Microsoft Word - Word 2013 Error


Word 2013 Error

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 01:59 PM PDT

I have Win 8 and Office 2013 and a new computer.

All of a sudden, some word documents will not open, bringing up this error:

There is insufficient memory or disk space. Word cannot display the requested font.

I've tried renaming normal.dot files and disabling add-in and I'm not getting anywhere.

Even my IT guy can't figure this out.

Please help!

line spacing

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 01:34 PM PDT

I am trying to print a document on to a form in Word 2010.  The line spacing even when I use the exactly feature to pick the point value, is not consistent on the form and after 4-5 lines its not lined up.

Printing Error: Custom page size 6 x 9 inches and margins: Left 2.1, Top 2.1, Right .5 and Bottom .5

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 01:28 PM PDT

I set up a document on Word 2010 to print the following: Custom page size 6 x 9 inches and margins: Left 2.1, Top 2.1, Right .5 and Bottom .5 

When I see the set up on the screen it is correct. The print preview also looks correct, but when I actually print the document the Left margin is 7/8th of an inch, the Top margin is 2 1/2 inches and the right margin is 2 inches.

I have been using this size of paper for many years on the same computer and printer without a problem and this has started happening.  Any helpful hints to fixing this?

Thanks.

Does anyone have explanations or suggestions for resolvng this behavior?

Office 2013 no longer supports context menu (right-click) add to autocorrect list?

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 12:27 PM PDT

Just got a new system running Win 8 Pro with Office Pro 2013.  Among the numerous features I've relied on for years that are missing seems to be the ability to right-click on a word that Office (Outlook, Word, etc.) thinks is misspelled and add the (already existing) correct spelling to the autocorrect list.  Instead, it appears you must select File > Options > Proofing > Autocorrect... etc.

 

Can this be right?  Did Microsoft really remove this?

 

Duplicate lines

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 12:27 PM PDT

I recently purchased a new computer. I'm running Word 2013 on Windows 8.1. Sometimes Word will duplicate parts of lines as I'm typing them. For example:

The etymology is obscure. The etymology is obscureIt may derive from the verb...

Windows is up to date. I was worried that the issue arose because I was using compatibility mode to edit a document created in an older version of Office. Since then I pasted the contents of the file into a docx, but the problem still occurs. What could be the cause and what can I do to correct it?

Content Controls with building blocks

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 12:01 PM PDT

I have a huge problem I am hoping to get help with.    I have created a macro enabled template form for quoting purposes for our company and I am trying to make a content control dropdown determine the building block results of a building block content control in the same document.   In other words to explain fully I have a building block content control of which contains several building blocks that I need to somehow make it so that each building block chosen would trigger a different building block content control to display a specific building block.    so I choose one building block, and as a result a certain building block as well as that one displays somewhere else in the document.  Any ideas?

Creating a form in word 2010

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 11:24 AM PDT

I have created a form in Microsoft word and added Text & Date controls.  I protected my document as "filling in forms" where only the text & date controls are available to be input.  My issue is that once I type in a field and click TAB to go to the next, I remain in my same control field and the tab keeps enlarging the space.

How can I make the tab to move off of one field and go to the next?

My Reference tab won't let me create citations or a bibliography

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 10:22 AM PDT

I'm a student and bought the full student version of the Microsoft 2010 last year. However the reference tab will not allow me to create any citations or a bibliography. I can insert footnotes, captions and create an index but not the bits I need.  This wasn't really that big of an issue last, but I am currently writing my first big report and have nearly 70 references to put into the document! Can somebody please help?

TOC linking to section headings and not page numbers

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 10:10 AM PDT

I received a document asking if I can fix it.  The toc and list of figures are pickiing up the section heading numbers and not the form number (page field) on the footer. I have tried deleting and re-inserting a 'clean' toc field several times and it continues to pick up the section numbers, thereby:

 

3.1.1.3    This is the heading wording .....................................................3.1.1.2-4

 

I have selected Show page numbers (Right align page numbers) Tab Leader ...... Formats (From template) and checked Use hyperlinks instead of page numbers

 

Under options, I have checked "Styles" and made heading 4 (1), heading 5 (2) and heading 6 (3) because we are only showing 3 heading levels in the TOC and they are starting with heading 4, then 5 and 6 respectively.  And... the "Outline levels is deselected" though I tried with the box checked and unchecked and could not discern a difference in the output.

