Microsoft Word - 2013 Template/Styles

2013 Template/Styles

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 02:51 PM PDT

I'm changing the template on a document that was created inWord 2010; we have upgraded to Word 2013.  When I apply a new template to the document, the number levels disappear (indents, spacing, etc. remain).  If I close the document and open it back up, the numbers reappear.  Is there a setting in 2013 that that I need to change so I don't have to close and reopen the document?  I've seen a suggestion of unchecking the "Automatically update docuemnt styles" but if I do that, the new style settings will not automatically update on the new document.

Manage Styles, Hide Until Used

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 01:54 PM PDT

This feature of Word must be hopelessly complex (so much so that it is over my head), or flat out broken in the UI.

Today I created a new template and in that template, I created nine new styles "Legal List L1 trough Legal List L9."  I then linked those new styles to a new List Style which I named "Legal List."

After creating the new styles, all nine styles appear in the Styles Pane.  My style pane options are:

Select Styles to Show:  In current document

Select how list is sorted:  Alphabetical.

With the template open and blank (containing no text).  All of these 9 styles appear in the Styles pain regardless if the select Styles to show is set to "In current document" (which I concede they may be), or "In Use" which they certainly are not.

The same behavior occurs if I open a new blank document based on this template.

Next using the Manage Styles dialog Recommend Tab, I set styles Legal List L4-L9 to "Hide until used."  Again, no combination of settings in the various Manage Style dialog tabs resulted in L4-L9 being hidden in the styles pane until used.

Finally I ran this macro which does at least hide the L4-L9 styles until they are used.  However if say L4 is applied to a paragraph and then that paragraph is deleted L4 remains visible and I can only hide it again by rerunning the macro:

Sub ScratchMacro()
'A basic Word macro coded by Greg Maxey
Dim oStyle As Style
Dim oPar As Paragraph
Dim bNotUsed As Boolean
bNotUsed = True
For Each oStyle In ActiveDocument.Styles
  If InStr(oStyle.NameLocal, "Legal List L") = 1 Then
    If Right(oStyle.NameLocal, 1) > 3 Then
      For Each oPar In ActiveDocument.Paragraphs
        If oPar.Style = oStyle Then
          bNotUsed = False
          Exit For
        End If
      Next
      If bNotUsed Then
        oStyle.Visibility = True
        oStyle.UnhideWhenUsed = True
      End If
    End If
  End If
Next
End Sub

Is it supposed to be this hard?  Is there nothing in the Manage Style UI dialogs that can be used to "hide" a style until it is actually used and if it is no longer being used then hide it again?

Thanks.

 

Word distorting Page View

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 12:44 PM PDT

I was working on a Word Document and when I opened it up it appeared as if the line spacing was 3 point but when I checked the formatting of the line spacing it was actually 0.95 point.

This skewing of line spacing resulted in the number of pages changing.

I sent the same document to another computer and that person did not have the same issue.

Can you tell me what is wrong?

Restricted text moves in a Fillable Form in Microsoft word

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 12:23 PM PDT

I have created a form that has about 30 parts that are fillable. The problem is when I go to type in the fillable portions of the forms it moves the restricted text over and effects the layout of the form I have created. Is there a way to keep the restricted words of the form from moving over or down when a fillable form is filled in? It wreaks HAVOC on the layout!!! Please help!!

Finding a document in Microsoft 2010 in a folder with over 100 documents

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 12:22 PM PDT

In XP, in Microsoft word, you could type in any portion of a file name i.e. a prefix such as add or a case # or a date.  In Microsoft 2010, this feature does not seem to be available.  What is an easy way to find the document I'm looking for in a folder with over 100 documents in it with different case numbers and prefixes? 

Importing Excel Data into a Word form field 2, 3 and 4 based on what's in word form field 1.

