Windows cannot find

Posted: 15 Jul 2013 12:44 PM PDT

I have a Vista desktop using Word 2010, I am sent templates to work on and when I open the templates to do my work I get a message "Windows cannot find.........docx'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." But the document is open and I can do my work. How do I make the message quit popping up.

I have tried the same with my laptop that is windows 7 and have no problem. I can even transfer the files from Vista to the wdw 7 and have no problems.

Word 2010 clash between different first page header and odd even footers

Posted: 15 Jul 2013 06:52 AM PDT

I am trying to create a manual which will be printed double sided. The page numbers are to be in the footers and mirrored to be on the outside of the facing pages when the book is opened i.e. on the left on even pages and on the right on odd pages. In the footer, against the centre margin, goes the document reference number. I've set this up using the 'different odd and even pages' option for headers and footers.

 

I also have to have the chapter title as a running header on all pages EXCEPT the first page of each chapter (I've set each chapter up as a different section). This chapter header will left aligned regardless of whether it appears on an odd or even numbered page. The only way I could find to do this was to check the 'different first page' box in the headers and footers tab of the ribbon bar.

 

THE PROBLEM: how can I deal with the fact that new chapters (sections) can begin on odd or even pages, and therefore I can't determine whether the page number should go on the right in the first-page-of-section footer (as it would for a section beginning on an odd page number) or on the left. Many documents I've seen get round this by specifying that new chapters can ONLY begin on an odd (right) page, but for this document that would incur an unacceptable number of blank pages as there many short chapters.

 

I can't work out how to resolve this apparant clash between the format I want pointing me towards an odd / even page scheme for the footers but a first-page-of-section / subsequent-page-of-section scheme for the headers.

 

What I need is either:

1. some way to suppress the running chapter title in the header on the first page of every chapter (section) WITHOUT having to create a different-first page footer

or

2. some way to force the first-page footer to know whether it is an odd or even page and have the page number on the right or left respectively (and the document number on the opposite side)

or

3. some way to specify separate odd / even footers to be used in the footers only, while the headers use a quite separate and independent scheme of first / subsequent page headers

WITHOUT

giving in and having every new chapter begin on an odd-numbered page!

 

Hoping someone can help with this

Calculating in protected word form

Posted: 15 Jul 2013 06:17 AM PDT

I designed a word document with calculated fields.  The fields that I wanted to calculate I ticked "Calculate on Exit".  Under Number format I selected 0.00 for all the fields that I want to calculate.  I protected the form for filling in forms.  When I use it as a protected form I type in 4.50 text defaults to 4.  When I remove the protection I noticed that under property all the Number Formats have (0.00) has been lost.

 

Grr!

Hi, each time I click into a new file for word/excel/email, I get this message coming up - our IT guy couldn't resolve it - anyone got any ideas?  I've done quite a bit of googling on this but not sure exactly what this relates to.  I recentl had my computer upgraded to office 2010.

Thanks!

New "winword.exe" command on each attempt to access Word

word 2010 document printing text that does not exist in the document

Posted: 10 Jul 2013 02:05 PM PDT

I have created a template - basic fax template with some fill-in fields.  When I print the template a text "a-0789" appears above the Date field.  I have no hidden text in the document.  I have looked at the header/footer view but could not find any codes nor text entry that would indicate exactly where this "a-0789" is.  When I print preview or view my document in Print Layout view, I can't see the text at all.  I tried printing on a different printer but I get the same result.  I just want to remove this extra text somehow but I don't have any idea how.  Please help.

Hi Scoop,

I am an administrator for a mid-large (2500 seat) organization. We deployed

We wish to change this setting (and check the box) for future installs as
well as for existing installations. Unfortunately, it seems to be buried in
the "Settings" registry value (HKCU\Software\MS\Office\10.0\Word\Data).

Are there any options for changing this setting in Word 2002? We have used
our systems management tool (Tivoli) to make changes in similar cases, but
this one is in HKCU, which makes that difficult. We could use login scripting
if there was a registry key to modify, but the key isn't explicit. We could
use Active Directory, but I cannot find reference to whether this setting can
be changed through AD and our AD is managed tightly by a group that hasn't
shared information.

