error while reinstall Office 2003

sanhmm

This will happen if the registry contains Microsoft Windows Installer information from an earlier Office installation.

To rectify this issue you will need to run the Windows installer Utility. After try your install of Office 2003

Disable your AV and see if you have a 3rd party firewall program and it's setting that is interfering with your download.

Hi Juan,

There have been a number of changes from the prior Visio product lineup and Visio 2007 :) Visio 2007 is a new release rather than a
different set of features from the prior version.

You may want to check with the folks in the Visio discussion group through the link below for specifics, and what the migration plan
is from the Visio Enterpriese Architects version to the 2007 products.

Also, can they be installed side by side and what would one get for doing
that?

the error message went away because the product includes infopath. tried
downloading only the infopath component of enterprsie version to see if

The mail doesn't go through the same mechanism when sending through CRM, it
actually ends up going out through the CRM APIs as opposed to through
Exchange.

There are ways to solve your issue if you want it to work as you spoke, but
they require development to get it done.

only task and appointment activities get syned over to the outlook client as
of course outlook only supports these types. This is a pain of course but
make sure your users do not just keep using these types of activities. If
someone needs a popup reminder to appear that they of course need to use
tasks and appointments but for everything else they should use the
appropriate crm activity type

CRM 1.2 Redeployment problems with Step 5, mapping users

Posted: 18 Feb 2005 01:24 PM PST

Yes, I have the same number of users.....when it
says "same number of users", are we talking about same
number of CRM users or same number of users in active
directory? In the redeployment steps I had to map users
and I made sure I mapped every users that the
redeployment tool said I had to map to, making this a one-
to-one corresondence or mapping users from the old system
into the new system.
I am thinking there might have been some type of tweak
that they might have done with the permissions of the CRM
users created in the sample database...I am using this
sample database to practice this tool prior to using the
real production data to reploy.

Also, if I were to copy over exactly the same domain
(with the same domain controller name), same user names,
exact same SQL databases, I am wondering if you need a
redeployment tool at all? Has anybody tried this?

Invalid User Rights error

Posted: 17 Feb 2005 01:59 PM PST

Well, you could try looking in AD at the users to see if they are still showing
as having memberhip in the AD groups associated with the roles. It's possible
something got out of synch between AD & SQL. On the flipside, you could also
verify that they are given AD group membership when you assign them to a role.

The same error comes up. We have not changed the Business Unit either. It

Actually, if I remove all roles from a user, I get a different error message
too. It definitely seems to know the identity of the user within CRM and on
the Domain.

Are you maybe suggesting to create a new BU and add the users with new roles
to see if that makes a difference??

Could it be a SQL permissions issue? I've re-checked the permissions

Paragraph and Line Issues in Word 2010

Posted: 20 Jun 2014 02:43 PM PDT

I have a document with a numbered list.  Section 3.1 is near the lower middle of the page and 3.2 is on the next page.  I have quite a bit of white space below 3.1.  When I click on the paragraph marker to see if there is a section or page break the white space disappears and Section 3.1 goes to the bottom of the page. There are no section or page breaks.  When I unclick on the paragraph marker the white space comes back. 

If I press enter after section 3.1 it will bring 3.2 onto that page, but with extra lines in between 3.1 and 3.2.  When I try to delete the extra lines then section 3.2 goes back to the next page.  My line spacing is 0 points above and 6 points below single spaced for the sections.  On the extra lines it is 12 above and below. I tried to adjust the line spacing to 0 above and 6 below and it sends section 3.2 back to the next page.

Can anyone help me figure out how to get remove the extra lines or white space.

Thank you.

Images don't stay where I place them - Word 2013

Posted: 20 Jun 2014 12:34 PM PDT

I have several documents that are formatted as a subhead followed by a paragraph.  For some, not all, of the paragraphs, I have a picture that I want to place at the left margin, at the start of the paragraph.  I have the text wrap set to Square, 'move object with text selected.  The anchor symbol is on the line that starts the paragraph.  Sometimes, that works perfectly, and the image stays where it is.  Sometimes it doesn't - I can have the socument set up looking exactly as I want it...then I open it again, and an image has jumped, and no matter how many times I move it to where I want it, and redo all the settings, it jumps - usually above the subhead and to the left edge of the page.  When I drag it to the position I want, I can see the green layout lines...but as soon as I let go of the mouse, it jumps.  

Any ideas?  Thanks!  

Printing

If I print more than 1 copy in Word 2013 from the Print Menu, it is somehow "saving" that number and using it when I try to Quick Print.  However, when I go into the Print Menu, it says only 1 under number of copies.  How do I clear this?

