oy!
I tried that too. I changed the row height and made the column smaller so
the text wraps. It looks great on the screen, but still puts the text at the
very top of the cell in the preview and in the printout. I'm giving up!

BCWS is based on the status date. If you have any actual work after this
date then the two will not match. This is the most common cause for the two
to be different (well, other than the progress actually matching the plan)

rjn,
Try Rod's suggestion first but if you aren't able to get any help from
Microsoft, you can buy many different versions of Project on one of the
on-line auctions. A couple of years ago I bought Project 2000 (full
version) on eBay for $100. So if you are "forced" to buy a new disk you
might also consider upgrading to a newer version. If you do upgrade to
Project 2000 make sure what you buy is the full version and includes the
SR-1 update.

Hope this helps.

Schedule Variance - getting a wierd value

Posted: 19 Apr 2005 02:17 PM PDT

Hi Dick
To get results in EV fields the schedule should be:
- resourced,
- costed (hourly or daily rate agaist resources in Resource Sheet view)
- baselined
Then insert eg. columns for SPI and CPI, and progress the schedule.

Hi Elena,

You could set the Max Units for each resource to a value higher than their
highest allocation.

Hi GF
I think what you are after is being able to set the date the task finished.
Try Tools/Tracking/Update Task.
If you set the finish date Project will assume the task is complete, which
is a reasonable assumption.
Otherwise, check Current Date in Project/Project Information and with the
task selected use the Update Task as scheduled OR Reschedule Task icons as
applicable.
When maintaining schedules like this I like to insert a "current date" line
on the Gantt. Do this by right clicking in the Gantt and then select
Gridlines/Current Date and select the color. Any incomplete tasks in the
gantt on the left of the line need to be either:
- marked as completed
- re-echeduled
- partly completed and re-scheduled
- or deleted

Hi Jan,

Thanks again. I ahve tried that too but some how it is not getting through

Only problem with using an Excel pivot table is the 256 column limitation on
a worksheet. The poster wanted to have resource names as column headings,
task names as row headings, and work assigned in the cell so defined. If
there are more than 256 resources, we run out of room.

Microsoft Word - Table of Conents

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 02:38 PM PDT

I am formatting a 60 page report and have created a table of contents. I have linked all of my headings and subheadings appropriately (with styles) however only about 90% of the headings show up in the table of contents. For example It will show:

Chapter 1 :
    1.1
         1.1.1
         1.1.3
    1.2
    1.5 

As per the example above it will be missing some of the headings periodically! So strange. I have unlinked the headings and relinked, I have updated the table of contents, deleted it and reloaded it. I can't seem to figure out why some are missing. I have showed this issue to friends and family and no one can seem to find out what is wrong. I have also been on the phone with Microsoft tech support - and the person disconnected with me over the phone  and on the remote  computer help that they were giving me after they admitted they could not figure out what was wrong. Not sure why they disconnected. Maybe someone here has ran into this issue before? If anyone can help I would really love to hear from them!

Thank you!

 

Problems with BOX Add-in in word 2013

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 12:23 PM PDT

My PC came back from the shop with the new Office 2013 installed and I have been trying to use the BOX ADD-in to save a copy of my files to the cloud.  Office seems to allow the add-in, but i am having trouble with setting a default location in BOX.  It will allow me to choose a default file and save it, and it may work for an hour or two, but then for no apparent reason, it will have changed and save my file elsewhere.  How can i fix this?

Copy and paste pictures from one doc Layout options Word 2010

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 11:35 AM PDT

Hi team,

When I copy and paste a picture from one doc to another in Word 2010, the picture is always pasted as In Line with Text (the source format) and yet, my Options are set to Insert/Paste pictures using Top and Bottom.

In Word 2007 I was always able to do the above without changing the paste options each time (for a new picture). In fact, I find the Copy and Paste options very annoying and unpredictable in Word of everything. there's no consistency.

Just like we can no longer lasso and entire set of text boxes and an associated picture unless the picture resides on a canvas, Word no longer seems to supports this paste option--or is this another "design feature." (MS needs to learn the difference between design features and major annoyances.)

