Email CRM

Posted: 24 Feb 2005 04:11 AM PST

steps to remove the GUID:
1. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSCRM.
2. Find the registry key with a ValueName: MessageTagBehavior
3. if the key does not exists, create it using the following values:
Value Type: DWORD key value
Value Name: MessageTagBehavior
Value data: 0
4. If the Value is set to Null or 1, the tracking number will be attached.
If the Value is 0, the GUID is not attached to outgoing e-mails.
5. Restart the MS CRM Exchange Queue Service

Removing the GUIDresults in the loss of MS CRM ability to automativally
track
the incoming e-mails!!!!?

Whats the limit of entries for picklist?

Posted: 23 Feb 2005 08:10 PM PST

There may not be a limit by design however when we had a picklist over 600
entries, some client machines got stack overflow errors.

The original post is in
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/microsoft.public.crm/browse_thread/thread/d916f8cebcafe87a/4e50e78333bd7fd2?q=picklist+error&_done=%2Fgroup%2 Fmicrosoft.public.crm%2Fsearch%3Fgroup%3Dmicrosoft .public.crm%26q%3Dpicklist+error%26qt_g%3D1%26&_do neTitle=Back+to+Search&&d#4e50e78333bd7fd2

We were advised by MBS and needed to apply the following to every affected
client (which was any machine that was not XP SP2)

Edit Filter Criteria in Custom View - Maximum Record = 100

Posted: 23 Feb 2005 06:07 PM PST

Thank you for replying John. I think we are talking about two different
things. So if you would bear with me, these are the steps to what I am doing:

1. Home -> Settings
2. System Customization -> Contacts
3. New View -> Contacts
4. Create a new View -> Give it a name "ABC Company"
5. Edit Filter Criteria -> Configure Criteria
6. Field (Parent Account); Condition (Equals); Value (ABC)

The system returns the window "Look Up Records" and shows a box with an
information circle and the quote "More than 100 records are available. Try
another entry if you don't find the record you are looking for."

In the "Available records" window, I can see the first 100 ABC companies. I
can select the first one and if I hold the shift button and scroll down to
the last one, I can select the last one and move all of these accounts to
"Selected Records". It is at this point that I am unable to grab the
remaining 20 records. If I run the search again, the same 100 records are
returned.

One round about solution would to create a button or drop down box with
specific branch names but I am reluctant to do so as we are extremely close
to using our maximum bytes for the contacts table.

Any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your response. I'm glad you were able to turn lemons into

for duplicates accomplish the same you are doing now only faster. What is
the advantage to doing it manually.

KDC error 11 : SPN problem

Posted: 23 Feb 2005 07:17 AM PST

Ok, here is a more detailled solution :

First of all, you have to remove the duplicate SPN (in my case, it's
host/dozer.mydomain.com => the FQDN of your CRM Server).
To find which obect have this SPN, you shoul use ldp.exe on your DC
(anderson in my case) :
start/run ldp.exe

Then click Connection, and Connect...
Leave the Server empty, check that port is 389 and clear the checkboxes.
CLick Ok.
Click connection again, and Bind...
Leave all the fileds empty, and click Ok.
You should have "Authenticated as dn:'NULL'."

Now, click Browse, and Search...
Base DN : DC=mydomain,DC=com (you should replace with your domain name)
Filter : (servicePrincipalName=host/dozer.mydomain.com) (with the '(' and
')', and replace dozer.mydomain.com with the FQDN of your CRM Server).

Scope : Select Subtree

Click options : in the attributes field, add "servicePrincipalName;" at the
end (without the "").
Click Ok.
Click Ok again on the Search Window.

