Problem installing Office XP PRO Posted: 20 Feb 2006 09:11 PM PST ..doc and .xls files should remain intact as long as you didn't put them in the same folders where the Office program files are located (such as "C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data" or "C:\Program Files"). As a precaution, you should back up your outlook.pst file (which is where your emails are stored) in case Something Bad happens. stoner wrote:

Microsoft Office 12 Pre installation (Urgent develope idea) Posted: 20 Feb 2006 12:29 AM PST It already does in Office 2003. You get the option to either remove the old version completely thus saving HD space or you can keep the old version and still install the new version. This choice is at the start of the installation and unless you are challenged in any shape or form, you can't miss it!. As Milly said, any ideas or recommendations should be directed to MS developers and product managers as per your agreements under beta testing program. hth zemi wrote:

Are there new GPO/.adm templates for Office 2003 SP2? Posted: 17 Feb 2006 08:42 AM PST The SP1 templates are the latest and greatest. (Still no word from Microsoft when the SP2 versions will be out.) Tip: Consider carefully what you apply via domain group policy objects and this means that this is what it is and the end user doesn't get the option to configure to taste. Tip: If looking to configure Office 2003 on terminal servers, be ruthless where it counts. (No PST creation, No AutoArchiving, No Cached Mode for Outlook.)

Nothing in Office will open Posted: 01 Nov 2009 11:57 AM PST What you give no indication of is your current update level of Office 2008, and you did not say what the OS X version is for the other MBP. If Office is not fully updated on each Mac (12.2.1) it may well be the cause of the problem. Confirming your update levels & repairing disk permissions would be the first step before chasing symptoms.

Should I keep OFfice 2004? Posted: 01 Nov 2009 10:35 AM PST Thanks, Diane. If you can help me out a bit more, are you saying the "Remove Office" would be in the Office 04 set, and would it remove only 04? Or it's in the 08 set and I should make sure it only finds 04 files? (Not that it'd be the end of the world if it removed the wrong one, but just so I don't waste time and effort.)

using 2004 on two comps. simultaneously Posted: 31 Oct 2009 07:45 PM PDT Hi Chuck; Just to clarify a bit, nobody "buys Office", they buy a license to *use* Office & each retail license applies to a single user. That user is entitled to install on one stationary & one portable system, but is not allowed to run any of the software on both at the same time. If the computers are on the same network there are safeguards built in that prevent doing so. That applies to any installations on separate Macs if the same Product Key is used for those installations. The only *legitimate* "workaround" is for each user to install using their own respective Product Key (license). IOW, either you or your wife need an additional license, which can only be had (for the retail package) by purchasing another copy of Office. As Diane points out, the Office 2008 Home & Student Edition (referred to as Student/Teacher in 2004 & prior) includes 3 Product Keys (licenses), so up to 3 users can install the software as indicated above. Each of the other editions include only one license. You also have to consider, however, that the Home & Student licenses do not permit commercial/business use of the software -- they're for personal (not-for-profit) use only.

Font selection list mix up Posted: 29 Oct 2009 09:37 AM PDT I haven't used Suitcase since prior to the intro of OS X, so I can't comment on its current reliability, but I did notice that you mention having updated OS X... Have you also updated Office 2008 *&* Suitcase as well? It's also possible that the Office Font Cache (12) file is damaged or corrupt. You might try removing it while no Office apps are running to see if the problem continues. Also, there could be a corrupt font cache, especially if you don't restart your Mac at least every other day.

