Word 2013 lags, locks up, stops responding

Posted: 14 Oct 2014 01:36 PM PDT

When I am using Word 2013 it lags often. When I type a word it will be spelling out on the screen just fine, then it stops spelling out, then it will catch up to what I have typed. Very annoying. this happens even with small documents, like if I open a blank page and start typing. within a few sentences I notice it lagging.

If I try to open more than one document at at time it locks up. This happens if I try to open just two small word documents. then I have to shut it down with the "x" and I get a box that says ".... not responding". Ultra annoying.

Column Break starts a new page, not a new column

Posted: 14 Oct 2014 11:43 AM PDT

I have a document with 3 columns, and I want to end text entry about 1/3rd of the way down Column 2 and have it start again at the top of Column 3 (so, I insert a Column Break). However, the Column break is just before a Section Break (Next Page).  My new Column is now on a new page (so I have the new page for the page break, and another new page with a blinking cursor at the top of the page in the first column.)

I've tried opening the Page Layout properties for Page Setup to the Layout TAB and resetting the break there and about 4 or 5 other thing and nothing works, how do I get that 2nd Column to end and an Insertion Point at the top of Column 3 on this Page 1?

Thx!  Doug

Confirm File Format Conversion Upon Opening NOT Working

Posted: 14 Oct 2014 10:29 AM PDT

I am doing a mail merge with an MS Excel DB.  My Word doc is saved with the box checked for Confirm File Conversion Upon Opening.

The finished Word Docs are not formatted properly.  IT has worked in the past.  it has not the past couple of days.  I have unchecked, saved, re-checked and saved.  Logged in and out repeated times.  Still not formatted properly. 

I also do nto receive the multiple DB sources to chose from when I link my Wrod doc with the excel sheet. 

Something behind the scenes going on with my network possibly?  

Multi-Level Lists: How to Avoid Unwanted Re-Formatting of Paragraphs?

Posted: 14 Oct 2014 08:45 AM PDT

As noted elsewhere, I'm following Shauna Kelly's guide for creating multi-level lists for my documents:  http://shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/numbering20072010.html

One thing I've noticed is that if I change the paragraph format for one Header style, the modification automatically applies to all subsequent Header styles.  That is, if I right-click on Header 3, modify, and click bold so that all Header 3 paragraph text is bolded, all of my Header 4, Header 5, etc. texts are also bolded.  (I haven't paid enough attention to see if the prior Headers (1 & 2) also take on the new format.)  I then have to go into Header 4 to remove the bolding from the style.

I'm guessing this happens because when I defined the new style, I associated each Header style with the prior style.  Thus, Header 4 is "based on" Header 3, etc.

Is there a way to avoid this reformatting from happening?  Is it necessary that each Header style is based on the one before it?

Document Properties in Word 2013

Posted: 14 Oct 2014 08:30 AM PDT

I am a college business instructor. Word 2013 documents are the norm for submitted assignments in our courses.

I am MCAS certified and I've been using Microsoft Office for 20 years. I've searched the discussions and wikis on Microsoft .com and Office.com but cannot find an answer to this question to confirm my knowledge:

When checking the Document Properties of submitted assignments, occasionally the Author's name and the Modified by name are different. Also, the "Company" field may include different items, e.g. Microsoft or Hewlett Packard. I know there could probably be several scenarios, but in general, do these things mean:

1. Two different people worked on the document on two different computers?

2. One person used another person's computer to create the document then went to their own computer to finalize it?

3. A person has a used computer that may have not been completely wiped and reconfigured?

3. None of the above?

Appreciate your response!

missing default templates in ms word

Posted: 14 Oct 2014 07:49 AM PDT

Dear Microsoft Experts,

it seems that the MS word templates are missing (drop down choices to insert page numbers, etc.) and maybe other apps - didn't check those ones yet....  The only visible choice is to go Office.com but that is also greyed out.  The folder in Apps/localdata ...I think it is supposed to be called "Building blocks" directory is missing completely (even tried un-hiding folders from Control Panel).

