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.

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

Not exactly. You can use GPO in conjuction with an Office Admin image and
you can update that image (this is no different than the way the Office 2000
and Office XP worked). What you cannot do is use the Local Install Source
feature with GPO as it requires an Admin image not a compressed CD image.
The LIS feature is controlled via SETUP.EXE which is not used by GPO.

The information in the Office Resource Kit at
http://www.microsoft.com/office/ork/2003/two/ch5/DepC04.htm should help you
determine how to deploy via GPO.

Legit to install upgrade on new machine?

Posted: 03 Aug 2004 11:07 AM PDT

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.

install after restore

Posted: 03 Aug 2004 08:38 AM PDT

You, too, will need the original qualifying product. If you had read the
upgrade license, it requires you to retain the QP as a part of the upgrade
license. If you no longer have the QP, the license is invalid.

This failure can be the result of dust on the CD or possibly a damaged CD.
First try cleaning the data side of the CD with a soft cloth. Then see if
you can manually copy that file from the CD to your hard disk. If that
succeeds, then try installing again.

Linux installation problem

Posted: 29 Jul 2004 01:17 PM PDT

John Bahran wrote:
 

What is the installation telling you is wrong?

Hmm-- I am wondering whether you are deleting the XP (NTFS) partitions
first. You say you want to install Red Hat "on top" of XP, which I
interpret to mean you don't want XP anymore and would like to use that hard
drive space for Linux instead.

If this is the case, you need to go into the partitioning part of the
install (do this partition work manually rather than automatically), and
first delete the NTFS partitions that Windows is on. Then add ext2 or ext3
partitions for Linux (and you'll need one swap partition as well). And the
root partition would be "/", not "/;" (unless you know something I don't).

While you are at it, it's a good idea to make several partitions. Make the
"/" partition a certain size, and create more partitions for /usr, /var,
and /home (plus the swap partition). This is only a suggestion. It'll
help to keep /var's log entries and other data from scattering all over the
place, and having a separate /home partition means that if you ever upgrade
or reinstall, your personal data and settings can stay intact, as you can
elect not to erase/reformat a /home partition when you re-install Linux.
It's also good to keep /usr separate for a lot of reasons, since it'll
contain program files, information, and other things that can get changed
around a lot. Isolating partitions like this is helpful and safer for
doing maintenance and backup work. For ex. if /usr gets hosed somehow, it
can be important that you can at least access other partitions in order to
use certain repair methods.

I'm not the best one to explain these things, but maybe I said something
useful.

And try to get a newer Red Hat disc if you can ;-)

to stop logging pings (that are almost entirely refused) due to the great
number of them I get.

If you do that, you will be able to see just what requests are being
rejected by your firewall and can adjust it to accept those you need to
accept. Every once in a while I get mysterious failures which usually mean
some server has changed to a new IP address and I must open that port from
that address. But it is rare and so far has been only with Intuit,
Quicken, and TurboTax.

Didn't try that approach.
Although my BIOS appears to allow booting from a USB device, it totally
ignored my request to boot from the external USB drive.
However, by booting the SuSE installation disk instead, its installation
process (the 'boot existing Linux' part) then found the drive and booted it.

I suspect it was able to do so because it had already loaded sufficient

For Office 2010 I believe the following applied:

WORD: C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates\Normal.dotx

EXCEL: C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Excel\XLStart\Book.xltx

but these no longer work. A Search of Office online is useless as was my initial Google search: most responses deal with changing defaults, but do not address location of the default templates...

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.

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 turn off this feature so that I can add/change information in other areas that are not in these darkened areas (fields?

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,

Peyton Todd

My computer had a virus so had to re-install windows7.  I can open word documents in my documents folder but if I try to open documents on the web (like a bank statement) all I get is symbols. 

 

Anyone advice on how to fix the problem?

printing a 42 page  (21 sheets of paper) booklet with word 2010 document (changed to 2003 style) and the duplex page prints upside down.  Is that a word problem or a printer problem?  And only 22 pages (11 sheets of paper) print even though printer is set on "whole document".

Permanently change line spacing

Posted: 30 May 2013 05:47 PM PDT

How do I change the line spacing to "single" permanently so I don't have to change it every time I open a new document? I have already gone into Change Styles-line spacing-set as default, etc. Nothing is working. Would someone please walk me through this? Thanks
