Microsoft Word - Spell check issues using different language in Word 2013

Microsoft Word - Spell check issues using different language in Word 2013


Spell check issues using different language in Word 2013

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 02:26 PM PDT

Hello,

I installed Office 2013 for a user and now her spell check isn't working properly.  She does translation for the company.  So when she goes into Review > Language > Set Proofing Language and chooses Spanish (Mexico) then presses the Spell check button, it reverts back to English and shows every Spanish word as incorrectly spelled.  You click on the bottom for the language, choose the Spanish (Mexico) and it correctly identifies the word and moves onto the next one, only to switch back to English again.  She has pages of translation to do, trying to correct it one word at a time will not work for her.  We've tried making the Spanish (Mexico) as her default and it still switches back to English every time.

Tried it on Windows 7/Windows 8.  Tried it on a computer that has only ever had Office 2013, same issue.  So it isn't related to the upgrade or the OS.

Is this just a bug issue or is there a fix?

thanks!


Microsoft word does not print.

Microsoft word 2011 student edition is not printing microsoft word. All the other office (excel, power point, and outlook) print just fine. I need help. I have a MacBook Air. IT IS ONLY THE MICROSOFT WORD. I already did what support said of removing office 2011 and re-install it.

Word 2010 - VBA Code to Clear All Content Control Checkboxes

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 01:25 PM PDT

Hello,

I have been searching around quite a bit and still have not found a solution. I am looking for VBA code that will clear all Word 2010 Content Control checkboxes on a document. The document is saved as a .docm, and this is the solution that will work for us as a template will not. I already have the code to clear all of the Text Form Field areas, and I found code to clear Form Field checkboxes, but I just haven't had any luck finding code to clear Content Control checkboxes. The Content Control checkboxes are definitely what we are looking to use. 

Here is the code I found to reset Form Fields, but how can it be modified to instead clear all Content Control checkboxes?

P.S. In case it matters, there are a number of these checkboxes located within a table for design purposes.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide!

Sub setcheck()

Dim f As FormField

For Each f In ActiveDocument.FormFields

If f.Type = wdFieldFormCheckBox Then

f.CheckBox.Value = True

Exit For

End If

Next f

End Sub

Radio buttons (option buttons) group

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 12:06 PM PDT

I have a form in which the users have to answer "yes", "No", or "N/A" to each question and I was wondering if there is a way to create a group so that I don't have to insert one button each time. They only need to pick one answer so I would prefer to have radio buttons over check boxes or dropdowns.

Thank you in advanced for the help.

Copy and paste problem with Word 2007

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 11:54 AM PDT

While working on a Word 2007 document, I had a very strange problem when I tried to copy and paste a word. The problem is I copied a word in the lower case and when I pasted it somewhere else on the document, it turned into "upper case" in bold. I tried to repair MS Office 2007 but it could not carry out the repair process, i.e. could not continue after starting the repair. My PC has Win 8.1.

Thank you for your help.

Stop Save Prompt Showing Up For Macros

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 08:03 AM PDT

Here's an overview of what I'm trying to do and what I've accomplished:

A client of ours has a letterhead macro that they need to change every once in a while. What I would like to do is have one version that I can change centrally and then share with everyone else. Clients are not technology oriented so automated is a must.

What I've done:

I created a blank document, applied the required macro to the document, saved it as a .DOTM (macro-enabled template) and popped it into the %appdata%\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP folder. When I open up Word, this automatically makes the macro available and everything works properly.

The Problem:

When I go to close word, it asks me if I want to save changes to the macro .DOTM. I need this pop-up to go away so that clients aren't confused by it (trust me, they will be).

Word Merge and repeating records

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 05:07 AM PDT

I have an Excel file with 100 records. I would like to create address labels, using the Excel records, in a Word document.

