Change the position indicator in a word document

Posted: 05 Dec 2012 10:09 PM PST

I need to increase the thickness of the indicator which is shaped like a capital I, but with I hyphen line on the top and bottom. I want to make it easier to see. I have asked this question before and received a correct answer, but I cannot find it now.

problem on page numbering

Posted: 05 Dec 2012 05:26 PM PST

i wanted to insert page numbers on my doc. I've followed  the commands accordingly and it appears ok on the screed. But when I print it out,  it appears on the doc : { page \ * mergeformat }  instead of number 1,2,3, on every pages. Why the page number not appreared ?

How can I simplify the creation of a macro for my users

Posted: 05 Dec 2012 01:48 PM PST

I recorded a set of simple macros and added them to a tab on a customized ribbon.  It works fine, but now I have to roll this customized ribbon out to my users and I'd like them to take ownership of updating the macros and adding new ones.  The problem is even if I give explicit instructions on how to do this, I fear they still will not be able to do it without calling me for help.  Is there a way I can simplify the steps involved in recording a macro and adding it to a tab on the ribbon?  I guess I'm asking if you can create a macro that creates a macro?

 

Here is a sample of the type of macro I created:

Sub Macro2()
'
' Macro2 Macro
'
'
    Selection.TypeText Text:="This is a test." & vbTab
    Selection.InsertDateTime DateTimeFormat:="M/d/yyyy h:mm am/pm", _
        InsertAsField:=False, DateLanguage:=wdEnglishUS, CalendarType:= _
        wdCalendarWestern, InsertAsFullWidth:=False
End Sub 

 

The bolded section is all the users would need to be able to add or modify.

How well does Microsoft Word on the Surface handle documents that have tables and check boxes?

Posted: 05 Dec 2012 12:10 PM PST

Can anyone confirm how capable Word is at handling documents with tables and check boxes? This is the most important thing for me at the moment looking for a tablet and I just can't seem to find any apps on iOS or Android that can so just want to make sure that Word on the Surface RT has this full functionality.

Incorrect icon for word and powerpoint 2010 on windows 8.

Posted: 04 Dec 2012 12:31 PM PST

I recently got a Samsung series 5 13 inch with touchsreen.  First day I got it, I activated my 2010 microsoft office code that I have had since 2010 (last computer) and after the first couple of day of using word everything was fine.  However, when I turned on my computer one day, all the icon images for word and powerpoint have changed to generic incorrect ones.  They are the same, and I don't know which of the two I'm clicking when they are on the task bar.

Not only is the icon wrong on the desktop, but it is wrong (for both programs) on the start tiles and when I search through all the apps in the metro interface.  In addition, when I go through "libraries", a blank page is the icon next to each file, not the usual "w" or "p".  This doesn't seem to hinder the use of the programs and seems more of a cosmetic issue, but this is a new computer and I would like for it to at least look like everything is working properly.

Thank you to whoever takes the time to read this.

multilevel list styles,

Posted: 04 Dec 2012 12:25 PM PST

Two issues on this specific outline. I want "ARTICLE I" centered, bold, all caps with the title underneath same formatting. The auto number here is the "ARTICLE I". The the next level for numbering is 1.1, tab, text. (left margin, .5 indent, bold)

When I set that up, the ARTICLE I centering is off and the second issue I have is can't figure how to make the second level number automatically go to 2.1 under ARTICLE II.

I have linked the mulilevel numbering list to the Heading Styles accordingly. That works great but having the centering issue on the first level and when I'm in Article II, I need level 2 to be 2.1, ARTICLE III, 3.1, etc.

i have this sentence:

Posted: 04 Dec 2012 11:17 AM PST

"Naturally this is becomes a hot topic for conspiracy theorists". 

what do i have to turn on to get word to realise that the "is" shouldn't be there? it's not flagging it at all and would like it to notice things like this when i'm on a typing run!

