Microsoft Word - I Cannot open Word documents or start Fix it

I Cannot open Word documents or start Fix it

Posted: 18 May 2013 01:41 AM PDT

Good day,
I can't open any word document, any other Office program, or open any fix it solution. I receive the following error message: "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0150004)". "There was a problem sending the command to the program"

I have tried to scan for Malware with Avast free edition and Malwarebytes, but the scans turn out clean.

PDF files also cannot open with Adobe reader.

I have run Windows Update, but the problem still exists. If I try to Uninstall Word, to try and re-install the application, an error message tells me that a required Dll. is missing.

Please help!
Thanks 



Trouble with Open Office (.odt) documents after installing MS Office

Posted: 17 May 2013 06:21 PM PDT

Hello,

I just purchased Microsoft Office 365 Home Premium version on a trial basis. Prior to this I did not have MS Word on my computer but used Open Office to create documents.
Now when I try to open the documents previously created using Open Office (saved as .odt files), each time MS Word opens them. 

How can I open these documents in the original Open Office format? Any help would be appreciated. I do not want MS Word to open all of my documents. Do I have to remove this Microsoft Office program from my computer? Is there a simpler method? When I open documents, I do not get an option to choose which format I want to open a document in.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions. 

Undoing "update links on save" for hyperlinks

Posted: 17 May 2013 05:02 PM PDT

I have Word documents with a large number of relative hyperlinks. After installing the latest version of Office I found that the relative links had been converted to absolute links--I now know that this can be prevented by unchecking the "update links on save" box in "Word Options".

 

I would like to know how to easily revert the updated hyperlinks back to relative hyperlinks--I know how to do this manually for each individual link but wonder if there is an option to change all the links back to relative hyperlinks?

 

Thanks, Hitesh Patel

To make the Home Screen stay in Microsoft Word 2013

Posted: 17 May 2013 01:25 PM PDT

Lately I noticed when I open Word only the menu bar is visible when I click the Home button the Home screen appears and then when I start typing the Home Screen vanishes. Please let me know how I can make the Home screen to stay always when I am working on a document.    

Word's ellipses (...) are too compressed

Posted: 17 May 2013 12:50 PM PDT

The default Word (2010) ellipsis looks like this: ...

Most publications have spaces between the periods, like this: . . .

I can create my own symbol easily enough, but then the ellipsis potentially breaks in its middle if it's at the end of a line (so one or two of the periods stat on the previous line). In other words, the ellipsis won't stick together, as the default symbol (...) does (and as ellipses should).

Any ideas?

can Word 2003 accept only "added" text from tracked changes?

Posted: 17 May 2013 12:25 PM PDT

I edited a number of documents with Track Changes on. I completely understand accepting all, none, or individual changes. What I want to do is accept all but only "added" text from those tracked changes. I want to leave my deletions alone and intact.  Can this be done? Anybody have a macro they would share to do this?

I cannot download documents, Office 2013, Windows 8

Posted: 16 May 2013 03:36 PM PDT

Hello,

When I try to download a Word, Excel or Powerpoint document from my Gmail, Facebook or Black Board I get an error message that says:

"We're sorry, but Word has run into an error that is preventing it from working correctly. Word will need to be closed as a result.
Would you like us to repair now?"

I've tried both repair options and neither has changed anything. I was able to download documents without problem until about two weeks ago. I haven't changed anything with Office; I haven't done anything with it but some projects since I've downloaded the product. 
Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Cory

Windows 365Home Premium download has morphed out of control. HELP

Posted: 15 May 2013 09:16 PM PDT

Just downloaded Word 365 Home Premium and it has taken over my entire computer. There are over 18+ Windows cells requiring "answers" that show up even before I can see the desktop on logging in.  When I cancel them or downsize them, they keep multiplying. Word has taken over my desktop and applications for games like Zuma, Mahjong Deluxe, Solitaire. Some icons have been "replaced" by Word icons with name of program underneath. Others have original icon, but on trying to access them, they just freeze up.  It has also "eaten" my Avast! anti-virus protection. This is no fun.

 

 This is a nightmare!!!!!!

Search and Replace Macro

Posted: 16 May 2013 11:53 PM PDT

Greetings!

I need to delete (carefully) certain bold numbers from a MS WORD 2010 document, as in the following examples:

Before the macro is run:

Ge 1:6 6 And God ...

The Ge 1:6 is in bold, following by a blank space, then the second 6 is raised font also bold, then this followed by another blank space,

So, after the macro is run the result should be:

Gen 1:6 And God ...

Thus, the raised font second 6 and the following blank space have been removed. Another example:

Before:

Nu 22:33 33 And having ...

After:

Nu 22:33 And having ...

