Microsoft Word - Strange behavior on word form goto command buttons

Microsoft Word - Strange behavior on word form goto command buttons

Strange behavior on word form goto command buttons

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 01:19 PM PDT

I have a Word form (Link to Document) that contains a variety of FORMTEXT fields, and button to update all of the REF fields that are further down in the document. These fields pull selected data from the form fields to display it for different users. The first page of the document contains command buttons for "jumping" to different section of the document (using Selection.goto). This document was originally created in Word 2010, then converted to 2013.

In Word 2010, the document works just as expected, but after opening the document in 2013 and clicking on any one of these buttons, something seems to break. After clicking on one of the "jump" buttons, the cursor moves to the specified section of the document. If I scroll up to the top, all of the other buttons simply become selected when clicked. It is almost as if it is in design mode (although double-clicking does not go to the VBA code). After banging my head into the wall for hours, and doing an exhaustive internet search, I did discover that if I toggle Design Mode on, then off, at this point, any one of the other buttons becomes click-able and jumps the corresponding section as expected, but again, if I scroll up, the buttons are no longer working.

On the same page as the "jump" buttons (in fact, in adjacent cells in a table) are buttons to print the corresponding sections. These buttons work as they always did without needing to toggle design mode. However, if one of the jump buttons is clicked first, then the print buttons become dead.

It should be noted that the button to update the fields works just fine.

Using both an image and a text box in a quick part?

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 01:00 PM PDT

I'm working on Word creating templates for an organisation. I'm using Office 2007 (although I think it will go onto a system using 2010).

I want to be able to make a quick part that includes both an image and a text box (caption) and that gets inserted at particular co-ordinates on the page. This I can do: I put the elements in a drawing canvas in the right place, saved it as a quick part and, yep, works OK. Except for one thing.

The point is for other users to be able to change my image for their own. Now, if I just make a quick part from a single image, the user can right-click and change it. But put together with a text box, this doesn't seem possible. Is there a way to do it, does anyone know?

MS Word 2010 freeze when I type a linefeed (Enter)

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 12:32 PM PDT

Hi,

There is a problem that have been affecting Word starter in my computer since the last few days:

Whenever I edit a document (existing or new), Word become unresponsive and grayed out every time I type Enter after or before any letters of the text. In others words, when I type only linefeeds or only letters everything is OK, but if one letter is in the text when I type Enter, everything freezes in the next second or so. Also, I can type normally on any line if there are more than one, but Word is going to freeze when I click on another one. Nothing abnormal is happening when automatic linefeed are generated from typing until the end of a line.

The question is, what is happening and how could this be fixed?

Thanks to anyone willing to save my life.

Office 2010 Starter Edition

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 11:42 AM PDT

I received a new Hard drive recently from after my old one crashed. I installed MS Office 2007 after installing / setting up my new hard drive not knowing MS 2010 Starter was there.

I find that MS 2010 Starter "interferes" when I am working on Office 2007. can I disable MS 2010 Starter so that I can work solely on MS Office 2007 (which I like and prefer), or, do I have to delete MS 2010 Starter. If I have to delete, can I reinstall OK at a later date. I am frustrated when I am working on an existing 2007 document either Word or Excel the document appears to "switch" over to MS 2010 Starter

Microsoft Word 2010 is saving filenames with the full path as the filename.

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 10:27 AM PDT

Good Afternoon,

When opening a file from a synology cloudstation, after I work on the file and select save, the file name changes to include the computer name. For example if the file was opened from "Favorites\Couldstation\My Documents" and was called "Consoto version1", when I click save, the filename now shows as " Consoto Version 1_Mycomputer-PC_AUG-06-1203-2014_Conflict.docx" (Mycomputer is the generic name of the computer on the domain, Italics was what was added)

Any way I can turn this off? I am thinking it is part of an Autosave feature.

High contrast/ Office compatibility

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 09:22 AM PDT

I just switched to a high contrast theme, love it and really hoping not to look back but Word 2013 appears not to love it so much and won't allow me to change the page or text colour of a document (or at least the changes aren't visible)  It does  change highlight colours, but inverted.  I use Word quite a lot and would prefer to just work on it in high contrast but often need to change and see changes to page and font colour.

Is there a way round this? 

 

Moved from windows XP to Windows 2007 and moved from Office 2003 Professional to Office 2007+ and having printing issues

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 09:20 AM PDT

I keep getting the error code "One or more margins are set outside of the printable area of the page.  Choose the fix button to increase the appropriate margins." when going to print a document.  These documents are not outside of the printable area.  Why am I getting this message and how do I correct it?

Also, I had another document with a boarder around the edge.  I would receive the same message when printing the document in the old version, I chose to ignore it, and it printed just fine.  Now, the boarder only shows up on the top edge, the text is enlarged, and the formats are all askew.  Why does this new version change formats in documents?

