Microsoft Word - Inserting an Excel Sheet into an MS-Word Document

Microsoft Word - Inserting an Excel Sheet into an MS-Word Document

Inserting an Excel Sheet into an MS-Word Document

Posted: 04 Oct 2014 01:53 PM PDT

All the documentation essentially says to copy from Excel and paste into the MS-Word document. When I do that, the formatting of the MS-Word table is so different from the Excel sheet that this method is practically worthless, especially for larger or more complex spreadsheets. For example, the individual cells are frequently expanded to two rows even for simple numbers. In addition, the size of the table frequently exceeds the page size of the MS-Word document. These MS-Word tables are extremely cumbersome to modify, requiring individual cell-by-cell adjustment. If complicated, the tables are so greatly misshapen that one cannot grab, move or modify the table, and it is entirely unusable. See the example attached. In these instances, I've taken to pdf-ing the Excel sheet, converting it to a jpg format, then inserting it as a picture into the Excel document. This has the advantage that a picture is easily scalable, and MS-Word handles picture insertions ten times better than it handles Excel tables. Incidentally, I never have this trouble with tables in PowerPoint or Publisher or (God help us all) WordPerfect. This leads me to believe that these difficulties are actually involved with Microsoft's structural vision of what should be done in MS-Word vs. the market segmentation for Publisher.

Or possibly, there is some other insertion or linking mechanism that works better. Am I doing it incorrectly? Does anyone have a better suggestion?

Office 365 vs. Online

Posted: 04 Oct 2014 01:38 PM PDT

Am shopping for a new home laptop and am contemplating the subscription for Office 365 vs. doing the online version for free.  If I were to get 365 and then down the road decide to cancel, would I still be able to access and edit any Word (or other) documents created on it via the online version?  Or would they be read only?

Thanks!

Updating old word document with consistent styles

Posted: 04 Oct 2014 01:30 PM PDT

I have "inherited" a Policies and Procedures manual which unfortunately has been worked on by many individuals which various style choices.  I would like to update this document which has indented subtitles with many levels i.e. 1., then indented subsection 1.1, then indented again subsection 1.1.1, and on and on - you get my drift.  Is there an easy way to apply a standard template of sorts that doesn't have me editing each and every line but that also allows anyone who edits this document after me to easily follow the new style template - I'm thinking maybe tab once and automatically the format is consistent, tab twice and the indent and formatting change yet again but consistent with the document????

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I'm using Word 2010.

Some HTML Links do not work in MS Word 2003

Posted: 04 Oct 2014 10:06 AM PDT

 I have a MS Word 2003 document with many html links to various internet sites. Some of the links do work, others do not.   This same situation occurs on multiple PCs with same document.   No internet connection related problems known.   Websites vary - all websites are fine.   Does not appear to be related to URL whatever ... HTTP / HTTPS.  Working links have both.   Non working links have both.

For the links that do not work, I can edit the link, copy the destination, paste that into Internet Explorer, and it works just fine.

The destination websites do not appear to be the problem.

When clicking on the link, the error dialog says "Unable to open http:// .... The Internet site reports that the item you requested could not be found. (HTTP/1.0 404).

What might be the problem ?


Someone said "spurious characters in link"  ??? I copy link and paste into browser - it works.

Ghost Files in Word; how to get rid of.

Posted: 04 Oct 2014 09:57 AM PDT

I have Ghost files in at least one folder that look like this ~$ile name. Note, at least the first letter of the file name is missing, and in some cases several. I believe they are temp. files, but why are they showing up inside the folder that is holding the actual files. Also, when I look at the folder it looks like a hand is holding it. I was sharing this folder with my other laptop but then decided to copy the files to my other laptop. I copied by dragging the folder from one laptop to the other. However, I copied several folders the same way at the same time, and only one of the folders, that I am aware of, has those ghost files. At present they are just annoying and I would like to get rid of them. Is there a way for me to do this? If I can't get rid of them, can they cause problems down the road?

I am using Word  2007, and Windows XP on the laptop with the original file. My other laptop is running Windows 8.1

I have read about ghost files in the Community but what is written does not seem to pertain to my specific problem.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Restricted editing in Word 2007 disables Section Break

Posted: 04 Oct 2014 02:41 AM PDT

When I save a word 2007 document with restricted editing, I am not able to insert a section break. The section break icon is greyed out/ disabled. In Word 2003 the section break is allowed on the same document. Please give a solution to this so that I may be able to insert section breaks in a document protected for restricted editing.

Comment Templates?

Posted: 04 Oct 2014 01:22 AM PDT

Can I create templates for comments in Word?

I'd like to create a set of pre-defined comments which are continually used.

e.g. 

A range of comment templates which have names and pre-defined comments such as:

"Tense"

Comment: You need to change the tense here.

"Word order"

Comment: You need to reconsider your word order here.

"Read the question"

Comment: You have not answered the question here. Read the question carefully.

Any idea why Word 2013 ignores a style specification but, Word 2007 does not do that with identical specification, as demonstrated below?

Posted: 03 Oct 2014 06:04 PM PDT

  • In Office 2007, we notice that the Heading 1, as per specification, leaves 250 spaces above the heading.
  • But then, with same specification in Word 2013, Heading 1 positions itself at the top of the page, ignoring the same spec.
  • Any solution?

