Ditto and I would like to know where the text file is located so I can
manually add the the 12.0.1 update. Since the MAU 2.1.1 was not an
Official Office update, I question if an update file has been generated?

This is acting like the Apple Software Update. The update log only logs
items installed by the MAU. Since we downloaded and installed the
12.0.1 updater, the MAU did not list the update.

If someone gets the MAU to work, please let the rest of us know what it
says when you click on Installed Updates. I would like to know how to
modify a file so the update is displayed.

Trouble Installing Update

1. The Installer does not support updating an application in a location
other than a bootable partition. You will need to move the application back
to a bootable partition get the updater to work. You can move it back after
updating. (This is a Apple installer function.)

2. The updater will only update the RTM version. You should check the
MicrosoftComponentPlugin.framework and the applications should be 12.0.0
(071130) (European build numbers could be different)

3. If the updater fails or says it cannot find a version of Office that
needs updating, then reboot and try again.

4. Apply the latest Apple Combo updater. It will overwrite files that might
have become corrupt.

Remember to restart after updating and run Repair Permissions

You simply need to drag the application icon from the Office folder to the
dock when in that User. The installer cannot do anything in another User
when run. By installing in the root application folder, Office applications
are available for all users.

Drag an icon to the dock makes it stay there

If you open an application, it will show in the dock but will disappear when
you quit unless you click and hold on the icon and select to "Keep in Dock"

install of Office 2004 freezes at User Information screen

Posted: 10 Mar 2008 10:00 AM PDT

Hi Bob,

I'm pretty sure I currently don't have Test Drive installed. I had been running Office 2004 in Leopard (with Test Drive still installed) and then had a huge crash and had to wipe the hard disk and restore from Time Machine backup. After that, Office kept on freezing, so I used the Remove Office utility to remove all installations of Office. It's at that point that I tried, and failed, to reinstall it.

Now, though, the plot thickens! After reading your response, I tried to use Remove Office again, and it told me I didn't have permission to uninstall office, and that I should do it under the user that installed it. Since I WAS the user that installed it, I first checked that it's not installed under any other users (it's not) and then repaired permissions. But I'm still getting the same message when I run Remove Office. Ack! This is nuts.

The exact version of OS X I'm using is 10.5.2, and the install disk of Office 2004 I have says "MS Office 2004 Mac Pro (Office 2004 Mac Standard)", and the name of my school and "For Microsoft Licensed Campus and School Customers' Use Only" (this is a computer in a laboratory). Is there any other information that would help?

Thank you!!

-Emily

Vista - when I paste from the clipboard to Word (2007) the text is fine, but the grahics don't transfer. instead there is a large empty box where the graphics should be. ( No red X) Sometimes there is a small representation of the graphic with a jxx suffix. 

when my friend does this on a W7 computer it transfers correctly.

office 365 Word won't let me type into a new document

Posted: 10 Aug 2013 02:07 AM PDT

I've had Office 365 for a while now and all was good.

However for the last four weeks, or so, I have not been able to type into a new Word document. If I try to the pc just pings at me and refuses to type. No other office programme is doing this. If I open an old document, or save a new document before typing, close it then open it I can type into it.

I have Win 8 and have only installed updates from windows and new video drivers since the problem began.

I have deleted the normal template and let it recreate one on opening, but the problem still exists.

Any suggestions?

Wrong language in Word

Posted: 10 Aug 2013 01:28 AM PDT

When ever I spell check a Word document particularly one started from my templates it uses the USA Spell checker!  I have set the option in Word to be using UK English.  I have even set Windows to be UK English.  Why it is still going to US English for Spell check I can't understand.  I also told it NOT to determine the language.  Trusting it to use UK English as I set in the options.  I am using Windows 7 Professional 64 bit and Word 2010 professional.  I have looked at answers on the Internet and tried some of the changes but nothing seems to stop my documents going to US English rather than UK.  Can any one let me know how to really stop this?  Thanks.

date format

Posted: 10 Aug 2013 12:13 AM PDT

I am working in Word 2007 compatibility mode. I want the print date of a document to appear in the following format:

nth day of month year

The current code I have is { DATE \@ "d" \*Ordinal } day of { DATE \@ "MMMM yyyy"} which displays as 10th day of August 2013

I would like the th to appear in superscript and I would like the date to be the print date not the current date.  What should the code be in order to do that?

I should note that this is going into a template and I want merged documents based on this template to follow the same rule. 
Thanks.

Asterisk followed by numbers in footnotes

Posted: 09 Aug 2013 11:42 PM PDT

In a journal I'm editing the title of the article is footnoted with an asterisk and the footnote gives brief biographical details of the author. The next footnote starts with number 1 and the numbers are consecutive after that. Unfortunately some of the original Word versions of the articles start with number one after the title instead of an asterisk.

Is there an easy way to change that number one to an asterisk and have the footnote numbers starting at one after that? The only way I've found to do it is to put a continuous section break after the title and footnote 1 and using References, Footnotes, Number Format change the footnote 1 after the title to an asterisk and hit Restart each section. Then I go into the next section and select Number format 1,2,3.

Is there an easier way?

Word macros don't work when ugraded to 2010

Posted: 09 Aug 2013 03:38 PM PDT

I have numerous Word documents with a button on the bottom of each one that has a macro attached to it that opens an email addressed to an individual with certain parts of the email already filled out for the user.  All they have to do is click to send the email.

After upgrading from XP to 2010, none of the macros work.  I tried changing the settings to "Enable all macros" and "Trust access to the VBA Project Object Model", but the macros still do not work.  As a matter of fact, they don't even appear to still be there.

When I open the documents, they open in compatibility mode and then I tried clicking on "Convert", which seems like it should restore the macros, but it doesn't.