I'm probably missing something here, but if not, my next post will ask how I can revert to Word 2007. Word 2010 seems so buggy!

Thanks.

- Lee

Inserting Symbols in Word 2010

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 10:23 AM PDT

This question involves something so simple it's almost embarrassing.  I want to insert a symbol in my Word 2010 document.  The usual way is Insert | Symbol | Symbol, I think.  But when I click on Insert and hunt for Symbol I can't find it.  A few websites I looked at seem to have Symbol in the same group, tab or whatever we call it, as Quick Parts.  But if so I can't see it.  I use German characters (symbols?) quite a lot since at least Word 2003 where I learned to insert umlauted letters such as Ää by pressing Ctrl-Shift+: and then the letter.  So where can I find the Symbol Menu/Dialog?  Or did I lose it somewhere?

Office 2013. Word opens only 2 pges of my 45 page file. File size 1.6 MB but only shows two pages

WORD DOCUMENT BUTTONS

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 08:56 AM PDT

Hopefully I can explain myself properly. So here goes. I bought a computer and it had ms office 2007 installed, but I've always used 2003 version on my old PC and i'm starting to figure it out slowly, but what has stumped me is the page breaking and to "disable" certain buttons so that my page numbering works. First I'll explain what i used to do with my 2003 version. I produce lengthy transcripts for court purposes with many witnesses during the day. A days testimony usually comes out to approximately 175 pages and as i said, 4 to 5 witnesses. So our format is we have to distinguish their names in the header under the page number as a new witness takes the stand. In 2003 version I would just click on page break, next page, then before i do anything in the header I have to click the "disabled" button that's highlighted so that i can indicate "continue numbering as previous" and then type in the new witness's name. The problem i'm having is where is that "disable" button or the "highlighted" button so i can start a new person? After I hit the page break next page i can't find to do that and I've tried just typing the name in but then the headers before that page revert to that person and so does the numbering. So i need to disable so i can start a new person. Also, when i save my document I'm saving it as 97-2003 version of word, but i still can't find that button. Thank you very much for your help in advance. I hope you understand what i'm trying to say.

Also, one other thing, when a witness is interrupted during testimony we have to put in four trailing dots at the end, but my dots are compressed together. I want the dots to be spread out. Any suggestions on this as well? This 2007 word version has stressed me out and i have the mind to just get someone to take this off my PC and install the 2003 version. It seems i'll never learn it. 

 

Word 2010 ribbon customization lost/reset

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 08:30 AM PDT

I have been trying to customize the ribbon in Word 2010, initially by moving the default groups around within the default tabs.  I moved groups in the Home tab first, and clicked OK to save the changes, which worked.  I then selected the Page Layout tab, opened up the customization again, and moved groups in the Page Layout tab.  When I clicked OK, these changes worked, but Word had reset the Home tab groups back to the installed defaults.

What does appear to work is to expand all the default tabs when in customization by clicking on all the + signs, when Word seems to remember everything I've done before.

I'm running a plain version of Word 2010 on Windows 7 with all the latest updates applied.  There are no add-ins installed.  Has anybody come across this, or have any suggestions about why its happening and how to solve it?  I do not want to have to resort to learning XML, just use the UI.

Need a reader to read Word files

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 08:29 AM PDT

I need a basic app or some software that will read an open Word File. I tried Natural Reader, but it skipped portions of the document. I tried Window-Eyes and it was overly complicated and was reading everything--all cursor motions, etc. I tried Windows Narrator, and it's reading everything on the screen. All I need is to have a Word document read to me aloud so I can proofread it against another file. Any suggestions appreciated. I wasn't sure if I need to post this in the Word category or the Windows category.

URGENT, when I print my thesis, its pages go from hundreds to thousands...can't export it anyhow!

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 07:05 AM PDT

It's many time I'm writing my thesis and I'm really near the discussion and I have to print it, of course.

The fact is it is impossible: as soon as I go in the print layout its pages are duped thousands of times and go from hundreds to thousands pages completely messed up. I think that's a problem with fields but I can't understand which one (s), where and how to solve. I can't export it by any means. Sorry but that's completely unexpected and really highly urgent issue.

