Files Not Sorting A-Z

Posted: 04 Aug 2004 06:48 AM PDT

Hi Stefanie,

When you're in a File Open dialog set to detail view you can
click on the title bar above the columns. Click on the 'Name'
column title bar should reverse the sort from what you're seeing.

Please help. My files are listing themselves Z to A
instead of A to Z. For example when I select "file"
then "open" my folders and files are listing themselves Z
to A. It was originally set up correctly but I must have
it a button somewhere along the line that changed
something. This is affecting all my office programs such
as word, excel, powerpoint and access.
Thanks for your help! >>

Office 97 to Office 2000 upgrade but keep Access 97, if so how?

Posted: 04 Aug 2004 01:57 AM PDT

Hi Steve,

Yes, you can install Office 2000 and you can use a custom install
to remove all of Office 97 except Access97 if you choose not to
upgrade Access as well. You may want to start with the tools
and information in the Office 2000 Resource Kit for more information
http://microsoft.com/office/ork/2000

Note that Office 97 uses a different installer/setup program than
Office 2000 and you may run into issues where the installer runs
a lot to 'switch' from Office 97 to Office 2000 being the 'current'
version that is used by the operating system.

<<"Steve P" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com...
Currently we run Office 97 Pro in our organisation but need to upgrade to Office 2000. Unfortunately we have hundreds of Access 97
databases, so my question is:
Can we upgrade from Office 97 to Office 2000, uninstalling all Office 97 components except for Access 97 and installing all Office
2000 components except for Access 2000?

If so how can this be done without firstly removing Office 97 completely, then installing Office 2000 then finally installing Access
97

Many thanks>>

Office 2003 sp1 network install

Posted: 03 Aug 2004 05:24 PM PDT

So, I can not use GP to push out a client install, but must use SMS or some
other additional program to update my clients.
This is really disappointing.

If I had realized this I would have went with an administrative install
instead of the recommended compressed cd image network installation point.

Is there a way to get a compressed cd image of the full Office 2003
professional w/ sp1 so that I could replace my current installation point
and do an uninstall and reinstall via GP?

The origonal software, ie the software you used prior to 2003 is part of yr
licence and as such you have to keep it.
It is not neccessary to install the old software prior to upgrading, as
during the install of yr upgrade 2003 you will get the msg 'cannot find
qualifying product' at this time you insert old cd, and point the 2003
install to it.

how do arithmetic operations with floating point no in shell script

I usually use awk:

calc()
{
n=`awk 'BEGIN {print '"$*"'}'`
}

calc '(123 + 321) * 1.5'
calc 23 \* 12


One can also write shell functions for arithmetic using decimal

fpmul() {
places=

shift=0
qm=

Random guess, as the OP missed to give us info about the distro

Finding a modem with COM/IRQ jumpers

Great stuff, everyone. Thank you!

I am glad to hear about the USR modem, which I may try, and the
external serial modem option. I am especially glad to get the advice
on building my own driver, which I have wanted to try for a while,
now. One of the cooler things I have always admired about the Linux
community is their willingness to write software to fit their
situation. I can't imagine needing to do the same on a Winbox!

I appreciate your help, folks.

Microsoft Word - Metadata/Track Changes Question

Microsoft Word - Metadata/Track Changes Question

Metadata/Track Changes Question

Posted: 07 May 2013 11:53 AM PDT

In Word when using Track Changes, you can hover your courser over a tracked insertion and a bubble pops up that displays who made that change, when they made it, and also repeats the text that is inserted. The goal is to remove some of that metadata but not all of it. I need the inserted text to remain in Track Changes formatting but I need the bubble that displays who made the change and when it was made to be permanently removed. Does anyone know if this is possible?

p.s.- I've used the standard Word tool where you go to [Prepare] and [Inspect] and removed the metadata that way. That removes the what I want to be removed along with the insertion that I want to remain.

How to change two pages into one page via scaling printing??

Dear All，

 

 I edited two pages in word 2007 and i want to print them in one page. I remember that in Word 2003 I can print two pages in one page by adjustiing the scaling of print preview (such as 80% ,the two pages change to on page in the print preview).But now i cannot find this setting in the Word 2007.

Could you please tell me how to do it.Thanks in advance.

Sorting ranges of numbers in a Word Table

Posted: 06 May 2013 12:48 PM PDT

 I know how to sort a Word table by positive real numbers (e.g., 5.1, 6.2 or 9.0), but the sorting I need to do involves ranges of numbers (e.g., 6.2-9.1, which is not intended to be an arithmetical calculation resulting in the number -2.9; what the range actually represents is the bloom period for a plant described in the table, in this case blooming from the second half of June (6.2) through the first half of September (9.1), i.e., Summer).  Can Word tables containing these sorts of range entries be sorted (perhaps if the range were set out differently, e.g., 6.2/9.1 or 6.2...9.1)?  TX

Loss of predefined style formats in word 2003 .dot file when opening in word 2010

Posted: 06 May 2013 09:57 AM PDT

Hi all,

 

I work for a client who has provided a template in 2003 word for completion of a report (they haven't upgraded yet, so can't provide a 2010 template). It has within it predefined styles, i.e. bullet points, reference, footer formatting. My entire office has been upgraded to 2010 which means when I now open the template the styles are all the "quick style"s.  Where are all the styles that have already been set in the document?

