Suggestions wanted for drive configuration for new Exchange 2003 server

Posted: 20 Sep 2007 05:46 PM PDT

Exactly. The reason you will want to use two databases is in the event one
fails your time to restore is half that of a 100 GB database. You could
break it down into four databases if you want.

Problem moving Public folders with "Move all replicas"

Hello Customer,

Thank you for update.

Thanks Ed for the input. Ed is correct, you need the Exchange
administrative rights of your logon user account.

I also think this is a permission issue. Please try the following steps:

1. Start ADSI Edit. In the CN=Configuration container, locate the
following container (where ORGANIZATION is the name of your Exchange 2000
or Exchange 2003 organization and administrative_group is the name of your
administrative group):
CN=Services,CN=Microsoft Exchange,CN= ORGANIZATION ,CN=Administrative
Groups,CN= administrative_group ,CN=Folder Hierarchies,CN=Public Folders
2. Right-click CN=Public Folders , and then click Properties .
3. Click the Security tab.
4. Make sure that the Allow inheritable permissions from parent to
propagate to this object check box is selected.
5. Make sure that the Everyone group has the following Allow permissions:

a. Create named properties in the information store
b. Create public folder
c. Create top level public folder

If the Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate to this
object check box is selected, the Everyone group should already have these
permissions. Make sure that the Deny check boxes are not selected.

For detail steps:

You Cannot Create a New Public Folder in Exchange 2000 Server or in
Exchange Server 2003

I hope these steps will give you some help.

Thanks and have a nice day!

| Thanks for the suggestions Terence. I tried all your suggestions but am
| still in much the same situation.
|
| Unfortunately I cannot see permissions for individual public folders so
| I couldn't check those. The folders appear in outlook when I connect to
| an Exchange account on the old server but when I Right-click a folder
| and select properties I get the message "Can't display folder
| properties." I also get "Unable to display the folder" when I select a
| folder.
|
| All the permissions are set through Exchange System Manager as you
| described with two exceptions: I had already given "Everyone" Full
| Control of Public Folders on both servers. Also I am unfamiliar with an
| account called Exchange Services. It does not seem to exist on either
| server and I don't recall seeing it on other servers. Could it perhaps
| exist by another name? The local server (servername$) does have full
| control on both machines.
|
| I turned on the additional logging suggested in kb842273 and now notice
| that when I try to access the public folders on the old server using a
| temporary account I created (all the other mailboxes have already been
| moved to the new server) I get the following error:
|
| Event Type: Warning
| Event Source: MchangeIS Public Store
| Event Category: Access Control
| Event ID: 1030
| Date: 9/20/2007
| Time: 1:03:41 PM
| User: N/A
| Computer: BART
| Description:
| org failed an operation on folder
| /O=SPRINGFIELD/OU=FIRST ADMINISTRATIVE GROUP/CN=RECIPIENTS/CN=LISA
| EMAIL8E49E84E42B6B74BF6EF36926863E4C401F40E on database "First Storage
| Group\Public Folder Store (BART)" because the user did not have the
| following access rights:
|
| 'Delete' 'Read Property' 'Write Property' 'Create Message' 'View Item'
| 'Create Subfolder' 'Write Security Descriptor' 'Write Owner' 'Read
| Security Descriptor' 'Contact'
|
| The entry ID of the folder is in the data section of this event.
|
| For more information, click http://www.microsoft.com/contentredirect.asp.
|
| This is strange since, as I mentioned above, I have given Everyone Full
| Control. I have also added temp1 individually and given the account Full
| Control to public folders. I find that I also get a mixture of similar
| 1030 events and success events when I use the administrator account to
| add things to public folders on the new computer (which I could do
| successfully).
|
| I tried all the other suggestions in the article you suggested
| (kb842273). Unfortunately none of the applicable suggestions in the
| article solved my problem. Once of the steps in the article did provide
| new information but I can't see any way to apply it toward a solution:
| Message tracking shows messages addressed to the Public Folder Store on
| the new server as successfully categorized, etc., then routed, queued
| for remote delivery and then "transferred to Bart.springfield.local [the
| old server] through smtp." But nothing shows up as having been received
| on the new server (Marge). This essentially confirms what the event logs
| are already telling me.
|
| I would appreciate any further ideas anyone might have. Is there a way
| to cancel the tion (move all s) process? If I could just
| regain access to the public folders on the old server I could copy them
| to a pst file using Outlook and move them that way. Since the old server
| will be retired once I get these &%(#!@*^ public folders moved there is
| no long term need for the two servers to communicate successfully.

