What Project version to upgrade to?

Posted: 28 Feb 2005 11:01 AM PST

Adding to Jack's excellent response - not only is the dealer giving you
incorrect information, if he tries to convince you to buy the 50% more
expensive Project Professional instead of Project Standard "because it has
more features" or some such, that too would be incorrect. Unless you
specifically have Project Server installed in your network, the
functionality of the Standard and Professional versions are identical.

Don't use a date field. Use a text field.
You can have dates or numbers or whatever in a text field. Project still
recognizes them as dates or numbers or whatever.

MCP certification?

Posted: 28 Feb 2005 09:31 AM PST

Hi Steve,

I agree, I wouldn't be surprise to see MS stop the certication for Project
as I doubt it is one of their top money makers. I also believe that as MS has
not created a certification for MSP2003 it is a further sign they are backing
away from the MOS for Project. It would be nice if MS either confirmed or
denied the rumors.....

That being said, I was able to get to the page link I gave to Bill directly
off the Microsoft Office Specialist page under "requirements" and found the
links on the page dealing directly with MSP did work. It did take some
digging, but frankly there are few pieces of the MS site that don't ;-).

How do I set a reminder in Project 2003?

So, if I understand what your saying is that I set an additional task, a
"ring contractor" in advance of the start of the task needing the
notification and setting the start dependency the required number of days????

Is there anyway to send an outlook task notification so that when Outlook
starts it will show a "To Do" task which is to call XXX for a start date of
YYY? Here I want the outlook to notify me or another team member not the
contractor.

Thanks

Templates for Legal Profession

Posted: 25 Feb 2005 10:04 AM PST

Steve, thanks - your expert opinion that I probably will not find any
standard templates is what I needed to know. While it is true that law firms
and cases are unique, firms have areas of specialty(or lines of business).
Within each line there is a process and a set of documentation that needs to
be generated. My initial effort relates to commercial litigation and will
involve two templates. The first template will use generic resources and
provide a prospective client a time and cost breakdown. This is an
improvement over "it could take years and cost millions". The second
template will update the generic tasks/resources with actuals and provide
firm management a tool to track large litigation efforts.

Office Home and Student 2010

Hello.

I recently had to send my laptop for repair to PC world (have insurance). Whilst trying to print off a word document the other day I found I was unable to perform any tasks other than to view my documents. I tried uninstalling the programme and re installing it but when I open any docs it comes up with an activation message. When I try to activate I get an error message 0x8007000D.

Does anyone know what this means and how I can get my office back to how it was?

Thank you in advance,

"something went wrong" message pops up when i'm trying to install office 2013

Trying to install office 2013. The internet cut out mid-process and now when I try to continue the installation a message pops up saying that something went wrong and that "office is busy right now because your product is busy with another task".

Lost Word(2013) docx file, Win 8.1

Posted: 01 Jan 2014 09:00 AM PST

While working on this document for several hours. and manually saving it, (20x to desktop),  it now has disappeared from the  computer.  Things I have done so far:  Search This PC for the document on C:, E: and local network for:  *.docx ,  ~*.* , *.asd, *.tmp, unsaved documents, recent documents, nothing in recycle bin, etc.  The only hint of its once existence is a short cut for the file, but when I open it, Windows says it no longer exists or has been moved.  Appreciate any solutions!  tx

Every word document disappeared that was inside my dropbox folder?

Posted: 01 Jan 2014 06:55 AM PST

I've had the most confusing thing happen. I restarted my computer a few hours ago and when I logged back in, every word document inside my dropbox folder had vanished. 

Thankfully the word documents were backed up in two other 'clouds' but it has left me a little stunned.

Does anyone have a clue how this would happen?

I have a very good understanding of computers and I only say that so that nobody recommends that I check my recycle bin. I am positive that the files are not hidden or relocated. They are simply not there. 

I have NIS for virus protection (it shows no history of a virus)
I'm running windows 8.1 on pure SSD
There hasn't been any recent modifications or program installs for over a week.

Lastly, the word documents were spread throughout many folders inside dropbox so it wasn't like a folder was deleted. It basically looks like dropbox decided that it didn't want to keep my word documents anymore and just did away with them. There is history of me accessing these files inside word, but they obviously no longer are linked to a file anymore. 

