Microsoft Word - Inserting a section break in a table

Microsoft Word - Inserting a section break in a table

Inserting a section break in a table

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 03:25 PM PDT

I am making a form that has two sections: the first section protected and the second section (containing a table) is not. I would like for the first row of the table to be protected, have all other rows unprotected, and keep all of the lines of the table together. When I insert a continuous section break it splits the table so the "keep lines together" option does not work. Is there anyway I can accomplish this?

Any help is much appreciated!

Auto Formatting

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 01:58 PM PDT

I'm sure I am simply missing something but I need the answer this question for work purposes. I have a template in word with several styles. This document is used for reports that we send to clients. Currently I am having an issue with Word 2013 automatically formatting text after bullets. When I press enter after typing text into a bullet, it automatical formats the text for a heading instead of another bullet. I've looked through Auto Correct for anything that may be causing it but after unchecking all the boxes nothing has changed. The bullets themselves are part of a set style as well if that helps. I appreciate any assistance with this issue.

Automatically Spell-check

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 11:52 AM PDT

Is there any way to turn spell-check ON for everyone who edits a saved document? I have a template that is filled in by a number of people, and I am getting complaints that the documents that they produce are full of spelling errors. I would like to automatically spell-check the documents produced by the template. Is there a way to do this? Thank you.

Office Word 13 keeps crashing.

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 11:42 AM PDT

Since I bought this computer about a year and a half ago, my office would crash for various reasons. I don't have them all enumerated but a couple of them come to mind: 

If I copy paste something into word and it is in a different format, (using ctrl + v without first instructing it to paste text only or merge format), word will crash.

My track pad allows me to scroll left to right, and I'll often accidentally do that and it will scroll through the tool bar tabs at the top of word (Home, Insert, Design, Page layout, etc) and then word will crash. 

It feels as if I do anything on Word that requires the program to do a little more work than receiving input from me directly, it will crash. 

It doesn't happen often enough because I generally avoid these behaviors or save pretty frequently, most often auto-save is my savior, but my document WILL crash as often as once or twice a week. 

At this point, I'm just tired of having a defective product that gives me so much heartache. Any ideas, information, questions would be grateful. 

Word displays "Not responding" message

Split from this thread.

What can I do? My Word is so slow I can't even save documents without having this "Not responding" message! I'm trying to finish my dissertation and I am in the process of editing it and it is very frustrating!!

OPening DOC from Word XP in Word 2007

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 10:49 AM PDT

I am hopeful for a simpler answer than I discovered in the MS Support site, but I have a marked up document in Word XP that I want to open and continue to update in Word 200f, but when I try to open it there is a Registry block "to protect me". The only way I see to remove this registry block is to go through a long complicated Registry edit process. Surely there is a better way. Perhaps I can do a conversion of the DOC to DOCX then open them.

Thanks for any advice

Jim

Here is error comment:

This error occurs if you try to open a Microsoft Office document and the file type for that document has been blocked by a registry policy setting. To help secure your computer, Microsoft or the administrator of this computer implemented a registry policy setting that prevents opening this type of file.

To open documents with this file type, disable the registry policy setting. For more information, see Microsoft Knowledge Base article 922850.

How to disable the backspace key in Word 2010 by group policy

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 08:32 AM PDT

Hello Everyone,

I was asked if it was possible to disable the backspace key while in Word 2010 for a keyboarding classroom. I did some research and hopefully someone can fill in the missing pieces.

A quick background on the scenario:

-domain environment with Server 2012 R2

-computers are Windows 7 with SP1

- I want to use group policy to manage one classroom with this setting (computers from that classroom are already in its own folder)

I have already downloaded and installed the group policy add in for office 2010. When I open up GP computer configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates >  I do not see anything for Microsoft word. When I go to the user Configuration I do see settings for Word 2010 but I still do not see how to disable the backspace key.

I guess my question is three part.

How do you disable the backspace key in Word 2010 using group policy computer configuration?

