Microsoft Word - Next Record for Mail Merge


Next Record for Mail Merge

Posted: 15 Jan 2013 01:01 PM PST

I'm hoping this is easy.  I've got an Excel datasource used for Mail Merge.  I'm simply trying to take some elements of the spreadsheet and print them out one after the other on a page.  The idea is like this: 

 

COMMENTS REPORT

 

Name:  <<Name>>

Address:  <<Address>>

Comments: <<Comments >>

<horizontal Line>

<<Next Record>>

 

But I can't seem to get the "Next Record" part to work.  What do I need to do to get it to print one record after the next to the end of my recordset? 

 

Thank you!

example, if the label has 20 per page: page 1 has records 1-20, page 2 has records 2-21, page 3 has records 3-22 and so on.
Please help me.

Changing the "page setup" defaults in Word 2003

Posted: 14 Jan 2013 10:50 AM PST

How do I get macros to be included in the templates I create?

Posted: 14 Jan 2013 04:13 AM PST

I create company wide templates and am having problems with macros that are not included/do not work in files created from these templates. When a user creates a document based on a template, the macros either do not work (the button in the access bar is there but I get an error message when I click it. I put this down to macro security settings), or the macros are not included at all, not even the button in the access bar. It does not go systematically wrong, because for some users, everything works great.

There are many posts that deal with macros on Answers, and they all explain the importance if normal.dotm and that that file is supposed to include all macros. My normal.dotm file do not contain any macros, even though I have created numerous ones. The templates I create are distributed to a number of different physical locations by means of a common folder. There is a *.bat file that installs the templates in this location: C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates\.

It seems as if I do something basically wrong when creating the templates with the included macros. What I want is: a user starts a new document from a template, and all styles and macros should be available in that document, no matter where is is subsequently saved. How do I make this possible?

Can macros be included in a template so that subsequent instances of the templates contain full macro functionality, regardless of the location of the originating template or normal.dotm?

Or must:
  • normal.dotm contain all macros, which would entail that we distribute normal.dotm to all users?
  • the originating template, including the macros, be distributed and placed in a defined location on all user computers?

And one final question: must an instance of a *.dotm always be saved as *.docm for macros to work? Can it under any circumstances be a *.docx file? If there is an absolute demand for this, one would think Word would give that as a suggestion when saving a file based on a *.dotm template.


Sorry for the lengthy post, but this is driving me, and many of my fellow users, crazy.


Thanks,

Lars

Word 2010 not printing to scale

Posted: 14 Jan 2013 03:45 AM PST

On office 2010 windows 8. I draw a 10cm box in word but it prints out smaller and not to scale. I have updated my epson printer software, changed paper sizes to A4. Cannot get it to print out to scale without enlarging the document in print settings to 105%? Does anybody know how to fix this?

Adding different page numbers at the bottom of columns

Posted: 14 Jan 2013 03:37 AM PST

I have a single document with each page split into 2 columns; the page is orientated landscape, so when I print it out, I can fold it into a C5 size (i.e. half A4).
I want to add page numbers which will be different at the bottom of each COLUMN, [not each (Word) page], so that the finsihed folded document will show different page numbers on the bottom of each 'page' (= a column), and thus have two page numbers on each sheet of A4 paper.
How can I sue Word to do this automatically please?  Or do I just have to do manul inserts in the page footers, guessing the location of the middle of each column?

The disk I installed some time ago has the notation on its face that it is open linux 2.2

The computer was a windows machine on my peer to peer lan, and since reformatting my c drive with linux 2.2 accesses the internet through the lan's dsl modem, using an obsolete version of netscape (4.1).

Is there a way for me to look at glibc to see what version is there? Or is the only practical solution to download another version of Linux and reinstall it?

Pretty well followed the instructions on the OpenOffice web page for downloading, except rather than /tmp it downloaded to /root/carl

Really appreciate your help,

[discuss] installing 1.1.5 on linux

Posted: 26 May 2006 03:28 PM PDT

The -3 at the end seems to indicate the third build of this version as far as
I know.

If you are running that version of glibc, the distribution is probably quite
old so installing a newer distribution would definitely be a wise option
especially if the hardware is up to it. Most of the distributions are
available free if you choose so the cost is usually not an issue. I think
that would be the best option.

How do I carry on section page numbering and have a landscape page in the middle

Posted: 14 Jan 2013 01:08 AM PST

I started the page numbering after the title and contents page by creating a section break and starting the numbering at this new section.

 

I also added the field "sectionpages" to make it read "page 1 of 5" for example (which will not count the title and contents pages)

I now want to add a landscape page in between several portrait ones.

 

The only way I can see to do this is to have another section break either side of the landscape page.

