| Word 2013 blank boxes appear and disappear when closing Posted: 24 Mar 2015 02:02 PM PDT Hello, Oddly enough, today a colleague was working on a previously saved Word 2013 document and after making changes they went and pressed the X to close at the top right. Normally a window pops up asking if you would like to save or close the document as changes have been made. With this document, which appears not to be corrupted or anything of the sort, a blank box pops up and disappears several times before finally being replaced by the typical dialogue box, once selecting to save or discard the mystery box does the same thing several times until it asks the same thing. The only way seemingly out of the loop is to cancel the operation; closing the program. I can go to File and press Save and it works properly and allows me to then close the program. However I am wondering if anyone has any clue about this mystery disappearing box trick as I would love to be able to fix the problem so that it does not happen again on a document that cannot be lost. |
| Posted: 24 Mar 2015 12:52 PM PDT If I delete a word document file from my PC, does it leaves any traces on the hard disk. If yes where can I find them? |
| Posted: 24 Mar 2015 12:30 PM PDT Split from this thread. I don't know whether I can get any help on this issue but I am having the same problem. A person send me a document with their edits (identified as "author" no matter what). Then I proceed to insert my edits and I have to physically go in at the beginning of each edit session under Review options and put my user name (otherwise it assumes I'm the "author" too.) The edits I put in are in a different color. But as soon as I save, my edits are the same color and the edits are now identified as "author") I've lost all productivity because I haven't found a good work around. |
| How can I insert tab after right indentation. Posted: 24 Mar 2015 12:14 PM PDT Recently, i shifted to Word 2013 from 2007's counterpart. However, in earlier version of word, i can insert a tab for right alignment tab beyond the right indentation. I found that this facility in not available in word 2013. Is there any way to do that? For more illustration, I have also added a snapshot from word 2007. |
| Word and Excel will not open, mising msvcr90.dll Posted: 24 Mar 2015 12:13 PM PDT Product: Microsoft Office 2010 Home & Student OS: Windows 7 64-bit Problem: When I open Word or Excel I receive a message that it cannot find msvcr90.dll Troubleshooting Steps Attempted:
Thank you for any additional suggestions. The only option I can think of next is a backup, clean install which I would prefer to avoid. |
| Posted: 24 Mar 2015 12:12 PM PDT We have suddenly started having the problem that when inserting either a section (§) or paragraph (¶) symbol into a word document (64-bit Word 2010 on Windows 7 Pro), even though the default font has been set in Word to Times New Roman and the font in use in the document is the default, it switches arbitrarily back to Calibri. Why is this happening and how do I fix it? Thanks! Ariel |
| Posted: 24 Mar 2015 12:11 PM PDT I have a document in which I wish to replace the first character on all lines at once with a new character. Does someone know how I can accomplish that? Do note that Excel is not the answer, as the document contains 11,881,376 lines on which the first character must be replaced. |
| Word 2013 Templates - Drop Down Box Posted: 24 Mar 2015 11:08 AM PDT Hello! I'm creating a template, and was wondering if there is anyway to increase the number of characters for the drop down box choices. For the template I'm creating, I need the user to be able to select from two paragraphs. However, the drop down choices only hold so many characters. Is there a work around for this? Thanks! |
| Sign in to Office (an issue with disabling said feature) Posted: 24 Mar 2015 11:03 AM PDT Okay a bit of a back story. The company I work for has asked that I essentially neuter Office to the best of my abilities from communicating with the outside world for privacy reasons. One of the issues is with it signing in to Microsoft. I followed the steps to either edit the registry or to use the Group Policy editor to change 'block signing into office' to enabled with the maximum setting. The issue is that when Word or Excel for example are loaded, it still prompts in the top right corner to "Sign in to get the most out of Office". Fine, I get that. If I click on it, sometimes (not always), it will display a box that says this feature has been disabled by your administrator. GOOD! However, I click the X to close it, and immediately click to sign in again, and it pops up the same box, this time with it asking for an email address. Close Word, and repeat the process and it's hit or miss if it will say it's disabled or ask for an email address. Using the latest version of Office (all up to date as far as I can tell). Frustrating! |
| Mail Merge Rules and Next Record Posted: 24 Mar 2015 10:40 AM PDT Hi, I am creating a personalized agenda that I am trying to populate from an excel file. A couple problems: 1- the document is a custom template to print on a perforated page, so i dare not mess with it too much. I created the agenda template from a table. I am using the If, then rules to populate the table and I think it's working ok, on the template on the left side of the sheet anyways. How do I get the template on the right side of the page to populate? I though the Next record function might work but I was getting an error message about not being able to post in headers or margins or something. How do I get the next person's agenda to populate on the right, and the person after that to populate on a subsequent page? Would be happy to share my docs to anyone who can help. Thanks! Larkin |