I create the labels (Avery 5161) and connect the Excel file. Of course, I populate the document with the fields, so that the labels look like:

«Fname» «Lname»

«Street»

«CityStateZip»

The label to the right (second label, counting across) looks like:

«Next Record»«Fname» «Lname»

«Street»

«CityStateZip»

Each preceeding label is the same as the second. This takes up one page.

When I run the merge, though, the first page is correct; then I go to the second page. The first label on the second page is the same as the second label on the first page. The first label on the third page is the same as the second label on the second page, and so on.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you.

Full Page Images. MS standard advice doesn't work.

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 03:19 AM PDT

Per MS's standard advice, to get Word (2007) to print a full-page image (on page 1; edge to edge; disabled headers & footers) a user must set the vertical and horizontal page options  to "Page" and set the "Different first page" option in Page Layout. Simple. But "simple" doesn't work. Other advice says to set the header and footer margins to zero; but that too doesn't work. I've tried everything I can think of. Even reinstalled my printer driver; but, despite Print Preview showing the full page image as it should be, the actual print comes out with the image starting at the header margin (or, oddly enough a bit below that, and running off the bottom of the page. It is also reduced horizontally. Adding oddity to oddity, it properly ignores the footer. Why then, can't it ignore the header?

WordPad has replaced Word 2013 as the default programme

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 02:01 AM PDT

I am not a computer newbie, but this is driving me bonkers.

I helped a friend update to Windows 8.1 and to install Office 365.

All successful until we tried to copy Word (.doc) files over.  The documents suddenly appeared as WordPad documents.

When I tried to reset the default program to Office Word 2013 the Word icon does not appear in the list.

I have tried using "Open with" and Set defaults in control panel

365 seems to have installed correctly as it is possible to open all the applications seperately.

I have read through loads of threads on this issue, but noone seems to answer why the Word icon does not appear in the list..

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Edit an If statement in Word 2010 mail merge

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 12:20 AM PDT

I have an existing Word 10 mail merge document that contains a number of If statement embedded in table elements of a very small size. This makes it very difficult (impossible!) to see the full extent of the If statement and effectively edit it.

There are too many elements to make simple zooming or resizing practical.

Is there a method available that will enable me to see the full formula and edit it?

Printing labels using Microsoft Wdord 2007

Customising Templates

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 07:04 PM PDT

We have created a template in .docx. When multiple lines are entered the template works OK, however when one of the line items is at a certain length it causes the template to create extra space between that particular line item and the line item directly underneath. I'm assuming there is a simple solution, however I am unable to fix.

Pasting text from web into Word 2010 always produces numbered list

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 05:39 PM PDT

When I cut and past several paragraphs of formatted text from a web browser into a Word 2010 document, it always automatically formats it as a numbered list, unless I choose "Keep Text Only".  This happens even when the source text is not a numbered list.

I often don't want to "Keep Text Only," however -- when the source text has some words italicized, for example.

If I choose "Merge Formatting" or "Keep Source Formatting", then the I'm stuck with the numbers -- even though the original source text was not a numbered list.

I've tried changing every option I can think of (for example, in the Smart Formatting dialog, or in the other copy options), but to no avail.  Any idea why this is happening, or how to correct it?

Microsoft Office 2013 applications, not only word, always stop responding!

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 05:29 PM PDT

I recently got Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus, and everything went fine during the installation process. I tested everything and it was working fine, until I noticed that every single application - be it Powerpoint, Word, Outlook, Excel or whatnot, it always crashes within a short period of time after opening it. The error message is always the same - that is, "Microsoft (application name) has stopped working", and it gives the the options of either waiting, closing or restarting it. It has been making me lose small amounts of data every time it hangs and it is very hard to keep working like this. How can I fix this?

Edit: I have already tried disabling hardware acceleration and updating my video driver. It has not worked.

