Posted: 15 Jan 2014 01:55 PM PST

Hello:

I have a document that came to me with edits made using the Track Changes feature in Word.  I would like to be able to add additional changes without accepting or rejecting the existing changes.  I also would like my changes to be a different color than the existing changes.  Is this possible?  If so, how?


Thanks very much for the assistance.

Help with Office windows 8

Posted: 15 Jan 2014 12:09 PM PST

Hello

I hope you can help me.  I have recently purchased Office 2013 Home and Student for my new laptop running Windows 8.  
After installation I have only been able to open office products from the desktop, I have not been able to open any documents from explorer or a usb.
This meant that in word for example, I could work on a new document or on recent documents that I had woorked on since installation.
However, now I cannot open any Office applications at all.  Once opened the message "Getting your new Office ready for you" appears.  This then stays on the screen and the only way I can exit this is through task manager.

If I try and access Office through other way than the icon on the desktop I am asked to Activate office (as I have already purchased).  I follow the steps and I am the given the message that something has gone wrong! Sorry we ran into a problem.

Please could somebody advise me how to fix this as it would seem that Office has not installed properly.  

  

Spell checker problem

Today as I was using the spell check in Word (office 2013) it changed to Spanish and won't allow me to change back to English.  I've also gone into the ribbon and its set to English.  I've closed word and opened it back up again. I also rebooted the computed but to no avail.  Please help. Thanks, Lois

Automatic Paragraph Numbering

Posted: 15 Jan 2014 11:48 AM PST

Hi,

I type reports using tables.  Each new item is typed in a new table (with a paragraph number) and these are typed into the document under different headings in no particular order (i.e., back and forth - not in a numbered list structure).  These are then sorted in a specific way (but taking all the numbers out of sequence) and the tables are joined so I end up with one table under each heading.  

Each item must retain the number with which it was typed into the document.  This is currently done manually but can be difficult to remember what number you used last (especially when it is a large report and you have got to over 200....) without writing down the number....  

Does anyone know a way to automatically insert a number (with say a keystroke or similar) which Word then sees as text so that when the tables are moved around the numbering is retained as is (not re-numbered in order).

Hope this makes sense to someone...  Thanks in advance .... in anticipation!

Office 2013 - wrong language

Sorry, we are having some temporary server issues. You can work off line if you plan to insert pictures from your computer

Posted: 15 Jan 2014 11:01 AM PST

We have about 200 users that connect to three terminal servers. On the servers we have Office 2013 installed. Several users are stating that when they attempt to search for templates or insert Online Pictures, they are getting error messages of "Sorry, we are having some temporary server issues. You can work off line if you plan to insert pictures from your computer"

 

Remember, they are connecting to a terminal server, all have roaming profiles, and for some users this works fine.

 

We've Googled the error message and found no help. A lot of responses was to reset the IE settings, which we've tried to no avail.

 

We also took a long look at was posted here: http://angrytechnician.wordpress.com/2013/05/15/office-2013-error-sorry-we-are-having-some-temporary-server-issues/ but this didn't help us either as the registry key we were looking for wasn't present.

 

Also as a test, we took one of the users that was having the issue and deleted their profile. When they logged back on the server, the same problem occurred again.

We're currently at a loss as to why it works for some users and not others?

 

Any ideas out there?

Unable to open excel objects in word documents

Posted: 15 Jan 2014 10:34 AM PST

I am using Office 2010 on a Windows 7 machine.

I created some tables in a word document by inserting an Excel worksheet as an object and then populating it with information.  I now want to open those objects and edit them.  But I get the following message:

"The program used to create this object is Excel.  The program is either not installed on your computer or is not responding.  To edit this object, install excel or ensure that all dialog boxes in Excel are closed."

I have tried ensuring that all of excel is closed.  I have tried it with excel open but no files open. I have "repaired" Office 2010 and I have rebooted the machine.  But none of this seems to work.

I can open the files on a different windows 7 machine as well as a Mac.

Thanks.

HELP! word office 2010 not opening!

Posted: 15 Jan 2014 10:01 AM PST

Microsoft Word on my laptop has seemingly died. It will not open or do anything and being a student it is driving me nuts that i can't use this basic feature. I have had my laptop for a couple of years now and Office Home and Student 2010 came with it. All the other office programs like excel and powerpoint are working fine. I have had no problems with office until now. It's very frustrating. Please help.

