When I copy a grouped collection of objects to paste special as a picture (enhanced metafile), the resulting picture is cropped from one side

Posted: 07 Jul 2014 02:06 PM PDT

I have drawn a figure in Word 2007 combining various objects and grouped them together. Now, in order to have the grouped figure rotated, I copied it and pasted special as a picture (enhanced metafile). But, the resulting figure is cropped from the right side. What is the solution?

Clicking between Word windows shifts the page

Posted: 07 Jul 2014 11:54 AM PDT

I use two screens and often am working between Word documents opened in separate windows. When I click between the windows the page either shifts down or up. I end up losing my place and either have to scroll up or down to get back to where I left off. I swear Word didn't use to do this. This is making me crazy!! I am using Windows 7 with Word 2007. Thanks for the help!

Outer most table boarder in the footer does not display and align with the upper body boarder.

Posted: 07 Jul 2014 10:44 AM PDT

I have a A4 Word 2013 Sheet with a header, body and footer. I have a table in the header and footer. The page boarder goes from the Top header down to the beginning of the footer. Activating the footer and bringing the table boarder up to the height of the body boarder hides the table boarder in the footer. If I print the page the table boarder in the footer is missing (compare attached picture, lower right corner)?

After trying all kind of settings I could not get to show the outer most table boarder to display aligned with the upper body boarder. This looks very much like an error within word 2013. How can I make sure that the outer most table boarder is aligned with the upper boarder and make sure that it is actually displayed?

Any help would be very appreciated! Thank you.

word 2007 gone mad

Posted: 07 Jul 2014 10:29 AM PDT

Hi all, i hope someone can help because i have exhausted my limited knowledge and am about to through the pc through the window.I installed the Windows 7 upgrade and purchased the MS Office home and student 2007 (upgrade from the Vista 32 bit system, on a Dell HP2159v) back in 2009 and have had no problems until last week.

Whilst trying to design my parents 60th anniversary invitations, i experimented with a few designs and saved them to the desktop as a word 93 - 2007 document - pretty standard procedure.

When i went back to print them off for comparison the next day i was stunned to find i could not open the documents from the desktop file. The Pc honked at me and gave me an error message saying there was a problem sending the command to the program. A blank word page came up (no paper).

I could open the document if i went into the folder icon on the blank page. Only 2 out of 4 documents had saved as they had been written.

The other 2 had completely diffferent formatting and had saved in wps.

I have tried researching how to get the program back to how it was. I have run office diagnostics which does not show up a fault. Tried MS fixit tool. Re loaded the home student disc and ran a repair on word 2007

Downloaded the Dell pc support tool which does not complete its diagnostics or present the report. It does show the SMART short self test failed, whatever that is.

I have checked in the devices and printer and checked the right printer is being used. Searched online for fixes to no avail.

All of the usual fixes have had no effect and i have finally run out of ideas and patience.

If anyone out there can help i would appreciate it immensely.

I managed a work around to get at the invitations and print them off, but it is time consumming and stressful.

thanks for any help offered.

 

Can not open word document

Posted: 07 Jul 2014 08:15 AM PDT

There is insufficient memory disk space. Word cannot displayhe requested font

Print does not correspond to print preview with complex script

Posted: 07 Jul 2014 06:44 AM PDT

I have a Word document in Syriac which looks just as I want it on the Print Preview screen; but when I print it, either to my printer or to pdf, strange things happen. In particular, some whole lines become white space. Some other lines have words omitted.  Here is one page, first the Print Preview (a screen shot):

And here is the pdf (also a screen shot):

You can see that the first line is partly erased, and the second line completely erased, and the same for a line 6 lines up from the bottom. I am mystified by this and would welcome help. There are other discrepancies between preview and print too, but if I knew what was going on here, it would perhaps resolve them all.

Headings not showing in TOC if in a table

Posted: 07 Jul 2014 06:35 AM PDT

I am creating a document that is largely built of content displayed in tables (to keep spacing, etc consistent).  When I change the font to Heading 1, Heading 2, etc it changes the format of the font but does not pick up that text for the table of contents.

If I split the table and format to a Heading all is well, but it seems like an unneeded step.  Is there a way to have Word 2013 pick up Headings within a table?