Any options for changing this setting?

Problem while installing OfficeXP Pro on Win98SE

Posted: 14 Oct 2004 09:01 AM PDT

It looks like you will need to do a repair Install of the operating system. Have you got SP2 installed already? SP2 is a relatively new critical update which Microsoft is urging everybody to install. If the laptop is not yours then you "MAY" not be able to repair the installation unless you have the Administrator password or you are a user who belong to the Administrator group.

Let us know if we can be of further help.

Hello

You can address your questions in French to openoffice.org
It is more a subject for the users list than for the discuss list anyway...

If I understand what you say, there would be a bug (in French 2.4) in Tools 
but the Character dialog. Is that right?
I can't verify it here, I get the same droplist of languages for any of the
3 options (selection, paragrapgh, whole text).
A way around this possible bug is selecting the text and chosing Format >
Character > Lettertype > Language.

Suddenly a new appearance of New Document in Word 2010

Posted: 14 Jul 2013 01:49 PM PDT

I am minding my own business, writing in the Word that came from Office 2010 when I open a new blank document, as I have done many many times before, and the appearance is unacceptable to one such as myself. Forgive me if I struggle for the right terminology here. 

Most of my documents show a white page against a dark background. The page appearance has changed, so that I have about half an inch on either side. This is due to much tinkering on my part, and honestly, I've been trying so many things, I am bewildered as to how I made it change at all.

It is my hope you can tell me exactly how to make the white page look to have about 2 inches of "gray" on the sides of it.

I don't know what bothers me more, that I can't have it look the same way it always did before, or that I can't figure out what I am doing wrong in this instance. Please have mercy on me.

Thank you!

ALternating Page Numbers

Posted: 14 Jul 2013 11:38 AM PDT

Running Word 2007 for Office, having a problem with pagination.

I set up a 22-page document with mirrored pages, and I want to place the page numbers on the 'outside' of the pages (right side for odd, left side for even).  This much works; however, the odd pages number correctly (1, 3, 5, 7, etc.), but the even pages all number '2'.  So my page numbers read thusly: 1, 2, 3, 2, 5, 2, 7, 2, etc.

Now, when I go into the Header and manually change the 2 on the fourth page to a 4, ALL the even pages become page 4 (even page 2).  And it doesn't matter what number I put in - ALL of the even page numbers change to THAT number.

Yet if I DON'T do the 'Different Odd And Even Pages', the pagination is correct - 1 is 1, 2 is 2, 3 is 3, 4 is 4, and so on.

Is there a simple fix to get it to do it the way I want?

For those of you who do not know:

The Office Update site
(http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdate/default.aspx) only supports
Office 2000, Office XP and Office 2003 products.

In other words, you WILL NOT see updates for Office 97, Office 95, Office
4.3, Office 4.2, or anything older.

More info:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/FX010402221033.aspx#langSupport




For Office 97/98 updates, go the "Downloads for Office 97/98" section on the
Office Updates site:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdate/CD010224961033.aspx


For updates to older versions of Office (Office 95, Office 4.3, Office 4.2,

This should remove SP2 completely from your system (unless you use Slipstreamed Windows XP SP2 CD). Just use your original CD (or SP1 edition CD).

Then install Uncle Bills Office 2003 SBE; Then SP2.

Hope this technique works.

Was it working fine, before you upgraded?
What are the contents of your /boot/grub/grub.conf or /boot/grub/menu.lst?

Uh-oh, hard drive migration snafu

When you started copying whole partitions with dd, you were copying them

on the new disk are now the same size as the ones on the old disk. Your
larger partitions won't have access to the extra space. Moreover, since
you state that you mounted the new partitions, I presume you had already
created filesystems on them, which were overwritten with the smaller
filesystems from the older drives. Then when you shutdown with the
power button, things were probably in a wildly inconsistent state. Who
knows what happened with the partitions on /dev/hdb.

The fact that the W98 boxes cannot ping the XP box may be significant.
It could be the XP box is running a software firewall to ignore incoming
pings. I am not running XP, so I can't really advise you about how to
disable it.

