TOC Page numbers in front

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 01:45 PM PDT

Hey ... !

When using the TOC Field Code, how do I place the page numbers IN FRONT of the Style?  There's got to be a kludge for this ... maybe using bookmarks?

So instead of this:

BEARS ....... 5

COWS ....... 7

DEER ......... 8

I want this:

5  BEARS

7  COWS

8  DEER

Strategy for creating a dictionary

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 01:42 PM PDT

I want to create and print a personal dictionary in booklet form. It should include words, their definitions, and preferably header guides (e.g., "egg" appears in the left-side header of a page that begins with "egg" and "egret" appears in the right-side header because it's the last term on the page).

I'm using Office Professional Plus 2013. Is there a good way to do this in Office? Enter data in Excel, print in Word? Enter in Access? Create booklet in Publisher? Just use tables in Word? I'm not sure what would be the easiest way to build a flexible and editable format. Any suggestions?

Alternatively, does anyone know of a better tool for creating dictionaries like this?

Word document losing periods and initial caps

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 12:39 PM PDT

I'm using  Word 2007. Does anyone know what might have caused a large document on which I was working to lose periods at the end of many sentences, and the initial capital letter at the beginning of the following sentence? It sounds like a macro, but I"m not using any macro like that. 

Mail Merge mix-up

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 12:36 PM PDT

I use mail merge to print mailing labels directly onto my monthly newsletter. I have entered the information into an Excel spreadsheet and each label prints fine. It seems that mail merge takes groups of 15 records and will print them in reverse order (I realized this when I was just printing in alphabetical order, not by zip codes). Now, I have the records sorted by zip code, and then the zip codes that all go into one mailing tray are grouped together, but all on one spreadsheet. When I print them, they are so mixed up.  I have to sort through 600 newsletters to find every one that goes in each tray. I can't print each tray separately because they all have to be submitted together electronically as one mailing job to the USPS. Is there a way to stop this shuffling of records as it prints?

Continuing a style across a page

Does there happen to be a way in Word 2013 to add the "THE YELLOW CAB (CONTINUED)" automatically where it breaks pages?

Thanks!

Formatting random alphanumeric numbers in Word.

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 10:49 AM PDT

I am about to send out survey questionnaires that must not identify respondents by name or make it possible for anybody to guess who a respondent is in a controlled target population area. Hence I need consent numbers in-lieu of names. How do I make Microsoft Word to generate and insert random alphanumeric numbers on a document, in the same way dates are generated?

I am sorry if this question sounds dumb. I am not just too technical.

Thanks,

Word 2013, W8.1, Docx - each line of text is on a separate page after the first page

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 10:13 AM PDT

In Word 2013, W8.1, in some docx documents, beginning with the second page, each line of text is on a new page.  Saving these into doc format solves the problem, but there are times I want the docx features.  This is not consistent behavior and I have not tracked down a root cause.  The first page is fine, but starting with page 2, there is only one line of text at the top of each page and the next line starts a new page.  The effect is like there is a next page break at the end of each line, but only in docx (and, again, not consistently with all docx documents), including header/footers and page numbering.  A 3-page document may display/print as 100+ pages, and number each page accordingly. 

Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

Upgrading from Office 2007 to 365: what happens to customizations?

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 10:05 AM PDT

We may be upgrading a Win 7 machine from Office 2007 to Office 365. In doing so, what will happen to our customizations?

Assuming they'll get lost, are there any steps I can take to make the transition easier? Customizations include:

A custom style set that I use on almost all incoming documents. Will I be able to export/import it?

A small collection of macros I've written. Will it be as easy as opening a Visual Basic window and copying over to the new install? Will I be pasting to the same location?

Extensive keyboard customizations. Is there a way to export/generate a list of customizations before upgrading? If there is a process to re-mapping, I'd rather do it all at once than try and remember every customization. Also, is there any way to do the mapping based on that list. That is, it will be quite tedious to re-map them one at a time using the 'regular' customize process (i.e. scrolling through a list to find the command, etc.). Can it be automated at all?

