Microsoft Word - Can't get rid of unwanted white space in tables

Microsoft Word - Can't get rid of unwanted white space in tables


Can't get rid of unwanted white space in tables

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 02:46 PM PDT

Word seems to have added some extra white space before and after the text in some of the a cells of a table.  I have the spacing set to 0 before and after for all text, and the line spacing set to single.  If I select all the rows in the table, the blue highlight that indicates selection goes all the way from the top to bottom for some cells, but for other cells there are white stripes above and below the selected text.  If I create a new row, and copy a paste the text into the new row, there are sometimes no white stripes, but I cannot remove the white stripes in the rows that already have them.  What is going on?

Change document size from A 4 to A5

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 01:45 PM PDT

Suzanne, I have originated a doc  (Word 2010) as A4 but I want to save a copy as A5 so that when it is attached to an e mail it will print as A5. When I try to save the doc as A5 from its original A4 it splits the doc across two pages (ish).  How do I change the size of an existing doc (in this case A4->A5)? Thanks for any help.

Word 2007 watermark issue in Windows 7

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 12:54 PM PDT

Hi folks,

I have a word document with a image (png file) as watermark. I'm able to view the file correctly but every time my watermark is not printed.
I've lost two days searching around the web for any answers to this problem. I tried everything I've found in any forums. 99% of tips refers to going on the Print Options and check the Print Colors and background.

But here is what I've tried so far:
  1. Created a blank file, inserted a watermark and tried to print (Machine Win7 and Office 2007) ->Nothing happens.
  2. Same as 1, but using now a Windows XP and Office 2007 -> It prints OK.
  3. File created in 1, printed on XP machine -> It goes OK.
  4. File created in 2, printed on Win7 machine -> Nothing happens.

I did compare the word's options in both computers. Turned them to be equal. I also tried a second machine with Win7 and got the same results.

All this machines are using the same printer.

Both Win7 machines are 64bit. Windows XP machine is 32bit.


Has anyone seen a problem like this before?

Is there any related bug?

I'm very inclinated to think that there is some kind of bug related only with Win7 + Office 2007, so far.

Is there anyway to have the text that is "bookmarked" display shaded or italicized only when the hyperlink is clicked?

Map ribbon buttons to other tasks?

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 12:09 PM PDT

Because of an XML schema that our organization uses, we need to use the <Strong> style instead of Bold and the <Emphasis> style instead of Italic. It's a snap to map Ctrl-I to <Emphasis> and Ctrl-B to <Bold>

Is there a way to make the same thing happens when using the Bold and Italic buttons in the Home ribbon?

Fill multiple fields in multiple word files using fields from one file

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 10:17 AM PDT

Hey guys,
since I got lots of editing to do (same stuff over multiple projects) I'm looking for a way to edit one file (word file) and replace the fields I need over multiple files, where are names and numbers and addresses and so on. So I was thinking about a "way" to do this but I don't know how to do it :D
Example:
I want to have one file containing the name, address, receipt number, ID card, etc., fields that I need in 6-7 word files containing one, two or more fields that need to appear in each, preferably without opening them (but it's not a must).
Is this possible somehow? Or can I do something similar that can satisfy my needs? 


word 2010 macro to conditionally format a paragrah

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 10:15 AM PDT

Let me preface this with the fact that I am using windows 7, office 2010, and I am using a workstation on a network with severe administrative limitations.

So- I have a template with a form on the last page that completely automates the process of a business letter (with regards to content) using text form fields, IF fields, ref fields, and a whole plethora of bookmarks. However, I have one last piece of automation that I cannot do.

Due to the IF fields having widely different amounts of characters depending on whether the true or false text is displayed, there are many variables in the actual output, which causes the final product to either: a) fit on a single page, or b) spill onto page 2. Of course, the simple answer is to unlock the document, and manually insert a page break before the paragraph. However, the users I am creating this for are very simple end users and I want to make the process completely automated and "idiot proof" if you will.

