Bullet Numbering & Capitalisation

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 02:15 PM PDT

Hi Guys,

I've created a bullet list in word and the program highlights the first word to be capitalized.

How can  I stop Word, from doing that? i don't want to select "Ignore Once" to get rid of it because it just shows up again. I want a permanent fix please.

Thanks in advance.

Word Saddle Stitch How to add Page Numbers

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 02:14 PM PDT

I'm using Work 2010.  I'm saddle stitching.  I finally got it to add page numbers, but not the way I want it.

I don't want page numbers on the front page and I want it to start at page 1 on page 2.  Or maybe even just skip page numbers on the Cover Sheet.

I can't open older Word docs in 2013, the kind that are "fill in the form" files.

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 11:29 AM PDT

I have a new computer with Windows 8.1 and Word 13. I work for a company that has forms that I have to use that are fill in forms. They are older, and they open, but typing in them is a nightmare and it takes the letters in half/time speed. Any suggestions?

2013 Normal.dotm Problems: After saving a macro autotext will not save to normal.dotm

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 11:22 AM PDT

Question I: Is there a way to save my macros in a different location than my quick parts autotexts. Currently they both save in Normal.dotm but when I save a macro on normal.dotm it won't let me add any new autotexts. I have tried saving autotexts as buildingblocks.dotx but then it will just save as a quickpart, and won't come up when I type the autotext name like my other autotexts.

Question II: Is there any other way to stop my Normal.dotm from corrupting so I can save autotexts and macros together?

Further Explanation

I am having issues with my Normal.dotm for Office 2013. I noticed it wasn't saving any of my new auto texts, so I figured my dotm was corrupted and changed the file to Normal.old.

A New Normal.dotm was created, and I added a bunch of quick parts. It saved them fine, until I input my macro. Since I saved my macro, it won't update any of my autotexts. When I restart office none of the autotexts are there, and when I look at the file in my templates folder, it will show the modified date from the last time I made a macro. It will update when I make a new macro.

My only macro

Sub TimeStamp()
Selection.InsertDateTime _
      DateTimeFormat:="MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm" & _
      " - ", InsertAsField:=False
End Sub

I can obviously start a new normal.dotm and put in all my current autotexts AGAIN before I input my macro - but then I am just going to have to do the same thing when I need to make a new autotext.

Annoying word windows

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 10:54 AM PDT

I am working on multiple word documents. I minimize all of them, and then when I maximize the one I want, all the others open behind it as well. I'm sure (well I think I'm sure) this is a default setting, but then to get back to my desktop I have to minimize all of the one at a time again. This also happens with excel. I can't figure out how to change this so only the window I want pops up! Thanks.

Adding text to a TOC changes the formatting of the text

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 10:20 AM PDT

I am using MS Word 2007. I want to add some text to the Table of Contents. When I go to the reference|table of contents|add text section and add the text I am asked which of 3 levels I want it to be within the table of contents.

When I answer that question the text that I have seected to be added to the TOC has its formatting changed.

I just want to add the text to the table of contents. I don't want any of the formatting in the rest of the document altered when I do this. Is there a setting I can adjust to stop this unwanted behaviour?

Corrupted files

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 10:12 AM PDT

There are two ways that I experience corrupted files.

1.  Files that are saved on my hard drive as a word or excel file, state they are corrupted when I try to open them up.

2.  I use yahoo.  If someone sends me a document, and I download it, then I press open to see what it says, it automatically states that its corrupted.

Now, this does not happen will all of my saved files on my hard drive or will all files I download from my yahoo account, but it happens consistently and then I need to hop on another computer.

I use a desktop.  Help...

Word 2010 macros keyboard shortcut not working

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 09:51 AM PDT

Hello, just wanted to see if someone could please advice. We have been using a letter document at work for many years using macros. See below.

We have a letter that goes out to different staff members with their name department etc. We have a list of 20 departments on another word document in a list format. I created a macro where by I copy first dept(in this case architecture) from the list and paste into the letter and give it a keyboard shortcut say Alt+1 under macro 1. I do the same for next dept (biology) from list, and give it alt+2 under macro2.

