How to CONFIRM I want a Word doc deleted Posted: 19 Feb 2015 02:57 PM PST When I rename a Word doc I sometimes accidentally hit "delete" instead of "rename." In my old Word program it would ask me if I was sure I wanted to delete the document...but not this one, it just DELETES IT! So I have to go into the recycle bin to restore. Is there any way to set it up so it lets me confirm I really want it deleted before automatically trashing it? Thanks! |
2013 Word will NOT print envelopes correctly! Posted: 19 Feb 2015 02:29 PM PST Hi, I am just at my wits end! Word 2013 will not print my envelopes as they show in Word 2013. I set up the envelope to print the delivery address. No need for a return address. The envelope looks great on the screen, when you print preview - it looks great as well. Sometimes, you will hit print button and nothing happens. If you hit the quick print button, the envelope will print, but prints the delivery address at the top of the envelope. NOT where the return address goes, but randomly about 2 inches in from the left and literally right at the top of the envelope. PLEASE HELP! I have a Lexmark 543dn printer. The printer works in every other way and used to work FINE when I had windows explorer, but since WORD 2013 has been installed, it WILL NOT PRINT! HELP!!!! THANKS - MARY F. ADAMS |

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 12:51 PM PST Hi all. There are many instructions on how to start new pages using sections, however, I am unable to find any info regarding modifying the "Pages" part or the {NumPages}. For example, lets say we have a document with 90 pages (including title and TOC). Now, there's 1 page for title and 7 pages for TOC making 8 non-body pages. Ok so it's easy enough to have the TOC page numbers in roman numerals and the first page of the rest of the body of text starting at 1. One Section BTW. However, when one gets to the end of the document, it reads Page 82 of 90, which really doesnt make any sense and throws off anyone reading it when you get to the end of the document, you think you've lost eight pages!! Other than adding it manually, what I want is {NumPages}/Pages, or whatever it takes, to display the number of pages for that last page as Page 82 of 82 NOT Page 82 of 90. Just a bit more intuitive I'd think. Anyone know if this is possible or is it another one of those Microsoft GOTCHAs? Thanks. |
Posted: 19 Feb 2015 12:50 PM PST I am trying to update an old technical manual in Word 2013. Each page contains a table with three boxes (2 columns, 2 rows, 2nd row merged). I am trying to utilize a macro to automatically set new column and row sizes. I have been messing around with Macros and have attempted simply deleting the bottom row (merged) and then running a specified column width macro but there must be a way to combine them and only cycle through once. Or even better, to NOT have to delete the 2nd row (and lose the data that is in the merged cell). the macro is; Sub SetColumnWidths2() Dim t As Table For Each t In ActiveDocument.Tables t.Columns(1).Width = InchesToPoints(5.31) t.Columns(2).Width = InchesToPoints(1.5) Next t End Sub there is a .ppt image in each of the tables that I would like to resize as well but that may be too much to ask for... Thank you in advance programmer gurus, and please let me know if my request does not make any sense! Mark |
Possible to change the Default value for "Add Space After Paragraph" Option? Posted: 19 Feb 2015 11:36 AM PST Hello All, Microsoft Office Version: Office Professional 2010 --> Word OS: Windows 7 Professional I was wondering if there was a way to change the Default "12pt" spacing that gets used for the Add Space After Paragraph option, to a different value other then the default? I don't want X pt spacing after EVERY paragraph, which is why I'm trying to change the default 12 pt to another value. Otherwise, I could just click the Set as Default button in the Line Spacing Options, but that would cause there to be that number of spacing after EVERY paragraph. So basically I want to change the default 12pt Add spacing after paragraph value to let's say 6pt. So whenever I would click the Add Space After Paragraph option it would insert 6pt instead of the default 12pt... Does that make sense? Any thoughts or suggestions would be grealty appreciated! Thanks in Advance, Matt |
Posted: 19 Feb 2015 11:16 AM PST This morning I tried to opened one of my word files, and it cannot be opened. I got this message: "The file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents." When I clicked the detail this is what I found: "the file is corrupt and cannot be opened." Can somebody help me? Thanks |
Exclamation point will not print Posted: 19 Feb 2015 09:24 AM PST When I use an exclamation point in Word, it does not print on any printer. I have tried printing from other programs and it will print, but not from Microsoft word. The exclamation point shows up in the print preview. It also shows up in Acrobat when I save it as a PDF. This is quite frustrating. |