You should have a result like this (supposing that CRMUser is on on the
default user's OU : Users, and Dozer in on the default computer's OU :
Computers) :
Getting 2 entries : 
4> objectClass: top; person; organizationalPerson; user;
1> cn: CRMUser;
1> distinguishedName: CN=CRMUser,CN=Users,DC=mydomain,DC=com;
1> name: CRMUser;
2> servicePrincipalName: host/dozer.mydomain.com; HOST/DOZER;
1> canonicalName: domain.com/Users/CRMUser; 
5> objectClass: top; person; organizationalPerson; user; computer;
1> cn: DOZER
1> distinguishedName: CN=DOZER,CN=Computers,DC=mydomain,DC=com;
1> name: DOZER;
2> servicePrincipalName: host/dozer.mydomain.com; HOST/DOZER;
1> canonicalName: domain.com/Computers/Dozer;
------

The first Dn correspond to the User that you use to launch the CRM services.
The second Dn correspond to your CRM Server.

Now, you have to remove the SPN host/dozer.mydomain.com to your CRM User
(not the CRM Server, if you do that the Server should not be able to log in
into the domain).

To do that, you have to have the setspn utility on your DC. (if you don't
have it, you can install it from your Windows 2003 CD : directory
SUPPORT/TOOLS, you have SUPTOOLS.msi).
Now, open a command prompt, and execute this command :
setspn -D host/dozer.mydomain.com CRMUser


Okay, now the KDC error should stop.

Another problem then appears : you are not able to log in to your CRM
Website (IE gives you a 401.1 error).

See http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;871179 if you
want a detailled explication.

If your CRM Server just host the CRM Website, AND ONLY IF, you have to add 2
SPN to your CRM User. If not, see the Workaround section.

The 2 SPN are : http/dozer and http/dozer.mydomain.com

To add it, jsut do
setspn -a http/dozer CRMUser
and
setspn -a http/dozer.mydomain.com CRMUser

Now, you should be able to log in again to your CRM Website.

Hope this could be helpfull :)

Found a fix and am posting back in case others encounter the problem.

Never found the actual root cause of the problem, but what I did to fix it
was:
1) Logged on as administrator
2) Backed up the user's Documents and Settings folder
3) Deleted the user's Profile (My Computer > Properties > Advanced)
4) Logged back on as the user so that Windows would recreate the profile.
5) Proceeded with CRM install and all went as expected.
6) Restored user's Documents and Settings folder

No data when offline

Hi John

Thanks for your response. I tried your suggestion but this didn't fix the
problem. However, i received a fix from partner support that did so i will
post it here to help others that may have the same.

The fix was to delete three registry keys on each of the client machines.
The keys were under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSCRM
They were: LastSyncDate, SQLServerName and UserReplicationID

After deletion i went offline using SFO again which recreates the correct
key values. I can now view all the correct data when off line.

that was the problem.

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.

Copy/paste of my answer from m.p.e.admin:

No, there is nothing interesting in event viewer. And I cannot use old
account for starting services, because it was deleted from AD, and I
cannot recreate that account, because some services are still logged as
"old" user. It is clear? :-)
Bad situation. I can reboot the server, but it is not a good idea,
before I clear the situation completely.

Old account was deleted accidentally. I have a problem with Connector

Microsoft Word - Microsoft Word 2007 LiveRecovery

Microsoft Word - Microsoft Word 2007 LiveRecovery


Microsoft Word 2007 LiveRecovery

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 12:45 PM PDT

  Hi, I wasn't able to see any threads addressing a problem like this so I decided to sign up.

  While I was doing an important document and typing it up, I had to insert a picture. I had almost finished but when I put in the picture, Word suddenly stopped working. It gave the "Microsoft Word has stopped working" message and then another saying "...is trying to recover your information" and then finally, "Windows will close the program and notify you..."

  Now, due to my ignorance, I forgot to save the document. I had that Document Recovery thing on and thus I wasn't so worried... Until I clicked on the most recent file and got the same error messages. Every time I tried to open the latest file, the same thing would happen again and again. Sorry for the long ramble but is there anything that I can do to recover it?

First Page not printed when a graphic?