Now, when I run the shortcut alt+1 I get biology and alt+2 biology shows up again.  it seems architecture not showing. the macros worked fine before. :(

Format Consistency

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 09:30 AM PDT

I am using word 2010 & sometimes when I am working on documents, font size consistency will be off slightly (i.e. Arial 8 vs. Arial 8.5).  My eyes when reviewing a printout can catch, but they can miss other items.  Does word have a feature, which can help to catch those subtle differences?

Saving to and opening documents from SharePoint 2013

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 09:28 AM PDT

I was hoping that Office 2010 would work nicely together in terms of saving to and opening documents from SharePoint 2013. Alas, I was disappointed and somewhat surprised to see that opening/saving documents in SharePoint from within Office still involves copying, pasting and hacking the URL of the document library in the Save or Open dialogue box. I was fully expecting that Office 2010 would have display some sort of SharePoint navigation so you could view your sites and document libraries in a similar way to folders. A mature document management system this ain't!

Anyone have any advice on how to improve the Open/Save to/from SharePoint experience in Office 2010? I'm open to the idea of Office add-ins whether third party or official Microsoft.

Cannot edit text form fields after merge

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 08:46 AM PDT

Hi

I've got a strange problem where I need to insert a cover sheet into an existing document. The cover sheet contains text form fields that allow for electronic archiving and searching of the main document, and was originally saved in Word 1997 - 2003 format. It saves in Word 2013 format and works just fine. When I use

Insert, Object, Text from file

to put this into the main document however the form fields then become un-editable and just disappear when I try to put text into them.

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks

Paul.

Microsoft Word Spelling and Grammar Check

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 08:37 AM PDT

You know what would be a really helpful feature for Microsoft Word?  If Spelling/Grammar errors as flagged by the checkers were inserted into the document as comments.  As a teacher, this would supplement my own commenting on student papers, and actually accellerate the grading process.  Perhaps a macro of some sort could address this question. 

MS WORD 2003 FORMS LINKED TO EXCEL 2003

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 08:16 AM PDT

I have managed to create a Word form that pushes data into an excel spreadsheet. 

However I now want to be greedy and assign a Unique Serial number to the form that will increment each time a user uses the form.

The purpose of the form is for Users to request data to be transferred between systems (a task only administrators are permitted to do).

The user would use the form, stored on a server share, and submit it to the admin team requesting this task.

The form once completed by the user updates the spreadheet which acts as a 'LOG' of the requests.

A unique serial number would be useful for the admin team to track each request.

Is it possible for a unique serial number to be generated in a word form that can be pushed to excel with the requested job and then increments the next time it is used?

Any advice greatfully appreciated.

Outlook template date auto update next to the Next Friday's date

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 08:06 AM PDT

I have a email that I send to my clients when I move them from Advance support to General support. I send this template email out on Mondays for that Friday to be the last day of my time with them. I am looking for a way to auto update to the next Friday based on today's date. So if I sent one today 3/25/2014, it would be like this Friday March 28, 2014 in the body of the text. I have tried a few things with excel and import but its doesnt seem to update. I am fairly new to the macros and VBA I can get it to work in excel but not sure how to get that to work in Outlook if I can at all. Thank you for your time and help with this.

Find/Replace of Paragraph marks doesn't work when pasting from Notepad, but does when from here

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 08:02 AM PDT

I have a text file consisting of data I exported from a PDF document. It is only a text file. In Notepad, it doesn't show any line breaks, but in Textpad is does. I pasted it from Notepad or Textpad into Word and it shows a number of line breaks. When I view formatting character, I can see the paragraph marks at the end of each line. I did a Fine/Replace to change these Paragraph Marks to spaces. However, only a few change, not all of them. I've tried using Line Breaks or Paragraph characters, but they are not being recognized. Then I tried copying that text here, in this box to show a sample. Then I copied back to Word. Then my Find/Replace with paragraph marks worked fine. What's the issue here? Why are the Paragraph marks not being recognized in Find/Replace when pasting from Notepad or Textpad, but recognized from here, and what can I do?

why does word 2010 not save a version of a file you forgot to save?

