Word 2010 Multi-level lists

Posted: 22 Jan 2015 03:05 PM PST

I am formatting a large document, 95-100 pages.  I have set up styles for headers.

Header 1 = 1 Title

Heading 2 = 1.2 Title

Heading 3 = 1.2.1 Title

I was able to get to heading 3 without any problems, when I got to 3 it wouldn't continue numbering, and took 3 to be like 8, so then I tried to change the list level manually and it changed all the headings to 3, 3.1 3.1.1. etc... I removed all formatting from heading 1 and tried to just use bullets multilevels but it still doesn't recognize the change in level 3. 

How do I fix this?  

^g graphic wildcard is not recognized

Posted: 22 Jan 2015 02:29 PM PST

I have a problem with the ^g wildcard in the search engine: when I try to use it in my query, it says that it isn't a valid wildcard. This even though when I select "graphic" from the "special" menu, it put exactly ^g into my string. Someone knows how to solve this problem (or the right wildcard to search graphic elements)?

Bug in Word 1.5

Posted: 22 Jan 2015 02:07 PM PST

I received a document in my email. When trying to open in my iPad (with Word 1.4) everything went smoothly. But when opening in my iPhone (Word 1.5) I received and error.

Since then I tried a number of combinations: uninstalled 1.5 and installed version 1.4 in the iPhone, everything worked great. Updated iPad to version 1.5, no more opening this specific file.

After the file is opened in 1.4 and saved inside IOS Word, it opens in 1.5 too.

 I Tried the solution posted in this link, it didn't work: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_mobile-word/office-for-ipad-has-a-critical-bug-in-latest/220db336-51e6-4eb7-8c06-1f98d29623da

Is it possible to create a TOC using Section Numbers rather than Page Numbers?

Posted: 22 Jan 2015 07:34 AM PST

I'm familiar with creating TOCs and use of styles, but a colleague has asked if it's possible to create a TOC that displays the section number, rather than the usual page numbering. Their document consists of a large number of sections, each with their own header & footer and each one restarting page numbering at 1. It doesn't then make sense to create a "normal" TOC to refer to, as every page number is 1!

The heading styles used in each section don't necessarily contain numbered lists. Would it be possible to create a TOC style that contains section numbering for example...?

TIA,

Amanda

Set Max Length of Text Field in Word 2013 Fill-able Form

Posted: 22 Jan 2015 07:31 AM PST

The legacy fields allowed a way to set the max length (Example: if I did state  - I could set it to 2 and they could only put in CT - not Connecticut or Conn, etc)

The legacy fields are no longer there and I cannot see a way to do it with the new fields.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you. 

Memorize Repeated Text

Sharing address book in Outlook 365

Posted: 22 Jan 2015 06:53 AM PST

Hi,

situation:

Secretary has Access (read/write/change) to boss' Mailbox, including contacts. She sees contacts in her Outlook Client and can Change, add delete them.

Sometimes she has to write letters to the boss' contacts with word. In Word there is the function to insert addresses right out of the address book into documents or envelops (in the Mailing section).

But when using this feature the secretary only sees her own and the global address book, not the address book of her boss.

I already tried to set the boss' address book as e-mail address book in properties, but there is no such option for this item.

I also recognized that the Email Button that is visible in the ribbon when I see the personal contacts disappears when clicking on the boss' address book.

Does anyone have an idea to import occasionaly single addresses from a shared address book into word documents easily?

Thanks

Regards

Specific documents will not print

Posted: 22 Jan 2015 06:14 AM PST

Hello,

I have a client computer that is having print issues from Word 2010.  At her location they use two Toshiba eStudio 556 copier that are set to private print. When she sends a group of documents to the printer to be retrieved later, sometimes not all of the documents will be waiting for her at the printer to be retrieved.  According to windows, the job is sent and shows up in the queue but it is not at the printer.  When we recreate the document by copy and pasting the text to a new blank document, it prints fine.  Also, when the job is sent to the other copier, that is using the same driver and is the same model, it shows up just fine.

This is a confusing issue that I have encountered in the past but was only able to solve by reinstalling Windows and Office.  I am hoping that there is an easier fix that I am missing.  I have tried running a repair on Office, changing the print drivers, and changing the document template.  If anyone else has experienced this and has a different fix, help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

HIDDEN SCROLL BARS IN OFFICE 2013

Posted: 22 Jan 2015 05:06 AM PST

I find the hidden scroll bar in office 2013 annoying.  I have to search for the scroll bar and then locate the slider every time I am working on documents.  When the scroll bar disappears it does not turn over that space to the document so in my opinion this is just a needless feature the included just to sell another version of office.  Anything the increases the work to do a task should never make it into the product.