 

If I toggle the field codes, I can see:  {HYPERLINK \l"_TOC370890901"} but still have no idea why it is substituting the heading number for the page number.

 

This is very curious and there must be an explanation......

Inaccurate section printing with Word 2013

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 10:10 AM PDT

I am trying to print specific sections of a Word document. When I use the instructions from this KB Article (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/826218), I only really get the first section requested. Any prints after that either include other sections, the whole page, different sections or no sections.

 

I tested this with:

- 2 different computers installed with Office 2013 (Windows 7 and 8)

- 3 different printers (HP, Xerox, Konica-Minolta)

- 2 different documents (5 pages of plain text document; 10 pages of full formatted document)

- continuous breaks

- different print requests for sections throughout document

 

The first section request is consistently accurate. The following results are very unpredictable.

 

Is anyone aware of any changes to Word section printing since earlier versions? Are there any Word gurus that have experienced this and fixed/worked-around it?

Office Word Crashes with large documents

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 10:07 AM PDT

I have large word documents with lots of photo inserted.

By large I mean 35,000 to 55,000 kb.

 

Documents just lock up and all I can do is restart MS-Word.

It usually corrects the problem.

But I have to do it every 5-10 minutes as Word crashes

 

Sometimes it says I have insufficient disk space or out of memory.

Sorry but I have almost 600 Gig of free space and 10 Gig of ram.

 

I run very large AutoCAD documents and do not have a problem.

 

Templates in Word 2010

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:59 AM PDT

I need to pick someones brain....

 

I have previously worked with a template system that kept all templates central and only available by selecting a button on the toolbar.  A pop up would then enable you to select the template type on the left had side and the user on the right hand side.  The template would then open with the users details completed (i.e. name, phone number) where needed (generally as a sign off for a letter).

 

I have no idea what this template library/production system is called and have exhausted google search.

 

Can anyone please let me know what this is called and companies that provide this?

 

Thanks in advance.

It is not opening for me.

Need help saving autocorrect entries

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:53 AM PDT

I recently bought a PC that runs Windows 8.  I am currently using MS Word 2003.  My former PC (Vista) crashed and I lost all my autocorrect entries.  I have since bought a flash drive to save all work I do.  I am needing to know ASAP how to transfer all the autocorrect entries I have had to reenter to the flash drive in case I crash again as I do not want to lose all my entries again.  I do medical transcription from home for a living so this is very important to know ASAP.  Thanks!

question about printing troubleshooting

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:32 AM PDT

Good morning,

Ever since I uploaded the microsoft word 365 (Oct 6) I am having trouble printing my documents - what am I doing wrong? Am I doing it from the wrong source?

Also, if I decide to extend the software and purchase it after my free trial is up how much is it?

Thanks,

How to copy a table's column width to another table?

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:32 AM PDT

I have a document with many tables that all have the same structure (i.e. columns and column width).

But now I need to add an additional column too all of these.

 

I did that with the first table but adding an additional column of course resizes all other columns. So, after doing that I had to readjust all column widths anew so they look "pretty" (automatic column width calculation didn't yield a good result here).

 

But how do I apply this now to the remaining tables? I definitely don't want to have to massage each table individually!

Is there a possibility to add another column and re-adjusts all column width in one go?

Since that's probably asking too much: can I at least carry over the column widths from the first table to all the others?

Crashes

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:25 AM PDT

I pay monthly for 365 and so far have had FOUR MS employees access my computer to no avail on solving this issue.  I've about had it.  Tired of it crashing SEVERAL times a day without it ever being fixed.  Tired of paying for a product that does not work property and no one seems to be able to fix it.  Sometimes it recovers my work and some times it does not.

Word 2010 corrupted normal.dotm, how to fix or replace

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:18 AM PDT

My normal.dotm seems to be corrupted because throughout many documents, text is marked as Language=Italian or Language=French. This screws up my grammar checking and spelling. I tried deleting all dictionaries except English (U.S.) but problem persists.

Language info of normal.dotm styles looks like this:


and, when I scroll down, many other languages are checked:



How can either completely delete and replace normal.dotm with a "clean" copy? Or how can I clear out all of these extraneous language settings?

Thank you.