Removing "link to previous" in section footnote Posted: 23 Oct 2009 09:44 AM PDT I've read through your series of messages several times but I really can't understand what you're describing. The Link to Previous & Different First Page attributes pertain to Headers & Footers -- those settings have nothing at all to do with Footnotes aside from enabling their formatting to be different in each Section. Also, Footnotes aren't "linked to previous sections". They are placed either at the bottom of the same page as the noted text or are at the end of the Section in which that text is located. I'm not sure how you were attempting to access Help, but this is a reasonably good summary of Sections. There is a good deal more as well: __________________________________________________ ____ About sections and section breaks Sections are a part of a document where you can set specific page layout and formatting options. You create a new section when you want to change properties (such as line numbering, number of columns, or headers and footers) for a portion of your document. For example, format a section as a single column for the introduction of a report, and then format the following section as two columns for the body text of the report. Word treats a document as a single section until you insert a section break. [Graphics Excluded] Each section break controls the layout and formatting of the section preceding the break. For example, if you delete a section break, the preceding text becomes part of the following section and uses its section formatting. The last paragraph mark (¶) in the document controls the section layout and formatting of the last section in the document. If the document does not contain sections, the last paragraph mark controls the layout and formatting of the entire document. You can change the following layout and format options for a section: Margins Paper size or orientation Paper source for a printer Page borders Vertical alignment Headers and footers Columns Page numbering Line numbering Footnotes and endnotes The following table shows examples of the types of section breaks that you can insert. In each illustration, the double-dotted line represents a section break. [Tables won't display properly in newsgroup messages.] Section break type Description Next page Inserts a section break and starts the new section on the next page. Continuous Inserts a section break and starts the new section on the same page. Odd page Inserts a section break and starts the new section on the next odd-numbered page. Even page Inserts a section break and starts the new section on the next even-numbered page. See also Insert, delete, or change a section break Insert or delete a manual page break Print specific pages and sections __________________________________________________ ____ If what you've managed so far doesn't work out as well as you expect it might not be a bad idea to submit a new message in the Word Forum rather than this general forum for Office. Try to be as explicit as you can with your description of how the document is constructed and exactly how you want it to be different. It's also good practice to specify your exact update levels of both Office & OS X. Regards |:>) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac On 10/23/09 12:40 PM, in article caR9absDaxw, "com" <com> wrote:

Please Help Me Out Of Word Hell Posted: 21 Oct 2009 02:55 PM PDT Hi, it's difficult for me to say as I don't have the document in front of me. Some formatting won't work because the invisible formatting made by the source (the webmail interface) was probably copied across before you started editing the list. My suggestion: never paste rich text content if you can avoid it. It is generally not a good idea to rely on webmail interfaces (see Bob's comments for further details), so I would suggest starting all over with the document, by pasting the plain text from the original source into a new Word document. If you often need to write documents, consider saving them on a USB flash drive, or perhaps give Google Docs a try. These two solutions are more reliable than the one you are using right now, and you do not have to waste your time reformatting everything.

Although Microsoft has released a PST Import Tool for Entourage 2004 for Mac, this does not solve the problem of exporting data from Windows to Mac, because this utility can only import PST files from Outlook 2001 for the Mac.[citation needed] It is incompatible with any PST files created with Outlook for Windows.[citation needed] In other words, the Import Tool only allows transfer from Mac to Mac, *not Windows to Mac.* Figures, Microsoft hindering a Win to Mac migration.

"Newer version is already installed" error Posted: 19 Oct 2009 08:27 AM PDT Who did you get the Mac from? I have a feeling that Office 2008 may have been installed previously [perhaps the free trial] and has not been properly removed. Unless you know what you're looking for there may very well not be any visible signs of the residue, but the installer will find those remnants. Try having a look at the complete removal process described on Diane's Entourage site & see if that will enable you to install. In particular see topics 2d & 5d-#4 as well as a Spotlight search for "normal" plus any files whose name contains com.microsoft so you can delete them.

Word 2010 Template - Double Click Opens new Template, not a Document Posted: 03 Jan 2014 03:22 PM PST When I double click on a Word template, the document that opens as a .dotx file, not a .docx file.  This happens on canned templates as well as templates that I have saved.   I have tried running a "Repair" on Microsoft office with no success.   Any ideas?

How do I print "2 pages per sheet" properly? It comes out a mess!! (Pics inside) Posted: 03 Jan 2014 01:46 PM PST Please review my settings at the top, I swear they SHOULD BE CORRECT. I've done this before, but I remember it being a HUGE hassle...and didn't seem like it needed to be :( Can anyone assist?

