do I need vista to complement works? Posted: 09 Jun 2007 10:21 PM PDT Re: Could I save the resume with a .doc extension, or must I use .rtf? Yes..... you can save with .doc extension. As you notice there is many selections you can use. I suggested .rtf as most if not all word processors can open this type of file. Guido offered the best solution. Using PDF is a guarantee the reader will view your resume exactly the same as you created it. Effectively, PDF takes a picture of the document. When somebody opens the PDF document they will see the same thing you see.

word reader Posted: 05 Jun 2007 05:35 PM PDT "dodaCoruba" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com...  You might want to download and install this: http://www.openoffice.org/ It is much more than a viewer, and it is able to convert and open files produced by a variety of word processing programs. In addition, if you so choose, you can edit the document. BTW, it's free. I still prefer to use my old Works 4.5, old habits die hard. I also have a Word viewer installed. By default it will try and open attachments such as you describe. I really need to change that association to Open Office because I think it works better, just too lazy I guess.

Autorun Wks Calendar? Posted: 05 Jun 2007 05:32 AM PDT To create a shortcut to works calendar.... On the desktop, choose Start, then select Programs, on it's expanded menu select Microsoft Works, on it's expanding menu right click Microsoft Works Calendar, in the popup dialog select Send To, on it's menu choose Desktop (create shortcut). Confirm calendar opens when double clicking the now new Works Calendar icon on your desktop. Now lets find the Startup folder.... On the desktop, choose Start, then select Programs, on it's expanded menu right click Startup, on it's popup dialog choose Properties, you should now be able to find the path for the location of the Startup folder. Now lets put the calendar shortcut icon into the Startup folder. Navigate to the Startup folder, size the screen so you can see both the folder and the desktop, while holding down the Right mouse button drag the Works Calendar icon into the startup folder.

Adding Excel to Works?

How do I add watermark DRAFT across the pages Posted: 02 Mar 2005 05:47 AM PST Hi Raymond, Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :-) I assume you talking about Project? You could pre-print the pages with a watermark using Word. Then Over-print your project pages. (Or vice versa.) FAQs, companion products and other useful Project information can be seen at this web address: <http://www.mvps.org/project/> Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on :-)) Mike Glen MS Project MVP Raymond Beliveau wrote:

For pity's sake ... Posted: 02 Mar 2005 01:21 AM PST It's not Project's fault - all applications pick up their available paper size information from the printer driver. Go to the printer settings in the Windows Start menu, select your installed printer and view its properties. You'll find the list of paper sizes it understands in its properties. Anything not listed will not show up as a paper size in Project (or other applications either). A3 paper is approximately 11.75 x 16.5 inches. If it's missing from your driver settings there are a couple of possibilities - either your printer can't accomodate paper that size (maybe it's too wide for the printer), you have the wrong printer driver installed, or it was accidently omitted and you need to see if there's an update available. -- Steve House [MVP] MS Project Trainer & Consultant Visit http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm for the FAQs "Vaughan" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com...

Duration based on total resource quantity and rate of use Posted: 01 Mar 2005 06:03 PM PST That's the way material resources are tracked. Create a resource "Coal" as a material resource, material label "pounds." Create a task X. In the Window menu choose "split" to split the screen With task X selected, assign the resource coal, set the units to "50/day" and the work to "600" and you'll find it calculates the duration to be 12 days. Be very very careful with this, though, because if you assign a work resource as well, the work resources will over-ride the duration calculated by the usage of the material resource - in my example if you add resource Bill at 100% everything with be fine at first BUT if you then try to change the total coal to be used to 1000 pounds you'll find the duration number doesn't change but the elasped time shown by the Gantt bar does! It's as if Bill's work governs the duration numbers but the usage of coal governs the elapsed time! I'd strongly suggest manually estimating the duration rather than asking Project to do it for you to avoid those sorts of problems. -- Steve House [MVP] MS Project Trainer & Consultant Visit http://www.mvps.org/project/faqs.htm for the FAQs "Steve NCC" <com.(remove)> wrote in message news:com...

