Hi,

This is driving me nuts, because I dont know even where to start looking for solving this.

Please look at my screenshot of the template Im making. This shot is taken on page 3 in a document. Page 2 ends with a page break. On the first page (pictured) there's a Heading 1 with a 18pt space above. The page ends with a page break. On next page, there's a new Heading 1. Also with 18 pt before. Both headings are in their original heading format. Both headings are, according to word with 18 pt space above. But clearly there's some 10 pt missing somewhere, beacuse they dont align with each other (and this looks really bad if you print the text). 

How do I make sure that when a page starts with a heading there's always the same amount of space above?

Many thanks in advance.

Opening Files

Posted: 30 Jun 2013 09:57 PM PDT

When I try to open a file, all I get is folders.  Example:  I click on "My Document" and it shows me a bunch of folders instead of folders and files like it used to.  Then when I go to the folder, there is nothing there.  The files I want are still in my computer and I can find them by doing a search, but I want it like it used to be.

Centre Text in a MsgBox

Posted: 30 Jun 2013 02:26 PM PDT

Hi All,

 

I have some questions about the use of MsgBox.

 

I Know you cannot centre text with a command in MsgBox, but I have thought of a round it, but not sure if it will work, but I'm stuck, and would like some help please.

 

1. Can you set the Height of a MsgBox?

2. Can you set the Width of a MsgBox?

3. Can you set where on the screen that it will be displayed, ie. can you Centre it in the centre of the screen?

 

I would like to use the following code to centre the Text...

 

MsgBoxWidth = Width/2

TitleWidth = len(Title)/2

Space = MsgBoxWidth-TitleWidth

Gap = Chr(32) * Space

 

MsgBox(Gap & Title)

 

I'm not sure How do you set the Size of a MsgBox, and How do you convert the Gap to show the space size as in Space.

Ie. If Space = 10, how would I show it in Gap as "          ", so I can use code above so that the Title will be centred in the MsgBox.

 

Thank you in advance

Use Cross References between Word Documents

Posted: 27 Jun 2013 06:36 AM PDT

I would like to use cross references across documents (numbered items, equations, etc).  I can create a hyperline to equations but the numbering is lost (Equation 125 in the first document becomes Equation 1 in the second).  The hyperlink works correctly but because Equations appear to be numbered sequentially in each document, the numbers don't carry over.   I would also like to be able to cross reference section numbers as well.  Any thoughts?

Installing SR3 for Office 2000 with SR1 installed

Posted: 27 Sep 2004 10:11 AM PDT

This may sound crazy, but I would recommend that you
try going to the Microsoft Windows Update site at:
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp.

Update your Microsoft Windows here, and when that is finished
click on the words on the page heading that say "Office Update".
This will take you to the site to update all of your Office products.
Both of these sites will search your computer to determine what
updates you need for your computer. It takes all the guess work
out of it. I suggest you use them on a regular basis.

At the Office Update site, I suggest that you do them in sequence:
I.e. do not install SP3 without first installing SP2. You WILL have
to make several trips at each of these sites as there are some
of the updates that must be installed by themselves.

Patch Package error on reinstall

Posted: 27 Sep 2004 07:28 AM PDT

My guess would be that you didn't clean enough stuff out with the
installer utility, so the installer program is still looking for the
same patch as earlier or maybe it's looking for a different patch now.

No you don't have to uninstall it first because the machine has gone kaput so you can't do anything with it. I have intsalled the same copy of my XP Office Professional on many machines and I have lost count of them now!.

Also, you can install OEM on any machine you want provided it is not linked to the bios of the PC. Dell and most OEM software isn't and so multiple installation is quite possible.

Office XP SBE Licence query

Posted: 24 Sep 2004 03:27 AM PDT

I don't know why you want to create Admin Install for the machines which already has XP Office preinstalled. I suggest the following:

1) Run the following utility on each machine to obtain the product keys for the machines and write these down on sticky labels and stick them at the back of the machines.

http://www.magicaljellybean.com/downloads/kf141.zip
http://www.webtree.ca/windowsxp/keyfinder.exe

2) Now logon on EBay and see who is selling Office XP CDs and buy just one copy for future reinstall in case of hard disk crash. People do have these problems quite a lot on these Newsgroups!! Also, make sure you have kept 3 copies of the CDs you buy so that installing Service Packs bcomes easy!!

