Can't save Word Document

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 02:58 PM PST

I have a 30 day trial for Office 365. Can not save a word document or import photo into Publisher. What is my problem?

Possible to program a macro that prints various Word docs in various quantities?

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 11:48 AM PST

At the close of each semester I must print out a set of course evaluations for each of our classes. I have a Word document that is merged with an Access account I created, where for any given semester it can create a merge for each class, filling in the teacher's name, course title, course code, semester, etc. at the top.

I'd like to take this a step further. In the Access database, in addition to the teacher's name, course code, etc. I also have the number of students enrolled in the class. How would I program a macro that can take the quantity of students and automatically print that number of copies for that class?

Thank you for your help.

Problems with 2013 Microsoft

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 10:47 AM PST

I recently got a new computer with Microsoft Word 2013.  I had 2010 on my old computer.  I was told they were compatible.

When I open a file from 2010 in the Microsoft Word 2013 it changes all my quotation marks to @# to weird symbols.  It changes my apostrophe to = the equal sign.  

How do I fix this??

I can't open any of my Office Programs.

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 10:38 AM PST

I recently bought Office 2013 about a month ago and it installed without a hitch. Then 2-3 days ago it just stopped working. When I click on a saved Word document or try open a new one this message comes up "Sorry, something went wrong and Word was unable to start. (2)". This is really annoying because I really need to use Word as I have lots of work and revision to do for my Exams at the end of this year and I don't have £100 to spend on another Office booklet thing. If you know how to fix this please help out, much appreciated. GrantVolrath

Problems with emailing a Word 2013 Document to Outlook.com

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 09:52 AM PST

Hello,


I was trying to attach a Word 2013 document to a co-worker. But when I did click on share and the email attachment, I get a message saying "Word couldn't send email because of MAPI failure: Unspecified Error". I should mention to that I have an Outlook.com account, and I am only trying to send one email. So how do I connect Word 2013 to Outlook.com so that there will not be any problems sending Word documents?


Problem creating Mailing Labels in Word Mail Merge (only the first label prints)

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 09:12 AM PST

Hi, Its holiday time and I am trying to create a set of mailing labels.  My addresses are in in Excel, (Columns are Title, First, last, Street and City/State/zip).

I created the label template in Word using the Avery Number, and added <Address> to the first label.  All subsequent labels show <Next Record>.  Preview seems to work, it displays the first label and I can step through the names one at a time.  However, when I select create and print, all I get is the first label at the top of the page.  The other 29 labels are blank.  There are no empty rows or columns in my address list,  How do I get it to print all of the labels on the page?

Excel 2013 and Word 2013 Won't Load Files from Hard Drive

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 08:11 AM PST

I just installed the 2013 Office Pro suite and I'm having problems with Excel 2013 and Word 2013. They open okay, but when I try to load a Word Doc or Excel File from my hard drive I get the error that Word/Excel has stopped working and get to either select Quit Program or Search for Solution and Quit Program. When I double click at existing Word or Excel file on my system, I get the same error and Word/Excel won't load at all. I've tried the Program Repair feature, but that didn't fix the problem. Nothing comes up off the internet search to fix this issue.  My Excel 2010 and Word 2010 still work just fine so I'm using those until I get 2013 fixed. Can someone please help?

saveas not working in WORD VBA

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 08:03 AM PST

I recently upgraded from Vista to Windows 8. A WORD 2007 macro stopped processing the "saveas" command. Here is the syntax I am using, that worked fine in Vista:

 

    ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:=TxtSalva, FileFormat:= _
        wdFormatText, LockComments:=False, Password:="", AddToRecentFiles:=True, _
        WritePassword:="", ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, EmbedTrueTypeFonts:=False, _
         SaveNativePictureFormat:=False, SaveFormsData:=False, SaveAsAOCELetter:= _
        False

In Windows 8, this code line causes it to opens the File Picker dialog with blank filename field:

 

 

although the behaviour should be to save my TXT file with the name in TxtSalva variable and move to the next code line.

 

Could anyone help?

 

Thanks in advance, Alex

2010 Word Track Changes

I have a document to which I have already made changes.  Additional changes are required, but the original changes also need to remain visable as changes (i.e. red, underlined copy for new language, bubbles for deletions, etc.).  How do I keep the original changes and add new ones so the second set of changes is differentiated from the first?