Cannot open docx in Word 2007 with embedded Excel chart

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:14 AM PDT

One of my users was sent a .docx with embedded Excel charts. When we try to open in Word 2007, get the following error:

 

The file [filename].docx cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents. Details expansion area is empty.

 

This is a collaborative legal document that is going to go back and forth between my user and the document creator. It has comments and Tracked Changes that must be preserved.

 

As I see it, we have the following options:

 

1. Ask the document creator to save it down in a format that we can read

   (unacceptable to the document creator, for some dumb, unrelated political reasons - out of my control)

 

2. Purchase 2010 for our user

   (unacceptable, we have hundreds of users with identical machines/software profiles - will not do this just to solve this issue)

 

3. Delete all of the embedded charts and save

   (unacceptable, need chart data)

 

4. Save to Wordpad, then back to docx

   (unacceptable, eliminates Tracked Changes)

 

5. Send to IT administrator who saves down as a 2003-era doc

   (user hates this workaround, but that's what we're going to do unless I can figure something else out)

 

It's clear that something in the way the Excel charts are embedded is the root of this issue. Is anyone aware of a patch or workaround of any kind that can be implemented on my user's machine without them having to send the document to someone else for modification?

 

Thanks!

Headings starting with something other than 1

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:03 AM PDT

I need to set up headings in a huge document that do not start with section or heading 1.....

 

Shauna Kelly is my bible for setting up Multi-level lists, but I need to be able to set up the headings in an unusual way.

 

Each group working on the document has a different section, so the numbering does not start at Heading 1 (1.0) as the style is, but rather may start at 1.1.1.1 (which is heading 4) or 1.1.1 (heading 3) or even 1.1.1.1.1.1 (heading 6)

 

I need to be able to start this particular section with 3.1.1.3.  What steps need to be taken to adapt the headings appropriately? As always - clarification would be most helpful.

Problem with Office 365

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 09:03 AM PDT

When attempting to open any Office products like Word or PowerPoint, the program says it is unable to open and suggests a fix from the control panel. When I try this, the fix gets stuck on part 2 of 4 and hasn't moved past this part in hours. What can I do to fix this? (Trying to uninstall also gets stuck on part 2 of 4).

Microsoft Office stops working upon loading up.

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 08:47 AM PDT

I recently purchaced Microsoft Office 2013 Home and Student (Word, Excel and Poperpoint) through Amazon.co.uk. My purchace consisted of a product key for one PC, and therefore rights to download and install Office. When starting up any program in the package, a message informs me that the program in question has stopped working. The only option presented is to close the program, and try again.

My laptop specs are as follows:

Processor: Intel (R) Core i5-2410M CPU @ 2.3GHz
RAM: 6GB
System type: 64 bit Operating System (Windows 7)
Graphics Driver: NVIDIA 520M

I have attempted to troubleshoot the issue. According to a discussion on the related topic, an add-in may be the source of the problem. The solution was to restart the PC in safe mode and access the add-in from there. I have tried that, and Microsoft word didn't open up when activated. Another solution was to start the laptop in clean boot mode. I followed the instructions to do this, however the issue still exists on the same level.

The person who proposed the latter of these two solutions was a Microsoft employee who reccommended presenting an event log if the issues persist. I followed the instructions on this link: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/What-information-appears-in-event-logs-Event-Viewer

I think this was the issue as quoted in what I assume is the correct event:
"Microsoft Word
Word is running into problems with the 'c:\program files (x86)\common files\abbyy\finereadersprint\9.00\integration\finereaderlite.word.tmpl.dot' add-in. If this keeps happening, disable this add-in and check for available updates. Do you want to disable it now?
P1: 700160
P2: 15.0.4535.1507
P3:
P4:"

Can you advise me further on this problem? If this add in is the issue, then the only way I know how disable it is via starting the program sucsessfully. As you may have assumed, I am not particularly computer literate.

Thank you in advance.
Mike

Office Home & Student 2010

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 08:42 AM PDT

I have installed and activated this program (several times in fact) but always have the same problem.  I can only open documents in My Documents by opening Word 2010 and usingOpen. On the other hand when I double click on a document opened as a .wps (using Microsoft Word Processor) it correctly automatically opens the document using Microsoft Word. Documents that are file type DOC or DOCX do not have Microsoft Word as an option when I right click on Open with.  When I browse to Program Files, Microsoft Office, Office 14 and Winword and choose Winword Open nothing happens.

