| Conditional Formatting a Word Document with Merged Fields from an Excel Document Posted: 08 Nov 2013 02:02 PM PST Hi, I've tried to read the answers to similar questions and I don't understand all of the formatting slang so I'm asking my own question. I have a word document that includes merged fields from an Excel file. I have used the "insert merge field" command in word to merge the appropriate fields from my Excel file. These fields have conditional formatting in Excel as follows: if the number in the cell is 40 or higher, the cell will filled in with yellow; if the number is 10 or lower, the cell will be filled in with blue. I would like to get the same result in my word document. Can someone give me simple, step-by-step instructions to do this in the word document? Thanks A LOT in advance. Mark B. |
| Posted: 08 Nov 2013 01:12 PM PST I have been trying to open files in Word and Excel for the last hour and keep getting a pop up saying Office can not be used right not because we are busy or updating. Is this normal? Very frustrated I can't get into my files. |
| Which fonts were omitted from 2003 ? Posted: 08 Nov 2013 12:57 PM PST I need to know the fonts that are no longer in Word 2010, because I think that caused a change in a brochure, which makes it not useable as it is. |
| Brochure does not open correctly in 2010 Posted: 08 Nov 2013 12:51 PM PST change in font when opening trifold brochure created in Word 97-2003. Moves all -- 3 pages now instead of 2. Want to print from old, how do I make look the way it was? If I ever get it right without having to redo the whole thing, will PDFing it keep it? |
| Using controls and conditional formatting Posted: 08 Nov 2013 12:33 PM PST This would be for Word 2010. I have a two-page letter that has one paragraph that changes per subject category and action. I have four categories with checkboxes. I have four actions with checkboxes. Depending on which box is checked for the category and then which is checked for the action would determine the paragraph that would pop up in the letter.
Any idea how this can be done?
Thanks! |
| Posted: 08 Nov 2013 12:06 PM PST Whenever I print a letter, which has a header and a footer, I always get an extra paper printed. This is a waste of paper. Also, whenever I construct a header and a footer on a single letter head, the footer get copied to the second and third page, when I scroll down. Please help me to correct these problems. Thanks |
| How do I detect if a save is manually by the user (Save button or CTL+S) or called by AutoSave? Posted: 08 Nov 2013 12:02 PM PST I do not want cancel the "BeforeDocumentSave" event if an autosave. How do I determine if it is an autosave? |
| Dialog box pops open when a template doc is opened. Posted: 08 Nov 2013 11:37 AM PST Hi, I'm using a template document, and editing it. When I open it to edit by right clicking open, the dialog box does not come up. Once I'm happy with the .dot document and save it, I go to double click to open it as Document 1.doc, and this box pops up.  I have no idea how to get rid of this box. The only thing I have done is basically retype the entire document into a brand new word window which is obviously not ideal. I do run Word 2007, however, I have to save as .dot / .doc as some staff uses word 2003, and it seems to work better. |
| Posted: 08 Nov 2013 10:34 AM PST I just helped a student download microsoft office 2010 to their Acer laptop. Before the installation we uninstalled the trial version of windows on his computer. After we downloaded office he then tried to open word2010 and got the error message in the subject line:
the exception unknown software exception (0xe0000002) occured in the application at locatino 0x75aec41f.
What steps can be taken so that he can use Word 2010? Everything else works fine including: Access, powerpoint etc.
When I click on Word what happens is I get a "User Account Control" message asking "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes on this computer? Program name : Microsoft Word/Verified Publisher: Microsoft Corp/File Origin:Hard drive on this computer
I then try to open a file that was started in word and this message occurs: Microsoft word is trying to recover your information. This might take several minutes.
