Microsoft Word - Is Word RT able to track changes?

Microsoft Word - Is Word RT able to track changes?


Is Word RT able to track changes?

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 03:07 PM PDT

I am researching the feasibility of doing my editing on a tablet and was wondering if any of you could tell me about the functionality of the editing capabilities of the Microsoft Word RT version. For instance, is it equivalent to the full Word version and able to do formatting changes, track changes and add notes?

Thanks!

MS Office Home and Student 2010 Error 1920 Configuration pop up

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 02:35 PM PDT

My daughter just started school and all of a sudden when selecting MS Office documents, Office try's to configure and install when we had installed years ago. Why this is popping up I have no idea. We cant use Office when we invested in this years ago. I do not have original disks or product key. Extremely frustrating when daughter cant use MS Office now. Called Microsoft as this was probably due to their updates (no other reason or thing we did). They turned off services and had me try to "repair". I received the same error - 1920: Service Office Software Protection Platform(OSPPSVC) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services. Set-up failed - Rolling back changes. Microsoft service tried to log in remotely and for some reason that did not work. Interesting? After the "repair" failed, I have another call into Microsoft. Anyone else have suggestions. This is very frustrated as I have spent hours on this and my daughter is just trying to start doing her high school work. She has to borrow our other computer. Any help is requested? I just want MS Office 2010 to stop trying to install when we had this installed before - Brian

Why is it called font when it is really typeface?

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 01:39 PM PDT

When you list the option to change the "font," I believe that this is incorrect.  It should in reality be "change the typeface," since it is the design of the letters, and not the source of them.  Just saying.

Office 2003 and 2007 on 1 PC ....

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 12:56 PM PDT

Hi,

We were using 2003 in the company - now we're going to a hosted Exchange Server on-line.
Because of that I had to upgrade everyone to 2007 for Outlook and Word.

One guy hates 2007 and the ribbon toolbar - OK, fine use Word 2003.

He's got the 2003 icon pinned to the start bar on his Win 7 desktop and if he clicks on it normally, it launches Word 2003 just fine.
If he r.clicks it and picks a document to open, it unfortunately starts up Word 2007 - how can I fix it so it only opens the doc in Word 2003 only?

We'll still want Word 2007 on the PC and available if he needs it.  We just want 2003 to be the go to version.

Cheers'
Brian

Text cut off although line spacing is sufficient

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 11:42 AM PDT

We are printing a dictionary. The defined words are Arial 6 pt.; the definitions are MSReferenceSansSerif 5.5 pt. The line spacing is set to Exactly 6 pt.

 

Although it appears that there is sufficient space for the descenders (parts of the letters that drop below the line) and on screen it appears fine, some of the letter is not printing. I do not want to change the line spacing to single because that would significantly increase the size of the document.

 

Can you help solve this?

 

TIA

Document Displays Differently on Other Computers

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 11:37 AM PDT

I'm having an issue with a document I created. The purpose of the document is to be a proposal template for multiple people at our company to use. I've formatted it just the way it needs to be and it looks great on my computer but when I send it to the other people who will be using it, the text displays differently than on my computer. We all have the same font installed, so I know it's not trying to use a replacement font. Actually, if I look at the document when it's open on another computer, the text that's displaying funny is the exact same font, size, and same spacing between lines so I can't for the life of me figure out why it looks so different. It's very important that it's consistent throughout the whole company but I'm not sure how to accomplish that.  I'm familiar with Word but only on a pretty basic level.

















Formats in IF statements

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 11:12 AM PDT

The problem is I can not seem to add the date format to the IF statement, Any help would be appreciated

WORD 2007: How to insert in the TOC the total number of pages of the document excluding the Annexes

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 10:59 AM PDT

Let me first put you in the picture:

 

When I prepare a complex document (Technical Specification, Project,etc.) I have format changes so I have to insert new sections, sometimes with different Header & Footer (for instance when I have to change the page format from vertical to horizontal, etc.