The least likely is custom add-ons (e.g. Oxford Concise Dictionary). I assume those will need to be re-loaded from scratch.

Any other typically customized categories I've forgotten about in the intervening seven years (seven years!)?

Sorry if this is in the FAQs or basic help--I've searched but not found anything.

Oh, and though I'm posting this mostly about Word, if there are similar guides or resources for Excel and Outlook, those would be much appreciated. Thanks~

How do I save font style changes to custom headers in Word 2007?

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 09:47 AM PDT

I am trying to save a simple custom header in Word 2007. It only includes a page number (in a separate text box) and a StyleRef field (Chapter title). In the header drop-down my custom header says "Error! no text of specified style in document." (All built-in headers with a "chapter title" display the same message.) However, when I insert it, it displays fine with one exception. I can't save changes to the font styles in this header. I want to save it as Cambria, pt 12, bold, small caps. I can apply this formatting to my text then overwrite that header or even save my changes as a new header. The font style changes show up on my header drop down box (although it just applies the font styles to its "Error! no text of specified..." message). It all works fine until I exit the document and save changes then reopen the document. There go my font style adjustments. They're gone from the header drop down box and they only remain on the very first word of the header. What am I doing wrong?

Trouble opening a Word 2013 document with Word 2007

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 09:41 AM PDT

[Edit: If the likely source of the problem isn't version compatibility or you've never heard of such a conflict telling me that would be appreciated too]

A client that sends me documents to work on recently switched over to Office 2013 (we're on Word 2007). Since then (or perhaps somewhat since then; this may be a correlation/observer bias problem on my end), I've had trouble opening some Word documents.

When I try to open a document, I get the generic "The file xxx cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents. There are no error details available.

Here's where it gets a bit weird. I can change the extension from .docx to .zip and see the contents of the archive and open/view various xml files. Furthermore, I can paste it into a shared directory with a Linux VM and open the files in LibreOffice without a problem (I have to work in Word though, so that's not an easy way out).

I'm on a Win 7 machine running Office 2007. The files have come/created by different machines on the client's end without any discernable pattern—some files have opened fine. We asked on client to back-save and that seemed to work, but we can't really keep asking them to do so.

I'm kind of at an abrupt dead end diagnostics-wise. In a pinch I can save the LibreOffice as a Word doc and move forward, but I'm not comfortable with that as a solution—these are 200-page books with lots of graphics, formatting, tracked changes and comments; I'd hate for something to get lost in the transfers.

Any thoughts?

Thanks~

Office and pdf files suddenly can't be opened.

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 08:10 AM PDT

I have a situation on our network. a large portion of our doc, docx, xls, xlsx and pdf files on our shared drive won't open. Word files say "Word cannot start the converter mswrd632.wpc". Excel files say "The file you are trying to open is in a differnet format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?". Pdf files say "Adobe Reader could not open the file because it is either not a supported file type of because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).". This happened a couple days ago on Friday morning. I have been trying to figure out what happened. At the time, I was working on a user's computer removing a virus from it. Remote Desktop would fail when ever he tried to use it. It would fail with the message about Faulting application mstsc.exe with the faulting module of mstscax.dll. After some research it pointed towards a virus. Using Kapersky I found the virus in the boot sector. I use the tool from Kapersky called tdskiller to remove it. While dealing with this I started to hear users say that they couldn't open files on the network share. After finishing the virus removal I turned to this problem. I verified that the files wouldn't open. All the pdf, excel and word files would report the above messages. After restarting the server some of the files would open. I have a majority that won't. If I try to copy the files to my desktop I still get the same messages. The files are on a virtual Windows Server 2003 and in a shared. When I agree to open them in either word or excel (acrobat doesn't give me the option) they display gibberish. I scroll down thru them and see no recognizable text. It looks like the following for example, "Ã.yuvµæJC"Ln<gÔ–i1eK1´Ùô"¸q"0Æ*\É¢"¬ÙW>L#KÄÎp". I am not certain if it is a virus or file corruption. I am not certain how to recover the information. Should I do a check disk? Any help and ideas would be hugely appreciated.