I tried also with two different PCs with Word 2013, no luck.

When you save, close and open the document, or work with it, everything is alright.

Is there a way to don't care about fields for printing? The option is disabled....

Thanks.

Selecting Text--Sometimes it makes it white and unreadable

Posted: 05 Apr 2014 08:38 PM PDT

Hello, Hive Mind:

This is a small, trivial problem. But it bugs me a little, and I fear it might someday become bigger.

Recently, something changed in my Word docs. When I select text to edit it, normally there's a black background, with the words in white. It's easy to read and I can see whether I've selected the right text quickly and effortlessly. This is still the way it works most of the time.

However, on certain text, selecting it instead creates a white background, with almost completely grayed out letters. It is very difficult to read what I've selected to make sure I'm cutting or re-formatting the right parts. I have to slow down and double check by looking at either side of the selection to make sure I've got the right portion, and it takes a few extra seconds. It's a real annoyance and an inefficiency.

I have no idea what caused this to suddenly start--I'm assuming there is something in the underlying formatting to make it react this way. Any suggestion on how I can make the problem go away?

Thanks.

Office 2003 with Access 2000

Posted: 24 Jul 2006 03:42 AM PDT

Well the MS advice for running two versions of office/components is to
install earliest first update then install later versions. And to install
into seperate folders.
Unfortunately Office2k installs by default into the Office Folder, whilst
later version install to a version Specific Folder.
Having said that I have run an Access2k at default location with Office2003
installed without a problem.
So you should be just able to install Office2003 with whatever method you
use to roll out, ensuring that the install doesnt remove Access2k (This will
only be an option if your Office2003 includes Access2003)
Be aware if Office2003 features Access 2003 you might want to ammend any
Access2k shortcuts prior to install as these will be overwritten.

I've used both a unc path, local path etc. Each time I couldn't run the
install.

lost my activation after removing a trial version of Office

*That* is the information I needed. :-)

When you install it you should be prompted to activate by telephone. Select
that. Call them and explain the situation. They will help you.

need a product code to reinstall after crash

Posted: 20 Jul 2006 07:58 PM PDT

A workaround is to download Open Office from
http://download.openoffice.org/2.0.3/index.html and use it to open your
older Office files.

Word 2003 corruption

Posted: 20 Jul 2006 01:14 PM PDT

Well, it was not the "normal.dot" it was the "Send to laserfiche.dot"

http://www.laserfische.com/

This is a program that allows us to scan paper documents into a server on
our network. A few people have the Administration tools on their machines so
they can take a PDF file and scan into the database. I guess Laserfische
uses Word somehow to do this? I don't know, I have to look into it more.

But in C:\documents and settings\user\application data\microsoft\templates

Where Normal.dot is located, there is also a file called: Send to
Laserfische.dot

When we deleted the Send to laserfishe.dot, Word started working again.

wait, our developer just found an article on the Laserfische website about
this exact problem.

==================
In certain situations, the Send to Laserfiche feature may prevent the mouse
from functioning correctly in Microsoft Word 2003.
Resolution
The "Send to Laserfiche.dot" template is corrupted and is incorrectly
affecting Microsoft Word 2003. Delete the template and restart Word 2003. The
template will be automatically regenerated the next time you start Word.
To delete the template
Close all instances of Microsoft Word 2003. Use the Windows Task Manager to
verify that there is no WINWORD.EXE process still running.
Browse to C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Application
Data\Microsoft\Templates.
Delete the "Send to Laserfiche.dot" file.
=====================================

install office2003 pro. from backup

Posted: 19 Jul 2006 02:52 PM PDT

By reboot it is assumed you mean reinstall?
Depends what 'exactly' you mean by 'backup'
If you mean you used the default backup app, allmost certainly you would
only be able to recover data files.

Office Shortcut Bar Not Launchinng on Start-up

Posted: 19 Jul 2006 09:35 AM PDT

Many thanks for the info. Greg, especially the KB link. You wouldn't believe
how long I've worked on this, on and off (only a small problem, but I don't
like loose
ends)!