Creating a template in Word 2010 with macros

Posted: 15 Jan 2014 09:35 AM PST

I am trying to duplicate a template that was created in Word 2007.  That template has a list of files, with a check box next to each file name, and a "button" at the end of the document that is clicked and creates a new document that includes the checked/selected files in sequence.  As an example, say there is a list of files A through R; the check boxes next to A, C, D, F, and L are checked, but none of the others.  When the "button" at the end of the list is clicked, a new document file (.docx) is created that includes all of the text from files A, C, D, F, and L, in that order.

 

How is this done?  Can anyone direct me to some step-by-step directions for creating a similar template?

Word Opens Wrong File

Posted: 15 Jan 2014 09:20 AM PST

I have a directory with 4 Word files in it.  One I created, the other 3 were given to me.  They each have different saved dates and file sizes.  No matter which file name I click on to open it opens the largest file (one of the given to me files).  This happens even when I click on the file I created.  It's almost like the four files are linked.  I've tried opening the files on another computer and get the same results.  Any suggestions?  Have I lost the information in the three smaller files?

Word incorrect chapter numbering when skipping chapters

Posted: 15 Jan 2014 08:37 AM PST

Hello there,

I am editing a document for which the TOC needs to indicate chapter numbers as well as page numbers within that chapter. I have always used to do this without any problem. However, this document is special as the chapters are not really sequential. They jump sometimes. The reason for the 'jump' is that the chapter number refers to a industry code (to be exact: Air Transport Association ATA 100 coding. In this code 21 would be anything that has to do with Air Conditioning, so chapter 21, or Heading 1 with the number 21 would talk about air conditioning)
So I have a document that starts out traditionally with Heading 1: 1 Introduction, 2 Something Else, 3.... and then jumps from 5 to 21. I do this with right clicking the number of the Heading 1 title and setting the number value to 21 (start new list / set value to 21). Then there are a few chapters that follow sequentially but then again a jump from 36 to 49.
All chapters are separated by section breaks (next page)

In the header and footer I add the information of the chapter by inserting a field (styleref / heading 1) and the paragraph number, by looking up the heading 1 reference from the bottom up. Also in the footer I add the pagenumber as well as the chapter number. The Styleref works perfectly: in each header and footer the correct Paragraph and styleref gets mentioned.

Now the problem: In the section that follows the 'jump', the pagenumber that contains the chapternumber, does not recognize the applicable chapter number.
The next chapter does not show a problem. In my case

Chapter 1: page number 1-1, 1-2, etc (CORRECT)
Chapter 2: page number 2-1, 2-2, ...(CORRECT)
...
Chapter 5: page number 5-1, 5-2, ...(CORRECT)
JUMP Chapter 21: page number 5-1, 5-2, ... (INCORRECT)
Chapter 22: page number 22-1, 22-2, ...(CORRECT)
....
Chapter 36: page number 36-1, 36-2, ... (CORRECT)
JUMP Chapter 49: page number 36-1, 36-2, .... (INCORRECT)
Chapter 50: page number 50-1, 50-2, ... (CORRECT)

What can be the reason, and the solution ?

Thanks,

Tom

Scanning picture into document and/or e-mail

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 04:26 PM PST

I have an 2013 Acer "all in one" which is okay, prior to this I had an old Dell (which wad upgraded). On the Dell it was Windows XP - loved it, loved it, loved it. I had worked in a hospital for 25 years which changed from Baxter to HBO and many times to Horizons, and each upgrade though somewhat challenging, I overcame in a day. Windows 8 was forced on me as Bell told me they would no longer support Windows XP. I checked with Microsoft and they confirmed that as well. I have Microsoft Office installed. What a piece of **** Windows 8 turned out to be, especially with simply scanning a picture into a document or e-mail. Because Windows 8 changed systems it left Microsoft office in the "weeds" . Yes I know it can be scanned into "one note" but what a pain, and the person receiving the that document download cannot open it unless they have Windows 8. I came in on the ground floor of Windows product line and never ever, ever had an issue with it!!!! This is insane. FIX IT - I don't care how, I don't know when but JUST DO IT. I rely heavily online with Government downloads and also with personal downloads. Do something, anything. I feel like I have been manipulated into purchases that are barbaric. So perhaps this needs Barbaric surgery. I expect this to be fixed, I have always been of the conviction that I don't care how a program works as long as I can use it. I know there have been multiple complaints about 8.0, I don't expect to pay for "patches" and when income tax rolls around this had better be compatible. It is like a television to me - don't know how it works, don't care!!!! I just want to know when I want to use it - it works. I don't want to be told that it won't work, unless I upgrade anything. Thanking you in advance for your assistance in this matter,

