| Posted: 28 Aug 2014 02:53 PM PDT This is for Server based Office 2013 - using Word All computer work stations are running Windows 7 professional I have Word 97 - 2003 templates saved on the shared drive on the server. I have these templates "pinned" to the opening page on all server user accounts, so when anyone starts word on the server anyone can see the company templates. On most of the work stations, when I create a new document from one of my templates - Word successfully shows all the Header and Footer details. But on one work station there is no content in the Header or Footer, no matter which server account is signed into the server on that workstation. Any suggestion |
| problem with ContentControls and templates Posted: 28 Aug 2014 02:37 PM PDT I am pulling my hair out over content controls and templates in Word 2010. Here's the situation:
I have a .docx document (not saved in Compatibility Mode) with a number of content controls. I set them up the way I want them. I select the entire document and, in the Developer tab, group the controls together as per this page to protect the doc. Testing my document, I can fill out the content controls—select from dropdowns, toggle checkboxes, pick dates, enter text, etc. Because of the protection, I cannot edit anything except the content of the controls, which is exactly what I desire.
For the heck of it, I open the VBA editor and, in the Immediate window, run this line of code:
?activedocument.contentcontrols.count
It gives me back 173 as the count.
I save my doc as a .dotx template.
Now, if I just open the template itself, I can fill out the content controls as before, I cannot edit the rest of the doc, and the count of the controls in the template is the same as in the document it was created from: 173.
But if I create a new document based on the template, I cannot add content to the controls. I cannot select anything from the dropdowns or enter text in the text fields or click checkboxes or anything else I am expecting to be able to do. My placeholder texts show but when I click on the controls, nothing happens. I can, however, edit the rest of the document's content, which I shouldn't be able to do.
If I get the count of content controls in the new document, it gives me back 0. Yet clearly something is still there in my doc, since I can see the placeholder text for the controls.
I'm obviously missing something, but what? How can I get this to work the way I need it to work? |
| How do I make the spell check in Word 2013 work with words in other languages that end in a symbol? Posted: 28 Aug 2014 01:42 PM PDT I have recently switched from using Word 2007 to using Word 2013, and I've run into a problem. Here is the problem: I am using the spell check to check spelling in a different language. I have my custom dictionary set up and for the most part it all works well. However many of the words have a glottal mark. An apostrophe can be used for this, but that confuses the spell check. Therefore I have it set up to use another symbol. I think the symbol I am using is called a "Latin Small Letter Saltillo" (Shortcut key: A78C, Alt+X). In most cases this does not make a problem. However when a word that ends with a glottal, for example "cꞌabaꞌ" comes just before a comma, period, or just about any punctuation, the spell check does not recognize the glottal and therefore considers the word to be misspelled. An additional problem this creates is, lets say perhaps I have that word "cꞌabaꞌ" in my work somewhere and I forgot to add the glottal at the end. So when the spell check catches that word, I choose "Change All" to the correct spelling with the glottal. The spell check automatically changes all of them it comes to them until it runs across one that comes directly before some punctuation. After it adds that needed glottal it immediately closes its eyes to the glottal and sees that word again without a glottal. So it ads another one, and then another. Zooooom, and it ends up with somewhere around 60 glottal marks on the end of the word before it finally gives up on considering it misspelled! Word 2007 worked fine with this issue of glottal marks before other punctuation. Is there some settings option I had set differently in Word 2007 or what is the difference that Word 2013 cannot understand this like Word 2007 did? Thank you in advance for your advice. |
| Cant open documents from my old pc on windows 8.1 Posted: 28 Aug 2014 12:38 PM PDT I have installed office home on my new laptop & I can open the programmes fine. However when I try to open my old excel & word documents which I transferred across I get a screen asking if I want to purchase MS office as I don't have it. I have noticed that my old documents are no longer called word or excel but XLSX & DOCX files. I am assuming I need to convert something somewhere. Thanks |
| Is it possible to work offline? Posted: 28 Aug 2014 11:11 AM PDT I am a student and have recently purchased office 365 university. When opening Word, Excel, Powerpoint etc.. a message box pops up says, "Getting your new office ready for you" However, being a student and all, I do not always have internet access, so when trying to work offline, I receive the above message (when opening a document) and cannot proceed any further. I cannot seem to close the box and the document in unresponsive. This is extremely frustrating, I have gone through the effort of buying a genuine product yet am unable to use it freely. Please help! |
