| Half of document disappeared on Word Posted: 08 Sep 2014 02:44 PM PDT I had a frightening experience on Word 2013 today when, having saved it, I closed the document. When I re-opened I discovered that over half of it had disappeared. I did manage to recover the document by downloading it from the Onedrive website but what can do to prevent this happening again in the future? |
| Spell check does not work in Office 2013 Posted: 08 Sep 2014 01:07 PM PDT Spell check does not work with Office 2013 documents. I downloaded the proofing tool, but still no luck. What's wrong? |
| Style Organization in normal.dotm Posted: 08 Sep 2014 12:09 PM PDT I am a technical trainer in a law firm that is about to migrate from Word XP to Word 2010 (yes, finally)... No matter what I do in my normal.dotm, the style list I surface, even after changing options to list all styles/alphabetically, in all documents based on this template doesn't seem to actually control that behavior. Is there a way to set this as a machine or software default? I know the users will be more confused if I can't get this behavior solidified. I can't find anything online that addresses this. Any suggestions? Thank you! Christiane McGlade |
| Page count field in footer won't update in a protected Word 2010 document Posted: 08 Sep 2014 12:06 PM PDT We have a series of documents in which management wants the user to be able to click a check box to select or deselect it. To do this, I've created sections in the document and protected only those sections that have the check boxes or other text that shouldn't change. But management also wants "Page x of n" for the page numbering in the footer (x is the current page number, n is the total page count), and the page count won't automatically update as text flows to the next page. The work-around is to "Stop Protection" on the document, at which point the page count field automatically updates. I can "Start enforcing protection" again, and the change sticks. Because this is a form many employees will use for everyday tasks, I would like to know if there's a way to "unprotect" the footer in a protected document so the user doesn't have to take the extra steps of unprotecting and protecting the document just to update a page number. We don't want to use a macro or macro button (I know how to write the macro to do this, so please, no suggested macros), because that's NOT user friendly: the page count field should change automatically regardless of protection because that's what typical users expect it to do. Thank you. Scott |
| Posted: 08 Sep 2014 11:50 AM PDT Hello, I have a table with a number of address related fields (ex: name, title, company, street, etc.) and a "christmas" field with either an "x" or left empty depending if the person is set to receive a letter on Christmas. I am using the following syntax {SKIPIF {MERGEFIELD christmas}=""}{ MERGEFIELD "name"} { MERGEFIELD "address"} { MERGEFIELD "postalcode"}
{NEXT}{SKIPIF {MERGEFIELD christmas}=""}{ MERGEFIELD "name"} { MERGEFIELD "address"} { MERGEFIELD "postalcode"} and Word (2013) doesn't seem to pick up on the SKIPIF field at all. When I check the preview, every name is on the resulting list, no matter the value of the "christmas" field in my Excel document. I don't know if I'm doing it wrong or if the problem comes from me using the French version of Word 2013. Thank you for your help. |
| :Liquid Layout" in Word to PDF Posted: 08 Sep 2014 11:45 AM PDT Hi, all, I have a potential client who is looking to update their 20-year-old employment application form. They want, of course, to put it in an Acrobat Form, likely with form fields linked to collect information to their HR database. Other thing is they would like to see the form in PDFs that will be sized to phone and tablet screens as well as to desktops. They will probably (I'm meeting with them this week, so I'll know more details) will want to have the end result in a Word file so they can make adjustments later on as needed. Otherwise, I'd be shooting for an InDesign Liquid Layout format. Barring that, the idea I have so far is to lay out the Word document in different sizes, and hope their web design people are already using different CSS styles to match different sized screens. I can see setting each field and the text with it in their own little table object, so they would reflow as I change the page size, but that would still leave a big opportunity to get messed up in the future. I can also try setting up different layouts in Word's Publisher View, but again, there's no guarantee that the client will have proper version to handle it. Count on most corporations to be about 2 or 3 versions of Office behind, and still hanging on to XP. This is kind of a wide open question, so any wide open suggestions to improve the workflow and leave the client a usable file would be considered. Thanks! Mark McD (Using Office 365 on both PC and Mac, so don't care to specify a system from the drop-downs) |
| How to get Pinyin above my chinese characters Posted: 08 Sep 2014 11:21 AM PDT Hi all,
I have been searching for the answer to the question and have been frustrated at every turn. first, let me fully explain this, since few people so far seem to have understood what I actually need. My computer is able to type Chinese characters using pinyin, I have no problem with this, so please don't give me instructions on how to do this. My problem is with the phonetic guide. I am in university right now, and we are memorizing some scripts. I want to put the pinyin ABOVE the character like I do with Japanese furigana (and I have no problem with the Japanese one). Currently, the phonetic guide only ever puts in the Taiwanese alphabet, which is completely unhelpful, considering I can't read it. I have tried to download PininJoe (some program people kept suggesting), but it will not work, so that is out. I know there are sites that will show me pinyin, but they don't allow you to copy/paste normal conversations with the pinyin above each individual character. The pinyin is either in a separate sentence, or they are done by individual character. So these sites don't work either. So, my question is, how the heck do I get pinyin ABOVE the individual characters in my word document? I have word 2007 on a windows 8.1 computer. It is literally just the Chinese pinyin that isn't working, it does everything correctly in Japanese. So why won't it work now? Thanks for your help. I've been stuck on this for awhile, and help forums and videos have so far been completely useless. Hopefully someone will actually n answer.

