Problem with call to AddTextBox() method in Word 2010

Posted: 06 Oct 2014 02:01 PM PDT

Since upgrading from Word 2007 to Word 2010, the statement below in one of our applications fails with error "OLE error code 0x80004005: Unspecified error."  Does anyone have any ideas on what might have changed or what might be missing to cause this?

Change Header Text

Word comments in File Explorer Preview Pane hinders reading. How to get rid of them?

Posted: 06 Oct 2014 12:26 PM PDT

On another Windows user account in the same PC I can see the Word content without the comments, but not in this one. This is what I see:

As far as I can reach, it doesn't matter what I change in Word, I have changed the display and options of a lot of Word files in Word, but regardless of how they are displayed, what do I do with the comments and how each file is saved, the File Explorer displays the comments in the Preview Pane.

I my older account I couldn't see it the comments either for some time, but it corrected itself suddenly after several days. It hasn't happened in this at least yet...  Does anyone know how to correct this?

Watermarks under inserted images

Office 365 print issue

Posted: 06 Oct 2014 11:40 AM PDT

I have  been using Windows 8 and 8.1 for some time and it has always worked just fine. I use an HP Officejet 400 Color as my default printer (network).  Recently, I upgraded (downgraded?) to office 365.  Now, I can generally print one page from an office program and then I can not print again unless I reboot.  I stripped Office 365 from my computer and reloaded office 2010.  Everything worked fine.  Again, I uninstalled Office 2010 and loaded office 365.  Same issue.  Just to be sure, I downloaded the newest drivers from HP and installed it to run from USB.  Same issue.

Mail Merge - is it possible to send emails with custom images?

Posted: 06 Oct 2014 11:27 AM PDT

Hi

I've looked everywhere, but can't find this exactly.

Is it possible to use Mail Merge in Word to send emails, where each email has a custom image?

I have gone through several sets of instructions, including those below. They seem to work perfectly with ordinary documents, but not when I use the mail merge wizard for email, as each email then has the same image as the first email.

I know that when making a mail merge for a letter, one can go to "edit individual documents" and refresh with F9 to make sure the images are correct, but this does not seem possible with the email option.

I have tried installing Onmerge, but have a 64 bit machine, which onmerge is incompatible with.

I have correctly sent up my excel document with the file path.

As it stands, each email needs 5 unique images, so doing this manually is going to be a nightmare. There HAS to be a way.... does anyone have any suggestions, or am I just missing something in Words' Mail Merge process? 

I found this statement: "Remove the \d switch (which stops the graphic data being stored in the document) if you want to email it." (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-word/having-major-problems-using-includepicture-for-a/5e020fe5-37e8-4491-904f-de1a2d639e47) so it must be possible. 

Could someone perhaps then give me a clear rundown of exactly what to do when merging custom images into an email?

Thank you :)

THE INSTRUCTIONS I HAVE SEEN POSTED BY PAUL, WHICH WORK PERFECTLY FOR DOCUMENTS TO BE PRINTED, BUT I AM NOT QUITE GETTING TO WORK FOR EMAIL.

To embed an image in a document via mailmerge, you need to enclose the mailmerge field in an INCLUDEPICTURE field. Depending on your data setup, a field construction like the following can be used:
{IF {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "C:\Users\My Document Path\Pictures\«Image»"} \d} {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "C:\Users\My Document Path\Pictures\«Image»"} \d}}
or
{IF {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "C:\Users\My Document Path\Pictures\{MERGEFIELD Image}"} \d} {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "C:\Users\My Document Path\Pictures\{MERGEFIELD Image}"} \d}}
After running a mailmerge coded this way, you'll have the correct, unlinked image for each record.

If the filepath for the images is held in the mailmerge data source, you could use:

{IF {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "«FilePath»\«Image»"} \d} {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "«FilePath»\«Image»"} \d}}
or
{IF {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "{MERGEFIELD FilePath}\{MERGEFIELD Image}"} \d} {INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE "{MERGEFIELD FilePath}\{MERGEFIELD Image}"} \d}}

Mail merge problems with Word 2013

Hard returns acting like soft returns

Posted: 06 Oct 2014 06:52 AM PDT

My document includes a block of paragraphs that I want spacing between; when I select them and adjust the paragraph settings I get spacing before or after the block but not within it. The paragraph symbols in this section look normal, but when I click on the end of the line the cursor appears after the paragraph symbol rather than before, and the paragraphs are condensed by backspace rather than delete. If I do this and then hit enter I can replace them with 'proper' hard returns and solve my problem, but I want to know where this problem has come from. Is this a bug or a feature I don't know about? (Note the 'don't add space' box is unchecked)

quotes key appears as left facing chevrons - word 2013 - Is this triggering special behaviour?

