Microsoft Word - Image displays as a box after pasting it from a web page

Image displays as a box after pasting it from a web page

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 02:34 PM PST

Split from this thread.

I copied a web page text and image into MS Word 2013.

Text is displayed but the image is just a box.

MS Word 2013 options are set as:

"Picture placeholders" is NOT checked,

 "Show drawings and text boxes on screen" is checked

What else could be causing the issue?

HTM/HTML Size Change after Word Document Save As using Different Computers

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 12:24 PM PST

I maintain a web site and use MS Word to create the HTM/HTML files. I've always used a desktop to first create the word documents and the web pages appeared correctly. After beginning to use my Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro (3200 x 1800 Display), the images on the web pages from saving the exact same Word document as a web page using the Yoga are much larger than those saved on my Dell desktop. Does anyone know any settings that can be changed to avoid this problem?

Merge field in Excel is displayed as 12:00:00 A.M.

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 10:54 AM PST

My data source in Excel has 3 different cells, all of which contain mixed data (i.e. if, date, concatenate functions in combination with text).  The setting for all 3 fields are exactly the same, and the cells display the information correctly within Excel.  However, when I merge the info to Word, the info contained in the first cell merges over correctly, but the 2nd and 3rd cells display "12:00:00 A.M" even though they are not blank cells.  How can I fix this?  Again, all 3 cells have mixed data (if, date, concatenate functions in combination with text).  TIA.

Mail Merge need to Round Up not to nearest

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 09:40 AM PST

Is it possible to make any number that is not whole round UP to the next value. Using the switch\#0 only rounds it to the nearest number.

For example {196/12\#0} is giving me 16 and I need it to show 17

Full Page Graphic and Uncooperative Text Wrapping

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 09:40 AM PST

Hi All,

I'm putting together a document that has full page graphic sections. I'm trying to set it up so it'll be like this:

Page 1
This page has text for the whole page, and when it gets to the end it breaks-

Page 2
[All one big graphic e.g. just a big rectangle, and there is no text on the page at all]

Page 3
-and then the last sentence from page 1 continues here, and text continues normally.

PROBLEM IS, Word 2007 appears to demand that every page has a least one line of text. For example, if I set up a small text box on a page with text wrapping, the text starts above it the box, breaks, and continues after; if you make the box bigger, more and more text will leave the page, until there is only one line of text on the page, and it will -never- go away, even if it means overlapping your unoverlappable graphic.

Any help solving this issue would be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks.

How to make Drop Cap Point Size Consistent

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 08:42 AM PST

In implementing drop cap in Word 2010, I've found that a "W" is at a point size of 41.5 while a "B" (and all other letters) is at a point size of 33.5.   I specified the drop caps to be 2 lines.  The body font size is 11-points.  The font I'm using is Plantagenet Cherokee.  I have line spacing at Multiple 1.05 lines.

Because the "W" is at a greater point size, it is ignoring the 2 lines specified and is actually 3 lines.

How do I fix?

Thanks

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 07:17 AM PST

Hi, 

i'm not sure if this is a windows problem or a microsoft word problem. sometimes any microsoft programs i'm running (e.g word, powerpoint) exit and the task bar at the bottom of my screen goes and i'm left with a blank screen with the colour i chose as my theme colour. if i open my task manager and view programs  running, chrome, spotify e.t.c are still running. any ideas why this is happening and how to fix it?

Thanks in advance,

Rhys

P.S i scanned my computer it's not a virus

Edit: i scanned my computer it's not a virus re scan has shown i had malware, i think this might fix it but please keep suggesting any fixes just in case :)

I have tried other Microsoft applications and the same message appears when saving excel and other applications

How to copy from WORD (2013) without the formatting

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 05:43 AM PST

Hi,

I need to copy FROM Word (2013) to another application  (Reference Manager).  This application has NO "Paste text only" option and "Ctrl/Shift V" does not work.  The trouble is that when I do a simple "Paste" or "Ctrl/V", the clipboard delivers not only the text but additional characters related to the formating.  

Here is an example:  The WORD document contains the string "123".  If I make a copy and paste it into my application, here is what I get:

"PrFont34Bin0BinSub0Frac0Def1Margin0Margin0Jc1Indent1440Lim0Lim1123".

This happens only if copying from WORD, but not from PowerPoint or Excel.

How do I make "Copy" to only copy the text, not the formatting ?

Windows 7 Microsoft Office Starter 2010 Click to Run

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 05:36 AM PST

Can anyone help me with my problem?

I purchased my computer from Dell with Windows pre-installed. I then started experiencing problems with Word and Excel and can't access them because of Click to Run configuration failure. I have looked on several forums and visited Microsoft Support and have tried to uninstall Click-to-Run/Office through the Control Panel. This doesn't work and keeps coming up with error messages saying to try again. I have also tried to uninstall by going through Accessories to Installer. Again it doesn't work. I also tried doing a repair on Click-to-Run which seems to work but it didnt have any effect on the problem at hand.

I have tried all of the FixIt options I have come across and tried to reinstall using the Product Key which doesn't work (I have checked and re-checked it a dozen times).

I have the original Operating System disk that came with the computer and I did do a full back up and then re-installed but this hasn't helped.

My last attempt was to try to again uninstall Click-to-Run and then try to switch to an MSI Based Office edition. Nothing seems to work.

Basically I can't access Word of Excel at all.

There is a disk drive called Microsoft Office Click-to-Run 2010 (Protected) (Q:) which seems to be empty/won't let me do anything with it but from what I've read on the forums I should just ignore this.

I am a complete techno-phobe and have tried to follow the various step by step instructions posted on the forums but none of the instructions tell me what I should do when the "fixes" don't work. I really do need an "idiot's guide". Is anyone able to help please?

Thanks

Insert/Imbed Youtube video (or any video) into Word 2010 Starter

How do make word 2013 print go directly to the print properties dialog box

Posted: 20 Feb 2015 10:40 PM PST

In Word 2007, when I would hit the PRINTER icon in the toolbar, it would take me directly to the printer's Print Properties. Now in Word 2013 (365), when I click on the PRINTER icon (or go through FILE/PRINT), it brings up a whole new page, and then I also have to click on the Print Properties, which now makes an extra step. Is there a way to bring the printer dialog box up directly into the printer's print properties dialog box?

printer HP Deskjet 1320

printing only blank pages from a Word Doc, but did print a test page when instructed to do so by HP Solutions.  Printed from 2 other sources today, but only blank pages when trying a created Word Doc.

1 hour later:  HP 1320 will print Excel docs, but none of my Word Docs; tried some, other than the one that I had previously tried to print.