| How to Change Indent Increments Posted: 08 Sep 2014 11:20 AM PDT I would like to know if it is possible to change the Increment of indentation on either the ribbon Home Tab or Page Layout Tab in Word 2010. On the Home tab the Increase Indent button will increase the indent by 0.5 inch. On the Page Layout tab the Left indent increments by 0.1". I'd like to change either of these to indent by 0.25". |
| Mobile Office on WP 8.1 doesn't read pictures inserted into .doc as a link Posted: 08 Sep 2014 11:12 AM PDT I have created a word document with excel objects pasted as a link. Whole document is perfectly readable by MS Office on PC's and doc viewer on an iPhone. Unfortunately Mobile Ofice on Nokia Lumia can not read this document properly and only text is visible. What can be the reason for that ? |

| printing A6 or A7 multiple times on A4 Posted: 08 Sep 2014 10:24 AM PDT I have designed a ticket (including 2 logos) for a charity event I am running and I have planned it as an A6 document. I would now like to reduce it to A7 and print it 8 to a sheet. I originally tried to print 4 to a sheet but one of my attempts accidentally came out A7 size and I prefer that. However there was a problem with the logo so I scrapped that version and I can't now remember how I did it. In any case it was only 4 copies to a sheet, with gaps in between, so it wasn't quite what I needed. One of the problems is that what it looks like in 'print preview' doesn't show what it will actually look like when printed! I have been told that I need something more sophisticated than Word to do this (I have Word 2007) but the fact that it almost happened by accident makes me think it should be possible to achieve what I want. Can anyone advise? |
| When "add to dictionary" option is unavailable in MS Word 2013 Posted: 08 Sep 2014 09:34 AM PDT This solution is similar to the solution that I found for MS Word 2007, of course. I figured out a solution in case anyone has issues with this option in Microsoft Word 2013. 1. Go to office button and select word "options". 2. In the proofing tab, select custom dictionary: 3. Make sure that all languages is selected for dictionary language. The "CUSTOM.DIC" dictionary should be default. If it isn't, set it as the default dictionary. Click "OK". 4. Go back to the spelling and grammar icon of the document working on and what you should see is the gray bar gone and the "add to dictionary" option being accessible now. |
| Posted: 08 Sep 2014 09:28 AM PDT I am trying to apply a custom style, APA Level 3, and when I apply the style, the entire document from that point forward takes on the style. What do I have to do to have the style only apply to the text I want? |
| tool to display all important Word file locations? Posted: 08 Sep 2014 09:06 AM PDT Once upon a time, I recall seeing an Office or Word utility, or VBA macro or template, that would display all the important file locations used by Word (and other Office applications?). Not just the Default and AutoRecover locations shown in Word Options Save; not just the File Locations dialog under Word Options Advanced General; not just the Trusted Locations shown in the Trust Center under Word Options Trust Center Settings. But all of those, and also where custom dictionaries are stored, where the AutoCorrect file is stored, where the Quick Access Toolbar file is stored, where Normal.dotm is located, and more. (Not where things are normally stored by default; I need to know about a specific user's current settings, which may have been changed from the defaults.) I've searched the Web now for hours, and cannot find anything like this. Does anyone remember this besides me? Can anyone tell me where to find such a tool? I'm trying to help a user with a Word problem, and I think it involves a network file location. But I cannot walk him through all of those different Word option dialogs, asking him to send me every path name. And some of those file locations are hard to find in the user interface, and they don't seem to be in a central location in the registry. Any ideas, anyone? Please? Sande |

| Office 2013 Crashes When Trying to Print or Export to PDF Posted: 08 Sep 2014 07:19 AM PDT Hello, I've had MS Office 2013 for several months now, and I previously didn't have any issues. But recently, within the past week or so, Office is crashing every time I click "Print" or use Ctrl+P in Word and Excel. Office also crashes every time I try to "Save As..." a PDF or "Export" to PDF. I'm not receiving any error codes - just a note that Office has suddenly stopped working and will close itself. I thought perhaps the issue was that the document I was using was on OneDrive (I had a previous issue with OneNote not printing or exporting to OneDrive), so I copied the file onto my desktop and into my documents and tried to export to those locations, but that didn't help. I've checked that I have no active add-on's and tried printing and exporting in Word's Safe Mode, but it still immediately crashes. I don't have any stand-alone Adobe products on my computer, such as Reader or Acrobat. I removed the only program that I know of installing recently (InkScape) and did a System Restore to my last restore point, but no luck. Currently I'm going through the Microsoft Office updates and uninstalling them one-by-one to see if that's causing it. I'm using Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus on a Surface Pro 2 with Windows 8.1. Any ideas? I downloaded this program through my university's technology program, and it's been long enough that I don't know if I'd be able to gain access to the program and key again, so I'd rather not try to uninstall and reinstall it if that can be avoided. |