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 12:37 PM PDT

I have just gotten two student documents that had the first page a cover page---all graphic. The Graphic ribbon opened up. When I clicked on that portion to see the Style, I only saw "no spacing."

I tried to avoid wasting ink printing up that crud, and told Word to print up pages 2-7. Word not only skipped the first page that was teh cover page, but also, the first page of text. This happened with 2 separate files.

Under what conditions here does Word not print the first page, automatically? Or better, not even count page 1 as a page 1? If I see that No Spacing style, will that tell me that Word automatically cuts out the first page? This way, I know what to tell Word to print, and can avoid searching through all the files, for the one that I need to reprint.

Capitalization and Headings

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 12:30 PM PDT

REQUIREMENT: Create titles and headings without capitalization - this is distinguishes personal content from content authored elsewhere.

PROBLEM: Word places distracting, heavy blue underlines under non-capitalized titles and headings, clicking 'ignore once' only works once and only for a limited time, while editing.

QUESTION: There used to be a [ ] Capitalization checkbox in previous version of Word. Where is that in Office 365 for Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit.

SO FAR ... This disables underlines, but turns off spellchecking.

Sometimes Pamphlet is grayed out sometimes it is not

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 12:24 PM PDT

I have installed Office2010 and (fortunately) kept Office2003.  I have a Word document, which is set up with page size "invoice" which is a half-page standard letter paper.  The document is intended to be printed as a foldover booklet, or pamphlet.  

The Printer Properties (Sharp MX-2600N) shows the option "PAMPHLET STYLE" which prints perfectly, double-sided, ready to be folded in the middle.  

Sometimes the radio button to select PAMPHLET STYLE is grayed out, and sometimes it is not grayed out.  This has me stumped.  

I can get around the problem by opening the Word document using Word2003.  The radio button is never grayed out in Word2003.

Mail merge in MS Word 2013 using 2 letters per sheet

Hello

I am hoping to Mail Merge from a database of names into MS Word 2013. My document is an invitation, using two invitations per sheet. I have inserted a "Next Field" between the two invitations (Rules, Next Record from the Mailings dropdown menu), which picks up the next name from the database perfectly on sheet one, but sheet two starts with the second name, instead of the third. This happens with each new sheet. Can anybody help?

Drop-Down box with option to type manually

I read several of the other posts that were related to this before posting and only one looked like what I was looking for but it appeared to be for Excel and not Word.

Obviously adding all of  them is not only impossible but very time consuming and with the change to ICD-9 to ICD-10 having the ability to manually type in this box while still having all the selections would be very nice for all of us. 

So to be as clear as possible I need to know if I can keep the box and all its contents and in the event the doctor needs to type in a diagnosis that is not in the box that he can do so without having to edit anything since the form is generally in protect mode. I hope that is clear. I also need step by step instructions if possible since I have tried just about everything I could think of.

Can I "add a place" in Word "Save As" that is NOT cloud based? If so, HOW?

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 07:58 AM PDT

All I want to do is to add a place where my files will be saved so I don't have to dredge through the folders on my computer to get to the one I want.  Not all of us save ALL of our documents to My Documents or to cloud based locations.  It was a ridiculous concept to begin with.  I have specific folders for specific projects ON MY COMPUTER and would like to add "save as" places as those particular folders.  So, how can I "Add a Place" that is NOT cloud based?  The only options Microsoft seems to allow is Sharepoint and Onedrive neither of which I use and neither of which I ever have any intention of using.  Actually, I would also REALLY like to disable Onedrive entirely so it never shows up again on ANY of my Office programs as it really screws up Outlook, but that's a whole other issue.

Paragraph or section expand/hide option

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 07:39 AM PDT

I recall some time ago being able to produce a Word document where individual paragraphs could be formatted such that they could be hidden or expanded for viewing. For example, a document may be a discussion about a topic where a question is posed and the following paragraphs or sections can be formatted such that the reader cannot see all the information initially - they could click on a button [I think it was a button] that would then show the content of the following paragraph.

