Posted: 09 May 2013 01:06 PM PDT I am making edits using 2013 Word in a document created in Word 2010 with several authors and editors. In TrackChanges, I cannot display my edits in color without "show full markup", which brings up all the previous authors' edits. In "simple markup" my edits show only black. I have tried changing all the colors in the "advanced options" box, which is maddeningly hidden. I suspect this is a glitch between old and new Word users. I was reduced to highlighting my changes. |
"in line with text" picture, fails in word 2010 Posted: 09 May 2013 11:07 AM PDT I am using Word 2010. I have copied a picture from another document and pasted it in the one I am working on (or I have tried inserting a png, or a jpg in my current document). I can only see the bottom of the picture. The rest of it seems to be slipped up under the text above it. I have added a bottom shadow to the object, and now that's all I can see, but at least I know where the object is now. If I click on the picture, I can see the outline of the object, again, behind the text above where I have pasted/inserted the picture. When I click on the picture, I see round handles in the corners and a square handle in the middle of each side. When I check the Picture > Format > Position, nothing is highlighted. I click on "in line with text" and the dialog closes, but the method doesn't seem to do anything. When I check the Picture > Format > Wrap Text box, it is already set to "in line with text". If I change it to anything else, the image appears. But I would prefer to use the "in line" setting. When the picture is selected, the options for bring forward and send backward are gray. How do I get my picture to use the "in line with text" setting? |
Tabbing changes when restarting numbered list Posted: 09 May 2013 04:52 AM PDT I have set-up a style with a numbered list. The default tab sizes are way too big for what I need, so I changed them. Now if I restart the numbering for a new list, it messes up the tabbing, but only for the restarted number, all the subsequent numbers remain the same. If I click the style again to apply the correct formatting it switches the number back to the next number from the previous sequence. The issue is on the line wrap is tabbed more than on other entries. It took ages to get all the tabs and indents to do what I want, very frustrating but doable, until this little quirk! My style has: Paragraph: Left 0.5cm Hanging 0.75 cm Tabs 1.25cm Looking in the style description there is also: Left aligned at 0.5 cm Indent at 1.5 cm It looks like these are the issue, but I can't see where I can edit these additional values for left align and indent? I think changing the indent from 1.5 to 1.25 would solve the problem, but where is that value hiding? |
Word 2007 - macro to insert an image and specify its size, position and text wrapping Posted: 08 May 2013 10:09 PM PDT Hi there, I've been looking for a way to create a macro that allows the user the following: - open the "Insert Picture" browser to let them select an image - insert the image with the following attributes: - Text wrapping: in front of text - Picture size: width = 21.1cm, height = 8.5cm, Lock Aspect ratio = false - Position: Horizontal = Absolute Position 0 cm to the right of Page, Vertical = Absolute Position 6.5 cm below Page I have a feeling that it shouldn't be too difficult but my Visual Basic knowledge doesn't go far beyond the macro recorder which doesn't allow me to record any of the steps/settings above. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Dennis |

Posted: 08 May 2013 03:00 PM PDT iI have a list of over 100 names in a word document in the exact same format. I am trying to copy them into a word table and one group of names will go in correctly and then the next will only show the last name and not the " , First name" |
merge multiple documents into one master document Posted: 08 May 2013 02:31 PM PDT I'm having trouble finding info about this; everything I've seen is either three years old and doesn't pertain to Word 2007 or says it can't be done. I want to know if it's possible to have a document (Letter A) that, when I merge it with a list of names, also pulls text from another document (Letter B). The problem is that I want to be able to edit Letter B and have Letter A just magically know I edited B without having to open Letter A and update the field. Here's a simplified example (my final document will include more inserted files but if I can figure out one, I know I can get the rest to work): I have 30 different letters that I merge with an Excel file and send to clients. They're all signed by the same person. That person quits and I have to update every letter (Letter A) with the new person's name. Is it possible to use InsertText or something similar to insert Letter B (which would contain the signature)? And if I edit Letter B in the future, will Letter A know it? Thanks, -a |
Posted: 08 May 2013 09:51 AM PDT Why is the spacing before a paragraph on a new page affected by the spacing after the last paragraph on the previous page? I have my style "Heading1" set to have a page break before it, and I also have it set to have 78pt spacing before it. When I alter the style of the last paragraph on the previous page, e.g. from "Text" (set to have 12pt spacing after paragraph) to Table (set to have 0pt spacing after paragraph) the spacing before the Heading1 paragraph changes! Has anyone noticed this? Can I stop it happening? [Edited to correct product version] |
Posted: 08 May 2013 02:34 AM PDT In MS Word, how do I adjust spacing between bullets and text in all cells within a table? Even though I highlight the entire table before sliding the marker in the overhead ruler to adjust spacing, when I move from one cell to the next, I have to reset the spacing. |
Unable to enter data in word form fields longer than 255 Posted: 07 May 2013 10:24 AM PDT I am attempting to use a legacy text form and am trying to programmatically add data from a database query to the form field. I'm only having issues with fields where the resulting text string is longer than 255 characters. Can I get around this at all?
Thanks, Barb Reinhardt |
Bookmarking within a document - Creating an active Table of Contents Posted: 06 May 2013 01:52 AM PDT I am almost finished with building my book for Amazon Kindle. An active Table of Contents is required to be able to link directly to the beginning of a chapter. I have Word Starter 2010, which does not have the TOC feature. In the "Building Your Book for Kindle" guidelines, it mentions that manual bookmarking would have to be done for people using Macs. I'm thinking that maybe that's what I'll have to do since I have no TOC feature in Word Starter, unless there is a way to hyperlink within the document. How do I create an active TOC in Word Starter 2010? I'm using a Windows 7- 64 bit laptop computer.
Thank you in advance, Jacquelyn Roberts |