What I need is a macro that would do something like this:
(IF any "paragraph" = spans 2 pages, THEN insert pagebreak before)

I don't know visual basic very well though and the last time I learned to code was HTML in notepad haha. Can anyone help me? Thank you in advance!

How do you post pictures on to a Word Document - tried adjusting Advanced options to no avail -

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 09:43 AM PDT

I am currently having trouble copying and posting pictures and some other content that is on the internet or from other documents in some cases.

 

I have tried looking at the website on the short video's on how to and also "Googled' the troubleshooting options.

 

I do not like to keep changing the format of the advanced options as then when it comes to the next document - I am faced with another issue.

 

I have been making do by saving the picture by itself and then inserting the picture that way. I am not sure if it is my fault.

 

Some people on here are very cruel and will tell me it is just the same as the red square you receive. I just want the ease to copy and paste with the picture included.

 

If some one could just let me know if I have it set up correctly.

 

 

Thank you

 

 

 

Copying pictures and pasting them with ctrl + v

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 09:31 AM PDT

Hi,

    

I have a problem in copying pictures from the internet. When I go to look for pictures on any site and then try to copy one, it doesn't get pasted in the word document/One Note/Powerpoint file(only if I right-click with the mouse and then select paste picture, the picture gets pasted, but not when I use the short-cut : ctrl + v) . I don't remember changing any settings. Please help.



Two problems with endnotes

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 09:17 AM PDT

I am using Word 2010.

 

I have two issues regarding endnotes that I cannot resolve.

 

Here are two example endnotes.

 

1        some text here which is justified

 

2        a long sentence here which is justified and will move to the next line

like this

 

I want the space between each number and the text to be the same.  The problem if I do it manually is that - because the endnotes are justified - the space between the number and the text is not identical.

 

Is there a way to automatically set the same spacing?

 

Also, before the endnotes I have a heading like so.

 

NOTES

[space]

[space]

[space]

1         some text here

 

How can I remove the spaces?  They are not actually spaces so I cannot place the curser on them.

 

Thanks!

Word pointer/cursor

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 08:24 AM PDT

Windows 7 with all updates.  Set up the mouse cursor/pointer to be an extra large black cursor pointing slightly to the left. Works fine in all programs except Word where the cursor reverts back to to a tiny white cursor pointing slightly to the right.  In PowerPoint and Access the cursor does not change from extra large black to tiny white.  How can Word be modified to use the same cursor color, size and shape as in the rest of Windows 7?

Digitially signing a Word 2007 Document

In our office, we all digitally sign documents.  Usually this is done without an issue.  Now two co-workers receive the error message - This document could not be unprotected.  Please use Tools/Unprotect document and continue with signing approval process.  The document is password protected so that colleagues can fill in the blanks and use drop down menus when necessary.  No one else has an issue signing the same document.  I've tried saving as a Word 1997-2003 document and that didn't work either.  I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the ApproveIt tab, but same results.  Anyone else experiencing the same issue?

How to transfer autocorrect/autotext from word 2003 to word 2007

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 06:50 AM PDT

Hello!

 

I am begrudingly having to give up my laptop, which utilizes Windows XP Pro with Word 2003, and move over to a PC, which utilizes Windows 7 Home Premium. How can I transfer my five years of autocorrect/autotext entries from Word 2003 to Word 2007? If this cannot be done, can you tell me at least how to print a list of my shortcuts so I can manually enter them into Word 2007? I am a medical transcriptionist and have six years of shortcuts that I do not want to lose.

 

Thanks so much for your guidance!

Copy formatted TOC to separate document?

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 06:46 AM PDT

I need to make a separate, formatted, stand-alone copy of the TOC for a long document, but, as I understand it, I first need to remove the field codes so that broken hyperlinks don't create error messages where the page numbers should be.