Redhat 9 with 2.6 Kernel Upgrade from Source
Mike Chirico
Last Updated: Thu Feb 19 10:41:38 EST 2004

The latest version of this document can be found at:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/souptonuts/README_26.txt?download

For configs ref:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=79320&package_id=109944



STEP 1:

Download the latest version of the kernel and any patches. This
documentation
is done with linux-2.6.3, but look for later versions.
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/

Also take a look at http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/post-halloween-2.5.txt
This has some useful hints on some of the changes needed.

STEP 2:

Download the latest version of module-init-tools
[module-init-tools-3.0-pre10.tar.gz] and modutils-2.4.21-2x.src.rpm

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rusty/modules/

STEP 3:

Install module-init-tools. This will replace depmod [/sbin/depmod] and
other tools.

tar -zxvf module-init-tools-3.0-pre10.tar.gz cd
module-init-tools-3.0-pre10 ./configure --prefix=/sbin make make
install

STEP 4:

Install modutils-2.4.21-23.src.rpm. You'll may get warnings about user
rusty and group rusty not existing. Also, yes, you'll have to force the
install. If you don't do these steps for both Redhat 9 and Redhat 8, you'll
have problems with the make modules_install.

rpm -i modutils-2.4.21-23.src.rpm
rpmbuild -bb /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/modutils.spec
rpm -Fi /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/modutils-2.4.21-23.i386.rpm

STEP 5:

Install and configure the kernel. Do NOT use the /usr/src/linux area!
Reference the README. I put my files in /home/src/kernel/

gunzip linux-2.6.3.tar.gz tar -xvf linux-2.6.3.tar cd linux-2.6.3

If you have patches install these now:

bzip2 -dc ../patch-2.6.xx.bz2 | patch -p1

STEP 6:

Copy the appropiate /usr/src/linux-2.4/configs [kernel-2.4.20-i686.config,
kernel-2.4.20-i686-smp.config] to .config in /home/src/kernel/linux-2.6.3

cp /usr/src/linux-2.4/configs/kernel-2.4.20-i686.config
/home/src/kernel/linux-2.6.3/.config

If you don't have the source configs, you can download them from here:

https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=79320&package_id=109944

I've also included a file config2.6-chirico which was a 2.6 version for some
of my systems. This isn't a bad reference if you run into trouble.

STEP 7:

Assuming you copied the appropriate kernel-2.4 config to .config, run the
following which will run through necessary questions for the 2.6 kernel. Or,
you might want to use the config2.6-chirico...this has already been run
through make oldconfig on my system, and I've answered the necessary
questions
for a general system.

make oldconfig

STEP 8:

This is very important. Make sure you're .config has the following in it
CONFIG_EXT3_FS=y You'll run into the following error if you leave this =m
instead of =y:

pivotroot: pivot_root(/sysroot,/sysroot/initrd) failed

This is because Redhat 9.0 and 8.0 user the ext3 filesystem for /boot ...


STEP 9:

Edit the Makefile and add changes to the Extraversion is needed. Patches
will
update these values as well.

VERSION = 2
PATCHLEVEL = 6
SUBLEVEL = 3
EXTRAVERSION = -skim-ch6

STEP 10:

make bzImage

STEP 11:

make modules

STEP 12:

make modules_install


STEP 13:

make install

If you come across errors here, what version of "depmod" is being picked
up in your path?

STEP 14:

mkdir /sys

STEP 15:

/etc/rc.sysinit needs to be modified. Look for the following line

action $"Mounting proc filesystem: " mount -n -t proc /proc /proc

and after this line enter the following:

action $"Mounting sysfs filesystem: " mount -n -t sysfs /sys /sys

Here's my /etc/rc.sysinit for reference:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/souptonuts/rc.sysinit.txt?download



Be very careful at this step. Backup the /etc/rc.sysinit file. I didn't
need any USB support, but your configuation may need it.

Thomer [http://thomer.com/linux/migrate-to-2.6.html ] also added changes
to /etc/fstab. I did NOT have to do this. No harm in addding; you'll just
get errors when booting that it can't be mounted twice.