Word 2013 Configuring online content access

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 07:07 AM PDT

Hi All,

I'm trying to configure Word 2013 to allow access to Insert \ Online Pictures \ Clip Art as an internet resource, yet suppress other internet services such as File \ Account \ Connected Services \ Storage | Other Sites | Office Store.

The only GPO I have found that affects these settings is Microsoft Office 2013/Tools | Options | General | Service Options.../Online Contentshow which edits the reg key 

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\policies\microsoft\office\15.0\common\internet]
"useonlinecontent"=dword:00000000

Configuring the GPO to Allow Office to connect to the Internet enables both Online Pictures, and Account \ Connected Services.  Disabling the GPO turns them both off.

Is it possible to suppress Connected Services while allowing Online pictures?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt

Saving Docx as ODT skips equations containing '/' : bug in omml2mml.xsl ?

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 05:41 AM PDT

Hi,

Whenever I save a DOCX file as ODT, equations containing '/' in them go missing in the ODT version.

This looks like a bug in the omml2mml.xsl XSLT that transforms equations from Office MathML to MathML.

This happens in both Office 2010 and 2013, it also occurs in 3rd party tools like Wordconvert1.1.exe that use Word's Document SaveAs API.

Is there a known fix? Please help - this is a real showstopper for me.

I can email you sample files to reproduce the issue.

Thanks,

Amit

Links replaced by things like {HYPERLINK "xxx"} (MS Word 2007)

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 05:36 AM PDT

Hello,

My MS Word 2007 was working fine for years and all of a sudden, all links are replaced by code looking like something like {HYPERLINK "xxx"}.

If I do a print preview, the links show normally. I am guessing I enabled/disabled something but can't figure out what.

Attached is a print screen of one word doc showing the issue (note: I have closed, shut down the PC, reopened other docs, etc... the problem persist and is on all Word documents).

Help!

Text is being compressed when printing Word document

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 04:36 AM PDT

Hi Experts

I have noticed every now and then that when printing a Word document some of the text is being compressed into what seems like one character for each line. However it is not all text parts of the document that are being compressed. I have experienced this on two different brands of printers (HP and Canon) now.

It seems to make a difference removing the printer and adding it again but I do not think that really is a solution. As far as I recall I have read somewhere that this has to do with background printing in Word.

Anyone has a solution for this without deactivating the background printing of Word?

I have written a novel that has 11 chapters.  I have written each chapter in a separate Word file.  I would like to assemble these into one manuscript without having to copy and paste each chapter.  Does Word have any capability to do this?  I'm thinking of something like this:

3rd Section

...include FigPage.docx

4th Section

"Add a Place on the Cloud" link in Word 2013 does not respond on my PC hence I cannot add "Dropbox" - "OneDrive" is added by default

Posted: 01 Jun 2014 10:52 PM PDT

Configuration: Word 2013 (32-bit) on Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

In the following image, as we see, "+ Add a Place" link is meant for what it says BUT, when put in action, it simply responds NOT to left or right click.

As it says, adding location would hep save Office documents to the cloud. Therefore, I wanted to add here "Dropbox" which I can use for saving Office documents to the cloud.

But then, I CANNOT do this because the link does not respond.

Does it respond to click on your PC and lets you add Dropbox or any such other place on the cloud?

Or, is your experience like me?

Word 2003 problem opening docx files

Posted: 01 Jun 2014 03:36 PM PDT

I know that 2003 is no longer supported, but I thought the community may be able to help me.

I have two computers, both running Windows 7 Professional and Office 2003 with SP3 and the format converter.

On one computer, everything works fine--I'm able to open the new formats ("x") by double-clicking on the file.

On the other computer, I can do the same for xlsx and pptx files, but not for docx.  I can open docx by opening from within Word, but not by double-clicking on the file name.  I get an error message that says:  "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed".  I checked the list of file types in the control panel and they are correct.  I then un-installed and re-installed Office 2003, SP3 and the file converter add-on.  No change.  I'm stumped at this point.