Problem is that when I try Ctrl+Shift+F9 (which should remove the field codes?) it doesn't seem to have any effect and the field codes all remain unaltered.

What is particularly frustrating is that I did somehow manage (yesterday!) to copy the TOC successfully - and email it to someone - but I can't for the life of me now work out how I did it. Meantime I've been asked to add a further level of headings to the TOC, and the new TOC defies all my attempts to copy it.

alt f9 view field codes not working

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 06:28 AM PDT

Hi can somebody help me please?

 

The Alt F9 shortcut - ViewFieldCodes is not working in Word.

 

I have reset the keyboard shortcuts within Word even though the ViewFieldCodes was showing ALT F9 as the shortcut keys.

 

Both Alt and the F9 key work for other shortcuts e.g. Alt F11 works and Shift F9 works.  It just appears to be the combination of ALT + F9 key that doesn't. 

 

It doesn't work on my laptop keyboard nor does it work if I plug a keyboard in.

 

Any ideas please as I use the toggle fields option.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

thanks.

I cant transfer information from one computer to the other because of permission problems

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 04:43 AM PDT

I use two computers and have an external hard-drive which automatically backs up all changes made to each respective computer.

 

 I have WD Smartware on both computers so in theory  I should be able to retrieve any information saved on either computer and transfer it to the other. This works OK one way but not the other as I am getting access denied due to permissions on one computer. 

 

 I can't see how to change the permissions on the computer concerned.  If I look at all the files on both computers the 'system' line is highlighted with the blue colour and then all the permission boxes are ticked so both computers seem to have full system permission but I can only presume there must be somewhere to change the default security setting .

 

I had a look at adding the name of the computer that doesn't seem to be able to open the files but the system on the computer that is locking the files didn't seem to like the name that I tried to put on.  (I copy and pasted the name that the computer has as the option on the external hard-drive).

 

I don't really know what I am doing and I have spent days reading lots of answers on the support pages to get this far but now I seem to have drawn a blank.

 

Can someone help me please!

How to adapt an existing document with multilevel numbering?

Office cannot open email attachments or saved files.

Posted: 03 Oct 2013 01:09 AM PDT

I cannot open Office email attachments in Word, Excel or anything else. I get an error message saying 'Something Went Wrong. We couldn't start your program.' If I open up Word or Excel, I can find the file to open through downloads but it is a hassle. How can I fix the problem so that I can open attachments straight from email?

Also, if I have a saved Office file on my computer I cannot open it without opening up the individual program first and doing it through that e.g. open Word first and then open the Word file. How can I fix this?

I'd appreciate any help.

Can't open Word files from documents themselves

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 11:40 PM PDT

Hi All

I'm working with the Office 2013 suite. Recently I have come across a problem whereby I cannot open directly a Word (or Excel etc) file. If I double-click on a file, I get an error message, which says "The converter failed to save the file". The file will open BUT it is a [read only] [compatibility mode] document with a file name such as wd0000084 and it can only be saved by using Save As. 

I can work around this by opening the same file from within Word (i.e. opening Word, then navigating to the file and opening it). Not ideal.

Any suggestions on how I can sort out these issues?

Many thanks
Lesley

In Word how can I suppress a duplicate date field?

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 10:40 PM PDT

Hi There

 

Can anyone assist?

 

I have created a contract document which states the event date at the top

Event_StartDate - Event_End Date

However if the event is only a one day duration the date is duplicated eg. Thursday 3 October, 2013 - Thursday 3 October, 2013

 

Can anyone advise the conditional statement so that the start and end date display IF they are different, however if the date is the same then suppress?

 

I've been mucking around with this for ages and can't find the right commands.

 

Thanks in advance

When I go into word, it tells me to activate it and it asks me for my e-mail address.  I type in my university e-mail, and it says it could not be found. I then try my hotmail account e-mail, and it asks me for the password, and after that it says it isn't associated with this account, and to sign in with the account associated with my product. I got both my computer and office from my college bookstore, so it should be legit. But yet it says its an unlicensed product and I can't use it to its full functionality until it's activated.