Printer settings not saving

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 07:37 AM PST

I have a user that is trying to print a Word 2013 document.  When you look at the printer properties in Word the paper says heavyweight paper.  When you change it to use any other kind of paper it will not save the setting.  The default printer properties says automatically select.  I even changed it to use plain paper and when you open any word document it still says heavyweight paper.

any ideas?

Spacing Before and After doesn't seem to be cumulative in Word 2013

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 07:11 AM PST

Word 2013's default paragraph spacing Before is 0, After is 8, and line spacing is multiple at 1.08. 

  1. If I increase Spacing Before from 0 to 8, shouldn't the spacing between paragraphs then be cumulative to 16 pt? It isn't and I'm wondering why not.
  2. Also, how does the check box "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style play into this? 
  3. Is the After setting or is the Before setting cumulative with the line spacing setting?
  4. Does the default font size of 11 pt. play into any of this?

  1. When I set double spacing, why does the At box show nothing?
  2. Should the spacing before and after settings be cumulative as well for double spacing?

Here are some examples in which the first two paragraphs have Before of 0 and After of 8 and the second two paragraphs have Before of 8 and After of 8. I see no change.

Table flowing Horizotnally

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 03:06 AM PST

I have one document.
In middle of the document I have one table with two small columns. 
Is it possible to make this table with Four Columns and table to flow on the right hand side.

Is this possible?

BuildingBlockEntries issue

Posted: 25 Nov 2013 02:47 AM PST

Dear experts,

I am trying to get the pages of my documents numbered via macro (having a small triangle at the bottom far left-hand side of the pages).

I have simply recorded a macro and when I am inserting it in my code, when I arrive at the BuildingBlockEntries line, it give me error "the request member of the collection does not exist".

My building block template/add-in is enabled in word options, what I am doing wrong?

Here is the code:

 

ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.BuildingBlockEntries("Triangle 1").Add _
        Where:=Selection.Range, RichText:=True     'this is the line giving problems
    Selection.HeaderFooter.Shapes("AutoShape 2").Select
    Selection.Font.Color = -587137025
    Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.ObjectThemeColor = _
        wdThemeColorBackground1
    Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.TintAndShade = -0.15
    Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Visible = msoTrue
    Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Solid
    Selection.Font.Name = "Calibri"
    Selection.Font.Size = 28
    Selection.Font.Bold = True

 

Thanks you very much for your help!

Kind regards

How do I backtrack from Word 2013 to 2010?

Posted: 24 Nov 2013 06:48 PM PST

Just got a new Windows laptop and had all my Word files transferred to it.
Come to start working with it and discovered that I have Word 2013 installed.
Hate it passionately, from the New Brutality graphics to the sign-in nonsense
to the whole concept of an online word processing program. (I also hate the term
"word processing" but that's because I am a writer and a cranky old lady to boot.)
All my writing files were done with Word 2010. I don't love it as much as I did WordPerfect, of blessed memory, but it's much preferable to this new mess.
So: how would I downgrade from 2013 to 2010 without losing data or corrupting files, or giving myself a heart attack?
Any suggestions would be deeply appreciated.

Microsoft Word is crashing!

Microsoft Word is crashing every time I try to open the thesaurus or use define. I have tried to use the options stated on a previous thread "Word 2013 Crashes by clicking thesaurus or define" posted November 3rd, but I had no luck with receiving a useful response. I am using Windows 8.1 and Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013. I am obviously not the only person with this issue...I really thought Microsoft would have had a fix for this by now. Please help with this problem. It works just fine in PowerPoint.

Microsoft Word - Stopped Working

In the middle of Using Word 2007 to create a document, I received a message that said MS Word has stopped working... A LIE... It continued to work to remove all revisions to the work that I had completed.  No back-up document, just delete all changes that I made since opening the document.   I can't believe that it didn't create some kind of restore point.  The software deleted more than an hour's work !