Hi,

I see that I am not the only person having this problem.  I did what was given as a remedy, I (R) click propertes, advanced but no ready for archiving was available to click.  I also tried to enter my number of the computer and it wouldn 't accept it.  I know that I had 25 times to do it in.  Do you think because it wasn't entered that I was shut down?  Need help please.

Thank you.

I can't drag a table to move it within a document

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 06:22 AM PDT

I seem to have lost the ability to drag a table to move it around the document. I'm not sure what setting has changed/needs to be changed to allow me to do this again.

Any help would be appreciated. 

How can I change the default language in Word for iPad?

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 04:30 AM PDT

I have WORD 365 for iPad but it seems the default language of a new document is not English since everything I type gets that wriggly underlining.

My question is: how do I change the default language of documents to English?

Any help would be most appreciated.

Word 2010 - How do you create a default table that has a set row height?

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 03:03 AM PDT

I am trying to create a standard word doc table for my department and we want to use a standard table format.

I have set the Table Style I want as a default and can set every value except for row height.  We've been using Arial 9.5 for the text and the row height seems to always come out as 0.79 cm.  I would like it to be exactly 0.5 cm as this takes up less space and looks neater.  There seems to be no way that I can set this row height as a default.  Can anyone help?!

I know it is simple to change each table individually, but when you have 50-80 tables in any single report it takes an awful lot of time that could be spent more constructively.  Any help gratefully received!

Multi-lingual document-sharing issues with caption references

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 02:34 AM PDT

Hi All, we share documents between several European Research partners and as I was 'tidying' one up to make the final version I finally realised why we have such difficulty with references.  It turns out that word uses language specific references e.g. { SEQ figura \* ARABIC} in Italian and { SEQ figure \* ARABIC} in English.  So if I add a a caption in my version it won't appear in the table of figures as it's looking for figuras not figures and vice versa.  I also can't reference any figuras as they don't turn up in the list of figures when I ask to insert a cross-reference.  While I understand the need for readability in the references this incompatibility makes it a nightmare to manage documents across multiple language users. (For reference, the documents we're writing are all in English - it will be the system languages that differ).

Does anyone know how to effectively manage figure/table references in large documents with multiple multi-lingual authors?  Also when word looses a cross reference, something it seems to do frequently when moving between different partners, is there a way to find out what the new number (i.e nnnnnn in {REF _Refnnnnnn \h} so that I can do a find and replace to update things correctly.

As someone who uses LaTeX on a frequent basis it never ceases to amaze me how much time I can waste on correcting these issues in word, if the reference identifier were present in the figure reference (e.g. { SEQ fig ID _REF0123456 \* ARABIC} then the common "Error Ref not found!" would be a lot less common.

WD2013 master document is it possible to export as a single .docx file?

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 12:55 AM PDT

I have a 40 chapter book in master document form. It refuses headers and footers, and altered the page margins when I tried to use them. It will not scroll properly, loses and finds pages and graphics leap about at random. It is utterly chaotic.

So as not to lose a month's work I desperately need to save it as a single document. I have tried compiling the individual chapters but the formatting is incorrect and the first section is of course missing - of course, if you add it, it becomes a master document again. 

Question: does anyone know how to achieve this?

As a note, this is a top end workstation with 32GB of ram, solid state memory and 14 processors. This is not a hardware problem. The OS is Win7 64 bit, completely up to date. 

Microsoft Word 2010 (Windows 7)

Posted: 01 Jul 2014 12:02 AM PDT

I am typing UK English on a US layout keyboard. Which means I need to type UK English on US English keyboard. Before some smart alec say "Change your physical keyboard" like the smartie pants from the tech store, I cannot change it because it is a laptop.

I set my default language to UK English in MS Words but each time I open up that damn thing it shows English (US). This is pretty annoying and I need to manually change the language settings otherwise it auto corrects my realise to realize and whatever other spelling the yanks spell differently.