Image content control & restrict editing -> conflict

Posted: 07 Jul 2014 06:31 AM PDT

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to set an Image content control on a word document with editing restriction. The image content control itself is in a TextBox.

The content control works fine, but when I try to use the restriction I've got a problem. In the restrictions tab, I choose no modification and I add an exception for my image content control for all users. As soon as I check this, the picture disappears. It wont display even when I enable the protection. The picture is still there, it's just not displayed. If I resize the picture I can see it, but when I drop the cursor it disappears again.

I really need my users to be able to see the pictures, I've searched on the Web and tried many things but I was not able to find a workaround.

I would be really pleased if someone knows a way to make it work. Thanks in advance.

Split screen bug in Word 2013?

Posted: 07 Jul 2014 04:33 AM PDT

I routinely split the screen vertically so I can see part of a document in a top pane and another part of the same document in the bottom pane.  I do this using the Alt+Ctrl+S command.  In previous versions of Word, when I did this, it would just split the document as it was shown on the screen (e.g., if page 3 is being displayed, both the top and bottom portions of the screen would still be page 3 after the split).  

Now, in Word 2013, when I split the screen, the bottom pane always returns to the very top of the document.  This is incredibly frustrating as I now how to find where I was in the bottom pane.  Is this a bug, or is it a configurable setting? 

My Microsoft Spell Checker is not working right. Not highlighting correct spellings

Posted: 07 Jul 2014 01:34 AM PDT

Hi. Whilst I love the spell check function on MS Word. I spell a word wrong, it 'underlines' it in red, I see it, go back and correct it. However, their seems to be a problem. Whilst it highlights/underlines the words I have typed wrong in red, it is only highlighting/underlining just a small fraction of the correct words (in green). Ive made sure the settings are correct (English US) but I dont no what the issue is. 

 I cant see a pattern too it. The green underlining only appears on a few words. So I get a few words in each sentence that are wrong (underlined in red) and that I need to correct, a few underlined in green which are correct and then the rest are not underlined. This is crazy. How come MS Word cant seeall the correct words but can see all the incorrect ones? Dont no how too fix this in the settings, I'm sure its simple but please help.

Cannot see font color in Word 2013

Posted: 07 Jul 2014 12:35 AM PDT

I just installed Office 365 for students, which is supposed to have Word 2013. In the previous version (Word 2007) I put a lot of font color in the document but now in Word 2013 I see none of this color. All fonts are put in the default color. How can I get my color back? 

Thanks.

Text to Speech not working in Word 2010

Posted: 06 Jul 2014 08:38 PM PDT

TTS has stopped working in my copy of 2010 Word (where I use it as a proofing tool for my books). My OS is Windows 8.1 and my computer is a Dell Inspiron 660. I've tried many of the remedies suggested via Microsoft forums, etc. including running sfc (no errors found), opening the tts "Speech Properties" control (got the "This voice cannot be played." error message), and uninstalling and reinstalling my copy of Office Home and Student 2010. Unfortunately, nothing I tried worked. I also contacted MS support and was informed by the otherwise nice tech that the problem could easily be fixed by paying a fee ($99-$149). Can't afford that right now so I said thanks but no.  Is there any method of downloading and restoring the TTS engine, specifically? I have a hunch this database has been corrupted or some such. Thanks.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that the "Speak" button in the Quick Action Toolbar stays "on" when I press it and won't turn off until I press it again. Normally, I'll select the text and press Speak. The text will be read aloud and then the button will reset itself. I have no idea if that means anything or not.

Footnotes form single character column at right of page

Posted: 06 Jul 2014 08:03 PM PDT

I'm creating a document with footnotes at the bottom of pages. Suddenly in the middle of the document the footnotes go from being normal to being a single column of characters down the right hand side of the page. I.e. they are written vertically with each character in the foot note taking up a line. Here is a screen shot of the first instance:

Can anyone give an explanation for this and an idea of how to fix it?

Thanks,

Tracking changes in windows 2013 from a document that was converted form word 2007

Posted: 06 Jul 2014 06:53 PM PDT

Hi everyone:

I have a paper that was originally written on 2007 word and was converted to word 2013 once I purchased my new computer.  I have made myself the author under options - general settings and unchecked the box that said "always use these values regardless of sign in"

I signed out of word with my Microsoft id, placed my user name as "Author", and updated my initials. When I ask to "track changes", nothing is happening.