Export mailbox contacts from exchange to create a WHITELIST

Posted: 19 Sep 2007 05:14 PM PDT

We are using Sophos Puremessage, Microsoft Intellegent Messaging filtering,
Microsoft Sender ID, and Greylist filtering. I want to tighten the rules
down in Sophos Puremessage, but I also want to minimize false possitives. I
can effectively do this by creating a concise whitelist. That is why I
would like to export the contact email addresses.

Exch2003 parameters affecting non page pool memory?

Well interestingly enough you mention SP2 we just loaded that this month.
The EXPBA says everything is fine but something is not right. You mentioned
the TPC TCP Chimney offload, and recieve-side scaling, as well as NetDMA.
Are these services or more protocols? I appreciate this as this is very
insightful and gives some depth to the issue and not just a do this. Thanks!

If you do have one, there are other things to look at.

Offline defrag of a new message store??

Posted: 15 Sep 2007 04:30 AM PDT

The old store might (but you're using Ent so you could just move those out
too!)

The new stores will not have any large amounts of whitespace after the
mailboxes have been moved to them.

If you're concerned about whitespace, create three new databases,
preferrably one in each SG, and move 1/3 of all mailboxes from your current
single mailstore to them. You can then delete your current store and not
have to worry about extreme excess of whitespace.

Exchange 2003 server bluescreen/rebooting

Posted: 13 Sep 2007 06:15 PM PDT

Thank you everyone for all the information.

I did the HP driver update, Windows update, and Exchange BPA tuning and
there's not been any problems since the reboot on 9/13 (prior to my first
posting). We've sucessfully migrated the remaining mailboxes and public
folders from one of our production Exchange servers. I'll go through the
process to verify everything is off the system then will be decomissioning
the old server next week. I will check into the comments regarding the
memory dump, but hopefully it was just a unique combination of misconfigured
memory & drivers.

My next phase of this project (mentioned in another post) is to do the same
kind of migration with our second old production Exchange. Unfortunately, I
don't have new hardware to migrate this to, so I'll have to settle with
slightly upgraded hardware with a clean install & new configuration.

Thanks again.

Exchange SOMETIMES rejects mail

Posted: 13 Sep 2007 04:44 AM PDT

One more thing, please check your Internet DNS records and be sure that your
MX record points to only valid SMTP hosts for your domain. The problem
you're seeing can occur when you have an MX record with two A records, one
for Exchange and the other one invalid, which causes mail to bounce when
sent to the invalid host.

Disaster Recovery Procedures from Exchange 2007 preparations.

To roll back, you simply "throw away" the DC. Wipe the disk and remove it
from the domain, rebuild Windows, promote it, and allow the old data to
te to it. I don't think you would want the FSMO roles in this DC
except for the schema master, which would be required. In the case of a
rollback, you'd have to seize the schema master role onto another DC.

Microsoft Word - Excel 2013 objects linked to Word 2013 having kerning/display issues

Microsoft Word - Excel 2013 objects linked to Word 2013 having kerning/display issues


Excel 2013 objects linked to Word 2013 having kerning/display issues

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 01:47 PM PDT

This is a mystery - Excel objects that are pasted via link to Word 2013 have kerning issues (the space between letters is inconsistent within words and looks different from the original Excel). 

I've tried copying and pasting via embed Excel object and have tried re-pasting as a link. The only thing that fixes this problem is to open the Word doc on a co-worker's computer and re-paste the Excel object link. Just updating the link in Word doesn't help - it needs to be completely copied over again. And it does need to be linked, the Excel figures are being changed every so often.

I have Word 2013, v 15.0.4659.1000, 32 bit. Any ideas? 

