Microsoft Word - themes in word 2013


themes in word 2013

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 03:08 PM PST

I am working on an assignment regarding changing colors in themes. The instructions are as follow:

click the Design tab and format the document as follows:

click colors in the document formatting group,

click customize colors

click accent 1 arrow and select red from standard colors group.

I have completed these steps and the original color (retrospect was the theme) is replaced with red; however, the solution shows the text as blue

Am I not understanding the concept of themes as to changing the color of the font in the headings?

Thank you.

Upgrade to Word 2010 Without a disc.

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 01:42 PM PST

I won a free upgrade to Word 2010 from Microsoft a few years ago and was given the Security code to input once I downloaded the program from a link that was provided to me. In other words, I had no disc to install. I have since been given a computer that was my husbands as my old computer was destroyed. How can I upgrade the Word 2007 that is presently installed on it to the version of 2010 that I had used for years without a disc?

It s a dark and stormy night

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 12:39 PM PST

Office Professional 97 on win7. Been working fine for years. All of a sudden clicking in the Word shortcut gets a response that Word is missing or has been moved. I think it was related to Avast virus detector.  Avast reported a virus win32:evo-gen[SUSP] every time I tried to click on the Word shortcut. I think it's a FALSE POSITIVE.  I ran AVG and it did not report a virus found when I tried to execute Word shortcut but I get the same message that the Word shortcut had been moved or is missing. . I uninstalled Avast changed to AVG and reinstalled Office Pro 97 from the cd. Now winword.exe is back where it belongs and I can run Word. PROBLEM: Now my Word icons on my desktop have no W (Word Icon) just a generic icon. Properties show the file is a Word doc. When I click on the generic icon Word opens the document and seems to work fine. How do I get my icons back so at a glance I know which icons are word docs?

Thanks,

John

How do I make "All Markup" the default in Word 2013?

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 12:09 PM PST

Split from this thread.

I want to open document that have mark-up with all markups visible upon opening, so that I don't have to enable editing and then go to show all mark-up.  They open with simple markup only so you can't see the comment bubbles - only their existence, but not their contents.  I want to open a Word document that has comment bubbles so all mark-up shows including the contents of the bubbles.  Can you help?

Need to remove editing feature in Word Starter 2010, that is surrounding the text area.

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 11:17 AM PST

I'm sorry I don't know the proper description for this function. I'm trying to cancel it so I can work with a document.

This is present whenever I open a document. It is a line bordering the entire text areas. It looks like it moves and or re-sizes the text area. It has a tiny circle on each corner,  and in the middle of each side. When I click anywhere around the enclosed area, it highlights the entire text area that it surrounds. And it won't allow for putting the cursor within the area, as to make changes, etc.

I'm sorry for the bother, I'm sure it's a very elementary function; I just don't know the term, so searching for the correct help is fairly impossible. I'd appreciate anyone for their help.

Thanks,

Draft view is the default view when opening Word

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 09:41 AM PST

I have Office 365.  When I open Word or a Word document it opens in draft view.  However, when checking the options for Word, the open in draft view box is not checked.  What do I need to do to get the documents to back to opening in print view?

word says file is locked by the user trying to open it, but its opened by another user

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 09:24 AM PST

Person X has FOO.doc open.

Person Y goes to open FOO.doc.

Pop up on Person Y screen, "can not open file, already opened by person Y"

Person X closes file.

Person Y opens file no problem. 

And this happens no matter who attempt to open if its already opened, it always says this ONE user is the person using it. 

Both systems fully up to date. Network share from Server 2008. All meta data cleared for doc. 

In short, no matter WHO has this file open or WHO tries to open it, it says person Y has it open when it is opened. There are naturally no issues when its closed anyone can open it and it does save meta editor names.

I've also changed the owner in NTFS and this has no impact. 

This problem here is when its left open, the incorrect name shows up (the same name every time) so staff has no clue where to go to close the file. 

Yes, I've read many threads here and tried those that apply, none have resolved it. 

Deleting many Styles quickly

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 09:08 AM PST

I am working on modifying a document that I scanned using AABBYY Professional OCR scanning software and exported to Microsoft Word.  I am not sure if it is just the result of that method of creating the original document or not, but there seem to be very many styles based on the base style Body Text. 

Examples:  (body text (1), body text (2), body text (2)+10pt., body text (2) + times roman, body text (3), ... body text (31), etc., etc., etc. )

There could be a hundred different variations.  I tried to make sure that these were not in use by using the Clear formatting option for the entire document, saving it, closing it, and reopening it.  But the styles still remain in the styles list.  I want to get rid of these and just have the basic default Word styles available in the styles list, but it seems that the only way to remove them is one at a time, confirming each deletion.  This is laborious and annoying.  Is there any way to clear and remove them all at once?  Is there any way to reestablish a default template without them?