To try to debug this problem, you could connect your linux box to the
Netgear switch (unplug a W98 box temporarily) and see if you can ping the
W98 boxes from there. If you can ping the other boxes, then that
probably means there is something that is not configured correctly on
the Netgear router (or some other problem with that segment)- but you
would be isolating the problem somewhat.

Also, when you have restarted your linux box when connected to the
network switch run these commands:

# route -n
# ifconfig

And post the model numbers of the Netgear devices.

Thx for the flowers, you could have known it by typing 'pin make'
or alike, dunno if that comes with the shrink wrapped version you
run, never wasted my time with those versions and I don't run
suse on my primary desktop(s) anymore since ages.

Go for the professional version if you like suse or install
another distro, you don't need to buy it, you can simply copy it
from a friend. Sure you can't use the mail/phone? installation
support, but all patches are available to you through online
update. Perfectly legal. On the other hand you get some printed
docs which might be useful in the beginning and suse, like other
distro pay some Linux developer, you'd support with buying.

I was working in Microsoft Word 2010 and three pages of text disappeared. I had saved periodically. Where might it be?

Posted: 14 Jul 2013 06:08 AM PDT

I was typing a document and I was on the third page.  I was almost done when I looked up and the entire document was gone.  I had saved periodically so I believe it can be retrieved somewhere.  When I open the document, there is no text, but the computer is telling me that the size of it is still 14 KB.  Suggestions?

Zoom syncs even when synchronous scrolling off

Posted: 13 Jul 2013 04:52 PM PDT

At times I need to view one part of a document while working on another part. It's simple enough to select View | New Window and then View | Side by Side, then click on Synchronous Scrolling to turn it off. So far, so good. Then, I reduce the zoom size of the part I'm referencing and magnify the zoom size of the window I'm editing. That's where Word 365 has an issue. Even though I've turned synchronous scrolling off, both windows zoom simultaneously.

 

I have not yet been able to have the windows zoom independently. How does one go about this?

 

Change default margins in Word 2007

Posted: 13 Jul 2013 04:18 PM PDT

The default margins for everything in Word 2007 seems to be 1" X 1" X 1" X1".  I use margins of .75" X .75" X .75" X .75" for everything.  I don't care how many times I have set them using custom margins  when I start a new document the custom margins has been reset to the same default measurements.  Is there any way at all to change that default setting or to make the custom margins setting retain the settings I use. 

I have Windows 7 Home Premium and this problem just started a couple of weeks ago.  I've tried running a repair cycle - that didn't work.  I reinstalled Office - that didn't work either.  I shouldn't have to reset my margins for every document I open since that's supposed to be what the "Last Custom Setting" under Margins is for.  But now I have to reset all four sides every time I start a new document.

I hope someone can help me with this.  It at all possible I would prefer to be able to set the default margins to the ones I use.

Final--Final--FINAL: How to Insert Page Numbers on Word 2010

Posted: 13 Jul 2013 05:10 AM PDT

I have wasted more hours and blood pressure on this subject than a rational human should ever have wasted. If I had not paid for Office 2010 specifically for Word, and if I did not have documents in need of easy pagination, I'd have spent my time in other ways. I finally settled for the (non) answer of opening documents in .DOC mode and saving them as .DOCX.

 

I now need to paginate another document, using both roman numerals and page numbers. I thought I would post this question a final time, because the insult of "fields" and other arcana, when pagination used to be as easy as clicking Insert and Page Number, is too much. If there has been any fix that would allow a user of normal intelligence and twenty years' Word experience to insert a page number in a document and not have to spend more than an hour [sic] getting the page number to mirror on verso and recto, I would like to hear it here.

 

Thank you.

Office 2010 Formatting changes not being displayed

Posted: 10 Jul 2013 08:36 AM PDT

I have a user that is having an issue across all Office 2010 (32 bit) applications. Whenever he tries to make any updates to his formatting in any excel/word document, the changes are not displayed on screen (font color change or adding/removing borders to tables). 

When I make a couple formatting changes and print the file, the print does not contain the formatting changes. But if he saves and emails the file to anyone else, the changes appear correctly on another system. 

I have already tried to repair and re-install Office, delete user profile but the issue persists. Is there anything else specific I should be trying?

Thanks,
Ravi
