I feel that the usability element of comments and revisions is better
in word in general. They balloon out of the document like natural
annotations - editable, acceptable and rejectable with a click of a
button

That reminds me...i don't know if i'm allowed to make an official
statement, so regard this as inofficial. ;-) Just writing it because it
may be a good encouragement for others...

I never got a MSO license from my workplace, being a freelancer and
hence considered external...and created layouted documents in OOo
exporting to .doc for my company (I'm a graphics designer.).

After doing that for about a year we got a new marketing director, who
is gladly open to opensource and was familiar with OOo. From there it
was a pretty minor step to encouraging the general use of OOo for the
required documents. Just one longish eMail explaining the benefits of
the more stable layout (MSO shifted things all the time).

OOo got installed on the computers of the involved employees and the
workflow uses native ODF now.

[discuss] Vista Version of Open Office

Posted: 06 Jun 2007 05:36 PM PDT

OpenOffice should run fine on vista - some software needs explicit
'vista versions' however that probably indicates either a poor
standard of design, or a dependence upon a certain internal feature
that has been changed in vista.

From what i've heard OpenOffice is currently -compatible- with vista,
and the developers are working on enhanced vista integration in later
versions.

I think most problems in this area will vanish in OOo2.3. We also plan
to add an option to ignore printer settings in documents completely but
I'm unsure whether we can implement this until feature deadline for 2.3.

[discuss] Book-Fold Feature

Posted: 24 May 2007 04:07 PM PDT

This feature already exists...it is called booklet printing, and is
accomplished by treating it as a brochure.

This is a pasting from the help file in Writer...I've printed booklets from
writer using these directions:

Printing a Brochure
You can print a Writer document as a brochure or a booklet. That is, Writer
prints two pages on each side of the paper, so that when you fold the paper,
you can read the document as a book.
When you create a document that you want to print as a brochure, use
portrait orientation for the pages. Writer applies the brochure layout when
you print the document.
To Print a Brochure
1.Choose File - Print.
2.In the Print dialog, click Properties.
3.In the properties dialog for your printer, set the paper orientation to
landscape.

If your printer prints duplex, and because brochures always print in
landscape mode, you should use the "duplex - short edge" setting in your
printer setup dialog.

4.Return to Print dialog, and click Options.
5.In the Pages area of the Printer Options dialog, select Brochure.
6.For a printer that automatically prints on both sides of a page, specify
to print right pages and left pages.
7.In the Print dialog, click OK.
If you print a document in portrait on a landscape page, two opposing sides
in a brochure will be printed next to each other. If you have a printer with
double-sided printing capability, then you can create an entire brochure
from your document without having to collate the pages later. If you have a
printer that only has single-sided printing capability, then you can achieve
this effect by first printing out the front pages with the Right pages
option marked, then re-inserting the entire paper stack in your printer and
printing all the back pages with the Left pages option marked.

If OpenOffice.org prints the pages in the wrong order, open the Printer
Options dialog, select Reversed, and then print the document again.

I think it is more like a macro that will calculate the pages printed on
both sides of a page to create a booklet/book section.

Think of it as if you take a small booklet apart. On a sheet, you could
have pages 1 and 14 printed on one side of the sheet and 2 and 13 on
the other side. The center of the page is the staple point. The next
page would print out 3,12 and 4,11.

This would be a handy macro for self publishing.

Can I upgrade MSO 2004 Student to 2008?

Posted: 06 Jan 2008 04:53 PM PST

Just elaborating on one point for clarification -

As others have replied, normally the education version can't be used to
upgrade to the next *education* version. However, if you purchase the
education version it *can* be used to upgrade to one of the _other_ packages
(Standard or Professional).

However, the release of 2008 works a bit differently (to your advantage) -
If you buy *any retail packaged version* of Mac:Office 2004 (including
Student & Teacher) you qualify for the "free" upgrade to Office 2008 for Mac
Special Media Edition *or* Office 2008 for Mac Home & Student Edition
w/Expression Media. See:

http://www.microsoft.com/mac/go/promotions/supersuitedeal/

As usual, read the "fine print" & make sure to fully comply with the
requirements when you submit for the offer:-)

Hi amit!

Just adding to JE's comments...

The MVPs have been paying close attention to the Office:mac deals that
Microsoft has been offering and often pointing folks to take advantage
of them. Both of them have been for retail purchases of the 2004
software and what you received from your University does not qualify as
"retail". It is instead "volume" licensing, which is why you were able
to receive the software as inexpensively as you did.

