2013 Calendar Templates in MS Word 2013

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 02:54 PM PST

Since the year 2014 will be upon us soon, is there a way to edit Word templates with the 2013 Monthly calendars, to reflect the year 2014? Most of the Calendar Templates are for 2013. I want to be able to change them to reflect the upcoming year 2014. I would appreciate any and all assistance with this minor problem.
Thank You.

Word 2003 and Default Email

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 02:52 PM PST

I have recently gone to Windows 8.  For my email program I use Incredimail.  I have been trying to make Incredimail the default when I try to send a document from Word.  The program is defaulting to something else.  I assume that it is Outlook.  Is there a fix for this problem?

Thanks,

printing problem with microsoft word

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 12:49 PM PST

After using Microsoft Word 2010 for several years I cannot print any word documents today.  Excel prints fine, Adobe prints fine.  I have unistalled and re-installed the printer, ran updates and tried scan doctor.  The printer does not seem to be the problem.  Any suggestions to fix the problem?  The microsoft website suggests deleting a word data key but says it could cause serious problems.  I am not very computer smart and scared to try this proceedure.  Any suggestions?

Word Mail Merge - adding one more merge fields for my Mail Merge

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 12:00 PM PST

The below structure is all most complete. But I am unable to add one more field.

Before the "Class_Description" field I need the "Class_Name" field then a space.

I have tried a number of ways to insert the "Class_Name" but nothing I do seems to get it to work. I get errors or data is missing when the merge is over.



This merge routine works without the "Class_Name".




Here is what it looks like after I run the Mail Merge.



This is great except I need my "class_name" a space then my Class_Description.

Any help would be Greatly appreciated!



Thanks, Jesseb

Macro with assign key doesn't work.

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 09:26 AM PST

Hello,

I have simple macro that shifts two wrong-typed letters. Like: form to from.
I have assign the key ALT+Z to the macro.

Code:
Sub Shift()
'
    Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
    Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
    Selection.Extend
    Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
    Selection.Cut
    Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
    Selection.PasteAndFormat (wdFormatOriginalFormatting)
    Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
End Sub

When I execute it from the macro meny it works OK, but when I try to use the assign key I get an error on Selection.Cut
Is there an explanation? What can I do?
I have other macros assigned to keys that works fine.

The macro is simple, but very useful.

Regards / Bengt

Jump lists not updating to show most recent/pinned

Posted: 29 Dec 2013 02:19 AM PST

This is a minor bug but I've got Word pinned in the superbar but when I right-click the icon to view the jump list with most recent documents and pinned recent documents it shows some older document I haven't worked on for a while (under Recent) but not the latest. Is there an easy fix for this? As I said it's minor but it slightly slows down the process of opening the recent files I'm after. I also tried pinning documents to no effect.

The result is the same in the jump list of the program pinned to the Start menu

Thanks

Microsoft Excel and Office

HELP HELP HELP!!! I purchased Office 2013 back in November.  After download and installing, every time  I attempted to open either or these programs I would receive a pop-up indicating "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify if a solution is available." with only options to "Close program".  So after numerous efforts to run a repair (both Quick and Online) I decided to uninstall and reinstall.  After these steps, I tried to reopen the Office program and my error message is to run the repair.  Following this process, I am not being informed I need a new version of Windows for compatibility (7 or higher).  This is a new desktop and Windows Version 8.

I trying to recreate a feature with Microsoft Word 2010 that I have with another software which is Word based.  I and using a template to create a report 6 x per day. Where I need to input information I have marked with XX.  Currently, I go through the  template and highlight with my mouse each XX and then type in the appropriate information.  For example  


The claimant is a xx xx xx who sustained a work-related injury on xx  to the xx. This occurred as a result of xx. The claimant underwent xx.  The submitted diagnosis for this request was xx and Dr. xx is requesting xx.