How to remove task split Posted: 01 Mar 2005 04:47 PM PST In article <com>, "Haixiang" <com> wrote:   Haixiang, You're welcome. How does "it" know? You told it when you dragged the Gantt bar. If a task has no resources assigned, manually creating a split on the Gantt causes a Duration split, meaning the task has a forced period of "down time". Any subsequent assignment of resources will follow that split and work hours for those resources will show as "0h" during the split period on the Usage views. John Project MVP

Filtering on sub tasks Posted: 01 Mar 2005 11:03 AM PST Hi Fred, That does help somewhat. If all of your "Tender" tasks contain the word "tender" you can create a custom filter to only show those tasks. Jack Dahlgren (Project MVP) has a "Summary Name" macro on his site http://masamiki.com/project/macros.htm that may assist you if the subtasks of the "Tender" summary task don't contain the text "tender". Hope this helps. Let us know how you get along. Julie "Fred" wrote:

Filtering on a sub task Posted: 01 Mar 2005 11:03 AM PST i think you don't need to use resource,try to use custom fields such as text1. but you still need to assign 3200 tasks. see you task name to find if there are some key words for each stage,try to use these key words to filter your tasks, if this works ,done. if this works partially, at least it can minimize the task range,so you can easily assign your custom field.

Customize Gantt chart timeline range Posted: 01 Mar 2005 09:35 AM PST Hi Panos, I think we have two separate issues - what you see and what you print. The ability to control what *prints* from the Gantt chart is controlled in the File>Print dialog box under the Timescale options. What you view on the screen is controlled in the View>Zoom command. As far as *seeing* only a specific time range, you may select the tasks between the dates you want and select View>Zoom and the selected tasks option. Sorry if the original answer was less than clear and please let me know if this has helped. Julie "Panos" wrote:

Office 365 University suddenly is unlicensed?! Posted: 02 Jan 2014 02:40 PM PST Today I tried to open microsoft Word and at the top of the screen is a red bar saying the product is unlicensed. I have Office 365 University that is active until 2017, so this should not be happening. I have ran fixit to uninstall and reinstall office on my computer, but this problem persists. I have called MS support, but after a 4 hour phone call, she was unable to solve the problem. Any ideas?

MS Word 2010 vs. MS Word 3013 - Stylesheet issues Posted: 02 Jan 2014 01:57 PM PST I would like to know if anyone has had any major issues with exchanging word files back and forth between Word 2010 and Word 2013 users.....specifically, style sheet compatibility issues?  I work with custom templates and when sharing with MS Word 2013 users, I am worried their built in sylesheet will clash with my custom style sheets in our standard office templates. Thanks you.

Microsoft 2010 Home and Student - lags, crashes, doesn't recognize own documents, takes forever to open, etc. Posted: 02 Jan 2014 01:56 PM PST Hi! I raided as many questions as I possibly could to try and fix my program, but nothing seems to directly relate to it, and I'm too nervous to try something not directly related. I've had this program for about 2-3 years, and the problem never left. I've gotten help at the very beginning (it started to take place a month or so after I installed it), and the problem seemed to have receded... but not for long. Unfortunately, I can't contact Support because my PID number has expired. Now I've just about lost my mind. Basically, the entire program is faulty. Whether I open Word, Excel, etc., it lags for approximately 3-5 minutes before I can start using it (takes a while to react to me signalling it to open, the 'processing/etc.' mini-screen goes through the motions for a few minutes, and then it takes a few more to actually settle so I can use it without freezing).  At times, every few actions results in the program (whether I'm in Word, etc.) to freeze and unfreeze; sometimes it goes so far as to freeze my laptop (HP Windows 7), whereas an emergency shutout becomes necessary. In addition, it doesn't recognize its own documents if I try to directly open them through their own links. Instead, the documents open in WordPad. Microsoft Word isn't even an option when I try to locate it through the right-click option menu. These are just a few of the many issues, but there really are too many to count. Also, the first time I contacted Support I was told to disable all contact between program and Internet. However, this keeps me from being able to perform system updates. Please help!! Sincerely, Steph

Remove a specified number of characters from the right or left side of text Posted: 02 Jan 2014 01:19 PM PST I know that in Excel you can remove a specified number of characters from the right or left side of text.  Can you do that in Word as well?  Basically, I'm editing a document that someone's manually numbered paragraphs.  Instead of manually going through them and deleting them, I'm wondering if there's a way of highlighting the paragraphs I'd like to edit and removing the first 4 characters (the two numbers, the period, and the tab) so I can then number them using the numbering tool.    Is there a way?    Thanks, Dax