Microsoft will NOT sell you any volume licenses for Office XP as they want to oush their latest software o generate more revenue for poor old Bill Gates. You could buy 20 VLKs for Office 2003, or wait until next year for Office 2005.

You already have 20 licenses, OEM though, but who cares unless you want to create more work (i.e. make yourself look busy – mind you I used to work for an American Corporation in London – Tyco remember? where I found that Americans like keeping themselves busy pen pushing!) for you to reinstall Windows XP and Office XP on each machine.

There is nothing illegal in what I have said because you have inherited the machines and therefore the licenses that came with them. When you say inherited do you mean you have just changed jobs and so you are now in charge of the IT systems?

Hope this helps.

You have an upgrade. If you no longer possess the product you used to
qualify for the upgrade, or it came preinstalled on another system, then you
may not use the upgrade. You cannot use any other product, other than the
one used originally, as the licence is now 'assimilated' into the upgrade
and the two are inseperable. If you no longer have it, you will need to
purchase Office 2003.

4. Restore the backup data to the array.

I am absolutely amazed by the number of times we see this same situaiton
arise in posts here. Choosing a RAID array over a single drive can, and
often does, create a system that is much less reliable than one with only
one drive, for the reason that, if one of the RAID array drives fails, the
operator can't figure out what to do to get the array back up again.

This is why Charles Lindbergh chose a single-engine airplane for his
historic flight across the Atlantic in 1927. His argument was that few of
the multi-engine airplanes of the time could stay aloft with only one
engine, so a multi-engine airplane was ultimately less reliable than a
single-egine plane.

The argument can be made that the Lindbergh example has nothing whatever to
do with multi-drive RAID arrays, but that is only true if the operator
knows exactly what to do if a drive fails.

kde 1.x has not been maintained for ???? and is loaded with bugs, etc.
If a newer kde (eg., 3.2.3 available for RH8 and up) is not to your
liking, I would suggest you find a wm that you _do_ like and that is
_still_ maintained -- your life will be _much_ simpler.
 

The _entire_ install process _with_ new partitioning on this old PII
350 took about 45 minutes (somewhat stripped using customn install) --
the newer install programs are _much_ cleaner, quicker, and there is
_no_ reason to repartition your hard disks if you don't want to --
just reformat to your preferred fs (ext3?). BTW, it is _highly_
recommended to wipe a disk after a thorough hosing just to make sure
that no bit gremlins remain on disk -- running badblocks will do ;-)
 

Assume now you've learned the reason(s) why you should not go rolling
your own libc files until you fully understand the implications. The
last "official" errata update from RH was glibc-2.2.5-44.i686.rpm
(2003-11-13). Even RH8 and RH9 are at 2.3.2. And you didn't even
mention upgrading gcc :-( 2.3.3 doesn't show up till FC2.
 

Since you're using an X window manager -- kde -- you will find that
all those old configs are (all but) useless. Even XFree86 configs may
be problematic and newer distros get them pretty good at install
anyway.

Same may or may not apply to your app configs -- only you can tell.

Use a rescue cd of some sort (I've used http://www.sysresccd.org/ ) to
boot up and just try to write the data to cd from the command line if
necessary. Note that above cd can be loaded into memory then
unmounted, thus freeing the cd to be used to burn data to cd :-)
There are probably other similar cds.

Due to changes in distros, kernels (2.4.x or 2.6.x), threads (nptl
now), XFree86 vs X.org Foundation vs freedesktop.org -- well, you get
the picture: it's finally time to bite the bullet and do the new
install/upgrade thing ;-)

And after installing from iso's (?) get familiar with apt/synaptic if
not so already.

partition magic stops working after installing linux

Windows will only assign drive letter to partition type it recognizes;

2) edit the partition table so that Windows doesn't think it should access
them.
 