The margin issue also is happening in excel.

Styles scrambled in document

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 08:39 AM PDT

I have a large document (~27 MB, ~700 pages) in which several styles (about 7 of them) are used consistently to format text in various parts of the document.

Lately I noticed that text that used to be formatted with StyleA or StyleB in several parts of the document is now formatted with StyleC, even though I made no such change manually, nor have I made any other 'dodgy' changes/edits to the document.

Any idea what might have happened, and is there any way to revert those sections of text to their initial style (A or B)?

Thanks.

Frustrations with Headers & Footers remaining fixed when created

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 08:14 AM PDT

I am an author and have finished my manuscript and formatted it to create a paperback.  I have spent too many wasted hours trying to keep my headers and footers from constantly changing, especially when saving.  For example, when I create the header on an odd page using my name and a different header on an even page using the name of the novel, it works until I put page numbers on the odd and even pages.  Then, my name or the novel name changes to be the same on both odd and even pages.  Sometimes, my page numbers start at the correct odd number, ex. 5, 6, 7, 8, but then they automatically change to 5, 8, 6, 8, 7, 8, 9, 8, etc.  My frustration is that no matter how many times I try to format my pages, I end up with these problems.  I've checked numerous resources, but this issue is not addressed.  Help, please!

Lost Word documents

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 06:46 AM PDT

I'm using W 8.1 Outlook's email and Office 2010.  While attaching 8 saved Word documents to an email they disappeared.  They are no longer listed in my Word folder.  I thought if they had been recovered I would find them by searching for any file ending in .asd.  Nothing found. The only place I find them listed is in the "Recent" list in Word but, when I click to open it the error message reads "file cannot be found".                                                                                          I believe that these 8 documents still exist but have no idea how to retrieve them.   Help please!    

MS Office Word 2003 - Document failed to recover changes

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 06:07 AM PDT

I came into work today to discover the my workstation had been rebooted (most likely a forced reboot to apply security updates, but with no real warning the day before). This always vexes me as it closes everything I had been working on, including updating a document in MS Office Word 2003. Of course this has happened before so I always save every few minutes, generating TMP files, until I eventually close the document.

This time however, when I opened the document I expected to see a "recovery" request, but there was none. The ~name.doc version of the original file and several TMP files are occupying teh documents directory. Is there any way for me to recover my changes...?

Continuous Section Break giving me the wrong page number

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 01:22 AM PDT

Hi,

I work in IT and regularly answer 'How To' questions on MS Office.  We are running Office 2010 and I have also tried this in Word 2013 with the same outcome.

An example scenario is as follows:

  • Page 1
  • Page 2
    • Continuous Section break on page before page break
  • Page 3 (re-numbered to read Page 8)

The issue I am experiencing is that following the continuous section break, the subsequent page number increases by 1 from the one I have selected.  So in order for my document to display page 8 I have to select 'start at page 7' from the page number format dialogue box.   Please see the picture below for an example.

I have replicated this using Windows 7 Office 2010 and Windows 8.1 Office 2013 and I am struggling to believe this is by design, is anyone able to shed any light on this situation?

I eagerly await a response as this has been bugging me for a couple of days now!

Thanks in advance

Saving to hard drive is slow

Posted: 08 Aug 2014 01:09 AM PDT

I am using Word 365 with Windows 7 and saving a 20-page text to my hard drive is taking up to two minutes! it should be nearly instant. In my case, saving the same document to the network drive is normal (a second or two).  The automatic saves to my hard drive are also excruciatingly slow.  This is a recent problem - in other words, I've been using the same program in the same way on the same computer for quite some time with not such issue.  Any ideas?

Office 365 Apps for iPad crashing

Posted: 07 Aug 2014 06:14 PM PDT

Hi,

I have several of the Office 365 apps (Excel, Word and Powerpoint) on my iPad and sign in with my university ID. However since the update on the 1st August, I can't get any of these applications to open. Once I tap which application I'm after it starts to load but crashes before getting to the start screen. I'm afraid to reinstall the apps or reset them, as I haven't had the chance to email my files created in these applications which were only saved to my iPad and I can't afford to lose them. 

Please help me resolve this issue as soon as possible, as not being able to access these applications is affecting my study.

Regards,

Naomi

return address in word is printing partially, I print from another computer with the exact same specs and options, it prints fine, not from this computer

Posted: 07 Aug 2014 04:26 PM PDT

I am using Microsoft word for all our mailing needs, since yesterday and for  some weird reason, I can't print the return address on a # 10 white envelope. I only have a partial print. I tried different things, and finally I printed the envelope from a different computer, with all the same specs and with the same printer ( both computers are connected to the same printer), the return address was fine as it should be.

I don't understand what's the reason, is there a fix??