Page Breaks in Word 2013 invisible and change formatting

Posted: 20 Jun 2014 11:54 AM PDT

When I use Control Enter to insert a page break, it has a style applied of 8 pt. after the page break and is left aligned. Then if you start typing after the page break, everything I type will be that same format, which we do not use. When I use the pagebreak icon available to use on the Quick Access Toolbar, it inserts as justified and 0 pt. after the page break. In both instances the page break is invisible unless I am in draft mode with hide/show on. Why did this change? In prior versions, the page break was always visible in draft mode even without show/hide turned on and the page break extended across the entire page. Now it is a short line that is invisible.   

If I try to remove the space after the page break to turn into a long page break as in prior versions, it sometimes does not work and every time it changes my formatting to left aligned with a style applied.  We always use full justification. 

I really need my page breaks to show up. 

Until Microsoft fixes this, I have instructed my assistants to use section breaks and not page breaks. Sections breaks are visible in draft mode without show/hide being turned on and does not change my formatting. 

Can Microsoft please fix this in an update? I know I am not the only one that is having this problem.

Thanks!

Formatting to apply to entire paragraph

Posted: 20 Jun 2014 10:44 AM PDT

Hello and thanks in advance for your help with this. I can't seem to find an answer anywhere--as I am not sure I am clearly explaining my problem.

I have Word 2010. I have a paragraph in which part of the paragraph is bold and part of it is regular font. In the past, when I'd select the entire paragraph and choose "bold" or "ctrl+b", the entire paragraph would change to bold, or regular (and then back if I hit it again).

Now when I select the paragraph it flip-flops. The section that was bold becomes regular, the section that was regular becomes bold.

I know I must have changed a setting somewhere, but I am not sure where.

- I have checked in options and cannot find this as a setting.

- I have changed the text to "normal" - vs. header

- The same thing does not happen when I use italics. It will italicize or un-italicize the entire paragraph, which is what I want.

I also know that this seems like a small thing, but it is something that I need to do quite often. And if it starts happening to other formatting options I'll need to know how to change it.

Thanks!

Doug Robbins' MergeTools issue

Posted: 20 Jun 2014 10:27 AM PDT

I recently downloaded Doug's MergeTools 20140218 in order to use the ManyToOne feature to send invoices to clients.

My excel file has all the field names as alphanumeric, no spaces before the first letter, and no numbers at the beginning of the field.

My header rows are:    Name  /  Email  /  Account Type  /  Account Number  /  Fee Perct  /  Q1 Fee

I have sorted by Name, the field I want as the Key Field.

What I need to happen in the mailmerge is display the name and email of each client at the top of the page, then have a table below with a header row of Account Number, Account Type, Fee %, Quarterly Fee

I've put in each of the merge fields in the locations needed, and put a bookmark named Group in the first cell of the first row of the table.

For clients with multiple account numbers, I need the merge to display all accounts for each client in the same table.

This seems to work great, except for a few problems:

When I run the utility, one of the fields (Quarterly Fee) shows the error "no document variable supplied" for every entry. That's one of the most important child fields I need to include, so that must be able to view correctly.

The last issue I have is my total row is not summing the column, instead showing "!D4 Is Not In Table." It is formatted as { =SUM(ABOVE) \# $,#0.00 }

Hopefully somebody can help!

Thank you,

Ryan

But yesterday, as I was working on a 112 page document,  I apparently hit  the wrong combination of keys, and immediately, the entire  document was turned into  a foreign language – maybe Greek!!!. I have been working with one form of  Word  for over 30 years. This has never happened to me before. I have never used the Translation app.  I tried to use this app to  get the document to go back to English – but each time it  fails to go back to English.    How can I get my original document back and how can I prevent this from happening again??? I am a writer and I am terrified that this will happen again! Please help!

How to divide 2 document property quick parts in one document by section

Posted: 20 Jun 2014 08:57 AM PDT

I have 2 status metadata quick parts in a document that need to contain different values. However, when I change one, it changes the other to the same value. How can I split these up so that I can put different values into the same type of quick part on within the same document?

Hidden Captions and Un-selectable Captions

Posted: 20 Jun 2014 08:51 AM PDT

hello,

I am writing a manual, and I have about 50 images in my file that I wish to have documented in a table of figures. Constructing the table is no problem. Even the first 40 or so captions work perfect and display correctly in the table. Then all of the sudden there is a problem. 

I have caption in the table "Caption 44" That does not belong to an object. If I follow the link in the table, it takes me no where. I realize I can simply delete it from the table, but every time I update, I'll need to do this. The caption 44 problem arose when Word decided that all images after the 43rd we're going to labelled as "Caption 44". 

Furthermore, some captions appear as text boxes, and they can moved around, while some are text like the rest of my document. What causes this inconsistency?

Finally, there is a caption that I can see that is not included in the table. I cannot select it, word doesn't seem to know it exists. My goal would be to re-number or update this caption because it is currently out of order. 

Thank you very much for our help, I truly appreciate it.

Is it possible to specifically define a collapsible endpoint?