I also tried reparing Office 2013 from Control Panel/Programs/Repair and also reinstalling Office 2013 from Microsoft install link provided when I purchased - all of these options have failed to restore the defaults page numbers and other default features.

My last resort is to completely un-install Office 2013 and re-install it, but I'm hoping there is an easier way as this seems pretty extreme to simply restore some templates?!

any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris.

Merging form to n Word 2007

Posted: 14 Oct 2014 07:12 AM PDT

I have a form that I filled out about a year or so ago. I am needing to send another copy of the form out, but their is a new version of the previous form. To save time I am looking for a way to copy the information from the previous form into the updated blank form. I could copy and paste the information but I would only be able to complete one line at a time, instead of the entire page. The form is roughly 27 pages long and trying to copy and paste per section takes longer than retyping the entire thing. So my question is there a way I can merge the information from the completed form onto the blank form by page or

if their is a way to make the process easier? The form is like a job application if that helps describe what it looks like.

Word 2010 Horizontal Line and Text Box Margin

Posted: 14 Oct 2014 06:57 AM PDT

Hello,

For alignment and other purposes, I have a Word 2010 horizontal line in a text box. I have already set the internal margins of the text box to zero, and everything in the Paragraph settings is set to zero. I have also adjusted what I could on the horizontal line itself. There are also no characters or paragraph marks, etc., above the line.

For reasons I don't understand, there is still some type of invisible "margin" above the line in the text box. Every time I try to make the text box small enough to only show the line, the line moves down out of view forcing me to make the text box vertically larger than I have room for on the document in order to see the line again.

How can I get the line to stay put when I (vertically) move the text box borders to make the text box smaller? (And, yes, I do need it in a text box.)

To clarify: Literally, if the line would just stay in place when I moved the text box borders vertically, then there would be enough room for the line inside the box; why does the line move from view forcing me to make the text box vertically larger than it otherwise would need to be? What invisible "force" is doing this?

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Form fields not updating when the calculation is changed in a macro

Posted: 14 Oct 2014 02:48 AM PDT

Hi All,

I have a table which by default contains 5 rows of data with a total form field at the end, the user needs the ability to add rows to this table when filling in the form.

I have written a macro to insert a new line below the last data line in the table and populate it with new form fields, the macro then modifies the expression element of the total field to include the new bookmark.  Looking at the field properties after the macro has run I would expect everything to work, however the total field is only updated when data in one of the original rows is altered and the new fields are ignored.

The code I am using is:

                                                                    

Selection.InsertRowsBelow

IntTableCountOfRows = TBL.Rows.Count
IntTableCountOfColumns = TBL.Columns.Count

For IntLoopColumns = 1 To IntTableCountOfColumns
    TBL.Cell(lRow, IntLoopColumns).Range.Select
    Set oBorder = TBL.Cell(lRow, IntLoopColumns).Borders

    If Selection.FormFields.Count > 0 Then
        StrFormFieldOLDName = Selection.FormFields(1).Name
        iType = Selection.FormFields(1).TextInput.Type
        iWidth = Selection.FormFields(1).TextInput.Width
        sFormat = Selection.FormFields(1).TextInput.Format
        bCalculate = Selection.FormFields(1).CalculateOnExit

        StrFormFieldNEWName = Construct_Newly_Created_FormField_Name(StrFormFieldOLDName)

        ' Update the total field to include the new field
        If sTotalField <> "" And IntLoopColumns = IntTableCountOfColumns Then
            ActiveDocument.FormFields(sTotalField).TextInput.Default = ActiveDocument.FormFields(sTotalField).TextInput.Default & "+" & StrFormFieldNEWName
        End If

        'TBL.Cell(lRow, IntLoopColumns).Range.Text = vbNewLine & vbNewLine

        TBL.Cell(lRow + 1, IntLoopColumns).Range.Select
        TBL.Cell(lRow + 1, IntLoopColumns).Borders = oBorder
        Selection.FormFields.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Type:=wdFieldFormTextInput