I have followed several similar questions and have tried many of the very helpful suggestions but nothing works.  I have uninstalled all other works, and word programs and used Microsoft Fix it to uninstal the stubborn ones. I downloaded my Office 2010 from Microsoft.com.  My computer runs on Vista hp and I have tried running as administrator. I have tried run with winword and the complete path and although Office opens and configures again the same situation remains.  I have no winword or word option for docx files.

What is the definitive solution?

Use a custom template as the default template

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 07:14 AM PDT

Hi,

 

I understand how Word 2010 uses the Normal.dotm as the default template for a new blank document, how you can change the defaults which amends Normal.dotm and how you can create new templates for creating new documents.  However, can you use a custom template as the default template - e.g. when you start Word and it opens with a new blank document, that is based on a custom template rather than Normal.dotm?  Can you do that and how?

 

Thanks.

Limit the number of rows in a table in MS Word

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 05:54 AM PDT

Hello,

I am building a document, and I have inserted a table to help manage fields for data to be entered.  The first part of the document has a table with 4 rows for general information.  I would like to limit or lock that table to only 4 rows.  Currently, in the last cell of the last row if you hit tab or enter, it adds another row to the table, then you have to undo and manually use the mouse to click to the next data entery field.  I would like for that table to be locked at 4 rows, and if the user hits tab or enter, it takes them to the next data field, and doesn't add a row to the table.

 

Is this possible?

 

Thanks.

Lost Text in Word Documents

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 03:56 AM PDT

In recent weeks I have three times come back to Word 2007 documents I have been working on for hours to find them blank.  All documents were around 4000 words long and saved frequently.  The text simply vanished and there were no previous versions found anywhere on the computer.  Other similar documents are intact and totally fine. What is wrong?  Am I doing something?  It is causing me considerable stress as I am working to tight deadlines and twice I have had to stay up late into the night rewriting them from scratch.  

I am now also saving them on a memory stick and emailing them to myself- but I still fear that my next piece of work will also vanish, no matter how I save it.

Any advice/thoughts?  Thanks

I am afraid you are out of luck. Microsoft will not supply you with a replacement CD key since Office 2000 Premium has been taken off the scene at Microsoft as a settlement with the Sun Java system settlement. If you want to get a key you will need to see if you can purchase a Office 2000 at Ebay or at a similar place.

2010 Word cannot locate Outlook contacts

All of a sudden, when I try to print envelopes in Word, it cannot locate the Outlook Address Book.  I click on the "address book" icon, am asked which profile to use and then Under Select Names screen appears.  Nothing shows up up in the "Show Named from the:" box.  I recently received/installed update to SP2.  Does this have anything to do with it?

Working with Pictures inside a Word document

Posted: 29 Oct 2013 11:58 AM PDT

I inspect houses. After each inspection I must create a written report with pictures of various problems I find in the house I inspected. I will insert the same number and type of photos into every report, in the exact same place in each report. In other words, there is a section of text followed by a batch a photos, followed by more text, more photos etc. 

I created a template word document with a lot of the standard text I need in there, although this text content will change with every report. I know it is difficult to move pictures inside a word doc, so I created text boxes in the proper places inside the document, and inserted photos inside the text boxes. There is usually 3-6 photos side by side in the photo areas of the report. With each new document, I can just replace the previous photo in that box with the new photo, i don't have to resize and shape and place the photos every time, etc.  

The template document looks perfect. But, when i edit the text portion of the doc, the pictures start moving all over the document and get completely out of a normal alignment. I believe I need to find a way to group these photos so they always stay grouped together in proper alignment, or maybe I can change the text wrapping so the photos stay aligned. 

I'm not experienced with this stuff. Any help or fresh ideas would be extremely much appreciated. And if it is easier to talk about it then to write it all out let me know, i will give you my phone #.

All of a sudden one of my word files won't open I get a conversion dialog

Posted: 29 Oct 2013 11:51 AM PDT

All of a sudden one of my word files won't open. When I try to open it I get that damnable window which presumably does some kind of a file conversion after you select Text Encoding as either being Windows, MS-Dos, or "Other" and then it lists a litany of world codes none of which converts the gibberish which shows up when I  open the file. I hope you follow this because I can't open the file in english which happens to be what I used to create the file.