Anyone know what the problem might be on the second computer?  Thanks.

List styles - chapter heading

Posted: 01 Jun 2014 12:54 PM PDT

Hi everyone,


I'm preparing a template for my PhD thesis (using Word 2007) and have a nicely functioning multilevel list style (thanks to Shauna Kelly website). I want to change the appearance of level 1 from what it is now: "CHAPTER 1. Title goes here" (in caps) to what is on the attached file (made with Corel).

So my questions are:

1- How can I use "ONE" as the number style for the first level and use a numeric digit as the chapter number on the subsequent levels?

2- How can I separate in different lines "chapter one" from the actual chapter title?

3- How can I add a line between them?

I tried a lot of different ways and searched online for help, but so far I failed to find an answer...

Can anyone help me please?

Many, many thanks in advance! :)

Use My Own Templates

Posted: 01 Jun 2014 12:26 PM PDT

This applies to both Word 2013 and Word 2011 (Mac). When starting a new document from templates, I want the default opening screen of templates to be my templates, not Microsofts templates. I create a lot of documents from templates that I create and while it is only an extra click, it seems counterintuitive that the program assumes I don't want to use my own templates. How can I change this to be the default.

Similarly, is there a way to change the default table properties?

Thank you.

Problem with pages in MS Word

Posted: 01 Jun 2014 08:00 AM PDT

Hello, everyone!

Few months ago I've encountered a problem using my MS Word. I am using the 2013 version. The problem is the following: when I open a blank document or a temlate the page size is adjustable and I can chose it or change it and everything. Then, when I save and close the document and re-open it again pages are literally missing. I mean everything is one BIG white page and all elements - pictures, texts, text boxes, tables - are one over another. When I open old files the same happens. The existence of page borders is down to zero!

I don't have a clue what to do. I need to finish my diploma work and this is causing me troubles since I can't write everything at once and saving the file ruins everything I've created up to then. 

I hope you can help me. 

Thank you all in advance.

automate e-mailing of word document

Posted: 01 Jun 2014 12:02 AM PDT

How do I create a Word Document with a self contained BUTTON within the document.  

That button, when clicked ,will automatically send the document as an attachment to an e-mail.

The email TO and SUBJECT will also be hard coded into this wonderful magic BUTTON.

I have been playing with Macros and Visual Basic but I am in over my head.  Can anyone help?  I need to send out this document to about 50 people.  All of whom will edit it with their specific data.  They may forward the document to other people too.  Then they all need to send the edited documents back to ME (even if I am not the one they got it from).   In the end, I need to gather all the edited documents for review.  Many of the people getting this document have very limited computerskills.  The idea of saving a file from an email, editing it, saving it again, and then attaching the saved file to a new email and sending it to a specific address...  Well that can be very complicated for a lot of people!  Better that they open the document from their email, edit it, then click on a BUTTON that sends it (edits and all) to where it needs go.

I have tried the Macro:   {MacroButton FileSend Double Click to Send}

Which calls up email and attaches the document but does not insert an address to send it to

I have tried inserting a hyperlink:

Which calls up email with the correct Send To Address but does not attach the document

I like the Macro best because the user does not have to "save" before sending,  but the address needs to be filled in for them.

I have Word 2007 on a PC,  and Word 2008 on a Mac

The people receiving the document will have Word (various versions on various platforms).  I am hoping to be compatible with as many as possible.  I will attach A PDF version as well for those who just want to print it out, mark it up, and stick a stamp on it.  But the fewer manual revisions the better.  So how do I make this SUPER SIMPLE and idiot proof?  I really don't want to have to manually input everything myself! 

The document itself is done and pretty easy to use.  I just need that Magic BUTTON to get them to the correct e-mail.