STEP 16:

Check the following:

a. The new image file should be installed on boot and there should be sym
link to it. My latest kernel is 2.6.3-skim-ch6, and I got the "-skim-ch6"
from the values I put in the Makefile, so I see the following:

/boot
vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-2.6.3-skim-ch6
System.map -> System.map-2.6.3-skim-ch6

/boot/grub/grub.conf Should have been automatically updated from make
install and look something like the the following:

# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this
file
# NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
# root (hd0,2)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda6
# initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,2)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Linux (2.6.3-skim-ch6)
root (hd0,2)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.3-skim-ch6 ro root=LABEL=/
initrd /initrd-2.6.3-skim-ch6.img

b. The directory /sys exists

c. You added the mount command for sys

d. CONFIG_EXT3_FS=y was used in the .config

I've tried to learn more about grub, but did not find it very easy, and did
not find so many resourses (at least at this moment, it was easier to go

Locking users to dir

What do you mean by "locking"? When set correctly, UNIX file system

world writable dirs) and that other homedirs are not readable by him.

If you want to provide a restricted environment, for example one where he
does not have access to all binaries and cannot see your configuration
files, you can achieve this by using chroot. Check out

Microsoft Word - Too Many Spaces Between Senteces

Microsoft Word - Too Many Spaces Between Senteces

Too Many Spaces Between Senteces

Posted: 05 Dec 2012 05:49 AM PST

My documents frequently have too many spaces (2,3,4,5) between sentences, as a result of all my editing. It's cumbersome to remove all these spaces. Is there a way to quickly or automatically remove all these excess spaces, without changing the space between paragraphs? I don't want to merge paragraphs. Whithin a paragraph, I do want my sentences separated by a single space. I'm not sure how to do this with the standard Word commands. Could a macro perform this function? What macro do you suggest? Thank you. 

Tool to tally number of captions in a Word document

Posted: 05 Dec 2012 05:20 AM PST

Is there a plug-in or offline (batch) tool that provides a count of the number of captions (for figures and tables) in a Word document (or for all word documents in a folder)? 
The reason for asking this question is that we will shortly have to make all documents comply with accessibility standards which will require alt text to be prepared and inserted for all plots and tables, and I would like an automated way of calculating amount of work (have many hundreds of documents that are potentially affected).  The next step would be to create the alttext 'offline' and then insert automatically.

Quotation Marks do not appear correctly when typed in front of a word beginning with a vowel.

Posted: 04 Dec 2012 05:16 PM PST

My father-in-law has a new computer with the Microsoft Home Office version (a.k.a. Student version); he has problems with quotations in Word:  when he tries to type a vowel or a word beginning with a vowel in quotes, ie "a", he gets a with two dots above it.  This only happens on words which begin with a vowel.  His language is set as English and all other keys/letters and symbols work fine.  Also, when he hits the quotation key, the quote marks to not appear until he types a word or hits the space bar.  How can he fix his quotation marks so they type correctly for words begining with a vowel?

bookmarks as an external reference document

Posted: 04 Dec 2012 02:04 PM PST

i placed all my bookmarks on page 1, and numerous reference fields throughout the document pull info from these entries. when i distribute the document i want to delete the bookmark page, but then all my reference fields change to Error! (etc). Can i make the bookmark page an external reference source and still keep the data intact in my document? I have a macro to update all fields and it works fine within the document. when i print-preview it also updates the fields and that works fine as well. it isn't until i delete the bookmark page that the reference fields go into error.  also, when i distribute the document, i convert it to pdf because i have a lot of formatting in it and i worked hard to develop this document, i'm not willing to share the formatting, only the content. when i convert to pdf, all reference fields go to error, even if i don't update them after deleting the bookmark page.
i've been using this document template just fine for years in other versions of word - it's only the word 2010 that has this problem with the changes in developers tools. i am sure it can be done - i just don't know how.
does anyone know how this can be approached?

How to replace external links with internal links

Posted: 03 Dec 2012 11:31 AM PST

I have a Word document with roughly 500+ links that all link back to the original document. This means that when I click on a link it opens a new copy of the document. Is there a way to remove the external part of the link while maintaining the individual link?