Installation Problem Office 2000

Posted: 15 Mar 2007 09:21 AM PDT

Hi Matthew,

The .MSI file is only available on the original product CD, it's not available from Microsoft as a download and MS no longer has
Office 2000 CD versions available. Office 2000 was released then
re-released twice

Office 2000 (original)
Office 2000 with SR1 Service Release
Office 2000 with SR2 Service Release

The updates were also provided in .MSP patch versions both in download and CD patch disks. Once the Service Release (SR1a) was
installed then the way the Installer saw things you it would report that you had Office 2000 SR1, but 'knew' that your CD would be
the original one. That SR1 is appearing in the 'Use CD from' dialog box tends to indicate that the SR1 update was applied at some
point.

Be sure that the CD you have is for the same Edition (Premium) that is listed in Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel
and that it's CD#1 (Premium is a 4 CD set).

One of the most common places where you'd run into the CD not being accepted is that the original installation is damaged (which,
unfortunately, requires the CD to repair). If you cannot complete a Repair/Reinstall of Office 2000 from the Microsoft Office 2000
listing in Add/Remove Programs then you may need to use the MS Installer cleanup utility, then restart the PC then reinstall and
repatch, but that can vary based on the exact error message you receive when trying to do the repair. Let us know what that is
please.

Peter,

This really doesn't answer my question. It is a link that I already have

for. Do you know where I can download the package with the SR-1a MSI? >>

Running Office XP and Office 2007

Posted: 15 Mar 2007 02:39 AM PDT

Hi Warren,

The installer starting is 'normal' behavior when you run multiple Office versions (a practice MS recognizes but doesn't recommend
<g>)
With multiple versions of Word installed the MS Installer changes the settings to match the correct (last used) version when you
start it. (More information on having multiple versions of Office installed appears here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928091 )

There are a couple of workarounds.

1. Create and use (where the PC has enough 'oomph' to support it, Virtual PC installations to separate the versions
http://microsoft.com/virtualpc

2. Edit the registry to have the installer ignore the 'switch' between versions. While this will stop the installer on a regular
(as you use the apps) basis it's not clear at present what other areas this may affect when switching between Word versions,
including running a repair (Office 2000 thru 2003)/diagnostic (Office 2007) or when updates are applied. Here are the steps on
Windows XP, they may vary slightly in Windows Vista. As a suggestion, you may want to lock things into the version of Word that
matches the version of Outlook you'll be using.

a. Optionally, run either Repair from the Word 2000-2003 help menu
and/or an Office diagnostic from Office 2007 to double check that the 'innards' are in good order.

b. Run the version of Word that you want to have associated with your .doc, .dot, .docx, etc files, then close Word.

c. Double click, in Windows Explorer in My Documents or another folder a .doc file to be sure it opens in the correct version you
prefer to use then close all running Office apps.

d. Use Start=>Run and type Regedit.

e. Navigate down in HKEY_CURRENT_USER to
\Software\Microsoft\Office

f. For Word 2007 (v12.0) continue to navigate through

\12.0\Word\Options

and once there right click on the 'Options' branch in the left panel and create a new 'DWORD' named NoReReg , then set the value
of NoReReg to 1.

g. For Word 2003 (v11.0), follow the same steps as in 2f, but use the area for Word 2003, which would be

\11.0\Word\Options

h. For Word 2002 (v10.0), follow the same steps as in 2f, but use the area for Word 2002 (Office XP), which would be

\10.0\Word\Options

Note that this doees work for Word 2003 and Word 2007 but I don't recall if the 'NoReReg' key is recognized in the Office XP/2002 or
Office 2000 editions.

Please let us know how this goes for you

==================
<<"Warren" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com...
By default, Office XP and 2007 place their content within subfolders, which
is in the official Microsoft documentation:

Office XP: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\
Office 2007: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office 12\

Both suites do run on the same PC, but as I mentioned if you switch from one
to the other (such as Word, which is the biggest culprit) you get either the
Windows Installer configuring office XP, or Office 2007 setup re-setting up
Office despite it being already installed.

I'll try installing one away from the default folder, but to be honest I
think that's already been tried with *exactly* the same result. <<

Right click a doc running office 2007 send to doesnt work

Posted: 14 Mar 2007 03:22 PM PDT

Are you in the Word, File Open dialog or in Windows explorer? both, as
mentioned i get the mapi error
"This error can occur if you attempt to send a Word document as an e-
mail attachment in Word and the MAPI session was closed and Word is
no
longer able to connect to that MAPI session. It can also occur if
there is a problem with the fax configuration.
To correct a MAPI related error: restart the MAPI e-mail program (for
example,Outlook) or save and close the document, and then restart
Word
after restarting your MAPI e-mail application. Word will establish a
new MAPI session, allowing the document to be sent.
To correct a problem with the fax configuration, review the
configuration settings for your fax software and make the appropriate
changes."