Office 2003 OEM Trial - Disk Cleanup removed setup

Posted: 28 Dec 2006 04:22 PM PST

Not at all strange - the reason Microsoft will not support OEM installations is that the OEM customizes the applications for their machines and Microsoft is not privy to the thousands of tweaks that system builders use for their custom installations.

That, among other reasons, is the best reason to buy a plain vanilla Office package separate from the computer. Microsoft is completely familiar with its workings and you can transfer the software to any future computer of your choice, as well as install on a second and third computer (STE).

Office 2007 expiration problem solved!

Posted: 28 Dec 2006 03:41 PM PST

I rather like IE7 and it works just fine on my older computer. As for
WMP11 - yes, it's ugly but since I don't use it much, who cares? It works
and that's what matters.

Should have kept the beta

The good thing is (or should be) that you have an older version of Office to
install and use. You'll need to install that converter (unless you saved
everything as an older version) but you'll be up and running.

can't find Outlook 2007 after trial installation of Office 2007

Posted: 27 Dec 2006 04:32 PM PST

Hi, Trying to figure out why outlook wasn't included in my download of
Office Pro 2007. Thought maybe the download was incomplete (there are those
two download buttons). Downloaded it a second time. Still not there.

Tried to install the outlook contact manager, but got the message that can't
happen without outlook present. Thought maybe outlook was part of another
grouping of office programs. Downloaded Office standard. Still not there.

Imagined maybe something about the whole installation of Office 07 was
corrupt (partly because of the warning about sql express being
"incompatible" with some features) but also just to get a fresh start.
Uninstalled all the 07 office programs.

Downloaded a fresh copy of office pro. This time a slightly different
configuration of download files. First few times was 2 downloads of about
300 mgs each, this time the second one was 148 kb. Maybe this will be the
charm. Started the installer.

Noticed that a "custom" installation was offered. So looked at that to see
if outlook was mentioned. It was and I selected it but found out I needed to
remove my old outlook xp first. (This should have been mentioned in the
download/installation instructions, I think)

Removed the old outlook. Ran the installer. No outlook. Ran the installer
and looked at add components. Saw outlook with a big red x saying not
available.

Closed the installer. Sometime later, forget just head scratching, this was
a hair pulling event, opened the add components and clicked on add from
this computer.

So fine, the installer got the outlook 07 that had been there all along and
installed it.

Guess what happens next?

Results in next post.....

Microsoft CRM - installation of MS CRM Active X components

Microsoft CRM - installation of MS CRM Active X components

installation of MS CRM Active X components

Posted: 31 Jan 2005 06:46 AM PST

Hi Basman,

If you logon as a user with administrator rights and that activate the Lead
import functionality, the active-x component will be downloaded and installed
on youre local machine.

Standard Microsoft CRM gives the user the first time the option to install
the active-x component, once this isn't done corretly the first time, there's
no way to install it a second time. I presume that that registry is holding
some kind of setting. The only way to by pass this is to logon as a user with
admin rights.

HELP! I changed every users' business unit

Posted: 29 Jan 2005 06:13 PM PST

The problem is, when you move a user, it remvoes all their security roles. As a
result, you now have no users with any security roles. You may be able to
manually fix this, but it will require manaully making changes in both the
database and in Active Directory. It may be easier to contact support and ask
them for assistance. Otherwise, if you are willing to mess wiht it, you need to
create the correct records in the SystemUserRoles table and then add the user to
the approapriate AD groups to reflect the System ADmin role for the BU they are
now in.

Any ideas please? Please don't tell me reinstall is the only way around it.
Besides, doesn't it seem a bit silly that the software allows you to do

Anyway, I would be grateful for any help you can provide.

Hey CRM Gurus,
I found some previous messages with links to microsoft about this

The error I am getting is "Metadata cache error" I know that
replication is not turned on in the database. Some of the other
articles refer to CRM version 1.0 and I am afraid to try those steps in
our 1.2 installation. Does anyone know the answer to this? I would
really like to get this solved before start of business Monday, or I
will have to repoint CRM back to the crappy server until I can solve

You might also want to look at something like Genesys Labs products. They have

"Thank you for calling the Microsoft CRM line, my name is $NAME, I see
you're calling about account number $ACCOUNT_NUMBER, is this correct?". That
kind of stuff.