 

Additional to that, at the end of the document I have to add several Annexes (very one in a different section). Some of the Annexes have to include plain paper (sometimes scanned) documents. Then is not possible that Word knows the total number of pages of that Annex, so we have to do that manually within the Header & Footer area.

 

Due to this problem of unknown number of pages, we would like to number the TOC pages not as the set the total number of pages at the last page of the document before the Annexes start. This should include all the existing sections of the document before the Annexes sections.

 

Is that possible in Word 2007? I handle the idea of adding the number of pages of every section that I want to include but I don't know if that's feasible (for instance using VBA). I didn't find out the way to do that in the TOC (neither in any other part of the document). The only way I find is to split the document (Annexes in a separate document).

 

Is that possible in Word 2010 or 2013?

 

Thank you very much in advance.

 

Kind regards

WLM blocks attachments after September 2013 updates

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 09:47 AM PDT

Your reply to my question referring me to your response to other queries about being unable to open Word files after September 2013 updates confirms what I had already discovered in order to access both Word and Excel files stored on my computer. What it doesn't answer, however, is why I have now had to untick the "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus" box in Windows Live Mail in order to be able to open or save Word or Excel files attached to emails.

Do you have an answer to this problem. Prior to the September 2013 update, I always had this box ticked. Surely Windows Live Mail should not regard Microsoft Word and Excel files as dangerous.

Is there some setting that will cause a newly-opened document to display at "fit page" size? Right now, it seems to open at "fit width", and that works out to about 143%, which is much too large.

Word 2010 - Automatic Numbering cannot be reset to start new list

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 08:34 AM PDT

I have a style that includes a numbered list that has been working well for some time, recently however, I am unable to start a new listing when I use this style.  In previous cases, I simply right-clicked and clicked on "Restart at 1", and I had a new list - just what I wanted.

 

Now however, this feature no longer works, not even when I do the full drill down to the numbering menu and manually insert the level number.

 

I have tried adding section breaks, page breaks, and different styles in between, nothing seems to work.

 

Any ideas how to fix this?

intermittent inability to save Word2010 document

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 04:46 AM PDT

Windows XP, SP3

I've had this for a few weeks and have tried most things on the Internet. Usually, Save  works OK , but sometimes it says it can't save it and I have to use Save As to desktop.  The messages are different at different times - close the drive, network problems etc - all unrelated to what I'm doing

I've removed the addins Finereader and TBRun9.dot (but not Autotext) from Startup - though I've just noticed now they have come back in Startup (but not in the Addin list in Word Options). 
I've renamed normal.dotm template Abnormal.dot and let it remake it - all my customized stuff was still present (don't know if this is normal).
I did a repair from the CD (it changed the font in my normal.dotm). 
None of this makes any difference. 
The files are not read only etc.

Also, I don't get any autosave file and no change to the last backup file - Autosave is set to 5 min and Keep autosaves if I exit without saving, while Save is set to Always create backup and Allow background saves.

If I try to open the last backup (today, a backup from 8 days ago, after I'd already worked on the file itself for 30 min today), it says it's in use by someone else and the only way I can get it to open is to reboot the computer - closing Word alone has no effect.

Any ideas


Save as docm instead of docx as default?

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 04:29 AM PDT

In a previous thread (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-word/how-do-i-get-macros-to-be-included-in-the/937914d1-8e09-42ea-974e-69b026584841) I received great help to understand about macros and templates and how to distribute them. However, getting this to work was easier said then done and the macro problems persist. People not always remember to install the correct templates on their computers, and even if they do remember, changed template names create problems since old documents based on old templates "look for" templates that are obsolete and have been removed.

If I understand things correctly, a docm file can hold macro code. My assumption is: if documents based on a dotm template are saved as docm, the macros are included in the docm file and the files do not require the templates to be installed in a predetermined location. Is my assumption correct?

If it is correct, is there a way to make Word save all files based on dotm templates as docm, not as docx as default? It would good to have this behaviour as default when a user selects "Save" after having double-clicked on a template. I could include this step in the Writer's instructions, but not all users care to read instructions.