What version of Windows and which 'send to' option are you trying to
use? XP SP2

If 'Send to email recipient' what email app are you using?

Office 2007 Ribbon

Posted: 14 Mar 2007 02:27 AM PDT

To be honest, it would have been a lot better had Microsoft given users the
choice of interfaces.

I object particularly to the fact that plenty of staff will look at the
Ribbon, think "I'm not using that!" and never bother with Office. There's
probably a massive retraining budget needed so that users are comfortable
with the look and feel.

That look and feel hasn't changed that much since Word 6, and many of our
admin staff have been using Word since then. I'd hate to deploy Office 2007
right now and give them no option.

It only makes me even more determined to move to OpenOffice instead...

Office 2007 Installation Issues

Posted: 13 Mar 2007 06:49 AM PDT

I actually got it to install last night (total of 18 hrs of Vista issues,
then another 12 hours downtime in office 2007 issues). Still waiting on MS to
contact me, I have
offered to submit my solution for a white paper - we will see. It involved a
lot of registry manipulation.. Not a typical install for someone who may be
in my same position that has min. computer experience. I think normally it
would have worked well, I beleive it has soemthing to do with downloading the
trial version. That is where the problem lies.

Everything works well with the exception of Accounting Express - can't get
to accept my prodcut code - still thinks it is in trial mode. MS is working
on getting me a full product key code, so hopefully that will work.

Thanks for replying

BTW - Beware installing Vista and Office 2007 with Vista - not a walk in the
park! Nor is it worth the trouble..not that great of an OS.

will start the Office 2007 Customization Tool (OCT).
It is not available for OEM or retail products.

For additional information on using the Office Customization Tool the Office 2007 Resource Kit may be of help:
http://microsoft.com/office/ork

The OCT does not support GPO deployments, as it creates .MSP (installer patch files) for customization and the MS Installer doesn't
support .MSP files with that method.

Bob pls forgive for not being clear. I just don't have it. And was hoping it
could become available for D/L. I think it kinda sux's that WE (partners and
the apprpreate) don't have it. For 2003 ver. I made several transforms, and
others. That, would speed up my small deployments (spc. SBS+5-25). But do
(mentally) recreate a cfg xml makes me pout. When the OCT is yes/no. That's
all. WAIK and OPK dont sute this method verry well. Those are related to
in-house Admin, and completed machines.>>

Customize the Quick Access Toolbar in Office 2007

Posted: 12 Mar 2007 12:43 PM PDT

Hi Matt,

The Quick Access Toolbars are stored in .QAT files. For Word it would be Word.QAT. (They're XML files). You could create the .QAT
file ahead of time and deploy it as an additional file.

Hi,

Is there a way to customize the quick access toolbar in all Office 2007
applications using the Office Customization Tool? Some features such as the
'quick print' I would like to have in the toolbar by default for all users
when they first open the office applications.

Thanks,
Matt>>

That will work ONLY if it was purchased as a retail product, not an OEM.

Windows keeps trying to install Office 2007--please help.

Posted: 11 Mar 2007 03:29 PM PDT

Hey Dingo - Jeff C here, I just posted the same problem.

I have been fighting this for a week. Third tier MS tech, they can't fix.
Windows installer pops up 4-5 times when opening Outlook, Excel, Word. I
upgraded from 2003 to Small Business. Business Contact Man. and Accounting
Express do not work either. I try to revert back and have now success.

Let me know if you come up with anything. I have tried everything except
re-fromating my hard drive and starting from scrathc - which I am about ready
to do.

later - jeffc

Disk will not start

Open My Computer, right-click the disk drive, properties, auto-play tab.

You could see if showing hidden files helps, control panel, folder options, view
tab, tick Show hidden files and folders.

Is this a trial CD?

Visio Pro 2007 over Office Enterprise 2007

Posted: 09 Mar 2007 10:31 AM PST

Thanks. I assume unchecking anything already installed would cause Visio
2007 setup to uninstall the feature (even though it didn't install it)?

Keeping office 2003 preferences with 2007 upgrade replacement-Outl

Posted: 08 Mar 2007 03:39 PM PST

Do NOT under any circumstances import your .pst file into Outlook unless you want to lose data.

OPEN the .pst file in Outlook using Outlook's File->Open->Outlook data file. This should not be a problem however, as you are performing an upgrade and Outlook should find your .pst file just fine.

Change path for Detect and Repair

Posted: 07 Mar 2007 02:21 PM PST

I am not sure if it is an Office Admin point. it was just a UNC path on a
remote file server. That path is no longer valid, so when I try to use the
Detect and Repair, it tries to go to that locaiton and, again, not the option
to do anything else.

Thanks for the link

There are still problems left.
And is it practical to go out hunting for every registry entry manually,