Can someone please help?

Word 2013 is pure garbage which will want to make you throw your keyboard out of the window

Posted: 06 Jul 2014 05:02 PM PDT

Back in my college days, I loved Microsoft Word. 

I used it for virtually everything I needed reduced to type.  Letters, term papers, essays and even articles for the school newspaper were a dream to type on Word.  Recently I allowed my office to switch over from Wordperfect to Word 2013, because my new office management software would not integrate with Wordperfect.

How bad could it be, I thought.

What a complete disaster.  It's not bad enough that I have to hear my employees complain daily about how bad this program is. I have to deal with it myself.

What a piece of sh-t.  The autoformating garbage will make you want to scream the very first day you use it.  Then as you learn to deal with it, you find that the program is defective, in that it will not let you change the settings it purports to enable you to change.

For example, on Friday my office manager came in to my office, frustrated that she tried to change the layout of a document from portrait to landscape.  She went to the settings and changed "portrait" to "landscape," but word simply kept printing it out the same way, ignoring the change.

Today, I tried to revise a document, including removing the page numbers at the bottom.  I went to the settings and checked-off remove page numbers.  Word ignored it, and will not permit me to remove the page numbers.  I can't believe that I just paid for word processing software for multiple computers in my office, and it will not let us choose whether or not to have page numbers in our documents.  They must be kidding with this sh-t.

I can't believe how they have turned what used to be a great program into a complete piece of garbage.

It is so bad, that I am actually considering finding NEW office management software, just so I can get rid of Word.

If anyone is considering changing over from Wordperfect to Word, DON'T.  You will regret it!

Oh, yeah, and don't even get me started on Window's 8 a/k/a the dumbest OS ever shoved down the throats of computer users.  I'm glad I bought a single laptop computer with Windows 8 to try it out before making a decision of whether or not to load it onto all of my office computers.  Thank god.  Returned the laptop because of that piece of cr-p windows 8.    The only thing I can conclude is that whoever is now running things at Microsoft must be perpetually high on crack, or is taking bribes from Apple to cause Microsoft to pump out software that is so bad that people will switch over to Macs out of sheer frustration.

Microsoft Word 2013 BUG - titles in text boxes

Formatting paragraphs in Word 2002

Posted: 06 Jul 2014 09:43 AM PDT

I'm using Word 2002. (Just reluctantly upgraded from W97, and that's as far as I intend to go, tried 2010, waaaaay too bloated for my simple requirements.) Everything looks familiar, but there are a couple of quirks that I can't sort out.

The Format Painter does nothing. The icon is there, it even reacts when clicked on, but that's it. And searching Help for 'Format Painter' brings up a list of wholly irrelevant topics, not a mention of the Painter.

The format of a paragraph, i.e. first line indented, is not being passed on to the succeeding paragraph. Not a big deal, but an irritation.

And lastly, for now, when W97 opened a document the cursor was always positioned where it had been when last saved. This isn't happening in W2002, although SHIFT+F5 does work. I seem to remember something about an AutoOpen macro, may have been in Word 6, certainly it isn't mentioned anywhere in Help.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Unable to open Word 2010 files after doing System Restore

Posted: 06 Jul 2014 08:51 AM PDT

Original Title: msxml6.0

Did a System Restore on my Toshiba laptop (with Windows 7 Ultimate). Now, cannot open files saved in Word 2010. Indication that I must install msxml6.0.  How? Why?

  1. What is the exact error code/message when you try to open files saved in Word 2010?

"File Normal.dotm cannot be opened because of problems with file contents."

"Word cannot open existing file (Normal.dotm)"

"Changes made affect global template..."

"File could not be found..."

(Note that I had invoked System Restore.)

2. Is the issue specific to files from Word 2010?           Yes.

Is this a Microsoft clip art image on this web page?

