Trouble with header/page numbers

Posted: 02 Jun 2013 08:33 PM PDT

I foolishly decided to experiment and open up my doc in another word processing program, and now the header (for pagination) is totally messed up. No matter how many times I try this, inserting page number will give it to me ONLY on the first and last pages of this document, and not in any pages in between. What I'd like is to have the page number suppressed on the first page, and then on the next page, start with page number 2.

Can anyone help me with this? I have tried opening up a new document and simply copying and pasting the text into it, but the problem remains.

I have linked the file here.

Copy normal template from word 2013 to Word 2010?

Posted: 02 Jun 2013 03:29 PM PDT

I want to copy the normal template from one computer that is using Word 2013 to another computer that is using Word 2010.  Is that possible?

Word 2010 opens a new process every time I open a new file; cannot close without problems with Normal.dotm

Posted: 02 Jun 2013 01:23 PM PDT

I'm running Word 2010 on Windows 7. Every time I open a second Word file from Windows Explorer or from an internet URL, Word opens a new process (sometimes two), as visible in Task Manager|Processes. When I try to close one file, I of course cannot because my normal.dotm file is in use by another user (ME!!!). I am getting bored with having to click about six times before I can close a file. If only a single file is open, it of course closes gracefully, but I often open many at a time and would like to be able to close them without harassment.

 

My User templates is set to: C:\Users\Frank\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates

My Workgroup templates are saved elsewhere on my F: drive

 

Who can save me from frustration?

Changing the font and paragraph of a blank document

Posted: 02 Jun 2013 02:13 AM PDT

Whenever I open Word 2013 (which I run on Windows 7), I usually click on the blank document which opens up ok, but no matter how I try to change the font to open on Normal as Arial and have 0 points for paragraph, whenever I open a new blank document it always reverts to Calibri 11 and after paragraph spacing of 8 points. On older versions I could set up a normal blank document with the default settings of my choice, but not with 2013. Is there anything I can do to stop this?

Is there a way I can add a header to my gallery with the spacing

Posted: 31 May 2013 02:00 PM PDT

I want the spacing to be retained when I save it to the gallery so that when I insert it into my other documents, it takes on the spacing of when it was created, and not the margins of the new document.

How do I get rid of linked styles in our templates?

Posted: 31 May 2013 12:58 AM PDT

We have a number of Word templates that were created in a pre-version of Word 2003 and these templates have been modified at different times using all the subsequent versions of Word. At the moment they are residing in Word 2010. In the list of styles, there are a number of randomly located linked styles (when they first appeared I cannot say). What I mean by randomly located is that not all styles of a certain type are linked. For example, only Heading 2 is a linked style, not the rest of the heading styles.

What I want to do is change the style type to Paragraph, but when I try to modify the styles, the Style type alternative is greyed out and cannot be changed. I can always select the Disable Linked Styles check box in the Styles list, but that still leaves these random styles in the list for all to see. I'm starting to get uncomfortable questions from users as to why there are only a few of these styles in the list, and since I am responsible for the templates, I want to remove these styles since they are of no use to us.

Thanks,
Lars

How do I get paragraphs to break across pages in a 6X9 template?

Posted: 02 Jun 2013 05:06 AM PDT

I am in the process of preparing a book for publication with Amazon / Create Space - in their provided template for a 6X9 book.  I dropped the complete manuscript into the template... but ALL paragraphs are intact and will not break across pages.  Forcing the break inserts hundreds of unnecessary Paragraph breaks and un-even gaps at the bottom of most pages.  Is there a radio button in Page Layout or somewhere... to cause the pages to break normally across pages?

Open Word documents in separate instances

Posted: 31 May 2013 09:13 AM PDT

My old computer ran on Windows Vista and would open each word document as a separate instance. Now I have Windows 7 64 bit and this does not happen.  I work on large text files, some of them over 10,000 pages long, and can have 4-5 documents open simultaneously. In the past, when I would send one of them to the printer, the others would carry on working fine. Now, I have to wait for all the open documents to repaginate, and if I try to cancel repagination all word windows stop responding and I have been losing hours of work. Any way to get 7 to work like Vista in this regard. I have aLenovo W530, Intel Core i7 3820QM @ 2.70GHz, 8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 798MHz. I checked with resmon and CPU and mem are no where near being used up.

Can one 'alphabetize' the styles in the ribbon Style list?

Posted: 31 May 2013 06:30 AM PDT

Hello.

I have a list of styles that I like, headings 1 through 4, numbered 1, 1.1, 1.1.1, and 1.1.1.1. However, when I go to the style box in the ribbon at the top of the page, they appear in helter-skelter order. One would have hoped for an alphabetical order (or numerical order in this case), or at least a an automatic placing of the most recently used ones at the top.