Thus, the raised font second 33 and the following blank space have been removed.

Just to be on the safe side, note that the books, chapters and verses (Ex 22:3 3) come at the head of each sentence, and the raised bold numbers that must be deleted come right after that.

I would deeply appreciate your help.

Moving Word 2003 'AutoText' to Word 2011

Posted: 16 May 2013 11:10 PM PDT

Moving AutoText from Word 2003 to Word 2010?  Here's how:
=========================================

1.  Find and save a copy of the old Word 2003 'Normal.Dot' from its location:
     Probably = C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates

 

2.   Copy the Word 2003 'normal.dot' to the new Word 2010 location:
     probably = C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Document Building Blocks\1033

 

3.   Once transferred click on the old 'Normal.Dot' template to open it and trigger a file conversion, then save the resulting template as with a new 

      name (see suggestion in step #5)  at:
     probably = C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Document Building Blocks\1033

 

4.   The new entry name might be 'Normal-new.Dotx' (<-- be sure to select the new template extension)

 

5.   Rename the Word 2010 original 'Normal.Dotx' to something like 'Normal-Orig.Dotx'


6.   Rename the template just saved above as 'Normal-new.Dotx' to 'Normal.Dotx'. 
      This makes the just transferred and converted file the starting file that Word uses every time you open it.


Restart Word and the transferred AutoText is now present...
==========================================================

I found references on the Internet and here in this forum that helped me figure it out, but nothing quite this step-by-step.  I hope others will find it useful.

Navigation Pane and Master Documents

Posted: 16 May 2013 11:15 AM PDT

I seem to recall that in earlier versions of Word the navigation pane--I think it was previously called the document map--and master documents were both considered fabulous ways to corrupt a Word document.  I'm wondering if that is still true in Word 2010 and 2013.

 

Thanks in advance for any information that you can offer.

labels wont print correctly

Posted: 16 May 2013 09:09 AM PDT

I am trying to print a full page of labels number in Avery list C2160 the details of the label are all correct and the measurements are correct but the printout is way out.  I have selected the correct paper size A4 and all the borders are correct, but the printer prints it as though there were no borders and not one of the addresses is on a label in full, I have never had this problem with previous versions of word but 2010 seems to be totally out of sync with everything.  If anyone can help me before I throw the program or printer out I would be very grateful.

Microsoft Word NOT working

Posted: 16 May 2013 03:55 AM PDT

I have just bought a HP computer that is only about 5 weeks old.I launch Microsoft Word (Office 2013) and it stops working and fades to white and then I cannot open any documents at all.

 

I try the use Zip and despite me having a free zip tool it is ""elbowed "" out of the way and a WIN ZIP beggar ware sign appears.

 

I am finding that the Metro Apps are shocking and very slow and I cannot understand why a major company would invent something that is basically so confusing to use that you simply cannot use it.

 

I tried to send an email earlier on and Office 2013 just would NOT let me do it.

 

I am experiencing more BUGS than a pest exterminator including messages that  My antivirus and Firewall are NOT switched on and yet I am running a NORTON trial that says ""everything's cool""

 

All our Major Hospitals are still running Windows XP and that encompasses millions of peoples medical records and they are having No trouble ,yet I cannot even open a simple message that has an attachment, sent by a Christian school in regards to School Fees.

 

I understand that Microsoft made XP Too good but I paid $650 Aus for it. This Windows 8 is absolutely JUNK.

All I do is have Misfire after Misfire and it wouldn't even let me do SYSTEM RESTORE. Microsoft seem to want people to buy their software, Yet they just cannot make a system that works. XP excepted.

Hi,

you can defenitly make your bootloader load both OSes (lilo/grub). If you
don't want to change your bootsector, do the following with lilo:
1. Make lilo write the boot sector in a file
boot=/home/username/bootsec.lin
2. start MS
3. copy bootsec.lin to c: (on a fat parition, you can do this from Linux,
using NTFS->copy the bootsec.lin to a floppy and use MS)
4. edit boot.ini:
add->c:\bootsec.lin="LILO" to the bottom line
5. done. When you boot the next time, your ntloader will give you the option
to start lilo. To get rid of the changes, just delete the last line you
added in boot.ini on your MS system.

Don't worry about such things. If there were a security flaw in a

This is only going to be open on localhost, where you do need it, and
even if it were open to the world, so what? Nobody has your root
password, so they can't use it, and if they did have, they could get in
via ssh instead (hic: if root login not disabled).
 

This doesn't route. And of course will be protected by tcp_wrappers,
where presumably you have lited what you want to be able to access it.
 

Auth? What? Oh, identd! You need that. Otherwise people out there can't
check that you are who you say you are. Well - you could disable it and
then you act like a ms-win box, and whowould want to do that!
 