Decimal tabs don't tab on ) in Word 2013

I can't make my labels print out to fit an Avery template

Too much space between the heading "Notes"and the text of the endnotes

Posted: 28 Jan 2010 02:16 PM PST

I'm afraid that I for one don't understand what you're asking... You seem to
be saying you want more space without adding more space & I just don't how
to respond to that. If you can more clearly describe what you're working
with, exactly what you want to accomplish, & what's preventing you from
getting it done perhaps someone can offer a meaningful suggestion or two.

It might also be a good idea to post in the Word Forum rather than the
general Office Forum since this appears to be a Word-specific issue. Be sure
to indicate your update levels of Office & OS X just in case.

Compatibilty between Office 2007-PC and Office 04-Mac

Posted: 22 Jan 2010 07:57 AM PST

Mac Office 2004 compatibility with MS Office 2007. I had a similar problem. There is an XML file converter which your student can download. In MS Office for Mac he should click Help which will take him through to the specific MS web-site where the file can be downloaded. It is a small file and I have found it works adequately to read files created in all later editions of MS Office programs.

importing excel and word documents from pc to mac

Posted: 19 Jan 2010 01:19 PM PST

What do you mean by "import"?

If you just mean 'move the files' from one computer to another the process
is no different than any other copy/move operation -- Howard has given you
several ideas already.

Other than that, there is no 'importing' that need be done. Office apps on
the Mac use the same file formats as the Windows versions so most files
should open directly once they're brought to your Mac. Unless the files use
problem fonts, Windows-specific objects, unique features found only in the
Windows versions or VBA they should open seamlessly.

Hi Kevin,
 

Well in theory you could simply leave Office 2008 as is when you
upgrade, but the process doesn't import previous .pkg for third party
installers, etc, so it might be safer to completely reinstall.

How to Upgrade from Office Home&Studentto Biz Ed. Installer won't work.

Posted: 13 Jan 2010 07:23 PM PST

While considering "policies" are you aware of the one that allows you to use
the Business Edition Upgrade if you have the source disk for *any* prior
version of *any* Office program going back to Office 98? That's clearly
stated in the Upgrade eligibility requirements... Just before the part which
explicitly specifies that other editions of 2008 don't qualify for the
upgrade:

Upgrade Eligibility
You can upgrade to Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac Business Edition if you are
a licensed user of:
€Any Office for Mac 98-2004 suite
€Any Office for Mac 98-2004 standalone application (Excel, Word, or
Powerpoint)
Office 2008 for Mac editions do not qualify for upgrade pricing.

Surely you must have held onto at least *1* Mac Office source disk obtained
over the last 28 years. Pop it in when prompted during installation of BE.

Make sure you do a full removal of the H/S version using the Remove Office
utility ‹ you can't have two installations of the same version installed
side-by-side. Some suggestions are available from the links here;

This is a free demo course that takes you through using the CRM sales

to contact a partner in your local area that is CRM certified. They should be
able to give you a live demo of the product. From your description of your

I have corrected the problem through the brute force approach. I have

was at the very beginning of configuring my machine, so it wasn't much work
lost.

However, I am now faced with this error when I try to go offline:

CRM Sales for Outlook cannot go offline. The logged on user does not have
the sufficient privileges, or the Microsoft CRM server was not found.

Also, I do not seem to be able to create CRM contacts/Appts/Tasks, etc.
(i.e. cannot link them to CRM objects).

But you need to first go into the IE browser and into the user admin from there
to assign a license to your own userid. As I indicated, this is convered in the
implementation guide.

Customizing the "NOTES" form ? Can we ?

Posted: 16 Sep 2004 12:58 PM PDT

Here's some sample code to do it.