        TBL.Cell(lRow + 1, IntLoopColumns).Select
        Selection.FormFields(1).Select
        Selection.FormFields(1).Name = StrFormFieldNEWName
        Selection.FormFields(1).TextInput.EditType iType, , sFormat, True
        Selection.FormFields(1).TextInput.Width = iWidth
        Selection.FormFields(1).CalculateOnExit = bCalculate
    End If
Next IntLoopColumns

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

MS office student edition puzzle

have office student edition installed on a newly purchased Lenovo flex. This is a touch model operating windows 8

Does anyone know how to switch to the normal keyboard. Perhaps this not available in the student edition??

Get rid of blank pages from a résumé

Posted: 14 Oct 2014 12:31 AM PDT

You won't be able to delete the final paragraph marker but you can "cheat" a little! Try this:

 

1. Select the final paragraph marker (the "backwards P" mark).

2. Right click on it and choose Paragraph... from the pop-up menu.
 
3. Under the Spacing category, make sure you have 0 in Before: and After:

4. Click OK if you made any changes to the Spacing.

5. With the paragraph marker still selected: click on the little arrow in the Font Size button in the Font category and type 1 (you won't find it to select in the list).


I have tried this solution but it did not work.  Would there be another setting or option I could try to get rid of this?  I'm working on someone's Resume for them and did not create it from scratch myself but even though the text fits easily on one page, the second page will not go away. I've tried setting the spacing before and after to 0 as well as changing the font size on the last paragraph break to "1" but it still stays on the 2nd blank page.

Booklet printing in Word 2013

Posted: 13 Oct 2014 05:03 PM PDT

I have created a book that has 448 pages.  I am trying to print it using bookfold style with 16 pages per signature.  My printer is capable of manual two sided print.  I am trying to print two-up per side.  Not only does the printer not stop at 16 pages, ask me to remove the printed pages and re-insert, it prints all 448 pages (2-up) but they do not follow normal signature order.  The first 16 are okay, but then it looses its mind.

I've tried printing 16 pages at a time, but then I loose my page numbers on the bottom of each page.  Also, the only way I can print the 16 pages (it won't let me choose the pages I want to print, but wants to print the whole document) is to highlight the first 16 pages and then print.

What am I doing wrong?  This used to work with Word 2003

Word Form navigation quirk - clicking in a form field causes the screen to jump to the top of a section

Posted: 13 Oct 2014 04:28 PM PDT

Hello,

I have a long Word Form.  The form is broken into sections.

I have used a Bookmark to name the beginning of each section.

I have created a series of hyperlinks to link to the Bookmarks of the different sections.

Here are a series of steps that I regularly execute with puzzling results:

 - the form is locked

 - I Ctrl+click on a hyperlink to navigate to a specific section

 - I scroll down the page to modify the contents of a field at the bottom of the page

 - I click in a field to modify or add contents

 - the screen jumps back to the top of the section

 - the insertion point will be in the field that I clicked in, but the screen will navigate back up to the top of the section.

Does Word do this because it is navigating back to the location of the Bookmark that was used in the Hyperlink?

Is it possible to add some VBA code that will keep the screen form scrolling away from the field that was clicked in?

Thank you

Mark

microsoft word files not found/wont open

Posted: 13 Oct 2014 02:30 PM PDT

So Im using office 365 and the other day I downloaded a word document and edited it. I hit the save icon in the top left corner of the screen (the little floppy disk), exited out and came back to it a few times without a problem.

Now however when i went into microsoft office it is nowhere to be found. I have searched everywhere on my computer, my skydrive and one drive to no avail. There is a version of the file in my recent word documents that i think may be the most up to date version but whenever i click on it it asks my to sign into my colleges elearning (which I do) only for a notice to come up saying "Sorry, we coudnt open 'http://... etc".

I havent a clue where my latest version of the file might be saved and would really apprceaite any guidance on the issue.