Thanks in advance

Is there any way to re-size the columns of multiple tables simultaneously?

Posted: 01 Jan 2014 06:20 AM PST

Hi All,

I am wondering is there any way to re-size the columns of multiple table simultaneously?

For example, is it possible for me to adjust the first column of the 2nd to 4th tables together in a go so that they can align to the first column of the first table?

I have to drag the column borders of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th table one by one in order to adjust the width of the first column to be same as that of the 1st table.

In essence, I'd like to know is there any fast way for me to select multiple tables and adjust the formatting of them in one go, rather that selecting and adjusting them one by one?

Thank you very much!


Add non-changing date field code

Posted: 01 Jan 2014 06:13 AM PST

For school projects, I like to use a standard word template.
I've recently stumbled upon a problem, regarding the field codes I use.
A standard date field code is located in the header, which is great as it states the date I started the project. Sadly, I found out that it also updates with every edit and reading session. Therefore, it will not display the original date the document was created on.

Is there any way to change this behavior? It is, frankly, most irritating, as it even updates when my teachers are to correct the document later on. I do, however, continue to use an automatic layout like this.

Generating a Bill of material; any better solution?

Posted: 31 Dec 2013 05:11 PM PST

I'm working on a project and I think my nose is so stuck to the tree right now ... i lack perspective and ideas!

Here is the situation. Sales rep prepare documents that discuss clients' technology situation, and offer solutions in some form of proposal. These documents get reviewed modified and eventually become an annex to a formal contract.

Throughout the proposal, a lot of material, services and equipment is mentionned either inline with the text when its a single item (e.g. a power bar) or within matrices (since selling a server means in fact a whole bunch of components some standard some being upgrades).

There is already a document template for the bill of material. What is needed is the methodology to get the material services and upgrades from the proposal neatly listed in that BOM.

I want it to be easily updated. It will be used by the client to accept delivery and by technician to load up their trucks before service calls. 
It must also be easy for the sales rep to mark the equipment within the text of the proposal.

SOLUTIONS EXPLORED
I don't want page numbers to appear. That unfortunately eliminates the Table of Authorities which seemed the simplest way to get my 3 distinct lists. Index is also ruled out for the same reason 
\n does not seem to remove the page numbers 

Bibliography could have been an interesting option but it won't take spaces in the tag, adds ( ) and repurposing the dialog would be hazardous

End notes do not grab the text.

So that leaves me with TOC.


MY BEST IDEA (which I would not mind overthrown)

1- Use the style separator (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/285059) to single out the text i want listed
2- Apply style Title7, 8 and 9 according to type of product: equipment, service or upgrade
3- Generate 3 TOC (each showing all 9 levels but in options, only title7 (or 8 or 9) has a TM order number (7,8,9) and those are identically formated.

I do not like the playing with style separator. It is not really easy to understand how it works especially within paragraphs that exist already or have bullets or special formats. I'm not sure I can control and avoid, even putting it in a proper sequence in a macro button, how the user with manage to sc*** it up.

How can I generate that TOC in the BOM template, for the right proposal?  I might use document properties to input a proposal/contract number?


Any idea anyone??

how do I enable all the fonts for office 2003?

Hi Brian,

The Centaur Font is included in Office 2003 Professional Edition (which includes Publisher 2003). A number of fonts are Publisher
related that are included on the list at http://microsoft.com/typography/fonts/product.aspx?PID=143

In MS Office in Add/Remove Programs there are fonts included in the Advanced Options under Office Shared Features, and International
Features, as an example.

hello,

I bought and installed office 2003 (student and teacher edition) and am
having troubles accessing all the fonts that come with it. I'm trying to use
the Centaur font, which currently is not included in the drop down list when
I use Word. I searched through scores of office webpages to see which fonts
are included, and it turns out that this particular font IS included. But why
can't I use it I'm wondering, and how can I get it to work?

If you're reading this, you might be wondering what I've tried so far. Well,
I put in the installation CD, ran it and opted for the "add/remove features"
program. When I installed the software to begin with, I believe I did a full
install. Anyway, having gone back and trying to make sure all the fonts are
installed, I came across one big problem! Where in the world is there even an
option that even refers to "fonts"!? I looked through all the options, and
found nothing which indicates there is even a means of installing all the
fonts via "adding features" from the Office installation CD.

