Posted: 13 Feb 2015 03:02 PM PST I had just finished typing my report when I clicked "save as" and it disappeared. There was never the box that usually pops up to have me name it. Does anyone know if I can retrieve it from somewhere or what happened? |
Office Home and Student for Windows 7 Posted: 13 Feb 2015 02:08 PM PST Hi, have bought and downloaded Office Home and Student 2013 which is meant for Windows 7 amongst others. Office won't open and my computer is telling me that it is not compatible. Altho my computer (laptop) runs on Windows 7, it is telling me that it's actually Windows XP (Service Pack 2) and Windows Version 6.1 I am now at a complete loss. Help, thank you, Eileen |
attaching word template by reference Posted: 13 Feb 2015 12:19 PM PST I have a custom template that I've attached to a collection of documents. I have these files, including the template, checked into source control. I'm finding that the reference to the attached template does not follow the files when a second user checks out the documents and template from source control. I.e. my coworker checks out the template and one of the documents. He edits the template to change Header 1 to color red. He opens the document and the Header 1 text is not red. The auto-update based on template is turned on. It is in fact referencing the original template that is stored in my folder on the network. Can I create the documents so that they look in their own path for the template? |
Word 2010 docx opens in non-edit mode and loses Baloons Always setting Posted: 13 Feb 2015 11:46 AM PST win 7 Pro SP1 64-bit Word 2010 on both machines I am working with an author editing his book. When we send a file either way it opens requiring us to click on enable editing and then go change the tracking options setting to Balloons: Always. This happens even though we have identical settings in Word Options. There are no macros in the docx files, but there are in Normal.dotm on each machine, and Macros are enabled in Trust Center on both machines. It is not hard to work around, but it shouldn't be doing this, and it wasn't doing this sometime back. I assume some update changed things. Where do I look? |
Posted: 13 Feb 2015 11:22 AM PST I have two Word documents. I'm using Word for Mac 2011. Each document is a a test of 1200 multiple-choice questions. The second version is supposed to be a rearrangement of the questions, but they're written in a specific order, so they can't have a random arrangement. The organization that sent this wants a committee to compare one version against the second to ensure no typos have been made. Is there a way to do this other than checking them one-at-a-time? I don't think Track Changes is meant to work in this way. Thank you very much, RW |

Word 2010: Why don't documents scroll vertically in Print Layout view? Posted: 13 Feb 2015 10:55 AM PST I have vertical scroll bars enabled in Word 2010. Note that I am NOT asking about how to enable vertical scroll bars. In Print Layout view with more than one page viewed at a time, dragging the vertical scroll bar does nothing except show a small page indicator as shown in the screenshot below. In other words, when scrolling vertically with the scroll bar, the pages actually displayed in the document window do not change and I cannot quickly scan through the document nor see where I am scrolling to. This is very annoying. This does not happen in Draft view nor in Print Layout view when only one page is viewed at a time. I've noticed that this Print Layout view problem occurs in previous versions of Word as well. Can anyone confirm that this is a permanent "feature" in Word? Is there any way to change this? It seems completely pointless and similar document views in for example, Adobe Acrobat do not have this problem. What is the rationale? Thanks for any help. |
Section numbers and hyperlinks in table of authorities Posted: 13 Feb 2015 08:41 AM PST Is it possible to create a table of authorities in a Word document which doesn't refer to page number, but instead refers to the hyperlinked section in which the authority is found, so that clicking on the section number takes the reader to the citation, or at least to the section in which the citation is found? I've found this entry: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2003-word/reference-paragraph-numbers-in-a-table-of/bd301d9d-f453-e011-8dfc-68b599b31bf5 but the links discussed there are no longer valid. Thanks! |
Office 2013 for Windows 7 appears extremely blurry Posted: 13 Feb 2015 08:07 AM PST I recently downloaded and installed Microsoft Office 2013 as part of a student bundle at my university. To do this, I had to uninstall my previous Microsoft Office 2010. However, all of the new Office programs are extremely blurry. If I run my mouse over certain buttons, they may unblur for a second or two, but then distort again. All of the programs seem to function fine, but are very unusable in the sense that I can't see what I'm typing or clicking at all. This didn't effect my previous Office suite, nor the Wordpad that came with my laptop. Below is a screenshot of Word. I had copied some filler bio text from a wiki-how site. I put this topic as Microsoft Office Word, but the same effect is happening in all the office programs. |
Text boxes automatically hyperlinked Posted: 13 Feb 2015 07:40 AM PST Hi guys, I tried my best to find an answer to this question somewhere so sorry if I missed it. Basically, in Word 2010, when I make a new text box, the text is automatically formatted like a hyperlink (underlined and blue). But I can't turn it off, because Word "knows" there's no real hyperlink there. I tried just changing the color and format of the text, but no matter what I tell it, the text stays blue and underlined. I tried adding a fake hyperlink and then removing it to see if that would help, but it didn't. All I want out of life is to make a box of text that isn't blue or underlined. What's going on?! Thank you. |
Posted: 13 Feb 2015 04:34 AM PST While trying to edit a page in Word 2010 I came accrss a special character that begins a new page which cannot be deleted. The symbol is a small solid square. How can I delete the symbol? |
Changing the name that displays for tracked changes? Posted: 13 Feb 2015 03:42 AM PST I turned on tracking and made changes to a document on one computer and now need to finish making changes with tracking turned on while using another computer. The problem is that the other computer is not mine and I want the tracked changes to display the same name, mine throughout the document. How can I change the name that displays for the tracked changes on the second computer so both the changes and colors for the changes are the same? thanks. |
