sharing only a calendar in Outlook using an Exchange Server

Posted: 15 Feb 2006 07:39 AM PST

Stuckagain <microsoft.com> typed: 

You ought to be able to share the calendar in the user's mailbox with at
least 'reviewer' rights to either individuals, or to groups (if you use
mail-enabled security groups, I believe you have to be in Exchange native
mode) - then those other users can use file |open | other user's folder, and
select the user's name/alias, and choose Calendar.

2ND REQUEST : How do I sent a meeting request like the KB asks:

Posted: 15 Feb 2006 06:51 AM PST

Sounds pretty straight forward. You send a meeting request from Outlook
Calendar to EVERYONE.
Then they have to accept it.
However I don't like this scenario as you now have to depend on every single
user to do it right.

Sounds like option number 2 is the better one. More work for you, but only
you can screw it up rather than a single user out of many.

HELP : Mail Delivery Failure!

Posted: 15 Feb 2006 06:45 AM PST

Confused by some of your statements....

"Added the MX record of the Exchange Server in the DNS of Exchange
Server" - why? Only needed in your public dns server so that external email
servers can send mail to you.

"Added the DNS IP to my Preferred DNS settings on my computer " - whose dns
server ip? This should be your internal dns server. Your internal dns
infrastructure should handle your internal/external host name resolution.

Within your mail accounts setup you would specify the smtp server to use.

You can send all outbound Internet mail out via another SMTP server as a
smarthost....

1. In Exchange System manager - find your routing groups section, create a
new connector, SMTP.
2. Name it something logical (ISP's SMTP Server, Forward to ISP as
Smarthost, etc) and choose forward all messages to the following smart host-
put in your ISP's smtp server there (e.g., smtp.myISP.com)
3. Under local bridgeheads, select your server.
4. In the Address Space tab, add an * (meaning, mail sent to all domains),
SMTP -

NB: Do not select "Allow messages to be relayed to those domains" or you'll
open yourself up to relay spam.

How are you entering the name of your Exchange server? FQDN or hostname?
How did you add the MX records? Do the MX records point to a fullly
qualified domain name? Does the FQDN from the MX record exist as an A
record in DNS?

What errors/warnings show up in your application log on the Exchange server?

I'd also asked, what version/SP level of Exchange, but it now seems clear
this isn't an Exchange issue, as you are using POP in the client. So this
isn't the best group for your question - I suggest you post in an Outlook
group, with more info - including your version of Outlook. Note that using
Internet mail and Exchange in the same Outlook profile is not supported in
versions of Outlook prior to 2002/2003 -

That said, I have to say that this sounds like a clumsy configuration and
will be very difficult to support/troubleshoot. Why are you not using
Exchange for *all* your mail?

I downloaded the Beta 2 on msdn.microsoft.com, english version.
When I run the beta 2 setup, the first alert is "The language of this

So, there was no option for selecting an email address :-(
I extracted the files from the ISO file to my harddisk. One thing I have to

I know that some people have Beta 2 running alongside Office 2003 but
there is always some risk involved. Of course, you won't be able to
run two versions of Outlook on one machine.

I haven't installed side by side yet, personally, but will probably do

Yes, I will follow original post. Having never used this service before, i

Is this suggestion somehow implicit in your statement? :
1. find msiexec.exe on the original Office2000 Cd (if possible),
2. copy it over the file of the same name now residing on c:\windows\system32

Is that what you are saying?

I wont go into the rights and wrongs, other than comment that PC suppliers
rarely explain the difference between OEM and retail software.
However there is nothing you can do without the cd.
Assuming you have other cd's that were supplied with your sys you might try
contacting Dell again and point out that as you have all the other cd's and
the office cd is the only one missing, its likely that this cd wasnt
supplied. In any case as your sys, you say, isnt that old I would have

Adding HTML tags to selected text

Posted: 15 Feb 2014 07:27 AM PST

So lately I've had to to a lot of text prep for publishing on website, which requires me to add the HTML tags (mostly just H1, H2 and P) to the text. I was wondering if it's possible to be able to select a text, and then keybind a command (I'm guessing i'd have to macro this, possibly script?) to add chosen HTML <tag></tag> to the selected text, at the start and end, respectively.

So, for example, i'd select a paragraph in Word, press Ctrl+Alt+P, and it the paragraph would have <p> </p> tags added.

If this is possible, i'd love to know how, as this would greatly speedup my work.

Office products - display freezing. Window resize refreshes it.

Posted: 15 Feb 2014 02:55 AM PST

System:
Windows 7
Microsoft office Professional 2013

I recently reinstalled Office after a reformat. Upon reinstall, all my office products have the same issue. Namely, when I change/add/delete content is makes 1 change and then the display will not show any further changes. The changes are definitely happening (I can resize text, move down the page, etc. but the display will not show the changes. Until, the window is resized. If I change the size of the window the display catches up immediately. But it will freeze again after the next change until the window is, again, resized. Very frustrating.
I have tested it in Word, Excel, PowerPoint and they all have the exact same issue. I assume it goes for all my Office products. I have posted this question in Word because it won't let me post if I don't choose a specific product, so my apologies.

