Thanks for the response, but I don't think so. I am using Suite 2002, and I
saw a similar problem address with a download, which was dated 2002., and it
didn't solve the problem. I had to go ahead and uninstall Explorer 7 for the
calander to print.

dbr msworks 8.0

Hi, Erick,

Speaking from the point of view of one who:
Uses Works 4.5a,
Creates databases from scratch,
Does not use database templates,
here is how I would attempt to eliminate unused database records.
I would left-click in the first cell of the first undesired record; then I
would scroll (please note that I would use the vertical scroll bar and the
horizontal scroll bar, not the mouse scroll button or the Page Down button.
It won't work if you do anything other than use the vertical scroll bar.)
down to the extreme right field and last line of the records to be deleted.
Having done that, I would hold down the CTRL key and click in the cell just
mentioned. All unused records should be highlighted (turned black). Then I
would go to the menu bar and select Record and click Delete Record. That
would be my solution. I hope it helps you.

Works 8.5--"Page x of y"

Posted: 11 Mar 2007 12:41 PM PDT

> I find it incredible that Microsoft would market a dedicated word processor, 

The Works programmers know about all these problems as Kevin told us,
but continue to cripple each and every version Works relative to the
former version. Perhaps they cannot do otherwise because of a policy
dictated to them....(?).

 

The format gallery is just a toy and made to work exclusively with the
MS templates. It shows that Works actually works with styles.
Nevertheless the users cannot use this important feature themselves if
they wish to. An important tool crippled.

It has nothing to do with "page x of y".
 

So much is certain: you are NOT incredibly stupid!

Works 8.5----"Page x of y"

Posted: 10 Mar 2007 01:18 PM PST

Dear Erik,

Members of the Works product team have been reading users posts for
many years and have provided solutions, on numerous occasions! They
are aware of the user's concerns, many of which escalated with versions
after Works 4.x

Present mail merge operation does not support the requirements of many
users, and the Works team are certainly fully aware of the users'
concerns.

I thank you for your kind words - I do what I can, when I can, to offer
help to the users of Works, wherever they may be. ;-)

Schedule Validation

Posted: 18 Feb 2005 10:20 AM PST

I'd venture to say in most cases the PM won't have resources permanently
reporting to him. They may not even be temporarily transfered to be under
his control for the duration of the project, although they may be. He very
well may not even have the resource's managers, or anyone for that matter,
reporting to him. Some organizational specialists talk about "position
power" versus "political power." When someone exercises position power,
they are the boss and have the authority to directly mandate something be
done in a certain way. When one exercises political power OTOH, one
influences the outcome without having the direct position authority to
mandate it. But lack of direct position authority still doesn't mean that
the PM isn't the one that should be making the decisions about how the
resources are deployed. It only goes to the techniques he must use to get
those decisions implemented. It may well be that the pm "advises" senior
managment as to what the resources need to do and then the senior management
is the one with the authority to actually direct them to do it via the chain
of command. Buit in terms of what the resources end up doing, the end
result is the same regardless of whether the chain of command is one of the
direct exercise of authority or the result is achieved by the indirect
application of political influence.

You said
 

and you are absolutely correct. That is why I tell my students the most
important traits of a project manager include the ability to formulate
meaningful questions, the ability to seek out experts (including the
resources on the project) who have the answers, and the good sense to
actually listen to the answers they receive. But that doesn't negate the
fact that Harry Truman's sign "The buck stops here" should also be on their
desks. They shouldn't relinguish control to others who may have their own
agendas that run counter to the project's objectives. Seek out the best
advice one can find, but always be the one to decide whether to take it or
not.

My point is I can't imagine a PM being able to do the job without taking a
proactive approach to the structure of the work. The methods that one uses
to influence the outcome might take many different forms depending on the
nature of the organization. But the one thing that will be common to all
(successful) projects is the PM's understanding that he is tasked to be the
composer of the symphony and the conductor of the orchestra performing it
and not merely a sound engineer recording the performance.