Lars

How to make monospaced fonts work with mixed bold and non-bold characters?

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 04:00 AM PDT

I'm writing a programming tutorial that includes several source code samples, and I'd like to use monospaced (fixed-width) fonts. When I paste the source code, it comes nicely formatted from my IDE (Eclipse). However, even though I'm using monospaced fonts, the caracters don't align vertically. You can see an example in the image below: inside the red rectangle, the top line has only 3 characters, but it takes up almos the same width as the line below, which has blank spaces. 


The reason (I suppose) is that bold characters are wider than regular characters (which is not what I expected, since the font is monospaced). I've tried Consolas, Courier New and Lucida Console, although my real intent is to use DejaVu Sans Mono.

Is there a way to make monospaced fonts have a constant width for any character, regardless of being bold or not?

Thanks!


Text Boundaries Autofit in MS Word 2007

I am using MS Word 2007 on a Windows 7 system.

There's a word file, the text boundaries are displayed, and the size autofit the text.

Normally these boundaries should be expand the whole page.

I only find the show/hide option, this problem only occurs on this document.

 

How do I disable the autofit function?

Conversion of Excel & Word Starter 2010 files by Microsoft without Warning or Notice

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 01:12 AM PDT

Sometime within the past week, all of my Excel spreadsheets & workbooks as well as all of my Word documents had their icons converted (and perhaps their file extensions -- I'm not sure) so that not one of them can be opened directly with a double-click.  When this is attempted, a dialog box pops up stating that the program needed to open the files is not installed on my computer and offers me the option of purchasing a new Office program.

 

My PC is a HP Desktop with Windows 7 Home Premium, which included the Microsoft Office Starter 2010 program at purchase.  I have discovered that I do in fact still have Word & Excel Starter 2010 programs on my computer.  But apparently, I must open those programs first now, and then search for the specific document or spreadsheet I want to open from inside the programs.

 

I am flabbergasted that Microsoft could or would do this with no apparent reason or seemingly good cause.  I would like to know the reason for this and how this can even be legal!!

 

UPDATE:

I just discovered that I received automatic updates form Windows on 9/12/13 which included one for Microsoft Office 2010.  After looking at the online support for the update, I was unable to determine exactly what the update was supposed to do or how it might effect the Office Starter 2010 programs I am using, so I uninstalled it.  I am happy to say that the problem with my documents is now solved. 

 

I do have one concern remaining however, and that is:  will the Windows automatic updates attempt to reinstall this update in the future since it will find that it is not installed on my PC any longer?  I really don't want to go through this headache again!

Recovering previous versions of TEMP files that have been overridden by reopening attachment

Posted: 18 Sep 2013 12:38 AM PDT

So typical story, I opened a document from an email attachment, started working from it without saving it to any specific location, then just clicked "Save" and closed it. When I realized what I had done, I knew that I needed to retrieve it from my Temp folder, but I could not remember how to access the Temp folder, and remembered a previous post that had instructed me to open an attachment, go to the Properties, and look at the file location. I did so, choosing to reopen the same attachment from the original email I started working from. I successful found the Temp folder and the file...BUT I FOUND THE NEW FILE I HAD JUST OPENED, not the one I spent hours working on! I found the following article from Microsoft, which says that when Word create a temporary file, it deletes the previous version of the document. I made a huge mistake in re-opening the same attachment, because now there is only one version of the document! In the past I've seen files that get reopened several times numbered, but this time it seems previous versions just get deleted from the Temp file. Help! Is there any way to recover the Previous Versions of the file that my computer deleted when I reopened the same attachment from my email?

Microsoft Word bought wrong language

Posted: 17 Sep 2013 08:47 PM PDT

When I bought MS Word online, I didn't see that it said Spanish. It doesn't even say that on my invoice! Now it wants to install in Spanish and I can't read a word of it. Is there a way to switch to English when it is installed or do I need to do a return and reorder the English version? I did not buy Office, I only bought Word.