So anyway, how can you disable the hiding scroll bars so they are always visible when working in office 2013.

Office 2013 is not user friendly

Posted: 22 Jan 2015 04:05 AM PST

Hi there,

I tried the trail version of Office 2013 suite and very disappointed as it goes back to the horrible sharp/square look with no round edges, ie; no Aero features" it is way too hard on the eyes when you are on it all day at work for 8 to 10 hours Mon-Fri. On my personal computer is sooooooooooooooo much better with the aero features.

My question,

if I upgrade to Office 2013 from 2010, how do I (or can I) turn on the Aero feature on all my Office Suite??

Cheers,

Barry

Unspecified error while opening word documents with math equations

Posted: 22 Jan 2015 03:54 AM PST

Help! My file is corrupted! Unspecified error location part /word/document.xml

I've been working on a math assignment, but when I try to open it, Word staunchly refuses. The error message reads "We're sorry. We can't open mathass1.docx because we found a problem with it's contents."

Details read "Unspecified Error. Location: Part/word/document.xml Line 2, Column 0".

I've scoured the internet for a fix. Most involve unzipping the file, and editing the xml file. The fix has not worked for me.

I´ve also seen tried a fix which should edit the end and the beginning of the document, but that doesnt work either, since its not the problem.

It´s not the first time my users have experienced the problem so I really would apprecieate any working solutions.

Hidden Text and Bookmarks

Posted: 21 Jan 2015 06:40 PM PST

I'm working on a complex form that has many sections which are toggled between hidden and visible as the user completes questions. The questions are in Content Controls and the sections are defined as bookmarks.

The problem I'm having is with one of the sections. The bookmark for each section includes the Page Break before it, so when they are hidden, there are no blank pages. This works for all but one of the sections. The one that is not working happens to be the first one after the questions.

Whether I use VBA or simply hide the bookmarked text using the Font dialog, there is always a blank page when this section is hidden. As I can't find a way to display page breaks but not hidden text and the display of hidden text using the dotted underline doesn't display under the page breaks, I can't see whether there's one left or not.

Can anyone suggest where to look to resolve this. I've tried removing all the page breaks and bookmarks and recreating them with no success. I've tried changing the bookmarks to include the page break at the end of the section instead of the one at the start and it makes no difference.

Thanks

USB installation - MD5s for RHEL 5.3 Fail

Posted: 04 Jul 2009 08:06 PM PDT

On Wednesday 08 July 2009 03:55, someone identifying as *Sidney Lambe*
wrote in /comp.os.linux.setup:/
 

First of all I would like to say that I have not been following the
entire debate into detail because of health issues, and although the
word "troll" has come up a few times in this part of the thread, I have
now chosen to - even if only for a short while - put in my two cents
worth, with respect to both parties, as I see valid points in both of
them.

Sidney, I can feel your frustration over the "Windowsization" of
GNU/Linux, and to a large degree, I even share it. However, I think
you are being so frustrated about it that you are generalizing and
polarizing your views to extents beyond reality. Allow me to
explain...

There is indeed a tendency to make GNU/Linux more Windows-like, but I do
not believe that this tendency is as fierce as you yourself are
describing it, and what bothers me the most in this is that this
tendency has arisen from the demands of GNU/Linux newbies who of course
all come from the Windows world.

I myself have once been a newbie too, albeit that I was never that
Windows-conditioned as I already knew of other operating systems long
before I had a computer of my own. I only used MS-DOS 5.0 and Windows
3.x for about five or six months on my own first computer as it came
with those pre-installed and I was awaiting the commercial and stable
release of OS/2 2.x, which I have subsequently used for over five
years. On my next machine, I have used Windows NT 4.0 Workstation for
two years, but back then I was not all that seriously into computers
yet as I have become since I installed GNU/Linux for the first time,
late 1999. I have never used anything other than GNU/Linux since, and
wouldn't want to if my life depended on it. (In fact, I think I'd
rather have my life depend on GNU/Linux than on any other operating
system. ;-))