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 05:18 AM PDT

According to all the blurb, if you have "Keep last autosave version if you close without saving" checked, you should be able to restore the file, but it doesn't work - there is no such file stored where autosave is set to store them or anywhere else as far as I can see. There is also nothing in Info/Versions/ Recover Unsaved documents. I have doe a Repair, with no improvement. Any ideas?

In passing, is there no option in Win 8.1 to search for files created, for example, today?.

MS Word - Interesting Heading Problem

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 03:03 AM PDT

I have an interesting question for the MS word experts.

Presently, I am having 2 headings.

Heading 1 and Heading 2

In heading 2 style I am using, page break before option. So you know, all the heading 2 will start from a new page.

 However, I want the first instance of Heading 2 (that is coming under Heading 1) to be int he same page, all other instance in the new page.

Any possibilities?

Changing default PDF Viewer

Posted: 25 Mar 2014 02:53 AM PDT

When I save a document as a PDF using the export option, it always opens up the pdf using the Word Online viewer. This wasn't originally the case. How do I change it so that it by default opens up in my system viewer like Foxit or Adobe Reader instead?

(updates)

When I open the pdf from Explorer, the pdfs open in my default viewer. This only seems to occur if I view the pdf immediately upon exporting a PDF using the PDF creator. If I print the PDF using a PDF converter, the problem doesn't arise.

Cheers,

EDIT: Solved. It seems like this article is quite misleading http://support.microsoft.com/kb/284956/en-au

The blue wavy line DOES NOT indicate that the Format Consistency Checker is active.

It indicates that capitalisation is the issue.

Hi, we bought Outlook and Word 2013 last October and it has been working fine.  (Order Number 11778001541)

Today, my Word 2013 seems to have been deleted, although Outlook is working no problems and we cannot find it anywhere.

Does anyone have any idea where it may be?  We have followed the different instructions for reinstating it.  I don't think we can reinstall it as it was bought online and we have no physical disk.

Please help as I need this for work and am very worried that I have lost all my files - no, I didn't back them up on hard drive.

Cannot go offline with SFO, any suggestions?

Posted: 22 Nov 2004 12:17 PM PST

Hey Brent,

I reviewed www.c360.com, your right that was really great information. The
user I was logged into the box as in fact was a member of the local admins
And domain admin And also a CRM user. I looked into the Domain users thing
and I have added this group to the sql logins and granted access to the CRM
and Meta DBs but no success. The install auto creates a SQLAccessGroup which
all my CRM users are a member of.. I think this takes care of DBs access, I
think.. I changed the interactive logon in the Local Securtiy Policy to cache
0 logins (o meaning None). I dont know whats going on.. it seems like I have
gone through everything.. I have read many newsgroups with this error and I
thought my issue was a known issue, but I think it is just a bug in the
install.. I was hoping not to have to re-install (the server is live
production DC, DNS, SQL, Exchange, and Everything else). I am real close in
reading up on backing up the databases (cause IE connects just fine) and
reinstalling the CRM implementation. Dont know if I will arrive in the same
place with completely removing the system.. read some nightmares about that..
I am hoping someone reaches out and helps me thru all this..

Will the following issues be addressed in CRM 2.0?

- CRM Mail Router compatibility with an Exchange 2003 cluster. We are going
to deploy a Microsoft Exchange 2003 cluster in a couple weeks and my
understanding is that the crm mail router isn't compatible with a clustered
Exchange environment. 


- The need for the GUID in the subject line. Not only does the GUID look
unprofessional but we are afraid that some of our emails are being filtered
by spam filtering software on the mail servers of our customers. 

- Duplicate email activity records. Everytime a user creates an email
activity that includes the email address of another CRM user CRM creates a
duplicate record. This behavior is unsatisfactory. 

- CRM for Outlook doesn't allow you to go offline after you have
disconnected from the network. Sometimes our sales staff leave themselves
online in CRM for Outlook but disconnect from the network. If this happens
there should be no reason why they cannot go offline. I understand that they
would not be able to syncronize with CRM if they are not connected to the
network but that should still have the ability to work with their local copy
of CRM even if it is out of date. 