Even worse, there isn't an email address to contact Microsoft and I work during business hours. The last time I called, I was on hold for 20 minutes and I just can't do that with my job. I'm stuck. HELP!

Change footnote style

Posted: 17 Sep 2013 07:31 PM PDT

In Word 2010 I want the footnotes (i.e. the ones at the bottom of the page) to appear with a roman numeral at line height (not superscript) + full stop + tab + followed by the text.  The text itself should be indented, leaving the numeral by itself. So it looks like this:

 

1.(tab)footnote text hjklp[hjklp[]hjkop[]hjophjophjiop[jkop[]gyu9frty890-fgyuiop-drty890cvhjizxdrty78cvhjio0-bnjkop[bnjklp[=bjkop[vbhjkop-oooo

          with the next line of the same footnote starting under the "f" of footnote text in the example. Then followed by footnote No. 2. 

2.(tab)footnote text dfghjkl;ghjkl;jkl;'hjkl;jkl;' m,l;bjopcgui9cfgyu8dfty890-=ghuiop-ghjiop-=hjiop-=hio0-rtyukl;fghjuiop[0vbhgjuio0-hjuio0-hjuio90-

Office Word 2013 freezes and causes BSOD

Posted: 17 Sep 2013 07:12 PM PDT

If I open Word 2013, and then try to close it or save the document, it freezes up. Occasionally, after freezing up, and goes to a BSOD. This only happens when I run Word, other Office products have no issues. I can open and close Word in Safe Mode with no issues. Also, I have no Add-ons activated in Word. I was previously getting this same problem when I had Word 2010 installed, and was hoping that by installing 2013, the issue would resolve. It did not resolve.

Great that works just fine also. Thank You.

Thanks Ken, I have done that now.

Pedantic is good for me, I did not read Rodney’s original post correctly,
and couldn’t find the “copy report output" link, but now all is ok.

Kevin wrote,
In Report Preview Mode, Hold down Alt while holding down the N key.
No good, does nothing unfortunately. Thanks for the advice, I tried Alt+C,
Alt+P also no good.

Rodney wrote,
In MSWorks 4.5a just hold down "pagedown" button whilst in Report Preview

No good for Works8.5 does not scroll, each click advances one page, so 430
clicks gets me to the page that I wanted to Print Preview before Printing, I
was actually only printing out that single page.

Problem-Headers and Footers,
are only showing in PDF’s, which are generated from the Print Preview Page,
using either PDF995 or PDF2Go (aka Virtual PDF printer) the other “copy
report output” to Database, Spreadsheet or Word processor is not giving me
headers or footers.

So for the purpose of quickly going to any report page to preview it, I am
only using PDF’s generated from the Report Preview Page.

Also some big database’s reports won’t copy into Works Word Processor, I
have to use other Word Processor, even with 1GB RAM on the machine, and Works
has been given more allocated memory space than normal, this is a bit too
technical for me.

Bill Gates, Why don’t you just scrap MS Works, and have a Home version of MS
Office with a simple version of Access included. Then a MS Office
Professional for business users. MS Works internals really have not changed
much since 1987 only new GUI’s for each version.

Remember the Rich Kids have Office, the Poor Kids have Works, but the Poor
Kids say but we got Works Database, which is much simpler to use than Access,
so There !

Search disc for words within Works files

Hi Mike, thanks for the information. Was wondering why my WindowsMe
operating system could search wks files where other couldn't.

Guess this is another situation where features are lost when upgrading to a
newer version, similar as to what is happening with Works, many post in this
news group indicate to me that upgrading to a newer version past Works 4.5
is actually a downgrade.

works help feature "file not found" error message

Posted: 22 Dec 2005 07:03 AM PST

I opened a blank Spreadsheet, Works 6.0, clicked Help on the menu bar, then
clicked Works Help. A Works Help dialog box appeared on the right hand side
of the screen.

