| Adding Reaseach Databases and my own self-made resources? Posted: 14 Aug 2013 02:57 PM PDT Reseach: I want to add databases within all of my types of documents. All medical ones for my NP profession. I have many that need a password. Can I add them? THX! I have been trying for weeks! If a document type does not have research, maybe one day it will. How about other types of documents, like ones I have created so I can reaseach from within the document, my own kept source? Thanks again, Serena |
| How does one remove the word "comments" from MS Word's comment balloon? Posted: 14 Aug 2013 02:26 PM PDT I'd like to remove the word "Comment" from Word's comment balloon. It is redundant and it takes up necessary space. I know that others have presented this question before me and the response has been that it is not possible to remove the word comment because it is hard-coded. I am hoping that by now, MS Word has remedied this problem and therefore am presenting the question again. |
| Accept Tracked Changes Posted: 14 Aug 2013 02:25 PM PDT Sometimes my sources will insert many pages of text using Track Changes.

How can I select only small parts of a single large insertion to examine and accept? |

| Word 2010: Document treating 1st page as an Even number page Posted: 14 Aug 2013 01:28 PM PDT Hi everyone,
I've formatted a book in MS word 2010 which has many section breaks (some have "different even/odd" or "different first page" headers.) However, given that I have mirrored margins, the first page in the document, which shows as page 1 in the page count, is being treated as an even number, with the gutter on the opposite side from where it should be. I'm guessing this is due to having a "different first page" header at the top.
Is that correct? If so, as I need to have a different header on that page, how can I create a workaround so that page one is treated as an odd page margin-wise???
I'd appreciate any and all suggestions.
Thanks.

| When I close Word 2010, I get the error: "Could not load an object because it is not available on this machine" Posted: 14 Aug 2013 11:35 AM PDT Hi,
I have Office 2010 and when I close the Word I get an error of Microsoft Forms: "Could not load an object because it is not available on this machine".
I've already run the repair application of Office 2010, but it didn't work: the message still appears whenever I close Word.
How can I fix this?
Thanks.

| Renaming a module in Word Posted: 14 Aug 2013 11:11 AM PDT I have created a new module, that contains a few subroutines, in Word but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to rename it to something more sensible (than "Module1". I know I have done this before but a) right-click has no rename option, b) double-click does not open up rename and c) found nothing under the menu system.
A related question: does anyone have an article that outlines the differences between a module and a class module and b) are there some best practices regarding how they interact?
e.g. if I have a bunch of "common" procedures, I take it that it would be best to put these in one module named something like "CommonProcedures" and within that have a bunch of sub procedures? or should I just create one module for each subprocedure (named the same) to make it easy to find the sub procedure...or does it really matter (Word 2007 Help file did not enlighten).
Thanks.

| Word 2010: Table captions sometimes in text boxes, sometimes not. Posted: 14 Aug 2013 10:40 AM PDT Good Day All,
I am using Word 2010. When I add captions to my tables, using Reference/Insert Caption, some captions are created in a text box and some are just in a plain text line. In the same document, both show the style as caption and some are text boxes, others are not.
The biggest problem is that I like to wrap words around my tables and the caption goes in a crazy place (e.g. I select below the table and it is off to the side and I cannot move it.