This resets the "sectionpages" field to start counting from 1 again. I can see how to carry on the page number counting by linking to previous section but I see no way to make the total number of pages carry on.

 

Is there a way to type a formula such that it would create the field 'total number of pages minus 2' i.e. just don't count the title page and contents page?

Or add a landscape page without causing a section break.

 

Thanks for any help,

Andy

need more paper size choices

Posted: 12 Jan 2013 08:07 PM PST

New laptop to create church bulletin.  Installed same Office Home and Student 2007 on the new computer as I had on the old computer.  Emailed a sample of the bulletin to myself to open on the new computer.  First, the fonts are not the same, so adjustments needed to be made - that is only a small problem.  More importantly, I could see the completed page on the screen, then pressed print preview to see the overall look.  The print preview showed 8 1/2 x 14 white area, but a portion of the page did not display (as if the page was only supposed to be 8 1/2 x 12? instead)   I have uninstalled, reinstalled, manually changed the paper size, tried every product update I could find - nothing affected it. Then I thought that maybe the print preview was inaccurate, and if I printed it, it would come out with everything showing just the way I saw it prior to hitting print preview.  It cut the printed page view to the smaller size just the same as the print preview had shown. 

When I check the paper size, there is not a legal size option, as on my other computers.  Is it as simple as needing to find a way to add that to this new computer?  I just don't get why I cannot print it exactly the way that I have prepared it & the way that it looks on my screen.

Trouble Getting Find/Replace to Work Until Changing Forward = True to False

Posted: 12 Jan 2013 03:03 PM PST

I am selecting cells in a table and performing a simple find/replace but it does not work on many of the items unless I keep reselecting the cells and running the procedure several times (runs 6 others). I finally corrected the problem by changing "Forward = True" to False. Why did that fix it? What does that mean?

 

Please review my code below (the first one runs 6 others, plus one of the 6) and let me know if you see any problems. It is very straight-forward. The only difference between the 6 is the target text and the replacement text. Thanks in advance!

Open Office - [discuss] excel->oocalc incompatibility leads to grading "gotchas"


[discuss] excel->oocalc incompatibility leads to grading "gotchas"

Posted: 19 May 2006 03:24 PM PDT

Hi Brian

I'm sorry about the problems you've had, and I'm glad (for you and the =

students) that you discovered the lower marks before it was too late.

You seem to be making three main points, that I'd like to comment on.


1. SOME CALC FUNCTIONS DIFFER FROM EXCEL FUNCTIONS
 

While many of the fuctions work the same way in both programs, there are=
=

functions and notation that do differ.

While I wouldn't like OpenOffice.org to be limited to copying Microsoft'=
s =

functions, I think you are making a good point. If you have an Excel =

spreadsheet that works fine in Excel, and you import it into Calc, you =

would normally assume that the formulas would give the same answers. =

Either the import process should convert the formulas to the equivalent =
=

Calc formulas, or a warning should be given that some formulas in the =

spreadsheet may give different answers to Excel.

Sometimes there is only a slight difference between the formulas, and th=
e =

answers would usually (but not always) be the same. It may be difficult =
to =

determine just how to convert each formula into Calc. In this case, =

changing MIN to MINA would have been appropriate, but would it always be=
=

appropriate in every spreadsheet? That is hard to know.

I'm sure this has been discussed before. Does anyone have some further =

insight?


2. THIS INCOMPATIBILITY WILL DISCOURAGE MIGRATION
 

I disagree with this point - as long as the people considering migration=
=

understand the issues. There is always a cost in migration, and usually =
a =

big part of that cost is learning to do things a new way.

I don't know how many different spreadsheet programs I've used since the=
=

DOS days. It's probably somewhere between 10 and 20. All of them deal wi=
th =

many functions in different ways.

Same goes for word processing. I used to know every function key =

combination for WordPerfect 5.1, and it hasn't helped me one bit in any =
=

word processing program. They all have different features, key =

combinations and menu structures.

But that's the great thing about OpenOffice.org. It's cross platform. Ge=
t =

to know it in Windows, and you can use it in Linux. Possibly that's a =

starting point when talking to your friends - get them to consider =

changing to OpenOffice.org and Firefox, and talk about Linux when they'v=
e =

made that change.

In fact, if you'd created your spreadsheet in OpenOffice.org for Windows=
, =

you wouldn't have had a problem using it in Linux.

In case I wasn't clear, my point is that once people migrate to =

OpenOffice.org, they will be making Calc spreadsheets with Calc formulas=
, =

not Excel spreadsheets with Excel formulas. This situation won't happen =
=

(except for possibly temporarily during the migration).


3. EXCEL'S USE OF THE MIN FUNCTION IS SUPERIOR
 

I appreciate the IMHO, and understand everyone's preferences are differe=
nt.