I'm using MS Office Home and Student 2010 which includes MS Word 2010. The file in question which is attached was originally created with the 2010 version.

We are having a problem in our office and no one can figure our why.

 

My boss received a redlined word document from someone who had word 2007.  He has word 2010 as do I.  The redline markings came out fine on his computer. However when he sent the same document to me the changes where in the document but not as a redline.  We had a similar problem with PowerPoint. Presentations he sent me were not the same as he saw them.  We can't figure out why this is happening.  Can you help.  We are desparate.

Relocking a Form

Posted: 29 Oct 2013 11:00 AM PDT

I have a piece of code that unlocks a form, performs spelling verifier, and then relocks the form when done.  However, if the "cancel" button is selected on the spelling verifier, the code is killed and the form does not relock.  Is there a way to either not allow the cancel button to be selected while running to code or to relock the form if the cancel button is selected?

Windows 8 Word - password recovery?

I have forgotten the password to an important Word doc in Windows 8.

Is there any way I can undo or recover it as an "administrator" on my PC?

 

I have seen the following website is selling password recovery software, but I cannot tell if it's safe...please help.

Perhaps Microsoft could create a way to unlock them in the "administrator" profile...please?

 

How do I get rid of the annoying angle marks on word 2003?

Posted: 29 Oct 2013 10:46 AM PDT

Okay, I know a lot about computers and this problem has me both stumped and frustrated beyond belief. So I'm using word 03 and there are these annoying crop mark/angle thingies on all four corners of the page as shown in the picture. My text boundaries check mark is unchecked and I do not have any asian languages enabled. English U.S. is the only one. I don't even think these are the same crop marks described in other forums. Whatever they are, I just want them gone because they are driving me bonkers and they distract me from my work.

files passworded in 2003 can't have the password removed in 2010

Posted: 29 Oct 2013 10:15 AM PDT

I have a 2003 file that is passworded. When I open it in 2010, it asks for the password and opens the file with the password. But when I try to remove it, that is not an option. I have converted the file to a 2010 document and the same issue occurs.

 

The only way I know to get around it is to get into the file, copy the contents, paste into a blank and resave the file.

 

Does anyone know what is going on with this or have another answer?

Indent changes automatically when bullet number 10 is reached.

Posted: 29 Oct 2013 10:10 AM PDT


Hi there.

Have a look at the picture below...


When I use bullets/numbering, the space between the numbering and the actual paragraph changes. This happens from number 10, as can be seen in the picture above.

I don't think this is the intended action. Why is this happening and is there a way to prevent this?

As a KIND OF workaround, I can change the indent very slightly as seen in the before/after depictions.

BEFORE:


AFTER:


My "sort of" workaround is not really one as the indents are not the standard I use at my workplace. Any insight appreciated!

How do I hide Hidden Text and still show/hide all the other formatting marks?

Posted: 29 Oct 2013 09:57 AM PDT

In Word 2003, you could select a check box in the Display Options to keep the Hidden Text hidden, so that when you clicked the Show/Hide formatting marks button, the Hidden Text never appeared. To get Hidden Text to appear, you had to first clear the Hidden Text check box in the Display Options.  Now, in Word 2007, it appears that all the formatting marks (including Hidden Text) appear when you toggle between Show/Hide using the formatting marks button. How do I keep the Hidden Text hidden when I click the Show/Hide formatting marks button? 

Office365 "Insert Table of Contents" missing

I have a recent install of Office365 on a new PC.  When I am creating a new Word document or modifying an existing one the Table of Contents dropdown menu is missing the "Insert Table of Contents" option.  It just isn't there!  How can I get it?

I can remove the TOC from an existing doc or insert one of the Automatic per-formatted TOCs but I cannot customize the TOC in any way.

Copying macros in Word 2013

Hello

I am trying to copy macros between Word documents but am unable to see individual macros in the organizer, what I can see is just NewMacros container. Is there a way to see individual macros in the organizer and therefore choose which ones I want to copy instead of copying them all when NewMacros is selected?

Encoding?

