MS Word 2010 - Table of Contents - Looks Good on My Machine ... Not So Much on Others Posted: 22 May 2014 02:32 PM PDT I have created a TOC in Word 2010. It looked good on my machine. I e-mailed it to several other people in my group. When they open it, the TOC information on each line was separated by a large amount of space and wrap around to the next line. If the recipient does and "update entire table", it seems to correct itself. One noted exception is that in my version, I see some later entries as "2.14Serial Number", while my recipient who has updated the entire table sees, "2.14 Serial Number". I have done a "repair" on MS Office from control panel. The problem persists. Any ideas? |

Autocorrect and mail merge Posted: 22 May 2014 01:16 PM PDT I have a mail merge that adds in doctor's names from an excel sheet into a word file. The excel sheet does not have the doctors credentials only the first and last name. I have entered the credentials in autocorrect so if John Smith is typed it will autocorrect to John Smith, MD or whatever the appropriate credentials are. When I mail merge Word does not recognize and automatically insert the autocorrect function to add the credentials unless I manually hit space after each doctor name. This is a long list so it is time consuming to hit space after each one. Is there a way to automate this? Thank you |
Word Doc printing unevenly Posted: 22 May 2014 01:11 PM PDT A multiple page document I've been working on has been printing unevenly. Some of the text is really heavy(as if it were outlined even though nothing was done to it) while some of the text is in a much lighter weight. Even when converted to a PDF, the document would still print the same way. Most of the content has been copy-pasted from another Word document. It's definitely not an issue with the printer because I managed to troubleshoot a similar problem before but forgot how I resolved it other than copying and pasting everything into a new document but it doesn't seem to be working this time around. I'm working on Office 2011 on a Mac. Thanks! |
I can't save a Word 2013 document in Windows 8.1 Posted: 22 May 2014 12:11 PM PDT I have a new installation of Office 2013 on a Windows 8.l1 computer. I also have Word 2010 on the computer. They are both recent downloads from MSDN. For some reason, I can't save a Word document. I can save PowerPoint and Excel documents. When I click Save, nothing happens. In 2013, I try to click a folder and nothing opens, no matter which location I choose. I've tried My Documents, Desktop and OneDrive. No such problem with PowerPoint or Excel. I first saw this with a new document (unnamed), but the same happens with existing documents. I can't save ANYTHING. I have 3 hard drives and Office is installed on C:, which is a solid state drive. I want to save onto another drive. I did a repair of Office 2013 and it didn't help. Has anyone heard of this? Obviously, it's a very serious problem! Ellen |

How to control word wrap starting point in a bulleted or numbered list. Posted: 22 May 2014 09:45 AM PDT I would like for word wrap to be indented. For example, this is how word wrap works now in a numbered list. 1. Item 1 Description one 2. Item 2 Description two is long enough to word wrap and the next line begins under the "I" in Item 2. I would like for word wrap to : 1. Item 1 Description one 2. Item 2 Description two is long enough to word wrap and I would like the next line to begin under the "D" in Item 2. The Indent, first line and hanging indent all move the entire "Item 2" line and do not perform as desired above. I would like for word wrap to begin as described above. |
Macros display settings in Word 2013 have been changed during a software update, help Posted: 22 May 2014 08:22 AM PDT My word document is linked in numerous places to my excel document.

Incorrect size for table row breaks over a page - Word 2010 Posted: 22 May 2014 04:15 AM PDT I have a four column table which extends over multiple pages. Some cells in the third column are necessarily lengthy and some break across pages. In itself that is acceptable, but I find that sometimes the continuation row on the subsequent page is displayed incorrectly with a significant gap - equivalent to three or four lines - between the last line of text and the bottom cell border. A display of paragraph marks and other symbols shows no unexpected entries. While I realise that I could choose not to allow rows to break over a page, I would prefer not to do so. Can anyone help please, or is this a bug? Dave |
Templates in Word 2007 Posted: 22 May 2014 03:21 AM PDT I am trying to deploy some templates that I have made so that they are automatically available when I open Word. These template files are files that were originally .doc files that I have just changed the file extension of to .dotx. I know to put them in the users Roaming Microsoft file which I have done which does make it show up in the My Templates section of Word. However, when I go to open said templates, I get a dialogue box saying "Word has encountered a problem." Can anyone help me identify what is wrong or if I am making a mistake somewhere. If you need anymore information, just ask. |

2013 Word Calendar Wizard Posted: 21 May 2014 04:34 PM PDT I am unable to find the "calendar wizard" in Word 2013 which I have used for over 15 or so years.

In addition I have the same issue as already posted by someone where the months from the 2003 word calendar wizard version opened in word 2013 are overlaid on top of each other. I will try the suggestion.....there has not been a reply from the user at this time. |
Can not see pictures when I copy and paste - Word 2007 - unsure of setting - only getting outline Posted: 21 May 2014 04:04 PM PDT I am unsure if anyone will be bale to assist me. I have tried everything after Microsoft Word crashed. I have googled and been told to remove or rename the Normal template and now I have noticed only in some instances I am not getting the pictures that once used to appear. I also notice that if I change the settings in one document at the moment and start another - one will have a picture appear and the other will just have an outline. I wish to have all the documents display pictures. I have ensured that Picture placeholders - is not checked. I also have been to include as much information as possible as so someone may be able to assist. I am unsure if the graphics are floating as therefore will not display. Any assistance would be appreciated. https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=7A797BF1CB645296%211277 |
Indexing in Word Posted: 21 May 2014 03:50 PM PDT I have been trying to create a heading across the top of the two columns of a Word 2007 Index. There does not seem to be a way to do that - am I right? The problem is that manually putting a heading across the page gets it deleted at the next update of the Index. And, saving to PDF regenerates the Index, and also destropys the heading. Any answers ... ? Thanks in advance. Kenneth Spencer |
