If you have not installed on the default web you need to use something

How can i change the name of Organizational Unit

Posted: 17 Feb 2004 01:08 AM PST

You can create new CRM OU (under the OU you are licensed
for) and move the CRM users into the new OU. Typically
for multiple OUs company, we deploy CRM with the top level
as the license OU with child OUs to contain the users.

 
installed CRM you had to insert your OU name and the
license key. Well those two are linked, you cannot use the
same key for another OU. So you'll need to get another
license key and add that OU to CRM as well. Maybe you can
try to copy the users to the other OU, but I have no
experience with it. 

How about an install that works on Win2k3?

What do you mean by a "primary domain controller" in this context?

Thanks

Have you tried to install MS CRM on a completely disconnected machine. Try
to create a primary domain controller and install CRM on it. Use very short
names for the server and the CRM instances. 
and create a organizational unit in Active Directory. Maybe the OU already
exists or is blocked so MS CRM can't create it.

You cannot dynamically load picklists with the contents of another table.
Remember that CRM has to publish data to make the picklist actually work.

Can Works read a Word form field?

James,

Have you tried emptying your cache and rebooting? Someone smarter than me is
probably going to have to come up with a solution for you. But, I have to
ask, is the extra step to use Paste Special really that hard? Good luck.

Microsoft Word - Spacing between list and text (Word 2007/2010)

Spacing between list and text (Word 2007/2010)

Posted: 26 Jan 2013 04:59 AM PST

Hello,

A friend of mine got this problem and, unable to explain it, I'd like to share it with you.

We have a numbered list but some spaces between the numbers and the text are bigger than the others. Here's a photo. If I trie to delete and remake these numbers, nothing changes. By adjusting the number position and the text indent - which affects the whole list - the difference remains.

If I choose Follow number with: Space instead of Tab, the problem's solved but however, it's a bit absurd and annoying if we want some spacing (although I can't tell what my friend really did to come up with this).

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Word "through" setting of text wrapping

I posted this question on another Word forum a year or so ago; no one could supply an answer. Perhaps Susan Barnhill will know.

Attaching a Local Template

Posted: 25 Jan 2013 02:05 AM PST

 

Is what follows an example of attaching a Local Template?

 

1. Office Button

 

New

 

The New Document window opens.

 

2. In the New Document window towards the top left hand corner I click on:-

 

Installed Templates

 

 - so that it's highlighted in orange then, on the right hand side, I click on (for example):-

 

Oriel Letter

 

 - then I click on:-

 

Create

 

A new document now opens.

 

3. In the new document that has just opened I save it as (for example):-

 

c:\word\local_template_testing_jan_25_13_2.docx

 

Thanks in advance for any replies.

Cant open any previous office documents

Posted: 23 Jan 2013 07:47 AM PST

When I try to open a previous office document e.g. a doc or a docx or even a pdf or a powerpoint file whether from the nas shared drives or on c:\
I get an error and basically I cant open any of them.

In Word I get:

Word experienced an error trying to open
the file.
Try these suggetions.
* check the file permissions for the document or drive
* make sure there is sufficient free memory and disk space
* Open the file with the Text Recovery converter


I have another laptop next to this one where I installed Office 2013 and there everything opens perfectly, so it is something with the installation on this machine.

[discuss] 7-Zip Compression Format

------=_Part_27562_25714080.1153231448873
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Content-Disposition: inline

Oh, crud. Sorry. You are right. I just skipped that word somehow. I saw
"next release" and got the installer stuck in my head. My bad.

The main problem with using 7z instead of zip isn't that it's basically not
supported in anything but Windows (because, as the OP said, it's open
source, so we could intragate the compression into OpenOffice.org which
would make it crossplatform). The problem is, ODF is already a standardized
format. Basically, it's too late to be changing it now. If OOo was the
only one to use ODF, then sure, we could change it anytime. But it's a
OASIS standard, and is, or soon will be, an ISO standard. It is used by
other programs, like KOffice, Writely, and AbiWord. It's out of our hands
now.

Whether or not 7z would have been a better choice, I can't say. But it
would be a bad idea for OOo to start using it now, because then we would be
non-standard to the format we helped create.

Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Had I been planning to use it for any length of time, I probably would
have done more to lighten the load, like researching the smallest window
manager, and possibly using AbiWord instead of OOo -- or even emacs and
only starting X when I needed it. There are lots of ways to adjust to
less than optimum hardware if you have to. It's not a big deal unless
you make it one, especially if the alternative is no computer at all.

Hi,
 

i think the original poster has a point, though. That dialog is a severe
break of flow. People are used to hitting DEL to empty the cells
content. Don't we claim "if you can use MS-Office you can use
OpenOffice.org"? This is a usability issue we should think about.