Now, I was a newbie too back then, albeit with some minor UNIX knowledge
and free from the Windows-isms like "folders" and /sea-drives./ I have
always found the UNIX methodology far more logical and transparent.
But as a newbie, KDE - back then still at version 1.1.1 - was a very
welcome environment as it facilitated getting acquainted with all
aspects of the operating system. I did however check out many of
the /man/ and /info/ pages from the start, read the /HowTos/ and of
course, prior to even installing the operating system, the printed
manual - it was a shrinkwrapped retail version of Linux Mandrake 6.0
Powerpack, which was back then basically a copy of RedHat with KDE
added, because RedHat refused to supply KDE due to the fact that KDE
1.x was built using non-freely licensed Qt libraries. Another
difference was that Mandrake 6.0 came with kernel 2.2.9, whereas RedHat
still carried 2.2.5.

I am a big fan of KDE, and more specifically KDE 3.x. I find KDE 4.x to
be promising, yet at the same time daunting because it's obviously
still very experimental and so far I haven't heard of any distro that
has managed to iron out the problems KDE 4.x poses. KDE 3.5.10 on the
other hand, although no longer maintained by the KDE developers
themselves, is stable and fully functional.

I also don't make it look like Windows - and I hate that distro vendors
do that - because I don't find the Windows GUI all that intuitive. On
my system, it looks a bit like the GUI of a MacIntosh, but not with the
intent of duplicating it. I have not set it up to look like anything
that exists, but rather like something that I can use and that feels
good for myself, not for everyone else. But even in its default look &
feel, I don't consider KDE 3.x to be a Windows clone, especially not if
you consider LXDE (which *does* look like Windows XP) or the Vista-look
of KDE 4.x - if I ever do switch to using KDE 4.x, then that will be
the first thing I change - or even the perversions of whatever UNIX
desktop environment is used by Linspire and the likes and have been
completely converted to the look & feel of Windows, desktop wallpaper
included.

So I do use KDE, and I like it. But don't let that statement fool you,
because I keep a terminal window open at all time and launch additional
terminal emulators when needed, and I do most of the stuff from the
commandline. It's just that when handling graphical objects a lot, it
is easier if you get to see a preview, and graphical manipulation of
photos et al does require running X11 anyway, and these days, diskspace
and RAM are cheap, so there's no reason for me to run a CLI-only system
- not for a workstation anyway. But I copy, move, delete, create and
otherwise manipulate files from the commandline. My filemanager only
serves so as to get a clear overview of the thumbnails. Being autistic
however, I really do like the aesthetics of (my customized version of)
KDE 3.x.

However, there is another angle to the Windows-ism story, in which you
are partly right, i.e. commercial distributions need an income, and
that income comes from selling a distribution of GNU/Linux in a
computer market segment that is for most part occupied by Windows. And
Microsoft has gone to great lengths at hiding what a computer really is
and what it does from its users, presenting them with their own
"Microsoft logic", in which thinking for yourself is strongly
discouraged. As such, the new batch of IT professionals gets trained
on using Microsoft stuff only, and as such, a new generation of idiots
is produced.

So now there are the computer illiterates who only know Windows - and
have never even heard of anything other than Windows because of
Microsoft's monopolizing tactics of pushing a license of Windows with
every new consumergrade computer from a big name brand - and you've got
the Windiots who call themselves IT specialists but only know how to
set up Microsoft software for use by the illiterates. Treat your
customers like idiots and idiots are the customers you'll attract - the
old adage still stands. And that is why distromakers tend to cater to
their Windiot clients.
 

On this I do not agree. I don't think that the technocrats would want
users to be dependent of them at all. In fact, it is my experience -
at least on Usenet, and I tend to follow this tendency myself when
giving advice - that the more technically experienced among us are
trying to teach the newbie how to think for themselves and "RTFM",
instead of thinking that GNU/Linux must behave like Windows.

By the same token, I always advice everyone to ditch the entire HAL
stuff with the automounting features and stick to a traditional and
static */etc/fstab* with manual mounting. Not that I'm conservative,
but I don't like things ing around with system data that should be
kept static and that is known to work, while the automounting stuff
often doesn't.
 

On *that* I agree.
 

The use of pseudonyms is not such a bad idea, provided that one stays
consistent and uses the same pseudonym continuously, or at the very
least, when adopting another one, make an announcement to that regard.