I am requesting a feature that allows me to move to each xx with it high lighted by pressing a function key.  In the other software where this works, the F11 and F12 buttons are used to move forward and back in that case using the @ signs,   This will allow me to fill in the information faster.  Does anyone know how I could accomplish this feat.  Jeff Bogosian, M.D.  DoctorFixYourBack.com for those with back pain after sitting:3-Step Relief in 5 minutes

But I also agree with Peter that it probably is an OEM version and therefore
you can't use it on another computer. It dies with the original computer.

Tring to reinstall Office Pro 2000

Mr. Buckland

I found the oanist.exe file in my "FrontPage 2002". I executed the
application and it did the trick. Unfortunately I have to re-install my old
FrontPage as a qualifing application. No big deal, I still have my old
"FrontPage 98" and "FrontPage 2000" (which is also an upgrade, they are just
plain cheaper, but a bigger pain in the but when things go wrong) if need be.
But I am still having problems with MS Office Pro 2000. I also still have my
old Office 97 disk (remember when it all fit on a single CD) and will try
that as well. Here is the message I am getting verbatim, "This patch package
could not be opened. Verify that the patch package exists and that you can
access it or contact the application vendorto verify that this is a valid
Windows Installer patch package."
Further help would be greatly helpful, Rick.

Posted: 09 Feb 2006 01:39 PM PST

Hi Nicole,

You can select text with your mouse in Internet Explorer, choose File=>Print Preview and then choose 'selection' as the item to
print.

In some cases the 'cutoff' pages are from choices in File=>Page Setup in Internet Explorer. If you are trying out the MS Internet
Explorer v7 Beta 2 product there are some print feature changes as well and there are also a number of 3rd party products that do a
sort of 'shrink to fit' on webpages. Recent Epson printers, for example include a utility to print webpages that appears as a
toolbar in Internet Explorer.

Sometimes web pages will print 'wider' than the page due to the design of that webpage (i.e. a specified/fixed width).

In addition to what JoAnn has said, when you install the pro edition after
uninstalling your trial version, Outlook should find the .pst file without
problems. Uninstalling Office never deletes your files that you created
using Office.

No. You need a "real" version, not a trial version. And as Bob pointed out,
what you'd be trying to do is a crossgrade, which you can't do, not an
upgrade.

Migrate Office to new internal hard drive

Hi Dr-art,

After backing up your files, uninstall, restart PC then install to new location is generally the path that will cause you the least
amount of problems later on.

If you have add-ins you're using you may need to reinstall those as well once you have Office running and updated.

Arabic is not supported in the Mac version of Word. There are other word

If you want the user interface to be respectively in English or German,

For the documents themselves, it shouldn't be an issue. You should be
able to specify the language in each account and get the proper proofing
tools to kick in when needed.
You could even create a default template in each account to
automatically get new documents to be in the language you need.
 

Well that's going to be hell to update for instance. I don't know what
would happen for the shared tools either.
Most of Office is in /Applications and you *could* move it to
~/Applications.
You also have a lot of little things in /Library and you can't move them
(well..... I wouldn't).

Updating is going to be a nightmare. The shared tools will also be in
the last language you installed.

Really a complicated experience.

Training in Office for Mac 2008

Posted: 25 Sep 2009 12:35 PM PDT

Just a hunch, but I suspect the teaching about Word in this class will
emphasis the "ribbon" in 2007. The "ribbon" is a great way to expose
functionality of Word and hence it's a great way to teach Word. I
remain unconvinced that it's a great way to understand and use Word.

If you want a course, and since the course is so convenient, then why
not. If you have a MacBook laptop, take it to the class and as the
instructor does something for the class, you independently look for same
on Word 2008. You'll probably learn a lot and learning how Word 2008
and Word 2007 are different while at the same time being alike will be
valuable knowledge.

I prefer Word 2008 as it's simpler than 2007. Word 2008 hearkens back
to the days of Word for Windows 2.0c from 1993 which I still contend was
the best version ever.

Although after I installed, it provided an update, which DL'd and installed fine. After that another update was provided, when I clicked to download it flipped back to advise me of the same update w/o providing the download, over and over again.

I found the Apple Discussions very helpful. YMMV

Other users are using Office 2004 without problems under Snow Leopard, so I
suggest you need to find out what's wrong with your setup.