Thanks guys!!

word error message

I have bought  a new computer and installed Microsoft Office 365. Whenever I try to open WORD it comes up with an error message. I have uninstalled , re-installed, tried all the fixes. Last night I was on the phone for almost an hour to the technical person who said it was to do with MY Epson printer and I needed to uninstall the ABBYY fine reader programme. I did this , in fact I uninstalled all the Epson drives - still no success. I have wasted another hour on this tonight and still no joy. Please does anyone have any other suggestions? 

Spell check won't check whole document.

Posted: 13 Oct 2014 01:21 PM PDT

When I am checking the spelling a document, before the spell-check is complete,  I get the message "Spell check complete. You're good to go." I have tried various things: highlighting the unchecked paragraphs; making sure that English is the default language; copying the text to another document. I get the same message. I have even changed the text, but in some gibberish, then tried checking the spelling. Same message: "Spell check complete. You're good to go." This has happened more than once. How do I ensure that the spell check is checking the entire document?

conversion to PDF from docx problem

Posted: 13 Oct 2014 10:33 AM PDT

In formatting a book, the headers for certain pages are off, causing blank pages to be added, causing page placement to shift. 

Then even though it looks fine in Word, it shifts and adds the pages when converted to PDF. I have looked and the margins and headers look okay as far as settings, but are still off in reality.

How can I fix this?

Method to easily adapt 3rd party word exports to MS Word with Linked Template for formatting

Posted: 13 Oct 2014 09:49 AM PDT

Hi,

I basically have two 3rd party applications that download a word file from their content.  When I link these downloaded word files to my MS Word template several things happen.  The numbering doubles as it maintains what I believe is the HTML numbering while MS Word auto numbers per the style.  Also some of the style formatting implements from the MS Word template but not all of it.  As it appears some of the HTML formatting would maybe be hard coded.  I really need a simple and efficient solution to manage this and would like these exports to be adjusted to once against seamlessly work with my MS Word Templates.  I'm not an expert with Macro or HTML though.  Any ideas that can help me around this?  It seems most of the macro I see for Word is to remove MS Word information to make a clean HTML.  I've not seen much in the other direction. 

Thanks

Conditional Formatting in a mail merge (Word 2010)

Posted: 13 Oct 2014 03:45 AM PDT

Hi there

I've tried to find similar answers but my request is very specific....

I have an excel sheet that I am putting into a labels mail merge where one column in the Excel has the input of either Green, Yellow, Red or Blue. (I have made the spreadsheet then auto change to the appropriate colour with conditional formatting)

I know this doesn't keep for the mail merge.... so my questions are...

1) Can I make the word document then change that field in the mail merge to the right colour i.e. make Green turn actually Green and so on.

2) If it's possible using code _I've seen people say something like this.... Changing the colours of part of it to the right colour

{ IF { MERGEFIELD Fieldname } = "Green" "{ MERGEFIELD Fieldname \*Charformat }" = "Red" "{ MERGEFIELD Fieldname \*Charformat }" = "Yellow" "{ MERGEFIELD Fieldname \*Charformat }" = "Blue" "{ MERGEFIELD Fieldname \*Charformat }""{ MERGEFIELD Fieldname \*Charformat }" }

where do I enter this code on the mail merge if that's what I need to do?.... and would I have to do it in every label.

3) If any of this is possible what I really would like to do is make the writing black and have it highlighted in the corresponding colour. Is this possible to do?

Hopefully that all makes sense and you can help me with my query :-)

Thanks :-)

Automatic file location in Word 2010

Posted: 13 Oct 2014 02:49 AM PDT

I think I may have been set an impossible task but would like clarification from others if I can...

My Admin team at School have said that in the past when they opened Word the file location was automatically inserted at the bottom of the document. They have asked me to set this up again!

I have created a Macro which with one click enables them to insert the file location, but supposedly this is not good enough, they want it to be automatic.

