"Scale to paper size" shortcut Posted: 27 May 2014 01:10 PM PDT Hi guys, Do you know if you can set a shortcut (either a button or keyboard) to the Scale to Paper Size option? Or do you know how to generate a macro that scales the active document to a certain paper size? (yup, I'm the guy at Mexico with the paper sizes problem) I'm trying a new approach here. Thank you all! |
VBA for check box that when selected populates a text form field with the result entered in another text form field Posted: 27 May 2014 01:07 PM PDT Hello, I have a set of text form fields in a Word Form that will sometimes have the same data as text form fields in a different area of the same form. Is it possible to have VBA code that when someone selects s check box, the second set of text form fields will be populated by the results of the first set of text form fields. The first set of text form fields have the bookmark names of Firstname and Lastname. The second set of text form fields have the bookmark names of FirstnameBirth and LastnameBirth. Thank you |

Data in one box to fill in another box Posted: 27 May 2014 11:22 AM PDT Hello Word community! I am wondering if there is a way that I can put data into one box, and then, based on the data entered, have another box with different but corresponding data populate? At my work, I answer appeals for state institutional charges, and we use a book that has many offense codes for different offenses., such as "102- Possession of a Weapon" or "239A-Assault upon a non-offender." In the letters my department uses to respond, we have to put the "offense code" in one box and then the title of the offense in another. So my goal is to have two boxes- one where I put in "102", and the other, that automatically populates with "Possession of a Weapon," or automatically populates per whatever offense code I enter. So "226" would pop up "Gambling or Possession of Gambling Paraphernalea" and "122A" would be "Possession of Unauthorized Drugs," etc. etc. etc. Is this possible or am I just dreaming? I am pretty sure it has something to do with "Fill In Boxes", but I can't seem to figure out how to make it work... |
Different Headers Posted: 27 May 2014 11:15 AM PDT I am trying to have different headers in the same document.

Multipage .tif in Word Document Posted: 27 May 2014 10:30 AM PDT I am trying to insert a .tif image into a Word document.

Issue with inserting online video from YouTube Posted: 27 May 2014 10:29 AM PDT When attempting to insert online video in either Word 2013 or Powerpoint 2013 using the Youtube option, I click on a video then select insert but nothing happens. This is while logged on as a domain account. When I log onto the machine as a local user it works fine. I have another domain account that is in the same OU and it also is fine. As far as I can tell they have the exact same group policy settings. The only difference is the account that is having the issue is a local profile while the one that works has a roaming profile. Anyone have any thoughts or ideas on this? |

Creating scale drawings in MS Word 2010 Posted: 27 May 2014 08:57 AM PDT Hi, I am creating a document where I need to embed scale drawings. In Word 2003 I found a very convenient way of achieving this, by embedding a MS Word Drawing Object. This allowed me to edit the drawing in a separate instance of Word at a 1:1 scale, while the view of the drawing in the main document could be scaled separately with the format object options. Since the MS Word Picture Object is no longer available for insertion in Word 2010 documents, it seems this approach is no longer possible. I tried embedding a standard MS Word Document Object, but I found that changing the scale in the format object options of the main document has consequenses on the page size of the embedded document, is there an option somewhere which would affect this behaviour? Can anyone suggest an alternative way to accomplish this level of conveniece when working with scale drawings? Kind Regards, Matt. |
Track Changes in Word Document Posted: 27 May 2014 08:52 AM PDT Hi I was sent an application form with suggested track changes on it - when I opened it in Word, I couldn't accept them. The ribbons running along the top of the document only had FILE,INSERT,PAGE LAYOUT, MAILINGS - i've since discovered through countless online support in the USA! that I need REVIEW in the ribbon running along with the FILE etc..... but I don't have it. Is there anyway I can get it or add it. I'm using Windows 2012? Help!! Thanks |

