| I had to un-install Office 2013 due to problems with Outlook, how do I re-install Word 2013 Posted: 04 Jan 2014 02:01 PM PST Having installed Outlook 2013 and Windows Mail on a HP Envoy 23 All in One PC running Windows 8, not 8.1, we have since spent three days trying to find out where our emails kept disappearing to only to discover that this is a known, but outstanding, fault.
The solution is to un-install Office 2013 because that is the only way to remove Outlook, in doing so you have to un-install all of the suite of Office 2013 programmes, and now I want to re-install Word.
I would like to meet the team leader at Microsoft who came up with this idiotic solution, obviously he thinks his software is so good that it will never need un-installing.
So folks Windows 8 instructions and messages imply that you can re-install the programmes but give no clear guidance on doing it.
Help please. |
| Microsoft Word Will Not Delete Anything Posted: 04 Jan 2014 01:55 PM PST I never encountered this before in Microsoft Office 2007. I am editting a document in Word and suddenly Word will not delete anything. It makes no difference if I press the delete key or select the text and then select cut or delete nothing will happen. Right now my document is full of errors and I cannot delete them. Any ideas on correcting this problem? Rich from NC |
| Cant Access MS Office Posted: 04 Jan 2014 01:55 PM PST Hi All,
I have windows 2013 professional plus installed on my laptop. It was working fine a few days ago but now i am unable to open any MS Office programs.
I have tried the following things so far: tried opening word in safe mode - did not work tried running winword.exe as an admin - did not work tried booting windows into safe mode and then opening word - did not work
the event log is Faulting application name: WINWORD.EXE, version: 15.0.4551.1006, time stamp: 0x5269335a Faulting module name: mso.dll, version: 15.0.4551.1007, time stamp: 0x52714b2d Exception code: 0xc000001d Fault offset: 0x0126b61d Faulting process id: 0xe7c Faulting application start time: 0x01cf099539de31c1 Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15\WINWORD.EXE Faulting module path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Office15\mso.dll
The mso.dll file is in the folder, but i have no idea how to go about checking if it's compromised or not. Any help or advice would be really great! Thanks.
*edit: Forgot to mention that the error I get when I try and open is: Microsft Word has Stopped Working.

| Word 2010-Changes letter to legal Posted: 04 Jan 2014 10:45 AM PST Start document in letter and it changes to legal. Will not allow a change back to letter. Get the message "Increasing right margin causes last column to become too narrow in some sections having unevenly spaced columns." Default is set to letter. Suggestions? |
| creating a table of contents as breadcrumbs throughout a long document Posted: 04 Jan 2014 10:31 AM PST I've got a long document I've written which has a beautiful table of contents at the beginning which programatically associated with sections of the document and therefore easily updated (thank you MS!). I had this thought, however, that it would be nice to have a sort of second table of contents which appears on each page throughout the document as sort of a breadcrumb. That way the user can see where they are in relation to the rest of the content. I think of it is similar to the cut-away-tabs on old dictionaries which would both tell you where you are and easily let you jump to a different letter only a bit more sophisticated (mine would have clickable links for the digital version). I can do it manually (I create a long skinny text box that sits on the left or right margin of a given page and then drop the list of content into it bolding the active section) but I'd rather find a way to have it automatically update. Has anyone done anything like this? Can it be done? Am I reaching the limits of the program (albeit impressively far limits but perhaps limits nonetheless)? Thanks in advance!

| Shortcut disablement Microsoft Word 2007 Posted: 04 Jan 2014 08:26 AM PST Hi! I want to disable specific shortcuts the command name of which I do not know, or the category they belong to either -such as Ctrl+alt+2 ; furthermore, using the macro to generate the command list is not useful as it does not include, for instance, common symbols such as Ctrl+&,o which inserts œ. Could I just enter a batch of Modifiers+key strings so that all of them are disabled at once? Thank you in advance! |

| Installation and activation of German proofing tools Posted: 04 Jan 2014 07:27 AM PST I have installed the free 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the German Proofing tools from the Microsoft office website for Office 2013. However, in the "Set Language Preference" of Word, I continue to receive the status that the proofing tool is not installed. I can activate the language in this box but the German proofing continues not working. I have restarted the Office applications and Windows 7, but with no success. Any tips? |
| Main Tabs wont open when clicked Posted: 04 Jan 2014 02:55 AM PST I have just downloaded Office Home and Student 2013. If I open a Word document and minimise the screen, all main tabs function ok.

If I minimise the screen, it does! |

| Missing Fonts Posted: 03 Jan 2014 04:57 PM PST I just purchased a new Dell, along with Office 2013 Home & Student. The past 8 years I've been using an Apple, but thought I'd give Microsoft another try. Upon using, however, I find that my favorite font, Baskerville, is no where to be found. I've searched through a number of the sites listed on Microsoft's page of free font foundries, but to no avail. Am I missing something or has Baskerville been retired from the Microsoft world?
This seems like such a trifle, but it's these little things that can affect how we respond to a product.
Thanks

| How can I print mobile Office 365 docs from an android smart phone to a Brother printer?

| Bug in Microsoft Word Posted: 03 Jan 2014 04:15 PM PST I discovered a bug in Microsoft Word 2010.
I Windows Explorer, if you have the file preview pane turned on, and you click on a Word file, it will attempt to display a preview of the contents of that file in the preview pane. This means it needs to start WINWORD.EXE. What that means is that if you clicked on the word file in order to, let's say, rename it, you won't be able to. Or if you clicked on it and then hit delete in order to delete it, you won't be able to. It'll tell you that the file is already open and you can't rename or delete it. Any time I want to do this, I have to open the task manager, stop WINWORD.EXE, and then rename or delete (or whatever).
Does anyone know how to fix this?

| Cannot open email attachements from hotmail/outlook Posted: 03 Jan 2014 12:18 PM PST I have windows 8.1, office 2013, and every time I try to open an email attachment (i.e. Download as zip.) regardless of the type of file (word, ppt. excel...) the computer tries to open the document in Microsoft word, and I get the following messages: "We're sorry, we cannot open ... because we found a problem with its contents." I then click 'OK', and the next message says: "We found unreadable content in .... Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you trust the source of this document, click Yes." I then click "Yes," and then I am told, "We're sorry, we can't open ... because we found a problem with its contents." Note: I know the source of the documents and know them to be trusted. I tried going into Word/options/trust center/trust center settings/protected view and unchecked each of the three "Enable Protected View for files..." originating from the internet, located in potentially unsafe locations, and for Outlook attachments -- to no avail. I can open the attachments if I select "View online." Is this my only option? Never had this problem with Windows 7/ Office 2007. Can you help? |
| Word 2010 : 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? Old title: Watermark visibility on paper |