Posted: 06 Oct 2014 06:40 AM PDT

Hope you can help me with a curious problem - 

The opening quotes key " is somehow appearing as chevrons  « 

As a software developer I am using word to makes notes about html, asp.net and other technologies that involve mark-up code which means typing things like <%@ Control Language ="">  after doing this I notice the the quotes no longer work and I get the above chevrons. What is causing this?

This is Word specific and notepad, notepad++ etc. all behave as expected and if I open up a new word document the quotes once again appear as normal.

Is this special functionality in Word?

How do I prevent this or if this is a special mode how do I exit this mode?

(UK keyboard -  quotes shift+2 )

Hope someone can throw some light on this thank you

Update the hidden formatting marks for that section reveal (text without marks shown below)



2nd Update fiddling around with this if I hit CTRL+z (undo) that replaces the previous « and replaces it with " and the last action was autoformatting - seems that Word is doing some strange auto formatting here.... which I wish it wouldn't

Word 2013: How to insert auto-updatable data field shown in other language?

Posted: 05 Oct 2014 11:54 PM PDT

Hi everyone!

In word 2013, I got quick parts > field for codes as it was in earlier versions. Now I am wondering about other languages. My requirement is in Bengali unicode. Suppose, I insert a filed code showing 

"01 January 2013" 

And it is updatable i.e, whenever the document is open, it shows the present date. I want it to be shown as follows: 

"০১ জানুয়ারী ২০১৩" 

Here, not only the digits are changed in Bengali but also the pronunciation of the english calendar month in Bengali, often known as transliteration of English Calendar (Gregorian) month name in Bengali. 

I am ready to program like if MM = 07, then "জুলাই"... for all 12 months. But can anybody please let me know how to do that? 

Advanced thanks.

Manually insert a field code in Word 2013

Posted: 05 Oct 2014 11:44 PM PDT

I'm learning how to manually insert a field code from an instructional book.

1. They show how to use an If-Then conditional formatting, and then manually nest a code within the "Insert this" text box by pressing Ctrl+F9. But When I press Ctrl+F9, no brackets appear; (Image attached "p115 -a")

2. Similarly, in the document, when I press Alt+F9 it doesn't reveal the internal code as expected; (Image attached 'p116 -a)/

Does anyone have any suggestions why this is not working for me, please?

Could it be a setting in Word Options, ...?

Thank you,

MS Word 2013 Crashes When I Touch Screen

Posted: 05 Oct 2014 10:34 PM PDT

Hello! This is my first time posting here. I run MS Office 2013 on my laptops, one a Lenovo G500s Touch and the other a Lenovo Ideapad Flex 2 15". Both have touchscreens and Windows 8.1. Every so often--while editing a heavily-edited and infrequently-saved document on the G500s and randomly on the Flex--when I t ouch the screen to scroll elsewhere in the document for editing, Word will freeze, the pages won't scroll, and then I'm told that "Microsoft Word has stopped working" and that the computer is "searching for a solution". Inevitably, the computer fails to find one and simply reboots the computer. I've nearly lost several college essays and lengthy novels to this infuriating issue; if not for the Autorecovery files, I might have taken drastic measures long ago. How can you avoid touchscreen crashes like this in Word 2013, short of disabling the touchscreen altogether? I've gotten quite used to scrolling up and down with my fingers and would rather not need to find a new office because of this. I have installed no add-ons for MS 2013 and I doubt my few installed programs are causing the issue. Any help please? Thank you!

Disadvantages of assigning multiple resources to tasks in MSP?

Posted: 28 Sep 2005 06:31 AM PDT

Hi Emma,

There is no (major) problem with aving multiple resopurces on a task as long
as all users remember that Project nearly always handles those multiple
assignments (a resource on a task = an assignment) as if they were
independent tasks: for instance, one resouce has a day off, the other one
happily continues to work; Change the work of one assignment it will not
affect the other opne (and then indeed both assignments will have different
durations...

Everything quite logical, but sometimes so surprising that I keep on
recommending to use one assignment per task as long as utterly possible.

Hope this helps,

MS Project: Buffer time... How to?

Posted: 28 Sep 2005 03:43 AM PDT

Hi Woman in white,

Well, the only way to add buffer time (in the TOC sense of the word) is to
CHANGE THE END DATE of the project (f.i. by adding a Must Finish on
Milestone)
You can then see the buffer by task by inserting the Total Slack column.