Late Dates incorrect after indenting under Summary Task

Posted: 18 Feb 2005 06:35 AM PST

I'm not aware of any "bug" like you're describing. The total slack time of
a task is the amount of time it could be delayed without delaying the
project finish, in a nutshell. Imagine Summary Task A with subtasks A1
(3d), A2 (4d), & A3 (5d). The subtasks are not linked so they occur in
parallel, all starting the same day. Summary task A links to Summary X FS
and Summary X in turn links FS to the Finish milestone. What are the late
dates of A1, A2, & A3? Summary A's finish is determined by A3 so the late
date of A3 and Summary A are the same. Only if Summary A is delayed past
that point will Summary X be delayed, hence that is also the latest date it
can finish without delaying the project's finish. The late finishes of A1
and A2 are also that same date as A3 (which is also the late finish of
Summary A), since they could slip by 2 or 1 day respectively before they
delay the finish of Summary A. I think that is what you're describing in
your posting but where's the bug in that? That is exactly the way late
starts and late finishes are supposed to be calculated and that's the way
project does calculate them. And this is even with linking between the
summary tasks, which is often considered a bad idea. The alternative
linking would have A1, A2, and A3 all as predecessors to X1 and no links
directly in or out of the summary tasks themselves but the results are
exactly the same.

If I'm missing something here, please give us some concrete example that
demonstrates what you consider to be this bug - what Project gives you and
what you think it should be giving you instead (and why you feel Project is
wrong and your way is right). I'm really curious.

Missing Text when printing Gantt Chart

Posted: 17 Feb 2005 03:25 PM PST

My 'fit timescale to end of page' option was not set, and the problem still
occured. Also, because I set up my tasks grouped by areas, the task at the
bottom of the screen is not necessarily the one furthest to the right. Just
now, it still happened, but I found that if moved the screen left or right
and roughly centered the bottom task in the screen, then the problem went
away.

You just had to tweak it left and right until it worked. Once it worked it
stayed there until I ran a new filter.

This is quite a pain because I sometimes macro print a Gantt for each
resource, and I don't want to have to play with each prinout.

Times not calculating - Urgent!

Posted: 17 Feb 2005 10:49 AM PST

When you have a summary task and several subtasks under it, the duration of
the summary task is the amount of time between when the earliest subtask
begins and the latest subtask finishes. You summary is showing .5 hours
because all three of your subtasks start together, 2 of them finish 15
minutes later and 1 of them finished 30 minutes later. (This could be the
case if each worksheet is being worked on by a separate person and all of
them are working together, for example.) Thus the total time required all
three is 30 minutes, the time between when they all start (all at once) and
when the longest one finishes. If they are going to be done by ONE person,
she can't work on all of them at the same time. Instead, she'll do number 1
and when its finished do number 2 and when that one is finished do number 3.
To represent that sequence, create links from 1 to 2 to 3 so they are spread
out in order. Now the total of the summary will equal 1 hour because thet's
the total time between when she starts on number 1 and when she finishes
number 3, working on them one at a time.

Start versus Actual Start...

Posted: 17 Feb 2005 09:05 AM PST

K - you asked what the difference was between Start and Actual Start and the
answer is part of the root of your problem I suspect. The data tables in
Project are database table "under the hood" and the various columns you see
are fields in those table. When you look at the Entry table in the Gantt
chart (the default standard task list, in other words) you see, among
others, the Start, Finish, and Duration fields. (Think of those fields as
being Scheduled Start, Scheduled Finish, and so forth.) But when you change
the table (view, tables menu) to the tracking table you see columns labeled
Actual Start, Actual Finish, Actual Duration, Remaining Duration, Actual
Work, Remaining Work. Some other table options may show you Baseline Start,
Baseline Finish, Baseline Duraion, Baseline Work ... Using Start as an
example to keep the typing down -- Start and Actual Start (and the others)
are not the same fields relabeled in different views - they actually are
different fields in the database. The Start field is calculated by
Project - it represents the planned project as it sits at the moment. While
you're planning, Start is a calculated value, Actual Start and Baseline
start are empty. When you have the plan as you think you'll perform it the
Start field has the expected start dates of tasks, calculated by the network
of links, the expected duration of each task, and the project start date.
Hopefully you have NOT actually entered any of those dates by hand - you're
not supposed to tell Project when you want Task X to be done - instead, it's
supposed to be telling YOU when Task X is going to be able to be done.