 

On opening an older document produced when we had 2003 and trying to save the styles to the quick style tab it informs me that the names already exist, so they are obviously still available, just hidden from view. On trying to paste special the styles over doesn't always work. Feel very much like I am hitting my head off a brick wall with office 2010 when trying to do stuff that was simple in 2003.

 

Thanks in advance for your help,

Sara

My cursor moves around the page on its own, why windows 8

Posted: 06 May 2013 03:14 AM PDT

When working in word my cursor moves around the page on its own with out me touching the blue tooth mouse or the mouse pad on my laptop, even typing this I have had to this point * I have had to undo and retype six times already, why is this so, I have typed for 40 minutes or so this evening without touching the mouse pad and have had to redo so much it is past frustrating.

Is is possible to have 2 Normal.dotm templates operating at the same time, one for personal use, one for company-wide use?

Posted: 05 May 2013 05:40 PM PDT

In past versions of Word it was possible to create a Normal.dot template and rename it (we called ours DP.dot) which contained styles, macros etc. in use company-wide.  We were also able to have available a local Normal.dot that contained our own personal styles/macros etc.

 

This seems to be a little problematic with Word 2013 for renaming a "company-wide" "Normal" template meant we lost some functionality around auto-text conversion to Word 2013.  I've overcome that problem by renaming the DP.dot back to nORMAL.dotm so that (when viewing it from the Macro Editor/Organizer or when saving building blocks etc. it was easy to differentiate between the two Normal templates).

 

That gave me back the functionality I was looking for, but then I find that keyboard shortcut keys assigned to styles saved in the company-wide template (nORMAL.dotm) do not work.  Those shortcut keys will work if you have that template open, but not otherwise.  Also those often used company-wide styles are showing in the Quick Styles Gallery when that nORMAL.dotm template is open, but those styles are not showing in a blank document.  I am assuming this is because the blank document is created from the locally available Normal.dotm rather than the company-wide nORMAL.dotm.

 

How can I make those styles available in the Quick Styles Gallery or make the keyboard shortcuts for those styles work when nORMAL.dotm is just running in the background, rather than being the template behind the open blank document.

 

Maybe I'm going about this all the wrong way.

 

Any help in steering me in the right direction would be appreciated.

Hi Terri,

Try this:

Create your document using Works Word processor.

Next, save the document into My Documents folder by clicking File on the
menu bar then clicking Save As.

In the Save As dialog popup for Save in: My Documents should display, leave

the down arrow and select .rtf (Rich Text Format), click Save.

Close Works Word processor.

Open your mail program, if Outlook Express, click Create Mail, attached the

Ken:
I have done what you suggested and changed to .doc and also to rich format,
but no matter which I use, it changes my original format to something else.
Mine is a one page document and it has now been split in two.

I have gone to my "form" that I use and if I even change this, it transforms
into something else.

It is really imperative thta I get this solved and am certain this must be a
fairly common problem to other Works users.

Thanks again - waiting ror your suggestion!

Microsoft Word - How do I get rid of a margin created by a cover page?

Microsoft Word - How do I get rid of a margin created by a cover page?

How do I get rid of a margin created by a cover page?

Posted: 06 May 2013 09:24 AM PDT

I was editing a long document (300+ pages) in MS Word 2010 and used Insert> Cover Page to add the "Conservative" cover page to the document.

Unfortunately, this seems to have added a blank wide margin on the right-hand side of the entire document (not just the cover page), which has effectively made the available space for text on every page narrower.

Even more unfortunately, I saved the document like this, so now I'm stuck trying to find a way to undo the damage.

But because I ended up changing the cover page after deciding it was too fancy, I can't seem to use the "Remove Current Cover Page" function.

Nothing happens, and that right-hand "ghost margin" does not go away. it gets darker when I move the cursor over it, but I can find no way to delete the bugger.

I would gladly send or upload the file to show what I mean.

 

 

Need help formatting an equation

Posted: 06 May 2013 08:31 AM PDT

Whenever there is text in the same line as an equation, it causes the equation to shrink in size.
See example: on imgur

Notice how the equation in the third line is noticeably smaller. It is really annoying. Is there any way to make the equations to always stay the same default size no matter what's going on around them. It's word 2007 by the way.