You definitely don't want this anywhere on your system!
 

This should be closed to all but local hosts. See your printer setup.
 

These are probably local halves of some connection - but take a look at
what they are. Anyway, you can't tell anything by looking from
localhost.
 

Fine. Ditto, I presume.

Document and Issues management 2002

This is a feature of using Project Server and Microsoft SharePoint --
packaged as one environment called Microsoft Enterprise Project
Management. I happen to think this way of handling project documents
and issues is quite good...powerful because of its simplicity and
enabling project teams to move beyond what I have called "silo project
management with paper and email".

A large amount of material about this product available on Microsoft's
web site. You use Microsoft Project Professional to connect the tool you
are familiar with to this "enterprise" environment.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.

The Enterprise Global is a feature of Microsoft Project Server 2002 and
2003. The Enterprise Global is the "library" of your organization's
enterprise custom objects, such as custom Fields, Views, Tables, Filters,
Groups, Calendars, and the like. The Enterprise Global is also used to set
your organization's default currency for tracking project costs.

Each time a user logs into Microsoft Project Server through Microsoft
Project Professional, the system loads the user's personal Global.mpt file
and the Enterprise Global file, and then merges the two files into a single
Global file in the background. This gives the user access to his/her own
personal objects found in the Global.mpt and the organization's custom
enterprise objects found in the Enterprise Global file. When there is a
conflict between personal objects and enterprise objects that have the same
name, the enterprise objects always "win" and replace the local objects.

To access the Enterprise Global, complete the following steps:

1. Launch Microsoft Project Professional and log into Project Server with
administrator permissions
2. Click Tools - Enterprise Options - Open Enterprise Global
3. To customize enterprise fields and outline codes, click Tools -
Customize - Enterprise Fields
4. To customize the default currency, click Tools - Options - View and set
the Symbol value

Hope this helps.

Non critical resource is holding up my progress

Posted: 15 Jul 2004 04:51 PM PDT

Amplifying a little on Jack's comment, generally speaking you should break
the tasks down to a level of granularity the reflects a 1 resource to 1 task
correspondence, "resource" here meaning what I think of as a package of
skills. That could be a single individual or it could be a team of
individuals but in any case the skills must work together in a cohesive
unit. If it is a team, they are working together and really can't work
separately because to do so would break up the skill package. If different
skills are required to design the page graphics versus program it, they
really are two different tasks.

> I seek to record an open presentation Impress office with the format 

It doesn't seem you can do this from a 'save as' within Impress. The
only file formats you can save as are ones that will save it as
another presentation type (eg, powerpoint).

One possible solution would be to craft your presentation in such a
way that all entries appear in the 'outline' tab. This is basically a
text outline of what is in each of the slides. From that view you can
'select all' then copy and paste into a writer document for further
editing.

Your version is quite old. Please update to version 2.2. I doubt that
looking for bugs in an old version is what anybody would like to do. In
case your macro still doesn't work in 2.2 please send your question to
the mailing list openoffice.org.

Ciao,

[discuss] Is this more than just brute force??

If GRS selected a weak password such as "5Y^+@x", then it should have

those who are wondering why it is a weak password.]
 

The web site implied it was optimized for brute force attacks. Assuming
that the password frequency dictionaries are still available, use
several of them, then run thru the user dictionaries, and regular
dictionaries, then start your brute force, try every possible
combination of characters attack.

Hei,
 

sounds like a reasonable option, although it takes away attribute
discoverability. I'd generally love the styles to behave more like CSS
styles.

Did you check if a bug for the whole topic is filed, yet?

How to Read MS Vista .doc files with Office 2004 Mac

Excuse me Mr. Strat but dummies are these people who assume that they
know everything and are ashamed to ask for help. We have a nice
proverb saying that you are not born educated.

aRKay could you please have a look at the info dialog and tell me the
file suffix for the attachment (the one after the .) is it docx? I
suspect it's something else, can you tell me what's it?

Can't Print to PDF in Office for Mac 2004 in Leopard

Posted: 16 Nov 2007 11:32 AM PST

When we print to PDF, the application simply hands the file off to the Apple
OS X printing mechanism: it is not involved from the moment you click
"Print".

So the problem belongs somewhere in your computer's printing subsystem.
Usually, it's the printer driver.

In one of the Microsoft applications, go to the File menu and choose
"Print"... In the top of the dialog box that appears will be the name of
the printer. Take careful note of it.

Now do this again in an application that works. Compare the names
character-for-character. That's usually where the problem lies.