Creating Footer causes Header "box" to become too large

Posted: 24 Nov 2013 09:08 AM PST

In Word 2002 (Office XP), if I paginate starting on page 1 it appears as 1/2" deep narrow Header box with page number in it.  BUT on same page 1, when I create a one-line footer, then on Page 2 the Header box becomes 4 inches deep.  It is empty except for the small page number at the top, but the text on that page WON'T start until below the 4-inch empty new box caused by the footer (and there's no way to make that 4-inch box less deep like it is on Page 1).  AND, all Word doc's (NEW files) I try to create now will NOT start text until below that 4-inch empty Header box created on the completely unrelated File I just described.  Is there any way I can fix this?  I can't afford the time or money to update my Word at this time, and I'm in the middle of editing a book and the deadline is looming.  Please help me if you can!!

Is there any way that I can add a Format Style to my Citations and Bibliography.

I do not mean Citation Style (APA, MLA etc.), but things like a different font, italics and so forth.

The citation (in particular) takes on the style of the text being cited and so does not stand out from it.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Word 2003 (and any Office app) error on opening - Microsoft Office Word has stopped working

Posted: 24 Nov 2013 02:47 AM PST

Windows 8
Microsoft Word 2003

Recently, opening Word 2003 has become a problem. 

If I want to open the application directly, I get this error "Microsoft Office Word has stopped working".
However, if I click on a DOC file, Word opens and is usable.

I found these:
1. The problem appears if Word is opened with the task pane on. If I cancel that from Options, Word will open. 
2. If Word is open (without the task pane) and I attempt to click on Shared Workspace, it will provide the same error.
3. The same behaviour is shown by Excel.

That led me to think:
1. It is a problem throughout the Office Suite, not only related to Word.
2. It might have to do with the network connection or with Word's relation with the Internet Explorer.

I repaired both Word and IE (the latter even reset, uninstalled and reinstalled), but the problem remains.

What can I do to nail it?

How do I select an image in Word 2007?

Posted: 23 Nov 2013 11:17 PM PST

I wish to insert an image in a w07 document, write a caption for it, and encapsulate both in a frame.
I use Ribbon --> Insert --> Picture to place the image in the document and right-click on what I can see of it.
I select Format Picture --> Layout --> In-line with text.
All I get to see of the image is a strip the height of one Normal paragraph, and I cannot select it.  The Blue background goes straight from the paragraph below the image to the paragraph above the image.  No blued image.  Consequently, I cannot wrap it in a frame.

What do I have wrong?


autotext and templates in win 8.1

Posted: 23 Nov 2013 10:57 PM PST

I've just bought a new computer with win 8.1 and first wasted ages trying to find out why it never reboots from restart and sometimes from cold (no help from MESH computer technical support), but then found it was a known problem!

The next problem is how to get my autotext and templates from Word 2010 from my xp computer to my new win 8.1. I had templates in Templates (including normal.dot), and an autotext file in Word/Startup (this contains all my addresses), but if I simply copy them into the appropriate places in User etc\Microsoft/Roaming, Word says it can't open them, then asks if i want to save changes to normal,dot and says I can't save with the same name and doesn't give an option to do anything else except cancel save. In addition, I can't access these files I've installed or delete them, as it says I don't have permission. I found how to show Administrator, but still couldn't access them, so had to re-install a pre-Word installation backup, but now don't want to try again before I find out how to do this, as I've already wasted masses of time on it. Any ideas?

Just for interest (my main concern is the one above), presumably it uses a normal.dot, but where is it?

Removing word wrapping: Best approach? (For ereaders)

Posted: 23 Nov 2013 05:19 PM PST

I use an ereader a lot but formatting documents for it is often a challenge.  I have some reference documents, not available in typical ereader format, that I need to convert manually.  The originals were mobi and pdf.  So I just copied the text into a word processing program and am now trying to eliminate all the word wrapping breaks.  Otherwise, on the ereader, lines are segmented.  To do this manually will take an eternity.  So are there programs that do this?  Is there a term for this?  Sort of batch type formatting conversion of a document.  I think I may have just copied the text into Notepad with Word Wrap off and that seemed to work OK but then I lost some of the formatting (like italics).  


If you use an ereader you quickly realize that you want a fresh slate so to speak so you can choose font type, text weight/sharpness/etc, zero margins to use the maximum amount of screen space (always lacking in an ereader!) and a few other things.  The point is you want your document to be controllable as much as possible.  So you don't want any formatting from the past interfering with what you want to do.  Things like italics are important to preserve for most people but, at least for me, that's about it.  Otherwise its just the words that matter.  


