Microsoft Word - Office 2003


Office 2003

Posted: 11 Jul 2014 02:37 PM PDT

I have a later version of office on my computer but am loathe to use it.  The status bar at the bottom of my word documents have a greyed out bar for Page Sec Line Col etc.  I have gone to help, followed the directions and gone to "options", chosen "view", checked "status bar" and it is still greyed out and empty.  I really love this feature.  Any suggestions?

Captions in Word

Posted: 11 Jul 2014 01:40 PM PDT

It would be very nice if in inserting a Cross Reference for a Caption of a Figure or Table in a Word doc one could select an option of "Only number". The closest match is the option "Only label and number". But that is not good enough. For example, instead of writing "... as shown in Figures 3 and 4...", if one wants to use cross references has to write awkwardly "...as shown in Figure 3 and in Figure 4..." because the option of "Only number" is not available in cross referencing.

Lost Features from a Word 2007 Template

Posted: 11 Jul 2014 11:26 AM PDT

We have a template, archived in SharePoint (SharePoint Server 2010).  The Word version is Word 2007 on a Windows XP platform.  Each user uses the template from the C:\ disc drive, Templates folder.  The SharePoint archive is just for people to be able to download it to their PC.

The template has 6 custom covers pages.  Unfortunately, all but one cover page keeps mysteriously disappearing from the archived version.  I can not figure out what is going on, is it SharePoint, Windows, or Word, or the unholy alliance that is at the root of this problem. 

None of us has the technical skills to determin the cause.

Thanks for any help.

How do you select a picture and replace it by pasting a picture in the clipboard and ensure picture size (footprint in document) is unchanged

Posted: 11 Jul 2014 10:48 AM PDT

I've seen this question a few times and wanted to provide a simple VBA solution.

1. Copy the replacement picture from another location in the document or other source.

2. Select the picture you want to replace.

Run this code:

Sub ReplacePictureWithClipboarPicture()
Dim oILS As InlineShape
Dim LngW As Long
If Selection.Type = wdSelectionInlineShape Then
  Set oILS = Selection.InlineShapes(1)
  LngW = oILS.Width
  oILS.Delete
  Selection.Range.Paste
  Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend
  If Selection.Type = wdSelectionInlineShape Then
    Set oILS = Selection.InlineShapes(1)
    With oILS
      .LockAspectRatio = True
      .Width = LngW
    End With
  Else
    ActiveDocument.Undo (3)
    MsgBox "Operation canceled and reversed.  The content of the clipboard was not a inline shape image."
  End If
Else
  MsgBox "Please select the image to replace and try again.  The image must be an inline shape image."
End If
End Sub

See: http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/word_tip_pages/installing_employing_macros.html for instructions to employ the VBA code provided above.

Feeding information from Microsoft Excel 2007 into variables in a Microsoft Word 2007 Document

Posted: 11 Jul 2014 10:33 AM PDT

Hello,

I have created a template in Microsoft Word 2007 that contains ~50 variables.  The rest (90%) of the document is static.

I have a Microsoft Excel 2007 spreadsheet that lists the name of the variable (ex. "#A") in column A and the information to be held by that variable (ex. "NAME of client)" in column B.

I have been doing a Find & Replace for each individual variable within the Word document while using my spreadsheet as a reference for what information belongs in each variable.

My question is this:


If I were to enter the specific information I would like to add to my Word Template (ex. "JOHN A. DOE") into column C of my spreadsheet, is there a way I could transfer those ~50 pieces of information directly into my Word document all at once, thus saving me the time of doing a Find & Replace for each individual variable?

I hope that my question makes sense.  Please let me know if I can clarify further.

Thank you in advance if you are willing to offer any help!

Problem with inserting pdf into word 2013

Posted: 11 Jul 2014 07:52 AM PDT

I have a problem with my Microsoft office word 2013 (or maybe with adobe) .

Each time I insert a pdf file into word document , first what happens is that the program (mo word) gets really slow to navigate and edit and beside that the quality of the inserted pdf is low and not very clear . Third issue is that when I save the document (with the pdf in it) , its size is very big and not easy to opperate . Same thing happens when I convert that word document into pdf file - the size is huge .

BUT , when I save that document into word 97-2003 document , all above mentioned problems disappear : word is not slow any more , quality of the pdf is now ok , and the size is normal ...

So , is there any way to skip converting word 2013 file into word 97-2003 ? Is it possible to insert the pdf in 2013 document without having these problems ? IS THERE ANY FIX FOR THIS ?

Thanks in advance !!!

macros not working in Word 2013

Posted: 11 Jul 2014 06:38 AM PDT

My macros disappeared.  This may be due to the corruption of the Normal file following a problematic shut down.   

I've tried recreating the macros.    However, none of these new macros are working.  The keystroke commands I've established yield no response.  Choosing "run" in View Macro interface does nothing. 

I'm running Windows 8 with the Classic View (so it looks like Windows 7).

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Email Mail Merge and hyperlinks

Posted: 10 Jul 2014 11:39 PM PDT

I am sending a newsletter to clients using Word 2013 email mail merge.  I have included several hyperlinks in the content of the newsletter.  These are not from the data source, they are simply hyperlinks that have been manually entered to text content in the newsletter.

When clients receive the newsletter, some hyperlinks are broken because the URL has been changed in some way.  For example I had some text that pointed to http://www.microsoft.com and when the clients received it the URL had been changed to http://www.microsoft..com.  an extra period had been added.

Other hyperlinks were fine and had not changed.  This has happened on multiple newsletters.

Is this an SMTP corruption?  Is there anything that can prevent it?

Thanks.

Word won't save files -URGENT -IMPORTANT

Posted: 10 Jul 2014 04:03 PM PDT

Word is not saving my files, or to put more accurately, is stuck saving my files. At the bottom of each document, there's a msg saying:

Word is saving "filename.docx"

I noticed this at 3:30 pm after working on several related Word docs all day.I get the same results when trying to save other files,msg saying 

Word is saving "otherfilename.docx" that just hangs there.

I go into Explorer and see the last file saved was 4 hours ago, at 11:30 am. I will lose 4 hours of work if I can't get Save to work. I tried saving files as .doc instead of .docx. No luck.  I tried saving to different space on my PC. Same results. 

How can I save these files??? 

And why didn't I get any error msg when I saved or when auto-saved tried to save and it didn't work??