Clicking OPEN on Word 2007 shuts down Word

Posted: 05 May 2013 08:48 PM PDT

I have Office Home and Student 2007 and Windows 8.  I can process in Word and save the document. and all other functions except I cannot open a previous file. About half of the time when I click OPEN, Word shuts down and I'm back at my Desktop. Word was working perfectly for the last 6 months.  It has recently started shutting down. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Office Home and Student 2007.

Blocking text

Posted: 05 May 2013 04:53 PM PDT

 A problem is developing in that while I can block the text I loose it as soon as I release the mouse.    Not always but it is happening more and more.

Printing #10 envelopes from "add to document" not possible with my printer. I was able to do this with Word 2003.

Posted: 05 May 2013 11:55 AM PDT

Printing multiple envelopes (with the same return address only) was easy with Office 2003. Now with Office 2010, I can't do this using "Add to document" because I can't put my envelopes in the feeder horizontally.

Is there a solution to this issue?

Thanks, Michael

AutoCorrect not working on "THanks"

Posted: 05 May 2013 10:47 AM PDT

AutoCorrect is working generally in word and outlook, but fails on correcting "THanks"  I've tried a few times to replace the entry in the database but it just underlines it.  I also tried deleting it and hoping the "Fix two first letters capitalized" would help, but no go.  I do this a lot in emails, so would love to get this to work.  Any help would be appreciated.

Bought Office 2008 Beta and now it says it's about to Expire

Posted: 12 Nov 2007 09:56 PM PST

Hi Jim:

Let's be a little realistic, shall we? You can "pay money to some crook for
a beta version of Microsoft software". That's like buying a stolen camera
in a pub. Paying money for something that is stolen in the first place is
not the same as "buying" it.

When you buy something, you get the legal right to use it.

You have paid money for the right to go to jail :-) As Jolly Rodger said:
not to bright :-)

In this case, I advise anyone who has a copy of Office 2008 to get it off
their machine SOON.

It may APPEAR to "activate normally", but I also know that if you allow it
to do so, you WILL regret it :-)

Surely you are winding us up? Surely you do not actually believe that the
largest software company in the world is going to issue beta versions of
(what may be the next release of) its software in such a condition that they
can be safely cracked? Really?

I cannot understand why anyone who sets out to steal from a company that has
a larger security team than many police forces, thinks it's a good idea to
post announcing the fact, to a server owned by that company! Did I miss a
news report? Has the H5N1 Chicken Flu virus finally mutated to a "Darwin
Virus"? (The Darwin Award is given posthumously to the person who finds the
stupidest way to remove themselves from the gene pool each year...)

Cheers

Installation of Office 2004 on OS X 10.5 Leopard

Posted: 12 Nov 2007 01:25 AM PST

Hi Ratliff,

The framework error is a result of not installing the office updates. Did
you attempt to manually install any updates? The way to launch the
autoupdate utility is from the Help menu of any office application.

EndNote X has no known compatibility problems with Word or Leopard. I just
installed Leopard, then Office 2004 and Endnote on a new laptop today.

By any chance do you still have the trial version of office on your
computer? If so, use the Remove Office tool to get rid of it, as the trial
version may be trying to be the default application instead of the actual
version.

-Jim

New Macbook with OS X Leopard won't load Office 2004

Posted: 11 Nov 2007 08:47 PM PST

Was the Office packaging sealed? I have a sneaking suspicion that someone
bought the package, swapped the disks, then returned it for a refund.
Examine the labeling on the disk to verify that it *is* 2004.

Powerpoint presenter tools

Posted: 05 Nov 2007 06:56 PM PST

Hi,

Yes, this is possible.

You would create a visual basic macro (very short) that would activate
presenter tools for you.

Here's a problem with me answering your question - my own time crunch. I
started to work this out and now I am leaving on a trip till next week.

So that you can see how far I got with your answer I'm posting what I have
so far. Essentially, my plan is to programmatically open the powerpoint file
and then programmatically click a Presenter Tools button.

Here's a the beginning of the set of steps you could take. I hope someone
fills in the rest while I am away. Otherwise we will have to pick this up
again on Thanksgiving weekend:

From the VIEW menu choose TOOLBARS then CUSTOMIZE TOOLBARS/MENUS

Click the NEW button and name the new Toolbar (for this example I'll call it
Presenter).

Click the COMMANDS button and then drag the PRESENTER TOOLS icon from the
menu to your new toolbar.

Click the TOOLBARS button (back to where you were a few seconds ago)

Click MENUBAR in the left side then click the RESET button (that restores
the PRESENTER TOOLS command to the menu without removing it from your new
toolbar). Don't worry if the menu disappears or looks screwy at this point.

Click the OK Button

From the VIEW menu choose Visual Basic to see the VB Toolbar

Click the VISUAL BASIC EDITOR button.

From the menu choose INSERT then MODULE

Paste the following into the module:

[VBA code goes here]

-Jim