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 12:07 PM PDT

I have a 2010 Excel spreadsheet named Attorney Information, which is my database and I've attached for your review.  I also have a 2010 Word Setting Sheet document, which I've also attached for your review.  I use the Setting Sheet to schedule prehearing or settlement conferences all during the day and I keep my Attorney Information spreadsheet open so that I can update it as well as pull phone numbers and email addresses to use on the Setting Sheet.  What I'd like to do, if possible, is when I type an attorney name in the (CATY) Atty Name form field and (RATY) Atty's Name form field, that attorney information will automatically populate into the Word document, based on the attorney name.  So the Word Phone # form field will be the attorney phone number.  If the attorney has an extension number, that will populate into the Contact # form filed on the Word document.  And the email for that attorney will populate into the CATY Email and RATY Email form fields.  Like I said, all of this attorney information is stored on the Excel spreadsheet.

 

Thank you.

Word Macros

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 10:46 AM PDT

I am needing a macro that will update the source of all the links in a Microsoft Word document to a new source. I use Microsoft word documents that have hundreds of excel links, and many times I need to create a new Word file and a new excel file and link them together. The links are always in the same places/same tabs/same cell addresses in the excel workbook, but there may be references to links in multiple excel worksheets. Basically,  the macro would need to find all the links in the new word file and reset all links globally to a new excel file.

 

The update source dialog box would work for me, but it requires me to update each link individually. I want a global and quicker solution.

 

I have a Normal.dot template in Word 2003 that has a macro that performs this function, but it does not work with newer versions of Word (I understand they changed the VBA framework or something). If the 2003 Normal.dot file would help you I can provide it.

 

I currently own Word/Excel 2007, but I am not adverse to upgrading if I can get a solution to my problem.

Mail Merge problem re: DDE connection failure.

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 10:19 AM PDT

I am running Office 2013 on a Windows 8.1 system. I recently tried to set up a mail merge from an Excel spreadsheet to Word. It worked the first time except the labels had no margin but my printer did and cut off the top line of the first row of labels so I backed up and tried to fix the problem. I'm a novice a mail merge and messed things up a bit and decided it was easier to start over.

I closed the file I started and did not save it. On several subsequent attempts using the same steps as before I get hung up after I choose the excel file that contains my data. When I get to the "Confirm Data Source" pop-up and choose "MS Excel Worksheets via DDE (*.xls)", after a long pause, an error window pops up that says "Word could not re-establish a DDE connection to Microsoft Excel to complete the current task"

I've run several searches for a fix with no luck. Any ideas?

Restrict editing in a word 2013 template/fillable form

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 08:40 AM PDT

I've read and watched most of the information on restrict editing.  In the developer's tab I have clicked on restrict editing.  It brings up the three steps.  It allows me to change format restrictions (I haven't changed this).  I'm allowed to change editing restrictions (which I changed to fillable forms), but it won't allow me to do step three (which is start enforcement).  I have also attempted to restrict editing through the info tab/protect document.  I get the same result.  I'm guessing one of my content controls is wrong, but I've looked at them multiple times.  What can I do to fix this problem?

"The file ___________.docx cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents" and "Word found unreadable content in "________.docx"

I was working on a docx document this morning and it is wrecked after lunch.

I double click to open and a box comes up saying 'The file ___________.docx cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents'.

I click the Details button and the box now says 'The file is corrupt and cannot be opened'.

I click OK and a new box appears which says 'Word found unreadable content in "________.docx'. Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you trust the source of this document, click Yes.

I click Yes and the box appears, again, reading 'The file ___________.docx cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents'.

I click the Details button again and this time it says 'Microsoft Office cannot open this file because some parts are missing or invalid'. I click OK and all boxes disappear.

Any help, or is this document mysteriously dead?

MS Word 2013 not saving document that was "linked"

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 02:28 AM PDT

Hi, 

Hoping someone can help me. I created a blank master document in MS Word 2013. I then linked Multiple external documents using the 'Insert Text from file' function. 

Everything works fine (more or less), however, when I try and save my Master Document, it keeps on bringing up the "Save As" dialogue and just refuses to save my document. 

Any ideas why this is happening? 

Superscript / Subscript Bugging out in Equation Editor

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 02:14 AM PDT

The equation editor seems to be glitching.

The problem seems to occur while attempting to type an expression such as:

1/2 U"(w_t)

1/2 changes into a fraction fine. The expression within U"( ) does not become w subscript t.

When the equation becomes "corrupted" with this error, clearing its contents and attempting to type anything else (for example, x^2 does not change it to x power 2).

