, I do have the password to unlock the document but all my colleagues don't--and I ain't given it to em either!  :-)  )  So my question is:  Is there a way to add a Fax Facesheet to a Locked Document? 

Thank you,

Dax

Tab problems with Word 2010

Posted: 27 Jun 2014 12:22 PM PDT

<moved from Windows 7 > Windows Update and non-relevant replies deleted>

I am creating page numbers for a Table of Contents, the numbers being set to the right of the page. 

To ensure that the numbers are in a uniform column, I set the Right Indent Default setting set at 0 cm 'For this document only'.

I then create the required page number on the line where it is to be placed and use the Space Bar to move it across the page to the Right.  To make sure that it is correctly placed I 'overshoot'  the number so that it goes onto the next line down.  I then use the backspace arrow key to bring the number back up onto the correct line and into position.  

HOWEVER at this point one of two things happens.

Either the number automatically positions itself at a Right Alignment setting of -0.04 cm  or -0.08 cm  (this despite the default being set at 0.0 cm default); or the it  repositions itself so that it is one space to the left of the number immediately above it (as below):

       571                                                                              

      572

Once this 'repositioning'  has occurred, the only way to bring the second (lower) number into line with the one above it is to move the Right Indent 'Pin'  on the menu bar to the right and use the space bar to nudge the errant number into line with the one above it.


My questions are therefore:

Why does the Indent Spacing alter despite being set as default for the document?

Why do some, but not all, numbers reposition themselves one space to the left and resist efforts to place them in conformity with those above and below them?

There is no doubt a very simple solution to this problem,so any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Set SCL value

Posted: 06 Feb 2007 08:01 AM PST

I agree with Alexander that this would not be very practical. The SCL value
has to be assigned by a trusted source. Hold on, I'm getting a feed from
my implant: That is what the Exchange 2007 Edge Transport server will do
for you! Seriously, though, you Edge Transport will do that for you. It
is also possible that there are some 3rd party products and services that
will do that for you at a hosted service provider or via an appliance in
your DMZ. I'm not sure what the actual deployment details would be, though.
I am pretty sure for E2K3 that the SCL value has to be passed in a trusted
source, this means an E2K3 bridgehead server.

How can I restore someone's deleted contacts?

Posted: 06 Feb 2007 07:23 AM PST

OK, I figured out that problem, I had to actually take the running/production
Information Store db offline (unmount). So I got that to work.

The next step is to defrag that db, but I'm running low on drive space on
the C: drive (2.5GB free) and it gets about 16% through the defrag process
and aborts because of low disk space. Is there anyway to have it put its
temp defrag files on another drive?

Something blocking OWA from working.

Posted: 05 Feb 2007 01:36 PM PST

 


We are trying to access the outlook web mail from outside the
organization.
This computer is a windows 2003 server with exchange 2003 on it.
Inside the organization it works fine. We can access mail via exchange
and via the web eg we type in http://10.1.0.2/exchange and we get the
password box and mail.

However we we try to access it through a router that is directly
connect to the DMZ and to a second port on the computer it does not
work.

eg DMZ --> Router --> Nic2 ---Win2003/Exchange Server.

To try to make things simple to just see if we could simply get to the
server we stopped iis and the owa and put in a little web program on
the Win2003 server. Just to see if we could access it on this machine,
but we cant.
In testing our rourter configuration we have put this same web program
on a laptop and set it up in the following way
DMZ --> Router --> Nic ---Laptop (with web server program).

This WORKS. But when we swap out the laptop and plug in the Win2003/
Exchange Server it does not. Its like there is something on this
computer that is preventing it from working.

Corrupt Information Store (Exchange 2003)

Perhaps related, but I have an additional issue.

For the last few nights (well 3 of 5), users have lost connectivity to the
Exchange server. On the server itself, all services are running and there
are absolutely no errors in the Event Viewer that are unusual. All users are
affected by this and a restart pf the server is the only thing I've found to
resolve it.

Please advise.

General, if somewhat aging, advice on Debian printer setup:

First stop for any printer driver issue on Linux should be

lets you know what are the recommended filters ("drivers") for
just about any printer.