If you took the advice of the University to purchase the software
because you thought you'd receive Office 2008 for just S&H, ask them to
show you their proof that what they told you was, in good faith,
accurate. I bet they can't do it. If they can then you have legal
grounds for acting.

Microsoft has not reneged on any offers. Your University reseller was
mistaken in what he told you.

Hope this helps!

i want to define auto-numbering in my CAPTIONS to use the number of the preceding heading style

Posted: 10 Jun 2013 07:13 AM PDT

i need to follow a strange numbering practice for some documents I'm working on. I'd like to be able to rely on auto-numbering, but haven't figured out how to do it for this req'mt. I have a numbered para document with figures. Instead of numbering the figures sequentially as the default Word "Caption" does (i.e., Figure 1, Figure 2, etc) the client wants the figs numbered according to the preceding para no. like this:

9.1 blah, blah, blah iaw w/ figure 9.1-1

==insert figure here==
Figure 9.1-1

9.2 blah, blah, blah

   9.2.1 blah, blah, blah iaw figure 9.2.1-1 and figure 9.2.1-2

       ==insert figure here==
Figure 9.2.1-1

==insert figure here==
Figure 9.2.1-2

Hopefully, you can see my problem. 9.x = Heading 2, 9.x.x = Heading 3. If it was just a matter of using figures at one heading I might use a Style Ref code and a "-[SEQ?]" but I'm not sure how to reset the SEQ code at the next use of the target Style Ref. However, since I have figures at Heading 2 and Heading 3, I don't think i can use the Style Ref anyway. I've been trying (unsuccessfully) to get the client to use a more reasonable numbering system, but they insist on this with the result that figures and x-refs to figures are manually entered, then become out-of-sync on edits. Any ideas?

My windows 8 computer recently corrupts documents that I copy from the internet to a word 2010 document.  It worked ok at first, but now it copies the document over correctly, but when I scroll down, the pages separate, repeat lines, move over to the side, and generally are corrupted.  This happens with all documents, so is not just a problem with a specific site.

using shortcuts: ctrl + u/i/b

Posted: 07 Jun 2013 08:21 AM PDT

using shortcuts for bold, italic and underlining a word. 

right now when I press ctrl + u/i/b, it only highlights the corresponding button(s) on the toolbar in word. it does no longer actually make the word I have clicked on e.g. bold (with ctrl + b). I have to highlight the word first now. even though before  I could also just "click" on a word, without highlighting it and ctrl + u would underline the word, not only highlight the button.

thanks for any help!

Word 2010 - Template prompts ASK Field issues

Posted: 07 Jun 2013 07:36 AM PDT

Hi

I have created a Word 2010 Macro Enabled Template with "Ask Fields" and "Ref Fields" so the user is prompted to fill these in once the document is opened. In the template when you open it by right clicking and selecting "Open" the following macro runs:

Sub autoopen()

ActiveDocument.Fields.Update

End Sub

I have built in some auto text capabilities to this template. However when I open a new document from the template by clicking and selecting "New" when you right click the template or by double clicking it the macro isn't transferred and doesn't run.

Is there a way to make the Update fields macro run when a new document is created from the template?

Many Thanks in advance

How to change maximum display names in a citation

Posted: 07 Jun 2013 03:36 AM PDT

Hi there,

I use the APA 6 style in Word 2013. I read that when you use 3,4 or 5 authors. The first time you citate it should show all the names, and in the citations following it should show only the first name followed by et al. But Word doesn't do that. It just shows them all, always. 

How do I change that? I read something that you can change some script somewhere? But I couldn't find out how to do that. 

Thanks

I'd create a batch file on the desktop to shut down the exchange services in
a timely manner and get into the habit of running it before a shutdown.

How do you regulate your Exchange domain?

Posted: 24 Sep 2004 08:21 AM PDT

I like what Mark says. Technically, he is correct in what to do first.
However, politically, I disagree on what to do first.

You don't want to come in and make enemies. Trust me on that.

The first thing that I would do is discuss, with your management, the option
of cutting down SPAM first. The users will be happy about that. Once the
user environment is happy...

Propose to them two options (note: I don't know the specifics of your
organization, so this is generic):

Option 1) Propose a purchase of a new server with plenty of disk. Note
that a rule of thumb that I use is ~150 people per spindle, dependent upon
utilization...more folks if I am using Outlook 2003 Cached Exchange Mode. I
generally use Windows 2000/2003 standard server and Exchange Server
2000/2003 Enterprise edition. Clustered environments are different.