Save As Error Message 'There are no more files' Posted: 13 Feb 2015 03:33 AM PST I am trying to save a Word 2010 document but keep getting a Save As Error Message 'There are no more files'. I have troubleshooted online and the only thing I came accross to do was to go into Word save options and make sure and set 'Save files in this format: Word Document (*,docx). However, I am still getting the same Save As error message. Thank you for any help |
word 2010 insufficient memory or disk space - tried all the fixes I can find Posted: 13 Feb 2015 02:05 AM PST I have a laptop running windows 8 and MS Office Professional 2010. From the very start when it is brand new is occasionally got the message "insufficient memory or disk space" when trying to print from word. This is getting worse. Deleting normal.dotm fixes it for a very short while then it occurs again. I have removed add-ins but the problem still occurred. I tried doing a repair on Office 2010 but the problem still occurred. Yesterday I uninstalled Office and reinstalled it and the problem is even worse. At the moment I either need to delete normal every time I have done a print - or I have to save everything as a PDF fine if I want to print it. I have also done a full system scan with Norton 360 Can anything suggest what the problem might be Thanks |
Posted: 12 Feb 2015 10:09 PM PST I had the default paragraph type for my document set as double line spacing, with the first line indented by 0.5". All of the sudden, it reverted to no indentation. I cannot get it to go back for the entire document. I actually clicked on "set as default" and chose "for all documents based on Normal template." What happened, and how do I make it go back? |

Monospace fonts are not monospaced in Word 2010 Posted: 12 Feb 2015 05:25 PM PST I am writing up some software documentation and am trying to use Courier New for the code parts to make them clear to read. I chose Courier New because it is a monospace font. However the results I am seeing are defiantly not monospace, and as a result it makes the code more difficult to read. Why is Word doing this and how do I get it to stop? Running Word 2010 on Windows 7. |
Posted: 12 Feb 2015 05:24 PM PST I have a document that when I attempt to save it the save command switches to save as? Why? This is 32 bit MS Word 2013 on 64 bit Windows 7. The document does contain embedded versions of MS WOrd and MS Excel files. |
Microsoft Word crashes when try to open it Posted: 12 Feb 2015 04:32 PM PST Whenever I try to open microsoft word 2010 it will open fine but then a pop screen shows up and says "please wait while setup prepares necessary files" and then word crashes. None of the other office programs will open either. Although they don't open at all. They aren't like word. I have tried uninstalling office but it always says that the uninstall in incomplete so I can't just reinstall the software. I don't know why it won't uninstall. Is there any way to fix this issue so that I can at least open word without it crashing? Or is there some way to make my computer uninstall office? |
Posted: 12 Feb 2015 04:26 PM PST Hey, I'm changing laptops soon. The last time I changed laptops, I lost my customized dictionary and customized autocorrect words. Even though I re-logged into my account on the other laptop, the autocorrect options that I applied on the last laptop did not sync. So what happens now, since I'm getting a new laptop? Do I have to go back and save EACH autocorrect word? Or is there a way to just sync those into my new laptop? Also, can you please bring back the autocorrect option in the menu box (right click). It's really frustrating that each time I want to add a word in autocorrect I have to go to settings menu. Thank you, Alan |
I want to link a multi page spreadsheet into Word, PLUS maintain formatting & sanity Posted: 12 Feb 2015 03:56 PM PST I have to create & print a new membership directory for my club. All the info is in an Excel 2007 file. My 1st choice would be to link the data in Excel to word. Alternatively, embed or copy the data. I have to get it into Word to use its more extensive formatting & more importantly, use the Page Setup features for booklet printing. Here's what I have tried that didn't work: Insert / Object / Text from File. After entering the Excel file I want copied into Word, I get an error dialog box message that reads "...cannot be opened because there are problems with the content. Details - the file is corrupt and cannot be opened." Clicking OK, the next box says "Word found unreadable content in file. Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you trust the source of this document, click Yes." When I click Yes, it circles back to the 1st message above. So I cancel out of that. Next I try Insert / Object / Object / Create New / Object type & select Microsoft Office Excel Worksheet. This brings up a 10 line Blank Excel spreadsheet into Word. I can extend the sheet down to the bottom of page 1 but no further. How do I get the rest of the sheet on to pages 2, 3, 4, etc? It has also taken data from Excel that is 5" wide & squashed it down to 4.4" wide. Gerr! Cut & Paste from the Excel sheet got it all into Word on multiple pages BUT screwed up the formatting. Any ideas on how to make this work. I'm even willing to give up on the linking feature & just copy a mirror image into Word! A very, very inelegant solution is to insert a new object page by page. ie rows 1-40 on page 1, 41-80 on page 2, etc, etc. Doing it this way makes moving around in the document extremely cumbersome while in Excel mode. |
OneDrive and exporting an excel file or word file to create pdf Posted: 12 Feb 2015 11:29 AM PST I have a user who opens her OneDrive on C:\Users.......and opens one of her folders then either an excel file or word file and then if she tries to chose export to create pdf it will hang for a few minutes (you can see it creating a temp file in that folder) then it will pop up Internet Explorer to the Office 365 Login page. If you then just click to save it ignoring the IE popup it some times will save the file as a pdf and other times will just hang. I have tried to reproduce this on other machines and they all work fine IE never opens up. |