| Multiple repeating headers Word 2007 Posted: 14 Aug 2013 08:40 AM PDT I have a very large document that has a weird structure. I am trying to figure out how to add footers that can be repeated later in the document with out having to copy paste them in e.g. Section 1 and section 4 would have the same footer, section 2, and section 3 would be different. I already have sections breaks for setting up sections 1, 2 and 3 with separate repeatable headers (each page added to that section has the same footer). It's linking to that first section im wondering if there is an ability to do so. Title page TOC Section 1 (legal jargon footer) Section 2 (Document information footer) Section 3 (notes footer) Section 4 - this needs to repeat the legal jargon footer |
| Auto Editor on MS WORD Posted: 14 Aug 2013 06:49 AM PDT I am looking for a function on MS WORD that I know used to exist but I cant find it and there is nothing on the internet about it to help me. You used to be able to take a 1000 word essay and have WORD auto edit it for you to get the word count down. There was a % slide scale and you could reduce the document by up to 75% I think. It would highlight all the copy it thought could be deleted. It was amazing and clever and worked - the essay still made sense! I need that function now 10 year on......can anyone help me find it? |
| Word Version History is different than Sharepoint Version History Posted: 14 Aug 2013 06:36 AM PDT All, in a Win 7, Word 2010 (although it applies to Word 2007 also) and a SharePoint 2010 environment (Microsoft Azure), I've found that document version history can differ, depending on if the version history is accessed from SharePoint or Word. Specifically, the use of "system account" is viewed in the Word version history and not the SharePoint history. I can explain why "System Account" is present, as Workflows touch the SharePoint documents...BUT, SharePoint doesn't show the "system account" and Word does. SharePoint appropriately shows the last user account who modified the section, thus if a workflow was run by a user it shows that user account (versus Word showing System).
My question is why? I get the aspects of Workflows and how the system account is used, but clearly Word is either querying different sharepoint tables for the document history OR is parsing out different fields of the same result set when displaying the version history information in Word. Assuming that SharePoint is displaying what I believe to be the accurate answer, can you provide insight into exactly what SharePoint API is used by Word and clarify if SharePoint uses that same API for the result? In short, help me understand why they're different.
The Version History facilities we use are out-of-the-box SharePoint/Word stuff. Nothing tailored. Thanks in advance. |
| Hyperlink Problems Posted: 14 Aug 2013 06:02 AM PDT I am creating a CD with multiple documents on it. To give an example these are manuals. There are 300 manuals and each manual has hyperlink reference to each other. So all of these are saved in the same folder and the hyperlinks reference in the same folder. I can get all of the links to work but when I transfer the folder to a disk the links try to stay with the native folder on the drive instead of following the folder onto the CD. Some of links will but some wont. It is placing ../../../../../../ before the filename.

| Image Causing Odd Outcomes Posted: 13 Aug 2013 11:21 PM PDT Hi All
I have a fairly extensive word document with multiple images and so on in it.
Under one of the formatted styles (heading 3) I have inserted an image of a PDF file.
However now when I refresh the Table of Contents the entire inserted image is included in the table of contents. This would be okay I guess if the images were a page or perhaps two I could get creative however the placement is middle of the document and there are 67 pages of these files.
Anyone got some advice how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

| In Word VBA, after Range.InsertParagraphBefore, how to set the style on ONLY the inserted paragraph Posted: 13 Aug 2013 06:58 PM PDT When I run this code, I get almost everything I want, except that both the inserted paragraph and the one after it are set to style=Heading 3. I only want the inserted paragraph set to Heading 3. I can see why it happens --- InsertParagraphBefore extends the range rather than resetting it, which is not what I want.
Sub InsertIndexHeadings()
' INSERT ALPHA HEADINGS IN INDEX
' Go through every paragraph with style=index1 and if its first letter is different from the first letter of the
' previous paragraph, insert a new paragraph with n-dash letter n-dash and set it to style Heading 3.
Dim para As Paragraph
Dim sty As String
Dim first As String
Dim current As String
Dim rng As Range
current = ""
For Each para In ActiveDocument.Paragraphs
sty = para.Style
If sty = "index1" Then
first = UCase(Left(para, 1))
If InStr("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ", first) > 0 Then
If current <> first Then
Set rng = ActiveDocument.Range(start:=para.Range.start, End:=para.Range.End)
With rng
.InsertParagraphBefore
.InsertBefore Chr(150) & first & Chr(150)
.Style = "Heading 3" ' This does not work as desired
End With
current = first
End If
End If
End If
Next para
End Sub

I am using office 365 to manage emails through Microsoft portal and have changed the regional language settings to Australian English, however the spell check still shows words spelled in the UK/Australian way as incorrect and suggests they be changed to US spelling which is incorrect for this country.
Not sure how to get the spell check to use Australian spelling settings?