I am new to coding, and I would like to find out whether the attached file is either corrupt or encoded. I am helping my neighbour with a problem. It started when he tried to resolve the problem himself! I dont really know what he did, but Windows had to be reset to the laptop factory defaults. Before though, I backed up all his stuff with Ubuntu, but when I checked the Documents backup, some were either corrupt or encoded. (I apologise if I am wasting time.) Could anyone shed any light on this?

I have an HP printer that has worked fine until recently.  the printer is seen in the control panel under devices.  If I troubleshoot,  no problems are  found.  The HP software says the printer is ready and it will print a txt file, als a page on Chrome or IE 8,  But when I try to print a Word doc or excel file, the program freezes.  I have uninstalled all of the drivers and reinstalled them.

I also connected the printer to a laptop running Windows 8. It works fine.

Invert selection shortcut for Word 2007

References on footnotes

Posted: 29 Oct 2013 03:34 AM PDT

Hi,

I'm having some issues on the way Word 2010 orders the bibliographic references on the footnotes.

So, I have references through all the document itself and also in the footnotes (e.g. footnote 1. Specification limits can be reviewed in [29])

Word updates the reference list and serializes the items by the order they actually appear into the document, however it just ignores the references in the footnotes.

For instance, even if the next reference (which appears on a footnote) is supposed to be number 10, Word assigns the last possible reference number after checking all the document. So, rather than insert [10], it inserts like [29] or so..

I already tried to CTRL+F9 an update all the indexes but it didn't do much..

Thanks for your attention,
DSDV


Building a report pack in Word 2013 from other document types

Posted: 29 Oct 2013 03:19 AM PDT

I am trying to build a single workbook or pack for our executive team based on information sourced from a variety of document types - e.g. Excel, Powerpoint and in some cases Visio.

Currently I would send a big Excel workbook with large data sets hidden in some worksheets and from where graphs and statistics are displayed - to users to get their comments into the various worksheets in a comments cell and then only once I get them back to then save it into PDF for submission to our Executives.

Then over and above the Excel report we'll get other data or reports in Word or Powerpoint and sometimes even Vision that would somehow need to added into the final report - currently it is separate and you quickly loose context once trying to go through the packs.

Is there an EASY way of combining these into a single Word file automatically? Copying and pasting images into Word does work but it's not sustainable.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards
PIeter

Somewhat laborious, but at least you'd get the chords done.

Hi Walter,

Ooops, I can't open it either.
 

Ah, that's the problem. The process I described works only for files
that are initially saved as odt. The word format (.doc) is a binary
format. You can not "trick" this format with this workaround.

I'm sorry, but I don't think, that there is a way to save your work. I
guess, you don't have a backup of your file, so that you don't have to
redo all the work?

A fine comment!

Again, apologies for any annoyance caused by my off-key comments earlier.

Despite appearances, I am not some raving anti-American, nor am I a 'BBC English' pedant.
I am someone, however, who believes that there is value in accurately conveying
instructions. To that end, localisations (localizations?) for any language with a lot of
diversity (whether American, French, Spanish or whatever), is needed.

It's a pain for developers, but it leads to a more accessible end-product. Whether it's done
by 'translating' American to British (plus NZ, Canadian, etc), or using short, simple
sentences that (hopefully) are clear to all concerned, it up to those writing the material in
question.

Have a nice day, y'all ;-)

OED uses "Formulae" as plural for a mathematical formula and "Formulas" for non-

It's a complex issue. I do think the American rule for plurals (put an S on the end, forget all
this Latin nonsense) is far more consistent.

However, my issue is not really spelling - it's grammar, idioms, etc. Sentences that the
make perfect sence to my American friends do not make sense to me and I refuse to try to
use their way of expressing myself unless I have to - simply because I am likely to get it
wrong. I've had too many conversations with either me or them saying, "What I take from
that is....", and one of us having mis-understood something seemingly simple.

And that is why I dislike the trend in software to lump all derivitives of the language spoken
in England together or to assume that people in the UK (or Canada, NZ, SA, etc) are
wannabe Americans.

So, having had a week of translating between American and British at work, and seeing a
download link for "OOo 3.3.0 English (UK)" lead to a 404, I was understandably
disappointed. Being told "Would American do for you instead" was annoying. However,
apologies if I sounded off-key in earlier posts.

If you really do want to create text from a single row of a table, you can select the row, then cut
or copy it, then paste somewhere outside the table. That will give you a one-row table which you can
then Convert to Text.