Hope this helps

Printing Macro Error

Posted: 16 May 2013 05:48 AM PDT

I'm using a macro created in Word 2003 but doesn't work in Word 2010.  I get a run time error (5843) that says something is out of range.  This is the line of code where the error occurs.  Application.MailingLabel.CreateNewDocument Name:="8167", Address:="", AutoText:=""  Any help will be appreciated.

Word 2007; won't open a doc sent to me but does open what I created.

Posted: 15 May 2013 09:16 PM PDT

I get the minutes from an organization I belong to and could open them easily through Word.  Now I click on the attachment, open, which opens Word but doesn't open the doc.  I tried opening previous minutes I had saved and opened in the past, but now can't open them.  Any doc I created I can still open.

How can I delete a page with text on it?

Posted: 15 May 2013 04:44 PM PDT

If I have text on a page and I don't like what I see, how can I just delete the whole page? In the Help area I see how to delete everything but the whole page. Is there a delete button that will get rid of the page without storing it? I don't want to click on the X and close the program.

number of pages initially wrong on first page when "different first page" selected

Posted: 15 May 2013 03:09 PM PDT

Hello,

I am seeing a problem with the "number of pages" field in the footer on the first page of a Word document when I have selected "different first page".  If I make an update to the first page of the document, or even double-click on the footer, then the number of pages field is corrected.  If I then save and close the document after the number of pages field is correct and re-open.  It displays incorrectly.

Steps to reproduce:
1.  Create blank new DOCX.
2.  Insert a page break (so now there are two pages in the document).
3.  double-click the footer on the first page and select the "different first page" checkbox on the "header and footer tools" ribbon.
4.  Add "Page X of Y" to the footer on the first page using the "Page Number" button on the "header and footer tools" ribbon.
5.  Add "Page X of Y" to the footer on the second page using the "Page Number" button on the "header and footer tools" ribbon.
At this point the first page says "Page 1 of 2" and the second page says "Page 2 of 2".  This is what you would expect.
6.  Save and close the document.
7.  Re-open the document.
At this point the first page says "Page 1 of 1" and the second page says "Page 2 of 2".  The first page is wrong.
8.  Double click the footer to enter footer mode. (I could also update all fields or several other things)
At this point the first page says "Page 1 of 2" and the second page says "Page 2 of 2".  Now it looks right.

I understand that this is a screen display problem, and it will print correctly if I wanted to print it.  I need it to display correctly when a user first opens the document.  I don't want to add a VBA macro to tell it to update fields after opening.

Thanks,

Jake

ERROR: Word cannot start the converter mswrd632

Posted: 15 May 2013 08:30 AM PDT

I'm a fiction writer who receives partially book-formatted galleys from my editor. This last time, I got the above error. Couldn't get out of the error box, so kept clicking OK and doc opened. Made my edits but the doc does this every time I open. I'm hesitant to implement the below fix as I'm not sure if it can be reversed easily should it causes me more grief; such as, not allowing me to open any of my editors future book formatted docs. This has never happened before with Word 2010 on any past documents with this editor. I've Windows XP. We both use Word 2010. Any advice? I need this resolved.

 

HERE'S WHAT I FOUND IN THE TUTORIALS: (the piece I'm hestitant to try)

 

ERROR: Word cannot start the converter mswrd632

 

I plugged the above error message into your website and found the below. I'm hesitant to do it for fear I can't open my editors docs. Worse yet, that I can't easily put the deletes path back.

 

Look at the "Known Issues" section of this Microsoft article.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/973904

<excerpt>
Let me fix it myself To unregister the mswrd632 converter yourself, edit the registry as follows:

1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.

2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Text Converters\Import\MSWord6.wpc

3. On the Edit menu, click Delete.

4. Click Yes.

5. Exit Registry Editor.

This change will effectively unregister the converter and disable it for third-party applications and for Microsoft Office. Microsoft Office will use its own text converters to open these kinds of files.

</excerpt>

 

 

Hi,

Well , few months back one of our client also experiened some kind of issue. We had sucesfully fixed this using following methods

Remove below registery key.

1. HKEY_LOCAL_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Text Converters\Import\MSWord6.Wpc

Remove following files also.

1. C:\Program files\Common files\Microsoft Shared\TextConv\msword632.cnv

2. C:\Program files\Common files\Microsoft SHared\TextConv\msrd832.cnv

Cheers!!!!!!!!!!!

Best regards,

Table styles in embedded documents

Posted: 15 May 2013 07:20 AM PDT

I am storing an embedded document that contains a table with an applied table style.  When the embedded document opens, the table style is not applied unless its name equals its ID--i.e., it has no spaces.  (A quick look inside a docx reveals that style IDs are the style names with all spaces removed.)  Styles whose name contains no spaces are applied; styles whose name contains spaces are not.  Why?