MS Word Spacing

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 05:01 PM PDT

Hi Microsoft Community,

I want to know how to stop MS Word from adding extra space between texts in a sentence, in certain paragraphs.

I'm not looking to adjust the space between paragraphs but rather the space between texts in a sentence that seem to magically create itself.

Can you tell me why this may be happening and how I can fix it?

Thanks in advance.

2010/4/22 jonathon <com>: 

Since the unicode for the ° seems to be b0 (hex) and since the op
seems to use Ubuntu, I think the easiest thing to do is either to do
the Ctrl+Shift+u b0 Enter thing, or the Compose key o o thing. The
Ctrl+Shift+u thing works out of the box, while the Compose key thing
perhaps needs you to do some easy settings, like deciding which key is
the compose key. I use Caps Lock for it, since it's a totally useless
key anyway. So in my case I press Caps Lock, release it, then press o
twice. Then the ° appears. Caps Lock o c gives a ©, Caps Lock % o
gives a ‰ and so on. To set which key is the compose key, click
[System â†' Preferences â†' Keyboard â†' Layouts â†' Layout options… â†'
Position for the Compose key] (or something like that â€" I have the
Swedish version of Ubuntu so I just translated from Swedish).

If the contained value is available as a "spellcheck" type option, it
could be used here, too. They wouldn't have to accept the value, but
they could see it.
 

I think so -- something like "This spreadsheet was prepared by an
application that does not conform to the [projected] Open Formula
standard. Some issues with formulas are likely."

All this is just my half-cent's worth (I certainly won't claim two
cents, I'm a very low-level user of spreadsheets!). But anything we can
reasonably do to improve interoperability, while making it clear where
the problem actually lies, seems like a "good thing" to me.

[discuss] OpenOffice.org and OpenDocument Format

Posted: 15 Apr 2010 04:16 AM PDT

ReHi Everybody:

I have been using Oo for some years, often in non-profit environments. I use
it in English, French and Spanish. I also like Lars' comments about the
competitive aspect of Oo and its competitors.

Ideally the open source concept also stands for the moral principal that
over-competition or under competition in any market are undesirable.

Since I love language and cultural diversity, I am happy to see Oo support
as many languages as possible, which makes me also think of the languages of
our diversity of native North Americans.

I often say to people around here: "When you live in Montreal, you don't
have to spend money to get on an airplane, the whole world is at our
doorstep - 50 or more languages in a day!"

Culturally, it also reminds me of the reason why Gloria Estafan put out her
CD "Abriendo Puertas" - as a protest against all of the petty linguistic
pride (orgullo, or condescending pride) between different Spanish-speaking
countries and their different dialects. The CD won a Grammy, and Kudos!

When, from Canada, I think about smaller and/or less fortunate countries who
have adopted Oo, and the ISO approval for the open formats, I think this is
global progress. < Qu'on se le dise.>

In my 4 years in Toastmasters, I have also used these 3 Languages in my
speeches a number of times to make a point.

I also use Oo in Linux (Fedora 12) and do a lot with Oo Draw and its CADoo
add-on.

Typically, I save in Open format first, then resave in the MS format, and/or
as a .PDF, as many of my circle of people communicate from employers'
computers where they are not free to install anything more than they are
given.

Since I also own a Hewlett-Packard iPAQ, for that I am forced to export to
MS or .PDF, as that device uses Windows Mobile 5. Eventually I will phase
that device out for a number of reasons.

Sometimes when Vector graphics (such as Oo Draw are involved) I find it is
better to print to a Ghostscript printer driver to get the .PDF, but
generally from an .ODT, the built-in works better.

Cheers, everybody!

Bruce Martin.

It looks to me like the idea is to ensure that it is as simple and clear
as possible to keep the original as ODF.