So Project is now displaying a schedule that it has calculated - it has
looked at the start of the project and what you have told it about the
nature of the work and forecast the dates where tasks can occur. Mark the
word "forecast" - it's an important concept and explains some of Projects
behavior. The start and finish fields represent the forecast, the
scheduling of the latter tasks being driven by the scheduling of the early
tasks. Now, the plan is ready and you're going to start work. You want to
preserve the plan you expected to work for future reference so you save a
baseline. The values from the Scheduled xxx fields are copied into the
corresponding Baseline xxx fields - baselines don't change unless you
explicitly force them to while the Scheduled fields will so you always have
a reference point. Now Start = xxx, Baseline Start = xxx, Actual Start =
[empty].

Now we post some actuals - you DO NOT enter the date the task actually
started in the Start field. Instead, you record that in the Actual Start
field. Likewise the Finish. Project does two things - it records your
actuals AND it changes the Scheduled Start and Finish fields (the plain
Start and Finish, in other words) to be equal to the Actuals. Why? Because
the schedule of tasks out in the future is contingent on the schedule of
tasks that come before them. If the earlier tasks are worked at times
different from what was first planned, the subsequent tasks whose schedule
is dependent on them must be revised accordingly. But just changing the
Start and Finish fields in the Gantt chart entry table does NOT tell
project what you did - it tells it you're changing what you expect to do but
you haven't done it yet. That fact that those dates you're entering are
before today doesn't enter into it because Project doesn't really know what
day it is today. So when you're halfway through the Project, the Gantt
chart reflects two types of data - what really did take place for work that
has been done, and a revised forecast for the schedule of tasks still to
come, the revised schedule based on what you've told it is the actual start
and finish of those completed tasks. So how do you know what the original
plan was? By looking at the Baseline Start, Finish etc fields. Because
when you enter Actual Start, Project changes the Scheduled Start but it does
NOT change the Baseline Start.

Showing % complete on baselines

Posted: 16 Feb 2005 11:29 PM PST

What if your baseline was, say 10 days. Now you've begun work and after 5
days you realize that it will take another 15 days before you finish it. In
other words your original schedule was off and it really should have been 20
days. As of this point your task is 25% complete. But 5 days represents
50% of your baseline. Are you saying you want the baseline taskbar to show
that the task is 50% complete, not the 25% it really is????

Combining Resource and Task Tables

Posted: 16 Feb 2005 02:59 PM PST

Hi Renee,

The FAQ I gave the address of explains it all, and the fact that you re
still "trying" means apparently you did not read the FAQ.
There is no such thing a a resource visible in the task usage view.
What you see in the Tak usage view (and in the Resource Usage View!) are
ASSIGNMENTS.
Assignments have custom fields of their own.
If you want to show data from a resource custom field in the asignment
custom fields you have to copy the data, either manually or through a VBA
macro.
Manually, you can insert the field in the resource usage view and copy it
from the resource to the assignment lines (f.i. by Ctrl+D). It will then be
visible in the Resource Usage view a well.
There is an example of VBA code in the FAQ.
HTH

MS Project Actual vs Planned duration and effort

Posted: 16 Feb 2005 01:57 PM PST

The is a bit of a problem here in that I'm not sure if you're clear on the
distinction between work/effort hours and duration hours but assuming you
are, here's how you would go about it. Enter the Actual Start and Actual
Finish dates for what they are and Actual Work as 16 hours. The actual
duration is the amount of time when work *could* have taken place between
the start and finish, whether it did or not, and will be calculated when you
enter actual start and actual finish. The result would be: Actual start=
whatever; Actual Finish = 3 workdays later; Actual Duration = 24 hours;
Remaining duration = 0 hours; Actual Work = 16 hours; Remaining Work = 0
hours.