- Security Role permission inheritance. When making changes to a security
role often times the changes don't filter through to all of the business
units which means I have to go through all of the business units to make sure
the changes have filtered down and if not then I have to make the changes for
those business units. This is not a huge deal but since it was designed to
allow you to make at the partent business unit it should work. 

Well that's my rant. Does anyone else have comments on these?

US to UK CRM link

Posted: 22 Nov 2004 01:25 AM PST

You will find that with SBS your options are a little limited as you will not be
able to setup remote connectivety between the sites that takes advantage of a
trust between the Domains.

If they truly need the sites to "integrate", that could take some effort and
cost. Especialyl since to replicate users between the 2 installs would require
double licenses. Otherwise, you lose ownership information on the objects.

There just aren't any "good" solutions to this at this point with CRM 1.x.

How do you import Outlook Contacts into CRM Contacts?

Posted: 19 Nov 2004 12:43 PM PST

If you already have them in Outlook, you can mograte them into CRM using the SFO
client directly from Outlook. Biggest drawback to this approach though is that
it will not populate Accounts.

Tim,
Just update the first 5 numbers of the zip code in to the New field.
As long as you does not wnat the Zip+4 to be included in your search, this
works. Anb by the by i guess no one will try to search giving the Zip+4 in
the search. So in the Workflw make sure that you remove the what ever is is

Convert Works Database into Excel

Posted: 30 Sep 2008 05:29 PM PDT

It should. As I recall, Works Suite 200 is Works version 5. If the
install gives you an option, just install the Works and not the Suite
add-ons. You probably already have a newer version of MS Word.

Consultation about a formula for works...

Posted: 29 Sep 2008 03:55 PM PDT

From Works help:

Click the data entry values such as text or numbers in cells you want to
repeat.
With the mouse pointer, point to the lower-right corner of the cell (the
intersection of a row and column that can contain text or numbers that
contains the entry).
When the pointer looks like a plus, drag down the rows to select more cells.
When you release the mouse button, Works repeats the text in the selected
cells.

Tip

You can also repeat text by clicking a data entry, and then dragging down
the rows where you want the data entry to appear. On the Edit menu, click
Fill Down.

using Works Database

Posted: 27 Sep 2008 07:31 PM PDT

Hi Raymond,

Works database report limits the use of functions as you encountered.

The formula has to be entered into List view - a field that will hold the 'markings'
i.e. asterisk etc. This then becomes the value displayed in the report as indicator.

You may wish to use a new record line to print the asterisk etc. above the actual
score achieved per hole.

HTH,

Where is Works Calendar file saved to?

Posted: 25 Sep 2008 10:08 PM PDT

mswkscal.wcd is where Works calendar data is stored.

Works calendar reads the gibberish you see in the mswkscal.wcd file.

If you are in doubt whether the calendar is displaying what is in the
mswkscal.wcd file, tempory move mswkscal.wcd out of it's existing folder,
open calendar, it should display an error message. If it doesn't, then the
file you moved is not the one Works calendar is reading.

Hope this helps,
Ken

Finding the correct formula for this explanation

Posted: 21 Sep 2008 02:34 PM PDT

MR FORMULAS,
For a single item X quantity use the following:

A1= Item Name
B2= Quantity
C2= Per Unit Price
D2= Fee Charge
E2= The following formula, then drag the fomula down the length of the
column.

=IF($B2="","",IF(($B2*$C2*$D2)<1.01,1,IF(($B2*$C2* $D2)>60.01,60,($B2*$C2*$D2))))

Or you can just add the Fee Charge Percentage in the formula, like this, in
your fee column.

=IF($B2="","",IF(($B2*$C2*0.01)<1.01,1,IF(($B2*$C2 *0.01)>60.01,60,($B2*$C2*0.01))))

If it is multiple items to the same receipient, then you will need to get
the total of the order, before applying the following.

If you designate E10 as the cell that your total in E11 place the following
formula:
=IF(($E10*0.01)>60.01,60,IF(($E10*0.01)<1.01,1,($E 10*0.01)))

Or if you place the percentage for the fee in a cell, use the cell address
to multiply with the total.