Is equation editor perhaps interpreting one of the expressions I've typed in as something else that I'm aware of?

Distance between two words with nonbreaking space

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 01:42 AM PDT

I have the problem that when writing in block scale and using the nonbreaking space (CTRL + SHIFT + SPACE), the distance between the words that are connected through the nonbreaking space varies depending on the distribution of words by the block set in a line. In principle, a difference from a normal space is barely noted.

In Word 2010, the spacing between words is only as great as the nonbreaking space sign. Just as it should be through this special character precisely.
The same document opened in 2013 and 2010 results in the different representations described above.

Is this a bug or a feature?

Insert page numbering - total number of pages showing incorrect

Posted: 23 Apr 2014 12:25 AM PDT

I have a 36 page document. We have created a front page, where I have selected a "current location" and used Insert > Page Number > X of Y (where "Y" is total number of pages.

I have also used this in the headers of the subsequent pages. In the headers of all subsequent pages "Page X of Y" shows correctly. However on the front page, whenever I make changes to the document, it goes back to "Page 1 of 3" (always 3 and I don't know where this number comes from).

If I delete the page numbering and re-insert, it shows correctly, but then, when I make any changes, it defaults back to "Page 1 of 3".


What can I do to stop this from happening? Or do I have to just keep re-inserting the "Page X of Y" option?

Word 2010 is making my new laptop slow to a point that I can't access other applications when word is open

I use Endnote X2 for my work. My new laptop with windows 8.1 works fine and fast when word is not open. But when word is open and I want to search a reference or something online then it is a nightmare. I have to click and wait and count to 25 or more. Things are slowing down to a crawl that now I keep 2 computers with me. I work slowly with word on my new computer and when I need to search anything, I use the old broken computer which is on its last legs. I will really appreciate help in resolving this issue. I m really worried that I can't work reliably and fast with word on the new comp and sorting this out is crucial as I have a thesis to finish.

Please help.

Posted: 08 Aug 2006 11:40 AM PDT

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

1) I just did a default installation so the Offline List points to whatever
it was at setup, which I think is Default Global Address List. That's what it
says in the box.

2) As for the System Folders, I see two entries:

a) /o=mydomain/cn=addrlists/cn=oabs/cn=Default Offline Address List.
However, status shows that size=0 and that items=0

b) EX:/o=mydomain/ou=First Administrative Group. Again, Status on "myServer"
shows Public Folder Store with size=0 and items=0

Any more info or ideas to correct would be great. For example, should I
attempt to create an Offline Address list that repeats the ones in the Global
List. If so, how do I do it?

Exchange 2K3 Server new hardware MOVE

Posted: 03 Aug 2006 03:35 PM PDT

Ed's right - if you can bring up a new server into your environment with a
new name, the Move Mailbox migration method would be preferred. Even if the
install of the new server goes awry, it will not affect the current
production environment. Once the server is installed, you can start to move
mailboxes between servers.

You may wish to read through the following KBs regarding mailbox moves to
get some helpful hints:

822892 Move Mailbox improvements in Exchange 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;822892

328810 Moving mailboxes between servers
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;328810

You won't need to worry about updating Outlook profiles if you keep the
original server online. When a user opens Outlook, their profile will
initially point to the original server. The original server then tells the
client where their mailbox was moved to and redirects them there. The
Outlook profile also gets updated to go to the new server from this point
further. Once your users update their profiles you can then go ahead and
decommission the server. If the original server is the first E2K3 server in
the AG, I would recommend following the steps in this KB:

822931 How to remove the first Exchange Server 2003 computer from the
administrative group

Posted: 15 Dec 2004 02:09 PM PST

The intregrated security between CRM & AD can be pretty finicky. Domain Admin
is usually a cure-all for a lot of there problems, but not always a desired one.
I've also succedded with a lot of trial and error on the service accounts
between Local System, Domain User & Domain Admin to see what works in a given
implementation.

I just ran into this today as well. I resolved it by changing SQL to Start
as a Domain Admin instead of Local System. According to the documentation
Local System should have worked.... but who am I to argue?!?