No longer have option to paste Posted: 19 Feb 2015 09:07 AM PST When I go to Office Word, 2013, Windows 8.1, the option to paste is shaded and cannot paste. In the past I was given different paste options to choose and they are no longer available. When I have searched in "word help", nothing can be found. |

Word 2010 changes default printer to PDF after saving a docx as a PDF Posted: 19 Feb 2015 07:02 AM PST After preparing a Word 2010 document and saving it as a .docx file, I then save it again as a PDF, using the drop down "Save As File" menu in Word. Thereafter, every time I try to print a document from the Web, up comes PDF instead of my default HP printer, and I have to manually change back to my printer. I have checked to be sure it was still set at the default printer, and it is. How can I correct this? Thanks for your help. |
Word 2013 keeps embedding fonts not used in the document Posted: 19 Feb 2015 05:35 AM PST Hi all, I am fighting with big file size. I have MS Word 2013 document saved in docx format. I use three custom fonts, so I want to save them in the docx file as well. The file size with embedded fonts is about 5MB. Filesize without embedded fonts is about 300kB. I looked into the docx file and realised, that there are fonts that I do not use in my document, or in any of the document styles, like: - Times New Roman - Symbol - Wingdngs - Cambria (2MB!!) Does anyone have idea how to get rid of them? Thank you Stepan |
Sporadic Issue when saving as pdf in Word 2010 Posted: 19 Feb 2015 03:37 AM PST I'm currently absolutely baffled by an issue I have when trying to Save As PDF in Word 2010. When I go through the Save As dialog, and change my filetype to pdf and click save, sometimes I get the message 'The file is in use by another application or user'. I say sometimes, because sometimes I don't get this message and the file saves as expected. This can be hit and miss on the same file from the same location if tried multiple times through that save dialog. I'm thinking it's probably a timing issue with a temporary file, but I really don't know why it's happening or how to prevent it from happening, and it is not happening on multiple instances of Word 2010 installed around our company. Has anyone experienced this issue before, and if so, do you know of a fix as I'm completely stumped. Kind regards, Jason |
Posted: 18 Feb 2015 09:43 PM PST I can't seem to find the tools for making several drawing objects the same width/height. I've used it for years in Access and assume it is the same in Word, but I can't find it. Does it exist? Thanks Gordon |
Picture Truncated in Word Table Posted: 18 Feb 2015 07:49 PM PST I have below Word 2013 table that has shapes inserted and aligned as "in line with text." Alignment is set to center (horizontal and vertical). Everything looks perfect on my machine (WIN 8.1 / Office 2013). Here is what my version looks like. When I paste the table into the body of an Outlook email, the recipients see below truncation of the top of the object:s. But, my version continues to render correctly, even after being pasted into the email body. Does anyone know how to fix this? |
Multiple Legacy Text Boxes on same line - stop movement Posted: 18 Feb 2015 05:54 PM PST I have a form with 3 boxes in Word and I used legacy text boxes for peers to enter in data. When someone starts typing a name (for example) in text box 1, text box 2 and 3 (on the same line as text box 1) all shift to the right and mess up the formatting. How do I stop this? Do I need to create columns? Oh boy... Thanks, Joel |
Add bookmark switches to Table of Contents for a document with several sections Posted: 18 Feb 2015 04:17 PM PST I would like to add bookmark switches to Table of Contents for a document with several sections. That is, each the document has bookmarks named S1, S2 and S3. In the footer of each section the page numbering follows the total pages for all sections. That is, The footer of section 1 has the code: Page { Page } of { = { PAGEREF S1 } + { PAGEREF S2 } + { PAGEREF S3 } } The footer of section 2 has the code: Page { = {Page} + { PAGEREF S1 } } of { = { PAGEREF S1 } + { PAGEREF S2 } + { PAGEREF S3 } } The footer of section 3 has the code: Page { = {Page} + { PAGEREF S1 } + { PAGEREF S2 } } of { = { PAGEREF S1 } + { PAGEREF S2 } + { PAGEREF S3 } } Each section shows the total number of pages in the document (the sum of the three sections) and the individual page number of that page within the sections. That is, each section has 2 pages so the footers show: 1 of 6 2 of 6 3 of 6 4 of 6 5 of 6 6 of 6. The Table of contents, however, does not obey this method. That is, the items on the first page of section 3 are listed as page 1 in the TOC and not page 5. I have tried { TOC \b S3 \o "1-3" } but that did not work. Please tell me how to set the field codes so that this would work. |