| Unicode with tables seems to generate: "The xml data is invalid according to the schema" Posted: 28 Aug 2014 10:54 AM PDT Hello, Why would the presence of Unicode characters (not entities) and tables cause the parsing error in the title? I am editing the raw xml from the document as a single XML file and using PERL to convert entities to unicode characters. It seems to work in a lot of cases but fail in some specific instances, like when there is minimal text and a table. Thanks, Jalanford |
| Seperating Sections into seperate word document Posted: 28 Aug 2014 10:40 AM PDT I have a large word document, which happens to be a song book, that has multiple songs on one page. I am wanting to seperate each song into it owns document and use the name of the song as the document file name. I have gone in and started doing this by copying and pasting each song into its own seperate document, but this takes forever and I was wanting to automate this process by using VBA code. Could someone provide me with some guideance? Thanks!  |
| Template with autopopulating data - please help! Posted: 28 Aug 2014 09:01 AM PDT Hello, I need to create a template for work which has a lot of repeating data in it - eg 'full name' and 'preferred name' get repeated a lot and each time have to be repeated manually which is very time consuming and it would save everyone a lot of time and headaches if we could create a simple form whereby once you enter the information once it will automatically populate all the rest of the instances. The program we are using is word2010 and it is safe to assume I am somewhere between casual user and functional idiot but i'm very able to follow instructions if provided. I've already searched this but keep coming back to Visual Basic and frankly I'm scared of this - please let me know if there is an easy way of doing this. And whilst I'm already asking for miracles just on the offchance - there are various options that people have to choose for each one of these forms but they are between a maximum of say 6 options - they are quite text heavy (couple of paragraphs) - is there a way of presenting these as a drop down menu so they would just have to pick option a, b , c etc? thank you all for your time very very much appreciated Best wishes Gemma |
| Posted: 28 Aug 2014 08:33 AM PDT I have a pre-existing document (that is essentially a pieced together conglomeration of many other documents). The document contains many Section Breaks instead of Page Breaks. I'm trying to insert footers using VBA, with the first footer being different than all other pages. The code below would work perfectly IF my document had Page Breaks instead of Section Breaks, but alas, if I try to use it in my Section-Break-filled documents, all pages get the same footer.
Any suggestions on how to get this to work so that I can set the first page footer independently of the footer on the rest of the pages? Dim oSection As Section |
| Continue writing in previous outline level in Word Posted: 28 Aug 2014 06:44 AM PDT Hi All I'm writing a document and I'm using Headers and associated outline levels I've got levels from n to n.n.n I'm trying to figure out whether its possible to add text to level 1.1 after I've added several 1.1.n, i.e. 1. Some header some text 1.1 some sub-header some text some level 1 text [I want this to be associated with level 1] The idea is that if I collapse header 1.1 I still see the following text but if I collapse header 1 I don't. Any thoughts? (secondary to that, if the above is possible, I'd love to get ideas as to how to graphically indicate that I've moved back to level 1. Thanks Yossi |
| What does the August 2014 update for Word Starter 2010 do? What is it for? Posted: 28 Aug 2014 04:44 AM PDT I keep receiving a popup telling me that an update to Word Starter 2010 is available, click to run. Starter 2010 was installed on my laptop before it was purchased (Toshiba Satellite), before the starter edition had a time limit introduced. It was then made into a time limited trial. I need to know what the update is before I download it - in case a time limit is implemented! I really do not need to pay for full office ...... Stephanie HC |

| Office 2010 - Default font format Posted: 28 Aug 2014 02:10 AM PDT I upload files of text to Amazon Kindle (I write them in Word, convert them to HTML and then upload). Kindle require that I write main body text only using default settings – ie with no 'forced' settings as to e.g. alignment, font colour, font size etc. My problem seems to be with font colour. It must be set to 'Automatic' (so that if a reader chooses a dark background the font colour will adjust automatically) but the Kindle people tell me that, by the time my files arrive with them, the "Automatic colour option is pointing to red color; please let's make sure," they say, "the Automatic option points out to a black color".
Using the font dialogue box I have checked that the font is set (by default) to Automatic, and the colour in the box is black, so can anyone please tell me what more I should be doing?
Thank you. |