Identifying linked-to Ghost tasks

Posted: 28 Sep 2005 02:33 AM PDT

Hi DonL,

Yes, I thought of that. However, I assumed Martin was looking for a method
of identifying tasks in the current project with external predecessors
and/or external successors, from his comment "linked-to"ghost" tasks". The
[External] field will show "yes" if a specific task is external but will not
flag if the predecessor or successor is external. Of course, it is possible
that my mind is just on a holiday :-)

Modeling task-based revenue instead of resource-based cost

Posted: 27 Sep 2005 12:39 PM PDT

Hello

I should have prefaced this with more about our business, but in a service
business revenue is definitely based on completing tasks. When we sign a new
client, we craft a project plan to match the scope and estimate the hours
necessary to achieve that scope. We can then bill and/or recognize revenue
based on hours completed and/or percent complete on a monthly basis. So our
revenue is directly and solely connected to a task's hours. Each client
could have a different rate, depending on the value of their contract and the
hours in the plan, so I can't say that Sally's rate is a flate $150 (like in
a lawyer example) because in one project it may be $150 but in another it
could be $300. And that rate is based on the project, regardless of who
completes an hour of work.

No worries on the overlay of cost info - we're not calculating cost in any
other manner or use, so it's fine. I realize it's a bit heretical but it
works!

Thanks for the help and insight.

how to change the font of all Task Notes in MS Project

So sorry. In further testing (with some much more obvious changes to font

Automatic split of a task

Posted: 27 Sep 2005 02:53 AM PDT

THX Jan, but... it's not working as I want to (I tried it before my first
post).

What I want to do in fact is the following, eg.:
- you have 1 task - T1 - for the entire day (meaning 8 hrs);
- another task - T2 (2hrs) - shows up as very urgent and now I have to add
this task in my .mpp;
- first I had my task for 8hrs during the day and now I have T1 for 4hrs,
then T2 for 2hrs, again T1 for 4hrs.

What I want to be shown automatically when I enter T2 in my plan is
something like that (sorry for my pathetic try of replacing graphics with
letters :) ):

T1 xxxx...xxxx
T2 xx

It's easy for me as a guy that plays a lot with project plans to do it, but
I don't want to put another task on my programmers to learn to work with MPP.

Menji,
Perhaps Gerard's response is the answer you were seeking but on the off
chance that you did NOT want to simply change the format of the existing
Start and Finish fields, two custom fields could be set up to show only
the Start and Finish times even though the standard Start and Finish
fields still show just the date.

In two custom text fields, use the following formulas:
Text1 = cstr(timevalue([start]))
and
Text2 = cstr(timevalue([finish])

Hi Lars,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :)

I don't think Project is for you. It is a project management scheduling
package. By definition, a project has a clearly defined start and finish,
and you have to enter tasks and assign resources before yu can see a resouce
schedule. I don't know of any other project management packa ge that will
do what you're afer. Maybe someone else knows.

Posted: 01 Aug 2007 12:01 AM PDT

I think, other than getting a proper static IP address from your ISP, your
best option is to arrange to relay your outgoing emails through you ISPs
SMTP servers. I imagine your ISP will let you do this if you're already
using their POP3 servers to receive email?

What you will need to do is change your send connector to forward all
outgoing email to a "Smart host" which will be the FQDN or IP address of
your ISP's SMTP servers.

In these days of companies seeing 80%-90% of all incoming email as spam most
companies use a lot of test to reject spam, one of these is often using a
dynamic IP address block list, as a lot of spam is sent via compromised end
user PCs that have dynamic IP addresses.

Well, you said "...as Human Resources Group" - you *can* send as a group, so
that wasn't clear.

Does this happen no matter whom the recipient?

 



Copying database files instead of using backup/restore

Posted: 31 Jul 2007 12:36 AM PDT

Hi,

The databases must be copied to the same drives\paths as on the existing
server - you can see the paths in ESM after installation - properties of the
database.

Alan,

do you have backup of the exchange mailbox that you are strugling with? Then
you can easy restore the top of the information store(BackupExec expression).

Posted: 29 Jul 2007 11:02 PM PDT

I checked the article u mentioned MF023, but this is only to change the
display of the address book in outlook.

I tried again but could not find the Group membership field... In Exchange
2000 it was very simple. Now in Exchange 2003 I cannot find the required
field group membership...I cannot go further.

Pls help if there is any other way out..

0x7da is an error in the color management module; basically the specified
color is invlaid. I can see how that would cause an issue in the rendering
enginge. It's interesting that the issue occurs here in that there is a

Compact Database

1. delete stuff.
2. Wait for deleted items retention to expire.
3. Wait for online maintenance to occur
4. wait for online defrag to complete.
5. verify the freespace in the event 1221.

Now, considering this, did you put limits in place to prevent the store from
growing to that size again? If not, it's pointless to do an offline defrag,
the store will simply grow again and your performance will degrade in the
interim. Only if you are absolutely certain that the space will not be
reused should you consider an offline defrag. Even then, only if you have
no ability to create another store (a single server standard or SBS
organization) should you consider an offline defrag. If you have the
ability to create another store, on this server or another server in the
same org, the move mailbox and dismount/delete the old store instead.