I then created a document template which I was going to replace with their normal.dot but I cannot seem to find a normal template in the usual location. We are in a Windows 7 domain.

They are adamant there is a way to set up word so when you open a new document the file location is embedded in a footer at the bottom. This also changes if the file is moved.

I am sceptical myself as this sounds like an almost impossible task for Word to complete.

Can anyone help?

Thank you

Change in Word 2010 Program Icon and loss of .docx file extension option

Posted: 12 Oct 2014 04:27 PM PDT

The problem is two fold - (1) Regular Word 2010 icon was replaced with white icon with DOCX text on all my word files that had a .docx extension, and (2) the .docx  file extension does not appear in the list of file extensions available to use to associate a file type to a program. I am using Windows 7- 64 bit operating system. This problem has appeared within the last 6 months. Additionally in Windows Explorer I cannot open Windows 2010 files that have a .docx extension by just double clicking on the file. I have to right click, then choose Open With and then choose Microsoft Word. If I forget and double click the file my computer appears to be searching for the file. I would expect a registry problem, but I am not that tech savvy to fix.   Any suggestions ?  Thank You

Microsoft suddenly stopped working

when I attempt to open my 2013 word or excel an error message pops up reading "Microsoft word has stopped working.. a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". But then nothing happens, no solutions or causes for the issue are explained. I've tried to troubleshoot my settings through my control panel in the "program compatibility" area and nothing works. Not only can I not create new files, I cannot access old files. This is the account I use for my job, and virtually all of my work is on word or excel so I don't know how I am supposed to work without it. Help! 

Header question

Suppose I'm on page 219 and I notice that the page header is wrong. I click on the header to fix it and the displayed page jumps to a remote section of the document - whose page number is also 219. I do not understand why this happens. It makes changing headers much harder. (Of all the many Word features I've used, I regard Headers as the most difficult.)

KB936695 Compatibility Pack Update: HELP!!! I'M CONFUSED!!!

Posted: 09 Aug 2007 02:35 PM PDT


Hi Julie,

The hotfix that is listed at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934393 is a
hotfix for Office 2007 only. It is not for the compatibility pack.

The article does seem confusing. In the section that reads "How to update
the Compatibility Pack" in method 2 it does say that 934393 can be downloaded
however this infomation is not really accurate. The patch at 934393 is to
upgrade office 2007 not the compatibilty pack. One thing that should be noted
though is that the compatibilty pack installs some of the same files that are
installed with Office 2007. So I believe what the article should say is... To
make sure that this issue is corrected either..

A. Install the updated compatibity pack if that is what you are using and
2007 is not on the box
or
B. Update Office 2007 if you have Office 2007 on the box.

In either scenerio I would expect the files Wrd12exe.exe and Wrd12cnv.dll to
be found on the box and require updating using one of the above methods.

So to recap...

If you are not using office 2007 but you are using the compatibilty pack,
make sure the updated version of the compatibility pack is installed from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=941b3470-3ae9-4aee-8f43-c6bb74cd1466

If you are using Office 2007 make sure that you install Office 2007 update

Install Home/Student 2007 - Must uninstall MS Office 97 Professional?

Thank you JoAnn and Mary. My OS is WinXP Professional (up-to-date). There
seems to be a difference of opinion as to whether my Office 97 will or will

reason not to just install 2007 and leave 97 as is.

Thank you for your help again.

Tnanks for your response. I guess that's as good a plan as any. Before I try
the Cleaner on OfficeXP and find out I can't reinstall.

If that doesn't work, then I'll try the reinstall.

LMMBLS,
It must have been earlier than anything publicly released for Project
2000 because Project 2000 acts the same way as current Project versions.
Earlier versions of Project (i.e. Project 98 and earlier didn't even
have a WBS Predecessor field). As Julie noted the WBS Predecessors and
Successors fields are information fields (i.e. calculated by Project -
not editable by the user). Are you sure you're not thinking of Unique ID
Predecessors, because that field WILL accept user input.