Windows/Office versions needed for Handwriting Input on Tablet

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 07:51 AM PDT

We are considering buying Surface Pro 3 tablets for our office. We have technicians collecting data (currently on paper), and our templates are in Excel, so we are looking to transition over to using the tablets for data entry. One of the things on our must-have list is to be able to use the stylus in Word and Excel (especially Excel) to handwrite in notes and have them converted to text. From what I have seen, Windows 8/8.1 with the newer versions of Office has a  "handwriting input" option as part of the onscreen keyboard. This handwriting input function - is this a part of the Windows OS or a part of Office? And which versions? There are so many versions of Windows between 8 and 8.1 and RT and many different versions of Office, I am worried we will end up with the wrong combo! I believe our IT department is going to load Windows 8.1 full (not RT) and Office 2010 on the tablets, and I am worried it won't have the handwriting input option in Word/Excel. If anyone can confirm this for me and let me know the configurations we would have to have to ensure we can use the handwriting input I would be so appreciative!!! Thanks!

The rules vary. Some OEM copies of OFFICE (Office .... NEVER Windows)

particular variant that you have. There are a couple dozen different

WinXP Pro shutdown message "End program - WMS idle"

Posted: 04 Aug 2007 04:02 PM PDT

I was able to prevent the problem by modifying the search list Desktop Search
uses to index. It was indexing all of the other profiles on the local drive
and the Windows subdirectory of his own profile. Once I excluded the other
profiles and the later folder (and it's child objects) I was able to log
off/reboot/shutdown without issue.

On a side note I noticed that Desktop Search has also started indexing
Outlook Express even though he didn't use it. Since it was installed with
the OS and he didn't need it indexed I uninstalled it. I'm not sure if it
was a catalyst as well, but I doubt it.

For a timescale line for today's date, you have more options in Microsoft

Duration of task calculated wrongly - not round up

Posted: 02 Oct 2005 11:53 PM PDT

Hi Peter,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :)

If you don't align working hours as directed in the FAQ, then, say, you have
entered a 1 day task, it will start at the 8:00 original time and not the
8.30 that you've now set up. This is because, generally, changing the
default only affects the future and not the past. Thus you will have a half
hour discrepancy which is the likely source of your decimals. You need to
re-enter the Durations to correct this.

Hope this helps - please let us know how you get on :)

I'm sorry. I guess I misunderstood your initial question. The resource
calendars will "shuffle the assignments to the day shift or the night shift"
for you. The project calendar can still be the 24 Hours calendar but using
different base calendars for the 7 resources on days and the 3 resources on
night will schedule the tasks correctly.

Hope the clarification helps.

One option is to use the Text fields and give a unique identifier/part no.

I find it is easier to use the summary project, and insert (and remove) one

Thanks for repplying.... the patches have been installed on the
server.... it is my understanding that you only need the patches if you
want to integrate with outlook... running the web based only does not
need any patches.... However, I have tried... the patches will not
install since I dont have the outlook interface....

The install will not automatically link to your OU. But you can select the
OU during CRM installation

Doubt about sales for outlook

Posted: 13 May 2005 03:18 AM PDT

Perform an IIS reset.
If you are online the changes if viewable on the server, should be available
in the SFO client. If offline in the SFO then you will need to go on line to
see these changes.
Does the web version on that same computer access the crm and effectivly see
the field changes?

Hope this helps,

Steve,

You should also check out PowerTrak from Axonom as this allows you to do
many to many relationships between Accounts and Contacts in a hierarchical
format.

You can manually place slugs into activities using the following syntax:

&object.column;

The names are case sensitive and the objects available depend on what object you
are tapped into.

Fresh install, crystal issue.

Posted: 10 May 2005 11:51 PM PDT

Shawn,

Thanks for the reply, I have tried both options and still the APS doesn't
start. I have replaced the missing tables with the ones from our database
and still does not start. Now that these tables are in there, I tried to
re-build the crystal databse. This still has an error. Would it have not
installed a part of Crystal, when the CRM install was completed, due to this
DEP stopping the crystal services?? would there be somthing that is required
that was not added due to the services not starting?

