Microsoft Word - Find and Replace dialog not working correctly


Find and Replace dialog not working correctly

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 02:38 PM PDT

I have Microsoft Office 2007 Home running on an HP Pavilion with Windows 7 and I'm having a problem with the Find and Replace dialog.  I type a lot of term papers for high school and college students.  When finding ... and replacing it with . . . about 95% of the time the first replacement will be . instead.  Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how to fix it?  I've run a repair on the program and even completely uninstalled and reinstalled it but it's still happening.

Excel and Word convert feature

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 12:28 PM PDT

On office 2010, on the backstage, there is a convert feature if you open a 2003 or earlier file. It is suppose to change the file to a 2010 format, ask to close and reopen the the file and then you only have the file in the new format. But on some machines it is acting as a save as and you have 2 files which can definately cause issues if you are not viewing extensions or file types.

 

I have posted this with Word but it is happening with both Word and Excel.

 

Can someone tell me what is causing this and how to fix it?

 

Thanks

Word 2013 crashes as soon as I do anything, is a nightmare

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 12:12 PM PDT

So I installed Office 2013 a couple of days ago, everything was working fine, used it extensively yesterday without problems. Today when I opened a new document and pasted a few things in it stopped responding and almost made my entire computer crash completely. Every time I lost the document because it was a brand new document with basically nothing in it except some pasted text. I restarted Word I-don't-know-how-many times and kept trying but it kept crashing ("Word is not responding"). So I gave up. I tried to do some simple word processing just now and it STILL kept doing the not responding thing as soon as I'd highlight some text or even just try to change the size. I don't understand why it was working yesterday but seems to be a pile of junk today. I'm terrified of this happening when I start typing up my thesis so I really need to fix this problem. Any suggestions would be lovely.

Office 2010 help

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 11:18 AM PDT

I recently had to do a repair install of Windows 7 to fix an issue, since then i am having trouble saving office documents. It doesnt seem to matter if it is word, excel or powerpoint, when I try to save I get a message saying that I do not have permission to save to that location. It then asks if i would like to save to the my documents folder instead. If I select yes the document will save and i am able to copy and paste it anywhere I would like but it gets annoying having to do this every file. I tried several other files types and they all save just fine in any location, I can save notepad files on my desktop without issue but not word documents.

I am on the Administrator account for this computer, I checked the permissions and have full control in the disk security tab as well as any folders that i am trying to save under. UAC is set to never, and I have tried a repair on Microsoft office, as well as removing and reinstalling it.

Microsoft Word 2010 Normal.dotm Template Keeps Reverting Back to a Previous Version

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 10:08 AM PDT

I'm having a very frustrating problem with Word 2010 SP2 that I haven't been able to track down and could certainly use some help with.

 

When originally installed, the Word image defaulted to our business' European owner's A4 paper size and margin settings.  I would change the paper size to letter and set the margins that I wanted, click on Save as Default and then when I closed Word, it asked if I wanted to save the changes that I'd made to the normal.dotm template.  I chose 'Yes' and assumed (wrongly, apparently) that everything would work just fine after that.  Everything seemed to be okay for the rest of the day, but when I came in and woke up my laptop the next day, everything had reverted back to the European settings.

 

So, back in I went and started deleting all of the copies of normal.dotm or oldnormal.dotm, etc., that I could find.  This took a few attempts across a few days, but on 10/9/2013 I finally got it to stay on Letter-sized paper, but with the default margins of 1" all around.  I prefer the narrow margin settings of 0.5", so I set those again and saved the template.  Again, all was fine for one day, but after returning to work the next day, the margin settings would be lost, but the paper size was still Letter.

 

I've kept an eye on the normal.dotm template file and when I change the margins, the template file gets updated with a new date, but when I check it the next morning, it has reverted back to the 10/9/2013 file date with those settings.  I have searched the hard drive multiple times looking for the normal.dotm template file with the 10/9/2013 date, but cannot find anything.  I have verified that the template file location is set to my C: drive in the default installation directory and all appears to be normal.  I cannot figure out what I must have done differently on 10/9/2013 to change the paper size and get that to stick and I have no idea where this 10/9/2013 copy of normal.dotm could be coming from.  I even looked in Task Scheduler to see if anything had been set up in there to regularly replace the template file, but there is nothing.