Watermark visibility on paper Posted: 03 Jan 2014 12:00 PM PST I've encountered a small problem wit my watermarking of documents. In the background of every document I make, there is a faint Weierstrass p (℘) in the background based on the template I use. However, I've discovered that its visibility varies when I print the document. I use the text color named "White, Background 1, 5% darker" (r/g/b 242), which is quite weak, but not too weak, as I want it to be somewhat faint and thereby not dominating. I've also hooked it up to be partially transparent. Here is the deal: Whenever i print a blank page with little on no text the watermark is fine. If I use the automatic color setting on the printer, it is slightly lighter, but still tolerable. Unfortunately, if the page is covered with text, then a black-and-white print will have it considerably weaker. The same document printed with color will make the entire watermark disappear. Is there someway to change this behavior, so the watermark stays non-dominating but still slightly visible on both a black-and-white and a print with color?

Word 2010, tables getting cut off and can't change "keep with next" paragraph option Posted: 03 Jan 2014 11:34 AM PST I am exported a document from a database to Word.  The table is getting cut off the page and does not wrap to the next page.  When I go to the Outline view I can see all the text, but in the print view it just disappears from the page.  I have tried going the following with no success The file is saved as a .docx Table properties/table/wrap Row properties is marked to break across pages Paragraph...all the options are dark blue, not checked or unchecked.  I think if I could uncheck "Keep lines together" the table may display properly.  So when I click twice to make it unchecked, then select OK or I have even tried it as default, when I return to the option it just shows dark blue again.  By the way, anyone know what the dark blue box means? This is a personal computer so I should have the admin rights necessary to change this.  For Word 2010, I have given Everyone full permission, yet I still can't change these settings. Any ideas how I can get the table to fully display across pages and/or how I can change the paragraph options. thanks....

Word is Gone Posted: 03 Jan 2014 11:16 AM PST I got a new laptop with windows 8.1, I'm new to the whole windows tile experience and felt overwhelmed by it, so in cleaning up all the tiles I felt I'd never use I think I've uninstalled the word program. I still want to view and edit documents, and it came with my computer, so is there a way to get it back without paying for it?

Tables mixing up in word Posted: 03 Jan 2014 10:01 AM PST I've had a recurring issue where i'm creating a specification document which contains several basic tables. A table may be on a number of pages. For instance if table A is on pages 1 and 2 and table B is on pages 3 and 4. When i add table C it sometimes puts a blank page (page 5) and starts table C on page 6.  When i try and remove page 5 the first part of table C sites in the middle of table B whilst the rest sits correctly on the new page 5.   I've tried various page break set ups but never seem to able to stop this happening and end up starting the document from new.   Any advice????? Cheers

"Do you also want to save changes to the document template?" Posted: 03 Jan 2014 09:32 AM PST I am working on a document that was created as a new document in Word 2013.  After starting the document, I went to the Design tab and applied a style that I had previously inserted into the QuickStyles folder from previous Word versions, and applied the Style Set to the new document.   Whenever I change the document, though, it prompts me with the question: "Do you also want to save changes to the document template?" I always choose "no," and I would like to disable that question in some way.  Any ideas?

Document formatted differently on Win7 O2010 than Win7 O2007, XP O2010 and XP O2007 Posted: 03 Jan 2014 09:04 AM PST User sent us a Word document to post to our web site.  She believes she edited it last in Office 2007.  It does not render properly in the combination of Windows 7 and Office 2010. We've tried the document on Windows 7, Office 2010 = 3 pages Windows XP, Office 2010 = 2 pages Windows XP, Office 2007 = 2 pages The attempts were not done on the user's computer so whatever template it may be referencing is inconsequential since it doesn't exist on any of our test computers but renders correctly on two.

Font and windows on Office Word changes very unstable Posted: 03 Jan 2014 06:59 AM PST I have Windows 8 and Student Office 2007. My font continually changes while I am working on the document. I don't do anything to make this change. Sometimes it goes from small to large and vice versa. Sometimes when I set the size to 12 or 14 it still comes out  really small. When I print it out though it comes our large, sometimes too large since I increased the size to accommodate the document while it's still on the computer. I can't help but think it is an issue with Windows 8. I can't go to 8.1 because it causes my Internet Explorer to stop working and it won't work with Family Tree Maker. I have had to do a full recovery twice.