Posted: 20 Jun 2014 08:44 AM PDT

I've been hunting the web for answers to this and have not found anything of genuine help. I'm trying to create a sub-section of a parent section that collapses the code samples so they don't clutter the readable portion of the document -- something akin to the "spoiler" sections inside a forum post.

Here's the layout for visual reference:

1) HEADER1

Text explaining this section and the purpose of the code.

a) SUBHEADER1

Code sample for SUBHEADER1

b) SUBHEADER2

Code sample for SUBHEADER2

Text wrapping up the section with additional notes.

2) HEADER2

Same structure as above.

3) HEADER3

And so on.

Now using the header styles this mostly works nicely, except for one problem: SUBHEADER2 seeks to include everything up to the next header in its collapse field. So the wrap-up text illustrated above also hides when collapsing SUBHEADER2. Functionally speaking this means that if you collapse the code sample from SUBHEADER2, you don't get to see the additional notes that follow-up the code sample.

This order of readability is very important for the doc I'm creating, so I can't accept the current behavior. Is there a way to manually set a header style's collapsible endpoint? Can I force Word to collapse only the code sample under SUBHEADER2?

Or is there another way I should be going about this?

Thanks in advance!

 How do you change the font and size on the blank worksheet so when you open a new worksheet it is the default font and size? It is easily changed in "Excel" by selecting options. The options page in "Word" does not have this option.

Error Message When Trying to Save Template

Posted: 20 Jun 2014 07:20 AM PDT

Hi,

I was trying to save a template by navigating to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates. I had done this very same thing recently with no problem.

However, this time I got this error message:

-------------------------------------------------------------

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates\[file name]

You don't have permission to save in this location.

Contact the administrator to obtain permission.

Would you like to save in the Documents folder instead?

I am the administrator! I double-checked the Control Panel to be sure that I am still showing as the administrator, and I am.

Please help!

Losing space on MS Word with different version

Posted: 20 Jun 2014 06:28 AM PDT

Hi. 

I have 2 versions of MS Word: Word 2010 and Word 2007 in 2 different place: a PC and a laptop.

Here is the example of what I often got:

 

In Word 2010, I wrote this: "This is just for an example to show what's wrong with this Word." 

Then I saved it in a flash disk, and I opened it in Word 2007.

and when I opened that file in Word 2007, this is what I saw: "This isjustfor anexample to showwhat's wrong with this Word." 

as you can see, there are some "space" that went missing. This thing drove me crazy because then I have to re-read and re-edit my whole document. If it just a page, then it's okay. But when the document reach 20 pages or so? nightmare.

Do you have any suggestion on what I should do to prevent this from happening?

thanks before.

Office 2013 - Can't save files due to "affecting the Global Template Normal"

Posted: 20 Jun 2014 02:28 AM PDT

Hi all,

As the title states, I'm working on behalf of a client and I literally have no ideas on what to do next from here!

I have tried the following:

Ran MalwareBytes

Ran ADWCleaner (This found 1 virus and stopped Cursor flickering)

Created a new Normal.dotm

Ran a quick repair on Office 2013

Ran an Online repair on Office 2013

Installed a Hotfix for the printer spooler not stopping when printer wasn't active.

Now he accesses the file from their server at the workplace which only he has access to, when he goes to save the document it says *like stated in the title* That saving this file will affect the Global Template Normal, I told him to OK it and see where it goes from there and it now gives another error message stating this

"We can't save this file because it's read-only.

To keep your changes, you'll need to save the document with a new name or a different location."

<Directory here>

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Is MS WordArt available in theOffice Word 365?

Posted: 19 Jun 2014 08:24 PM PDT

Has anyone used the MS Office 365 Word? Does it have the WordArt feature?

why cannot I use UNC path includes some special character?

Posted: 19 Jun 2014 05:59 PM PDT

I have used Office 2013.

when I use UNC path includes some special character such as '▶', MS Word and Outlook do not create a hyperlink for the path automatically. but Excel create the hyperlink automatically. 


Also If the UNC path include another special character( ★, ●, etc..), MS office(excel, word, outlook) create the hyperlink.

So If some one know about the reason, please let me know

Yes, you must copy the PST file to the hard drive and remove the Read Only
flag on the file unless you have a CDRW. I would look at USB storage card
for the PST file so you can access it directly from removable media.

Filtering Spam at the Server Level

Posted: 23 Jan 2007 03:50 PM PST

In article <googlegroups.com>,
com says... 

If you saw a 80% reduction in spam by removing GFI then you really had
GFI setup improperly or you white listed spammers.

Using IMF I see about 40% spam, and it doesn't catch the new spam for
weeks. With GFI and IMF, since they can both run, I see about 3 spams
per day out of 3000 attempted messages, where only 300 messages made it
to our mail boxes.

I've seen people white list a domain known for spam and have to go in
and correct it, but I've NEVER seen IMF do a better job than GFI, never.