Another way to get help in most programs is to use the F1 key on the
keyboard, so I tried that. Opened a blank spreadsheet, pushed F1 key, was
greeted with the same Works Help dialog box appearing on the right hand side
of the screen.

Guess, like you mention, perhaps the help feature is not loaded on your PC.

What I would try is to uninstall Works, then reinstall.

PS: the version of works you are using can be found by clicking Help on the
spreadsheet menu bar then clicking About.......

I can't find anything specific on clip art in Works 8.

You mention reinstalling Works. Did you select the Complete Install? I
believe Clip Art is an optional feature.

Also, have you tried the menu item: Insert, Picture?

And under Insert, Object, is Clip Art listed as an available object?

Works Website & Feedback - Repost

Posted: 21 Dec 2005 12:03 AM PST

1. Which versions of Works do you use?

Works 7.0

2. Which Works Applications do you use most frequently and
for what purpose?

Database - for different address lists and word processor for
documents. I also use the spreadsheet to keep track of some loans that I
have.

3. Have you visited the new Works Website recently?

Yes.


4. What topics and templates would you like to see in the future
on the Works Website to enhance your home productivity.

Using formulas in database to improve merge function bugs.

5. ANY other comments you would care to make regarding Works
or the website?

Formatting in merge fields is so buggy that most users would be
discouraged or they don't have the savvy to use formulas in the database to
correct the bugs. The bugs that I am referring to concern Currency and
Date/time values.

Microsoft Works Word Processor ver 6.0 not working

Posted: 18 Dec 2005 06:33 PM PST

Thanks for your suggestion, I thought it would work. But I reinstalled
Microsoft Works and the problem remains. Since it started with the
installation of Front Page 2003 and Office SP2 I'd like to remove both, then
reinstall Front Page without SP2.

But documentation on the Microsoft Support site says I can uninstall SP2
only by uninstalling Microsoft Office 2003.

My problem is I don't have Microsoft Office 2003, only Office Front Page
2003. Will removing that also uninstall SP2? Or will I create more
problems? This is too much for an old man to figure out. Thanks for your
help.

Hi Martin,

That is correct, the formula is contained within a second
companion field.

I understand you to mean that ERR appears for records that
do not contain a value for the telephone number field? If this
is a possibility then the formula should be revised to cater for
such an eventuality. See initial IF in the formula given below:

=IF(Field1="","",IF(Field1>0,"0"&STRING(Field1,0), IF(LEFT(Field1,1)="0",Field1,"0"&Field1)))

Cell Lock

Posted: 13 Dec 2005 09:06 AM PST

From Works Help file :


Cell protection is turned off Starting in Works 6.0 and
Works Suite 2001, the Spreadsheet no longer supports cell
protection. When you open a spreadsheet from a previous
version of Works that contains protected cells, the cells are
no longer protected.


To protect an entire spreadsheet, you can make the spreadsheet read-only.


1. Save the spreadsheet.


2. Open My Documents.


3 Locate the file in the folder where you saved it.


4 Right-click the file name, and then click Properties.


5 Click the General tab.


6 Under Attributes, select the Read-only check box.


7 Click OK.


The entire spreadsheet is protected. You cannot make changes to the
spreadsheet unless you clear the Read-only box.

I would think you could do all of the requirements for a server on one

I've used UW, Courier, and my current fave Dovecot. Dovecot is pretty

Postfix is nice because with one single line added to its main.cf you can
do maildir if you so desire. For mail clients, I would definitely choose
Firefox 1.0 and I would take a look at Thunderbird 1.0.

Problems with dvdauthor - please help.

Posted: 21 Dec 2004 02:36 PM PST

Hi all,

It looks like the video I was trying to write to a DVD did not have
some information in it required by dvdauthor. I looked at the man page
for "mpeg2enc" and the "-f" option states the following:

-f|--format 8
- DVD MPEG-2 for 'dvdauthor'
This version adds special dummy navigation packets into the output
stream that the dvdauthor tool fills in to make a proper .VOB for
authoring. Bit-rate defaults to 7500kbps, buffer sizes to the maximum
permitted by the DVD specification.