This isn't really a solution, but have you considered using a different
tool to handle partitioning? GNUPartEd works well with both Windows and
linux filesystems and with QTPartEd as the GUI actually looks and feels a
great deal like Partition Magic.

You might want to try the "System Rescue CD" (http://www.sysresccd.org/)
for a self-contained, bootable CD with these and other useful tools.

Dual boot Linux-Win98, LILO problem

Versions of LILO since 22.5 (out now for over a year) have a simpler, and more
general syntax:

boot-as = 0x80

This is now the preferred syntax, as the BIOS device codes of disks are
determined by the LILO boot loader dynamically (at boot-time), and the
appropriate drive mapping is installed if necessary.

As long as the disk configuration is static, the older "map-drive" syntax may
be used. "map-drive" will be retained in future releases of LILO for backward
compatibility.

Windows won't start after partition resize

Harry George <com> writes:
 

1. From http://homepage.ntlworld.com/allcam/hddformat.html

For Windows 2000 and XP user, it is a little bit complicated, you have
to choose according to your situation:

1. If all your computers have Windows 200 or XP, NTFS is certainly
the choice;

2. If you wish to have two or more operation system on the same
computer, such as Windows 98 in one partition and Windows XP in
another partition; you'd better choose FAT32, otherwise you can not
access the Windows 98 partition when you are running Windows XP, or
access the Windows XP partition when you are running Windows 98.

3. For those people who use portable hard drive or external hard
drive:

3.1 If all your computers are in NTFS format, choose NTFS
for your portable hard drive;

3.2 If your computer have both Window 98 and Windows XP, and
the system hard drive ( where the Windows 98 and XP are
installed) should be FAT32, and the portable hard drive
should also be FAT32;

3.3 In situation of 3.2, if you are not going to use the
portable hard drive under Windows 98, you may well choose
NTFS, as this will allow you to use a 250GB hard drive
under one drive letter (such as F:)


2. From "man mkfs.msdos"

DOS 6.x WARNING
The DOS 6.x FORMAT command looks for some information
in the first sector of the data area of the partition, and
treats this information as more reliable than the information
in the partition table. DOS FORMAT expects DOS FDISK to clear
the first 512 bytes of the data area of a partition whenever a
size change occurs. DOS FORMAT will look at this extra
information even if the /U flag is given -- we consider this a
bug in DOS FORMAT and DOS FDISK.

The bottom line is that if you use cfdisk or fdisk to change
the size of a DOS partition table entry, then you must also use
dd to zero the first 512 bytes of that partition before using
DOS FORMAT to format the partition. For example, if you were
using cfdisk to make a DOS partition table entry for /dev/hda1,
then (after exiting fdisk or cfdisk and rebooting Linux so that
the partition table information is valid) you would use the
command "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda1 bs=512 count=1" to zero
the first 512 bytes of the partition.

BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL if you use the dd command, since a small
typo can make all of the data on your disk useless.

For best results, you should always use an OS-specific
partition table program. For example, you should make DOS
partitions with the DOS FDISK program and Linux partitions with
the Linux fdisk or Linux cfdisk program.

Adjust Work Based on Skill Level

Posted: 21 Aug 2004 12:03 PM PDT

Hi,

Try the following macro.
Attention, depending on task type and effort driven there is an effect on
task duration but I hope you know all that.
Put "standard" work (in hrs) in the number 1 field of the assignment
(assignment lines are the detail lines in a Usage view), and the correction
factor in the number1 field of the resource:

Sub Skillwork
dim job as task
Dim ass as assignment
dim slave as resource
for each job in activeproject.tasks
if not job is nothing then
for each ass in job.assignments
set slave=activeproject.resources(ass.resourceid)
ass.work=ass.number1*60*slave.number1
next ass
end if
next job
end sub

HTH

Corey --

The designation "ewks" refers to "elapsed weeks." An elapsed week is seven
24-hour days, thus, it will ignore the project calendar. Hope this helps.