| How to insert page sub-numbers in a word document Posted: 08 Sep 2014 06:51 AM PDT I need to insert new additional pages into a 700 page Word document. If I allow Word to treat these newly inserted pages as it would by default, then all of the page numbers subsequent to the inserted pages will be different from those of the existing printed volume(s) and as a result will need to be reprinted and replaced in the document. Is there a way to insert the new pages using a sub numbering system, let's say there are four new pages, beginning after page 110? I want to number the new pages as 110 - A, 110 - B, 110 - C, 110-D, then allow the unmodified pages to continue again with 111. I have seen this done in various manuals we receive here at work published by JJKeller. How would this be done. Thanks |

| Reset style settings to remove all changes from the style it is based on Posted: 08 Sep 2014 05:10 AM PDT I have a few styles that other styles are based on.

| Dynamic table functionality seems to be missing in Word 2013 on Windows 8 Posted: 08 Sep 2014 01:32 AM PDT Word 2013 introduced the ability to dynamically insert lines, columns and styles directly into a table. For example, you can just hover over the left hand side and the lines part, a plus sign appears and you can quickly add a line. I'm working on two different machines, one is a Dell Windows 8 tablet hooked up to a larger monitor with a mouse and keyboard attached, the other is a Windows 7 PC. I'm trying to create FAQ's for new users in our organisation and need to use the tablet to access some software I'm writing about. The table functionality works quite happily with Word 2013 on Windows 7 but disappears on Windows 8. I'd like to find out if this is a problem with the tablet or Windows 8 as I'll need to let our users know? Thanks in anticipation. |
| Disable multilevel list in Word 2013? Posted: 07 Sep 2014 09:52 PM PDT Hi friends, I've just discovered the power of Word 2013's multilevel lists when paired with Heading styles. However, as is so often the case, now that I've discovered this power, I can't control it, i.e. turn it off! In the Ribbon, under the Home tab, I click "Multilevel List" to select a multilevel list style to associate with Heading 1, Heading 2, etc. But if I want to disable this, clicking "Multilevel List" and selecting "None" from the "List Library" only disables the list style for the heading where the cursor is currently located. If I have multiple lines selected, clicking "Multilevel List" and choosing "None" from the List Library does remove the list style from all headings in the selected text. But creating subsequent headings applies the previously selected multilevel list style, also not the desired behavior. What I am looking for is a way to totally toggle whether the multilevel list styles are in force. How can I do this? Thanks, - Drew |
| Posted: 07 Sep 2014 09:35 PM PDT Equations written in older version of Word (equation editor) do not appear properly: One of the Letter-Like Symbols, hbar (Reduced Planck Constant) does not show up (others show up properly), but double clicking the equation shows "h" instead of the right one (hbar). Then, if I click the pop up table, row 1 and colum 8, and select the symbol, hbar, just "h" (not hbar) is inserted. I need someone help. |
| Posted: 07 Sep 2014 08:19 PM PDT I am having trouble with the Equation tool (i.e. Insert -->; object --> Microsoft Equation 3.0 in my Microsoft 365 package. I can't get the above mentioned Equation tool to work. Whenever I try to enter an equation (or edit an existing one) I get the error message: "The program used to create this object is Equation. That program is either not installed o your computer or it is not responding. To edit this object, install Equation or ensure that any dialog boxes in Equation are closed". Equation has always worked in the past. I've reset my computer, but no joy. I had recently installed the Foxit PDF viewer, I wonder whether that did the damage. I've uninstalled it, restarted, and still no joy. Any suggestions would be welcomed. -Dylan |

| Office 365 -- Can't open any programs (One note, Excel, etc) except for Word Posted: 07 Sep 2014 11:35 AM PDT I recently downloaded Office 365, which was given to us free by my university. Everything was working fine until a couple days ago when my computer decided to update. Now I can't open any office programs except for my Word. When I try to open my one note I get the message ".... Onenote has ran into an error that is preventing it from working correctly..." It gives me the option to repair now, I click it and nothing happens. All other programs like excel, powerpoint etc. give me the message "Microsoft excel has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly..Close program" I have tried uninstalling my most recent version I downloaded and then reinstalled it and I'm still having the same problem. |