When a user clicks on an option button, instead of selecting it, the VBA window opens

Posted: 24 Mar 2014 02:12 PM PDT

Perhaps this is a cautionary tale about working at the edge of one's knowledge.

I'm not a developer but I know enough to be dangerous.

I use Word 2010 and my client's company (I just learned) is still using Word 2007.  I recently created a form template for them--a dotm file. The form initially used drop down lists but they changed their minds and I used option buttons instead. All along my client has been opening the dotm file and looking it over as I progressed through creating the form.

Now that I delivered what was supposed to be the final version she, for the first time, double-clicked on the file on her desktop to create a new document based on the template. When she clicks on an option button the button is not selected. Instead the VBA window opens. What did I do wrong? The buttons aren't properly grouped (because I did a lot of copy and pasting and forgot about grouping them correctly)--I can easily fix that.  But I can't see how that would be an issue. (Famous last words, I know.)

I'm fixing the grouping now but does anyone have any ideas on why the VBA window is popping up when my client double clicks on the template?

Incorrect Formats with Word Documents Accessed on iPad with OneDrive (SkyDrive)

Mail Merge from Excel - when I WANT a leading space

Posted: 24 Mar 2014 01:40 PM PDT

I've found quite a bit on how to get rid of leading and trailing spaces in Mail Merge - but I want to keep them in, and Word just won't let me!  

If a field is blank in a record, I want nothing in the document, but when fields are not blank I need their contents separated by spaces.  Making everything conditional ("{IF {x}="" "" " {x}"}") takes forever to code, and my master docs start to freeze and crash when they have too many complicated fields.

So I thought I'd be really clever and put the leading spaces in each field of my Excel data source, so the space would come in attached to the merged data and my merge code could be simplified.  Apparently this works with merges to MS Publisher, http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher-help/common-mail-merge-issues-HA010253730.aspx.  Unfortunately, when I merge to Word, Word automatically trims off all the spaces and smooshes the words together!  Ugh.

Tried using non-breaking spaces instead of "regular" ones - no joy.

When fields contain numbers, apparently it's possible to format in a way that includes a leading space - but this is all text.  

As it stands, I'm stuck with either (1) lots and lots of tedious IFs that eventually choke the software, or (2) maybe using some other leading character - something not in my data, like maybe an underscore or something - and then Replacing All of them with a space in the merged output.  Is there possibly a more elegant solution?

Addins Won't AutoOpen - Word 2010

I have a .docm file, which I've added to the "Templates and Add-ins" dialog (from a "Trusted Location"), then checked the checkbox next to it.  I assumed, like in Excel, that this would force Word to open this addin automatically upon launching Word.  This setting is NOT saved when Word is closed.  When I restart Word and re-open this dialog, my addin name is shown, but the checkbox is UNCHECKED.

I've also tried copying the .docm to the C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP folder, expecting it to be opened upon launch, however this doesn't work either. 

Ideas?

Word 2013 Shape Positioning

Printed labels don't align correctly.

Posted: 24 Mar 2014 09:31 AM PDT

I'm using MS Office 2007 on a machine running on MS XP.  I have been trying to print a sheet of labels, each of which has the same text as all the others.  The labels are in sheets of 65 (i.e. 5 columns of 13 labels each).

I found and downloaded (from Microsoft.com) a "wizard" or template which appeared to suit my requirements perfectly.  It was tailored to my labels which are sheets of DECAdry OLW-4730 65 x (38.1 x 21.2 mm).  All the dimensions matched perfectly, with left, right, upper and lower margins the same; the size of the labels the same; the width of the small column of "dead-space" between each column the same; even the size of the backing sheet was exactly the same as a sheet of A4.

Having completed the template, I tried printing the end result.  Hopeless......

-   the size of the text font was smaller than intended or expected;

-   the text 'blocks' were too close together both horizontally and vertically;

-   the left-hand column was too far from the left edge, and the right-hand column too far from the right edge;

-   the text over-lapped each label vertically and horizontally, to the extent that the bottom row of labels was completely blank and most rows above that

    were totally useless.