It should be obvious where it needs to be pasted, once you've checked the
asp file
<tr>
<td class="req">Title</td>
<!--<td><cnt:AppTextInputControl id="subject" required
maxlength="255" runat="server"/></td>-->
<td><input name="subject" value="<%= DateTime.Now.ToString()%> -
"></input></td>
</tr>

As you can see, the standard MS CRM code has been commented out, and
replaced with a very simple text box which displays todays date/time as a
default

Opinion on MS CRM

Posted: 16 Sep 2004 07:26 AM PDT

Hi Fred,

In quick words, the software is in its first version (not quite stable).
There is some problem with the MS CRM Email (GUID attached to the subject).
There is no appointement sharing. MS CRM requires lots of prequesties
software (Active Directory in Native Mode (XP and above), SQL Server and MS
Exchange for emailing. There is also some problem that will be solved in 2.0
like activity customization and Interobject relationships. You can not set
up security on certain fields of a MS CRM object; You can either see or not
see the whole object. It is also impossible to have a user member of more
than one sales territory. There is no activity pop up reminders in MS CRM
Web Clients. MS CRM does not allow the capability to detect MS CRM Objects
that have file attachements. You can not add a unlimited number of fields
due to a SQL Server limitations. MS CRM is per nominative user so each MS
CRM user requires a unique license. It is hard in MS CRM to enforce Cross
Selling since you cannot have an advanced find on orders relating customers
and products. It is also hard to link competitor to account. You can only
link competitor to opportunities. MS CRM will only integrate with Great
Plains 8.0 beginning December 2004

As for the advantages,
MS CRM is extremely user friendly (The user will easily learn how to use
it). MS CRM is a web application. MS CRM may be very easily custimized. MS
CRM is a new product built under .NET so advanced custimization and
integration is very powerful compared to other CRM Systems that have old
software architectures and may not be customized. Hence, you will be able to
customize detailed, specific and needed requirements through the SDK.
Microsoft Support is remarkable concerning MS CRM. You can always excpet a
reply or a phone call for MS Support in the same day you requested help. MS
CRM is an extremely dynamic product (Because of MS). You can expect new
features in Version 2.0 (Activity Management and Interrelationship objects)
and customer portal in Version 3.0.

In sumarry, consider MS CRM if you are Microsoft oriented in your IT
Infrastructure and never pursue a MS CRM adventure without having a
dedicated partner that is commited to delivery and support. If those two
prerequistes are found, installing MS CRM will certainly be the right and
lucrative action to do.

Regards,

Microsoft Word - How can i both underline and strikeout text within a footnote?

Microsoft Word - How can i both underline and strikeout text within a footnote?

How can i both underline and strikeout text within a footnote?

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 02:56 PM PST

I'm working with a legal document that makes extensive use of footnotes.  The author wants to underline some text, and strike through other text.  Is there a way to do this?  I'm currently trying to find a solution using the "Footnote Text" style option.  Any advice is greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

Style Pane Management (Footnote text style won't show when used)

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 01:01 PM PST

With my Normal.dotm open, in my Manage Styles dialog>Edit tab, I have the following styles set to "Hide until used:"


Header

Footer

Footnote Reference

Footnote Text


There are others set that way but for the purposes of this question, that is all I will list.


Now, when I open a new document and click in the header or footer, the "Header" and "Footer" styles automatically appear in the Styles Pane.  This makes perfect sense as I know that all six of the header and footer storyranges are created when I first access either a header or footer.


Now, here is the strange part.  If I type some text in the document and then insert a footnote, the footnote reference number appears and the footnote text appears in the document.  I am assuming that both Footnote Reference and Footnote Text styles are now "in use" as I can see them in the document, but they do not appear in the Styles pane.


The only way I can get these styles to appear in the Styles Pane is to go back to the Manage Styles dialog and explicitly set them to show.


Is this a bug?  Can anyone else repeat this behavior or I am I simply doing something wrong?

Unable to open a WORD attachment in a email

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 12:46 PM PST

I recently installed Word 2013 and am getting a pop-up box when trying to open an attachment that is in WORD format.  The message says "Word has run into an error that is preventing it from working correctly. Word will need to be closed. Would you like us to repair now?'  I click YES and nothing changes when I try to open the attachment.  What can I do now?

