Are there different cell formats in many of the cells? That can slow

too).

I think I myself once wrote that only very little results come from the
discussions here - which might have been too pessimistic, but anyway.

The situation as it is, lays more responsability on the shoulders of
those (from the devs) that remained. It is good if they can pick up the
fruitfull discussions, or ideas that are ready to use, to guide them to
another level :-)

[discuss] Linux versions

Posted: 28 Aug 2006 08:27 AM PDT


OK this has worked great - thanks, Alexandro and Peter. I didn't even
know it was possible to convert rpm to deb! Incidentally my language
pack debs end with 2.0.3-7 while the official release ones converted
from rpm end 2.0.3-8 but this doesn't seem to have affected the
functionality. Maybe there are no major differences between them?

Thanks again,
Steve.

If its used as the internal format they would have to drop MSOOXML and

variants. I think they would be likely to lose that battle since the who
would use a non-free broken version when they can have a free version
that does what is required?
 

Look at it this way. Treat MSOOXML as an incompatible ODF. Both ODF and
MSOOXML are based on XML and similar approaches to the same issue. I
can't see any advantage in moving from MSOOXML to ODF and then breaking
it. If having a format that breaks the standard works, just stick with
MSOOXML.
 

But the browser wars were a lot different to this battle. MS are not
giving MSO away free with their operating system. If they decide to do
that, perhaps your concerns are justified but if they do that they lose
nearly half their operating income so I just don't see that happening
any time soon. I'd say a port of MSO to Linux was a lot more likely.

Imagine MS had been charging $50 for IE against Netscape being free. Do
you think they would have had the take up to start dictating web
standards? I don't.
 

Agreed.

CRM Not finding local server in the deployment app

The steps are outlined in the implementation guide. This is
definately a product where you need to follow the steps very
carefully.

Basically, you go into the web interface, go into settings, business
units, users, select you admin user and then assign a license via the
License tab.

Hi Steve, you can absolutley do this, but it's not officially supported. It
works at the schema/form level, but there is no UI tool that helps you do
it.

1) Export your schema from deployment manager
2) Manually add events to the desired for fields (using existing field
events as examples). Be carefull not to break your schema!
3) Re-import your schema.

I'd do it on a test system first.

Recover licences

Posted: 19 Feb 2004 07:33 AM PST

You have to do this through the SQL Server Query Analyzer. If you are
not comfortable doing this DON'T DO IT. Also, back up your database
before running any scripts. Here's the directions for removing the
license:
1) Load Query Analyzer
2) Copy the table SystemUserLicenses to SystemUserLicensesB
-> Select * into SystemUserLicensesB from SystemUserLicenses
3) List the contents of SystemUserBase, ordered by Full Name
-> Select * from SystemUserBase order by FullName
4) Locate the user you want to delete
5) Copy the SystemUserID of the user to memory
6) Delete the License entry in SystemUserLicenses
-> Delete SystemUserLicenses where SystemUserID = '{insert
SystemUserID here}'
NOTE: the ' and {} are required as part of the string.

Again, if anything is not clear or you do not feel comfortable doing
this, STOP.

I'm using WORD 2010, and the "look up" function has stopped working. The Thesaurus still works, but I cannot look up words in my document--I have to use the internet! This started a few days ago, and I cannot get it to acknowledge that it is not working! I've tried hitting "update" on the "look up" section, and it says everything is up-to-d, ate. The "look up" dictionary is the Encarta Dictionary. This is what I usually use, however, I have Bing, Factivia iWorks, and High Beam (TM) Research installed under the research sites, as well. I have not changed any settings, except to hit update. Please help!

Display of Calibri font in Outlook and Word 365 is corrupted

Posted: 01 Feb 2013 01:48 PM PST

How can I repair the corrupted display of Calibri (body) font in Outlook and Word 365? Can I download/reinstall Calibri font files?

