Microsoft Word - format hyphens (--) to dash (—) not working

Microsoft Word - format hyphens (--) to dash (—) not working


format hyphens (--) to dash (—) not working

Posted: 29 Mar 2013 07:55 PM PDT

I have Windows Office 2007 running on an HP Pavilion a6500f with Windows 7.  I had to have the motherboard replaced and now when using Word I can't get the format hyphens (--) to dash (—) to work.  Both places under Word Options, AutoCorrect Options (AutoFormat and AutoFormat As You Type)  are checked but it just won't work.  This feature worked just fine before the motherboard crashed.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this as that's a feature I use very frequently and having to remember to go back and use Copy, Paste to get my dash is getting really out of hand.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I installed Office 2013 yesterday. Whenever I try to open a file in Word, I get the message below. What is going on and how do I fix this?

Posted: 29 Mar 2013 03:44 PM PDT

Message is:

 

"Microsoft Word has stopped working.

A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.

Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is avialable."

 

I have not received any notifications.

 

 

"Documents.library-ms" warning message

Posted: 29 Mar 2013 08:08 AM PDT



When I try to open anything in my libraries (documents, pictures etc.) I just get the message: 

"Documents.library-ms" is no longer working.  
This library can be safely deleted from your computer.  
Folders that have been included will not be affected.

Obviously I don't want to delete my libraries if I'm going to lose all my documents.  Can someone please explain how I can resolve this.  Thank you.

Table Troubles

Posted: 27 Mar 2013 10:48 PM PDT

Greetings!

I have a bunch of long docx files that contain many tables.

Some of the content in the cells in these tables are truncated, as follows:

in the
beginning


when it should be

in the beginning

Even though I right click on the particular column of the table and use the "automatically adjust to content" (or whatever it is called in English -- I am using word in another language, though all the files are in English, so that is not the problem), the truncated cells stay the same.

It would be nice to have a macro that would whisk through the file and "correct" all these mangled cells, but a) I don't know how to create such a macro, and b) I can't think of any other way to solve this vexing problem.

I would greatly appreciate it if a kind soul in this forum would lend me a hand.

Macro Does Not Run on Ribbon

Posted: 26 Mar 2013 09:17 AM PDT

OK I hope I list everything correct so you can understand my struggle.  I am working in Word 2010 and have created a ribbton through the custom UI edtiro with the following html code:

 

<

customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2009/07/customui">

<

ribbon startFromScratch="false">

<

tabs>

<

tab id="customCalcTab" label="Calculation Template">

<

group id="customCompany" label="Change Company Name">

<

button id="customUS" label="US" onAction="Calculation.ChangeCompanyName.CompanyNameUS" />

<

button id="customCanada" label="Canada" onAction="Calculation.ChangeCompanyName.CompanyNameCanada" />

</

group>

</

tab>

</

tabs>

</

ribbon>

</

customUI>

 

The two macros change the name of the company in the document depending on whether it is the US company or the Canada company. 

 

The VB code is attached the document (not a template located somewhere else).

  • Project Name:  Calculation
  • Module Name: Change Company Name
  • Macro Names: CompanyNameUS or CompanyNameCanada

I cannot get this to run. 

  • If I run it as shown, I receive "The macro canot be found or has been disabled because of your Macro security settings.:
  • If I run it with just the macro name onAction="CompanyNameUS", I receive "Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment"

The macros are below and run fine if I was to just run the macro on the document from the developers tab:

 

Sub CompanyNameCanada()

    Dim i As Long
    Dim rngStory As Word.Range
   
    i = ActiveDocument.Sections(1).Headers(1).Range.StoryType
   
    'Iterate through all story types in the current document

    For Each rngStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges
    Do
        Select Case rngStory.StoryType
            Case 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
                With rngStory.Find
                    .Text = "NP Inc."
                    .Replacement.Text = "NP Canada Ltd."
                    .Wrap = wdFindContinue
                    .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
                End With
            Case Else
                'Do Nothing
        End Select
        Set rngStory = rngStory.NextStoryRange
    Loop Until rngStory Is Nothing
    Next rngStory
  
End Sub

 

Sub CompanyNameUS()


    Dim i As Long
    Dim rngStory As Word.Range
   
    i = ActiveDocument.Sections(1).Headers(1).Range.StoryType
   
    'Iterate through all story types in the current document

    For Each rngStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges
    Do
        Select Case rngStory.StoryType
            Case 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
                With rngStory.Find
                    .Text = "NP Canada Ltd."
                    .Replacement.Text = "NP Inc."
                    .Wrap = wdFindContinue
                    .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
                End With
            Case Else
                'Do Nothing
        End Select
        Set rngStory = rngStory.NextStoryRange
    Loop Until rngStory Is Nothing
    Next rngStory


End Sub

 

 

Can anyone tell me the proper syntax in the HTML code to call the macro? 