I don't believe it's possible if you want your users to be able to

Multiple CRM Installations <=> 1 Exchange Organization

Posted: 13 Dec 2004 04:26 AM PST

Last I heard, CRM 2005 is not planned to support multiple languages tied to the
same DB. However, there are no guarantees about that and they may end up adding
it to the feature list, but I'm guessing they won't.

If you can live with outbound only email, then you are okay in this situation.
What you lose is the ability to automatically associate inbound email back into
CRM (I know, not what you need, but it is an option).

Thanks Matt, I understand that I have a problem here. Possible solutions:
1. Reconfigure Exchange and give each country a seperate SMTP connection
with different Internet domain names. Quite a job and not logical.
2. Implement without the email function: the users will not like this.
3. Implement 1 CRM configuration with all functionality, the rest without..
4. Wait for CRM 2.0, but will this fix the problem, or will it support 1
installation with different languages at the client?

Microsoft Word - Help Editing a Style

Microsoft Word - Help Editing a Style

Help Editing a Style

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 02:35 PM PDT

I'm at my wit's end and would appreciate any help.  I have a list of styles in Word.  Some of them, when clicked, automatically add text as part of the style.  For example, clicking the style "Note 1" adds indentation and the word "NOTE:" next to the text I'm formatting.  How do edit this automatic text portion of the style?  In the example mentioned above I want to edit the "NOTE:" portion to change case, color, etc..  So far, I have been unable to find out how to edit this part of the style. 

Thanks

Graphics disappeared

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 02:19 PM PDT

I have been editing a series of procedures that have a corporate logo at the top of the first page.  All of a sudden the corporate logos quit showing up in print layout.  They appear when I print or in Full Screen Reading.  It is true with all of them - even those that I worked on yesterday where the logo was visible.  I must have inadvertantly changed something but I can't figure out what.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.  Well, as long as they pertain to this mystery!

Cannot find most recent version of Word file (used Office Mobile on Android to work on Word file saved on OneDrive)

I used Office Mobile for Android to work on a Word file saved on OneDrive. Now I cannot find the most recent version of the file. I am sure I saved. Any ideas?

Why does the spacing before a paragraph/heading disappear on a new page?

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 02:07 PM PDT

It happens no matter it's separated by hard page break, by option "page break before" or just by natural page break; it also doesn't matter what the style of content before these heading is. The before spacing of my heading on second page just disappeared, I find no way to bring it back. And, it only happens starting from 2nd page.

I know there are already a lot of topics about this in the Internet, but all of them were talking about very old version and some of options they mentioned are gone (like "Don't use HTML paragraph auto spacing", "Suppress extra line spacing at top of page", etc.). According to this question, this should be a bug and is supposed to be fixed in Word 2013. How every I still encounter this (showing hard page break):

As you can see I use 34pt before spacing for heading 1 to emphasis.

2 separate multilevel lists in the same document

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 12:32 PM PDT

Help! Please! I'm tired of banging my head on this issue.

I need to figure out how the numbering system works for a type of manual.

I figured out the main multilevel list part that goes like this:

1.0 Heading 1

1.1 Heading 2

1.1a Heading 3

1.1a(1) Heading 4

I am able to recreate this and it works fine.

BUT then there is a separate section at the top for a preface that is numbered differently and does not affect the other list.

The preface is numbered like this:

P.1

P.1a

P.1a.(1)

How do I have those 2 separate multilevel lists in the same document and not have them interfere with each other?

I can't figure it out.

Thanks soooo much for any help.

Office 365 (Excel, Word) hanging problems

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 11:17 AM PDT

I'm running Office 365 and Windows 7 Pro.  I have Avast antivirus up to date, and did a full scan recently.

Both Excel and Word are hanging when I try to open a document.  If I launch the program directly (without double clicking on a document) the splash screen/start page open fine, but when I try to open a document it crashes.

Excel started hanging first.  It worked fine in safe mode (including opening documents), so I disabled the AcrobatPDFMaker Office COM addin addin.  That worked for a couple weeks, but now it is hanging again. ( I have the AnalysisToolPak and Solver Add-ins as well).

Word has also started to hang, initially in a similar manner - i.e., it will open but hang when trying to open documents, but works fine in safe mode.  All addins are disabled.

I tried repairing the installation, but I got an error code when I did so, so I uninstalled it using the Fixit Tool and reinstalled.