Posted: 06 Jul 2014 12:31 AM PDT

Hi,

I came across an image online on a non-Microsoft webpage whose caption states "Microsoft clip art".  I want to use this image in a book I am writing for sale.  I understand MS clip art is royalty free but I am not certain whether this image is from the collection of MS clip art because I could not find this image while browsing through the clip art within MS word.  Can someone please look at this webpage and verify if in fact it is a part of MS clip art?.  The image is to the left about 1/3 the way down.  It is an image of an "A+" circled and written with a red marker.  If it is MS clip art then is it safe to assume that it is royalty free even though it is not part of the MS word clip art collection.

IMPORTING 13,000 + ABBREVIATIONS *INTO* MS WORD 2003 AUTOCORRECT AND/OR AUTOTEXT

i am having just an awful time trying to find a way i can take my precious 13,000 abbreviations and somehow put them into MS Word's Autocorrect and/or Autotext.  Mind you, I want to STICK the abbreviations INTO Autocorrect, NOTprint out the existing Autocorrect entries into some sort of a list.

I am at wit's end.  Could someone help?

I know this entails putting the abbreviation list into a csv excel file or something and this is fine, but if you could explain the steps explicitly, i would be most appreciative.

THANKS

PS - I heard that after 7000 entries Autocorrect doesn't always work well but I am willing to take the chance.

Word. How the morons at Microsoft make it worse with each release

Posted: 05 Jul 2014 03:50 PM PDT

Back in my college days, I loved Microsoft word. When I went into business, my office used Wordperfect, because the software we used would integrate with Wordperfect. I was recently forced to go back to Word, because Wordperfect wasn't compatible with our NEW office management software. Now that Word 2013 has been loaded onto the computers in my office, I am shocked at how Microsoft has turned a user-friendly program, into a complete pieced of ****. Aside from being frustrated myself, I am really tired of hearing my employees complaint that: (a) the program moves words, sentences, paragraphs etc, that they do not want moved, (b) the program does things they don't want, and can't stop it from doing, and (c) it puts something in a document that they can't remove. What kind of morons are running Microsoft these days? I just can't understand it. On Friday, my office manager came to me telling me she received a document which had a light tan colored comment box running down the right side of the document, and she could not eliminate the comment box. I tried and couldn't figure it out either. Finally, I had to go on the internet to find a forum where others were complaining about the same thing, and someone there told me how to fix it. Really Microsoft? Was this part of the program created by the same imbecile who thought hiding the power-off function and calling it a "charm" was intelligent? How about this, why couldn't you just have the cute little "x" box on the upper right corner, to close the comment box. Just as we've been able to close windows boxes for years. How about the .8 "space" it now adds after each line, irrespective of whether you manually choose your sentence spacing to be single-space or otherwise. Really? what jerk came up with that one. I am amazed. It is as if the idiots at Microsoft are actually trying to make the program more difficult to use. At this point I have lost all hope for Microsoft. I just hope Corel makes a comeback. If my office management software would word with Wordperfect, I'd switch in a heartbeat.

Amen. It's gotten considerably better with more recent Linux distributions:
there's plenty of hardware that operates fine under, say, the current
Knoppix or Fedora Core 5 that hasn't a hope in heck of operating under
RedHat 6.x, which I've seen someone insist on using last year.

Then you haven't looked into SSH. SSH does forward and reverse DNS lookups,
to verify that the host claiming to be "sshclient.whatever.com" and which is
permitted to do key-based or host-based access is really, really the host
expected, and so that connections can be logged with the appropriate
hostname so you can tell where someone was connecting from. This is
especially useful in dynamic DNS setups, like Windows machines in Active
Directory and Linux boxes that register their hostnames in active DNS, so
that connections from "mylaptop.whatever.com" are listed as actually coming
from that hostname, not just the DNS.

You can't rely on that in /etc/hosts: /etc/hosts is a serious legacy of when
DNS was awkward and painful to set up, and it was easier to simply publish
an /etc/hosts for your local network than to use a DNS server. These days,
it's easy to run an internal DNS server that handles this sort of thing for
you and avoids the conflicts. It's often done by using "views", that provide
one set of A records for internal use and another set for external or DMZ
use.

Related to above. I'm very fond of setting up a good DHCP, PXE, kickstart or

monitor system states, MRTG to monitor traffic, and local configurations as
necessary.
 