 

Thanks

Find Tables with Over 6 Rows

Posted: 29 Mar 2013 06:30 AM PDT

Greetings!

I need to find tables in my somewhat long MS Word 2010 document that have more than six rows.

Most of the tables are supposed to be only six rows, but by some mistake some of the tables have been combined (usually 12 rows).

So I need to find these combined tables, stop the macro, split the tables, and then resume the macro.

Is this possible?

Need Help with Complex Macro Relating to Tables

Posted: 28 Mar 2013 06:02 PM PDT

Greetings!

I deeply appreciate this forum and its gurus (esp. HansV) for all the help they provide to clueless MS Word users like me.  I hope I am not asking for too much help in this post.

I have a large file that contains many tables, one after another. I need a somewhat complex macro (complex to me, anyway) that can do the following:

A) first of all, every table has six rows (some contain data, others not),
B) every table varies in the number of columns it contains (I believe always less than 10),
C) some columns are completely empty (no data-- they act as separators to keep things neat),
D) some columns have data in the first cell at the head of the table. Below is a copy of one table (though the formatting might be broken, but you will get an idea I hope):

(notice the 1s in the first and third columns)


1

 


1

 

ΤΑΥΤΑ

 

τὰ

 

ὀνόματα

 

τῶν

 

υἱῶν

 

Ἰσραὴλ

 







οὗτος



ὄνομα

Ἰσραήλ








houtos


ho


onoma

huios


Israēl








RD-NPN


DNPN


NNPN


DGPM


NGPM


XP








this


the


name


the


son


Israel








These (are)


the


names


of the


sons


of Israel



or (notice the period -- hard to see -- in the third from the right column. It is an entire column with five empty cells below it)

ἅμα

 

Ἰακὼβ

 

τῷ

 

πατρὶ

 

αὐτῶν

· 

ἕκαστος

 

ἅμα


Ἰακώβ



πατήρ

hama


Iakōb

patēr


autos


hekastos

DDSM

RP-GPM


JNSM


at once, together


Jacob, Iacob


the


father


he, she, it


every, each


together with


Jacob


-


father,2


their1


each one



So the macro should try to do the following:

1) starting at the top of the file,
2) search for the next table,
3) turn each column into a row (tricky because some of the columns are either empty or have a number or perhaps punctuation / footnote mark or the like in the first row), and
4) proceed down the file to the end.

One problem: some of the columns contain footnotes (the footnote mark is always, I believe, in the first row). Nonetheless, it would be nice if these footnotes were retained, perhaps converted into endnotes.

The results should look something like this (I had to paste it in as a table, but the columns should be separated with tabs, provided nothing in the cells is truncated and everything is formatted well):

Another Table Trouble

Posted: 28 Mar 2013 06:13 AM PDT

Greetings again!

I would like to thank all the MS Word gurus on this forum (esp. macropod) for all their advice and help.

I have a large MS Word 2010 file that contains many tables. I tried doing what needs to be done one by one, table by table, but it will takes weeks to perform the task.

I need macro help that can do the following:

1) start from the position of the cursor,
2) search for and find the next table,
3) select the entire table (all the tables consist of six rows, if that's relevant), and
4) automatically adjust to the window (it's the little icon that has a percentage sign at the top -- looks something like this |-- % --| ).

I would deeply appreciate your help in this matter.

I am not able to save a new document.

Posted: 27 Mar 2013 01:43 PM PDT

I click on save as and I get no save dialogue at all. I have to restart my computer several times or use Fix-it before Word will save a new document.  Updating an old document works fine.

The only thing I can think of is that you must be using Microsoft

should be prepared to tolerate some minor inconvenience with the Microsoft
products. Microsoft is working hard to rectify this as soon as humanly and profitably possible
but with attacks from Hackers and Law courts all over the world it has
to set priorities of which giving you a good product isn't.

Thanks Ken. That was very helpful. do you know or does anyone know how to
redirect the folder or a way to use regedit to change the location.

As I recall on a WindowsXP system mswkscal.wcd is located...
C:\ Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Works.

Also think Application Data is a hidden folder on WindowsXP. Assure "Show
hidden files and folders" is ticked on the View tab via Folder Options.

Folder Options can be found via Control Panel or open My Documents, click
Tools on the menu bar, click Folder Options.

File Storage Location

Hi Steve,

I now understand, from your subsequent posts, that you are not
attempting to redirect the file saving operation.

The folder location is likely 'hard-wired' into the application software
and I know of no way to redirect using regedit.

HTH,