Example of link in edit mode:
../../Downloads/LCM%20Training%20Manual3.doc#_Use_case:__5

If I manually remove the path and just leave #_Use_case:__5 the link converts to an internal one. Is there any way to do this on a mass scale?

I have already tried to hit alt+F9 and use replace to remove the start of the link, but it still appears to direct to the same point.

What do I have to do to activate the Word program? Microsoft has given me time till 5th December. After that what happens? Incidentally the Word software that was installed by the company I purchased this computer when I was in the USA in Oct/Nov 2012, had installed the word software and I was give Windows 8 also.

Inserting a running number after every 120 words of text in document

I do a weekly radio talk and I need to pace, the speed at which I talk.
What I need is a marker, say a running number in brackets, something like [*1*], [*2*], [*3*] etc to appear after every 120 words.
The number of words could vary.
What I have been doing is manual numbering, this is tedious and if there are any edits, then I have to re-number all over again.
Thanks in advance.

Why does the print settings "stick" on subsequent print jobs?

Posted: 03 Dec 2012 03:19 AM PST

Hi,

I have print macros which allows users to print from different printer trays., i.e. Print letterhead and plain copy, print letterhead only etc. We have used these Macros for years without any hitch on Word 2003.  Recently we have had some new PCs in stalled with Windows 7, Word 2010 installed.  The macros still work but if we then open an invoice and change the printer to "Print on both sides x 3 copies" (which again we have always done in Word 2003 without problems) then any subsequent jobs sent to the printer retain these settings regardless of which macro we use to print.

It seems the only way to get rid of the "print on both sides x 3" setting is to Quit Word and start again which we have to do after printing every invoice!!

This has only happened since going to Word 2010.

 

Thank you,

D Smith

Calibri no longer an option after installing Office 2013 RTM

Posted: 02 Dec 2012 07:59 PM PST

I think I need to reinstall Calibri on my Windows 8 machine. It seems to have disappeared after I uninstalled the beta version of Office 2013 and installed the RTM version of Office 2013. According to the Control Panel/Appearance and Personalization/Fonts/Calibri, I now only have Calibri Light and Calibri Light Italic installed.

 

In Word, the Font box displays "Calibri (Body)" as the default font for the Normal style, but in fact Times New Roman seems to be used as the default font instead. Also, "Calibri" does not appear in the "All Fonts" section of the Font list. I only see "Calibri Light." This is what I would expect to see if Calibri was not installed on my computer.

 

Am I correct that I need to reinstall Calibri? If so, where can I get a copy of Calibri and its variations to install on my Windows 8 computer? The Microsoft site sends me into an endless loop with information about the font, but with no options for downloading it that don't involve paying a lot of money.

 

Thanks for any help you can offer.

spellcheck exceptions

I can not enable spellcheck on all my documents. with word 2003 and word 2007 it was automatically enabled.  I went to options/proofing and saw my documents were listed under "exceptions"  it was impossible to put a "none" or something like that so right now I am so frustrated with NO spellcheck.  My only options were "all new docs" and the current doc"  

HowTo Open Word Or Excel Without New Doc (or spreadsheet)

Posted: 02 Dec 2012 02:30 PM PST

In an older version of Excel and Word there was a way to get them to open without the blank document or spreadsheet.  I can't remember where the option was located, but it there was a file location where at the end you added (space)/e or something ... There was a different letter after the / in the other program ... Sorry to be so vague, but that's all I remember and the computer that had this version of Word and Excel finally died and I've upgraded to Windows 7.

WPS files are unreadable since downloading Microsoft Office 2010.

Posted: 02 Dec 2012 12:51 PM PST

I just downloaded Microsoft Office 2010.  Since doing this, all of my WPS files are unreadable.  I can right click and select "open with Microsoft Word" and each individual file will do that, but there are over 1,400 of these files.  Is there a way of doing them all, or do I just have to change each one individually as I use the file?

How do I stop Word opening in previously opened folder?