Now not only does work hang when trying to open a document, if I click on "options" to see the addins, it hangs there as well.  Safe mode is still fine.

I'm at a loss for what else to try.  Nothing in the Event Viewer seems helpful.

Excel tables pasted into Word 2010 are distorted

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 09:55 AM PDT

When we switched to Office 2010 from Office 2003, we were no longer able to paste Excel charts into Word as before.  If I paste as Picture, the font is overly wide and the letters/numbers run together. It's not legible enough to use in a legal document.  If I paste as bitmap, the image looks blurry and grey/blue, and the file size is large.  With Office 2003 and 2007, the Picture paste looked perfectly clear.  This happens with dual monitors (Windows 7 32bit) and with single monitors (Server 2008 R2).

Printer functions perfectly and has loads of ink. No problem printing documents from Word. Envelopes are not printing.

I have tried via manual feed as well as the default tray and with different orientations. 

Any suggestions?

Word 2010 Spell Check Dysfunctional

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 09:40 AM PDT

I've had a problem for a couple months now with Spell Check on my laptop for Microsoft Word 2010. I don't know how, or why is started, or how to restore it to its previous functionality. I've looked at threads online, but I believe my situation is a bit different. As we know, Word checks spelling and grammar. Currently, Word on my computer is successfully checking and editing grammar mistakes, but not spelling ones. I've attached a screenshot as an example, with misspelt words highlighted. As you can see below, the misspelt words are not underlined in red, but the grammar mistakes do have the green underlining. This problem has me completely flummoxed. Any help with the situation would be greatly appreciated. 

Multilevel list

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 09:20 AM PDT

Hi,

Is there a way I can have a list numbering like

L1.a

L1.b

L2.a

L2.b

L3.a

.

L2.x

L1.c

.

.

.

.

L1.z

It looks so simple and intuitive that I am surprised that it is not included in the library or used as some sort of standard.

I have looked into ListNum fields but either I don't get it or it is not possible.

Anyone?

PS. (L can be any string like a subtitle but a short one, e.g: Section or Par)

While at work I can open, save and edit documents while I am hard wired into the internet connection. However as soon as I go to WiFi, I can not access any of my documents to edit them. This is a huge concern as I work remotely often. I tried saving documents to the hard drive, a separate disk and a flash drive. Non of that worked if I am not hardwired in at work I cant do anything. I cant seem to explain this to our it guy.

Losing links to Excel files in a Word Doc when copying files

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 08:34 AM PDT

Hi 

I am running Windows XP and Office 2007.  I have created a word doc with a link to one excel file. The two documents sit in the same folder.  I gave the files to a colleague on a USB stick, again in the same folder, but when he then tries to open the files on his machine (running Windows 7 and Office 2007) the links are lost.  How can I share these linked documents ? The same thing happens when I back up my data onto another drive.  All the links in the backup files are lost.  Any ideas ???  Thank you for responding.

No Recent Word Documents available when I open Word

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 06:32 AM PDT

My computer has Windows 8.1 with Office 354 installed on it. The problem I am experiencing is that when I open Word 2013 there are no recently opened Word documents displayed.  I have gone to the "File" tab, under "Options," "Advanced" "Display," and set "Show this number of recent documents" to 25. I checked the "Quickly access this number of documents" to 10.

As long as I am on the computer I can open and close Word 2013 and the recent documents will be displayed, including the ones I have "Pinned". When I turn off my computer and go into Word 2013 at the next session, all of the documents are gone including the ones that I have "pinned".  I do not log into Microsoft on startup. Can someone please tell me what is going on? Thank you in advance for your help.

I have just downloaded Office 365 for a trial. I work and speak in English (UK)  but need to be able to write and edit in German from time to time and  possibly other European languages. A few days prior to downloading I was advised b a Microsoft technical assistant that I would not need to purchase an additional language pack. However when it came to downloading and installing I am nor sure I clicked the right boxes and now  am finding the MS help pages really confusing. Can anyone help me?