I.e. DEL to clear the content, Shift+DEL to bring up the dialog would
possibly be a better choice.

However, Code Monkey...a friendlier tone would be nice and the OOo
Usability projects issue tracker would be the place to post your complaint.
 

This backspace key functionality is bad in terms of discoverability.

Hi Bill:

Sadly, Yes :-)

I used to be a radio announcer. By the time I finished that gig, I had a
freebee of everything the record companies had put out since YOU were young
( :-) ).

And it was all on vinyl. Sadly, the kinds of people you work with in the
broadcasting industry tend to "party hard" and they associate with a lot of
people who are not necessarily "model citizens".

Sadly, one of these low-lifes backed up a truck one night whilst I was
otherwise distracted in the pursuit of the honour of some nubile young lady
(remember those days??).

And after a few years of having to pretend I liked the most woeful rubbish
on air, my music taste was entirely ruined. I just haven't really bothered
with music since... Sad, isn't it...

So yeah, 20 or 30 CDs just about DOES describe my music collection these
days.

I had thought of advising the customer to rip a few DVDs just to warm the
thing up a bit, but I was not sure he had the software to do that :-)

Cheers

Fact Balloons and Comments HELP!

Posted: 04 May 2007 10:05 AM PDT


One thing I forgot to mention: a great advantage is that you can easily hide
the comments when necessary by re-defining the style as hidden text, in that
document only. This takes only 15 seconds. However, if I want to run off a
PDF or hard copy for someone who doesn¹t need to see them I¹m more likely to
delete the comments altogether by a search-and-replace command (replacing
text in that style with nothing) -- because I usually have my printer set to
print hidden text. This is also quick to do. I immediately follow that with
a Command-z "Undo" command to restore them. If the document is important and
there are many comments, I do it on a Saved As copy.

Office 2004 fonts are corrupt...

Yes, but it would probably be easier to use "Remove Office" then install
Office from the CD.

The fonts in /Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Office/Fonts/ were put
there by the CD Installer to act as a source, backup and repair. They're not
used directly by Office. At the first launch of an Office application they
are copied to ~/Library/Fonts/, replacing any older versions put there by
earlier versions of Office. These are the fonts used by Office and other
applications

The general method of OS X is to look first in your user folder, here
~/Library/Fonts/ . If there happens to be a particular font there, it
overrides any version that may be in /Library/Fonts/ or
/System/Library/Fonts/ - it doesn't even look there for those. In most
cases, once it's done with the user Library, it then looks in
/Library/Fonts/ for any fonts not already found in ~/. Only these fonts from
/Library will appear in the fonts lists. On OS X, most well-behaved
applications installing fonts will do so in ~/Library, since OS X is a
multi-user environment. You or your administrator might choose /Library, but
it will simply get overruled by any user installation of the same fonts.
However, if a user should trash his own fonts, the /Library version will
then come into play. (And it may be that the admin won't let individual
users have permission to remove those.) Finally, if no version of a font
exists in either user or local location the default version in
/System/Library/Fonts will take over. And those can't (i.e. shouldn't - and
don't try) be removed. The system can access these versions as it wishes,
and won't be overruled by other versions of those fonts you might have in
the other Fonts folders which take precedence in other circumstances.

Bar code on bulk mail labels

Well that is interesting news. I, too, am curious as to how Office 2008
will handle these bar codes. It would seem to be something that could and
ought to be done.

cannot download updates for office mac 2004 student/teacher edition

Posted: 28 Apr 2007 10:37 AM PDT

Actually: Ping "download.microsoft.com". I think it will resolve to a
different server than the one I am seeing in Australia. I deduce this from
the fact that I am seeing an 8 millisecond ping time here, and that's not
enough time for the packets to get from one side of the Pacific to the
other, so I suspect they have some very interesting re-directing technology
happening in the middle...

Cheers

For anyone who has recently switched from Windows: it is very rare that you
need to re-install Office on the Mac; sometimes it only adds to your
problems. See other posts in this discussion group.

PC - MAC compatibility

Hi Deena:

I am afraid you have had some very bad advise if someone told you to wipe
your Mac Book drive :-) Well, you will get plenty of sound advice in here
:-)

The shop should have told you that you need 2 GB of RAM to run Parallels --
preferrably 3GB. That's because parallels runs a guest operating system
alongside your Mac OS X operating system. Now, if you think about a house
guest, they don't eat any less food, sleep in a smaller bed, or fit in a
smaller bathroom just because they're guests :-) Operating systems are just
the same. Windows XP needs 512 MB of RAM to run properly, Windows Vista
needs 1 GB. Parallels adds another 100 MB on top of that (that can be
confusing: Parallels requires a minimum of 512 MB of RAM free before it will
agree to start, but it will settle 100 MB higher than whatever the Guest OS
is using.)