This is what was missing in my mpeg file.

I used the "tovid" tool to properly convert my mpeg and it worked! I was
able to successfully get qdvdauthor to make a dvd for me. (mind you,
there were some other big bugs in the qdvdauthor tool that I figured out
how to avoid. :))

However, there was a big drop in quality from the original MPEG video
using "tovid". It reads the mpeg and modifies it. I'm sure I could
optimize all of the settings for mpeg2enc but there are so many and I
know very little about mpeg files.

What I'd like to know is what the "special dummy navigation packets" in
the mpeg file are? If I knew this, I could add them myself without
having to re-process the mpeg file again (and decrease the video quality).



Thanks!
George

P.S. Thank you noi, Wiseguy, and Peter for your help! I really
appreciate it! :)

Change a resource's max availability and see its effect

Posted: 17 Nov 2004 07:32 PM PST

Explaining Jan's answer a bit - FYI, changing max units in the resource
information only sets a new cutoff above which the resource is considered
overallocated and also the default assignment level for new assigments for
the resource. It doesn't go back and change any currently existing
assignments as you've discovered. Leveling only functions to delay one or
more out of a set of conflicting tasks when a resource on them is booked for
a total usagethat is higher than the max allowed for him, resolving the
overallocation. It never changes the assignment level on individual tasks.

assign start dates to tasks

Posted: 17 Nov 2004 11:15 AM PST

If the start date cannot change either forward or backward, put a Must Start
On constraint on Task 1 under each job. FYI - this is contrary to the usual
use of MS Project, which is to determine when the tasks would be able to
take place. Generally speaking you don't tell Project the dates when tasks
will take place; instead, it calculates the schedule based on what needs to
be done, how long each task will take, and when the resources required would
be available and then tells you the dates you can have. But there can be
exceptions where external conditions impose a start or end date and applying
constraints is how they can accomplished in the schedule.

Hi Bobby

personally i agree with you ... but i've learned to live with it - however,
if you've got project 2000 or newer you can "fill down" the project
calendar - so you assign it to the first resource and then just drag down
using the fill handle (little black cross bottom right hand corner of the
cell).

Can I constrain 2 tasks not to occur simultaneously?

Posted: 16 Nov 2004 02:15 PM PST

Ahhh ... simple cost tracking or Earned Value calcs? Hmmm. The machine I'm
on right now has P98 and doesn't know about materials so I can't say.

If you set the resource or material to have a value or rate of $0 then you
shouldn't have an impact on your total costs or on cost variances.

Your schedule variance could be a different matter. But since you're moving
lots of "task groups" (for lack of a better phrase) around you're probably
not concerned about schedule variances, you just want to make certain the
stuff gets done (and whether that's this shift or three shifts from now is
not a driving concern.)

That's the long answer.

Short answer: don't know; try both ways <grin>; report back.

Hi KellyB,
I'm afraid I'm all out of thoughts. I assume you want to show the "split"
(tasks stopping during non-working time) for both the day shift and the night
shift in a single view. As you can only display one non-working time as the
background of your gantt, I don't believe there is a solution. The task usage
view (zoomed in of course) will show the hours for each resource as they are
distributed, but I don't think you'll get want you want from the Gantt.
You could customize the Gantt bars with colors based upon the resource's
base calendars, but that's about all I can come up with.
So sorry.

By filtering for either Resource Group = D or = N, I can create a report for

for its new purpose, edit the fields so that only the ones you want to

Julie,

That would then become a training issue. If you set up a global view
that everyone understands is ONLY to be used for printing for the Sr.
VP, then they should understand that they must not make any changes to
it. I've operated this way at prior companies, and it works well.

Hi parastoo mousavi,
Sorry, after more thought - you will want to modify the "Assignments keeping
outline structure" group to include the Group field (resource) as the first
line. Then you should see what you are looking for.