Resource Hours

You have a couple of options. IMO, if the task requires his full attention
from start to finish and once started will take take him 6 hours to
complete, it is a 6 hr duration task, not a 1 day task. If you estimate
that it will take 4 to 6 hours, since durations are estimates, not
certainties, until the work is actually done, split the difference and plan
for it as a 5 hour duration task or 6 hours if you want to allow a bit of
cushion. Another way to do it is to assign him at less than 100%
allocation - again, split the difference and since he needs to accomplish an
estimated 5 hours of work over the course of an 8 hour duration, his
assignment for that task is 5/8's or about 65%. That means over the span of
an 8 hour work day, he will be doing the equivalent of 5 hours of actual
work on this particular task.

Is there a way to customize reports?

Posted: 18 Aug 2004 06:25 PM PDT

Hi

yes, you can customise (most) reports to a greater or lesser degree ...
instead of going to Current Activities, choose View / Reports / Custom,
click on Completed Tasks and then click on the EDIT button ... give the
report a new name, and then you can play with the filter options (choose
Incomplete rather than Complete) and the table that the data comes from ...
i didn't have a look at what your options were here but you might be able to
get the fields that you want by changing the table.

If you can't get exactly what you want using this report, post back with
details of what you actually want to see on the report and hopefully someone
will come up with a way to achieve it.

Hope this helps
Cheers

CRM Exam: Outlook graph ?

Posted: 08 Apr 2004 05:09 AM PDT

Hi John,

I'm sorry but i don't remember the whole question(s). There is something
like a 'Outlook playback graph'.
In first exam (1.0) there was nothing about a outlook graph. But my second
and third try there where 3 questions, that where all related to the
'Outlook playback graph'.

This is some information from the white paper:
************************************************** *****
Performing "write" operations while offline

When the Outlook client is running in offline mode, the platform shim makes
one additional database write for all successful data modification actions
against the local store. This additional write occurs against a second store
called the playback graph. This graph records all SOAP-based API calls.

Reconnecting to the primary server: "going online"

When the user chooses to reconnect to the central server, the platform shim
bypasses the platform, and a synchronization process starts. Unlike the
synchronization process for disconnecting from the server, reconnecting is
somewhat more involved. Because Microsoft CRM needs to guarantee that all
business logic will be performed on any and all actions submitted to the
central server, it doesn't use SQL replication. For example, while a user
was disconnected, the user's security privileges might have been altered, or
objects to which the user originally had access to might have been modified
in such a way as to render that access obsolete. A separate, though related,
reason why actions must be played back through central business logic is to
guarantee that all objects work within current workflow and callout process
rules.

Check lead 's values in a Workflow for opportunity

Posted: 07 Apr 2004 12:50 PM PDT

Yon will NEVER see the Lead as an option in Workflow for an Opportunity. By
doing the mapping, what you have done is setup CRM to copy the data from the
Lead into the Opportunity. thus, you can now check the field in the Opportunity
directly.

Microsoft CRM and MAS90

Posted: 07 Apr 2004 08:43 AM PDT

Ann, we are a MAS90 silver partner here in South Florida as well, and
although we do some customization and data migration we havent entertained
anything for MAS90/MS-CRM. Could you possibly have someone from your
company contact us as to maybe work out an outsource solution so we can
goto our customer base? Not sure if you have anything canned or not to
start with. We are really starting to push the MS-CRM into our client base
and probably will have needs for several people versed in both.

Promoting CRM Contacts to CRM Contacts in SFO Client

Posted: 07 Apr 2004 05:09 AM PDT

Bill,

When you go offline, the CRM Contacts that you own are synched with your Outlook
Contacts. So, in your example, only the 1 user who "owned" the Contact would
have it synched into Outlook.

To your question about initial setup, that is always a big item in a roll-out.
There is always a huge effort involved in consolidating the information that the
various reps have in their respective databases.

Matt can you expand on this a little. Do you mean if there are 5 CRM users
that are working a common set of accounts and contacts that each user would
have a contact record in their contact folder that was linked to the CRM
contact record, and that changes made by any of the five CRM users to either
the contact record in their contact folder or to the Contact record in CRM
would eventually synchronize with the 5 users and the CRM contact? If so how
do you initially set this up especially if before you install CRM each
potential CRM user has their own copy of the contact information with
slightly different information?