Mac OS 10.4 needs at least 1GB of RAM to run properly. If you add these
together: 1GB for OS X, 512 MB for Windows XP, and 100 MB for Parallels, you
need 1,600 MB of memory, before you run any other applications. They will
need more!

If you don't have that much RAM, the system attempts to substitute hard disk
space for RAM. As you have discovered, that makes the system
treacle-in-winter slow :-)

What the shop might not be quite so ready to tell you is that your Macbook
was supplied with all its memory slots full, so you will have to take some
out to put some in. If you want to take your Macbook from 1GB of memory to
2 GB of memory, you will have to discard BOTH the existing 512 MB sticks of
memory and snap in TWO 1 GB sticks. Fortunately, this is easy to do (you
will even find pictures showing you how on the Apple website) and you will
find a ready market on eBay for your discarded sticks of RAM :-).

Now, I use both Entourage and Outlook, depending on whether I am on a PC or
a Mac. You could, of course, use a Hosted Exchange Server. If you did,
your Outlook, Entourage and Blackberry would just connect to it. I used to
work for these people, who offer that service:
http://my.bigpond.com/emailandmessaging/premiummail/solomanagerplus/default.do
However, a moment's thought will show you that their charges are absurd!
And that's because an Exchange Server is such a beast to manage: Microsoft
has a lot of work to do there... There are several providers who offer
Hosted Exchange Servers all over the world. The benefit of that is that you
get to share anything that Outlook and Entourage can do with all of your
devices. At a substantial cost!

However, I believe the best alternative, as others have suggested, is to use
IMAP for your email server. This means that you do not have to synchronise
your mail ANYWHERE. All of your mail remains on the mail server: Entourage
and Outlook only have to display it to you. Entourage is one of the finest
IMAP clients on the planet: Outlook 2007 is not quite as good, but it's
improving :-)

I just log in to which ever computer I am using at the time and I can see my
mail account. Not synchronised copies of it: I see the real Inbox. I am in
Sydney, my inbox is somewhere in the Rocky Mountains of the USA. Who cares:
I can instantly see what's in it :-) The provider I use is www.fastmail.fm
There are a variety of services out there that offer the same thing: and
women are generally a bit more skilled at shopping than men (so they keep
telling me...) so hit the web and go shopping :-)

The first place to look would be the provider that supplies your email now.
They often offer IMAP service for a small extra fee. If they do, you will
only have to change a parameter in your setup: your email addresses will all
remain the same. ISPs hate offering IMAP, because it makes them responsible
for storing the email. But you did not get into business for yourself by
being a door mat: make them an offer they can't refuse and they will soon
see things your way...

The key parameters when buying a mail service are "reliability, reliability,
reliability". I work for myself also: I can't afford an email provider that
suffers fainting fits: the one I use has not inflicted an unscheduled outage
on me in the past five years.

Amongst the reliable providers, you then go shopping for "Storage" and
"Bandwidth". Bandwidth is rarely a large concern: email doesn't use much (I
never use anywhere near 1,000 MB a month ...). But storage can be. My
current provider offers 2GB as standard, and I had a clean-up last week so I
am actually using only 70 MB (which is very light for me: my Archive mail
store, where I put the old and boring junk is 400 MB).

Once you move your email to an IMAP provider, you will find that your
Blackberry will happily connect to IMAP server and show you your email just
like Entourage and Outlook. You can also configure the Blackberry server to
poll your IMAP server and alert you if anything comes in.

OK, that's email: What about your Calendar and your Contacts? These are
things you ARE likely to want to synchronise, so you can use them at times
when your connection is not available. My IMAP provider offers a Contacts
list: nowhere near as good as Outlook or Entourage, but handy to have.

You can publish your Outlook or Entourage calendars to a web server, from
which you can view them on anything. See
http://office.microsoft.com/client/helppreview.aspx?AssetID=HA101743551033&QueryID=s2 OBh9YUx0&respos=3&rt=2&ns=OUTLOOK&lcid=3081&pid=CH 100776881033

You can find other solutions here:
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/share.htm#other

Notice the one thing I have not mentioned is "Synchronisation"? That's
because it is inherently complex and unreliable. PC <-> Mac <->
Blackberry?? That's not just "brave", that's thrill-seeking :-) I have
never known anyone who synchronises a hand-held device who has not blown
away ALL their contacts and appointments SEVERAL times. I simply won't do
it. My business data is too valuable. Your mileage may vary :-)

Hope this helps