Hi Claude!

Office 2008's initial release had serious sync problems that have been
getting addressed with subsequent updates.

Be sure that you update Office 2008 to the latest version, 12.1.0, and
if you're running Leopard be sure to update it to the latest available
update, 10.5.3.

Hope this helps!

Another good way to check is to use the Activity Monitor (application found
in the Applications/Utilities folder) If you click on the Disk Usage tab at
the bottom you will see a little circle showing space utilized and space
free.

Regardless of what size your drive is, you need approx. 10% free space. This
is space used by the system. More info:

MacTopia not Posting Issues

Posted: 29 May 2008 12:25 PM PDT

All the posts were new. Basically I was repeatedly posting the same question. As I mentioned at the top of this discussion each post was showing up in "My Account" but not in the Word forum.

All of the post were made to the Word forum.

All of the post were using the same identity.

The reason one of these post eventually succeeded is because I used Diane's suggestion and posted via Entourage.

I hope this info helps your team.

Why is Word 2008 taking soooo looong to open?

Posted: 29 May 2008 07:36 AM PDT

Jeffrey,

Just so you know, you're not alone. Word 2008 has some serious
launching issues on my computer as well. SP1 made it a bit better, and
10.5.3 made it better still, but even so, Word will sometimes take
over 30 seconds to launch on my late model 17" MBP. Evidently, it's an
issue that isn't affecting everyone, but nothing has fixed this issue
completely for me, and it's not widespread enough problem to get any
help from the group (or perhaps others are just more patient than we
are :-). I heard that Office 2008 has some issues with Nvidia GPUs,
and this problem may still be tied into that; I think the Leopard
Graphics Update that came out right after 10.5.2 was the beginning of
the problem, but I didn't have Office 2008 until after that was
released so it's hard for me to be sure. Out of curiosity, are you on
a MBP?

Doug

Question on Installing SP1

Thanks..... I thought it was a combo but wanted to be sure before having
her run the updater. I suggested she download the combo rather than
messing with the MS auto updater. I don't trust the MAU for major
updates. She already has Office 2008 installed and working so we will
skip the reinstall from the CD

I had no problems with SP1 combo updater.

Office 2008 Speed/Issues: Post SP1

Posted: 27 May 2008 09:20 AM PDT

Hi Doug -

You might want to check the Apple Downloads. There are a number of firmware
updates & others that may apply to your system configuration. I can't say
for sure because: my MBP hadn't exhibited the problem, I have applied he
ones appropriate for my config, and I refuse to move from 10.5.0 until Apple
shows me a stable update... Maybe 10.5.3... Or 4... Or 5:-)

I believe that MS is dependent on Apple for this as well, so when it will be
resolved is anyone's guess. I'm not sure what you mean by "a bit now" re SP1
- it was released the 14th of May, and 2 weeks in 'techno-time' amounts to a
fraction of a second in real time:-) I wouldn't even start looking for an
SP2 for another 3 months or expect to see it for another 3 beyond that.
There may be some interims along the way, but anything major is unlikely.

Open Microsoft Office 2007 files Using Mac Software

Posted: 26 May 2008 07:50 AM PDT

Hi Nicolas,

WinOffice 2007 and MacOffice 2008 use the same new file format for
Excel/PPT/Word files, so those should move over (although there are many
features in Word/XL/PPT 2007 that are not supported in Mac 2008, depends
on how complex your files are). Note also that MacOffice does *not*
include Access, Publisher, Visio, etc.

However, you are interested in mail, directory, tasks. Does that mean
you will be moving from Outlook? That's a little more complicated.
Entourage is the Outlook alternative on the Mac, but the two programs
are *not* equivalent. You should start with the information here:
http://www.entourage.mvps.org/cross_platform/win_mac.html

Further questions should be searched/asked in the Entourage newsgroup.
http://www.officeformac.com/ProductForums/Entourage/

It is better to start a NEW thread so that you get information specific
to your issue, than to add on to an existing thread.
