How Can I Install Office 2003 on Network?

Posted: 21 May 2005 02:09 PM PDT

You could create a central installation directory by running setup.exe /a on
your 'server' computer and then deploying office to your other computers from
there, you can set all the setup options in this CID to make it easier. look
up the custom installation wizard in office resources. You need the correct
number of licenses though!
You could also deploy office using the win2000\2003 active directory (if
running win2000\20003 server) and 'software installation' using the .msi in
the office directory......in fact there are lots of options available to
you...look up office deployment on m\soft sites.

Mindaugas,
Project will support either hours or minutes in time based fields but
not both. In other words, you will need to enter the duration in hours
and fractional hours or in minutes. To facilitate the conversion of all
Duration values to minutes you can run the built-in macro called "Format
Duration". Go to Tools/Macro/Macros and find "Format Duration" in the
selection list. Then hit "run".

You should be aware that Project calculates all time related data to the
nearest minute so even if a duration is entered as "hours" it is
actually treated as minutes. For example, internally Project stores 1
hour as 60 minutes. The setting suggested by Andrew in his response
applies only to the visual presentation in the view.

Hope this helps.

Carmen,
What type of data are you trying to copy and paste? If it is static data
(i.e. not timescaled from one of the Usage views), you can use the
export map method suggested by Andrew. However, if the data is
timescaled you should try using the "analyze timescaled data in Excel"
add-in/utility found on the Analysis toolbar. A third option is to
develop a VBA macro to export and format the exact data you need. In my
opinion, if you are dealing with timescaled values and need to do the
transfer on a regular basis, a macro is the way to go.

Hope this helps.

Hi ProjectNewbie,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :-)

I can't explain why Project does what it does, but you are assuming a lot!
Firstly, work is done by resources and thus to enter manhours of work
without the man does not make any sense. Equally, entering actual work
without a worker doesn't make sense. Finally, as you have an 8-hour day,
trying to force Project to squeeze 9 hours into 8 hours makes even less
sense. I doubt whether the developers even considered anyone entering such
fallicies :) No, please use Project in the way it was designed and then
post your problems. If you don't know how to enter the details, I strongly
suggest you attend a 2 or 3 day course to get an good inroduction to how it
works. At least have a look at my series on Microsoft Project in the
TechTrax ezine at this site: http://tinyurl.com/2xbhc or this:

Andrew,
I'm not sure what a "bugbear" is but I will assume it is something to
avoid. Actually, MSP does not behave in random fashion. One problem we
humans have with computers is that they tend to behave in exact ways
based on a strict set of rules and that of course is counter to the way
we think (i.e. we are more adaptable and assume a lot of things true or
not). You are correct though that a large plan will likely have many
linkages which can be difficult to manage. Such a plan requires care and
feeding by its human caretaker.

Not true - ASAP means as soone as possible after the project start date, not
the current date. The default placement of tasks to either the project
start date or the current date only applies to the date it will be scheduled
to start when it is first entered into the plan. Once it's there that
setting has no effect and tasks won't be rescheduled simply by opening the

Access Database for MAC

Posted: 23 Jun 2008 02:59 PM PDT

In addition to Mickey's reply, it depends on what it is that you need to do
in the Access file. If you only need to get to the data Excel (as well as
other programs) can be used for that purpose. OTOH, If you need to
create/modfy/use Access objects (such as Forms & Reports) you'll have to go
with what Mickey suggested, except that the products he mentioned don't run
on Power PC Macs - they're Intel only, as is Boot Camp.

On a PPC Mac you need to get Virtual PC 7 w/Windows XP Professional & I
recommend at least 2 gigs of RAM as an absolute minimum - preferably 4 GB if
your system will take it. It's no longer being offered by MS but you can
still get it - Google the web for sources. Just keep in mind that it is not
going to continue working for you if you have any plans to replace your Mac
with an Intel model (although you'd still be able to use your Win XP but
you'd then have to go the Parallels/Fusion/Bootcamp route in place of VPC7 -
or check up on CrossOver, which doesn't require Windows to run PC apps.

Data Merge problem in Mac:Office 2004

Both are of type General. I even deleted the one that wasn't working and
recreated it by placing it next to the one that was working and copying it's
format. That didn't work. I have never seen Fixed format in Excel as a
choice.

Funny thing is when I do a format cell on the field that doesn't work I get
the first line of text in the Sample box, but on the field that does work I
get a series of pound signs i.e., ################, in the Sample box. That
is the only discernable difference.

OneNote for MAC PLEASE!!!

Posted: 14 Jun 2008 09:38 PM PDT

Hi Daiya:

I think the first "feature" Lee would ask for is "Can read and write OneNote
files".

Notebook Layout is not much use to anyone in a collaborative situation until
it can do that :-)

Cheers

Hello,
I'm not sure why you are experiencing all this grief. First of all, make sure that you have of Office 2008 AutoUpdater installed properly and open it to check for updates.
Good luck.

Run "Remove Office" again. Then log into a new User. Go to System

Now, insert your install CD and run. Once you get installed, go back to your
regular user to open and set preferences. Office is installed in the root
application folder. Be sure to update after installing. Entourage will not
open your old Identity until you upgrade to at least 11.3.5.

What version of the OS are you running? If Leopard, have you upgraded?

Note: Restarting after installing will give you best results. Quitting all
applications when installing by log in/out with shift key down will also
result in a cleaner install.

Images/Pictures are too small

Hi Robin,

If I copy just the image it paste okay, however like you, if I copy image
and some text the image doesn't even show up in WordPad. It just shows a
black outline where the image should be and it is small.

Works 8.5 Calendar

Posted: 30 Jan 2006 02:00 PM PST

Thanks for replying Six Million Dollar Man,

Apparently, I didn't make my need clear enough in my initial post so let me
restate it. The typed-in appointments in my Works calendar PRINT very tiny.
How can I make the font PRINT larger? I know most of the tricks to enlarge
the font on the display, but that doesn't address the PRINTING issue.

Is there a way to reset the calendar?

Posted: 26 Jan 2006 10:39 AM PST

Hi,

At this time I am on a WindowsMe operating system, Mswkscal.wcd, on this
system it is located C:\WINDOWS\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Works.

The Application Data folder is hidden on Windows XP.

First you have to show hidden files.

Go to Control panel and open Folder Options or open My Documents, choose
Tools on the menu bar, then choose Folder Options on it's menu. Either way
opens the Folder Options window. Choose the View tab then tick "Show hidden
files and folders", click OK.

Search for Mswkscal.wcd, there may be an option to search in hidden folders,
assure it is selected.

After locating the location of Mswkscal.wcd, rename it Mswkscal.old.

Open calendar, if you receive a message that files are missing, you have
located the correct file.

Locate Mswkscal.wcd on your installation disk and copy it to the same folder
as Mswkscal.old.

After copying, right click Mswkscal.wcd and assure "Read Only" is not
checked, sometimes when copying it becomes read only.

Open calendar, if all is okay you can delete Mswkscal.old,

Hope this helps,
Ken