Thanks!

Microsoft Word - Multi-Level List Formatting Question

Microsoft Word - Multi-Level List Formatting Question


Multi-Level List Formatting Question

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 03:19 PM PDT

Sorry, I'm not sure if it's better to ask all my questions in one thread, or create new threads for different questions.  I figure that targeted threads will make it easier for others find answers.

So ---

I created a multi-level list using the Shauna Kelly numbered headings article.

When it comes to formatting the paragraphs for each heading, do I open up the list and format it there, or do I right-click on the heading number in the gallery and hit modify.

For example, my Heading 1, I want no number, centered, all caps and underlined.

I tried do add this formatting in the number list and it didn't work.  Then I right-clicked the Heading 1 in the gallery, clicked modify, made the changes and ..... that didn't work either.

Also, according to the article, if I need to edit the numbers and click the dropdown on multilevel list, I should see my new list style "highlighted at the bottom of the menu."  I do see the two list styles I've created at the bottom of the menu, but neither of them are highlighted.  And, (as noted in another thread), clicking on one of them does not incorporate that list style into my document.  (Which raises the question of why the user-created list styles appear on the drop-down if they can't be used for anything.)

Thank you.

How Can I Apply My List Styles To A New Document?

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 02:45 PM PDT

Last week I spent a lot of time creating a new list style, that I named "my list style." 

I want to apply it to a new document I'm creating.

I opened a new document and clicked the drop down under multilevel list menu.  Down at the bottom was my style -- I hovered over it and the pop up said "my list style".

I clicked it.

The styles and headings are not my list style.  Not even close.

Is there a way to do this? Or do I have to create my list style new for every document? 

Or do I have to use the template I started with my list style and save that as a new document?  (The documents are very different in the other formatting which is why I wanted to start from scratch).

table problem

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 01:51 PM PDT

I want to paste a table that has about 40 rows in a new document.  I changed the orientation to landscape.  I want to put some identifying information above the table like this

List of checks

When I start the document and type in List of Checks and go to  paste the table it goes into a new page.  I can't find any page break indication in the reveal formatting feature.  Does anyone know how I can accomplish this?  Boy, do I miss the reveal codes feature from Wordperfect!

Creating exceptions to Regular Expressions

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 01:06 PM PDT

Hi folks,

I have a Regular Expression that looks for errant (misplaced) periods in manuscripts and allows them to be replaced with nothing:

Find what: ([a-z])(.)( [a-z])

Replace with: \1\3

With that expression, I have to manually parse through an entire manuscript because there are exceptions to the rule:

Mr.

Mrs.

Capt.

i.e.

P.M.

Is there a way to write a macro that will run the expression without manual intervention but allow it to skip the exceptions?

Thanks,

Brian

VBA Getting color constant from inputbox

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 12:14 PM PDT

Can someone tell me why I am getting a mismatch error from this? The error is at Selection.Font.ColorIndex = oColor. Everything works fine if I put in the constant (eg wdRed) instead of oColor. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Sub RecolorChecked()

Dim cc As ContentControl
Dim rng As Range
Dim newColor, oColor As String

    newColor = InputBox("Enter one of these colors:" & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & _
    "Red, " & "Green, " & "Blue, " & "Indigo, " & "Plum, " & "Violet, " & "Orange, " & _
     "Yellow, " & "Gold, " & "Black")

      

    oColor = "Wd" & newColor


    For Each cc In ActiveDocument.ContentControls
        If cc.Type = wdContentControlCheckBox Then
            If cc.Checked = True Then
                Set rng = cc.Range
                rng.Start = rng.Start - 1

First page header disappears

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 12:02 PM PDT

Split from this thread.

Hallo

I had the same problem with a template and if I use "Show formatting symbols" the first page header disapears.