(FYI, when you're asking for Linux help about a piece of hardware,
please use the _complete and correct_ name for that hardware -- since
your helpers may need to search on it. You did not do so.)

For the HP DeskJet 3535, you reach this detail page:
http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-DeskJet_3535

Please note that it recommends, not surprisingly, the hpijs filter
("driver") as your overall best choice -- or its "HPLIP" superset.

I note, in searching the packages.debian.org engine, that Debian has
packages "hplip" and "hplip-data" -- and that the notes say you need
package "hpoj" (primarily intended for HP OfficeJets; thus the name),
instead, for parallel-port models as opposed to USB or JetDirect.
You'll probably need to also request packages "hpijs",
"foomatic-filters", and "foomatic-filters-ppds" -- in addition to what
my article (above) mentions.

440bytes of 512 and leaves the 64 bytes of the MPT untouched) -- or the
_preferred_ (in this case) XPoop's version 'FIXMBR' will rewrite the
MBR. NTFS (as opposed to win98's FAT16/32) uses the usually mostly
unused 8 bytes (the leftovers) to mark(ID) the MBR as it's own.

Googling those other 2 commands should yield a wealth of information
about their uses.

Another thing I recall when messing with XPoop's RC -- the XP CDROMs
contents (atleast in the i386 Dir) are compressed files with names like
NTDETECT.CO_ ,so decompressing them into their proper name is necessary
if trying to replace those files (originally found in root C:\). Win98
uses the "extract" command when doing this, whereas winXPoop uses the
"Expand" command.

I've had the displeasure to endevour on such a journey once or twice ..
I forget if the 'Expand' command is needed (instead of 'copy' as
outlined in the link) , or if RC already knows (assumes) this, and does
the expansion on it's own (perhaps the CDROMs version of 'Copy' invokes
expansion ?), but I don't think I recall it that way when I did it.

Well -- so much for my limited XPoop exp ;-)
Just wanted to point out some possible mis-steps that may occur if you
link to that particular site.

Installing Linux on Vaio PCG-SR7K

Stop with the DVD's, serously. Use the CD's: they're just as easy to burn,

I've installed Vaio's before, and it can be a bit of an adventure to get all
the drivers into the base installer: working from CD is more reliable.

Calling a partition "/swap" does not make it a virtual memory paging area.

So if OP posts 'ls /swap', 'cat /proc/swaps', 'cat /etc/fstab' and
'fdisk -l' we might see what's going on in there.

Performance loss by using swapfile isn't that much. File or partition,
the drive head still needs to seek to the swap area.

With a swap partition there's no filesystem layer (directory) to follow,
making a separate partition a little faster.

Cheers,
Grant.

It's kind of wierd. I ran the Ubuntu on the same system and it was

resolved my issue. I'm not going to worry about it.

If so i am trying to open it with Access 97....

Resource allocation question: Changing percentage from month to month?

Posted: 02 Aug 2005 01:36 PM PDT

Hi Sergio,

In fact, in the work that I do, I have to do this all the time. It's a pain
but the only way that I can see.
The only other option is to put the same task on 2 lines - one for September
1st to September 30th at 70% allocation and the other from October 1st to
October 31st at 45% allocation. But this means that your task is running over
2 lines - something you may not want.

On top of Sarah's advice, in 2002/2003 you can select the header and move

Task Usage / % Complete representation

Hi Rod,

Thanks for the reply. The task usage method doesn't seem to work but the
alternative approach appears to do the trick.

Thanks,

A repeated subset of Tasks

Posted: 02 Aug 2005 02:40 AM PDT

There isn't unless you use VBA. Another approach though is to have the
duplicated set of tasks as a task list in Excel and only one task in Project
to represent the whole set. Simpler, quicker to schedule and the resources
still get a detailed task list.

You would click Tools | Macro | Visual Basic Editor

Then you would double click on the "This Project" node in the tree

Then paste the code in the window on the right.

Then Close the editor and save the project.

Then click Tools | macro | macros

Then find the "New Rates" macro in the list. Select it and click Run and
it will calculate your rates for you