The save / save as dialogs regarding the format are also a bit unclear,
but I have not thought of any better alternative to the wording we
currently have.

And since this is a discussion, one of the monopolies we are having
problems with is the monopoly on office formats. Steering people away
from ODF helps re-inforces that monopoly, making it harder to use OOo.
It also increases the revenue available to our competition, because
having a monopoly results (or is defined by) being able to set the
prices far above the proper market value.

Essentially you are using a focused XML validator. This is correct. But
Microsoft has by their own stated yardstick broken interoperability[1] which

of a loophole. All other implementations substantially conform with each
other where practical. Future versions of ODF will not be compatible with
this Microsoft joke. It employs a known strategy of Microsofts which is
thankfully being increasingly recognised (see "Embrace, Extend and

Therefore i recommend that what the Validator should do is flag Microsoft's
vindictive implementation with a suitable warning about lack of inter-

irresponsible.
 

Not being able to speak either on behalf of the Committee or Oracle/Sun but i

there is a either a submarine patent or one of Microsofts own patents held on
something involved in Excels ODF formulas. Microsoft's OOXML promise not to
sue may not even extend to ODF. See the recent i4i case as a reference[3].

It has been made patently aware that Microsoft are not willing to conform to
International Standards even of their own making unless they are forced to.
Office 2010 will not be supporting the full ISO OOXML implementation as
expected and thus the standard is now in doubt with no supporting
implementations. Refer if you will to the Blog of Alex Brown the convener of
the BRM meeting which forced this standard through[4]. Alex's stand is very
surprising given he was seen as a warm supporter of Microsoft during the ISO
standardisation process. Also read the apologist statement of Doug Mahugh on
this sad issue[5].

MS Office 2013 Spell Check not working though Proofing Options are correct

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 02:56 PM PDT

My Spell Check on Word 2013 suddenly stopped working mid-way through my writing assignment. I go to highlight words to be checked 
and a dialogue box pops up saying "Spelling and Grammar check is complete. You are good to go!" when there are clearly errors in my writing whether it is spelling or grammar related. The spell check is skipping right over them and telling me it is completed and corrected. I went to the Proofing options under the file tab and have everything selected that is necessary for it work. It's been getting frustrating and I am trying to figure out why it won't successfully be applied to my document!

Word 2013 Not Turning Hyperlinks into Clickable links

Add x number of rows to a table

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 01:59 PM PDT

I have an existing table with a small number of rows, and need to add a large number of new rows.  If I right click and select insert rows, it adds only 1 row at a time (or however many existing rows I highlight).  How can I tell it I want to add a certain (large) number of rows all at once (ideally by typing in the number at some point)?  Note, I need to add more rows than I already have, so I can't just highlight more rows before right-clicking.  I seem to remember being able to do this in earlier versions of word, but maybe I am misremembering

Translating

My question is once it is there is there a way for me to get the spanish version in a word document that is set up in the same format as the english version? I do not want to have to copy and paste the Spanish version into a word document in order to keep the format the same. Does anyone know how I can do this or if it is even possible? 
 

How to insert different type pages numbers on different pages in one document?

How to insert different type pages numbers on different pages in one document?

Document sometimes open to display tracking and sometimes does not.

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 12:51 PM PDT

Brand new image on corporate network of Windows 7 & Office 2010. The user worked with a Track changes document, attached document to an email and sent it. Recipient reports the doc opened and displayed the tracking - as expected. No problem.

The original user went to her sent items and opened the attachment - it opened in Display Final view instead of the expected Final Showing Markup. She freaked out.

WHY would it be a different default view setting simply because the copy was opened from a sent message? It opens displaying the changes off the server just fine. 

Hidden text does not stay hidden

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 11:07 AM PDT

Folks,

 

I cannot get hidden text to stay hidden. 

 

If I mark text as hidden, and do File>Options>Display and clear Hidden Text and Always show formatting Marks, the text vanishes.