But there I find that around a paragrah sign I have Font size of 1638 and it appears at this sign as a big black 1/4 of a circle. When I remove this the document works fine.

There has been a network or file permission error. The network connection may be lost.

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 11:56 AM PDT

We have Windows 7 and Office 2010.

Some of the users in the office, as well as myself, get this error on Word documents or Excel spreadsheets that are saved to a network location.  We also have the Desktop being redirected, and files saved here also get this error.  

The initial save of the document is fine.  However, as your working in the document and saving changes, about every 2nd or 3rd save results in this error.  And if you click OK, you get a Save As dialog box - but you can just cancel on that dialog box, and then click Save again, and the changes are saved.  

The weirdest thing is that it doesn't happen to everyone.  Here's what I've tried:

Disabled all Add-ins in Word and Excel

Disabled Offline Files

Deleted/Recreated user profile

Deleted all temp files

Set up a brand new computer

I don't know if this is a network issue, and I'm not a network admin so I wouldn't even know where to begin on troubleshooting that.  This issue has been sent to our network folks, but they haven't found anything.  It can't be a permissions issue because the initial save is fine, and every other save when editing the document is fine.  

Anyone have any suggestions?

Font instability in Word 2010

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 09:04 AM PDT

I have encountered a problem that has me stumped and has also stumped my IT people.  I use Office 2010 on a cloud-based system.  The service utilizes a Citrix client.  When creating a document in Word that includes the use of italics, the program will sometimes change subsequent text to italics as well, without being told to do so.  If I highlight this text, the "Italics" button in the Ribbon does not indicate that italics is active and clicking it does not change the appearance of the text.  I can change the font back to regular typeface by dragging the mouse cursor across the text (I do not have to click anything else), but as soon as I start typing again it changes back to italics.  One other person in my office is experiencing this problem, but not everyone else is, despite the fact that we are all on the same cloud server.  We have tried disabling the Adobe add-in and rebuilding fonts, but these measures have had no effect.  I have tried saving the document as a Word 97-2003 document, a .docx document and as a .docx with compatibility document, all to no avail.  In fact, if I've changed the text to regular font and then save it to try to hold the font, the act of saving it changes the text back to italics.  This is driving me crazy.  Any ideas?

Teaching Microsoft Office

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 07:54 AM PDT

I would like to offer some basic skills classes - mainly to retirees and anyone else who may need to have a basic skill set for Microsoft Office.

I would like to offer skills training in Word, Excel, and OneNote.

Are there any certifications that would be required by Microsoft in order to teach these classes on a personal level?  My ultimate goal is to teach these classes in a clubhouse for condo associations or other various locations in my community.  Participants in the classes ideally would be bringing their own personal laptop to learn the skills, however I plan to have a small bank of laptops that will be available for those users that only have a desktop computer at their disposal.  Each computer used will have its own licensed version of Microsoft Office.

This project is in the beginning stages, and I wanted to first make sure that I would not be infringing upon any licensing regulations that are held by Microsoft in order to offer these classes.  My next step will be to check with my local jurisdictions to inquiry about any required licensing.

As a background user, I have over 20 years experience in using Microsoft products, and am currently enrolled as a degree seeking student in the IT field where I have had to take classes on the Microsoft products.

Sequence of events for Word document open

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 07:22 AM PDT

I have a series of documents that are created with an attached template that includes an AutoOpen macro.  Amongst other things the macro sets the chapter number or appendix letter of the chapter based on data that is passed into a document variable.  That chapter number is used in the sections of the document that appear in the table of contents. 

If that document is saved and then re-opened without the AutoOpen macro running (by holding down the Shift key), the document looks like it did when it was saved.  The chapter number will be present in the title and TOC.   However, if I open the document in code, even if I DisableAutoMacros(1), the chapter number is no longer present, reverting instead to template default in the TOC of 0.1, 0.2 etc.

Can anyone explain this?  Is there a way to open the document without running the AutoOpen but still have the information present?

