Microsoft Word - Independence of heading styles while leaving hierarchical numbering intact

Microsoft Word - Independence of heading styles while leaving hierarchical numbering intact

Independence of heading styles while leaving hierarchical numbering intact

Posted: 30 Nov 2014 02:30 PM PST

My Heading styles are hierarchically related in the numbering system, and Heading 2 (e.g. CHapter 4.7) is based on 1 (e.g. Chapter 4), Heading 3 (Chapter 4.7.5) on 2, etc

Because of this,any change made to Heading 1 will be inherited to Heading 2, etc. However, I wanted to change that, in order to make the styles independent from the point of view of font-related changes. So I chose, for HEading 2, "style based on = (no style)". However, more than making it independent from Heading 1, this also took Heading 2 out of the numbering system, such that now, titles who have Heading 2 applied to them are no longer numbered.

How can I make Heading 2 be independent from Heading 1 while keeping it in the numberning system?

THanks!

Setting defaults for the Insert Picture window

Posted: 30 Nov 2014 01:49 PM PST

when the Insert Picture window opens, it always defaults to

1) a large icon view, and

2) to some random system folder that I never use

Can it be made to always open in

1) Details view, and

2) to a specific folder that I indicate?

Repeat picture formatting

Posted: 30 Nov 2014 01:39 PM PST

To repeat (copy) the formatting of a selection of text to another selection of text, the shortcuts Shift+Ctrl+C and Shift+Ctrl+V can be used, for copying and pasting the formatting respectively.

Is there anything similar to repeat the formatting of a picture inserted in a document, with everything that it entails, e.g. picture size, borders, alignment etc?

Word count fails when counting sections with Endnote citations

Posted: 30 Nov 2014 01:32 PM PST

For example if I select only a word followed by a citation in superscipt, like this:   approach9

automatic word count at the bottom of Word gives me exorbitantly large numbers: 295 OF 5310 WORDS

Hopefully though when I press on that to get details it gives me correct statistics (i.e. 1 word). Why is that?

Microsoft Word, equation, numbering, referencing

Posted: 30 Nov 2014 01:26 PM PST

In Microsoft Word it would be nice to have right aligned automatically generated equation numbers. When referencing to an equation it would be nice to get a list of all equations (in 'professional lay-out'), and then you just have to click on the equation you want to reference.

In Word 2010, how can I get my Outline numbering to show both Level 2 and Level 3 with the same numbering but only one has a heading while the other does not?

Posted: 30 Nov 2014 12:52 PM PST

Nov. 30, 2014 - I could use a quick response to this Word 2010 question, if there is an answer - thanks!

I have a 39 page Word 2010 and my outline numbering holds fine.  However, when I get to page 36 of this 39 page document Level 2 Outline Numbering has no headings for Level 2 - starting with 27.1  Definitions.  I am wondering, since I am using 5 levels of numbering in total in this one document, if I can somehow move each of the numbering levels from level 3 down one level and somehow make Level 3 start at 27.1 so that when I get to page 36, this Level 3 numbering would kick in or be applied and show up as 27.1 but absolutely no headings, only paragraph text beside it instead?  I cannot seem to get it to work no matter how I try to make Level 3 numbering to look exactly like Level 2 numbering (i.e., both would look and work exactly the same but only one would have no headings whatsoever and that is Level 3? Has anyone ever tried this or something else that would work in this situation - thanks?

Set a table in the size of an A4 paper

Posted: 30 Nov 2014 10:40 AM PST

I want to print a document that is in an A3 paper size, in which there is a frame in the size of an A4 paper.

After printed, I cut the paper and have a document in the size of A4, with no frames at all.

How could I set up this frame so it would fit to an A4?

Thanks.

Microsoft 2010

Posted: 30 Nov 2014 09:00 AM PST

I just bought a new computer and on my old one I had Word 2010. I cannot find how to transfer this word over to my new computer. I cannot find any free downloads. When I enter the product key on Microsoft's website it tells me that the key is not valid for word 2013. I do not want to pay another $100 when the 2010 version works just fine.

Is there anyway to get 2010 installed on my new PC?

hi dear experts I would like to get a macro for searching every single text contained in a cell (on a Ms word table) in the next right cell only, and replace it with £ character

Posted: 30 Nov 2014 08:45 AM PST

the find and replace process takes place only in the left cell on each row of a Ms table composed of two columns and N rows, then the next row the same search the text in the left cell in the next right cell and repace it with a character for example the pound £. in other words we copy the text in the first left cell and search it in the next right cell which is the last, and then we replace it, no more than this cell, then the same process for then down next row. 

many thanks in advance.

Bizarre Problem with GRUB

Posted: 21 Feb 2008 02:35 PM PST

On Wed, 27 Feb 2008 08:38:27 -0800, DDave65 wrote:
 
I haven't used CloneZilla, but another tool to consider using is
ntfsclone. I have used it to backup/restore partitions which are
formatted using NTFS. This does not attempt to get information about the
entire disk- just individual partitions.

Here is a command sequence which saves a partition in "special format"
# ntfsclone -s -o ~/sda1.sf.img /dev/sda1

Or use a compression stage to save space:
# ntfsclone -s -o - /dev/sda1 | gzip >~/sda1.sf.img.gz

Here is a command sequence which restores a "special format" image:

# ntfsclone -r -O /dev/sda1 ~/sda1.sf.img


Similarly, for an image which uses compression:

# cat ~/sda1.sf.img.gz | gzip -cd | ntfsclone -r -O /dev/sda1 -

Then this fixup may be required:

# ntfsresize /dev/sda1

The last command is necessary if the "volume size" of the saved image
is smaller than the target partition. It enlarges to final volume to
match the underlying partition size. 
I wouldn't be surprised if CloneZilla is part of the problem you are
having, but I could be wrong. IMO, working with individual partition
images is the way to go. Once you have restored each partition image
separately, then the last step is to fixup the grub loader. This
approach will automatically fixup various mismatches, which I alluded
to in my initial post. IMO, the hard-disk-upgrade mini howto is a good
starting point to begin learning about disk images.