Then I get Microsoft word has stopped working: A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. |
| How to find words marked "Do not check spelling or grammar"? Posted: 08 Nov 2013 10:16 AM PST There must be a way to find words you've marked "Do not check spelling or grammar" under Language | Set Proofing Language. I say "must" because such words are noted under Language in Reveal Formatting. Ordinarily you'd wait until almost your last step in laying out pages before you'd mark such words (to prevent Word from carrying a whole line over to the next page). However, revisions happen. It would be handy to be able to sweep through a file and quickly find such words. I tried cancelling all such markings, but selecting an article and turning off "Do not check spelling or grammar" has no effect on words already so marked. They could, I suppose, be given an unusual, visible attribute for finding and removing later. |
| Applying Changes / Additions to Word Styles to "Old" Documents Posted: 08 Nov 2013 09:33 AM PST I have made a lot of changes to my styles and even added and deleted other styles. How do I automatically/en masse apply the new/changed styles to already existing documents? I am familiar with VBA if that helps. TIA |
| Posted: 08 Nov 2013 09:05 AM PST Just "upgraded" to Office 2013. When I open a file in Compatibility Mode, the document displays normally. If someone sends me a file that was (presumably) created not in Compatibility Mode, every paragraph has a squiggly border. How do I get rid of that border once and for all? |
| 'Find and Replace' Font question. Posted: 08 Nov 2013 08:45 AM PST Hi I wonder if anybody can help. I use Word Starter 2010. I translate using a specialist font 'Gardiner' which uses two characters (U+A723 and U+A725) that do not appear in most fonts such as Ariel. Before uploading what I've done I have to do a mass 'find and replace' to replace these symbols with others. Unfortunately I don't seem to be able to change the font used in Microsoft's 'Find and replace' dialogue which means that I cannot use that dialogue to find and replace them - is it possible to change the font used in this dialogue? I havealready tried changing teh font in the normal template. Ned |
| Desktop shortcut icons for Word files Posted: 08 Nov 2013 07:58 AM PST I have created desktop shortcut items for several of my files. Suddenly, the other day, they stopped working, and the files won't open from them. Also, I can no longer move the icons around on the desktop; they will not respond to the mouse at all. I don't know what I did or how to undo it. |
| Posted: 08 Nov 2013 07:24 AM PST Hi! my office (2010) is crashes whenever I use the equation editor of the word. For example, I opened it (alt+=) and just wrote "=", and it was crashed. I don't know what to do as it worked before and since this week it doesn't... Perhaps it is related to the Windows 8.1 I installed (instead of windows 8)? What can I do? Thanks, Neta |

| Posted: 08 Nov 2013 06:43 AM PST Hello Please could someone explain why the source added to the document via Add a Placeholder route and then Edit the source doesn't appear on the Master List in the Source Manager? By default, all sources cited/created (using Add a new source) are showing automatically both in the Master and Current list so there is never any need to copy any sources from the current list to the master list as all sources are already there. The source created via add placeholder seem to be an exception. I have read numerous tutorials on bibliographies and citations/sources but none of them states what is the reason for such source not appearing in the Master list. They all mention that it is possible to copy sources from current to master list and the other way round but the explanation is never provided. Would be very grateful for the response. Thanks Anna |
| Posted: 08 Nov 2013 06:29 AM PST I'm am curious if there is a way to turn off the open file feature in Word 10? It has a ridiculous amount of clicks to get to a file when all I want to do is open another doc quickly from a different file and/or drive. This feature has you clicking almost five times before you can get the dialogue box open. I used to be able to go straight to the dialogue box with the shortcut key or with two clicks (File>Open), which must have changed since it's not opening this simply now, or I have a setting that needs to be changed?