How change default privacy options - clear "remove personal information" box?

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 07:58 AM PST

I want to set the default option so that the "remove personal information" is NOT automatically checked for every new document.  I do a lot of editing and need to show doc markup with author specified - so I don't want to have to find the (buried and impossible to find without online help) privacy settings and uncheck the "remove personal information" box every time I work on a new document.  Is this possible?

Corrupt .rtf file in Word 2010

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 04:04 AM PST

Hello everyone,

Last night, my computer rebooted itself unexpectedly while I was accessing a Word document. I was constantly saving the document, so I expected that it would come back up when the computer rebooted. 
Every time I try to open it in Word, it says that the file is corrupt and cannot be read. 
I have tried the Open & Repair function. I have also tried the Extract Text from All Files function. When I did the latter, the document came up to about 1,000 pages worth of different codes. 
When I open it in WordPad, the most recent things I saved did not come up. I am absolutely sure that I saved what I was working on. 
Is there any way I can fix this corrupt file? It is a crucial part of an assignment.

Save and Send Word 2010

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 12:52 AM PST

Hi

Had a query recently: Word document in 2010 needing to be saved and to be read in 2000...

Is this a "Save as.... 1997-2003.doc  or a "Save & Send"... 1997-2003.doc?  Never remember which.

In the Save & Send would I need to add something to  the Compatibility mode option?

Inserting Building Blocks using UserForm

Posted: 24 Nov 2014 12:11 AM PST

Hello again,

I have another question regarding another question I had earlier on.

I got this code from Greg Maxey (thank you very much!):

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'A basic Word macro coded by Greg Maxey
Dim oBm As Bookmark
Dim oRng As Word.Range
  Set oBm = ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("bmTarget")
  Set oRng = NormalTemplate.BuildingBlockTypes _
    (wdTypeAutoText).Categories("General").BuildingBlocks(Me.ComboBox1.Value).Insert(oBm.Range)
  ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Add "bmTarget", oRng
  Me.Hide
End Sub

I wanted to have a userform with a single drop down (combobox), that asks the user to choose between "option1" and "option2". The bookmark in the document is the same, but the building block will either be "BBoption1" or "BBoption2", depending on what was chosen in the combobox.

Wouldn't there need to be some part of the code representing that? So that one part puts the "BBoption1" in the document and one puts "BBoption2" in it?

Thank you very much!!!

Mail Merge Does Not Work When Using HTML

I am trying to create an email merge in Word 2013 (office 365).  I can do it on other computers, just not this one.

Office 2010 Disable COM Addin

If I go under MANAGE (COM Add-ins), nothing shows up under COM Add-ins. How do I delete this add-in?

Word Template

Customizing the Ribbon

How do I redefine a keyboard shortcut?

Posted: 23 Nov 2014 03:14 PM PST

Split from this thread.

Good evening,


I would like to ask if there is the possibility to redefine this shortcut (Shift+ F5) in Word (2007)?

Cause I could not find the name asigned to this shortcut in my native language (in english, I guess, it's "Go Back" or descriptive: "Return to the last edit spot" (as I browsed the internet)). I' ve found (in Word) in Word Options -> customize -> all commands only a command, which I don't know if it corresponds to Go Back, but it has no icon assigned and what's more when I click "Shortcuts: Customize tab", there is no such command (among All commands). Therefrom I guess, this shortcut command is not customizable. But I know (from browsing internet) that there occures (by someone) -4 last edit spot, or -3 last edit spot. When I put this icon (which had no shortcut assigned) on the quick icon bar and tried, found out it's -4 last edit spot. When I try Shift+ F5, it cycles only in three last edits. Also found out there is either Shift+ F5 or Ctrl+Alt+ Z keystroke kombination assigned generally to Go Back. By someone, this works with Shift+ F5, by someone, with Ctrl+Alt+ Z (in different word versions, but also the same ones)... 

So I would like to ask if there is the possibility (to the first question), because I did not found the command to which this shortcut (Shift+ F5) is assigned in Word 2007. I woud like to redefine the shortcut, when it's possible with the least last edit spot, that means 3, to a more convenient, just the Ctrl+Alt+ Z case. 

So I would like to ask, if it's possible?


Thank you for your answer.

Regards, Jaro

Steve,
Thank you. I agree with you 100 percent and have had formal training in PM
and teach those skills along with the software. However, this training was
done as a requirement of a state workforce grant and apparently, they need to
see a pre and post assessment on software skills as well as for the PM
training the group received.