This is not a usual error. It sounds like you still have Office 2004 or

Setting Up Word 2008

Hi

To make a custom toolbar do the following:

1. From the View menu choose Customize Menus and Toolbars
2. Click the New button and then enter a name for your toolbar
- a very small empty toolbar will appear. You may have to look closely
at the screen because it is only a placeholder big enough for one
toolbar button
3. Click the Commands tab of the Customize menus and toolbars dialog box.
4. Drag individual commands to your new toolbar

In the Customize dialog box, near the lower left there's a pop-up menu
that lets you choose to save your new toolbar in either Normal (Word's
default template) or the current document, which could then be saved a
sa a template if you like.

You can make as many custom toolbars as you like.

When you're done making a toolbar, click the OK button in the Customize
dialog box to close it. Then you can toggle your toolbars on and off
using the View > Toolbars menu.

You can swap toolbars from one open document or template to another
using Format > Styles > Organizer.

You can change the way a toolbar button appears on a toolbar by
right-clicking or control-clicking a toolbar button and choosing
Properties. You can dispaly the icon, text, or both. You can paste new
button pictures for your toolbar icons this way, too.

As you can see, Word gives you a lot of flexibility when working with
toolbars.

Sorry, but I don't have any word on how the extra languages are going to be
rolled out. The Japanese version is the only one released other than
English. I'm sure they are working hard on getting them out.

Try to take the experience from this update to either wait a few days before
updating or have a backup of the Office folder that you can revert to if
there is a problem.

How to Change Office 2007 UI to Look Like 2003?

Posted: 03 Aug 2009 05:05 PM PDT

Hi,

keep in mind that this newsgroup is designed specifically for Office for
Mac. We've already got enough work on our hands to support that version (and
its numerous iterations, on many different versions of Mac OS X). There are
some MVPs who work cross-platform and who use Office 2007 on a regular
basis, but unless they provide an answer, you will have to ask your question
elsewhere. Keep in mind that you can also access newsgroups related to
Office for Windows via your favourite newsgroup reader, so there is actually
no need to visit one of the many poorly designed web interfaces.

If this is of any help: as far as I know, there is no way to switch back to
the Office 2003 interface. I don't know if it is possible at all to modify
the Office 2007 interface, but if it is, it will certainly involve a lot of
programming.

Initial Install CRM Problems.

Posted: 24 Aug 2004 09:01 AM PDT

Can you make sure that you are:
Domain Admin - On the domain the CRM is going to be installed. not across
domain or forest
Local Admin - On the box that you are installing CRM
SQL Admin

If that is true, then this is probably some other issue.

Crystal Reports for CRM

Posted: 24 Aug 2004 08:56 AM PDT

Good call Stephen.

When I look at "Show SQL Query" for the CRM table, this is what I see:

<fetch version="1.0" output-format="xml-platform" mapping="logical">
<entity name="account">
<attribute name="name" />
</entity>
</fetch>

Whereas the financial app table is straight T-SQL.

I suppose I could try to create a copy of my financial app table within the
MSCRM database,refresh it nightly, and run my reports directly in CRM. But I
think this would fall into the category of a "not supported" customization.
Still, I wonder, has anyone tried this?

Relabeling buttons

Posted: 22 Aug 2004 07:31 PM PDT

That archive article helped greatly. Only now, I've changed the Sales button
and the Accounts buttons to be Client Service and Relationships. However,
when I go into the accounts and tell it to view My Active, Inactive, and
Active, the word Accounts is still in that rather than Relationships. I
searched the dll files and could not locate where the word "Accounts" was for
that to change it to Relationships as well. Any idea where that is? Is this
going to be in the aspx pages somewhere?

Thanks for your help.

Mass Emailing Issue(s)

Thanks Paul thats actually a pretty good idea which shouldnt be hard to
change the view on, i didnt even think of setting up a view by no-email.
I wonder if I can do it with the no-contact option too. Exporting to
excel and sending through a BCC group in outlook will work fine its only
500 messages so its not like some super mass email. It would be nice to
track the results though in the CRM so we know what works for marketing
guys.. but not the end of the world.