Just for comparison, here are the steps I would follow to do something
similar..

Sequence:
0. Connect target USB device.
1. Use fdisk to setup the target partition layout. BartPE on partition 1,
I think.

2. Preformat linux partitions with the file system of your choice. IIRC,
avoid using ReiserFS. Primarily, I use XFS. It has some neat resize
features, etc.

3. Restore images.
3.a. For NTFS partitions, use ntfsclone. Example shown above.
3.b. For Linux partitions, use tar (tgz archives). Perhaps, using this
sequence:

cat sda2.tgz | gzip -cd | (cd /mnt/sda2 && tar -xvf - --numeric-owner)

4. Fix grub loader.

# grub --no-floppy
grub> geometry (hd1)
grub> root (hd1,1)
grub> setup (hd1)
grub> quit

Note: use geometry (or some other method) to verify how grub has "counted"
your usb disk. "Hit" the proper target.

5. Shutdown and test reboot with usb.

Disclaimers:
1. I hope I didn't make any blatant mistakes. Check my commands carefully
before using them.
2. There are also many assumptions built in to this explanation. Be sure
of any commands you use are appropriate for your system.
3. Understand what you are doing and the underlying principles (hardware,
software, nomenclature, etc.)
4.Practice using the tools which you have selected until you are
comfortable using them.

Fedora Core 6 Memory Stick problem

Posted: 06 Feb 2008 04:04 AM PST


Marc Schwartz <net> writes:
 

Well, I upgraded to f8 as Marc Schwartz suggested and that did fix the
Memory Stick problem; but then with f8 I had several other glitches more
critical than the Memory Stick, so I had to revert back to fc6.

But I recently noticed with fc6 that if I suspend and then resume then both
/dev/sda and /dev/sda1 are automatically created and it recognized the
Memory Stick device on /dev/sda1 and all works fine.

So that is a huge clue: What does the suspend/resume do that the boot does
not do? If I can determine this then I can stick a quick hack into
/etc/rc.d/rc.local (until f9 or so) to mimic at boot time what is done on
suspend/resume. If anyone has any clues for me as what suspend/resume does
in terms of rescanning for such devices it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Tracking Tasks that can be Completed Out of Order

Posted: 18 Nov 2005 08:15 AM PST

You might remove the links and use the task priority setting in conjunction
with resource leveling to set the order they will likely be worked on.
Links should not be used to describe the order you *want* to work on tasks,
they should describe the order you MUST work on the tasks because of
something inherent in the process itself. When building a structure we link
"erect walls" as a predecessor to "install roof" not because we usually do
it that way but rather because the law of gravity says we cannot build the
roof in midair and later stuff the walls in underneath it <grin>. Linking
A->B says that A produces as its output something that is needed as an input
for B and as a result B cannot start until A is done. If that's not true,
remove the link and use something else to model the sequencing.

Loading a Project from Excel

Posted: 17 Nov 2005 12:37 PM PST

Thanks Jack. I checked the doentation and it seems relatively
straightforward. One question I can't find: Can we load multiple projects in
one pass (one project per line)? or is it just open an excel file that has
one line of data, create the project, close that projects, then open the next
line, create the project, close the project, etc.). With a thousand projects
to create, that would be a time consuming job.

Thanks.

Filtering for only cross-project links

Hi Andrew,

Glad to know the formula worked and thanks for the feedback.

Without seeing your project file, it is only a guess, but I assume the
reason why you only need the first part of the formula in a master project
is that if a task is an external successor to one task, it is also an
external predecessor to another task in the project. Tasks actually entered
into the master are internal -- all others (from the subproject files) are
external.

Hope this helps.

Set a start AND end date for a project?

Posted: 16 Nov 2005 08:39 PM PST

A project mathematically simply cannot have a fixed beginning date AND a
fixed ending date. It may, indeed usually DOES, have a date by which it
needs to end but that's not the same thing as the end date. That's the
TARGET for the end date. The project end date itself is that date on which
the last bit of work is done and the project deliverable is completed. That
event may occur before, on, or after the target end date but it occurs
whenever it occurs - Mother Nature and the laws of physics don't care
whether you're on time or late, only the bossand the client cares about that
<grin>. Project's job is to look at the physical work to be done and the
way you deploy your assets to do it and predict when the physical end is
likely to occur so you can create a workable plan that meets the boss's
objectives. When you schedule from the start date forward, you input the
date you will start work and the structure of the work itself, including
your best estimate of the duration of each component task. Project then
computes when the project would end IF you structured the work and assigned
the resources the way you have proposed. If it meets or is better than your
required target, great. If it's not, you don't just designate the date you
want, you must actually revise the organization of the work and/or the
assignment of the resources in order to materially change the computed
schedule so that it finishes where it should.

All of your 1200 tasks should lead up to a finish milestone. Every task in
the project should be linked to a successor except for that one milestone -
if there's no actual activity that is the successor to a given task, the
finish milestone is its successor. You set a deadline on the finish that is
the client's required date. After building your task list, linking them,
and assigning resources to them, you compare the computed scheduled finish
with the deadline for the finish and if necessary iteratively revise the
plan until it's computed to finish on or before the deadline.