Thanks |
| Toolbar missing when opening documents containing tracked changes through interop Posted: 08 Nov 2013 06:21 AM PST The problem is that anytime a word document containing tracked changes is opened through the help of Interop the toolbar goes missing. All of the tabs like File are gone and there is no way to restore them. The only options available are the right click menu and minimize/maximize. The strange thing is that if you have word running already when you open the same document through Interop it doesnt get this problems and all the toolbars are fully visible. Same thing if you open the document without using Interop. The shortcut commands doesnt work either (Since the toolbar isnt even there). So my question is, what could cause this problem and has anybody had any similar experiences with Interop? |
| Office 2013 Running Slow and Laggy Posted: 08 Nov 2013 05:53 AM PST I have Office 2013 installed on two machines right now. One is an old underpowered laptop, and the other is my very recently built workstation with high quality components (read: fast computer). Lately, Office has been extremely laggy on my workstation; windows take several seconds to catch up when I move them, the file menu is AWFULLY slow to respond, and Excel tends to crash when I scroll down a sheet. Even Word will hang up for a few seconds when I scroll occasionally. It's not a problem with the computer itself, because all other programs run very smoothly. What confuses me is that on my old laptop everything runs perfectly fine! No lag, no crashing, nothing. I've reinstalled Office on the desktop, disabled hardware acceleration, started programs in safe mode, and disabled add-ons to try and get things running well but I've had no luck. Things seemed to slow down around when I upgraded to Windows 8.1, but my laptop is on that as well with no problems. Does anyone have any thoughts on what may be causing this? |
| Posted: 08 Nov 2013 05:24 AM PST On the downloaded free triql version of MS Office I can't open Word. Message "This App can't run on your PC". Other Office elements seem OK, Excel/PPoint/Outlook. PC is new and runs Windows 8 (not sure if 8 or 8.1). This suggests a problem with Word and isn't a great advert for MS Office - what is the fix for this? |
| Posted: 08 Nov 2013 04:14 AM PST I bought Office 365 Home Premium on 9/30/13 and installed it on 10/7/13. Somehow my laptop saw my download as the 30 day free trial and the software, supposedly, timed out on 11/2/13. I have my Product Key and would like some advice on getting this product downloaded correctly. |
| Posted: 08 Nov 2013 03:20 AM PST office 2013 came ready to use on my new Hp laptop (windows8). after using it successfully for a couple of times it suddenly will not open and a message saying "sorry a problem has occurred we couldn't start your program" comes up. it also suggests repairing office 2013 from the control panel but actually I cannot find it in the list of installed programs, please help. |

| Windows 8 / Office 13 REALLY???? !!!! Posted: 08 Nov 2013 01:14 AM PST Dear Microsoft - UGH.. ya know you guys always want to blame it on the end user--- "we don't know how to do things"... "we don't like change"... c'mon!!! REALLY??? - just step back for a moment and pretend you have respect for the people buying your products and writing to you ... --- I love learning new software and am hardly afraid of trying new things and I find making mistakes to be a learning experience. But Windows 8 is a Looooser!!!! And Office 13 is a SCAM!!! I am so very sorry I bought it and hope to heaven enough people complain so you will just get rid of it. Stop trying to compete with Apple and be Microsoft will ya. And YOUR Answer about Microsoft Picture manager being omitted from MS office suite was a very poor attempt to placate one of your customers, or should I say hostage - figuratively speaking! What a crock!! You insult us!!!! - Boy, you really have us don't you. We have to buy the only products you put out, we have to buy your updates and we HAVE to be signed into the internet or email account so that we can use our computers. I think you are awful people. I will return this computer and buy one from Craig's list or something. You should be absolutely ashamed of yourselves.. but you don't give a darn about your clients... you are making a ton of money and have partners like ... I don't know, who?? .... you tell us! So angry - you have no idea. Maybe APPLE IS the KEY to all this... after all, that is why you destroyed your brand.... to be more Apple like is it not??? BTW, YOU CAN be innovative and make a substantial profit without being an A _ _ !! Try it sometime. - and get the "kids" out of the decision making chair! |
| Help with Mailmerge to Individual Documents Posted: 08 Nov 2013 12:39 AM PST Hi
I am trying to mailmerge from an excel data file, with each record being saved as an individual document. We are running Office 2010.
I have downloaded the excellent add-in from Graham Mayor and all works fine, except for the filename.