 

I'm pretty much at my wit's end and would really appreciate any suggestions that you may have regarding this issue.

 

Thanks in advance!

Document Tags

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 10:05 AM PDT

I use tags to make organising files easier. I have a long list of tags now, all automatically saved when I create them. Unfortunately even misspelt tags are saved automatically, and remain saved even after I correct the spelling by making a new tag. So I now have a long list of saved tags, a lot of which I don't want. How can I get rid of all these old tags ?

Word document changes marked in original

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 10:00 AM PDT

Footer keeps removing

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 09:57 AM PDT

I'm updating a document in Word 07 with a footer on the first page only and the page numbers on all the rest.  The first three pages contain a table of contents.  Every time I update the entire TOC the footer & page numbers are removed.  Frequently when anything on the document is updated and saved the footer & page numbers are again removed.  Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

Delete a Custome theme from Office 2010 Word

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 09:56 AM PDT

Office 365 Word 'Save-As' extremely slow on Windows 8 laptop

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 09:14 AM PDT

We are using Dell laptop touch screen systems with Windows 8 installed.  When attempting to do a "Save-As" from Word/Office 365 Home Premium to a network drive it can take several minutes for the address bar to progress across the top until the save is completed.  I thought the problem might be with the wireless connection so I hard wired the laptops back to the switch but this problem still occurs.  It seems as though the computer is searching to reconnect to the mapped network drive.  The time period taken to achieve the save varies and can take up to 4 or 5 minutes.

We are running other Windows 7 Pro desktops mapped to the same network drives and using Office 365 and they run fine.  We also have SkyDrive connections on the laptops and the desktops. 

Any thoughts on how to correct this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Search clip art by collection?

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 08:14 AM PDT

Recently Microsoft shutdown the website Microsoft Images (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/images/).

The illustrations (wmf files) used to be tagged on the website with a collection number that you could search for and pull up all illustrations in that collection. This was very helpful as you could have all clip art in a document have the same style.

Now that I have to search through Word to find the same illustration files, they aren't tagged with a collection number. Does anyone know how to still find all illustrations in a collection?

Thank you so much!

Vertical alignement of inline object

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 07:11 AM PDT

Is it possible to adjust the vertical alignment of inline objects? I have a small symbol that I need to add inline to a paragraph. When I insert the symbol it seems to be place a little higher up on the line while I would like it to be a little lower (more precisely, I would like its center point to be aligned with the center point of lower letters). Is it possible? Thanks.

Office elements (first Word, now Outlook) suddenly crashing for one user, but not for Admin

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 07:03 AM PDT

Hi.  I'm running Office 2007 Standard on a Win8 machine.  I've had the new PC since last Spring, and Office worked perfectly until three or four weeks ago, when Word refused to open in my normal, everyday profile - just the rectangular splash logo and then hung.  After a while I discovered it will open OK for the Admin account, but I am reluctant to keep this account logged in a I am always connected to internet and prefer to keep Admin account logged out unless needed.  After waiting several minutes, I can get rid of the splash logo by clicking it, which brings up the options "close window" or "wait for Word to run" (or similar).  If I choose "close window", I get a message "looking for the problem, this could take a few minutes" (or similar), although it in fact takes only 30 seconds or so.  Now the rot has begun to attack Outlook, too: it opens fine, and many actions cause no problem., but some (including copy&paste, or changing colour of a cell entry, or bolding the text) will crash it (egg-timer; "not responding").
As of now I have run Office Diagnostics several times; checked I have all updates; tried several registry modifications suggested in other threads on this forum; run a couple of Microsoft Fix-Its; saving my .pst file, uninstalling Office 2007 and re-installing from the original CD-ROM.
I am reluctant to upgrade to a new Office version: (a) I'm a pensioner and can't afford it, and (b) I've tried it on a friend's machine and it offers me nothing I need among the new features (indeed, even Office 2007 has far more features than I realistically need).
Grateful for any advice.