Posted: 02 Dec 2012 04:34 AM PST

When I hit the Open button in Word to go to my Documents, and thence into my folders, then files, it often opens immediately in a folder from where I have last opened a file. In other words it is intuitively expecting me to want to open another file in the same folder. I would rather it always opened in My Documents . Is there a way of telling it to do this?

Color of track changes in Word 2013

Posted: 01 Dec 2012 07:00 PM PST

I just downloaded the Microsoft Office Professional 2013.  In trying Word 2013, I found two problems with the "track changes" function.  First, I had to save my word file in a "new format" in order for this to work.  Second, the color of the changes was the same as the original (which means I can't see it).  I tried to change the color - but was unsuccessful.  If I open the "track changes" document in Word 2010, it shows those changes in red.  Is this a "trial" issue - i.e., just a feature not yet installed, or ???

avery app doesn't work

Posted: 01 Dec 2012 05:02 AM PST

I had problems with Word in Office Preview 365 Home Premium and uninstalled it.
Apparently, on the 18th of November I had tried to install the Avery App into Word 2013 following the instructions to the letter. I am trying to install it again into the new Office 365 and when I get into Word > Insert > Apps for Office > See all > Select the Avery App > I'm then taken to the interned where I can click Add > which takes me right back to the instruction screen that shows how to add it from word. I'm never given the opportunity to "insert" after clicking on the Avery App in Word, it just goes right to the internet.
If I click on manage my apps, on the internet I shows I already have it installed.
How can I get rid of this (since it is not installed) and get the proper instructions/method to install it. I've tried this over and over again and it just doesn't work.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you
Jerry

How can I copy text or full pages from internet into word 2010 avoiding black 'blob' in word

Posted: 01 Dec 2012 04:53 AM PST

Whenever I try to copy text or full pages from Internet into Word, the Paste options are never available, on simple paste; the text / full page does not appear on the Word page. Instead a black 'blob' appears on Word page. I was advised to try copying into into Notepad then into Word to see if this cured the problem, but it didn't the black 'blob' reigned supreme! Can anybody help?

Adjusting text height within a table's cell

Posted: 30 Nov 2012 04:35 PM PST

I have added a column to a table, using Office 2010.  However, when entering text into the new cells, using 12-point type, only the lower half of the text shows.  I have looked at Table Properties for a way to correct this, but don't seem to be able to find an answer.

How to remove phantom pages in a numbered document

Posted: 30 Nov 2012 06:51 AM PST

I have written a book and submitted to Amazon's printing service.  I received a hard copy proof and, stupidly, tried to make one more change - to remove page numbers from blank, even-numbered pages preceeding a new chapter.  I succeeded.  However, upon re-submission, I am told I have two additional blank pages following the first one and, indeed, their proof shows the two added pages, also completely blank with no numbers.

I am unable to remove the two pages that I can't see in my document.  I have fooled around with section breaks til I'm blue in the face.  Any suggestions?

AFTER RESETTING USER OPTIONS NO FILES FOUND AFTER FIX

Posted: 30 Nov 2012 04:39 PM PST

After looking up the issues that I had with Word -I went  onto Microsoft webpage.

 

I did not do a fix manually.

 

I used the search - word could not create the work file - check the temp environment variable.

 

I did the downloading of the automatic fix it so I could operate my documents that I had of Microsoft Word 2007.

 

I went back to open my documents - lost all autorecovery documents that I had. The history has gone.

 

I have tried opening documents - they only came up as read only - I get the message that they are open in another instance of Word.

 

This is the fix it that I used - Microsoft Fix it 50599.

 

If some one that can assist me as I have lost some very large documents. All started with a message on word that the normal template would change and I just said yes without thinking. Then I start getting the message that check temp environment variable.

 

Thank you

When a customer clicks on links that I place in my sales page and my ebook,, a pop-up appears on the screen that shows the url and other data that I don't want displayed to my customer.


How do I turn these pop ups off? I already turned off Two Clicks (control and click) but I want to turn off this pop-up completely as previously mentioned.