Closure of document recovery causes Microsoft Word to stop respond

Posted: 23 Nov 2013 04:27 PM PST

Hi,

 

I am facing a problem with Microsoft Word 2013.

 

Every time I open Microsoft Word 2013, the document recovery appears with a list of documents. Whenever I try to close the document recovery, Microsoft Word becomes not responding. I don't get the chance to choose the options [Yes, I want to view these files later OR No, remove the files. I have saved the files I need.] as Microsoft Word just stop responding every time at this stage.

 

Please kindly advise!

I think who you don't understand what is the problemn.

Last draft the application flow:
1. The user open a Opportunity record and edit some data then he submit the
changes
2. The PostUpdate are fired.
3. I get the OrigObjectXML and calculeted some fields based on other
fields...
4. Into my PostUpdate I call the Update method of the CRMOpportunity class.
5. This call fire again the PostUpdate method and we are in a recursive
infinit loop!

Now you understand the PostCallout issue?

Than you for your attention, Matt.

Security: Append To & Append

Posted: 04 Aug 2004 01:00 PM PDT

Are we sure we've got this right?

The definitions provided seem to run counter to the documentation.

Here is what the SDK (CRM Object Model | CoreSystems Management | Actions on Objects) says:

Append - Objects can be added to the object in question. For example, a note can be added to an opportunity if the caller has Append rights on the opportunity.

Append To - Append To is the opposite behavior from Append. In this case, the object in question can be appended to another object. For example, a note can be attached to an opportunity if the caller has Append To rights on the note. (Append To can also be thought of as "Attach").

To use Ilana's anaology: we would need Append on the wall and Attach (AppendTo) on the Post-It.

I guess the only way to know for sure is to test. I will try to do so later today and let you know what I find out.

here is the definative word on APPEND and APPENDTO

What exactly do the Append and Append To privileges provide to the user above the Write privilege?

Resolution

Below is an example and some definitions that will provide information on these privileges.

Joe User needs to accomplish two things:

1. Joe needs to change the Mobile Phone Number for one contact, Syed Abbas.

2. Syed is the purchasing manager for Bike Universe. Joe also needs to associate Syed's contact record with the Bike Universe Account.

Write privileges should be granted to users that need the ability to add or change information to the record. Changing a Contact's (Syed's) Mobile Phone Number or City are examples of how Write privileges are used.

Append Privileges are used when the specific record needs to be associated with another record. If Joe User has Append Privileges on Contacts, he has the potential ability to associate or add a Contact Record (Syed) to an Account record (Bike Universe), for example.

Append To Privileges are used when the user needs to be able to append other records to a specific record. Joe User also needs the Append To privilege on Accounts in order to associate or add the Contact (Syed) to the Account (Bike Universe).

Ilana:

I spoke without testing but I got my example out of the Installation and Configuration Study Guide for v1.2 (page 425).

If I get a chance I will try to test this tomorrow.

I think it might be the other way around.

To attach a note to a case, you'd need "AppendTo" on cases, "Append" on notes. (Or, as I always think of it, AppendTo on the wall, Append on the Post-It.)

Sylvie:

Append - you can append other records to this record type

Append To - this record type can be appended to another record type

Example: You need to attach a Note to a Case. You need to have the "Append" privilege on Case and the "Append To" privilege on Note

Cert. for non ISV's?

The best exam prep is to attend an instructor led course as you will get the
complete training manuals. If not you need to contact a CRM partner to order
them for you. The exam does make extensive use of the material in the
manuals so these are your best resource in combination with experience on
the product itself.

John,

It's logging onto the APS server in the first place that has prompted this
error. I have not made it that far yet as to saving the report onto the
server as the error is perventing me from logging in.

how to pass param in URL (isv.config)

Posted: 02 Aug 2004 12:21 PM PDT

Hi John,

I tested this with a simple piece of ASP to itterate through the QueryString
collection. This is what returns off Account:

oType - 1
oId - {1E5816A4-EF92-4446-BE6E-A2ABF231A88D}

Only the two.
