Works 7 - address book

Posted: 17 Feb 2005 03:03 AM PST

Hello Indera -

For several years now, Works has used the Windows Address Book (aka WAB).
For example, if you completely remove Works from your system, the address
book will still remain.

Note - Works used to have it's own address book (based on the Works
database). For people who still have this old format, there is an "importer"
in newer versions of Works that will migrate your data.

Address Book/Contacts List

Posted: 15 Feb 2005 04:19 PM PST

Hi Davdor,

The Address Book you access from Works and Outlook Express is the Windows
Address Book which is included with it's operating system

If all you want to do is make a back up copy of it's data, perhaps save it
to a file folder then copy it to a floppy disk.

To are many ways open the Address Book....

Click Start on your desktop, select Programs, select Accessories, click
Address Book.

Click File on it's menu bar, select Export, click Address Book (WAB)...

In the Select Address Book File to Export to dialog popup, Select where you
want to save in, give the file a name, then click OK.

Copy the saved file to storage of your choice.

Ken
Note: there is various ways to accomplish this task, I only described one.

It's only a minor nuisance. Only hope I can save it in some form so that I
don't have to retype it if my computer ever "bombs" or I replace it.

Empty field effects printing on form

Posted: 14 Feb 2005 12:23 PM PST

Re: I thought about formatting the PO box field as text and then entering a
space character for the records that don't use a PO box. Would this work or
is there a better way?

Hi Michael,

Entering a space character will work.

If the suggestion in my previous post to uncheck "do not print blank lines"
in the printer dialog window is not possible due to conflict with other
lines in the data base records.

Putting a space character in the PO box field can be automated.

Create another Field in the database, this field to be used in the merge, it
will be a duplicate of the PO box field except if the record in PO box field
is blank it will have a "space character" in it.

Put this formula in the new field... =IF(PO box=0," ",PO box)

If the PO box field record is blank then "space" else equal PO box field
record.

Sad story, however
You really should have a current upto date AV app and Firewall installed.
ZoneAlarm has a free version, blocks incoming + outgoing whereas default
Winxp firewall only stopps incoming.
All the major AV vendors have a free on line scan process.
You might also want to download, update and run both Adaware and SpyBot,
both free.
Crashing whilst only on the internet may indicate a modem or win connection
prob, assuming no trojan/virus.
I assume also that both win and office are patched, if so first try
the scannow command, see win help.
Test pc if still a problem,
Try; http://www.perfectdrivers.com/howto/msconfig.html
msconfig, an MS app.
In services tab, hide all MS, then untick the rest
In start up tab, untick all
Reboot sys
If problem cured its a process of illimination to find the problem
service/startup.
If still a problem try
http://www.dependencywalker.com/
read about it, then run yr office app via this to see if it indicates the
problem
Finally the MS support via email is actually quite helpfull, and doesnt
cost.

Thanx, this helped a lot!
Since this worked fine, I have one more question..

As I wrote I have one administrative installation point, I
have made one MST file customizing Word, Excel and
PowerPoint (Basic installation). I have made a .CMW file
for distribution of Outlook and a .CMW file for
distribution of Access. The installation of Outlook and
Access after the basic installation works fine if I
install it to the same PC.

What if I would like to have only Outlook on one computer,
and maybe a couple weeks after installing Outlook I would
like to install the rest of Office.. Do I have to make a
new administrative installation point, make a MST file
for distribution of Outlook and make a CMW for the basic
installation? How would you do this? Could you some how
use the same administrative installation point? Any tips
on how to set this up?
About licenses - I have the Pro license.. :-)

% Completion question

Posted: 23 Aug 2004 07:16 PM PDT

You'll need use a text field to hold your results with a function to convert
your calculated percentage from numeric to text and append the "%" character
to the result.

FYI, if you have 100 sites to convert and have done 37, you can use the "%
Physical Complete" field to record progress at 37% if you don't mind
figuring the percentage by hand.

I would suggest you think a bit more about your plan's structure and your
method of recording progress. In terms of monitoring whether you are on
time and within budget the breakdown you've outlined and your method of
recording progress won't help you actually manage the work very much.

Saying that 17% of the sites in Subregion 1 and 42 % of the sites in
Subregion 2 has been converted doesn't tell you WHEN Region 1 will finish,
whether you're ahead of or behind schedule, or how much it will cost.

Consider ... what if the circumstances of the installations are such that
the conversion of each site in Group1 only takes 1 day but Group 2's sites
are much more complex and take 10 days each? The 33% of the sites in Group
1 represent only 3 days of work while the 11% of Group 2's represents 30
days and it has cost you 10 times as much for the resources to do Group 2's
11% than it did to do Group 1's. Thus Subregion 1 is really NOT at 17%
complete in terms of the total time and cost required to do all the work.
Rather it actually is only 12% complete using my example numbers because you
have worked a total of 33 days out of a required total of 279 days.

Yes it definitely makes sense except that I still can't see how a milestone

no means calculated from other tasks

Work vs Duration

Posted: 23 Aug 2004 06:23 AM PDT

Yes and no

I agree that working with duration and deadlines makes sense. I do not
endorse the concept of % complete unless there are discrete countable
events - in another post, I indicated that if you were digging a 100 foot
trench and had dug 50 feet I would gladly give you 50% complete. However
most "white collar" work does not have discrete countable events (like
"Design" work) so percent complete is way too subjective... I'd encourage
"Done/non done" reporting and report out slippage against major
milestones...

Microsoft would have charged you $10 for a new product key if they still
supported Works Suite 99. Check out the price of the current version on
amazon.com at

Works Suite 2005 has two wordprocessors - how can I have both ?

Posted: 08 Feb 2005 03:27 PM PST

When you have Works Suite the Works Word Processor is hidden. To gain
access, search for WksWP.exe , right click, select Send To, click Desktop
(create shortcut). Open Works Word Processor from desktop icon.

I asked but got no response: 

Really, does anyone here know how we can get the benefits of both WPs ?
After all, the Works 8 wordprocessor was there working just fine
before I installed Word 2002 - I hadn't expected to lose the Works WP
as I did, as I had only bought Works Suite 2005 to gain Word and Money.

So I'll ask the question again: how can BOTH WPs be made available ?

HELP! - Works 8.0 Word Processor Letters Crowded

Posted: 07 Feb 2005 12:53 AM PST

Hi Bob,

Thanks for letting us know knowledge base article "Q252874" found the
problem.

Dear Ken:

EUREKA!!! YIPEEEE!!!! The explanation in this MS article
found the problem!! It was a simple matter of going into the Control
Panel in Windows XP and changing the printing parameters a little.
I would have never guessed what to do without the "Q252874"
article. My IBM Proprinter II dot matrix printer has always worked
fine at a text resolution setting of 240 x 144. Apparently on
Windows XP, the resolution needs to be reduced to 120 x 144.
That's OK. The printer still works, and if I want really good performance,
I realize I need to get a newer printer.

I'm really looking forward to using Works 8.0! :-) You've made the
difference to me in getting it into functional shape. THANK YOU!!!

Thanks, that works. I also found it happens with Page Width and Margin
Width which you can access on the tool bar.

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

 

Neil

Count entries in mail merge document

Posted: 30 Jun 2013 09:58 AM PDT

I have a spreadsheet listing people and their dependents.  I am creating a mail merged personnel page listing the names of the dependents.  In excel, I can easily count the number of dependents.  Is there anyway for Word to count the number of non-blank entries that are made showing dependents names?

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?