Chapter and Page Numbering in Word 2013 Posted: 02 Jan 2014 12:50 PM PST Hello, I've got a strange issue that I believe is related to conflicting multilevel lists in a large word document. Basically I have multiple chapters broken into the appropriate sections. All of my sub headings are working correctly e.g. 1.1 or 2.1. The Navigation pane shows the correct Numbering for each section e.g. 1 Title, 2 Title. However, the first page of each chapter, after chapter 1, is showing the wrong chapter number in the page number only. Where it should say 2-1 it shows 1-1. After the first page the numbering is correct e.g. 2-2, 2-3. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

How do you rename custom controlled text boxes? Posted: 02 Jan 2014 11:06 AM PST Hi everyone, I really like the format of fields in cover pages because the box contains an annotation to describe the content that should go inside it (in the picture attached below, I'm referring to the box above saying 'Title'). Does anyone know how to create custom fields such as these in which I can modify the annotation (such as changing Title to something like Client Name)? Thanks.

envelope option in Office 2013 Word Posted: 02 Jan 2014 10:44 AM PST In Office 2013 Word, the envelope option offers only letterhead or other fancy, smancy options.  How I can I pull up a simple, unadorned envelop (as with the earlier version, which worked so well, but, alas, died)?

Problem with Bullets and Numbering Posted: 02 Jan 2014 09:36 AM PST I select Format -> Bullets and Numbering -> Outlined Numbered and I select the 2nd to last option I see a 'I.' But my font automatically turns itself to Arial size 16 (default is times new roman size 12) And after I type something and press Enter it does not continue any numbering it just creates a new line instead of placing the 'A.' like it's supposed to.  I tried deleting Normal.dot and also starting word with winword /a but it did not help.  Any ideas?

how do I create a drop box list to change it's display value after a selection is made.

Distorted Flyer as Email Attachment Posted: 02 Jan 2014 09:10 AM PST I created a flyer on Word. The Flyer has an illuminated page color with a faint watermark partially on top of it and text on top of that. I sent it as an email attachment but when someone sent it back to me for text corrections, the flyer was distorted: the watermark was dark the illuminated page color was gone the flyer was larger than the one I originally sent. How can I make sure that when I send the flyer via email attachment, it is received the way I designed it? How can I put the flyer in the body of the email? Thanks!

Copy and paste from web page into word 2010 document loses all paragraph formatting Posted: 02 Jan 2014 08:09 AM PST In word 2003 when I used to copy and paste from web pages, all the paragraph formatting would be preserved.  I'm particularly thinking of quoted paragraphs which are indented, but also bold and italics.  In Word 2010, the quoted paragraphs are never indented, even when I choose "keep source formatting".  Hyperlinks are preserved, and spaces between paragraphs, but italics, bolds and underlines are hit and miss - sometimes they are preserved, sometimes not, even within the same document.  I'm wasting an enormous amount of tim re-indenting quotes into my documents... How do I preserve the original structure? When I choose "merge formatting" it preserves italics and bold, but not indented paragraphs.  for example if the original web page looks like this: BLA BLA BLA Dum de dum dum dum:          Snipetysnappetysnippety snap when I paste it into word 2010 (using "keep source formatting"), it looks like this: BLA BLA BLA Dum de dum dum dum: Snipetysnappetysnippety snap and if i choose "merge formatting" it gives me this: BLA BLA BLA Dum de dum dum dum: Snipetysnappetysnippety snap How do I fix this?  Why did it used to work properly in 2003 but not 2010? Thanks