I uninstalled and reinstalled in an attempt to fix it. No luck. Any help would be much appreciated.

We finally have what I thought was a correct setup but anytime we try to edit or view a word, excel, powerpoint document within SharePoint 2013, we receive "Sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document. If this happens again, try opening the document in Microsoft Word."

 

We found a few How-To Setup Office Web Apps sites where other people provided step-by step instructions:

http://blogs.technet.com/b/justin_gao/archive/2013/06/30/configuring-office-web-apps-server-communication-using-https.aspx

 

 

We reviewed the ULS logs and found the following error:

 

02/14/2014 13:38:40.24  w3wp.exe (0x1C04)                        0x1BB4 Office Web Apps                WAC Hosting Interaction        adhsk Unexpected WOPI CheckFile: Catch-All Failure [exception:Microsoft.Office.Web.Common.EnvironmentAdapters.UnexpectedErrorException: HttpRequest failed ---> Microsoft.Office.Web.Apps.Common.HttpRequestAsyncException: No Response in WebException ---> System.Net.WebException: The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel. ---> System.Security.Authentication.AuthenticationException: The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.     at System.Net.TlsStream.EndWrite(IAsyncResult asyncResult)     at System.Net.ConnectStream.WriteHeadersCallback(IAsyncResult ar)     --- End of inner exception stack trace ---     at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.EndGetResponse(IAsyncResult asyncResult)     at Microsoft.Office.Web.Apps.Common.Ht... 7bed0d51-511d-4541-a059-e2f72942e617

 

 

 

None of the article provide specific step-by-step instructions with using HTTPS in a test environment specifically when it comes to Self-Signed Certs through Active Directory Certificate Services.

 

We tried creating a Self-Signed Cert through IIS on the Office Web Apps Box which did not work.

We tried creating a Cert through Active Directory Certificate Services which did not work.

We tried adding the Cert through Central Admin > Security > Manage Trust which did not help.

We verified "get-spwopizone" is set to internal-https

We can access the Web Apps https://test022/hosting/discovery site and view the XML with no issue on any machine on our network.

We added our domain to the list of approved domains that can use Office Web Apps as well as add "Domain Users" as the security group that can "EDIT" Office Documents through Office Web Apps.

 

After each step, we tried performing either a system reboot or IIS Reset on the Office Web Appcs and WFE box.

 

My Question is how do we generate a certificate (either self-signed through IIS on the Office Web Apps Box or through AD) that will allow this application to work? I read that the Fully Qualified Domain Name needs to be in the SAN field of the Cert but when we request it, I have no way of entering this information. I tried following http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff625722 to manually request a certificate with a Custom SAN but that did not work either.

 

I am assuming the certificate issue is with the New Office Web Apps box. Is this correct?

Heading 1 style and chapter number

Posted: 14 Feb 2014 10:48 AM PST

I have connected the Heading 1 style to the Chapter number; so I have "Chapter 1 Getting Started".

But I would prefer the word "Topic" that than "Chapter" in each heading. Can I do this?

Many thanks

How to get pinyin to appear above Chinese characters

Posted: 14 Feb 2014 10:12 AM PST

I am tired of this, I've upgraded to a worse version of office when I went to 2013 version.  It's not showing me any of the 2010 options for typing hanyu pinyin. I can write Chinese but not have automatic pinyin appear in the phonetic guide to display above the character.  I've run out of ideas to make it easier short of what I am doing is cutting and pasting characters sets from old 2010 files.  I need pinyin to appear above the characters, it was already difficult in 2010, because I had to loo up a fix.  Why did they do that? I would think there would be a huge market for the pinyin as that is the UN standard for mandarin Chinese.  And most know pinyin now overseas.  Are there fonts with ruby text in hanyu pinyin for windows 8.1 yet.  Is so frustrating. Can anyone suggest anything? I know pinyin joe is working on it but.. any fixes please?

Microsoft Word Picture/Image Printing problem

Posted: 14 Feb 2014 07:23 AM PST

I created a user manual for my business by pasting print screen shots from my website into a word document.  I think added text and text boxes.  The document looks great in print preview by when i send to my HP8600 printer the formatting is all off around the pasted pictures.  I tried saving as a pdf and the same thing happens when i print the pdf.  When i give the file to my partner - she is able to print it fine from her MS word 2013 program to the same HP8600 printer.  Do i have a setting wrong in my word program that is causing the pictures to format differently?  

Word template with embedded Excel sheet

Posted: 14 Feb 2014 04:39 AM PST

Hi 

I have a Word template that we use for invoices that has an embedded spreadsheet.
I would like to show the gridlines for user, purely as a guideline, but don't want the gridlines printed.

