Desktop icons

Posted: 31 Jan 2015 10:31 AM PST

My grandson used an mobile app to totally shut down my desktop pc.  I lost my music, pictures and just about everything else.  Upon having it restored, I no longer have an icon to access my writing/communication program.  I can no longer compose a document of any kind.  How can I get into "Microsoft Word" again?

Microsoft word template broken if edited with German instead of English WORD 2010

Posted: 31 Jan 2015 09:39 AM PST

Hello,

I wanted to use the template on the following website:

https://neuraldischarge.wordpress.com/2013/11/05/the-only-phdmasters-thesis-template-for-word-you-will-ever-need/

Unfortunately, it only works with an English version of Word 2010. When using word 2010 with German as interface language, several aspects of template do not work anymore as intended. First, the table of contents is not compiled correctly anymore. Second, headers and footers do not display automatically the document title or chapter title respectively.

I would be grateful for suggestion of how to fix these bugs. Thanks!

Disappearing document in Word 2010

Posted: 31 Jan 2015 09:00 AM PST

My husband has a Lenovo Thinkpad laptop with a usb keyboard and uses Word 2010.  Periodically when he is using Word, the text starts disappearing--it quickly backspaces through the text he has input.  It does not appear to happen when he is using the laptop keyboard.  It does still happen when he tried a different keyboard.  We're trying plugging the keyboard directly into his computer so not sure if the problem will persist.  Any ideas why this might be happening?

Thanks

Word 2013 paragraph.words enumeration in infinite loop.

Posted: 31 Jan 2015 03:02 AM PST

I have discovered that under some circumstances, using Word 2013 under Windows 8.1,  enumerating words in a paragraph goes into an infinite loop after the Unicode 0330 character (and possibly other diacritics).  Word 2007 does not display the same problem.  Has anyone else seen this? I can provide a small file that shows the problem.  Here is some code to demonstrate it.

Public Sub ListWords()
    Dim theStory As Range
    For Each theStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges
        Dim theParagraph As Paragraph
        For Each theParagraph In theStory.Paragraphs
            Dim theWord As Range, WordCounter As Integer
            WordCounter = 0
            For Each theWord In theParagraph.Range.Words
                WordCounter = WordCounter + 1
                If WordCounter > theParagraph.Range.Words.Count Then
                    'MsgBox "The paragraph has a problem", vbCritical
                    Debug.Print WordCounter - 1 & vbTab & theParagraph.Range.Text
                    Debug.Print "Problem after [" & theParagraph.Range.Words(WordCounter - 2).Text & "]"
                    Exit For
                End If
            Next
        Next
    Next
    MsgBox "Finished Processing", vbOKOnly, "Finished"
   
   
End Sub

Microsoft Word 2013

My Microsoft word has stopped working and when I try it says Word needs to be repaired but when I click on Repair it takes me here. It needs to be fixed! To me this is a technical problem. I recently added Microsoft Visio for network diagramming to my Microsoft Office package. What is going on.

Bullet Hanging Indent Adjacent to Text Box

Posted: 30 Jan 2015 05:59 PM PST

Hi there - I'm struggling in Word 2013 with a hanging bulleted list adjacent to a text box.  

I have a text box about 2 inches wide and 9 inches long flush with the left side of the page. The text wrapping for the box is set to square, distance from text 0" top and bottom, 0.13" left and right. The main text of my report is to the right and outside of the text box. I've set up a style called bullet1 that I use throughout the document. The Style settings for bullet1 are indentation: 0", hanging: 0.25", left tab stop: 0.25".

Where I use the bulleted list adjacent to the text box, I cannot get the second line to indent. I've right clicked on the bullet at the Adjust List Indents and have the following settings: Text Indent 0.25", Follow number with Tab character, and add tab stop at 0.25."

I have bullet lists elsewhere in the document where there are no text boxes, and the second line indents perfectly. If I copy/paste those same bullets next to the text box, the second line loses the indentation.

There are no section breaks in my document.

Thanks in advance for your help

Microsoft Word Templates appear in Russian

Posted: 30 Jan 2015 05:23 PM PST

When I open Microsoft Word the start page shows all of the usual Microsoft templates, but they are in Russian instead of English.  All of my saved files are in English and Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint are working properly as well.  How can I change them back to English?