The "old story" of WORD 2010 not displaying inserted JPEGs, PNGs, etc - I had little hair to start with and I will soon have none! Posted: 02 Jan 2014 07:03 AM PST I have tried virtually all the Options adjustments for WORD shown on the Microsoft site, as well as spending much time on the net looking for solutions. Also, I have also  used Regedit to amend the AllowListEnabled list of graphics filters in the Registry, and have removed the 64 bit version of OFFICE 2010 and replaced it by the 32 bit version - all to no avail because WORD will NOT display JPEGs/PNGs and so on, which it is supposed to do by default. The same problem is happening with PowerPoint 2010 and Excel2010!   The machine is a Samsung NP355V5C-A03UK running WIN 7 Ultimate with SP1, and Office 2010 Professional Plus with all current MS updates installed - and I have updated the BIOS, Radeon Video drivers, and the MS s/w as recommended by the on-board Samsung support s/w. On that subject, I also noted several Office Security Updates were identified on the net as being prime suspects for the problem, and that at least one of them should be removed - problem is that Control Panel/Programmes/MS updates is not listing them separately now, although I think they were shown somewhat earlier.   This has been going on for weeks and I am absolutely at my wits end with it, especially as two other ("lower spec") machines (Dell 1525 running 32 bit Win 7 Pro, and ASUS laptop running 64 bit Win 7 Home Premium) running Office Home and Business 2010 have no such problems :-(  and I can open the same files on those machines and see the graphics. In fact the OFFICE PRO PLUS suite was installed on the Dell before it was moved to the Samsung and it never threw this problem. PLEASE, PRETTY PLEASE, someone give me something else to try on the Samsung as this is essentially my business machine, and I am severely hampered by effectively having a useless installation of Office on it. Thanks in advance. John

Word 2010 freezes Posted: 02 Jan 2014 07:03 AM PST Hello everyone About a week ago, Word started freezing upon performing some actions: - when I try to save a document as a pdf - when I try to print a document - when I try to change the font Word just freezes and eventually I just have to close it. My temporary solution is working on another computer, but I'd rather fix this problem. Found a few suggestions on older threads, unfortunately these do not work. ( " winword /safe " : safe version doesn't help). Hopefully someone can help me solve this annoying problem.

How to use the search function for 'paragraph signs' in a text? Posted: 02 Jan 2014 02:29 AM PST Hello, Happy New Year to everyone! I am finishing my thesis and I obviously have a lot of literature citations in the text. Now I would like to check whether they all match and I tried writing the paragraph sign "8" like in i.e.  "...and Walzer et al. 1998.8" in the search box but Word doesn't turn an "8" in a paragraph sign! Hence I can't search for the paragraph signs but only for numbers in the text, which would be too time-consuming! Can anyone help me to solve this problem? Thank you in advance and Best Regards Ben

Word 2013 Posted: 02 Jan 2014 12:43 AM PST In Word 2013, the cursor jumps all over the place - back to previous line, back a word or two, almost anywhere - making it almost impossible to type a document or an email in Outlook.  It is pure "torture" attempt to type ANYTHING.  I purchased word 2013 on Nov. 6, 2013, from Amazon and downloaded product. Is there a solution?  Desperately need help with this problem.  While typing this short message the cursor jumped all around numerous times. Thanks.

Keyboard layout prevalence Posted: 02 Jan 2014 12:37 AM PST Hi y'all !  I've created a keyboard layout using KLC. I need the shorcuts of such layout to prevail over the shortcuts of other applications such as Microsoft Word and over the ones associated to browsers - typing in the notepad poses no problem at all, as every stroke combination works. Can this be set in some direct way, or rather changing manually one by one ? I am using W7, and the laptop is Acer. Thanks in advance.

Header on page one labeled as "Odd Page Header" Posted: 01 Jan 2014 08:21 PM PST I'm working on a book with a couple dozen chapters, each in their own files, each with pagination beginning with "1" (well, pagination is hyphenated, with chapter number, e.g., 8-1, 8-2, 8-3 for chapter 8). In this chapter, I've been unable to suppress the header on the first page. yes, I've got "different first page" and "different odd & even pages" ticked in the File tab. on the first page, at the top, the blue label at the header reads "Odd Page Header" then, on pages 3 and 5, the blue header labels read: "First Page Header" and the blue footer labels read: "First Page Footer" on pages 7 et seq. and on all the even pages, the headers and footers appear appropriately. Can someone tell me what I did to confuse MS Word to switch the first page and odd headers and footers on pages 1, 3, and 5? thanks! Louise

Running linux off of a MP3 player? Posted: 23 Aug 2005 05:24 PM PDT check out a Slackware-based distro called "Slax". http://slax.linux-live.org/ There are Standard, Server, "KillBill", and "Popcorn" Editions that include X with a window manager - Popcorn edition is small (fits on a 128MB usb flash!) and doesn't contain KDE, defaults to Xfce (just took a quick look, not sure if fluxbox or any other small wm would be on it without some adjustments). A "Frodo" edition (no gui) is only 47 MB.

