Winmail.dat files are *not* what they may seem to be. They are generated by
Exchange Server and are not the document files themselves. You can Google
for winmail.dat & get about 600,000 hits, but this is a good place to start:

Thanks Diane,
I'm using the Entourage that comes with the Office v.x not Office
2004. Anyway I have set up so automatically downloads the emails from
the server so the server is empty. The emails keep coming but I can't
access the Inbox folder or any other folder. As soon as I click on any
of them the application crashes. Is there anyway I can get to the
downloaded emails in my computer so I can check for corrupted emails?
Thanks so much,
Javier

Hi Dick:

Yeah, I have Vista here, but I have no idea what would cause that one...

As the others have suggested, you would be better off asking in a Vista

Another voice in the choir here:-0

Technically, No - the assumption in the EULA being that *you* aren't using
both systems simultaneously. Also, if the two units are networked the second
iteration will be denied if the same keyed copy is already in use by the
other. Obviously, however, if there is no connection between the two systems
the one can't detect what the other is running.

Options to quit:

2. Double-click the Office Notifications program, located in the Microsoft

Office Notifications.

3. Fire up Activity Monitor, look for 'database daemon' and choose 'quit

Every time I run the spellcheck in Office 2004 for mac it quits.

Posted: 27 Aug 2007 08:14 AM PDT

That was an early bug caused by the presence of Unicode characters in the
custom dictionary.

I would be surprised if it has come back again, but to prove it, try the
following:

1) Locate your custom dictionary and change the name of it (all Office
applications must be quit when you do this).

2) Create a new file named the same name as your custom dictionary in
TextEdit. Make sure you convert the file to Plain Text before you save it.

It doesn't matter whether the file has anything in it or not, so long as it
IS plain text and it has no Unicode characters in it. For the purposes of
this test, I would leave it blank.

Now try again: if this is the problem, Word will not crash. You can copy
the content of your previous custom dictionary into the new one, making sure
you do not have any characters other than the ANSI character set in it.

And if this is the problem, try re-applying the last three Office Updates:
this bug was fixed early in the life of the product...

Cheers

This sounds like a system level problem. One of the quickest and easiest
ways to solve system wide problems is to run the latest Apple combo updater.
Doing so overwrites potentially problem-causing files. Combo updaters will
install on the same version as they¹re applying‹no need to roll back or do a
clean install.

You mentioned you had a MacPro so you'll need this combo updater:

Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update (Intel)

<http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx10410combo
updatev11intel.html>

Be sure to restart and run Repair Permissions after running the combo
updater.

Using Repair Permissions after installing MS Office or any application that
uses an installer is often advised. To use Repair Permissions:

1. Open Disk Utility in your Applications/Utility folder.
2. Click on the First Aid tab and select Repair Permissions
3. Click on the icon for your boot volume.
4. Click the repair permissions button.

Don't run from CD. Updates contain a newer versions of the application's
permissions.

If you can't run "Remove Office" from the CD after this, you'll need to do
an "Archive & Install". We'll help you with that if needed.

Need Help with Making Address Labels with Data Merge

Posted: 21 Aug 2007 06:45 PM PDT

late addendum--cc'ing to the poster's email (maybe--if Thunderbird behaves).

on the Data Merge Manager palette, when you hit the Preview button, it
will show the first page of labels. But you have to hit a Merge button
(Merge to New Document preferred over Merge to Printer) to get all the
data used, and actually get your 24 pages of labels with different
addresses on every label.

The Preview button is a big trickster--many people have been trapped in
this way, because it looks like you are all done when you get that first
sheet of merged labels.

Word 2010: Edit Pages Document?

Posted: 17 Mar 2013 06:17 AM PDT

Word (Office) 2010 on Win 7.
I am trying to work on a document with my wife on her iPad. She has the Pages for iOS.
Pages will open a .dotx document. But most of the formatting is lost. Table of Contents, etc.
So I thought I might try the other way around. Before I try it I thought I'd check here.
Is it possible for Word 2010 to open a Pages created document, retain all the formatting, then return it to the iOS device
for more editing in Pages?

Bullets, Font size, Table of Contents, Headers, Footers, Page Numbering, Tables, maybe a jpeg imbed?

Thanks for any thoughts or advice.

Help!! Spelling check Ignore options are not working correctly. Or am I losing my mind?

Posted: 15 Mar 2013 10:41 AM PDT

Hello.

 

I am finding that the "Ignore" and the "Ignore All" functions are not working as I expect them to, AND also as I believe they used to. But I am beginning to wonder if I'm just remembering incorrectly, even though I have used this function for years.

 

As I recall (and as would make sense), if you used one of the those options on a word that is flagged as misspelled, then either that single instance of the word would no longer be flagged (the "Ignore" option), or ALL instances of the word in that document would no longer be flagged (the "Ignore All" option.) Additionally, these choices would stick even AFTER the doc had been closed and reopened.