 

The display of Calibri font on one of my computers was corrupted at some point during or after upgrading to Windows 8 (from Windows 7) and to Office 365 Home Premium (from Office Home & Student 2010). This problem never existed prior to the upgrades.

 

I first noticed this in Outlook text e-mails where the font was a gibberish of music notes and symbols (I do have music software installed on my computer by the way, to include Sibelius 7, Pro-Tools, Adobe Creative Suite CS6 apps). Display problems with Calibri font also exists in Word (which I understand works within Outlook). No other fonts or apps on my system have this problem.

 

Steps I have taken so far (that have not resolved the problem):

 

  1. Tested other apps and fonts to determine which are affected
  2. Ran scan for virus/malware (IOLO System Mechanic Pro) and no viruses or malware were detected
  3. Determined that display of Calibri (body) font is the only corrupted font, and only in Word and Outlook 365
  4. Determined that Calibri font works fine in all other Office Apps (Excel, Access, Publisher, One Note)
  5. Deleted Calibri font from the fonts folder (but somehow applications still find and use Calibri)
  6. Ran the Office 365 on-line repair function, but corrupted display of Calibri in Outlook and Word still exists
  7. Submitted my question to this forum :-)

 

 

Note that although I changed the default Outlook fonts to Arial, when I reply to messages, the automatically generated From, Sent, To, and Subject header information is still in the (corrupted) Calibri font, though I can highlight and change that font to one that works.

 

Note also that this is apparently only a display problem. If I forward an e-mail with corrupted Calibri font to another of my e-mail accounts and access it from any other computer or smartphone, the text displays properly.

 

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Is there a way to create a chart in my Word document from maimerge data?

Posted: 29 Jan 2013 11:07 PM PST

I'll try to explain : I have an excel file with per row client information containing name, address, some other data and spread over 4 columns sales data from for example year1, year2, year3 and year4. I've created a mailmerge document which collects data from this excel file (per row) so I have a seperate page per client which shows his info.

Now, I would like to have on each page a chart created from that sales data, so this chart should be dynamically updated with the info which is on each page (and of course is different). Is there any way to do this automatically? I really can't get my head around this. When I add a chart it starts a small (new) excel file, and there seems no way to link the chart to either info on the word document itself, nor to the excel file which I use to gather the mailmerge data.

I believe the question may be related to how Works Calendar

See Internet Explorer>Tools>Internet Options>Programs>Calendar.

I also believe that Works Calendar has to be disassociated from

I have One trick that you have use to solve the problem.

Copy the row in the table.( Select the entire row and
copy it).
To paste follow this step.
Edit -> Paste special -> As ( Choose Unformatted text in
the list of options)
Click Ok.

Since you chose that option the formatting of the table

Hi Rex,

Sometimes, it is a problem with the latest driver that causes this.

In such a situation a search can be made for an older or
compatible printer driver.

If you care to email the file to me I shall investigate for you.

Seemingly the £20 deal is a genuine CD ROM (Works only) in basic packaging
and no handbook, as opposed to Works Suite which is about £90.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Ken,

Thanks for the help. I think I heard that process before but forgot when I needed it.
I just tried it and it worked OK.

Now I only wonder why Works crashes if I try to rearrange the fields in the document being merged.

Thanks again,

install 97 first, then 2003 - however, you will only be able to use outlook
2003. The other office apps should work just fine, save for the default
shortcuts. You'll need to create ones for 97 yourself... double clicking
files will open in 2003.

Office 97 disks

Posted: 04 Jun 2004 07:01 AM PDT

Corinne,

Are you likley to do any serious computing tasks such as Backups and all
that? If so then your $60 or so would be better spent buying an external
CDRW which can be run from your USB and/or Parallel port. USB versions
are quite cheap these days and buying one of these would not make a big
dent in your bank balance.

If your machine hasn't got a USB port then you need to get one which can
be connected to your Parallel port. Micro-Solutions have backpack
versions. Try this link:

Unfortunately, Office97 is not used widely never mind using floppy disks
to install modern programs!