Can anyone please help!?

Many thanks...

Office 2003 crash on open dialog

Posted: 13 Feb 2006 06:56 AM PST

Many thanks for your response - I'll try out those references. Actually Word
does crash - and it pops up the 'send details to MS' dialog, then restarts
and recovers the file. It does the same thing in Options. I wonder whether
this is due to the rather complex permissions that get applied to the
Redirected folders by GP. However, I think we should be able to move the
location of these folders when disk space/server availability dictates.

My transform file to change the Office2003 & add the license faile

Posted: 10 Feb 2006 10:59 AM PST

Thanks,
I clicked the Advanced button awhich allowed me to add in the transform. Now
for some reason the GPO is not working. It never assigns it to the computer.
I forced the GPO with update but I must have the GPO setup wrong. I will redo
the GPO and see if it will work

2003 Pro Installation Error

No, unless you can count the latest Visio and Powerpoint viewer. However, I
did find this info. on the knowledgebase that corrected the issue:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/295823/en-us

even though there was no previous installation of any other Office product.

Hi Justin,

There are plenty of good reasons why people plunk down money for
Microsoft and Apple products when Sun Microsystems provides OpenOffice
and Google provides Google Docs for free.

The free products offer only a subset of the features of Microsoft
Office or iWork, and the free interfaces are geeky by comparison. For
people who need only basic functionality and compatibility, the free
products may be adequate. Based on the marketplace, the vast majority of
Mac users prefer the Microsoft and Apple offerings even though they are
not free.

Right off the bat you don't get the Microsoft fonts, templates, or clip
art with the free products. Charts don't work the same way. Object
formatting is primitive by comparison. The free stuff is free, but if
you expect people to switch to the free stuff it has to be at least as
good if not better than what they have now. The free stuff is OK, but it
has a long way to go before it can compete with Microsoft and Apple
offerings.

Sometimes open source has great alternatives to commercial products.
FireFox and Audacity come to mind. I don't think OpenOffice, NeoOffice
or Google docs are competitive with Microsoft Office, which continues to
evolve for the better in many ways.

Word crashes or hangs constantly

Posted: 16 Oct 2009 11:06 PM PDT

In this case it was just a proverbial clutch at the ever-elusive straw :-)
It launches the app in "Safe" mode bypassing your existing Preference files.
Typically a part of troubleshooting.

Sorry we couldn't do better, but at least you don't have to retype the
document. If the original isn't sensitve content you can send me a copy &
I'll try to figure out what went sour. Let me know.

The mdworker is associated with Spotlight so I'm not sure why it's in login
items.

Is Intego a virus software application? These are notorious for causing
problems. Personally, I don't use virus software but if you are exchanging a
lot of emails with Windows users, you might need it not to pass on a virus
to them.

Office 2008 64 bit support?

Posted: 15 Oct 2009 09:39 AM PDT

Hey everyone,

I've been using Office with K64 enabled and it runs much better. In particular opening the programs is much faster. StatPlus also appears to work without problem. Thanks.

Microsoft Word

Hi colby,

In what format are the files when you email them? If they're in PDF format, the default app for opening such files on a PC is likely
to be Adobe Reader. Word can't read PDFs. If the files are in Doc format, the default app for opening such files on a PC is likely
to be Word (or another word processor), but a file association error on the PC could cause Adobe Reader to try to open them.

Diane is right about the Home & Student Edition being the most economical
based on the circumstances you describe, but just to clarify a bit...

There is no upgrade pricing for that edition ‹ it would be an outright
purchase of Office 2008. Still cheaper than upgrading to another Edition
that includes only one license, let alone having to purchase additional
copies for the other systems.

Also, the H/S licenses are restricted to personal ("non-commercial") use,
which may be of no concern for you.

If you only have Exchange messages, then simply create a new Identity in
Entourage 2008 and enter the account info and it will sync backup. If you
have info in the folders "On My Computer" you will need to export that data
as individual files.

The -36 error is really serious. You need to immediately backup all data.
Some data will refuse to even copy when it's written on bad blocks. Try
dragging over in individual folders. When you use an automatic backup it can
get stalled when it hits the corruption and doesn't get further data.

It's possible you can run a utility on the drive and map out the bad blocks,
but I would change it out or boot from an external drive.

Good luck with your recovery.
