kernel panic on boot

Posted: 03 Jul 2004 05:34 PM PDT

Thanks for the response. This is a first time install on this machine,
and I haven't had luck yet. I am doing a sort of LinuxFromScratch
install. I have all needed for a boot compiled in.... even ran a diff
to a known working .config to see if i was overlooking something. I
have tried both XFS and EXT3, and on both the messages that show:

XFS: bad magic number
XFS: SB validate failed
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on hda2

Even when the / partition is EXT3, these XFS errors show.

Does Mac Office '08 work with iPages?

Posted: 21 Oct 2007 09:33 AM PDT

Your Word, Excel, and Powerpoint files will open fine in both MacOffice
2004/2008 and iWork (Pages is just the word-processing part of iWork).
There might be some adjustments if you used certain complex features,
and people have had problems with cross-platform graphics. But both Mac
and Win Office used the same basic file format from WinOffice 97 to
MacOffice 2004.

But you'll want to keep Office 2000 in Parallels for Publisher anyhow
(or to export the Publisher files to Word), so that will always be a
backup if necessary.

Probably better to use Pages to replace Publisher than Word, by the way.

MacOffice will *not* open your Pages/Numbers/Keynote files, but you can
use Pages/Numbers/Keynote to Export into the MacOffice format.

Does Entourage in Mac Office '08 work with Mac Mail or is it a separate mail program?

Posted: 21 Oct 2007 09:26 AM PDT

I'm still not totally following--but you know what? Doesn't really
matter. Download the Office 2004 Test Drive, install it, and try using
it. That's really the only way to tell if the proposed workflow will
work for you. Whether you do certain work in Windows or Mac or
integrate it all together is mostly just a matter of personal preference
based on which programs you would rather be using for a particular
task. Only using the programs will let you figure out if there are any
things that will force you to use one or the other.

Just be sure to REMOVE the Test Drive before installing a full version
of Mac Office.

I've messed up the superscript

Posted: 24 Apr 2013 05:39 AM PDT

SOMEHOW, and I'm thinking "Only you, man, only YOU!" I've managed to reprogram or disable - just completely mess up the superscript command for Microsoft Office 2003 (Teachers and Students Edition).  Big time.  I have uninstalled the program and re-installed it, completely, and it still won't work.  That is, when I highlight a number that I want to SUPERSCRIPT, and click on the SUPERSCRIPT button, nothing happens.  At all.  When I go to FORMAT, and select SUPERSCRIPT, it works.  But . . . that is SUCH a pain!  I work a lot with the Bible, and I like the verse number to be superscripted.   Does anyone have a clue as to how to RE-SET the SUPERSCRIPT feature?

Office Starter Pack 2010

Posted: 23 Apr 2013 11:44 PM PDT

I have recently purchased a new HP Pavillion dv6 with Windows 7 installed whilst working in Malaysia.

I did not realise until I returned home it did not come with Office installed - only had the Office Starter 2010.

I can open some pdf's I have stored on my laptop with Adobe Reader but others I cannot (never had a problem opening them before I bought a new computer).

I get a message that I have to install or re-install a FileOpen plug-in. No matter how many times I install I still get the same message.

Other times (when I think I have sucessfully installed the plug-in) it comes up with "Drawing Error" or "Cannot find or create the font Arial-BoldMT."

So I check and then find Arial-BoldMT is not installed on my computer.

That was where I started thinking maybe the font didn't come with the Starter Pack and I would need to purchase Office.

So, I go on-line and that is where the second part of my problem arises.

 

I tried to purchase Office on the internet from Microsoft and because I am not located in the same country as my billing address (working in Malaysia / billing address in Thailand) it will not accept my credit card.

I have some very important pdf's I need to open and I am not due to return to Thailand for 1 month.

 

Can anyone assist with help on my first problem and advice on my second problem.

Proofing errors have been found

Posted: 23 Apr 2013 06:55 PM PDT

After completing a large edit with nearly 5,000 errors, I see that Word 2010 shows an icon at the foot of the screen showing a red cross through a book. Hovering over this produces the message 'Proofing errors have been found. Click to correct'. As I find that F7 gives many silly suggestions (some of them illiterate) I do not accept them all, so no way am I going to let Word just 'fix' the errors it perceives authomatically. How can I see what these supposed 'proofing errors' are indivdually?

Do Changes to the Last Paragraph Mark Risk Corruption?

Posted: 23 Apr 2013 04:29 PM PDT

I have been told that in earlier versions of Word that selecting the last paragraph mark and changing things such as font size risks corrupting the document. Is this true in Word 2010? Or was it ever true?

 

Our situation is that we often end a document with a table, and a blank last page is created if the last paragraph mark (that follows the table) will not fit on the same page with the last table. This can usually be fixed by selecting the last paragaph mark, setting the space before and space after to zero, and/or setting the font size to 1. Is this a safe practice, or can we expect to see corrupted documents popping up soon?

How do I keep my page numbers consecutive when using page breaks in word?