 

 After I re-start word, the hidden text is visible again.

 

Note:  I am running word 2010 as part of mypc, inside a company's network.  I have no pc, just a thin client.

 

I can see where the templates are located.

C:\Users\<me>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates

 

The "Help" desk here is clueless.  They said they would look into it. 

 

Does anyone here have any ideas?

 

Thanks.

If the text box is copied from the "from.doc" to the "to.doc", the format is changed. Why ?

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 10:54 AM PDT

If the text box is copied from the "from.doc" to the "to.doc", the format of the text box is changed. Specifically, the FirstLineIndent and the LineSpacing are changed. I am confused why would this happen ? 

Because the format can be kept if I paste it into other files, I am wondering what is so special about this "to.doc" ?

PS1: There are many text boxes to be copy-paste. I want to avoid manual changing format of the text boxes afterwards.

PS2: The "from.doc" and "to.doc" contains great amount of other information. I want to avoid transferring their content to a fresh Word file.

Any insight is appreciated !

Customize Word 2010 footnote formatting

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 10:29 AM PDT

Is it possible to customize Word 2010's footnote formatting so that Word uses 1) a superscripted footnote marker in the text (default format) with 2) a non-superscripted footnote marker followed by a period (e.g., "1.") in the footnote? Here's a picture of what I'm trying to do:

Word 2010 Equation Editor not working since last update

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 10:11 AM PDT

At least one month ago Word 2010 Equation Editor was working fine. Now (10/3/2013) when I try to create a new equation in a new document and use the pull-down for fractions all of the available options are blank. The same holds true for all of the other pull-downs except for the one that has complete equations as a number of choices.
I have perused similar question from others that are more than a year old and I noticed that no solution has been posted by anyone.


can I keep a style while I am typing in Microsoft word?

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 09:36 AM PDT

I have been using Styles while preparing a report. What I found is that when I was using a specific style, for instance "Heading1" and press Enter, and then the the style of the new line, in which I would start to type, became "Normal". Is there any way that I can keep the previous style? For example, it is possible for me to do when I use PowerPoint (in which I use "tab" or "alt+tab" to change the level.

Macros disappear; not every time I close but often enough!

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 05:06 AM PDT

So the fact that my macros work fine  most of the time after reopening Word  and then suddenly drop out altogethe,r for no apparent reason is curious.  More so when you consider that other templated features like Quick Parts remain in tact after closing and reopening. 
I have copied the macro text out of Visual Basic so at least I have backup.
Its a problem that's been bugging me for years (over several versions of WOrd) and would be grateful if there is a simple solution!

Word 2013 crashes when trying to open file from internet

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 04:31 AM PDT

Hi all,

I am having lots of problems opening files from Outlook. Initially, files would open in protected mode, which was annoying and useless. As soon as I wanted to edit the file, I would click "enable editing" and word would crash. Then I disabled Protected mode for all internet / email files. Now whenever i try to open any word file from any email client, it crashes instantly. Even if I save the file, then through properties "unblock" the file, then try to open it, it still crashes. This basically makes word useless to me as I work from home, so I constantly need to use files "from the internet" (in otherwords, from my colleagues...)

What can I do to prevent this - it is making work impossible for me!

how can I install helvetica font?

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 01:49 AM PDT

I purchased office 2013 only to realise Helvetica is not pre-installed.

Where do I find and install Helvetica font for free? Preferrably free. If it has to be paid please give me the link too.

How do I then install it? Steps to install it.

How about Cambria and Calibri? where do I get these fonts? I do not have previous office installed. Only 2013 office. Will these fonts appear for all office apps-excel, word etc once installed?

Thanks in advance.