If that is not possible How would I disable the backspace key in user configuration?

Or do something like this have to be done manually on each computer in the local group policy?

Thank you,

Malik

When using Word 2013 Save As PDF, the Document Properties fields in the PDF are blank

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 07:42 AM PDT

When I save a Word document as a PDF using File | Save As and then select PDF (*.pdf) as the type, the document properties fields in the created PDF are blank.  Before creating the PDF I click on the Options button but the Document Properties check box is missing under "Include non-printing information".  How do I get it to include the document properties I've set?

Returning to where you left in Word using Shift + F5

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 07:06 AM PDT

When using Shift + F5 in Word, you return to where you left editing. But when opening 2 documents, Shift + F5 switches you to the wrong/other document. This is a bug IMO.

Microsoft Word 2013 has stopped working

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 06:36 AM PDT

Hi

I got a problem with Microsoft Word 2013. First we got a problem to open 97-2003 word files in Word 2013, but after we set the default printer to Microsoft XPS document writer, we can now open the document/documents. But as soon as i click on print and change to a printer (have tried more than 1 printer) the whole Word just hangs and get "Microsoft Word has stopped working".

We have a lot of Windows 7 X64 Enterprise machines here with Office 2013 X86 installed. And have tried on different PCs and its the same problem at all of them. This is only happens to some Word 97-2003 files not all.

This is what i have tested :

- Tried from another PC

- Repair Microsoft Office 2013

- Uninstalled Office 2013 and done a offscrub and install it again.

- Have inactiveted all Add-ins

- Have put in "Disable hardware graphics acceleration".

- Removed the language pack

- Tried to run the program in Safemode

- upgrade the internal graphic driver

- Tried another driver for the printer

- Change default printer to "Microsoft XPS document writer".

- Tried to copy the file to local disk

We got some machines that is using Windows 8.1 and have Office 2013 x86 and no problem to open and printing this files.

Hope someone knows something about this.

Best Regards

'In line with text' text box to move down in line with the other text in the line.

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 12:36 AM PDT

I wish to know how to make the text box move down to be in line with the line of text it is in, instead of sitting mostly above the line of text. I know how to make an 'in line with text' object/picture move down - by using 'control, shift, F' and adjusting the level, but with a text box, this just moves the text down within the box. Thanks

Microsoft Word 2013 recovering unsaved file

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 12:30 AM PDT

Hello everybody first and foremost thank you for taking the time to read this post. I was working on a paper in Microsoft Word and Word closed unexpectedly. I saved the file once but when i went back to open my project  the word file didn't open as ".docx". The type of file listed is " A file" and when I try to open it a box pops up with the following message: "File Conversion - *name of my file*" with the text " Select the encoding that makes your document readable." then it gives the options "windows (default)", "MS-DOS", and "Other encoding". When I open with "Windows(default)" I get text that looks like this "‹Ÿ±Ö§x3ãMž¡ñ»À‰vìÚÍæ¥#x»MI§‰œ‹©™'ö8"í". I also have a ".tmp" file of my work but am not sure how to convert it. I'd like to recover my work and would appreciate some help. I'm stuck and not sure what to do. I apologize for my formatting. 

MSWord replaces word BUTTON with {HYPERLINK }

Posted: 08 Apr 2015 12:10 AM PDT

I have a word document(say x.doc) that has word "Button" at many many places. All of a sudden, where ever there is "Button", i see following text

{HYPERLINK "http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/something.aspx"}

I highlight above text, R-click and click "Remove HyperLink" or "Select HyperLink". Then the {HYPERLINK....} gets replaced with word Button. This is what I want.

I have spent days working on this document. Now all I see is HYPER Link

Please tell me how to fix this(I want to see Button, not this hyper link).

Any idea how could this have happened? So that I do not make this stuuupid mistake again.

I am using 2003 word

TIA,

I want to do some work (primarily replacing text) on the current physical page.  I presume that I will need to extract and then replace the current page's range.

How is this done?