I don't have a strong preference here, as long as I know how the functio=
n =

will work.

But I did do a quick search in Google, and found quite a few faq's and =

tutorials explaining how to get around the way Excel does MIN. It seems =
=

that a lot of people get a minimum value of 0 when they weren't expectin=
g =

it. A blank cell somewhere was mucking up their expectation of the resul=
ts.

But everyone's different.


Thanks for your honest email, Brian. I think you're main point was numbe=
r =

1, and I think it's fairly valid.

Does anyone have suggestions of a helpful way forward?

Adrian

[discuss] Improving Impress

Posted: 16 May 2006 01:08 PM PDT

Here is a question related to this: there are many sites online that offer
templates and clipart for OpenOffice.org. Rather than including clipart and
template and such that bloat the installer file size, why not create a place
at the www.openoffice.org website that contains these, that users can upload
content to?

I hate to use Microcrap as an example again, but they have a similar service
at http://dgl.microsoft.com that contains clipart, templates, borders, sound
clips, pictures, etc. Could such a service be created at www.openoffice.org
for the OpenOffice.org suite, but also include the ability to have users
upload content? Maybe allow downloads to anyone, but uploaders must create
an account to upload, for tracking info and such?

This would provide a central location for such material, instead of having
to search it out from the myriad of sites that offer portions of such a
service.

Thoughts, comments and ideas?

The wizard has a checkbox on its second page where you can select if you
want to convert documents, templates or both.

Best way is to ask the developer of portable openoffice.org --- John Haller=
,
also remember that 2.0 version is bigger than the original P-OOo

[discuss] Possible OO component to do Publisher functions

Posted: 10 May 2006 10:34 AM PDT

Not as far as I know.

However, the "Draw" component of OOo (OpenOffice.org) can be used for
simple desktop publishing. If you need something more advanced than
publisher, then install "Scribus" from http://www.scribus.net

If you only use Outlook for email & calendar, then Mozilla Thunderbird
and Calendar http://www.mozilla.com/thunderbird might meet your needs.

Hope this helps.

Word Starter 2010

Posted: 11 Jan 2013 04:16 PM PST

I cannot print a document in Word Starter 2010.  It just stays in the print queue & can't be deleted.  Please help. 

No longer able to read or open older Word (.doc) documents using Word 2010.

Posted: 11 Jan 2013 01:08 PM PST

I suspect the problem started after installing Windows updates. 

Word 2010 continues to work normally when using .docx files.  The problem is only with the older, .doc files.  When I try to open older files I am prompted to select the encoding that makes your document readable.  Nothing works.


Error messages since last update

Posted: 11 Jan 2013 01:59 AM PST

Since the most recent batch of automatic updates my wife is having problems with Word. She gets two error messages:

1. When she opens a Word document she gets this "The macro couldn't be found or has been disabled because of your Macro security settings" The documents don't contain macros and she has to click on Close on the message box a couple of times to get rid of it. I have checked that the folder is listed as a Trusted foldee. What is causing this?

2. When she opens a Word document she also gets a secomd blank document which when she closes it she gets A Visual Basic eroor message box that says Automation error. What is causing that?

 

Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks

Tony

 

Page Numbering using Page X of Y

Posted: 10 Jan 2013 06:53 PM PST

I created a document where I am using Page X of Y in the Footer. There is a separate Cover Page and seperate Table of Contents Page along with the regular text. Each of these separations are in separate sections using Section Breaks. Although I have done this the end count of the page numbers are calculated e.g. Page 1 of 8. I only want the sections with the actual documentation calculated e.g. Page 1 of 6, Page 2 of 6, etc.

 

I try to edit the fields by manually changing the numbers and that worked fine; however, when pages are added, then the count goes to e.g. Page 7 of 6,(because the manually edited ones will not change).

 

Any help in getting this sorted out is greately appreciated.

 

 

Windows 8 Missing ODBC FoxPro Files

Posted: 10 Jan 2013 03:00 PM PST

My Office 2003 and Project 2003 programs ran perfect with Windows XP Pro.  I just bought a new Dell XPS 8500 with Windows 8 Pro.  During installation both programs report the following error:  Error 1919 and ODBC error 6....missing FoxPro files.  I can not find a solution using the MS Knowledge database since none of the relevant articles address Windows 8.

 

Need help in finding a solution.

I'm having problems previewing envelopes created by a mailmerge in Word 2010 using data from Excel 2010.

Posted: 10 Jan 2013 11:51 AM PST

When I used Office 2003, I was able to create envelopes by using the mailmerge feature in Word 2003 and address data from an Excel 2003 worksheet. After the merge was completed, I was able to preview each envelope prior to printing for a final check. Now, after upgrading to Office 2010, I'm no longer able to preview the results of the merge.