Custom labels for captions are not available after the document is closed. Posted: 27 May 2014 06:58 AM PDT I am using Word 2003 on Windows 7. This is the first time I am using Word to do something this particular, so I may be doing something wrong. I am more more of a LaTeX user. I have inserted pictures in my document, and added custom labelled caption. (Insert -> Reference -> Caption). I created a new label, and named it "fig.". I can then add cross-references, and the dropdown menu lists fig. with the list of all available captions. this works perfectly well. However, after closing the document and reopening it, if I want to add a new cross-reference to an already existing label, when using Insert -> Reference -> Cross-Refence, my "fig." label does not show up in the list of available labels. If I go to the bottom of my document, do the whole thing again and insert a new caption, and create a custom label, if I choose "fig.", then the newly inserted label gets the correct number (so the label number sequence is stored correctly in the document), and if I insert a cross-reference, then the whole list with all "fig." captions is available again. Am I missing something? |

I can't repair Error 1907 on my Word (Office 2010) in Win7. Why? Posted: 27 May 2014 06:29 AM PDT My OS is Windows 7 Pro, 32-bit. Issue is created by Word (MS Office Home & Student 2010 SP1, 32-bit) although it worked OK on WinXP. When I click on the Word 2010 icon, the Word splash screen shows up for a moment and immediately is replaced with Window with MS Office Configuration progress. After 2/3 of the length of the progression bar the warning: 'Error 1907, Could not register font' is issued. The only working option there, is Abort that causes rolling back changes. I've tried to: 1. Repair the installation from Programs and Features - no changes 2. Scan system files with sfc /scannow - no problems found 3. Substitute the Windows fonts with fonts from my MS Office 2010 installation DVD disk, which I failed, as I was unable to locate the .cab files with fonts on my MS Office installation disk. More specifically, I was unable to find PropPSww*.cab files suggested by some helpers on this forum, and the owow64ww.cab file after decompression didn't show any .ttf files. I don't know what to do further. Please help |

How to solve the ignorance of numbering order in a shape? Posted: 27 May 2014 01:23 AM PDT Below is an example of the trouble in question. Both "Africa," "Europe," and "Asia" are applied with the same level in a numbering system. However, "Africa," which is located in a shape, doesn't share the numbering order, so "Europe" is preceded by a new order (no. 1) and does not succeed that of "Africa" to be preceded by no. 2. Is there any solution for it? |

Text Wrapping a graphic moves tab stops off page Posted: 26 May 2014 11:29 PM PDT Hi, I have a menu and want to add some graphics. The main format is <----text-----> (decimal tab) 99.99. On inserting a wrapped picture that affects the text area the decimal tab stop on the ruler does not move, but the actual position that the price is displayed at moves to the right and can disappear off the right side of the page. The effect is like this (p=picture area):- <--------text---------> 99.99 ppp<--------text---------> 99.99 pppp<--------text---------> 99.99 ppp<--------text---------> 99.99 <--------text---------> 99.99 but should be:- <--------text---------> 99.99 ppp<------text------> 99.99 pppp<-----text-----> 99.99 ppp<------text------> 99.99 <--------text---------> 99.99 I have tried different wrap styles but without any luck. Also with or without a leader. Anyone got an idea? |

Index has mixed fonts Posted: 26 May 2014 06:47 PM PDT I have five indexes. Everything works correctly except some of the lines in the indexes themselves are in small caps or bold or even in a different font. My index entries in the text do not call out any fonts, faces, etc. A typical entry for the Subject index (S) is { XE \F "S" "physics:relativity"} and for a multi-page entry, {XE \F "S" "Summary of Part B " \r "Z_B6"} where Z_B6 is the bookmark for the multi-page Part B summary. I use yellow as the highlight color for the former type and green for the multi-page ones. When I print I will remove the colors and substitute Bold for the latter type, if possible. I can easily give an entire index a uniform font, face, size, etc. the same way I would do it in the text. Fine, but I would like some of the lines, namely those referring to a range of pages, to be in bold. Unexpectedly, the highlight color seems to be maintained correctly in all index lines. 1. Is there a way to search for text with a given highlight color? 1. Is there a way to specify the font, etc. in index entries in the text? 2. Specifically, is there a way to make an index entry in the text specify bold? Thank you. This has been puzzling me for months. |