Images are losing their properties and moving in mailmerge

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 01:23 PM PDT

I have a word doc with a number of images. I have used the layout field to orient some of them on the right and some of them on the left (Wrapping Style Square). When I mailmerge them they all end up on the left hand side. I looked at the properties and discovered that they are still wrapped square but it now says "Both Sides" which is not even an option in Word but seems to be in Outlook.

Regardless, the pictures are NOT where they are supposed to be.

Is this fixable?

track changes changed to black !!

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 12:46 PM PDT

Using W0RD of my Office 2013 Pro Plus, I am marking my students' assignments, using track changes.  All my insertions were in red – as I want them to be. Suddenly the insertions changed to black, and I cannot get Word to change the insertions back to be in red!! I do not know what happened.

I have been trying Advanced Options for the last 2 hours, but WORD refuses to change the color of my insertions and corrections!!

How can I return the default color for track changes to be in Red - and if possible to remain in red after I close the document, and reopen it later.

Thanks

Address auto filled fields in Word

Good afternoon,

What is the easiest way to have an address populate when the corresponding business name is entered in Word?  There are only two businesses each with their own address.  I'd like the business name field to either populate as the letters are typed, or a drop box with the two selections; resulting in the address fields filling in on their own.  Looks like this.

Thanks,

Tables and Images Invisible in Print Preview Word 2013

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 11:01 AM PDT

I have a computer I've been working on that will not print tables in this .docx calendar created for this organization. If I open the document in Word on the computer, it looks fine, 12 pages of a monthly calendar complete with dates, events, and pretty headers. But when I click print preview (or try to print), nothing shows except the header and footer. If I try to add in text outside the calendar table, it works just fine and shows up in the preview, even if obscured by table elements or images. If this document is emailed to other computers, the calendar can be viewed and printed just fine. 

Other steps I have tried include converting to other file types (doc, pdf), trying to find a setting that stops the printing of tables (couldn't find), and adjusting print settings led nowhere. The problem was still there as long as it was on that computer. I also tried repairing Office, to no success. I talked to a MS tech who was supposed to email me some troubleshooting steps but I never got anything. So I'm about at wit's end and I don't know what to do next. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 10:28 AM PDT

Hello-

When I am in an open document (Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc.) and click on the Email icon ( ) in the quick access tool bar, a browser opens to Yahoo mail so I can log in and send the document as an attachment.   I would like for Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc. to open Outlook as it has done in the past a million times!  This has been working for me on all previous versions of Office but for some reason it stopped working.  I don't want documents to open up Yahoo.

Even if I go to File | Share | Email | Send as attachment, a browser opens up and not Outlook.   I can still send attachments the 'long' way, by going to Outlook 1st, clicking on a new mail and sending the attachment from the saved location.

Please HELP!!

Start-tag/end-tag mismatch error preventing Word 2013 *.docx file from opening

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 10:25 AM PDT

I'm having a problem similar to what several others seem to have reported, namely I get an error message that says there is a start tag -- end tag mismatch error which prevents me from reopening a word 2013 file. However, it seems almost everyone who has reported this problem has only had it on word 2010 or word 2007 whereas I'm on word 2013. I have attempted, with no success, to fix the document with the available automatic fixes. All else equal, the issue seems to be identical to what others describe. The MS FixIt solution hasn't worked nor has the rebuilder. I really need someone knowledgeable in this area to assist me manually. 

I just wanted to check, before uploading the document in question, whether this thread is still active and if I would receive help with it? I would greatly appreciate any assistance as the dissertation is very precious to me. Thank you in advance for any response (that may or may not come)!

MOS Exam Retake

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 09:25 AM PDT

Hello,

A quick one.

I failed MOS Word Expert Exam but did not use a bundled retake voucher.

If I purchase a new exam voucher, do I get to write the same failed exam or a new exam?

Answers appreciated.

How do I change the page numbers in the header of my document to start at 1 on the second page?

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 08:16 AM PDT

I'm currently trying to format an assignment and I figured out how to remove the page numbers from the title page but now my first body page says page two, for this particular formatting the title page does not count as a page. So how do I make my body page numbers start at 1?

Have Word attachments open in Protected Mode but in Page Layout rather than reading view.