Word 2010 versus Word 365

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 06:01 AM PDT

I have Word 2010 installed on my computer, which has Windows 7 OS.  MSN is asking me to purchase Word 365, which I understand has various benefits including cloud storage, and which I have been testing as proposed.  However, I do not need cloud storage, and do not see other advantages.  It tells me to hurry up, as most features of Word will be disabled on October 28.  What will be disabled ?  Will I be able to continue to use Word 2010 as before ?

multilevel lists/bullet issues

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 05:12 AM PDT

I am having issues on the multilevel list/format for Word 2013. I was drafting an outline for course work and was using the multilevel list to add structure and format to my notes. Until recently, hence my problem, I would use "enter" then "tab" to right indent and change my level to the next sub-level. To return to a higher/previous level I would use "enter" then "tab + back space". At present when I would use "tab" to attempt to change my level it simply indents as if to begin a new paragraph without any change in my level. When I would use "back space" it will remove the multilevel format (bullet, number, or letter) and keep my text in-line with the previous bullet, number, or letter. I had not made any changes to settings and am looking for ways to correct this issue. No error messages appear at any time and this is my only issue with Microsoft Word 2013. Any assistance to correct this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,


Kyle

Updating All Fields in a Word Document

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 04:40 AM PDT

Hi all I have seen a previous post on this but am going to re-post again as my question is slightly different and the advice given to use the Ctrl+Alt+F9 key does not work.

 

I want to update the fields in my document as I actively am creating, can this be adapted to do this in the main settings, I can only find a box that all fields to update actively when printing?

 

When I use the Ctrl, ALt + F9 key to update all fields within a document the field codes appear, (this is also in the headers as well?) Does anyone else experience this?

 

Thanks I shall look forward to responses.

 

 

Few Office programs keeps crushing after start

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 04:03 AM PDT

Hi!

I bought Office 365 for 2 PC:s, a desktop PC with Win7 and a laptop with Win8. When I first time tried Word on desktop
it worked well. Now, when I start it, it crashes right after I've tried click something. It won't crash if I don't do anything.
I've tried a fresh install, a quick fix and an online fix. Nothing. 

For some reason, Powerpoint works well.

I'm getting frustrated, because I bought the product because of it's reliability.

I hope you can help me! Here's some pictures about crashing notices

MS Word not printing Photos in colour

Posted: 25 Oct 2013 03:22 AM PDT

MS Word is printing all photos on the document in b+w.

The Printer is Definitely a colour printer as you can print the document as a PDF and the colour is printed.
I can also print colour in the same document ie. add red text and it prints in colour. 

I have ticked the print background colour and images, this does not work.

I have uninstalled and re-installed office... No joy I cannot find any other causes to this.

I've even re-installed drivers etc for printer.

To me seems like it a setting or some tick somewhere in Word but i cannot find it

duration one day, ends next day instead of same day

Posted: 21 Dec 2004 09:07 AM PST

Hi Luigui,

First, set your date format to show you time as well as dates. (Tool
->Options, View tab, set the Date format to show time.) Project calculates
information to the minute, so viewing time as well as the date can frequently
help track down problems.

On the Calendar tab in the Options dialog box, correct the default start and
end times as well as modify the number of hours in a day and a week. It is
this definition of "days" and "weeks" that Project uses when you enter task
durations. So if your project calendar was modified for a 7.5 hour work day,
but the definition of a "day" was 8 hours, the task will not end until 1/2 on
an hour into the next working day.

You may also want to check the start time of your Project (Project ->
Project Information) to verify that the project is starting at the correct
time.

Hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Julie

How do I export the Ganatt Chart in *.html and keep the colorful .

Posted: 20 Dec 2004 07:45 AM PST

Hi Matt

use the camera icon (standard toolbar) to take a gif of the gantt chart
- format the timescale correctly first and then select the task names of the
tasks to include - i then use "selected rows" when creating the picture

then use the file / save as web page wizard to create a html page
incorporating the gif. (in the wizard you'll see a check box about
incorporating an image file in the HTML page)

You might also check to be sure that the file itself does not contain the

Do it the same way with the organizer, but look on the right side and see
what is embedded in the file itself.

Hello, Cliff.
If I understand correctly, you are sorting data in calc, and the
behavior you describe is caused by selecting a cell in column E or G
before you issue the sort command. In order to change to the behavior
you desire, move your cursor to a cell in column F before you sort.

