What Word or Windows Setting Could Prevent Part of a Word Doc from Printing?

Posted: 01 Apr 2015 03:00 PM PDT

I'm stumped. Our OS is Windows 7. We have several Word (2007) docs (they are reminder notices) that contain a graphic image at the top of the page, and a text box underneath it. We've been using these docs for years. I recently needed surgery and we had a Temp help out in my absence. She called me one day to say that these reminder notices were not printing any text. A couple of days later, I was able to remotely log in and verify, using Print Preview, that what she told me was correct. I figured she just changed something in the file--e.g., the position of the text box, forward/backward placement of objects--and I could fix it. But I couldn't. I tried several different printers, thinking that perhaps she'd changed a printer setting, but none of them would print the text. So I went to a version of the reminder notice that hadn't been changed in 2 years. It ALSO was no longer printing the text! It was happening with all of those files. I then e-mailed a sample file to my Windows 7 computer at home; it prints fine. I cannot guess what setting might be producing this result. Any suggestions?

Creating permanent keyboard shortcuts in Office 2010

Posted: 01 Apr 2015 03:00 PM PDT

How do I make keyboard shortcuts permanent?  I use the section sign and paragraph sign a lot in my day to day typing.  In older versions of word once I created the keyboard shortcuts (alt+s and alt+p, respectively) the shortcut was permanent.  In Word 2010 if I close the document where I created the shortcut the document is lost and I need to redo the shortcut - or go through the insert symbol process - every time I open a new document.  How do I change this?

My Office 2013 keeps crashing

Posted: 01 Apr 2015 02:36 PM PDT

Good afternoon,

My entire Office 2013 keeps crashing. For example: I start up Word 2013, and after 2 or 3 minutes of reading/writing/editing/saving it just freezes with the message that 'it does not respond'. Same applies for PowerPoint and Excel (programs I use regularly). Please please help me out with this one. 

I've tried to put off the bluetooth add-in, I've tried a repair, I've tried to run Word (for example) in safe mode, I've tried to update my NVIDIA drivers, I've tried to delete some register keys, I've tried a full uninstall (using a third party program, because my uninstaller also gets stuck during the uninstalling phase) and reinstall, but it all didn't work and I'm getting a little bit grumpy. I've even tried the Microsoft fixit....

Thanks in advance!

Word 2010 - Table of Content - level 1 appears as title case

Posted: 01 Apr 2015 10:31 AM PDT

Hi

We need to have three styles for our schedules in our documents: Schedule heading which are auto numbered to be in upper case (e.g SCHEDULE 1); when it is cross referenced in the document it is lower case (e.g. see schedule 1) and in the TOC it should be in sentence case (e.g. Schedule 1). 

Schedule style has been set as ALL CAPS in Font diaglog. In the Defined Multilevel List it is set as lower case to keep the schedule in lower case when cross referenced in the document, however this has affected the TOC which is displaying in lower case.  

I therefore edited the TOC code to include Caps so that the schedule appears in title case ie {TOC\*Caps\h\z\t\"Headng1,1,Schedule Heading 1,Appendix Heading,1"}. This seems to have resolved the schedule issue (as it is always one word with a number) but now all my level 1 heading in the TOC is in title case e.g. Welcome To The Firm. How can I have the TOC levels and schedule in sentence case?

Any adivce and help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

WORD HEADER and FOOTER

Posted: 01 Apr 2015 09:16 AM PDT

HELLO:  ITS ME AGAIN!!

HI: This time I need help on using WORD 2013. I have Office University 2013 and am using Word 2013 on my W7 laptop. When I go into Headers and Footers, and use the Header and want to use "SIDELINE" header bar for my document. After inserting "Sideline" header and keying in the title and using the "end" key to take me out of the title area and before inserting my name to the Author area, I went to HOME, then using the BULLET list wanted to insert a "bullet". What I wanted to do is put it AFTER the title andBEFORE my name. However, the SIDELINE header inserts the bullet before the title making it look like a long run type of title. There is no separation, except if I use the space bar cpl of times. How can I get the BULLET between the title and the author, and not having it before the title.

IT JUST DOESNT LOOK RIGHT with the bullet before everything. I wanted the bullet in the middle to distinguish between the two areas.

Any help is always appreciated.

Thanks,

Remove time stamp on tracked changes without removing author

Posted: 01 Apr 2015 07:34 AM PDT

I want to remove all the timestamps for tracked changes and comments, but leave the author of the change.  We have multiple people editing, so it is important to keep the author info, but I don't want to share the times changes were made.  I know I can remove ALL personal information, but that removes the author too, which I need to keep.  I want to remove ONLY the timestamps.

The decimal tab isn't working in a table

Posted: 01 Apr 2015 06:38 AM PDT

I am trying to align a column of numbers in a table using the decimal tab. All the numbers have decimals (except for the total, which is 100). I do what I always do--select the decimal tab from the ruler and place it where I want it. But it has no effect at all. I've checked the alignment of the column--it's left aligned--and there are no other tabs. It's the first time I haven't been able to do this. Can someone help?

Thanks!

Word Macro to find text, extract a number from the selection, and then copy and paste to another place

Posted: 01 Apr 2015 12:26 AM PDT

Hello,

I have a number of word documents with text/table headings in the format:

TABLE n

text text text text

Table n:

I'm trying to write a macro that will extract the number from the lower case heading ("Table n:") and paste it into the upper case heading above (TABLE n) so that they are always consistent... Something along the lines of the following steps:

  1. Search document for "TABLE [0-9]{1,}" to find "TABLE x"
  2. Once found, search downwards for "Table [0-9]{1,}:" to find "Table y:"
  3. Somehow extract the number "y"
  4. Search upwards to find "TABLE x" again
  5. Replace the number "x" with the number "y"
  6. Repeat for the whole document

Basically, wherever "TABLE x" appears in the document, find the text "Table y:" that appears beneath it, and replace the number x with the number y.

(I know this seems like a strange/convoluted way to do it, but all of the table headings and numbers are generated as text in an external program so I can't set it up differently... And I'm not able to use sequence fields for the upper case 'TABLE' headings since they don't appear above every table in the document, just some of them.)

I would really appreciate any help on this!

Thank you

Email address reverts to a "{hyperlink: mailto: emailxxxxxx}" each time I hit the sapce bar or enter key

Posted: 31 Mar 2015 04:34 PM PDT

Hello,

I have an issue with Word and Outlook each time I enter an email address on a Word or Outlook email, when I press the enter key it reverts to "{hyperlink: mailto: emailxxxxxx}" and the hyperlink is gone. I had a different person log in with another profile on the same PC and it does not do this so this is profile specific. I'm using Windows 7 x86 and have made sure that  "Internet and network paths with hyperlinks" check box is checked in Auto Correct. I would rather not create a new profile and fiddle around with the registry so does anyone know how to get this fixed? This happens in Word 2010 and Outlook 2010. Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks,

Dan

MS Word PDF Files - How To Save with Bookmarks Panel open

Posted: 31 Mar 2015 04:18 PM PDT

MS Word 2007 exports files as PDF.

But is there a way to generate a PDF file that opens with the bookmarks panel displaying? With the Adobe PDF writer, you have an option under Preferences for Open File which allows to you to set the initial view parameters - but there doesn't seem to be any equivalent with the MS Word 2007 PDF Export.

(Reason being, I'm doing a tech-writing job for a corporate, and getting any extra software installed is difficult/impossible.)