Office programs such as Word and Excel don't work offline

I would appreciate any advice.

Mailmerged list using IncludeText won't do numbered list

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 05:14 AM PDT

I am stuck trying to get a mailmerge template numbering some inserted paragraphs successfully

I want this kind of result, where there is a variable number of paragraphs in part of the merged document: (I've used a fixed font here just to do make the indenting appear reliably):


This is a list:

    i)   Paragraph conditionally inserted from another file

   ii)   Another paragraph conditionally inserted from another file

         and this example is long enough to wrap around to illustrate

         desired first line vs hanging indent

  iii)   And a third para, and so on

I have a limited range of paragraphs to pick from, so I have set up a series of conditional mergefield / includetexts, like this sort of thing:

{ IF {MERGEFIELD} para1 = "Y" "{ INCLUDETEXT c:\\boilerplate.docx bookmark1 }<carriagereturn>

" ""}{ IF {MERGEFIELD} para2 = "Y" "{ INCLUDETEXT c:\\boilerplate.docx bookmark2 }<carriagereturn>

" ""}{ IF {MERGEFIELD} para3 = "Y" "{ INCLUDETEXT c:\\boilerplate.docx bookmark3 }<carriagereturn>
" ""}

My problem is how to do this, and achieve consecutive roman numbering against each item in the merged document.

I have tried and failed with:

 a numbered list format in the template;

 a numbered list format in the boilerplate source doc;

 (also changing the bookmarks so they include or exclude a carriage return at the end of each boilerplate paragraph);

 using { SEQ } to do the numbering (it appeared to fail by doing its numbering before the merge operation? i.e. if para1 wasn't included the first one would come out numbered (ii));

 using { LISTNUM } (I don't think it usually appeared on the merged doc);

..so I have resorted to SETting "mynum" and incrementing & printing it all conditionally.

That all works perfectly, as shown below, except now the line indenting doesn't work!  This is what I am seeing in the merged document, and no matter how I select those lines and clear or reapply formatting, I cannot get the first line - vs - hanging indent to work properly.  The first line is always starting on the hanging indent position.  I have verified there's no hidden spaces or extra characters or tabs, this is very weird:

This is a list:

         i)   Paragraph conditionally inserted from another file

         ii)  Another paragraph conditionally inserted from another

         file and this example is long enough to wrap around to

         illustrate first line indent

         iii)   And a third, and so on

If anyone can help, either with my overall approach, or revisiting some of the options I've tried & abandoned, or with my final indent problem, I'd greatly appreciate it!

Programmatically Detect Table Cell Overflow

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 04:09 AM PDT

Does anyone know of a method to programmatically test if a Word table cell is overflowing?

In the document we are programmatically creating, the Word table rows are setup by default to not break across pages. Occasionally, it occurs where there is more text data being inserted into a cell then will fit on a page. When that happens, the following will occur at the bottom of the page...

Currently, this requires a manual scanning of the document to find any occurrence of an overflow situation and then a reset of the table row property. I am wondering if this is possible to detect via VBA.

Mail Merge Label printing: Problem with data duplicating

Posted: 09 Oct 2014 03:21 AM PDT

Hi,

I have successfully merged my Excel spread sheet and formatted the labelling so it prints correctly.

However It is duplicating the names several times, but not in sequence: it re-runs the same 8 or so names several times, making what should be 6 page print-out into a 47 page print out.

Where is this error coming from?

Thanks

Document in Word 2010 automatically shut downs with a message

To All:

This is happening only to one user:  While working in documents, all of a sudden, the user receives the message

Do you want to save document __________? 

If you click Don't Save, a recent copy of the file will be temporarily available.

               Save                    Don't Save                  Cancel

The person has just a matter of seconds to either click Save or Don't Save.  If he does not select either one, Word closes the document.

Is this a memory problem?

TOC does not maintain page numbers