If you can open the document in one of the OpenOffice.org components, you can use File > Export to

When the QA cycle is finished without detecting any showstopper bug. OOo
doesn't support the portable version officially, portableapps mantain a
version of OOo. Maybe you can start a portable project at
portable.openoffice.org that can mantain builds for potable version.

Is not a bad idea, but would require integration with the mirrors and more
space on the servers. You will need a new binary for the supported
languages.

[discuss] iphone and mac

Posted: 22 Nov 2010 10:12 AM PST

Hi Paul,

Please provide more information:
- What sort of files are they trying to open?
- What application are they trying to open them with?

If the problem is to do with Open Document Format files (as produced by Open Office), it
may be because they do not have any applications that will open it.

On a Mac, the Mac version of OpenOffice will work: from here:
http://download.openoffice.org/other.html

Or, they may prefer NeoOffice.org, another variant on OpenOffice.org, for Mac.

I'm not familiar with iPhone, so cannot make a recommendation.

John, it has been a long time since I have used any of these, and with
their similar names, WordPad and NotePad, I never could keep straight
which was which, but in any case, both were provided with the Win OS.
and IIRC I did use NotePad to write code for BASIC, I must have assumed
it was for that, because I used it for that myself. Anyway, once Win XP
came out I never went near a command line again and forgot all about these.

Do you know what version of Works it is supposed to be?
-go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Works
-right click on msworks.exe and choose properties
-click on version tab, what is the File version listed?

Do you have MS Office installed on this machine as well by chance?

Works doesn't have "inking" features. But using the Tablet OS, you can write
with the pen and that text will be inserted, as type, into Works.

scanned documents

Posted: 14 May 2006 11:02 PM PDT

Hi Zephyr,

Optical character recognition (OCR) saves your documents in an editable
format. If you are scanning with OCR, save the files as .rtf or .doc, or
with the appropriate suffix associated with the application you will use to
edit them.

Microsoft Word Documents (.doc) or Microsoft Rich Text Format (.rtf) -
Digital text formats supported across most operating systems that allow
files to be saved with formatting intact.

Need help woth template document

Hi Greg,

In my previous post I mention my scanner came with PaperPort Deluxe software
and it's FormTyper allows one to fill out a form.

This morning I notice HP's (Compact) scanner software has a feature called
PageType and is similar to FormTyper. Perhaps your scanner software has a
similar tool.

| Hi Greg,

| My scanner came with PaperPort Delux software.

|
| The following from PaperPort help
|
| FormTyper:
| (Available with PaperPort Deluxe Software or separately online at
| www.scansoft.com)
|
| If you ever need to fill in a form, there's no easier way than to use

you

|
| To use FormTyper to fill in a form:
|
| 1. Drag the form to the FormTyper link.
| 2. Fill in the found fields as appropriate.
| 3. Use the Tab key to move from field to field.
| 4. When done, close FormTyper - you'll be prompted to save your changes on
| the PaperPort Desktop.

| | Hi All,
| | Hopefuilly someone here can give me some help.... I have a

which
| | somes with Word to be able to make it so I can open that document and
type
| | information into the different fields and than print it.
| |
| | For example when the document opens, I want to be able to click on the

| | field and enter name. Than hit Tab to move to the next field, perhaps
| | Address: and type that in. That hit Tab and move to the next field,
maybe
| | City: and type that in..... I'm sure you get the picture.
| |
| | I've seen this done with other documents in the past. I know how to make
| the
| | template, I just don't know how to define (if thats the correct term)
the
| | individual fields so information can be added and you can move between
| them
| | by using the Tab key.
| |
| | When I scaned my initial "test" document into my computer I saved it as
a
| | *.wmf format, perhaps that is causing a problem. I sure would love to
| figure
| | this thing out so I can modify a bunch of other forms I use at work all

I dont think you should risk this.

This file is installed by default into the Documents and settings
folder of your primary drive. You can try to mock the primary drive and
Documents and settings location in the registry and then install works.

But this is risky and can cost you if not the stability of the works
calendar, some other program on your computer.

I would suggest not going into that area.

That'll do it. Too many people think that phone numbers, zip codes and SSNs
are numbers. They are always text.

My rule is, if you aren't going to add, subtract or multiply it it isn't a
number. And it's SO annoying when 00416-0013 gets turned into 416 -- or 403!