I've tried the '... start when you next start Widows'/Yes thing, but it
hasn't changed or introduced any icons anywhere. There's still only the one
I copied from the Start Menu in All Users/Startup - but since it looks like
it's not an apocalyptic event in itself, I'm going to just leave it (as it
does work).

Note that I was never asked about automatic start up of the bar when I first
launched it from the Start Menu shortcut, though, only when I manually close
it down. Still, it seems okay, so, okay then.

Thanks again, Greg,

Chris

Windows to Linux - HELP!

Posted: 31 Jan 2006 08:25 PM PST

 

For some applications it is easy to switch. There are applications for
which Linux is more complete and works better than Windows. For some
applications it is a bit more difficult, you either must force yourself
to adjust the way you work to be effective in the idiom of unix,
sometimes you must be willing to use bleeding-edge software, and
sometimes you must accept that there are situations where Linux simply
will not work, such as in the case of incompatable hardware where the
manufacturer does not want linux support to exist, or in cases where
the application you want to run is tightly bound to a particular OS,
won't run under emulation, and has no alternative.
 

Winmodem is one of those cases where you might not be able to solve the
problem at all. There are drivers for some modems, but for many,
there's no support at all, not even experimental support. AMR 'modems'
are the worst. They aren't modems at all, rather, they are an
accessory to some sound device that has a switching capability so that
it can be used on a phone line. Even worse than the DSP-based
windmodems, these aren't even related to modem devices. And the
software support does not exist.

I don't know exactly what hardware you have. Have you tried a 5.10
Ubuntu? or a late version of Knoppix? Those distros do a pretty good
job of detecting hardware, and I personally find Ubuntu to be the
overall best distribution ever for general purpose usage.

I use linux because I prefer it. For my applications, the platform has
superior features and performance to Windows. But I still have not
100% migrated (and I've been running linux since 0.99pl1). I have no
real alternative to ASIO-based digital audio/VST hosts, although some
of the experimental stuff coming out is fairly promising. The only
other issues have to do with certain types of media. For example I
have yet to see a linux-based DVD player that's any good, and even the
bad ones are so difficult to deal with that I don't bother. And there
are some applications that I run under VMWare, having no alternatives.

On that subject, I'm happy to report that the applications I run under
VMWare actually run better than the same applications on the same
machine natively under Windows. I have not come to any conclusions
about why this is, but it's true, and I was quite surprised.

I've digressed from your specific topic, and I apologize. But the idea
of a user who is very experienced in both Windows and Linux, and
experienced in computer organization in general, is very interesting to
me. None of these systems have any real mystery to me -- I've
developed applications and system level software on all these
platforms, and I'm decades into my career. So that's where my
perspective on migrating comes from.

usb sound cards + laptop?

Unfortunately the ALSA and the manufacturer idea of standard compliant can
be different. The manufacturers seem to think that "We can make it run on
Windows" is equivalent to "standards compliant". Also for some they require
a firmware upload. So once the firmware is uploaded the card will run fine,
uploading the firmware can sometimes be a chore (it used to be on 2.4
kernels and early 2.6 that the usb bus drivers had a bug making it very
difficult to upload firmware, The bus would crash if it was reset. I think
this is now solved. But it indicates that "standards compliant" may not be
the whole story)

Debian Sarge: Intermittent random crashes

Do you know if there's a document on the web that reports (almost) ALL

The situation seems extremely complicated in order to isolate the source
of this bad behaviour...

Where are the config files for the VNC server ?

Sorry, I lost track.

Take a good look at that init script's contents: I suspect you need to set
the VNCSERVERS to be associated with a specific X session and username, so
that the session is associated with that user, but I can't test it from here
right now.

Maybe you can get away with setting the CC environment variable for

httpd config issue with documentroot

First - I'm not a webserver expert.

However, I do remember finding in one of the config files a list of the
files which can be offered if a bare directory it given in the URL - so when
the browser sends www.bbc.co.uk the server adds / and then any of index.htm,
index.html and anything else you care to put in this list, that it can find
in the directory at the root of the site.

It strikes me that if a stray / has crept into the list, or possibly if the
list is empty, then you could see the above behaviour being a possible
result.

As I said, I'm no expert, but I'd look at the config files very carefully.
