Microsoft word doc won't open in email Posted: 02 Feb 2014 02:58 PM PST When I try to open a word doc from my files or from an outlook email attachment, I get a blue word screen with no document showing. However, if I first open word, I can then open my file documents and the email attachment (if I first save it to file)? |
Previous Versions Tab is not showing Posted: 02 Feb 2014 02:06 PM PST I just overwrote a file and closed the document. When I go back to open the document, there is no sign of the previous version even though I created the document yesterday and know that more than 10 minutes has past to create the restore point. I have right clicked the document in the explorer and no restore previous tab. I've gone to the document in word file>info>Versions--no show up. I've right clicked the document in word open dialog box and not restore previous tab there either. Can someone share any tips for finding the original I've written over? AND, can you share with me how to look and see if I have the feature turned off? I have Windows 8.1 and Word 2010. Many thanks. |
Inserting Table of figures saved as BB replaces existing TOC Posted: 02 Feb 2014 12:14 PM PST I thought i could simplify the TOC, TOF, TOT and TOA by saving them as building blocks and simply have users click on a customized ribbon button for inserting those they need whenever they need. However it is not working so well since it automatically replaces the existing table. Alternately, I saved them using the "save selection in the TOC gallery" from the insert TOC menu. Same issue. Is it the way it is? I guess might as well write macros to generate them on the fly instead of wasting more time with the issue? |
Problem - Unspecified Error, word/document.xml, Line:2, Column: 0 Posted: 02 Feb 2014 09:01 AM PST Hello all, I have a problem with a document of which now appears to be corrupt. This is an important document to me for i am undertaking my final year doing A Levels and this document contains some important exam work. The problem: I begun working and completed the piece of work on my computer, thus, saved it to a memory stick to print it at college the next day. Some time later that same day, i plugged the memory stick into my laptop and attempted to open the same document to check my work, which is when i incurred problems. The message - word/document.xml, Line:2, Column: 0 appeared and so i can not open nor view the document now because there 'appears to be a problem with the content'. :'(!!! My solutions: I have tried almost everything under the sun to recover the file but my attempts have been worthless. I have tried windows recovery, opening and repairing, uploading the document to the internet, opening the file with something other than word, recovering just text and downloading numerous so-called 'doc.x file recoverers'. To anyone that would be able to help, i would be very grateful. I have uploaded the file to here http://www.sendspace.com/file/8jquk5 Thanks. |
Microsoft Office 2003 edition Posted: 02 Feb 2014 07:04 AM PST When I access an existing Word document or try to set up a new Word document, I get a Windows Installer message that basically states that I need to insert the original Microsoft Office 2003 CD or browse my network to find the "install source" if the Microsoft Office 2003 program was installed over the computer network. Since I am unable to meet either of these two requirements, I get error message that states that read installation file SKU 112.CAB could not be found. Thus, I am not able to do anything using my Microsoft Office 2003 edition !! Note that my HP computer is approx. 7 years old and uses Windows XP. Any ideas and suggestions will be appreciated! >> Hugh |
Managing Bibliography in MS Office Posted: 02 Feb 2014 06:57 AM PST Hi, I've created and inserted bibliography in my report, it's working fine..can insert or delete, apply style and update. The problem is that at some places there are a number of refereneces in a row like (1,2,3,4,5,6). I want that in place of this list of numbers there should be a range like (1 - 6). Any body can help? Also that sometimes while clicking on inserted citations, a dialogue box rarely appears (not quite often, only twice in months) which gives a list of all of the citations inserted there to be edited and deleted. These three get normally and in third one with inactived remove citation link. How to make that drop box appear and to get activated remove citation link? |