Posted: 23 Apr 2013 02:01 PM PDT

I have a document with multiple section breaks and over 100 pages.  However, this has been reduced down from 222 pages, which used to include even more section breaks.

I'm now trying to include page numbers on every single page.  Some of the sections are "linked" to previous sections, while others are not.   What I've found when these that aren't linked are linked to the page numbers, I'm getting weird numbers popping up.  For example, when linking section 3 to the first 2 sections, my page numbers went from 4 to 12.  

I really have no idea how to fix this, but don't want to manually input that many pages into my document.  Please let me know if there is an easier way!

I have read lots of posts about mail merge include image and am experiencing similar problems

Posted: 23 Apr 2013 12:48 PM PDT

The suggested method of inserting the {INCLUDEPICTURE} Merge tag on the MS Help site did not work.  They asked me to insert a linked image and then press alt + f9.  This did not alter my picture to display code.

Instead I inserted the following manually, using ctrl+f9

The later part appeared to work correctly, however it does not display a picture only the correct string.  Please advice if you see a syntax error or have some advice for me as how to make the insert linked image method work a little better.

I'm using office 2010 on windows 7

Input

{ INCLUDEPICTURE "C:\\Users\\Craig\\Documents\\Google Drive craig,chamberlain11\\Google Drive\\Craig & Peter\\Catalogued Work\\{MERGEFIELD "uri"} " }


Output

{ INCLUDEPICTURE "C:\\Users\\Craig\\Documents\\Google Drive craig,chamberlain11\\Google Drive\\Craig & Peter\\Catalogued Work\\a-04.jpg" }

error! bookmark not defined for cross-references

Posted: 22 Apr 2013 03:25 PM PDT

I moved the Heading 2's in my document so that they were in alphabetical order.  During this process, a lot of the cross-references changed to Error! Bookmark not Defined. 

1.  Is there a way that I can, in one step, fix all broken cross-references to a given section?
2. How can I do such moving in the future without breaking cross-reference?
3. How can I do a "Find all unresolved cross-references"? (this is how it was done in FrameMaker, does word have a similar capability?)

Microsoft Word - Inserting Page Number in Footer

Microsoft Word - Inserting Page Number in Footer


Inserting Page Number in Footer

Posted: 23 Apr 2013 10:38 AM PDT

Ok - this used to easy but Microsoft has now made it difficult.

I want to insert page numbers in the footer.  I like the "Page 1 of 3" page numbering. 

In the good ole days of earlier versions, you just started typing "Page 1 of" and word would complete the page numbering. 

In Word 2010 is doesn't work anymore. 

OK - so now I go into "Insert" then "Header & Footer" then "Page Number".  I scroll down and there I find my favorite "Page 1 of 3" page numbering.  Success Right?  No.  When I insert the page numbering all of the rest of the footer text disappears!  Cute huh?  Who dreamed that up?

Ok - so now I have a solution.   I insert the Page number in the footer (which causes the text in the footer to disappear).  I then copy the Page number, then click on "Go Back" which reinserts the deleted text.  I then past the page number back into the footer. 

I can't believe Microsoft would have created such an inefficient method of inserting page numbers.  There must be an easier way.

How do I insert page numbers into the Footer without deleting the text?

pop up window to register a word doc on own PC

Posted: 23 Apr 2013 01:59 AM PDT

Every time I open any and every word doc a window pops up to say 'This document could not be registered. It will not be possible to create links from this document to other documents'. It's really annoying - I have to click them closed and then I can continue OK. This has begun since I used msconfig to tidy up services and other stuff to ensure quick start-up. I've done that before with no probs and I didn't tinker with the registry or office suite.

I think you can  type in one doc and it will simultaneously appear in another but that's a feature i never use.

Mystified I am!

create .pdf file in 2010 Office

Posted: 22 Apr 2013 06:28 PM PDT

I am trying to create a .pdf file for a Word 2010 .docx document.  When I SAVE AS from the .docx, it saves as a .pdf, but then I can't open the .pdf unless I have Adobe software.  In fact, I DO have Adobe Acrobat X Standard (which I purchased within the last couple of years).  But when I try to open the .pdf file I "SAVE AS"ed, I get an Adobe window that basically says my serial number from Adobe Acrobat X Standard is valid, but I need to purchase "Adobe Acrobat 7 Standard Windows" in order to open the .pdf file I created.

 

I don't understand what Adobe is doing except possibly a cash grab, but I thought there was a way to just save a Word 2010 document as a .pdf and have it open.

 

I'm very confused.  I'm really hoping someone can help me out.

 

Thanks.

When printing on my MacBook, a printer dialogue box opens up, I click on the "X" and poof!  The print job stops - Easy!

When printing from my PC, there is no dialogue box and I can't find anyplace else to kill the job, either from within Work, or outside work.

Where do we change the autocorrect Replace as you type settings in Word 2010?