Copy exact fill color between shapes and table-cell or paragraph shading

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 01:18 AM PDT

I often need to match colors between of various document elements, including table cells, paragraph shading, and shapes. It's tedious to dig down to the RGB dialog dozens of times so I'm trying to automate it with VBA. However, I can consistently store-and-retrieve colors only between table cells and paragraphs. For shapes, it's always a crapshoot -- sometimes it works, other times I get gray or black, and it doesn't seem to matter which "direction," that is, whether trying to color a paragraph or table cell like an existing shape, or trying to color the shape to match a paragraph or table cell.

 

Clear as mud? Code snippets below:

 

Why do these always work....

 

      MyColor = oCell.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor

      oPara.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor = MyColor

 

      MyColor = oPara.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor

      oCell.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor = MyColor

 

but these only sometimes work?

 

      MyColor = oShape.Fill.ForeColor

      oPara.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor = MyColor

 

      MyColor = oPara.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor

      oShape.Fill.ForeColor = MyColor

 

      MyColor = oShape.Fill.ForeColor

      oCell.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor = MyColor

 

      MyColor = oCell.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor

      oShape.Fill.ForeColor = MyColor

 

Is there a better way to do this with VBA? These couplets are simplified, of course; in practice I have one macro to "get" the color (storing its value) and run another to apply it to a cell or paragraph or shape that I've selected.


Thanks for any clues.


How do you change the 'Tab after' value for the multi-level numbered list used in the standard Heading Styles?

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 01:03 AM PDT

I have a document with a number of heading styles that have a multi-level list associated with them.

When using some of the heading levels the text is too close to the automatically generated number

2.12 Heading Text

rather than

2.12    Heading Text

On previous versions of Word I have changed this by modifying the Numbering on the heading style. This would have given me the option to select different numbering styles to use and when selecting multi-level I could change all aspects of the list numbering.

In Word 2013 (or possibly earlier) the multi-level list has been split away from the other numbering styles and I can find no way of getting access to the tab to modify the way it works. I can see the value I want to change ('Tab after') in the style summary but can find no way to change it.

I have struggled with this for a couple of days now and no one else in the office can offer any suggestions (this is a team of experienced software engineers who have have over 100 years experience of Word between us!).

Can somebody please tell me how to do what was a relatively simple task in previous versions of this product.

Thank you.

setting a bullet after a tab stop

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 07:29 PM PDT

Hello,

I have a subtitle written with left alignment, after which a tab-stop takes the cursor to 96pt. At this point, I want to start a bullet list and write some text. However, when I attempt it, the bullet also includes the subtitle written on the left end apart from the text. Normally, I would create a table and write the subtitle in the first column and the bulleted list in the second column. However, I just trashed the table layout and moved to a tab-stop alignment layout. Wondering if I can get the bullet list after the tab stop. Suggestions will be much appreciated!

Thanks :)

Unable to open word documents from library

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 03:36 PM PDT

Hello, everyone.

I am unable to open Microsoft Office Word documents from my computer library and instead have to enter Microsoft Office Word 2010 in order to open the document. If I attempt to open one from any place in my library - documents, music, pictures, videos, downloaded, etcetera - Microsoft Office Word 2010 will appear to open but stop about halfway through the loading process. In other words I can see the top bar and a light blue background, but none of the functions work and a 'document image' or 'paper image' does not appear. I have been dealing with this issue for almost a year and now that I am doing more computer based work it has become a hassle so help in resolving this would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advanced to any responses.

Thanks for your help - I don't have the CD's to hand to check the versions
(I didn't perform either install myself) and this installation was a
reinstall over the previous installation (we exported the customisations,
reinstalled, then imported and published them) so can't check the help file
links but it sounds like it's most likely the cause of the problem.

I've just tried customising the lead form and we do indeed get blank tabs

when in use.

Hi,

You only need Exchange should you wish to in-corporate e-mail functionality
and collaboration within the users. Otherwise CRM runs just fine without it.

On the fax issue I'm not quite sure, as have never tried it but I have my
feelings that it might not be possible directly. Please correct me if I'm
wrong.

Thanks and Regards
Fakhruddin