Formula in Word Table - True if a Cell has a Tick (P) Posted: 02 Feb 2014 05:42 AM PST Hi, I have a Word Table which has 7 Columns x 16 Rows. In this layout... Row 1... Headings. Row 16... Totals (I would like to show here - Total Number of Ticks/Total Number of Rows {See Ps. for current codes}). Column 1... Day From. Column 2... Day To. Column 3... Month. Column 4... Image. Column 5... Title. Column 6... Got (Capital 'P', for Tick in 'Wingdings 2'). Column 7... Where I wish to put the formula, to do the following, if possible... If 'F2' = "P" then 1 else 0 The formula can be anything, just needs to Put '1' in Column 7 if Column 6 has a Tick or number of characters = 1 (Plus the End of Cell Ref) so that I can add them to see how many Rows has a 'Tick'. If this is possible, I will not need to see Column 7 at all, so if it can be hidden, that would be great, but how do I do it? Thanks, Neil Ps. (0/14) Code { =SUM(F2:F15) }/{ =COUNT(ABOVE)-1 } |
Can't save documents in Microsoft Office 2013 Posted: 02 Feb 2014 03:31 AM PST Hi everyone, I was given a brand new Dell laptop for my Christmas by my husband and for the past few weeks, I've been having an ongoing issue with my new Microsoft Office 2013. I am a teacher and I often mark essays electronically. In the older version of Word that I used, I could highlight and put comments into sections of text without it showing my name but with the new version of word, I can't seem to be able to do that - each comment shows my full name beside it which I don't really like to send out to pupils. I was trying to fix this by changing my username to Mrs ... in the options tab but that didn't seem to work either so I changed it back to what it was before. Since then, I haven't been able to save any documents - every time I try to save something it says that I need an administrator's permission. I am the administrator - I am the only user on this laptop. Curiously, if I save the file inside one of the folders in my C drive first (like the dell one for example), it lets me save to the desktop afterwards. This is irritating and time consuming though and I would really like to undo whatever I have done by messing around with the username. Could you tell me what I can do to fix this? I am not bothered about the name in the comments any more, I just want to be able to save things to my documents or the desktop without any hassle! I would appreciate any help you could give me. Many thanks, Kirsten |

Font display broken for Company Fonts in Word2013 (fine in Excel2013) Posted: 02 Feb 2014 01:57 AM PST Hello. I've got a new laptop running Windows 8.1. Our company has Office 365, and I'm running Enterprise E3, so have access to full copies of Office 2013 for download, which I've done, and installed on the machine. Our company has a number of standard fonts which I've installed on the machine. They are: The Sans Bold Caps The Sans Bold Italic The Sans Bold Plain The Sans Caps The Sans Italic The Sans Light Caps The Sans Light Italic The Sans Light Plain The Sans Plain Walbaum LT Bold Walbaum LT BoldItalic Walbaum LT Italic Walbaum LT Roman Walbaum RomanOsF Walbaum RomanSC These fonts appear fine in all Office applications, except for MS Word. In Word, the on-screen fonts appear jumbled. Below is a screenshot of a PDF file displaying the fonts correctly, and MS Word displaing the fonts incorrectly. If I print the file, the fonts print out ok, and if I save the file as a PDF, again the fonts appear fine. It is just the on-screen display of the fonts in editing mode. https://www.dropbox.com/s/m1hhcihpvi5jkvk/FontComparison.jpg I've tried some of the usual suggestions on here (checking ClearType Text is on, setting the default printer to XPS Writer etc). My Previous computer was Windows 7 with Office 2010, in which all fonts were shown correctly. As ALL of my work is done in Word using company fonts, its making life very difficult for me until I can find a fix. I can't even install Office 2010 as a workaround on this machine, as my licence from my old PC is OEM so won't transfer over. Thanks in advance for any help on this Chris |

Office runs into error and needs to be repaired every time I use it. Posted: 01 Feb 2014 07:45 PM PST Every time I open any Office program it says that it has run into an error that is preventing it from working correctly. It asks to repair it, and if I don't repair it, I can't use it and closes the program. I have "repaired" multiple times over the past two months and it continues to do this. Why is it doing this and how can I fix it permanently? |
Filling in multible chosen documents from one page. Posted: 01 Feb 2014 06:22 PM PST Hi I have several documents where the same data needs to go into different places across all the documents. However depending on what needs to be done depends on what documents are needed a that time. EG I could need document A B C D, next i could need A D E. So is there a way i can create a screen that chooses the documents i need before i start and then input the data across the chosen documents. If someone can help i'll email them a chocolate bar. |
A Save and Exit Problem in Word 2007 Posted: 01 Feb 2014 03:05 PM PST When I type additional new text into various parts of an existing large Word 2007 (doc.x) document, and then try to save it by hitting the usual "save" icon in the top left-hand corner, it begins the normal process as shown by the green indicator at the bottom of the screen. However, before the green indicator is completely filled, a pop-up screen appears showing the Documents Library page and it asks if I want to save the document. I answer: yes. When I then try to exit the document by hitting the usual "X" in the top right hand corner, I am asked again if I want to save the document. I have no choice but to say "yes." At this point, the program puts me into my title page, the first page of the document. When I try to exit from this, the process simply keeps repeating itself. My only recourse is to use Task Manager to exit the document. However, the next time I open the document, I find the new text has not been saved. It is important to note that, so far, the problem appears to be limited to this single document. |