 

In other words, both Ignore and Ignore All are both document-specific, but are NOT session-specific.

 

That had been my experience for years starting with Word 97 and up through every version INCLUDING the Word 2007 that I'm currently using.

 

This is no longer working. Words that I have set to be ignored, using EITHER the Ignore or Ignore All options are reverting back to being flagged, sometimes as soon as I type elsewhere in the doc, or after some indeterminate period of time after.

 

These are all standard Word docx files, nothing fancy. Nor are they long -- it happens regardless of the doc length.

 

I have searched for information on this but haven't found anything helpful.

 

Am I incorrect about how this is supposed to work? Am I losing my mind, given that I believe it used to work that way? It's hard to imagine that I am just discovering this after so many years of daily, heavy Word use.

 

I'm hoping for a solution as this is EXTREMELY frustrating, as the only workaround I've found is to *add* these words to my custom dictionary file, which I would rather not do for any number of reasons, including that I some of the words I want to ignore are being irregularly spelled intentionally for THAT document only, so adding them to the would be undesirable.

 

Anyone? Please??

 

Thank you!!!

Thanks for the reply. I apologize for the term Master
Schedule. Our Master Schedule is the only schedule.
What I meant to say was it is our master format for all
projects. Our schedule has no other schedules inserted
into it. All of our projects use a baseline type
schedule. On a weekly basis, we update actuals to
compare to baseline. Our problem is that when we enter
dollar amounts either via dynamic linking to excel or by
manual input and say save baseline, the costs ($) show a
zero value in the schedule. Should we just save schedule
as baseline with no values, enter values then save file
(do not save as baseline)? We want to have those initial
values for comparison to actuals. How do we go about it?

Resources Showing Overallocated for work already complete!

Give in the work before June as Actual Work, not as Work (that was my point,

Resource Levelling problem

Posted: 16 Jun 2004 03:27 AM PDT

Hi Jan,
The problem is that, the execution of these groups of
tasks is dynamic, depending upon the availability of the
resource and the completion of its predecessor task.
let me take an example.
Suppose there is a group with 5 tasks with priority 250.
And there is a group with priority 300. The 300 priority
group could not be started because of its predecessor not
being completed. Meanwhile, the 250 priority group starts
off during this time. But after completing 3 of its 5
tasks, Project finds that the 300 priority group is
ready,because now it sees that its predecessor is
complete. So, Project stops the execution of the 250
priority group and jumps to the 300 priority group.
What i want is that, once a group has started, it should
run to completion before it moves to another group, even
if a higher priority group is ready for execution.
Can such a requirement be accomplished in Project ?
Hope i have made things clear.
Please let me know.
Thanks in advance,
Dilip.

How to show Holidays on a Gnatt chart??

(Note: i'm only using one tier - it's a bit odd that the
one tier is the middle tier??)

In Tools-->Change Working Time I've set the 2-week shut

But when i then view the project - nothing!
No greyed out 2-weeks in the Gantt chart.

I am aware that MSP 2002 has the option of doing EV (BCWP) against the "Physical % Complete", but I'm not sure if there any additional options that have to be selected in order for it to start calculating. I presume that you have set the "Status Date"?

Sorry to be of absolutely no use to you on this one - but I just can't think of why BCWP would show zero values, when all the other EV data is there.

You might want to have a look at Task Manager 2005 (www.orbisoft.com) too.
It can be 'dumbed down' for the 'average' users by graying out most menu

Hello Rafael,

How did you get here without knowing it's the Office:Mac newsgroup? You for
whom we are having a medal struck for Long Service and Good Conduct -- here
and in microsoft.public.mac.office.word -- for providing so many interesting
questions over the years?

It's your mates in here, Rafael!

You know all this, right? For example using Entourage or newsgroup
applications for quicker and easier access?:
http://word.mvps.org/Mac/AccessNewsgroups.html and
http://word.mvps.org/FindHelp/Posting.htm (if you use Safari you may see a
blank page and have to hit the circular arrow icon -- "Reload the current
page" -- two or more times).

Cheers,

Office File Ownership problem between OSX and XP

This may very well not be an Office issue at all.

In my company we must set our Windows Server (or really any server)

by another. The trick is to make sure that server permissions for the
shared folders are set to not allow anyone to take ownership. Only an
account on the server, such as a local administrator account, should be
set as Owner. No group should ever be set as Owner.

Hope this helps!

Will Office 2004 professional work on intel mac

Posted: 23 Aug 2007 04:28 PM PDT

Yes, I'm running a Pro version here on an Intel Mac.

As Diane says, there are two disks in the package. The VPC and Windows disk
will simply eject if you try to install it :-)

If you install Bootcamp or Parallels on you Intel Mac, you can use the
Windows XP licence that comes with Pro to install Windows. However the
Windows XP installer on the disk will refuse to install outside of VPC. The
easiest way around that is to borrow a normal Windows XP disk from someone
and install using the Windows licence key you own, printed on the back of
your Windows CD :-)

Hope this helps

Office 2004 seen as Classic App??