You are not clear about your upgrade path.

1) Did you have Office 2004 installed before you upgraded to Snow Leopard?
2) What did you have prior to 04? Is this the H&S or standard version?
3) Check the Microsoft Component Plugin and tell me what version it is?

/Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Office/Microsoft Component Plugin"

4) When you installed Snow Leopard did you install over Leopard or did you
do a clean install?
5) Have you upgraded to 10.6.1?
6) Did you resolve font duplicates after installing Snow Leopard?
7) Some users found re-installing Office 2004 after upgrading to Snow
Leopard resolved their issues.

Establishing new sidebar for master file

Posted: 19 Sep 2009 05:26 AM PDT

Well, the first point to clarify is that the Open & Save As dialogs
presented when you use an application are provided by the OS, not the
application itself. There's nothing you can do within the program to change
that. As I mentioned, it's a function of the Finder. AFAIK, the sidebar is
not capable of displaying multiple levels [hierarchies]. However, if a
folder in the Sidebar contains files &/or other folders they display in the
content area when that folder is selected.

The Mail program's file list (as well as Entourage, etc.) is a completely
different type of functionality designed into apps of that type. They are
internal to the program design, whereas that isn't the case with programs
such as Word, PPt, Pages, etc. which rely on the OS file management.

You may want to investigate using the Office Project Gallery which may be
exactly what you're looking for.

You are completely updated. The Microsoft Component Plugin always shows the

This is good.

One last test. Testing in a new User will quickly tell you if the problem is
system wide or if it’s your User’s folder that contains the problem.

Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Accounts. Switch to the
New User by logging out/in or use Fast User Switching. Test Office there.

Do you still get the error? If yes, then contact me off list and send a
screenshot of the error. I'll send this on to the team that is investigating

Upgrade options to get better Exchange support

Posted: 17 Sep 2009 06:16 AM PDT

I would remove the Home & Student edition first. It might be possible to
install Entourage only, but I don't know how Office applications from
different editions interact. Furthermore, the updaters are known to be
rather fragile, so if your install is not entirely kosher, you might end up
having to remove & reinstall Office anyway in order to be able to apply the
updates.

Microsoft Word - Language bar is lost when I open the "Save as..." dialog in Word 2013

Microsoft Word - Language bar is lost when I open the "Save as..." dialog in Word 2013

Language bar is lost when I open the "Save as..." dialog in Word 2013

Posted: 28 Dec 2013 10:46 AM PST

I have a Windows 8.1 installation, having upgraded from Windows 7 and Windows 8 respectively. I have a language bar with the following layouts:

1) English US
2) Greek
   a) Greek
   b) Greek Polytonic

After installing Office 2013, whenever I open the "Save as..." dialog in Word 2013, the language bar is lost and I can only type in English.

To fix the issue, I found this workaround, which is rather frustrating, though:
I go to the language options and I set Greek as the default language, then I set English back as the default language and this re-enables the language bar.

I have waited for Windows and Office updates for 2 months now but nothing fixes it. I need a solution, as this is very frustrating and time consuming.

Thank you.

Table of Contents Entry Fields

Posted: 28 Dec 2013 10:18 AM PST

I'm trying to create a table of contents by using field codes in Word 2007 on Windows 8.1.

When I try to insert a {TC} field code using the drop down menu via "Quick Parts", the field code never shows up (I am using Alt-9 and can view all the other hidden text and other field code types).

Next, I tried to manually insert a {TC} field code, but whenever I finished typing the "C" in "TC", the field code disappears and I can no longer input keystrokes unless I move the cursor or do a control-command of some sort.

This is driving me crazy and makes no sense.  Please help!

Excel and Word keep shutting down

Posted: 28 Dec 2013 08:19 AM PST

I have Office University and it has worked perfectly fine for months until today. Now, whenever I try to open an Excel or Word file, I get an error message that says, "A problem has caused this program to stop working," and that I'll be notified of any solutions. Then the program closes.  I used Word all day yesterday without a single problem, but today I can't even keep it open for longer than 15 seconds. I've tried regular repair and Internet repair; I rebooted my computer and flat-out shut it down and restarted it--nothing has helped.  All the other Office programs are working fine. The operating system is WIndows 8; laptop is a Dell Inspiron 14R (i5).