Can anyone offer suggestions, please?

The critical part isn't the storage but the hba/driver issue.

IMO best choice at the moment (concerning SAN), qlogic hba with
self-compiled qlogic provided (src) driver. It does redundant
multipathing directly through the driver saving you from using md
devices if you need mp and allows to rescan for new SAN LUNs
without rebooting.

xterm/konsole is much better then a virtual terminal since it's

virtual terminals should be used only when necessary (disaster recovery,

they come before the tape drive and are not themselves terminated.

If the tape drive doesn't have the terminators, put another deive after it

(-idepci), upgrade to the latest 2.4.18-1 packages from
security.debian.org. Don't forget to configure lilo to use the initrd
that comes with that kernel. If you already use 2.4.18, upgrade to
2.4.27 from <http://www.backports.org>.

crontab Qs: what is "run-parts" & how 2 display all crontabs?

Not under RedHat and a bunch of other Linux distributions.
/usr/bin/run-parts is part of the crontabs package, called by an entry in
the root-owned crontab file to itself call a set of files in
/etc/cron.daily/, /etc/cron.hourly, /etc/cron.weekly, /etc/cron.monthly,
etc.

Is there a DiVX codec for Linux?

One often installs xine or mplayer and downloads dozens of codecs from

The download link is here

http://mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/dload.html

The installation of the codecs is very easy: Create a directory /usr/lib/bin32
and unpack all the codecs into this directory.

The next time you you start xine or mplayer, they will both support many many
codecs including windows codecs, realplayer, quicktime and and and.

The installation of xine and mplayer is a little tricky but there are good
chances that your distributor provides packages for one of those players.

xine has the advantage, that it has a fine userinterface, mplayer is more stable
and reliable.

Problems with attempt to install dual-boot linux on Win2000 PC

Posted: 30 Oct 2004 01:39 PM PDT

Thanks, everyone. I've decided I need another vendor and a new distribution.
I hope I can go for Red Hat. I'll check out the latest distribution and ask
for it.

Have a nice day.

Trouble creating root filesystem on 1.44MB diskette

"Peter T. Breuer" <it.uc3m.es> wrote in message
news:it.uc3m.es... 

HALLELUJAH!! I did indeed have support built in. The whole problem it turns
out was that in my syslinux.cfg file, I only had:
default linux
append root=/dev/fd0

It turns out I needed to also have: load_ramdisk=1
!!

Is using rdev and a bootloader mutually exclusive? When I created the image
to go on the disk, the 'make bzdisk' also did a syslinux for me. I hadn't
realized it at the time (and I was reading the steps from an old book) and
so I also did an rdev on it: 49152, but that ruined the disk. Then I read
that rdev is obsolete and I should use either syslinux or lilo. (Syslinux
was already on the disk).
Another step I tried was removing the syslinux and then just dd'ing the
bootimage onto the disk and then doing rdev. But upon booting the system, I
got a message saying that this isn't supported anymore and that I need a
boot loader! So that was a dead-end.

So I'm just curious how I could have used rdev now...
I guess the next thing is to try a CD Rom.

Thanks for all your help! Now i know the dd command inside-out... whew. what
a workout!

Contact MBS support and they will give you a download location for crystal

CRM Demo Machines

Posted: 18 May 2004 09:27 AM PDT

Well, from a clients perspective... it DOES look bad on a laptop with
Virtual PC's.

I had a reseller here with Dell's P4 3.06, 1 GB RAM, and two images - and it
was... far to slow to buy it.

When Microsoft does the DEMO on the product lounches, they do it without
jumping from an image to an image, and they do not do 'crazy' things. They
add a Contact, and such simple tasks, this is why it does work almost OK on
thei DEMO's.

But if you give the client the control of the laptop - so he sees how easy
and fast it is - he will click on Customization, and your PC is stuck for 30
secs...

I had two resellers doing hte demo for an hour and a half. And couldn's
really evaluate if MS CRM is teh tool for us. So I wrote MS and we become a
reseller as well. That seamed to be the quickest way to get teh installation
to evaluate the product for our internal needs.

So think twice about a laptop... :)

Assigning Sales stage to Opportunity

Posted: 17 May 2004 07:49 AM PDT

Nilesh

the Actions-change stage menu option can be turned off through the use of
security roles. Have you changed the default roles?

also keep in mind that if you implement a sales process your users may
decide that using actions change stage is faster then completing or
cancelling multiple tasks per stage. You need to decide whether your users
have to use the tasks as the actions change stage does not complete the
tasks, it only changes the stage

1) create a generic user inm AD (the queue-owner)
2) create a mailbox for that id
3) disable the user
4) set an Exchange Custom Attribute to CRMEmailEnabled

Tell me if the email come multiple times, because I haven't fixed it yet...

Simple import of Product

Posted: 15 May 2004 08:26 PM PDT

You can use the data migration framework or write custom code. Actually if
you have .net developers it may be a good exercise as its an easy task to
bulk load data using the sdk and once you have created it for one type of
crm object its pretty straightforward to do it for another etc

Saving when changing pages?

Posted: 15 May 2004 05:35 PM PDT

Something else to consider is the "user experience". It would be extremely
annoying to the user to have the screen "refresh" when they clicked on another
tab. Being a web page, the user would have to wait for the save and then click
again on the tab they wanted to go to since the refreshed page would show the
default tab.

Hi Dave,

It is not possible to archieve this by using the options of CRM. Indeed it would
be really useful, but Microsoft does not offer this option.
But i do think it is possible to add Javascript code to the aspx pages (for
accounts SFA/accts/edit.aspx), which does run the save and close code before
closing the screen. Don't forget microsoft is not supporting any of these kind
of modifications.

Good luck,