Shifting pseudonyms is rather a habit of trolls or spammers. I use a
pseudonym but I have used this one for many years already. I used to
have another one long before this one, but those who know me know that
this other "person" was me, and why I have chosen a different name -
among other things, I was being stalked by people who knew my pseudonym
and what newsgroup groups I was posting in.
 

I disagree on that. KDE was an effort to build a contemporary graphical
desktop environment for all kinds of UNIX systems - not just GNU/Linux
- and its name is a parody on CDE, the Common Desktop Environment that
shipped with most commercial UNIX implementations. KDE contains
elements of CDE, NeXtSTeP, pre-OS-X MacIntoshes, OS/2 and Windows. The
first iterations of KDE even looked far more like Motif and CDE than
like Windows.

Most (but not all) of the original KDE developers did work at Trolltech,
which produces the Qt widgetset, and hence they also used Qt to build
KDE upon. Originally Qt was not released under a free license, and
this is why the FSF and certain "politically correct wannabe"
distributions like RedHat refused to support KDE, despite KDE itself
being released under a free license. Meanwhile Trolltech has - with
the advice from RMS himself - licensed Qt under a GPL-compatible
license, and so that problem has been eliminated.

I will however agree with you that KDE 4.x does look a lot like Vista in
its default trim with the black panel, and that this is probably done
so as to make life easier for the Windows-to-GNU/Linux crossover
newbie. And I will also agree with you that this was absolutely
unnecessary. Yet that does not mean that I will agree that UNIX must
be a CLI-only operating system. But then again, it should also not be
seen as a CLI-only operating system of course, as the operating system
itself is CLI-only and everything else runs on top of that.

For the record, my system is normally up 24/7, but it boots to runlevel
3 anyway, not to a GUI login screen. I consider X11/KDE an extension
to the system, not an essential component to it. By the same token, I
maintain our not-for-profit organization's servers via /ssh/ - my
colleague is a Windows user and prefers /webmin/ - so I do not need any
GUI tools. It's just that having those tools available (for local
administration) might come in handy sometimes. ;-)
 

That is unfortunately a trend we get to see with lots of commercial
distributions. But there still are non-commercial distributions,
albeit only a small amount. Gentoo for instance, or Debian.
 

I don't understand why you are dissing on KDE so much. As far as my own
experience goes, I find KDE to be far more customizable than Gnome, and
far better integrated with its applications than any of the smaller,
standalone desktop environments or window managers.
 

This is mainly the influence of the distromakers themselves, because
they needlessly complicate things for the sake of branding them with
their own logos. For instance, Mandriva - formerly known as
MandrakeSoft - really goes out of its way in providing customized
versions of - among many others - all kinds of KDE-related things
(including /kdm/) and the fact that their customizations are left
largely undoented seems more like a deliberate decision than a
manifestation of Occam's Razor.
 

There really is a distinct difference between realizing that the
Windows-insanity is trying to take over the GNU/Linux world out of
their inability to understand anything other than the pre-chewed
Microsoft junk, and radically opposing and hating anything GUI-related.
I can make that distinction, but I'm afraid you yourself cannot.

The tens of thousands of CLI-only users you are referring to are mainly
server admins, and for server administration you do indeed not need a
GUI, nor is it desirable to even install anything GUI-related on a
server. However, persisting at running a CLI-only system also causes
you to bypass *almost* everything multimedia-related, such as the
manipulation of graphics via The Gimp - which is one of my favorite
applications and which, despite the condescending remarks from
Photoshop addicts, is quite professional software.

I repeat...: I do our server maintenance via /ssh./ I do most of the
stuff on my own workstation computer using terminal emulators. But I
do use KDE and I do use KDE-specific applications. And I also do use a
browser - whichever works - to surf to websites that contain graphical
content.

There's nothing wrong with using a GUI, and one should not have to hate
GUIs or refuse to use them just because there is such a thing as
Microsoft Windows. I hate Windows too. Not because I've had any
problems with it - because I haven't used it for long enough nor
intensely enough to actually have had any significant problems with it
- but because of what it is, i.e. a perversion of what a computer is
and what it's supposed to do, and what it's supposed to allow the user
to do with it (as opposed to what Microsoft allows the user to do with
it). And I hate Microsoft as a company because of all their dirty
tactics and their attempts at disrupting the GNU/Linux community
through publicized FUD and Usenet shills/trolls, and because they are
clearly attempting to further dumb down the enduser so as to beat more
money out of their pockets or simply lead them into dependency.
 