Mail Merge won't print signature

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 06:11 AM PDT

I have this same issue in both Word 2010 and 2013.  I create a letter, select the recipients list, insert the fields where they need to be and then click Finish & Merge > Print Documents.  Everything prints except for my boss's signature which he did using a tablet PC pen.  If I just do a normal print (File > Print), then it prints fine.  Other images print fine.  What I have to do is to instead of using the Finish & Merge > Print Documents, I have to use the Edit Individual Documents.  If it is a large project (3300 records), then this step takes about an hour on my high performance computer and I had to cancel sending the job to the printer after 20 minutes of Not Responding....  So I had to do this in 100 record batches.  I would really like to figure out how to just use the Print Documents option as it can handle 3300 records no problem and is much easier.

I have the following options checked in the Printing options section of Word Options:  

Print drawings created in Word

Print background colors and images

Print hidden text

Convert Manual Numbering 1.0, 1.1, 1.1.1, 1.1.2 to automatic numbering - Word 2007 VBA Macro

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 05:51 AM PDT

Link to the Example File.

I saw a question Doug answered in 2012 and I tried to impliment it but it doesn't seem to be working out for me. I was hoping the community could shed some light in the situation. I'm new to VBA and am trying my darndest but I must acquiesce to my ignorance.

Here's the question I'm refering to:

I'm doing a mass conversion of word documents from one company's layout to another companies layout. During this process I want to keep intigrate the files manually typed out numbering system to the new files automatic numbering system so it makes any revisions in the future easier.

Some numbering exists in the old format so I do the following:
ActiveDocument.Range.

I then want to convert the text numbers (as seen in the attached doc) to an automatic numbering system in the same format. It'd be nice if it put them in their respective levels.

Example:
(manually typed text)
1.0

1.1

1.1.1

1.1.2

1.1.1.1

to

(automatic list formatting)

1.0

     1.1

          1.1.1

          1.1.2

               1.1.1.1

Do you know if this is possible?

Thanks everyone!

Templates in WORD 2013

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 05:34 AM PDT

Recently migrated from Office 2003 to Office 2013 & Windows 7.

In Word 2003 I created a number of templates for the varied purposes of my documents.  I have imported these templates using "Fix It".  When I open a document I am converting to the 2013 format: .docx.  However, the document's Template is still in the 2003 format: .dot

Each file contains the instruction to 'Always Save a Backup'.  After Saving the document as .docx the Backup copy remains as .doc.  I clicked to open the Backup (as a test should I need it in the future) but it cannot open.  Logic tells me that this is because the document's template is still .dot and needs to be converted.

I am happy to convert the Templates but my question is: Can I attach the named template to a number of documents without opening each and every one?

"Control + right arrow" inserts a tab in Word 2010

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 04:08 AM PDT

For some reason, using the control key and the right arrow key causes a tab space to be inserted in the documents, rather than moving the cursor to the start of the next word.  I cannot find out how to change this so it moves the cursor to the next word.

Hi

I am importing Word document to another application. As part of that process, I need create equivalents of Word styles and then map them.

For that, is it possible to generate a list of styles that are in my Word document? I just need the list of all styles in any format (Excel, PDF, XML, etc.). If I can source from some file in my Program Files folder, that is also fine with me.

Microsoft 8 - Cannot open WORD

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 02:29 AM PDT

After buying a new laptop in January 2014,  WORD has been opening successfully allowing work to be completed. However, in the last two weeks Word has tried to load and stopped with a message "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly, Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution  is available" It then prompts you to close programme.

I have paid for advise from PC World 'Knowhow' they checked my PC and advised me to refresh my laptop. This I have done, WORD worked for a day then stopped again with the same message appearing. This is very frustrating!!!! How can I rectify this?

With kind regards

document too big in single page view

Posted: 22 Apr 2014 01:49 AM PDT

Hi, I have Word 2007 and Windows 7.

When I open a document, as of yesterday, the single page is too big and the type is bigger than the size 12 in the display box at top left of screen.

The sliding scale at bottom right of screen says 120%.

If I start to slide the pointer to the left, the view changes from single to double page, which is too much of a distraction.

If, using the view button on the ribbon, I then click on 'one page', I get a single page but this time it's too small.

this time the pointer says 73%.

If I slide it to the right I again get two pages.

How do I get 100% size single page, which is the way it used to be before yesterday?

Thank for any help you can give,

Laurence