All the documents are saved with the name NoName Record.... rather than the filename from the filename column in the data file.
Ive checked the format of the filename column - there are no illegal characters.
The filename is in the format CCC - NNCccN
where C is a character and N is a number.
I think I must be doing something obvious wrong, but don't know what!

| Posted: 07 Nov 2013 11:07 PM PST Hi all, This has happened a couple of times now, and i managed to fix it or it fixed itself the first time but i have no idea what is happening. Recently whenever I'm typing in Word 2013 (Professional Plus) it will at some time or another stop showing spaces. When i say this i don't mean they do not show up between words, or they appear as dots, but as i come to the end of a word and hit spacebar, the cursor will stay at the end of the word and not move on a space. It does not matter how many times spacebar is pressed, the spaces will not appear until a letter key is pressed. This is really frustrating me while I am writing essays for University and I'm watching a I type because i waste so much time thinking i haven't pressed the key properly and end up double or triple spacing and having to fix it! If anyone knows what Word is doing, or how to fix it, it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Peter |
| Cannot Call Distributed "Fix Text" windows out Posted: 07 Nov 2013 09:36 PM PST  Hi, May I know how to call the fix text windows when I highlight partially or full text & click on distributed button in Ms Office 2013 or Ms Office 2010? |
| How to retain italics, bold when applying styles in Word 2010 Posted: 07 Nov 2013 07:00 PM PST I understand that Word drops the character italics/bold, etc features if more than half of the paragraph appear as such. This is a real problem. I'm re-styling bibliographic references (to make them hanging indents) and most have a majority of italicized words in the lines. Some folks suggest a workaround of subbing ALL italics to highlights, applying the new paragraph styles (which usually wipe out the italics) and then subbing italics in at all the highlighted text. Please tell me there's a more efficient way. I've tried removing "Regular" from the font description in the paragraph style I'm using. that didn't work. and even when I took the time to apply direct formatting of the italicized words before applying the style, it was still wiped out. very frustrating. and a waste of time. can anyone help? |
| Posted: 07 Nov 2013 06:50 PM PST I have issues with my Windows 2010 it wont open it was fine and now it wont open. I have Windows 7 Home 64 bit. I have tried the registry way and delete the HKEY OFFICE 2014 DATA and allow the system to rewrite it. Didn't work. I tried to restart it in safe mode it wont open in safe mode. So I was told that a third party app may have messed with the registry. I've ran my security program didn't work still wont open. It states c://programfiles/microsoft office\office14\wwwlib.dll is either not designed to run on windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support. I've tried to reinstall but my computer for some reason wont delete and reinstall it. But anyway it wont work, but excel, access, powerpoint 2010 works and can access it. Please Help. |

| MSWord 2007 crashing after saving or "saving as" a document Posted: 07 Nov 2013 05:44 PM PST Hello! All of a sudden Word is crashing as soon as I try to "save as" a document.

| Microsoft Word "Not Responding" Posted: 07 Nov 2013 04:51 PM PST I've been using word recently, and I have found that every so often it stops working. It doesn't freeze as I would expect eg showing 'Not responding'. It just doesn't allow me to continue typing, or even click on the word document. I have to wait a minute or so for it to continue working. So far I haven't lost any of my work, however it's not convenient when trying to write an essay to keep stopping and waiting for it to work. I have windows 8 and microsoft 2013 and my laptop is under a year old, so I can't understand where the issue is coming from. Has anyone else had this issue? Does anyone know why it is occurring or how to solve it? |

| Posted: 07 Nov 2013 04:23 PM PST In 2010, when I use the Style Organizer, on the right side, it does not show all the styles in my normal.dotm It only shows Default Paragraph Font, Heading 1 thru 5, No List, Normal, Normal Indent, Table Normal. How do I get all the styles in Normal.dotm (global template) to show up? I've used the Style Organizer for years in 2007 and I always had all the styles showing. Thank you for your help. |