Depends on what you want to do. I like Torque, available at

I actually wrote and published RPM's for it, some time ago, at an old

License removal from non existent AD account

Posted: 01 Mar 2005 02:08 PM PST

There is a much easier way, though it is unsupported, but if you have a lot of
users, definately worth it.

The table you are interetsed in is the SystemUserLicenses table. You also eed
to look at SystemUserbase to see what the SystemUserId is for the user in
question. Then, delete the corresponding row(s) from SystemUserLicenses for
that same SysstemUserId value.

Make sure to backup your database first though, just in case. In fact, a simple
copy of the table you are modifying should suffice.

Yes, I had this same issue happen. Here is the fix that I
received from Microsoft CRM Support:

You will need your CRM license key


You will need to be able to log into the domain and into
Microsoft CRM as a user with System Administrator
privileges.

1. Exit all users from Microsoft CRM - I'd suggest doing
this after hours.

2. Remove the license from your deployment. This is done
on the CRM Server.
a. In Deployment Manager (Start, Programs, Microsoft CRM,
Deployment Manager), expand the License Manager node on
the left side of the window.
b. Highlight the organization name. The right side of the
window should display your License Type, the number of
users and your License Key. Print this e-mail so you can
type the License Key in a later step.
c. Right-click the entry that has this information and
choose Delete License from the context menu.

3. Add the license back in the same window.
a. Right-click the blank area in the window and choose
New, License.
b. Type your license key in the License Key field, then
finish the wizard by clicking Next and Finish.

4. In Microsoft CRM, add the license back to the existing
users.
a. Launch Microsoft CRM as a user with System
Administrator privileges.
b. Click the Settings side tab on the Home Page, then
click Business Unit Settings, then click Users.
c. For every user (one at a time), open the User record,
click the Licenses side tab, then click Manage Licenses,
and add the Sales Standard license to each user.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

We recommend that you do not delete CRM Users out of
Active Directory before reassigning their records and
taking their CRM License away. Adding the User back into
AD creates a new Security ID (SID) for the user, which
does not match the SID associated with the existing CRM
User (even though they might have the same login
information). The system is looking for the old SID in AD
when attempting to remove the license.

 
from a user who is 
associated AD user 
license. Please 
single object 

Eliminating side tabs

Posted: 01 Mar 2005 11:03 AM PST

This method works well for the side tabs but there is no way to remove the
contract related fields from the Case form.

Form Customisation

Posted: 01 Mar 2005 08:09 AM PST

Yes I published the changes in deployment manager, however even if I make
customisations to the form only e.g. add values to a picklist on the form and
then save the customisation it still does not appear in the useable form.

Am I correct in thinking that once I save the changes in the customisation
tool then following a IISRESET the form should be available to use ?

Sean, thanks for the reply. That is what I thought, it describe what data is

the account id for that account to the custom case report which show cases
attached to that particular account. I have created the crystal report which
show all cases, then I added parameter to receive accountid. So basically it
should be something like this:

Is there a list of all available promptex?

While it does costs more, it is extrememly powerful.

CRM Mobile + Certificates

Posted: 27 Feb 2005 08:21 PM PST

Nathan:

Are your certificates issued by your internal certificate server? If so make
sure that the names assigned to your certs are the ones you are trying to
use with the configuration.

This device registration error can also occur if the SQL server is located
on another server from CRM but the services are running under the local
system account. If that is your configuration let me know and I can post how
to set this up. Also check the two services related to CRM mobile (sorry
cannot remember their names) to see if they are running.

Custom entities

Posted: 27 Feb 2005 06:21 PM PST

we all been new to crm at some point :-)

ok when you launch a custom web app from say an account form, the custom
code can get the ID of the account object. so using this you have a link to
use to connect your new data in your new database back to the crm account

now creating workflows against the new entity :-)

well that would be a trick....i know it is possible to extend the workflow
engine using the sdk but believe you are looking to some major development
to do this. Currently I do not think this is possible although if anyone
knows different I am sure they will jump in :-)

If I try to Access Information via the Webinterface
It gives me a Sercurity Error.

If I want to open Deployment Manager.
I get an Error "CRM system Admin privileges are required to use Deployment

The only way I can get CRM back is to reInstalled it

Why is this ?