Since then, I have tried recreating the sheet of labels in Excel, but have only achieved the same result.

Can anyone tell me where I have gone wrong ?

Many thanks.

How do I save a mail merge letter?

I created a mail merge for a letter and saved it.  When I open the document, I have only the first letter available to me, not the entire group of letters that I thought I saved in the mail merge.  Similarly, I did the same for mail merge labels, and when I open that, I have only the first page of labels.  How do I get back to the full set of letters or labels so that I can print them out now?

Word prompting to save document that new document is based on.

Posted: 24 Mar 2014 04:00 AM PDT

I am having an issue that is bugging the life out of me.

We use a document that acts as a base for all our documentation standards call it "documentation1.docx"

(its a template but saved as a DOCX because its a living template and changes frequently, DOCTM is not suitable in this instance)

when I open this base document a make a pile of changes and do a Save as to another name (customer1.docx) and location everything is fine. A new "customer1.doctx" file is created and no changes are made to "documentation1.docx"

When I subsequently open "Customer1.docx" to make updates to it and save it it updates "Customer1.docx" no problem.  

My annoying issue arises when I close "Customer1.docx" I get a prompt asking me if I want to make changes to "documentation1.docx" even though I have not opened or interacted with "documentation1.docx" in days. I have to click Dont Save to get the window to close


why is this happening?

Tidying up styles in Word 2010

Posted: 24 Mar 2014 01:01 AM PDT

I've been working on a 200-page document, a lot of which is put together by cutting and pasting from a wide variety of sources. In term sof styles it was complete chaos and I wanted to bring order. I copied the whole into a new document based on my own template with a very limited number of styles and then went through re-formating by clearing all styles and then applying the styles I wanted. But the document still seemed to be full of all sorts of styles. Many of these listed in the Styles pane turned out not to be in use, and so I could simply delete them. But this could be done only style by style, one at a time, and so was a very slow and time-consuming processs. So my first question, to which I haven't been able to find a clear answer in anything I've read on styles, is whether it is possible to do a bulk delete of all custom styles listed but not actually in use in the document in consideration.

Secondly, where an in-use style is used a significant number of times I want to use Find & Replace to change it to the style I want. I find this generally works well, but have come up against one particular problem. To be able to find and replace, you have to be able to select the first style from the massively long drop-down list appearing in a very small panel in the Find & Replace box. What do you do if the style you want to find just is not there, as there is no facility for entering a name by hand?

And finally, I seem to be left with a number of styles that have apparently just one instance of use. They will not delete, but selecting the supposed instance brings no result and it cannot be found through Find & Replace. If I try and modify it by adding some outrageous characteristic so it should stick out in the text like a sore thumb, I still can't find where it is. How can I get rid of these single-instance styles that apparetnly cannot be found and changed? I'd like to end up with a manageable list of styles in use that I can overview without scrolling all the time.

(It's probably very obvious to the specialists that although I've been a Word user for a couple of decades I am still not comfortable at all with styles. I thought I'd mastered them at the start of this century, but then got totally lost again when Microsoft changed everything, in that I found what used to be a very simple way of working turned into something very complicated and generally very much slower than applying manual formating. I have tried searching to get clear answers to my questions, but have not come up with anything that has worked.)

Multilevel Numbering for Numerous Appendices

Posted: 23 Mar 2014 11:55 PM PDT

Can someone please point me in the right direction; I'm sure this particular situation must have been dealt with before.

I use multilevel numbering in my document associated with styles, i.e. 1.0 Heading 1; 1.1 Heading 2; 1.1.1 Heading 3; etc.

I have also created a style for autonumbering appendix headings, e.g. APPENDIX 1 etc. For this purpose I have created a style 'Appendix Head'. The prefix 'APPENDIX' is part of the the style, in other words, I select an empty paragraph and apply the style 'Appendix Head', and the result is e.g. APPENDIX 1 for the first appendix. Is this a standard method for numbering appendices or should one rather use the 'SEQ' field for this purpose?

