| Word Count in Columns in Word 2013 tables Posted: 28 Jul 2014 01:34 PM PDT I need to get the word count for a specific column in a table. Have tried highlighting/selecting the column and going to word count, but I always get the total amount of words in the whole document. Selecting the column for word count used to work in Word 2007. The only way I get a different number is to select a few words in a cell. Thanks! |
| Unable to save Word files larger than 32MB Posted: 28 Jul 2014 01:16 PM PDT I have the home version of MS Word that came on my laptop and have two very large documents, a manual and technical training course material, that will not save when they got over 32MB - with no warning that they would not be saved. In the past I have always used the Office version at work in which I know I have created documents that are 60MB to 80MB which were all several hundred pages each. Why is there a limitation of the home version of MS Word and what is the limit of the version I use that a corporation get a license to use? Is there a limitation of the corporate version, and what is it if there is? It's infuriating to put a lot of work into a document to find out that it won't save the document - or any changes past a certain point. So far I have had to split the manual and the training course into two documents, but that's not very helpful because of the numbering on the graphics that are in there (the home version will not allow you to start numbering graphics at anything but 1, and that's a problem with the second part of the material, I don't want the graphics starting with number 1, they need to be somewhere around 56.) What's the real deal between these two versions of Word? Original title: Large files in MS Word Moved from Community Participation Center |

| Expand/Collapse Rows of a Table for a dynamic Table of Contents Posted: 28 Jul 2014 11:58 AM PDT I have a very long table of contents and would like to be able to collapse all of the sections and expand them as the user needs to.

| How to change fonts? Posted: 28 Jul 2014 11:18 AM PDT How can I stop Word from adopting the fonts that are different every time I try to do something with it? Not to change the font but to stop Word from adopting the font. Is there a way I can highlight a text in all caps and turn it into small letters? Philosophically-how can things be so advanced and we cannot see these annoying features go away? Oh sure, how great is Microsoft until you see It takes more time from your life because it now takes longer to do stuff all under the auspices I cannot find anything on my computer despite never having this problem-ever. If I could not find it-this means it is no longer there. What is Action Center? Action Center is a central place to view alerts and take actions that can help keep Windows running smoothly.

| Reference Check Boxes in a Formula Posted: 28 Jul 2014 10:41 AM PDT I am creating Word documents to use in an office setting so that my employees can fill out certain areas of the form which would then calculate costs and other job related numbers. I am looking to reference a check box in a formula, but am unsure if it is possible to do so. If it is, how does Word represent the status of the check box? I.e. 1/0, true/false, etc. Further, is it possible to then assign the check box a bookmark and reference the status of the check box in a conditional statement such as =NOT(x) or =AND(x)? Thank you in advance! Stern |
| Table Cell Word Macro Posted: 28 Jul 2014 10:24 AM PDT I am currently having a problem with a macro that I have. I do not want the macro to apply to the header rows (2) of them in my tables. The macro that I have is: Dim t As Table
Dim c As Cell
Dim s As String
Dim i As Integer
ActiveDocument.TrackRevisions = False 'disable change tracking since it causes pasting problems
For Each t In ActiveDocument.Tables 'loop through all tables in the document
For Each c In t.Range.Cells
s = c.Range 'grab the text from the cell
s = Left(s, Len(s) - 2) 'remove cell spacing and formatting to get just the text
If (s = "") Then 'check for empty cell
c.Borders(wdBorderTop).LineStyle = wdLineStyleNone
End If
Next c
Next t The macro does exactly what I want. The only problem is that it does not exclude the header rows. Thank you in advance for any help. |
| In Word 2013, how can I get the text effects that used to exist? Posted: 28 Jul 2014 09:52 AM PDT In Word 2013, does anyone know how to get the non-printing text effects that Word used to have? For example, there was a blinking background, marching red ants, marching black ants, Las Vegas lights, shimmer, and sparkle text. I have tried the following (for the blinking background effect), but it does not seem to work any more since upgrading from Word 2010: Selection.Font.Animation = wdAnimationBlinkingBackground Does anyone know how to get these effects in Word 2013--they were so helpful to alert me to changes that needed to be made in a document (e.g., a syllabus) from one year to the next without having anything show up in the printed document. |

| Simple Question on Headers and Footers Posted: 28 Jul 2014 09:02 AM PDT This is probably a very easy fix, but have been having problems with it. I have created a document with a header and the header continues to go onto a second page, even though there is no need for a second page. How do I delete that header on the second page so I can have a one page document? I have edited the header and deleted it, but then it deletes the header on page one too. Thanks! |

| Form Fields in Word 2013 Doubling Results Posted: 28 Jul 2014 07:18 AM PDT Hello, I am attempting to create a word document with form fields that will allow the workers in my office to fill in the form and have pricing and other numbers calculate automatically. I have created the document with the fields and have added formulas to those fields that need them. However, when the formula fields calculate the numbers end up being doubled. I am using bookmarks in these formulas to reference other parts of the document (fields that were manually filled in as well as some fields that have formulas in them as well). My guess is that by using those bookmarks in formulas, I am referencing the result from the bookmarked field as well as the formula entered in that bookmarked field, so that is why I am getting results that are doubled. Can this be confirmed? Or is there another problem I might be having that I am unaware of? Thanks Stern |
| Copying from Excel to Word Posted: 28 Jul 2014 07:10 AM PDT When I copy and paste a range from Excel to Word, I have to be careful. If the Excel range is too wide, it disappears off the right side of the Word document, and (working in Word) I am unable to get at the right side to pull it onto the document. So far, I've gotten around it by first making the columns very narrow in Escel before I copy to Word. There has to be a better way to get at that right-hand border of the table in Word after the cells have been copied from Excel. Any suggestions on how to do that? |

| Where to find Alphabet Quote text box? Posted: 28 Jul 2014 06:37 AM PDT I'm hoping somebody can help me with this! I have just bought the latest version of Office and am required to use and Alphabet Quote text box for an assignment (drawing my own custom text box will not be good enough unfortunately). I cannot find it listed under the text box styles and there is apparently nobody else with the Windows version of Office that has had this issue because I can't find any help online. Does anybody know where I might be able to find it? This is driving me nuts! Thanks in advance. EDIT: I have just read a little further in my assignment and I am also required to use the text box types Conservative Quote and Puzzle Quote, neither of which appear on the list of available types either! |

| Office won't close properly Posted: 28 Jul 2014 04:51 AM PDT Whenever I use word or excel, it will open and run properly, but as soon as I go to close the document it lags, and says program not responding. I will have to tell it to either quit, restart, or wait for it to respond. When it does open again, it gives me files I saved before closing like it closed due to an error rather than me closing the program out. I have checked for any updates and do not need any, and I have a current antivirus software installed. Any advice?? The only thing I can think of is uninstalling and re-installing, but don't want to do this unless I have to. |
| MailMerge autocorrects the field name Posted: 28 Jul 2014 03:06 AM PDT Hello,
I am changing the template of an already-existing mail merge document by adding a new field called «Free_item».
My Excel recipient list will not always contain the field «Free_item». In this case, when I mail merge, Word automatically detects that this field is missing and it corrects it to the closest field name, for instance «Height». What can I do to prevent the auto-correction?
Many thanks in advance,
Victoria