What percent of projects are late and overbudget?

Posted: 11 Nov 2005 06:23 AM PST

Hi Dan,

I can't give you figures, but I can suggest you define what is meant by
"success". On time and within budget is not a valid measure. I would be so
bold as to suggest that some 90% of properly planned projects would be on
time and within budget if they were allowed to progress from start to
completion without any interference. The prime reason why projects appear
go astray is because the parameters on which the project was planned, are
changed frequently as the project progresses, without due acceptance of the
subsequent changes to completion date and extra costs. Indeed, in spite of
all the changes to specifications, projects are more often than not unfairly
measured against the originally stated completion date and budget. If only
the PMs could be left alone to get on with the job without change!

How can I input a deadline with an option of 5 days delay is ok?

Posted: 11 Nov 2005 02:40 AM PST

First of all, you shouldn't try to set start and finish dates for tasks at
all - these are normally calculated values. In fact the whole reason
scheduling software such as Project exists is to calculate those dates for
you. The start date is calculated as the earliest possible start based on
project kick-off date and the durations, links, etc of all the tasks leading
up to the task in question. The finish date is the calculated from start
date plus the estimated duration it will take to complete the work. To show
that it needs to be completed by a certain date, set the deadline entry on
the task's advanced tab to that date.

I notice your example is a task that lasts an entire year. A task is a
discrete block of work done by a single set of skills that results in a
single deliverable and very, very rarely would such a thing last a full
year. In fact, the general rule of thumb is called the "8/80 Rule" which
says if the task is less than 8 hours in duration you're micro-managing to
excess but if it is more than 80 hours you haven't broken things down far
enough to actually be able to manage it at all.

How do I prioritize tasks in Project 2003?

Posted: 10 Nov 2005 02:16 PM PST

One of the primary uses of Critical Path Scheduling is to prioritze
tasks. Tasks with less slack have a higher priority than tasks with
more slack. Of course, you have to take in other factors as well, like
risk, complexity, etc. But certainly slack should be a factor.

Graphic Images in E-mail Templates

Posted: 26 Jun 2005 08:03 AM PDT

hi Ken,

The best way to use this is to put the graphics you want to use on an
accessable share, remember if the E Mails are going to an external company /
person the share sould be publically accessable across the web.

The best way is to FTP the graphic up to the share, use IE to display the
graphic at that location, and just "right click and copy" to copy and switch
back to the E mail template editor and "ctrl insert"

Hope this helps

Thanks for replying Tim.
I hope there will be no issue with the different combination of OS and
migrating the DB over to different edition.
If somebody experience any kind of issue in migration of DB over to another
edition, please let me know.
There are two other application integrated with CRM; I just need to see how
they are accessing the database server. One of them has different database on
the same DB server. [Those application should be using some consistent way to
get the database server name by using sdk etc.]

tion is turned on, by the way and I am thinking to generate the
script and run on the new DB server. I don't think there will be any issue.

Having option for switching back to old db server is definitely a blessing
here. Thanks.

admin is owner causing problems

Posted: 23 Jun 2005 09:19 PM PDT

There aren't a lot of options. Unfortunately, related objects follow the
Account when the ownership changes. You can try to mass-assign the reps
accounts to them and they will then get the appropriate activities back, but it
might not be as clean as you want. Either way, you're in for some heartache on
this one.

I am in charge of cleaning up the CRM database after an implementation gone

I have noticed that most of the Accounts, Leads, Contacts, etc. are owned by
the CRM Admin account, and Account created exclusively for administering the
CRM application.

This is more than likely because all the data was originally imported under
this account.

The problem is that when you log on with the Admin account you see a ton of
past due activities. I'm expecting that is because the admin account is the
owner of the CRM account. We had a bright idea in a meeting to re-assign all
of the 1000 or so accounts that were owned by the CRM Admin account to the
Administrative Assistant of the respective Terrority.

Now all of our Sales folks are screaming that they don't have their
activities anymore.

What can we do about this with the least minimal impact?

CRM Administrator Account Lockout problem

Posted: 23 Jun 2005 07:56 AM PDT

Restoring the DB won't be enough as the AD group membership will also have been
removed.

If you are comfortable playing with GUIDs, you can do the following to try to
get it working...

First, find the GUID for both the User (SystemUserBase table) and the System
Admin role for the appropriate BU (RoleBase). With this information, you can
then do the following:

- Add a corresponding record into the SystemUserRole table
- Add the user to the correspondig AD group (in the correct OU)

That hoefully will fix it for you.