When in Word, View, I have ticked Gridlines (under Show/Hide)
When I double click on the embedded Excel, under Page Layout, the Gridlines to View are ticked, too, but the Gridllines to Print are shaded, i.e. can't change them.

When I print to PDF from here, the gridlines shown in the screen (which is what I want) ARE printed to PDF.

Can anyone help me rectifying this, please?

Modify Text Styling of X axis labels in Chart.

Posted: 14 Feb 2014 04:00 AM PST

I just want to make the last X axes category label BOLD (always) as shown here :


I have done this here by adding a Text Box but this is not the solution to what I want, as my chart would be plotted dynamically (including no. of categories, series etc.) through word interop services, so is there a tweak/workaround to achieve this.

word was unable to write some of the embedded objects due to insufficient memory

windows 2003 saving documents

Posted: 14 Feb 2014 02:20 AM PST

I have a large word document and only want to save certain pages. When I click save it saves whole document. Is there anyway to save JUST specific pages from this document ?

Vanishing text

Most of the text in a Word document is not visible in Edit view, though the word count is correct. In Read view, however, the text is visible. How do I fix this?

Adjusting Author / File Properties in Word 365

Posted: 13 Feb 2014 10:43 PM PST

I have Microsoft Office Home Premium 365 installed on my machine.  Originally, I used a more anonymous email address to set up the account (my personal email) but now want the documents to display my formal email address (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***...).  I have removed every other alias or instance of the prior email address from the account settings wherever I could find them, but still the old one appears when I log in to word.  I just wasted 40 minutes on a call with the live support person, who had me uninstall and re-install all of MS Office 365, only for that to do nothing and him to tell me that it's unchangeable.

Word must be pulling that email address from somewhere, perhaps the initial installation.  One would think you could update an email address in 2014 without it tripping up the whole design of a cloud-based system.  

Anyone know an easier way to fix this than to cancel my MSO365 account, make a new one, and order it using the other email address...which seems an absurd amount of effort for such a minor change?

Thanks,
AA

Creating Option buttons in Word 2013

Posted: 13 Feb 2014 09:07 PM PST

I'm trying to create a form with option buttons. In the previous versions 2003-2010, I go to the Developer tab > Legacy Tools and choose the options button. But it is now missing in 2013. There is only one under Active X control but it works differently and isn't it for forms to be uploaded onto the internet?

Autocorrect entries are not saved when Word 2013 closed and reopened

Posted: 13 Feb 2014 08:44 PM PST

Work as transcriptionist and use autocorrect entries often.  Work fine for a couple weeks and then all of a sudden stopped saving entries when I closed Word program.   If I move from one document to another without closing, they stay there, but as soon as I close program and reopen, they are gone.  New computer,, haven't installed any new programs.  Any suggestions?  

Where are the office templates that I have used for years? my solution - not Microsofts.

Posted: 13 Feb 2014 05:15 PM PST

I used Office 2003 until last year, when I bought a copy of office 2010. When it installed, all my office templates were lost. It turned out to be a wrongly licensed copy, so I bought a correctly licensed copy of Office 2013 from Staples and downloaded the program. Now I have no templates. So I looked on line and found a fixit tool in the Office 2013 help section. Only trouble is it does not fix it. Says it will not work with Office 2013.


The manual method described in the help file seems to have no relevance to the required feature, as it describes a "Default custom template box" that does not exist. So I did a search for  *.dot, only to find about 600 .dotx files containing Microsft templates that I never use.
I then tried the manual method. I'll fix it myself
  1. Click Start > Run, and then type %appdata%\Microsoft\Templates\ in the Open box.
  2. Copy the address in the File Explorer address bar.
  3. Click File > Options > Save, and then paste the address into the Default personal templates location box.

Unfortunately there is no address bar in the explorer of windows 7, just a series of folder names with drop down arrows under them. No file or options or save button. Who writes these so called help files. Not a user to be sure.


So I copied the files by selecting them by opening them one at a time and saving them to a folder:called C/users/howard/mydocuments/custom office templates/. They still work. Since 1982 I have always saved my documents in a folder at the top of the C tree. C/aaadocs. That way I can find them. Why do they have to make things so dificult with a filing system that never puts things where I want them to be put.
Sorry about the rant, but its taken me about two hours to get here.
Have a good day.

Office 365 still streaming after hours

Posted: 13 Feb 2014 04:50 PM PST

I have Office 365 home premium. It. has been installed on this laptop for 6 months. Word and powerpoint stopped working in the middle of projects. I have been through all of the recommendations and now I have new problems.  I did the repair. Didn't help. I went into safe mode and there were no add ons.  Did the "fix it" recommendation and then the programs wouldn't even open. Then I did the uninstall and reinstall.  I can open the programs but there is a box in the right hand corner that says office is still streaming.  It has been doing this for hours.  My internet connection is fast so I don't know what to do now.  The other similar posts give me no new information.   I'm really tired of uninstalling and reinstalling.  I have work to do.