I now would like to autonumber the headings in the appendices to look similar (in format) to the regular document headings, although they need to be independently numbered of the document heading numbers, and include the prefix 'A-#' where 'A' denotes Appendix, and '#' denotes the appendix autonumber, for example Heading 1 of Appendix 1 should be 'A1-1', Heading 2 of Appendix 1 should be 'A1-1.1', etc. Likewise, Heading 1 of Appendix 2 should be 'A2-1', Heading 2 of Appendix 2 should be 'A2-1.1, etc.

To summarise, the document structure should look something like:

DOCUMENT

1.0 Heading 1

1.1 Heading 2

1.1.1 Heading 3

2.0 Heading 1

2.1 Heading 2

2.1.1 Heading 3

etc

APPENDIX 1

A1-1 Heading 1

A1-1.1 Heading 2

A1-1.1.1 Heading 3

etc

APPENDIX 2

A2-1 Heading 1

A2-1.1 Heading 2

A2-1.1.1 Heading 3

etc

I have lost all the toolbar names and cannot open a new file or open files within office. I can't seem t find tools/options to reset the defaults and this copy of offie was installed by dell onto the pc at purchase, so I don't really know how to re-install if I don't have hard copies. I include a screen dump of the problem,

Add expand/collapse headings to older Word document opening in Word 2013

Posted: 23 Mar 2014 09:07 PM PDT

My client has a 20 page Word document created in Word 2007. They are looking to upgrade to Word 2013, which I have installed on my computer.

I've opened their document in Word 2013 and saved it as the new .docx format, but I don't see the expand/collapse arrows or options in the Headings.

They have used Heading styles and Heading 2 is showing as Level 2 in Outline view (though it's not indented - should it be?).

Has anyone else tried opening an older document in Word 2013 and can successfully see the expand/collapse options? Do I have to do something with the Heading styles to update them, if possible? I really don't want to have to recreate 20 pages from scratch if I can help it.

Regards,

Sonia. 

 

Round Up in Word 2010 via VBA

Posted: 23 Mar 2014 08:21 PM PDT

Hi

I have a document that I store raffle numbers for a short time.

I would like to know how many raffle books I need, I know that each book has 50 tickets in it, so I need to divide the total number needed by 50, but say I have 51 tickets, I will need 2 books.

How can I get Word 2010 VBA to round up to the nearest 50, so that if the answer to my question is...

     Between 1 and 50, I will be told that I need 1 book.

     Between 51 and 100, I will be told that I need 2 books.

     Between 101 and 150, I will be told that I need 3 books.

     etc.

Here is that part of the code I currently have:

     BlockSets = Round(Tickets / 50) 'Tickets = Raffle Ticket

Thank you in advance,

Neil

lost work by closing unsaved document

Posted: 23 Mar 2014 07:14 PM PDT

I worked all day to fill out an inspection report for my work. I went to close the document and mistakenly hit the "NO" to save the changes made to the document. I opened the document and none of the work was there. Is there a way to recover the work that was completed when I closed the document at 6:20PM

Character that doesn't start a new word?

Posted: 23 Mar 2014 04:13 PM PDT

Hi,

Is there a character that can be used to give the appearance of a space, dash, underscore or similar, but that Word (2013) will not consider as the end/start of a word?

For example, I would like text to appear like this:       FIRST SECOND

but I would like to be able to double-click on one "word" and for both to be selected.

It appears that Word treats any character other than a-z, A-z and 0-9 as a delimiter for a word, even non-breaking hyphens. 

Is there any character other than a-z, A-Z and 0-9 that Word does NOT treat as a new word delimiter?

Cheers
Rich

PS. Normally I would use lower-case and capitalise the first letter of each word an not use any spaces, but now I need to use a style which has All Caps on!

Something went wrong and we couldn't start your program - Windows 8.1 and Office Professional Plus 2013 - HUP

Posted: 23 Mar 2014 03:24 PM PDT

Everything for Windows 8.1 and Office Professional Plus 2013 was working fine until today - and when I went to open Word, I received the "Something went wrong and we couldn't start your program".   I went to the control panel as recommended, but there is no repair option for as suggested by the error message.  I've tried restarting the program, and rebooting the computer, but to no avail.  How can I fix this problem?

Thanks,