Diana,
I agree with Mike on the idea of creating a custom view (although maybe
you don't care if you modify the built-in version).

I will however comment on your other post about hiding a column in
Project. True, in Excel a column can be hidden by simple dragging its
vertical bars together and then separating them again to show the
column. Project does have this feature but when hiding a column in
Project, the data is not "lost", it is temporarily not viewable until
the column is added back to the view table. What cannot be hidden in
Project are the task rows. Deleting a row in Project does in fact
totally delete the information, unless of course "Edit Undo" is
performed immediately afterward.

With regard to your wish to combine closely related tasks, why not
simply modify the task description to include both parts. Don't get to
cryptic though or it won't be understandable by those who view the
PowerPoint presentation. Another thought, if you are putting together a
PowerPoint presentation you probably want a high level overview anyway.
Go ahead and create the detail schedule (one task per line) but then
include Summary Lines to capture the general idea of related groups of
subtasks. When done, collapse the schedule by double clicking the little
plus or minus box next to the Summary LInes. Then copy and paste the
resulting overview schedule for PowerPoint.

Hope this helps even more.

Microsoft Word - Mail merge placing recipients address into the senders area on envelope

Microsoft Word - Mail merge placing recipients address into the senders area on envelope


Mail merge placing recipients address into the senders area on envelope

Posted: 12 Oct 2014 01:40 PM PDT

I've just tried to set up mail merge on MS Word (2013 Office 365).  Running Windows 7.  I set up a small list of 3 people.  Went into envelope and set up the way I wanted it and saved it.  I use my own envelopes with senders address on them so I checked the box to omit.

When I try to print the envelopes, the addressee info shows up under the senders section (upper left).  Not sure what I'm doing wrong.  Help!

microsoft office professional plus 2013

Posted: 12 Oct 2014 10:30 AM PDT

I do not have a lot of computer tech knowledge. We have a home office. Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 was installed through a company that we contacted online when we were having computer issues. I think we thought we were connecting with Microsoft at the time.  They trouble shooted various issues and recommended this program to replace our home office program. Recently  when we go in to Word we have this message show up: " You have 25 days left to activate. Ensure you are connected to your corporate network to enable automatic activation. Your system administrator can help." There was an error code 0x4004F00D ( I hope I copied that correctly) I do not understand what this means. When I called the number given for technical help the responder said " who put this on your computer?" and I told them that they did. Then he connected me with someone else who apparently was the one who recommended it. He wanted  to add on some kind of security protection or the computer might stop working. I am not sure if I should trust that company now.

Problem opening .docx in Office 2013

Posted: 12 Oct 2014 10:03 AM PDT

Whenever I attempt to open a Word file with the .docx extension I get the following alert, yet the file still opens. This does not happen with .doc or .odt files.

"The was a problem sending the command to the program."

I have attempted both the local and on-line repair options to no avail. I have even reinstalled Office 2013 but the problem persists. I attempted one of the fixes from the link below but there wasn't a Compatibility tab under the properties for winword.exe.

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-word/word-2013-there-was-a-problem-sending-the-command/353d686c-43d6-478d-a2d8-0ce016641a12

Like I said, I get the error even though the file does open. It's more irritating than anything else but it only happens for Word and not Excel, Powerpoint, etc.

How do I fix this? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Style separator is hiding outline numbering without header text - shows in word, but hides when printed

Posted: 12 Oct 2014 08:43 AM PDT

I'm formatting a document that requires each paragraph to be formatted with a section number.  However, not all paragraphs have a heading, other than the section number itself.  Headers provide auto-section numbering in outline format.  When I insert a style separator between the heading and the section text, the heading number appears in word, but it does not appear when the document is printed.  Apparently, the outline number associated with the heading is inheriting the hidden format of the style separator unless there is additional text before the separator (other than the numbering).  I've tried a variety of font options and checked all of the setting options I can find but haven't been able to identify any way to get the heading numbers to print.  Very important that I find a way to fix this...please help!  I need a way to auto-number this document with outline numbering that will not require section header text to permit numbering and section text to appear on the same line.