| Posted: 24 Mar 2015 10:14 AM PDT I just got a new computer and I can not get the documents in Word to stay one page at a time on the screen. It keeps going back to two on a page (like a book). I never had this issue before, maybe it's the new monitors? They're about 18" across now. How do I get Word to stay set to show one page at a time and scroll down to read rest of document? |
| Mail Merge Data is Not Showing What is in the Database Field Posted: 24 Mar 2015 08:51 AM PDT I am trying to merge fields from an Excel database over to a Word document. One field has the customers work phone in it. The merged data always shows up as "0" instead of the phone number in the Excel cell. The column before and after the Work Phone field has the customers Home Phone and Cell Phone and this data merges correctly. Any ideas on why the Work Phone column merges as "0" for every customer in the list? |
| Posted: 24 Mar 2015 08:27 AM PDT I have Word for Office 365. I have a document with a numbered list. I want to copy the text from one of the list items and paste it into another program. I select JUST THE TEXT (taking great pains to NOT include the empty space at the end of the line) and copy it by either pressing CTRL+C or using the COPY button in the ribbon. I open up a third-party program and press CTRL+V to paste the copied text into the third-party program. When I do this the line of text is pasted, but prepended to this line of text is the list time. So instead of seeing: This is some text I see: a. This is some text. How can I stop this from happening? Under FILE -> OPTIONS -> ADVANCED -> CUT, COPY, AND PASTE I have "Keep bullets and numbers when pasting text with Keep Text Only option" unchecked. I have all "Pasting..." options above this set to "Keep Text Only". I do not think these settings apply to my issue because they are for pasting into Word not copying. I have no options for controlling how things are copied under this "CUT, COPY, and paste" section. Thank you for your help. |
| Microsoft office 2013 problems Posted: 24 Mar 2015 08:14 AM PDT I downloaded office 2013 and it has not worked well since the day I got it. I had 2010 on my computer and upgraded to be able to use more office products. 2013 programs will start to open and freeze. Then I will have to ctrl-alt-del to effectively 'push' the programs to open. That still only sometimes works. Also, randomly, I will be working (writing a paper or something) and I will click on the internet to maybe look up information, and when I click back into the MS program it will be completely frozen again. I will have to ctrl-alt-del many, many times to push it through again. PLEASE HELP ME. This is awful. PS I know I selected MS Office Word, but it happens an all of them. |
| Double & Single Side printing in 1 PDF Posted: 24 Mar 2015 06:24 AM PDT I am not sure if this is possible but I have a PDF document that has 7 documents but only 4 of them I want to print double sided.

| Is there a way to change (as a default) where delivery address goes on an envelope Posted: 24 Mar 2015 06:12 AM PDT Hi All - Each time I do an envelope - I have to by hand move the left margin in the delivery address area. (Either company name or street address line does not fit on one line as it is). Is there a way to set a default - so the left indent of that section is further left? Thank you in advance |
| just installed word wont print out in word but will print in emails Posted: 24 Mar 2015 04:54 AM PDT I just purchased word 2013 last week and because of viruses within my computer it was installed remotely by Microsoft. Since then I cannot print out in word, it will print out emails etc but not in word. I have checked my printer it is on as default full ink and working correctly. Why will it not print out a word document. |
| Insane behavior of Word document! Posted: 24 Mar 2015 04:07 AM PDT I'm tearing my hair out! I have a document that when I paste text from another document, whether just one line or a whole paragraph, there is a non-deletable space of half a page suddenly inserted in the document THREE PARAGRAPHS ABOVE where I am pasting the text. I've even pasted the text into Notepad so there's no formatting at all - just plain text - it STILL inserts this gap when I copy and paste from Notepad. How on earth can I get rid of this gap? It's driving me insane! |

| Radio buttons appear as pictures and no longer work in Word 2010 Posted: 24 Mar 2015 03:15 AM PDT I received a file from a customer containing radio buttons with a Yes/No choice. Everything worked fine until a couple of days ago. I must have accidentally hit a combination of keys on the keyboard that changed my settings in some way. Now I can no longer select any of the radio buttons in the document. When I click on them, it's as if I selected a picture. When I double-click them, a properties window appears showing the properties for "This document" (and not the radio button's properties). The weird thing is that on my colleagues' computer everything works fine. I have searched the internet and tried all kinds of solutions (removing the *.exd files, reinstalling Office, etc. etc.) but nothing works. I am really getting desperate now, since I have a deadline to fill out the document and I cannot do it. Can anyone help please? Thanks! |