Posted: 23 Aug 2007 10:40 AM PDT

Hi Thera:

1) Apple is spouting nonsense :-) You can install Microsoft Office an
UNLIMITED number of times on the same computer.

2) If you have the Student and Teacher version, you get three product keys,
which enable you to install an unlimited number of times on each of three
computers.

Each key gives you a licence to install on a single machine, as often as you
need to.

To correct the problem you have, put your CD in the hole and re-install
Office using drag-and-drop.

It sounds as though Apple has done something strange when they replaced the
hard drive. They may have supplied one that had the Office Test Drive
already installed. But I suspect it's just that your old preferences do not
apply to the new OS that's causing the problem.

In which case, simply "Installing" Office will bring it right. If it
doesn't, run the Remove Office tool you will find on the Office CD to remove
all of Office, then install again using drag-and-drop from the CD.

Once you have installed from the CD, you must apply Microsoft Office updates
11.3.5, 11.3.6 and 11.3.7. Do that before you try to run the applications
or you may get (more) problems.

In future, be alert to the fact that if you change OS versions, it is most
unlikely that dragging applications back from another disk will work,
because the preference files created to say where all the various bits of
hardware and software on the computer reside are not valid for the new OS.

Hope this helps

The Microsoft/Mac home page lists the latest converter. The current beta is
Word-only. It will be replaced with a more useful one, but I can't guess
when.

The final versions will not be available until after Office 2008 ships
(probably at nearly the same time as O2008 ships).

That's because the "converters" are actually most of the engine of the new
products (without the user interface) and they're not ready yet :-)

That is nowhere mentioned. I have never found "the purchaser" in any

software and make it a gift to someone who is eligible.

It would also be legally difficult as the eligible person can be under
18 years. That's why it says: "YOU MUST BE A QUALIFIED EDUCATIONAL USER
OR THE PARENT OR LEGAL GUARDIAN OF A QUALIFIED EDUCATIONAL USER WHO IS A
MINOR TO LICENSE THIS SOFTWARE."

Thus, if I buy the student version for my eligible child it is fully in
accordance to the license agreement. I do not have to be a student or

If you have the Student and Teacher Edition, you have three licence keys.

Use a different key on each machine and you will be fine.

You can only run each licence on ONE machine, but you have three licences,

Problems with ClipARt on line

Posted: 16 Aug 2007 07:49 AM PDT

Most clipart from MS is downloaded as a .cil file which doesn't get
processed into the Gallery automatically unless you're still using the
abandoned Internet Explorer 5.0 browser or have your current browser
configured to handle them. Info that may help - depending on browser - is
here:

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/clipart/HP010461351033.aspx

Or you can just follow the instructions here for adding to your Gallery:

Either way, keep in mind that there are some objects glommed into the
over-expanded category of "clipart" that may not be usable on a Mac or may
only function properly in PowerPoint.

Volume Licensing Key available?

Hi,

There's a lot of information about how the volume license program works on
this page:
http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/default.mspx

Either your organization received a disk with a .dmg file on it that is to
be duplicated and distributed within the license agreement, or you were
given a way to download such a .dmg file.

I'd go through the volume license instructions again more carefully. If you
purchased a volume licensed copy it's available to you somehow.

Batch AutoCorrect?

Posted: 15 Aug 2007 12:53 AM PDT

Hi Dave -

From the subject of your post I'm afraid there isn't anything available that
will 'rescan' your doc looking for & activating AutoCorrect entries. They
work on an as-you-type basis only. I imagine it would be almost impossible
to automate a solution because the macro would have to test for every
possible AutoCorrect trigger.

As you proofread the doc, however, you can manually trigger individual
instances if you place the insertion point at the end of the string, press
Spacebar (or whatever), then backspace (delete). Not the perfect fix, but it
saves a lot of retyping:-)

Right-to-Left Text

Don't misread what I wrote :) OS X *does* now support RTL, but it wasn't
reliable until 10.3 [IIRC]. Office had long since been seated in the
marketplace. There are currently a number of Mac programs that include RTL -
it's just that the Office apps aren't among them - RTL must be _written in_,
it can't simply be _tacked on_ after the fact. That was the point of the
second 2 paras of my reply.

As for what O2008 will offer, nobody with any absolute knowledge is at
liberty to say. However, the consensus of those considered to have viable
insights is that RTL will be included and that it will be done properly.

Hi Alan:

You probably did not have EVERY application quit when you did it. Every
member of the Office suite, including the Microsoft Office Entourage Daemon,
must be quit or you can't de-licence it because it has the licence key
(which is an invisible file) locked.

By deleting all the files, you also deleted the key :-)