Word 2013 - Start a Footer on the Third Section and Blank on First Two Sections

Posted: 03 Oct 2014 05:58 PM PDT

  • Windows 8.1 Pro - 64 bit
  • Office 2013 - 64 bit (standalone version as part of Office 365 enterprise)
  • Word 2013

I am trying to create a document with the following attributes:

  • Title page in its own section (easily done)
  • Table of Contents in its own section following title page (easily done)
  • Body of the document with a footer
    • Footer begins on this section only. Prior sections should have no footer. (This is where I am having difficulty)
    • Footer has a page number starting at one (easily done)

I can create a title page and create a table of contents. When I attempt to add a footer (Blank three Columns), on the third section, I deselect "Link to Previous". Unfortunately, the first two sections now have a footer templates at the bottom of the pages. In other words, when I look at the bottoms of title and table of contents pages, I see "type here".

How can I insert a footer starting on the third section while absent on the first two sections?

Thank you.

How do I modify HTML web pages that have been copied and pasted into Word?

Posted: 03 Oct 2014 04:46 PM PDT

One of the more interesting features of Word (all versions) is its ability to display an HTML web page as an editable document, including images, text, and formatting. Problems arise, however, in understanding and removing all the tables, boxes, and other extraneous elements that are also included on the page. If the intention is to create clean pages which contain images, text, and some of the website's original formatting, what is the best way to remove everything else?

Multiple sessions with the same login id

MSCRM is licensed on a named-user basis. This means that anyone who users the
app should have a license. Unfortunately, hey do not offer a read-only license.

Technically, an app that uses SDK calls to retrieve data and display it should
also require a license. There is some gray in this though. If you are
concerned about the retrievals, then you can always try to access the tales
directly via SQL. This is allowed, but not supported.

As fro the EULA text, it is on the installation CD and most likely is copied to
the server as well.

Matt,
Thanks a lot for pointing this out. I am a bit scared now. We use an admin
account to render data in some of the custom pages (this data could not be
retrieved if the current user credential is used). Is this also a violation
of the EULA?

This might seem to be a stupid question. But what exactly does the EULA say
about this issue? Is there a place where I can find the EULA text?

Thanks a lot

Incomming e-mails appear duplicated

Posted: 10 May 2005 03:18 PM PDT

Hi Oscar~

Rob is correct that the incoming e-mail is being processed by more than one
of the CRM Exchange Connectors. To get around this please follow Rob's
suggestion or consider placing a front-end Exchange server that will
process all incoming e-mail. Then the CRM Exchange Connector will only need
to be placed on this server.

In regards to your second question, what you are experiencing when sending
e-mail out of CRM with duplicate activites being created is by design for
CRM. A separate e-mail activity is created for each recipient.

Warm Regards,

Can't access CRM

Posted: 10 May 2005 02:01 PM PDT

Thank you - I wasn't aware of this update.
I have now applied a host header to the website I originally created for CRM
and given an alias name for DNS.

However I still have the same problem. When I set the crmweb with the same
IP as the network card internal address the default website stops working and
when I type http://servername/crmweb I getpage not found.

Are there changes I need to make to the CRM installation to reflect the host
header? Or should I uninstall and reinstall CRM?

Also did you have a comment on my question re the CRM exchange connector?

Thanks.

The All Leads view is not All Leads.

Posted: 10 May 2005 12:58 PM PDT

Larry,
There is a way around this...
1) In the IE client, go to Home | Settings | Business Unit Settings |
Teams
2) Click New Team, give the Team a name, such as "Admins", and Save the
Team.
3) Click on the Members team, the Add Members button, and add your
System Admin to this team.
4) Go to Home | Settings | System Customization | Leads | All Leads
5) Select Actions | Sharing on the All Leads view customization screen.
6) Click on the Add Team button, click Go, double-click on the Team
Name you created. Click OK.

You have now "shared" the All Leads view with only those people in that
group. "Sharing", in a uniquely Microsoft definition of the word, in
this case means to restrict access to everybody, except those with whom
you share the view. Which means in this case that your regular users
can no longer see this view!

Now, create a new View, name it whatever you like, Filter however you
like, and voila, problem solved... HTH,

Dave

Question about Activity assignation to Case

Not to mention that all activities accepted have to be manually deleted from
in progress when the case has been solved...
Is there a workaround for that?

Custom view will not run

Posted: 10 May 2005 09:04 AM PDT

Ron,

Do you know if the full-text search indexing is running correctly on the SQL
Server? I believe searching in the memo fields is done through the full-text
search engine of SQL Server. Therefor it should be running and also indexing.

Question about security setting

Posted: 10 May 2005 02:33 AM PDT

Thanks for reply Dan.

Two users are in the same BU.
Actually, I created a new BU called "Local Sales", with parent BU set to
"Adventure Work Cycle", and there's no child BU under "Local Sales".

For the "Local Sales" BU, only 2 users belong to it, cs and cs_manager, and
they both grant to role called cs_user.
One of the owner of the Accounts that cs_manager should not be seen is
"Administrator", and he is under "Adventure Work Cycle" BU. Actually,
cs_manager able to view all acounts that created by different BU, that's why
it's so rare....and cs with the exact same setting but only able to view
"Local Sales" owner's accounts.
I also checked that there are no sharing among those Accounts, and there's
no team setup for two users.
One thing that maybe an issue is that cs_manager is the Manager of cs, will
that be an issue? But I can't remove that Manager relationship once I
assigned.

Please help, thanks.

Ken