Errors on opening a saved Word document that was being edited

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 12:21 PM PST

I had saved a 25 page Word document that was being edited using Track Changes & Comments etc. On reopening the document all Comments and Formating changes were visible, but all additions and omissions (e.g. corrections to spelling made using Track changes) had been lost. Additionally every word in some paragraghs had been duplicated, and some paragraghs had moved in to Comments boxes. I appear to have no interim or correct saved versions, so will need to redo all the Track changes. Any thoughts on the reasons, and what to do to prevent a recurrence? 

Word 2003 loses focus when opening a new document

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 11:54 AM PST

 I either click on a file to open in Word or I use Open in Word to open the file.  Either way the newly opened file doesn't have focus.  So I have to Alt_Tab to it to bring it into focus.  Imagine you're working on many documents, switching between them all and you've got to hassle with this all the time?  Every other program I use retains focus.  Why would you want to lose focus if you just clicked on the file?  I should mention also that the file name is highlighted on the Taskbar.  Why?  I just clicked it.  Does MIcrosoft think I just forgot what I just clicked on?  Amazing that people actually get paid for being this illogical and inefficient.  

Word 2003 can't remember View settings.

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 11:30 AM PST

It keeps on starting with Normal view and then there is a margin on the left for some reason.  I never put it there.  I hate margins.  They waste space.  I almost never print.  I just want it to default to Web view. You'd think a program would open in the last setting it closed in.  But no.  Microsoft seems to think we're all idiots and can't think for ourselves.  And it doesn't matter that almost every other program on the planet would remember its previous settings the next time it opened.  


So is there a way of rectifying this glaring deficiency?  


I've tried editing the Normal.dot file but it still opens in Normal instead of Web View.

MS Word 2010 - Using Built-In Document Properties for Repeating Data in a Template

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 10:28 AM PST

I am creating MS Word templates in version 2010. There are pieces of data that repeat throughout the document, for this I have put in built-in document properties that are not otherwise used. Users are able to enter what they like in the document property field and other instances of the same field throughout the document populate. During template creation, I made sure that the document property values for those properties that I want to use as entry fields are blank in the template. It was my understanding that the values for document properties are stored in the document itself, therefore when opening the template the fields should appear blank as I set them up. However, when running trials on my template, I have found that opening the template on different machines and by different users yields variable results. The document property fields should always appear empty until the initial user entry, but they have been opening with data already generated. My questions:

 

  1.  Is it true that the built-in document property values are stored in the document itself and are not unique to the user ID or machine?
  2.  If item 1 is true - is it true off all built-in properties or only some of them? I am using the following properties for user entry:
  • publish date
  • abstract
  • category
  • subject
  • manager
  • keywords
  • company

Thanks for your help!

 

Changing order of tracked changes

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 10:10 AM PST

I spend a lot of time trading documents with tracked changes with others.  One office with whom a lot of e-mail is exchanged insists that, when some text is replaced with other text, the added text should come first and then the deleted text should follow.  Since Word defaults to showing deleted text first and added text after that, tracking comparisons becomes messier than it ought to be. 

Is there any way to change the default order these changes are displayed (so that when a file loads a replacement of text will have the added text first and the deleted text after that)--either by a setting change or via macro?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

proofing errors message continues

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 09:37 AM PST

With a blank document open, an icon appears almost instantly stating that Word is checking for proofing errors.
Also the cursor becomes a circle like the i is calculating. I made adjustments in the settings to switch of grammar and spelling control, but nothing changes.

After a while I get the message saying there is not enough memory to do anything anymore and I have to close Word.
Any ideas?

Suppressing ruler in "old" full-screen view

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 08:43 AM PST

I prefer to edit a document without any of the ribbons, toolbars, menus, and other distractions. In Word 2007, I can do in the  full-screen mode (alt-v-u). But the ruler has showed up, even in this mode, and I can't get rid of it! Any idea how to get rid of the ruler in this full-screen mode?

Copy Drop-Down List

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 08:34 AM PST

I'm creating a form in Word, that will be saved as a template. I have a table on the form and would like to add a drop-down box of the same content in several spots on the table. I tried to cut and paste, but found that does not work. How do I duplicate a drop-down box with the same content to be used on the form in several locations? 

Bulltes and Sections linking

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 07:07 AM PST

I am creating a multi sectioned word document that will grow and change over time. Right now the bullets I have in the document are numbered the same as the section, however if I was to ever insert a new section in the document I will be forced to renumber all my bullets further down the document. Is it possible to line the bullet number directly to the section number?