Directory name is invalid on word following windows 8.1 update Posted: 03 Jan 2014 05:30 AM PST I have been working on a document for the past few weeks on Microsoft word, yesterday I received a message telling me to update my computer to windows 8.1, I did this and restarted my computer.

Word 2010 stopped showing .eps files Posted: 03 Jan 2014 03:13 AM PST Hello people of the internet, I work in IT support and have a customer who suddenly can't view her .eps files in Word 2010 and the entire office pack. It's a thing that suddenly just stopped working. Until a couple of weeks ago, there was no problem at all. She is accessing Word through Citrix which connects to our terminal server. The problem is on the server itself and trough Citrix. Iv'e been seaching trough almost the intire google, and none of the answers seems to help. I've tryed reinstall the filter, reinstall Office, checking the file block settings in Word, making it a .doc document. But nothing seems to be working. If i download the files to my own pc, Word opens it without any problem, both 2010 and 2013. If i convert the .eps files into .png etc. (wihch is not an acceptable solution), Word opens it without problems too,. Office and the server is fully updated etc. Do mind that all this is running on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard terminal server. You would save my day if you could come up with the soloution! Thank you, Rasmus Gyldenvang

Word 2013 : Changing which thesaurus is used in word Posted: 02 Jan 2014 06:56 PM PST I opened the thesaurus for the first time today and it asked me to select bing, dictionary or something else. I chose bing, but I don't like its results. I want to change to use another provider but I can't figure out how. I am using English(Australia) as my language but the thesaurus is using English(United Kingom) because Australia wasn't available. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.   Old title: Changing which thesaurus is used in word

Microsoft Word 2013 randomly stops and goes into "Not Responding" Mode. Posted: 02 Jan 2014 05:33 PM PST Hello, I have been struggling with an issue with my 2013 office. Whenever I use 2013 Word and use it for around 5-10 minutes, or hit save after making multiple edits to any documents after 5-10 minutes, typically around the same period of time. Word freezes and goes into not responding mode. It doesn't save any progress I made. I haven't attempted to work with any of the other programs, I have the professional suite. I've dealt with support twice on this issue and even had them take control of my machine and look into it themselves. We ended up force uninstalling word 2013 as it would not allow me to simply uninstall it via control panel programs and features. We were able to successfully install it without any issues and it was working fine for the first couple days. And after not using it for about a week, now the same issue is reoccurring and I can reproduce the error with ease.  I cannot find any similar issues specifically related with this details for any other customers. If I do not receive any resolutions shortly, I will have to bring my machine to the Microsoft store for them to investigate my machine and see what the occurrence is. If anything, the file being downloaded is corrupted as I do not have any issues with any other files whatsoever on my machine.

Mail Merge Template with Auto Numbering Posted: 02 Jan 2014 04:14 PM PST Hello, I created a mail merge template that has auto numbering.  My problem is, when I save the merged documents and reopen it, the numbering changes.  Instead of seeing:             I see:                 4.      5.      6.

How Do You Set Details View When Opening/Viewing Templates in MS Word 2010? Posted: 02 Jan 2014 03:26 PM PST I would like to be able to see the Details View of files when I choose to create a new/view choices for MS Word Template documents, in the Explorer view that comes up when saving or opening a Word document file. See screenshots below. In other words, when I try to view or open previous or existing Word templates, I am only shown the large icon layout view, and I have no other choices as I normally do when opening/viewing/saving Word documents. How can the inner "Word Explorer" view be changed to Details view? This is the problematic view I'm trying to change: And this is the kind of view I want: Thanks

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.

running Microsoft Greetings 99 in Windows XP Posted: 27 May 2007 09:09 PM PDT Hi ElysiaDuke, Probably the most important piece of the KB article applicable to your circumstances and to which I directed you may be: "If the compatibility settings do not resolve the issue, please consider upgrading to the latest version of Microsoft Greetings, or Microsoft Picture It!