Posted: 22 Apr 2013 11:19 AM PDT

We have a macro in Wordd 2002 that replaces all smart quotes with straight quotes to prep Word documents so they convert correctly when we create our mainframe files. We need to find the screen in Word 2010 where we change the "Replace as you type" options if there is such a thing.  We will be running Word 2010 on either an XP or Windows 7 pc.  In our version of Word these settings are on the Autocorrect - Replace as you type tab. For example, we uncheck "Straight quotes" with "smart quotes" because the smart quotes don't convert properly.

 

Thanks for the help!!

A question about Sections (Word 2010)

Posted: 22 Apr 2013 10:52 AM PDT

 My document has three levels of organization, of which the top two are of concern here. I want the top level, 1, to have endnotes numbered in one continuous sequence, to simplify finding the right endnote. Each level 1 part has several level 2 parts within it. Each level 2 part should have a separate page header so the reader will know where he/she is down to level 2. To accommodate the first requirement, I give each level 1 its own Word Section. To accommodate the second requirement, each level 2 part must have its own Word Section. It seems that these needs are incompatible. Is there any way around this?

I have thought of modifying the endnotes to look like this: (D is the level 1 part and 3 is the level 2 part within D.)
D3, 27 Smith, Joe. Why We Love Dogs, p. 66. The 27 is what the endnote logic put in and the D3 is put in manually for each endnote in part D3.

This would not be difficult with macros but maybe there is a better way.

Hi Deluth,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :-)

Reading between you lines, I get the impression that you are typing in the
dates for your tasks. Doing this will create constraints that are causing
the problems you see. Try View/Table: Entry/More Tables.../ and select
Constraint Dates. Reset all the Constraints to As Soon As Possible to
remove the Constraints (Change the top one and Fill Down). Project is
designed to work by scheduling from the Project Start Date (set in
Project/Project Information). So, for each task, enter the Duration and
then the Precedence logic links. Project will then calculate the Start and
Finish Dates for you.

FAQs, companion products and other useful Project information can be seen at
this web address: <http://www.mvps.org/project/>

Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on :-))

calculate everything in the middle and then the end date to the last task.
However, if I set the end date to the last task, I would also like the same
calculation to occur for all the middle tasks back to the first task. I
tried doing this, but could not because the middle tasks can not be both a
predecessor to the same task that it depends on. Is there anyway I can
accomplish this? Thanks for the help.


How to prevent splits

Posted: 05 Jul 2004 04:48 PM PDT


Deluth,
Take a look at Tools/Options/Schedule tab. There is an option in the
lower portion of the schedule options window for "split in-progress
tasks". The default is a check for this option. Depending on which
version of Project you have, select the help topic to get an explanation
of what "split in-progress tasks" means. I think you will find that some
of your tasks are being split because a successor task is being
performed ahead of its predecessor (based on one of your other posts).

Hope this helps.

Setting Start and Finish Constraints

Posted: 05 Jul 2004 01:45 PM PDT


Jim,
It sounds like you may be talking about what is called a "hammock task".
A hammock task has its Start date constrained to start simultaneously
with one or more other tasks and its Finish date tied to finish
simultaneously with one or more other tasks, but not necessarily the
same tasks that drive the Start date. For information on hammock tasks
and how to set them up, go to the MVP website at:
http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm
and look at FAQ 19 - Hammock Tasks

Hope this helps.

Custom Field

Posted: 05 Jul 2004 07:02 AM PDT

Hi again,

Are you in a version 2000 or later? Because it is not possible in 98!
In 2000 or later look for customized fields
Tools, customize, fields, Formula, look up the help

May I also recommend the newsgroup

microsoft.public.fr.project

Cela va bien vous faciliter la vie car on parle le plus souvent de la
version en Français.
Bien à toi,

upgrade to 03 from 98

Posted: 02 Jul 2004 01:42 PM PDT

I guess the better question is:

Project 98 is installed on another computer. However, the
computer we want to upgrade to does not have project 98.
We have lost the original cd-rom.

How can we upgrade to 2003? Do we need to get a
replacement cd and if so, how?

thanks

Contact Microsoft Support - they are the only ones who can help.
Alternatively, buy a copy from an auction house like eBay.

Hi folks,
I am a Canadian speaking and writing 4 languages and upon trying to install a german language pack I realised that parts of it got called "hun-spell".
I wonder who the idiot was who came up with "hun-spell" for the german language pack in the first place. I guess its the same type of narrow minded jackass who came up with "freedom-fries".
Really guys, this is one blatant and frightening piece of ignorance that does not fit a opensource project like openoffice. Until corrected to something like "ger-spell" I shall refuse to use open office nor will I recommend it!
Regards
Jaques

Hallo Leute, die IdiotIN, die die deutsche Spracherfassung von openoffice "hun-spell" genannt hat ist wahrscheinlich der gleichen Spezies von US-Ami zuzuordnen, die French-Fries in Freedom-Fries umbennen wollte. Bis der Titel fuer die deutsche Sprachversion neu- und umbenannt ist, werde ich openoffice nicht benutzen und auch nicht empfehlen.
Gruss
Jaques