Is there a way to make that happen?

Thanks,

Envelope printing problem in Word 2010

In Word 2010 after typing a letter, then highlighting the address I go to 'Mailings' then 'envelopes', then print.  For some reason the envelope now prints with very large text.  I have checked the font and it is on size 12.  Any suggestion as to what might have gone wrong.

How expand a 1.1.1 type heading down to the 1.1.1.1 level

Posted: 30 May 2013 01:01 PM PDT

I may have Word 10 but I know it is at least Word 7. (Word 7 is what it says when I press F1; the old Help > About way seems to no longer exist.)

 

 In an important (by now 172-page) document I've been working on for about three years, I have headings running from 1 to 1.1 to 1.1.1, and now I realize I will need a 1.1.1.1 heading. I almost certainly established my current headings based on Shauna Kelly's masterful and detailed explanation, but now as I tried to expand down to level 4 (i.e. 1.1.1.1) I ran into trouble, and messed up my 1.1.1 headings. Fortunately I was able to retrieve a recent copy of the document with the headings intact.

 

With my now septuagenarian brain, I would hate to start the process all over again step by step, for fear I would REALLY mess things up as I did already in my earlier attempt. If we assume (as I'm 99.99% certain we can), that my current headings were created in the list style recommended by Shauna, could someone please provide a series of simple steps for simply extending my present system down to level 4?

 

Many thanks!

Mail Merge using distribution group as From

Posted: 30 May 2013 09:15 AM PDT

I have Office 2007. I am using Word, Excel and Outlook.

When trying to do a mail merge I am able to get everything that I need with the exception of the From field in the email.

I would like to use a group distribution in the From field.

Is there a way to do this?

Streamline mail merge and pdf creation

Posted: 30 May 2013 07:40 AM PDT

Hi everyone,

On a monthly basis I receive a report of hours contained in an excel spreadsheet where the data needs to populate a Word file in the form of a certificate. This is usually done using a mail merge from within Word. After the certificates are populated, I have to create a pdf of each file separately and then each of the certificates is emailed to a separate email address.

As I'm trying to streamline this process, I wondered whether anyone could offer any time-saving advice. I don't think I could save any time with the mail merge part, but it's very time consuming having to create a separate pdf file for each page in the merge results and then having to attach each file to a separate email. I wondered if a macro of some sort would help with this. Is it possible to click a button attached to a macro and have each page of the mail merge results create a separate pdf and then attach it to an email? Maybe I'm asking too much here but just thought I'd run it past everyone in case there is in fact some time saving function that I'm missing out on.

Really appreciate any advice.

No, I don't take my Ford to VW dealer to get fixed, Ifix it myself. Yes, I
understand the post is in the wrong subject; question remains unanswered as
to why you had to be so un-helpful. You could have chosen to explain where
her post may have been better placed, you (probably) could have helped her
out, yet you chose to be snide; I'm going to hope that is not your way of
life and I'm going to contribute it as per my point, that being it should not
be so difficult to obtain answers and solutions to problems caused by "fixes"
or issues more common than would seemingly appear, due to Microsofts
selective and misguiding way of making actual answers such as what will make
the machine work properly more easily found; instead of as per my last post,
three to five layers into any given FAQ. Also you left unanswered my several
questions about truthfully, how easy do you find workable solutions, and as a
matter of fact how many of those sol;utions do not create even worse
problems? Huh? You can tell us. Noone should think less of you, maybe (as I
would), MORE of your ability to be honest; and if'n anyone does think less,
guess what, they have the prob and why would you even give a F---? Not really
any skin off your nose, is it? I'm just trying to point out it becomes
frustrating with all these sp's which cause problems elsewhere with other
components at such rate as to make it difficult to remember "Oh, yeah, this
I've dealt with before, now what exactly / how did I fix this last time?"
OK? I truly meant no harm, just saw your less than helping reply and
snapped, forgive my taking it out on you, and yes, if in fact I did take my
Ford to VW, I'd not be surprised if the repairs were done incorrectly. Brings
to mind the question; where the heck do you get good advise / solutions for
problems with your machine; here from other users, right? Shouldn't they come
from MS? Again, are you applying SP2 right away? Peace, Love, Dope, R___

This is generally incorrect. The new kernel becomes default, but the old

dangerous to remove an active kernel in a live system, you can really blow

Replacing kernels is one of the few things in Linux that really takes
rebooting to use the new software.

When you are working with Project Server, then Project Web Access is the
recommended method for gathering actuals from team members. Is there no way
that you can set up Project Web Access for use by the remote team members?
Very simply, you are using the Project Server system contrary to how it is