Problem running /bin/sh Posted: 23 Aug 2005 12:02 PM PDT I just check with system-config-securitylevel with an X Window (with ssh, we don't see SE Linux options) and I click on the "SELinux Tab" and uncheck "Enforcing" checkbox Now when I enter getenforce command, I receive Permissive and my script is working ! Thank you again !

Help u(n)mounting a harddrive Posted: 20 Aug 2005 10:51 AM PDT In the Usenet newsgroup comp.os.linux.setup, in article <somewhere.ne>, The Gnome wrote:   Moving the files from 'old' to 'new' should be fairly straight-forward. The "Hard-Disk-Upgrade" mini-howto should provide all the needed instructions.   Not being able to umount the drive is almost always caused by some application having an open file. It may be that the application is hung, and consequently the 'kill' commands issued by the shutdown sequence won't succeed. The new drive itself shouldn't cause this. Use '/usr/sbin/fuser' or '/usr/sbin/lsof' to identify what applications are accessing the hard disk before you try to shut down in conjunction with /bin/ps. This may identify the hung application.   The appearance of your window manager is a function of the setup and local configuration files. These reside in /etc/ as well as the home directory of the individual user. I don't think this would be a factor. As far as left-over files on the older drive, as root do /sbin/fdisk -l /dev/hda or what ever the original drive is now called, and compare that to the output of '/bin/mount'. If a partition isn't mounted, it's not accessible. If you originally had /home as a sub-directory of / and this was on the / partition, AND all you did was to copy the "old" home to (example) /mnt/temp.location.of.new.partition/ AND THEN edit /etc/fstab to mount the new drive on /home then the old /home/ still exists, but is not accessible because the 'mount' blocks access to files that _were_ in the mountpoint before you mounted. Bottom line - old home should not even be visible.   Now, here is where you may have a problem - you state above that the new drive is (assuming minor typo) /dev/hde. That is the "fifth" drive, and as a IDE type controller only handles four, this has to be an extra controller. But you don't provide any details - not even mentioning the distribution/version, or type of hardware involved.   What I'd do would be to use /sbin/fdisk to verify what's located where, and compare what /etc/fstab says. Look also for any add-on commands that were used to "manually" mount drives during the boot process, and look for any boot commands or BIOS setups that relate to the extra disk controller. Simply reversing the steps in the 'Hard-Disk-Upgrade" mini-howto, or whatever you used as a guide should suffice. Old guy

GRUB Error 22 with SATA Hard Drive Posted: 19 Aug 2005 02:11 PM PDT David Johnstone wrote:  Hi David: It does sound quite similar. I too have one SATA and two PATA drives. I tried clearing the MBR on all three physical hard drives and booting into the SuSE Install-Recovery mode. I left all hard drives visible in BIOS with the SATA first in boot order. Using the "expert" mode, I had it rebuild the GRUB boot from scratch, putting GRUB on the SATA hard drive which holds Windows XP and is first in my hard drive boot list in the BIOS. SuSE's boot rebuild "saw" Windows XP and the Linux install and included both (plus a floppy boot) in the menu it created. But when I booted, I get a blank screen where GRUB usually shows up. No error message. The only way I could get anything to boot was to "reset" the MBR on the SATA hard drive after which it booted straight to XP (as it should with a clear MBR and the XP SATA drive as first boot hard drive). Yes, I bought a boxed set of SuSE 9.3 Pro and it offered to install 64-bit. Actually, my first boxed set since Redhat 6.? I really like the SuSE configuration and update systems. Very intuitive. Thanks, Jess

upgrade fc4 to debian? Posted: 19 Aug 2005 08:44 AM PDT I think what I'll do is Debian on a dual-boot machine and then just migrate the data. It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a second hard drive, a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses. This should be easy. Thanks, all.

Grub and mobile rack Posted: 19 Aug 2005 01:47 AM PDT <com> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:googlegroups.com...  Wrong. I just tried it and I get the Error 22 right away even without removing the drive in the rack. It seems that 2 PATA and one SATA drive is just to much for poor old Grub, for whatever reason. Pity. Anyone know of a bootloader that can handle this? David