| Converting Word file to PDF with embeded PDF documents Posted: 24 Mar 2015 03:10 AM PDT I have a report which includes a number of PDF files which have been embedded within it, however to add security during distribution I need to PDF the master document. Unfortunately, as I convert the file to PDF using the 'Save As' function in Word 2010, all the embedded files are lost. Is there any way to convert the word document to PDF and retain these embedded files, or am I going to have to re-insert them again in Acrobat? Any help would be appreciated. Apologies if this is an old topic, however I have uncovered a lot of questions and discussions on embedding files, but not in their retention in the subsequent conversion of the master file to pdf also. Thanks in advance. Alex. |
| Microsoft Word 2013 - Macro to copy existing header and footer to many other documents. Posted: 24 Mar 2015 02:16 AM PDT I've attempted to create a macro that would copy the header and footer of 1 existing document and paste them onto every other document in the folder and sub folders, but I haven't gotten anywhere. Could I get some help with this? Could this also do this for all the pages in the document? Thanks Rod |
| Word 2013 Table of contents - page numbers all change to 2 when print (or print preview) Posted: 24 Mar 2015 12:04 AM PDT I have a single section document in Word 2013. The first page is a TOC. The document is 4 pages long and has three Level 1 Heading styles through out the document. The TOC initially appears correct. When I go to Print Preview the TOC will revert all page numbers to 2. Changing the Options "Update fields before printing" and "Allow fields containing tracked changes to update before printing" has no effect (before anyone suggests this). The only solution is to manually update the TOC, save to PDF, and print the PDF. Anyone can reproduce this problem. Try it....
I have seen many descriptions of this behavior on different forums and not one solution. But I am like the proverbial dog with a bone - I will not let this issue go until MS gives me a solution ! |
| where do i find technical support? Posted: 23 Mar 2015 09:50 PM PDT I am trying to reach technical support, but all the pages I go through that keep redirecting me to the same page that is expired. There is no phone number or email where I can contact someone regarding my account. I just need to contact technical support. |
| Posted: 23 Mar 2015 08:12 PM PDT I have a bunch of Word macros which allow me to do some time-saving bulk editing on my documents input from OCR. I was trying to make one of them work better by converting it to use Range.Find instead of Selection.Find. In doing so I made some improvements that I do not want to lose, but I broke the code in the process and do not see how to correct it. Sub pig() ' line, valid characters are: End:=ActiveDocument.content.End) If rng.Find.Execute Then rng.Select Selection.MoveStart unit:=wdCharacter, count:=1 Selection.Delete I have removed most of the actual functionality to reduce the size of this example which does reproduce the problem. When I run the above code on my text, the first call to rng.Find.Execute works, but the second and subsequent calls fail, somehow I seem to have broken the Range. If I remove the Selection.Delete the find works every time but my code needs to delete the selected text. Please forgive me if I still have some Selection code in there because I am still only a noob at Ranges, and therein may lie my problem. I tried range.delete and range.insertafter to put in the replacement text I want to insert, but it still failed the second time through. How can I avoid destroying the range? |
| Right click freezes Office 2013 Posted: 23 Mar 2015 07:20 PM PDT I have Office Professional Plus 2013 on my single desktop computer, all of the office programs freeze when I right click. Not everytime I right click, but only occasionally (I cannot figure out under what occasion). After freezing, I must restart the program and lose the data. Otherwise, the program works fine. This has been occurring regularly over a couple months, and I've simply been working around it, but it almost seems to be getting worse. I don't have any knowledge on how to solve this particular issue. Any help or suggestions here would be greatly appreciated. I have attempted to contact the support center for this product, but the Windows support webpage misdirects every time I attempt, on every device or web browser. I have not discovered any other way to contact them, so any help on this would also be nice. |
| Word2000 spell checker block "disregarded during the spell check" Posted: 23 Mar 2015 05:16 PM PDT I've never seen this in using Word 2000 for all these years (even before the 2000 version) but it appeared on our secretary's computer (new Dell 3647, Windows 7 Pro, using Office 2000 for Word and Excel only). When you start a spell check, you get a message about a particular block is o be disregarded during the spell check. It first appeared after fooling around with tools>options>spelling where we unchecked the boxes to ignore uppercase and words with numbers. I do not know if we have rechecked that. I will check tomorrow with the secretary. Could that cause the message about disregarding a block? Or what else did we accidentally change? Thanks in advance for any suggestions (but please do not recommend using a newer version of Word. It's possible but I'm am much more comfortable helping her with 2000). |