Creating fill in form with plain text and autosum table

Posted: 12 Oct 2014 08:39 AM PDT

Using Word 2010 in Windows 7. 

I am trying to create a form that users can fill in blocks of text, and it includes a budget table. I have figured out the developer tools and protected content, and have it set to "fill in forms". The problem is that I can't get the budget table to auto-sum, and once in protected mode the users can't right click to "update formula". We tried to embed an excel file, but it's not editable once protected in the "fill in forms", and I can't select the form boxes and the excel file to set a partial exception. 

Is it just impossible to create a form with both fill in forms and a fill in budget table that auto updates it totals? 

Office not responding

Posted: 12 Oct 2014 04:36 AM PDT

I have a brand new Lenovo laptop, recently downloaded office 365 on windows 8.1. 

About four or five times over the past 3 weeks my excel or word documents have crashed - 'not responding'. 

How do I prevent this from happening? It is extremely frustrating. 

I have very very few other apps downloaded on my laptop. Having read previous threads, I don't have any of the apps that are causing problems that I know of. 

Find more than one string in word and replace with two diffrent string

Posted: 11 Oct 2014 10:12 PM PDT

Hi

I am using microsoft word 2010 installed on Windows 7.

As per my current knowledge, I know it is possible to find only one string at a time and replace same with another string in Microsoft word

Example: In given doc I can find string AA and can able to replace with 11. To find another string BB and replace with 22 again I need search once again.

My need is to find more than one string and replace same with more than one string in single search operation.

Example: In given doc I need to find AA, BB, etc and need to replace with 11, 22, etc in single "search and replace" operation.

If it is possible, then please let me know the procedure

Why does the insert tab keep crashing when I try to use it in Word in Office 2013?

Posted: 11 Oct 2014 08:03 PM PDT

I have tried again and again to use the Insert Tab, meaning the tab in the ribbon labeled Insert, and every time I do Microsoft Word crashes. I can use every other tab when I use Word. 

I have a Windows 7 computer and it is Office 365 Home. I downloaded it via a code I got for a college course. 

I get this when I click the highlighted tab:

Then it tells me to just close the program.

Word 2013 -- How do I copy a table?

Posted: 11 Oct 2014 05:12 PM PDT

In Word 2010 I can go to the top left corner, hover, and a small plus sign appears, letting me select and copy the whole table.  I can't find anything like that in 2013?  Did that feature disappear?  I used it frequently!  I know how to work around it, but it does take more time.

Wrapping to document window doesn't work the way I expected it to

Posted: 11 Oct 2014 04:49 PM PDT

  1. So what I am trying to do is view two documents side by side using the menus View > View Side by Side.
  2. I want to be able to view text from the left margin to the right margin in both documents at the same time so that I can compare them.
  3. I don't want to have to scroll across to view right or left margin of the text.
  4. I have gone to File> Option> Advanced> Show text within the document window.
  5. I am expecting to see the text in both documents wrapped within their half sized windows but this doesn't happen.
  6. I checked whether this applies with just a single document ( not using side by side view) and its the same story.
  7. I can manually fix it by dragging the right margin indicator to the left but was hoping there was an automatic process ie the text automatically wraps within the window regardless of the drag size of the window.

Multilevel list

Posted: 11 Oct 2014 03:59 PM PDT

I have to create a list like this:

1.    AMERICA

       Important: This is a public community. To protect your privacy, do not post any personal information such as your email address, phone number, product key,            password, or credit card number.

2.    EUROPE

       Important: This is a public community. To protect your privacy, do not post any personal information such as your email address, phone number, product key,            password, or credit card number.

So first level with a number and the second level nothing. I can do this with multilevel list, but problem is with the format of the text of the first level. If I apply a format font to the style, change only the format of the number and not the format of the text. How can do this? 

I hope to be clear.

Sorry my English.