Option 2) In lieu of this, propose moving some of the largest user's
information to .pst files and implement quotas. Remind management that the
loss of the user's local system could result in the loss of the .pst file if
it is stored on the system. Note that the upper limit of .pst files may be
1.85GB of 2.00GB on older versions (pre-2003) of Outlook.

That way you are leaving it up to management to make the decision on what to
do and you do not seem like the bad guy...and you are providing risk
mitigation information. They will talk to the managers and users, most
likely.

Stories:
I had a very large client in Georgia that would rather purchase more SAN
space than implement quotas for their users. We got a few new servers and a
nice beefy SAN.

On the flipside, I had a client in Virginia that did not want to purchase a
new server or software. They opted to implement quotas and their
management sent an e-mail regarding this. Obviously, there were exceptions
to the rule.

Either way, it was management's decision and I did not seem like the bad
guy.

Thanks Mark.

I was able to point to a new location for the database, but unable to mount
(or force creation of new database).

An Internal Processing Error has occured (ID: c1041724)

I searched some MS KB's - the permissions are ok on the new database
location and there is plenty of disk space.

This msg:
Event 9175: The MAPI Call 'OpenMsgStore' Failed with the Following Error

Is registered in the application event log.

The information store is running and so is system attendant.

Where to from here?

note: I do have a back in which I will restore later.

I'm aware of this setting. I confirmed that it's not enabled.
 

The user can work in offline mode and the message will not open. The minute
he connects to the Exchange server, it will change to show as opened and
read.
We've also tested this by using Outlook WebAccess. The same thing will
occur. Also, regardless of which computer he uses to connect to Exchange,
the same issue occurs so I know that it's not computer specific.

If you have corrected the win* problem, ie you now only have a single win

Have never used winme, but this msg is often given when a user other than

Trying to deploy SP1 for Office 2003?!?

Posted: 24 Aug 2004 10:48 AM PDT

If you mean SMS Administration point, no. I already have an MST for my MSI
that has the product key in there. Now all I am trying to do is patch the
core office installation I have.

Basically I have the CD copied to a directory and an MST applied to the MSI
inside the AD GPO that deploys Office, the only way to deploy SP1 (I assume)
via this method is to now patch my Office 2003 installation.

Which, when I try to do that, it asks for a Product Key...

Someone must be able to answer this, I am not the only one deploying Office
via this method I think I can be at least assured of that.

Office 2003 won't un/re-install, repair, update

Posted: 24 Aug 2004 03:48 AM PDT

Hi,

Based on the article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;826511&Product=off20
03 , please try the following:

1. Select Start > Run; type %TEMP%; in the resulting window, you can find
log files for Office 2003 installation; Open the file: Microsoft Office
2003 Setup(####)_Task(0002).txt where the #### characters in the log file
names are numbers that start with 0001. They increment by one each time
that you run Setup. Therefore, the log file that has the highest number is
the log file for the most recent time that you ran Setup.

2. Reply to this posting with the data present in the above said file.

Regards,
Jagadeesh.P,

Office de-activation?

Posted: 23 Aug 2004 02:43 AM PDT

I did

re install the original - format - if this is really
necessary and use phone to reactivate - of course it is re
useable

The advice here is top get an operational basic office and
an operational pro office. If the systems are only setup to
OS and office format to get back to original, if you want to
be really pedantic replace the HD in the first machine and
re activate office using the telephone.

Build another machine around the hard drive from the first
machine and install pro, re activate using the telephone if
necessary.

This person is trying to recover from an error, they have
done nothing illegal and will not if they want to be a
lateral,

A bit of thinking yourself might help

One caveat, that is only if the Office 2000 version is a retail version and

http://www.microsoft.com/office/access/howtobuy/default.mspx#XSLTsection126121120120
Rerun setup and when it promps "cannot find Office" pop in your prior

complete your install from there.

Deploying Office 2003

Posted: 19 Aug 2004 04:04 PM PDT

The vast majority of the pre-existing versions of Office
were installed manually, can the custom maintenance wizard
run against those installations? The current installations
are also any of three different versions of Office from 97
through to XP, can I set up something to test for version
and the run the appropriate maintenance wizard? Can these
two things be set up as part of the new install of Office
2003 so they are executed before the new version is
installed?

I was hoping that maybe there was a way that I could trick
the removal wizard into removing everything to do with
previous versions of Office so that it can all happen as
part of the new install.

Btw, the new installs are going to be deployed using Group
Policy, if that helps.

Thanks.