And on today's hard disks with hundreds of GB of diskspace, in today's
computers with several GB of RAM, this matters how exactly?
 

I enjoy learning new stuff about GNU/Linux (or UNIX in general) as well,
but I am not spending my entire days trying to learn something new
about it unless it is something of particular interest to me - e.g.
virtualization with Xen (and no, not with Windows as guests). I have
many fields of interest that I do research about, but I am not going to
go out of my way to become a real guru and/or run a system without a
GUI.

I will however agree that it is better to teach the newbie that
GNU/Linux (or any UNIX for that matter) is an entirely different
operating system from Windows and that they should abandon all they
know about Windows or all they were used to on Windows before
endeavoring into GNU/Linux.

It *is* a different operating system, but I do not buy into the "steep
learning curve" excuse. Someone who's never seen a computer in his
life and who gets to be confronted with Windows for the first time will
have an equally steep learning curve to overcome. The steepness of the
GNU/Linux learning curve is only an imaginary construct used as an
excuse by Windows addicts to adhere to their dumbed-down Windows-isms
and insist that GNU/Linux become "more userfriendly".

GNU/Linux is not user-unfriendly at all; it simply expects the user to
be a little more computerfriendly instead. It is far more logical and
transparent than any other non-UNIX operating system I've seen so far.
Hell, it even makes far more sense than DOS, and that was a
commandline-only system as well.
 

You only get to get technical support if you're using a commercial
distribution, even if the operating system is provided free of charge
by its vendors - e.g. the various Ubuntu-spinoffs. I used to buy
commercial distributions because I wanted to do something back to the
community, but I think I've already helped far more users here on
Usenet than that my money to the distromakers has helped the community.

At present I am still running an old Mandrake 10.0 on this machine -
purchased directly from MandrakeSoft (now Mandriva) itself through
their online store, albeit that this did not quite go as smoothly as
they were pretending - but for my other machine I am looking at Gentoo,
and since this machine here is becoming unstable hardwarewise and will
require a replacement, I will probably be installing Slackware on that
one. I don't know yet. I'll see.

One of the reasons why I won't get involved with RedHat/CentOS/Fedora is
that they refuse to let you install the system on anything other
than /ext3/ filesystems - and by now, probably /ext4/ as well - while I
have always preferred /XFS/ for large systems and /reiserfs/ on smaller
ones. Reiser's conviction for the murder of his estranged wife a while
ago has of course lessened my sympathy for his filesystem, but
technically /reiserfs/ has not given me any problems yet. /XFS/ does
have a far more elaborate toolset, however.
 

This is definitely recommended reading, and so are many of the other
links you've provided, but I don't see the logic in listing all of
those links in every post you make.

However, if I may make a suggestion, take that list of links and post it
on a website somewhere, and then include a link to that website in your
Usenet signature. Saves on bandwidth and diminishes the spam content
score of your posts. ;-)

plan in Excel? There is often good reason to export some of Project's
data to Excel (e.g. for more flexibility with data manipulation or for
customized reports) but it is very rare to truly have a need for the
whole Project plan in another application. Perhaps if you enlighten us
more, we can suggest a more appropriate solution.

Thanks for this - just what I was looking for. I hadn't noticed those
options before.

Hi Francis,

Who mentions task id?
activeselection.tasks(1) refers to the first (or the only) task in the
selection.

Which version of Project is correct for us?

Posted: 31 Jan 2006 12:36 PM PST

Hi,

AFAIK no version of Project allows simultaneous updates by more than one
user.
In that area Server has no added value.

Hi Oscar,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :)

1 million tasks per project - I wouldn't worry about that as you'll most
likely run out of memory before then :)

How to display employees hours sumed to a Manager

Posted: 31 Jan 2006 06:58 AM PST

Jzis-

It should be possible to use the resource grouping field in the resource
dictionary to simulate a one-level resource hierarchy.

In your example, you would have three resources (Tom, Mary, and Lou) and all
of them would be in the group "Joe".
You would then create a report that groups hours by this resource group.

I'm not sure HOW you would create that report in Microsoft Project, but I
know it can be done in my company's add-on reporting software for Microsoft
Project ("DecisionReports for Microsoft Project").
(I would be happy to work with you directly to get the report you need -
just send an email.)

Regards,
John Garay

????? If there is a grouping within the task for Cost rate table A, that
subgroup has a "group summary line" hasn't it? And the values in that line
are only fo A???