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 08:14 AM PDT

When I open an attachment in Word 2013 it opens in Protected View.

I would prefer to view the document in Page Layout view. I can follow the instructions to disable reading mode at 
http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/word-help/turn-off-reading-layout-view-HP001097160.aspx however it appears that these settings are superseded by the protected mode settings and so the only way I can get my word attachments to open in page layout view is to also follow the instructions to disable protected mode. https://support.office.com/en-us/article/What-is-Protected-View-d6f09ac7-e6b9-4495-8e43-2bbcdbcb6653#bm5

I know it is possible to get a document in protected mode and page layout view at the same time by using the status bar button. It is easy to get into the bad habit of clicking on the Enable Editing button highlighted by the gold strip at top of the screen rather than the smaller status bar button when all you really want is the more familiar page layout view.

Does anyone know if it is possible to default to opening attachments in Protected Mode with Page Layout view?


Widow/orphan control won't stay off

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 07:26 AM PDT

I have figured out my problem on how to make sure I have 25 lines on every page.  However, I have turned off the widow/orphan control at the beginning of my document and set it as my format on this document.  When I get to the beginning of a new page and start typing, if it starts a new paragraph it is turned back on again.  I have to go in and manually uncheck the box and then the remainder of the lines  to make 25 on the previous page will populate.  Any suggestions on why this keeps turning back on? Thanks.

Date format in Comments

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 06:02 AM PDT

I am using Word 2013. If I add a Comment to the document the time added is displayed as, for example, 3 minutes ago. If I open the document a few days later and display the Comment it will say added Sunday, for example.  I need it to simply display the date and time when the Comment was added so is there a way of changing this? I have found out how to format the Comments text but can't see anyway of formatting the time added.

Indent controls missing from the ruler

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 06:02 AM PDT

Split from this thread.

These are the workarounds currently being proposed (open another document first, don't start with a table), but a fix is in the works.

The easy workaround is to open Word Options and immediately click on OK. All those other things people want to do after they open Options are irrelevant.

Yes - Options with OK works perfectly, no need to make any changes.  When the document is closed and reopened they are once again missing

My hanging indent and left indent controls vanished from the ruler today for the first time. I have Outlook 2010 and Word 2010. I have tried opening Word (not Outlook), displaying Options, and clicking OK, but those controls are still missing. I have tried displaying Options in Outlook and clicking OK, but no controls. Ideas?

How to keep the number of lines on a page consistent

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 04:53 AM PDT

I type for a court reporter and the lines on a page need to stay at 25.  I have the line numbers in the left hand margin, but they never stay consistent at 25.  How do I keep it so that there are only ever 25 lines on a page?  Thanks

Creating a link from one word document to another

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 02:55 AM PDT

Hey!

 

I'm using Word to create simple templets (samples of contracts and other forms). I'm using MacroButton NoMacro function. I have 2 documents that are connected, one is the contract and the other is instructions on how to correctly fill out the contract. There are some parts in the first document that are different from case to case, so I wrote examples on what to write in the instructions. I would like to create a link from the first document to the document with instructions. I tried using insert and then Object, but I like the idea which comes from using MacroButton NoMacro, that the person filling in the form doesn't have to erase anything because it disappear when you start writing.

First I tried inserting the object in the brackets as the part of MacroButton NoMacro []. But when I confirmed the code with shift+F9 the icon of the instructions document was visible but it wasn't clickable. It said [For examples on what to write click here (here was the icon)].

I had the same problem when I inserted a hyperlink.

Is it even possible to create a link from one document to another and that it would work in MacroButton NoMacro, so that a person filling in the form would just start writing and the icon and link would disappear?

 

Or do you have a better idea how to execute the whole thing? 

Thanks for your answers!

Repeating a row in a table using tab key (Still having checkboxs appear)

Posted: 29 Oct 2014 12:39 AM PDT

Hi all,

I am building a register and users will on occasion will be required to add their own data. At this stage the register contains 3 checkboxes on each row. Here is where the problem starts, if users run out of lines is it possible for them to hit tab (to open up a new row) and the checkboxes automatically appear in the new row?

Just wanting to know if it is possible.