Fanny, I've seen this stuff in relation to, of all things, IP-based PBXes.
If this isn't what you're looking for, you'll have to custom-create a popup
window for the products section of CRM.

Which one was it about?

Dear Nikhil,

Please make sure everything in the following list is true:

1. The machine must be a part of the same domain as the MSCRM server.
2. The user must be a domain user existing in Active Directory Users and
Computers.
3. The user must be logged in as himself.
4. No previous installation of MSCRM Sales for Outlook (SFO) still exists
on the machine.
5. Microsoft Outlook must be installed and opened at least once with the
correct exchange configuration for Mr. John Smith on the machine.
6. The user must be a local administrator on the client machine.
7. The machine must be able to see the microsoft crm server on the network.
8. The user must be a valid MSCRM user.
9. The user must have a MSCRM user license (Sales, Customer Service, or
Suite).

Kind regards,

Hi,

I used Title style for chapter titles and Heading 1, 2, 3 for sub-chapters and paragraphs. I'm trying to generate Table of Contents, but the titles are not being included. It seems that I was not following required MS Word conventions of heading levels, so I would like to do so now. I would like to decrease heading levels by one and change title style to heading 1 globally in my document. Is there a way to do it?

A typical Problem with Typing and Spellcheck in Word 2013 with Indic language Bangla (India)

Posted: 30 May 2014 07:29 PM PDT

I am using

  • Windows 8.1 (64-bit) 
  • Office 2013 (32-bit)
  • Microsoft's Indic Language Font Mangal developed by C-DAC, India
  • For Phonetic English C-DAC ISM V6 Multi-lingual Interface (32-bit) for Bangla (India).

I have installed Language Interface and Proofing Tools as shown below (Microsoft Dictionary for Bangla is not yet available) -

I typed Bangla Word সম্বন্ধিরা using same set of tools which prints itself here correctly, and also in the file name of following screenshot when it was saved on my computer BUT the problem lies elsewhere as described below with the help of following screenshot and areas marked with numbers 1, 2, 3 in red boxes -

  • In Word 2013 the word prints differently (five separate letters) as shown by [1] above
  • When I run Spellcheck the word shows correctly (four separate letters of which the second letter is combined) as shown by [2] above
  • As [2] above is the correct one, I need to select that from box [3] and click 'change' button, so it can replace the spelling marked with [1] but, as you see, box [3] is blank, and therefore, I cannot do what is needed to be done here.
  • Correct spelling as identified with [2] seems like an image, not text, and therefore, cannot be copied and pasted to correct the word as identified with [1]

This is only an example. Numerous are similar cases in my Word file that I am presently working on.

Question is how can I possibly get over this situation?

Any practical hint will be welcome, and appreciated.

Thank you all for your valuable time spent on reading this case.

OFFICE a $100 rip-off

Posted: 30 May 2014 06:18 PM PDT

I just purchased OFFICE upon the recommendation of three retail outlets.  I told each that I wanted a word processor and each told me to buy OFFICE.  I did and after going on line and installing OFFICE, I find out it is only a lease and I will have to pay $100 every year to use it.  I really have no use for most of OFFICE, all I need or want is a good word processor.  Why isn't the information printed prominently on the package?  Why wasn't I informed before install?  Do I have any recourse?  IS THERE A GOOD WORD PROCESSOR PACKAGE I CAN BUY OUTRIGHT AND HAVE FOR A LONG AS I WANT?  Recommendation -- please.  I'm 73 and I'm not great with computers but I'm not stupid either.  I just want a good word processor.  My discussions as to my needs were with BEST BUY,  STAPLES, & OFFICE DEPOT.  I was looking to buy a new computer and wanted a word processor for it.   Wal-Mart had the best price on OFFICE so I bought it there, now I'm stuck with what I don't need or want.