Forms - to be completed by hand and/or electronically

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 06:58 AM PST

Hi

I'm new to Forms, so please be gentle with me!

I am creating a form which some users will complete electronically, but others will print out and complete by hand.

I have set up the fields, which now show <<Click here to enter text>> everywhere that a response is required.

The problem is that when the form is printed, <<Click here to enter text>> also prints, so there is no room for users to handwrite an answer. 

Is there a way to either:
  1. Have this text not print.
  2. Have a field there, but without the text (the design of the form makes it fairly obvious where they need to enter something).

Thanks.

Word 2013 can't render xml based docs correctly

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 04:14 AM PST

I use the BIRT reporting tool to generate word reports for the company I work for. 
The tool outputs an xml based word doc and up until now there has been no issues with our reports, until we started using Office 2013.
I am confident that this is not an issue with the tool as previous versions of it and the current version have worked fine with previous versions of word but we are now seeing issues with older and current versions of our reports in word 2013. 

The same report viewed in office 2010 looks perfect but it 2013 random tables in the report start getting torn apart or go missing, there are formatting errors and text get overlapped from one line into another .
It differs from report to report where the errors occur but given the same report viewed on multiple devices running office 2013 the errors appear in the same place, so its not a completely random occurrence. 

It is also not a view issue as I have printed the docs and printing from 2010 is fine, but 2013 still has a large amount of errors. 
In some cases when printing 2013 takes information in one column from one cell and puts it into another cell above or below it, all other cells get populated correctly but this one column gets populated with the wrong information in each of the cells.
This is what has led me to believe that it must be an issue with word as the idea of skipping around an xml file to pick an element that is not in sequence points to an obvious flaw in its ability to render xml correctly. 

Viewing the doc in its raw xml form it seems to have the correct tags.
My question is can someone point me somewhere where I could do a comparison of what xml tags are expected in 2010 vs 2013 and if there has been any change to the schema?
Or if someone has the knowledge; is this a known issue and is there a bug in 2013 that causes this?

Thanks
Alan 

Microsoft Office 2013 Applications are not working

Posted: 14 Jan 2014 03:29 AM PST

Hi.

I have installed Microsoft Office Student from the Windows Store. It has been working fine for nearly a year now, but suddenly, it doesnt seem to work. I have gone onto Control Panel to Repair it, and i have uninstalled and reinstalled it again, to no avail. When i open Word/Excel/PP, all that comes is a blank screen, with no commands or text available. Any help wouold be deeply appreciated.

This is what Word Looks like:

Access Denied. Contact the administrator.

Posted: 13 Jan 2014 09:05 PM PST

Hello,

We are a small company using WindowsServer2008R2 Enterprise software for our file server. Users are using Microsoft Office 2010 on Windows 7 Professional. All users have similar permissions.

When I open a file from file server on my computer, and edit -> save -> close it, after that neither me nor other users are able to open the file. We all get error "Access Denied. Contact your administrator". 

Note that if OTHER users do the same (i.e. open a file from file server on my computer, and edit -> save -> close it), we dont get the same error. We all are easily able to open the file.

Please suggest a solution urgently.

Thanks

Word 2010 - Template is duplicating text after unprotected option is deleted.

Posted: 13 Jan 2014 07:07 PM PST

I have a multi-section template using Legacy form fields for inputs in protected sections.  There is an unprotected section where the text may be deleted in full in some cases.  However, if retained, there is data to be added, hence unprotected.

 

If the text is deleted in full, including the Return to ensure paragraph spacing/numbering continues, this brings the two continuous section breaks together.  When that occurs, the first paragraph in the next protected section is repeating when the document is printed.  The Reading or Draft view on screen looks fine, but Print Preview and Printed version shows the paragraph being duplicated.

 

Can anyone suggest why this is occurring and what could be done to resolve this?

Line spacing

Posted: 13 Jan 2014 04:48 PM PST

I'm trying to print Avery return address labels (#8167) with three lines of text. I used to do this easily using Word Perfect but cannot figure out how to do it in MS Word 2010. The problem is that Word only wants to print two lines of text. I've tried using the home page to adjust the line spacing and I've tried to adjust the paragraph spacing but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions?