Thanks in advance,

Spellings and words concatenation problem.

Posted: 28 Oct 2014 11:25 PM PDT

Hi,

I have a problem of spelling concatenation in MS Word 2007. I am using a licensed version of Microsoft Office 2007. Sometimes while working on the documents, whenever I save any document and open it the other day. Almost 20% of the spellings goes wrong in my document.

For Example: Yesterday if I worked on a document containing below lines:

"My name is Shwetha. I work in MS Office 2007". and I would have save it properly.

The next time whenever I open my document, spellings will concatenate and will look like this:

"My nameis Shwetha. I workin MS Office2007".

Every-time I have to recheck the spellings and save it. Again when I will open it, it shows the same error.

Please help me whether I have something missing in my settings as I am very much frustrated with this error.

Template drop down list not showing

Posted: 28 Oct 2014 07:35 PM PDT

Hi,

I'm trying to solve an issue with a template in Word 2007. For some users the drop down list/options are displayed while for others they are not. I have tried copying a users account that works to set up a completely new Active Directory user account to test which doesn't work. To me this would seem to point to the issue being nothing to do with rights or permissions on the local machine or to the templates network mapped drive location. So it would seem it's a setting in word or somewhere on the users profile. I have tried Enabling all the options in Macro - comparing and matching with a working users settings as well as even giving them more rights, Adding the network patch as a trusted resource, etc but still no luck.

Can anyone help?

Many thanks in advance.

Word dcoments will not print two-sided on Lexmark 901 Pro printer

Posted: 28 Oct 2014 04:16 PM PDT

After setting preferences for "two sided" printing on Lexmark Pro 901 printer continue to get one side printing only.  It has been suggested that recent updates to either Windows 7 or MS Word may be causing this problem. Would appreciate  ideas about solutions.

Formatting problem in table cells

Posted: 28 Oct 2014 03:43 PM PDT

Split from this thread.

If I create a table and copy text to it, the top lines of text in the last or second to last row are affected. If I create new rows above and put my text in them, either typed copied or dragged, it looks ok, but as soon as I delete the affected bottom row, the highlight moves to the current lowest row. If my table breaks across pages, the lowest row on each page is affected. It happens if I make a new table in this docx and in old tables.  ?

I'm having a very similar problem on Word 2007. I've narrowed it down to the following: 1) if the last row in the table is a single line of text it displays normally; 2) if there is more than one line of text (or numbers) in the last row of the table, the last line of text displays normally but all the lines above it in the same row display as though they are shaded; 3) I have several tables on the page and the above is true for each table.

It makes no difference which column of the table you're in - if its the last row then the above applies.

Installing Outlook 2007

Posted: 06 Oct 2007 03:27 PM PDT

NEVER import a .pst file unless you don't mind losing data.

Simply copy the .pst file to the new computer and DON'T override any existing .pst file. Then, open Outlook->File->Open->Outlook Data File. Browse to your saved .pst file and open it.

it. I have not actually opened the CD and looked for the file. I guess I'll
try that next.
Thank you for your input.

Thank you for your assistance!

Problem creating MSP's

Thanks for answering, but that's not the same error. It doesn't matter if I
open up the OCT, make no changes and try to create a MSP. Or if I make
changes to the settings and try to create a MSP. All I get is ""Unhandled

I wish it would give me a message like "Security Settings element", at least
I would know what is causing the problem.

*PDF Add In*

Posted: 03 Oct 2007 10:18 AM PDT

There is no download for Word or other Office programs for any version
prior to 2007 to do what the download for2007 will do. That PDF button you
see in Word 2003 is for Adobe Acrobat program. It is a 3rd party program
and is relatively expensive for each license. As many have said there are
third party programs for use with ANY program that can print to a printer
that will create a PDF file. If you need to create a PDF file from a Word
doent I recommend the download and install of PrimoPDF which can be had
here: http://www.primopdf.com/. If you do qualify for and download the 2007
Save As PDF file, you do not need any other program to allow it to work
other than the Office 2007 program/s.

For a free PDF reader, I use Foxit Reader that loads a lot faster than
Acrobat Reader and it can be had here: http://www.foxitsoftware.com/