I removed "English (U.S.)" from the File>Options>Language>Choose Editing Language but each time I reopen MS Words I still find the software speaking yankee doodle. It seems the only way is to change the keyboard settings in regional settings, but I cannot do that as explained earlier. Is there another way to get around this inflexibility?

It seems pretty retarded to me if Microsoft did not budget for this flexibility when building their software. So I am betting that there is some unknown setting hidden somewhere deep in the yankee forest that I cannot find.

And, can I completely remove English (U.S.) from the entire system except for the keyboard layout?

Can I control sentence spacing?

Posted: 30 Jun 2014 10:37 PM PDT

Word 2007

Is there a way to define a rule for spacing between sentences (e.g., two full spaces, etc.)?

Not looking for a blind solution such as retroactive 'Replace All', but something automatically generated (perhaps on the fly or with paragraph styling)?

Ideas?

Thank you

Home Tab in Word 365

Posted: 30 Jun 2014 10:26 PM PDT

How do you make the HOME tab the default in Word 365?  Everytime I type into Word, the default tab keeps on going back to the FILE tab.  It's becoming quite annoying as I have to click the HOME tab everytime I need to modify the format, i.e. fonts, font color, paragraph etc.  

Word 2013 Document/template prints blank

Posted: 30 Jun 2014 08:33 PM PDT

Okay, so a few weeks now into Windows 8 with my new computer and have now come the closest to "sledge hammer" status/action...

Created a Word document tonight using a Word postcard template in Word 2013... Edited, changed the text, inserted some Word picture art and then went to simply print it--TO SIMPLY PRINT THE DARN THING--and it prints nothing but a blank sheet of paper...

Shows up just fine on print preview, but prints completely blank. Tried to re-create the doc, same thing. Cut/pasted it to a blank word doc--same thing. Tried to save it as a PDF file--same thing.

Test printed several other things--all printed fine. But not this postcard template/doc... Which I need to have printed by tomorrow...

So darn frustrated. If you have a solution and have managed to read/listen to this ranting, please advise...

Thanks,

SR Hammer

 

Microsoft Word Missing

Posted: 30 Jun 2014 07:56 PM PDT

I recently installed Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus.  The program updated and now all of the programs are there and working except for Word.  I tried opening Word tonight using the shortcut I had put on the Start Screen of Windows 8, and got an error message that the shortcut was no longer working.  I have searched everywhere that I can think of and cannot find Word anywhere in the programs or on the laptop.  I am new to the Windows 8 operating System and am getting rather frustrated.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance.

How to download the proofing tools for Office 2013 on windows RT?

Posted: 30 Jun 2014 07:16 PM PDT

When I am using my Suface RT's Office 2013, word always pops up the notice of "MISSING PROOF TOOLS". After the notice, there is a download button.

When I click the download button, the language settings window pops up which leads me nowhere..

I am wondering whether there is a place I can find and download the language proofing tools myself somewhere?

Thank you for the help!

Printing on 6X9 envelopes from a merged file

Posted: 30 Jun 2014 07:11 PM PDT

We're using Office 2010 and trying to print 6X9 envelopes from a merged file on HP Officejet Pro 8600.

We continue to get the mismatched error notice - even though we have changed the paper size to 6X9.

We have selected C5 envelope size each time we have gotten an envelope to print (6 printed - 341 to go) but it keeps popping back to standard letter size and then not printing but showing the error message.

What shall we do?

copy graphic gives poor quality, Word 2000

Posted: 30 Jun 2014 04:50 PM PDT

Using Word 2000, I pasted graphics into a document and they display well. I don't know how it is stored internally. If I copy the image then paste it into paint or any image processing program I have tried, it is very degraded, missing or duplicating rows and columns. The resolution of the pasted image depends on the magnification used in word to display it on the video monitor, not the source resolution. The same problem is seen when I print it, but there is no problem copping from one Word document to another. How can I get the image copied or printed with the resolution of the original?