Word 2013 can't publish images on blogger via blog post

Posted: 28 Dec 2013 07:43 AM PST

Hi everyone and Merry Christmas!


Okay so I'm experiencing some problems with Microsoft Word 2013. I'm not kinda sure if its MS Word problem or the blogger itself.
When I'm trying to insert an image via Word's blog post, it says that the post is published, but there is no image on the blog post whatsoever, only letters and a blank space for the reserved image.
What seems to be the problem? Does anyone know? Please help me!

Installed Software Expired?

Posted: 28 Dec 2013 07:10 AM PST

Indent margins in an outline

Posted: 28 Dec 2013 12:06 AM PST

I am typing an outline using Word 2013. Using a preset outline in Word, it keeps changing the indent margin. I am spending more time trying to fix that then I am typing information. I liked the tabs ruler at the top of the page in the older versions of Word or Works because I could just slide the tab to adjust the margins. Any ideas on how to fix this?




Trying to find out how to save from Office 365 to Dropbox

Posted: 27 Dec 2013 08:09 PM PST

I have been using Dropbox for some time to collect my docs from home and office in one place. I have a Dropbox app on my new laptop with Windows 8.1 and Office 365. However, I cannot seem to find a way to save to Dropbox from my new Office suite.  There is a function under File to "Add a location" for saving files, but it does not seem to permit really adding any other location in addition to Office 365 and SkyDrive. I begin to fear they are learning from Apple and refusing to "play well with others." Since I already have many docs on Dropbox, this is not welcome.
 
Any fixes?  Thanks for your help!

Equation Editor in 2010: How to type text after the equation on the same line

I want to label an equation the usual way (such as: eq. 1) to the right of an equation. However, after I write the equation, exit the equation box and press the space bar, the equation shifts to the far left and the font changes to a smaller font.  Does anyone know how to do this simple thing?

Playing back Audio notes recorded on a Word document on Mac over on Word on a Windows PC

Posted: 27 Dec 2013 04:01 PM PST

I am a learning disabled student who is using Office 365 University edition on a PC.  I have a a note taker who also has Office 365 University edition with Word, but on a Mac. She sits in the classroom and takes notes for me using the Audio Notes feature. This feature allows her to type notes for me and record the audio of the lecture at the same time.  Then when I get the Word document file from her I can review the notes and listen to the exact point in the lecture where the instructor was talking.  I am able to use her files on my Mac mini, but when I try to use the same file on my Windows PC, there doesn't seem to be a way play back the audio.  I can't seem to get s straight answer to as to whether this is

a. Not possible to do
b. Possible to do but I need to apply a fix
c. Possible to do, but I am not using it correctly or need another piece of software installed

Additionally there is some confusion at Microsoft about this capability versus something called Microsoft OneNote.  I don't know if they are compatible and can't find any information about it, I eventually landed on this page, but can't find an answer. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/onenote-help/upgrade-to-onenote-2013-HA102749817.aspx?CTT=1     I am willing to install OneNote if it in fact will open the Word file that my friend has sent me with the lecture notes and audio in it.

If you answer this question please forward this answer to the AnswerTech people for the Microsoft Windows and Mac PC support groups because neither of them knew what I was talking about.  Please also forward to the Microsoft Pro Support group and the University365 support groups who handles the activations.

Thanks

Different line layouts

Posted: 26 Dec 2013 08:47 PM PST

I have noticed many times that as I switch between Draft View and Print Layout View, the number of characters on a line changes, with Draft mode putting more text on each line. (In both modes, the text measures 4.7" inches wide, correct for 6" page width and 0.5" margins and .3" gutter. The letter spacing is Normal.) This inconsistency makes it hard to do several kinds of checks at once as I go through the document. Does anyone know why this exists and if there is any way around it?
