| Posted: 07 Nov 2014 02:49 PM PST Hello, I am able to have my page header grab the text of my chapter title on the page where "chapter title " is the name of the "style" that I apply to my chapter titles. I want to grab all the chapter title EXCEPT its last 4 characters. That is my question, how can I do it. |

| Posted: 07 Nov 2014 10:57 AM PST I want to use up label sheets where only a few labels have been used. This is in the context of a merge mailing. I have looked on line, and studied the label set up screens, to no avail as yet. Whereas some of the online advice shows pictures of a selection window where one can ask the printing to start in a certain column and row on the lable sheet, this option does not show up in the screens I see. I have also tried leaving empty rows in the source document for the labels, but this also does not have the desired effect. I am probably missing something as plain as the nose on my face, but cannot see it. Any tips? |
| Can I get Word to warn me if a document is opened read-only? Posted: 07 Nov 2014 08:57 AM PST From time to time, when I open a Word document, it is opened read-only. I have no idea why this happens. It is fairly infrequent (3-4 times a month) and seems random. At least, I cannot see any connection with anything else that is going on. If I close the document and immediately reopen it, it is rarely read-only the second time and I can proceed.
The problem is not so much that it is opened read-only, but that I don't notice it, so I go about merrily on editing the document. When I try to save it, I get the Save As dialog. Then I have to save it under a different name, delete the old copy, and rename the new one. In addition to a being royal pain, it screws up my archive log. Is there a way that I can have Word warn me whenever a document is opened read only? If I could just get a warning, I could avoid making a lot of changes that I cannot save. If there is no setting for this, can I write a macro that runs every time a document is opened, checks for the read-only status, and puts up a MsgBix or something? If this is possible, can someone show m the necessary code and where to put it? Thanks |
| How do I have footnotes default as flush left in Word 2013 rather than indent? Posted: 07 Nov 2014 08:03 AM PST In Word 2013 the footnote defaults to indent. I've attempted to remove the indent in "manage styles" for "footnote reference" but to no avail; there is no option to remove the indent. Could someone please assist me? |
| Posted: 07 Nov 2014 07:57 AM PST I have a template that has a footer on the last page only. I have used this template to create a document that has a table. The document is 2 pages long but the footer appears on page 3. There is nothing on page 3. I have tried deleting lines and adjusting margins and checking the page breaks. I can't delete page 3 and have the footer on page 2. I am using Word 2010 |
| Form with rich text content control that does not allow carriage returns (except shift-enter) Posted: 07 Nov 2014 06:23 AM PST I have a form (a data use agreement). The form is a flowing, paragraph style, with various types of content controls within the paragraphs. For some reason, the rich content control will not allow a true carriage return (enter) but only shift-enter. My users will not know to do that. Does anyone have a fix for this? |
| Posted: 07 Nov 2014 05:13 AM PST Can someone please clarify an question regarding the interaction of Word 2007 and a Sharepoint 2010 server. When you access a Word 2007 file on SP, you can either check it out and edit, or just edit without checking out. Please clarify where the file being edited is located. When you check it out, you are asked whether you wish to use the local drafts folder - check box or not. If you don't check the local drafts box, i assume the file under edit remains on the server. The other scenario is when you elect not to check out the file. In this case, again I assume the file under edit remains on the server. So what happens in either case when the server session times out or is broken? Do you lose all your edits? I've noticed that when i've checked out a file and elect to use the local drafts folder that even if I lose server connectivity, when I close the Word file you will be asked if you wish to check in the document, if yes, then the server session is reestablished and the file is pushed back on to the server and maintains version control. The essential question is what happens to edits on an unchecked out file when the server session times out or is broken? Thanks

| Posted: 07 Nov 2014 05:01 AM PST Hello, I have a question. I want to integrate QuickParts into the UserForm. So that when the document is opened, the user will (by a pop up) be required to choose between options and Word then uses QuickParts to assemble the document based on these selections (there will be a couple in the document). For example I can choose between "Oranges" and "Bananas" and if I choose "Oranges" then the previously created QuickPart will be used to insert a table telling the user the color, origin, taste, etc. in a table format. But I don't want the option to choose in the document, but to be prompted separately in the beginning. Can someone please tell me, if that is possible and if yes how I can do that in VBA. If you think there is an easier solution, please let me know too! What would a basic line of programming for that? Thank you so much in advance!!! |

| Word and Excel - Account sign-in top right corner Posted: 07 Nov 2014 01:03 AM PST Hello, I am logged in the account, confirmed it at the PC settings /Accounts, all seems ok. However, when I use Word or Excel and see my account in the top right corner, it has a yellow exclamation mark, need to sign in. When I do, nothing really happens. Why I ask is, I need to add notes to a large Word document where lots of people are adding their comments. Their names are visible, and mine are marked as "Author". I suppose it is because the Microsoft Account login has a problem. I tried to reset the password, now the new password works ok, but the same problem remains. Please help. Any ideas how to get myself logged in to the Office 365 and work in Word and Excel with comments marked with my name? Thanks! |
| Microsoft Office 2010 Tables Question! Posted: 07 Nov 2014 12:37 AM PST I really do need help with this. I don't know if the program is corrupt or what, but I know I didn't do this myself, because when I went and opened a document that I had started a good while back, I see nothing but tables and I was wondering if you can please tell me how to get rid of them. They even appear when I open up Word 2010 for a brand new document. |
| Posted: 06 Nov 2014 10:04 PM PST When you get a message that Word has recovered a file and it asks you if you want to save the recovered files, is that always indicative that that particular file has been opened since you last used Word? Is there ever any case where you would get that message about a recovered file weeks after the problem occurred? |
| Corrupted .docx file. Word 2007. Can't open the document. Tags mismatch. Help? Posted: 06 Nov 2014 09:31 PM PST The Office Open XML file *.docx cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents. Details: The name at the end tag of the element must match the element type in the start tag. Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line: 2, Column: 3487212 Hmm, I guess I should give some background info and what I've tried so far, right? The document is in word 2007, Windows 7. Last night, I was in a hurry, and got a lot of things open. I was opening the document to do a few quick spontaneous revisions, but it was so laggy and I was late for an appointment, so I was feeling panicky and frustrated. In hindsight, it probably wasn't the best option to just force shut the PC down cause word stopped responding in the middle of opening the document. Still, while I'm no Sherlock, I knew stopping it while it's in the middle of saving the document would be bad, I didn't think stopping it while opening the document (and not really modifying the document at all, at least that was what I thought before), could have drastic consequences! The document's quite large, a few hundred words, and about 500 or so pages. It's this really big project I was doing at work, for months now really, and because it's somewhat business confidential in nature, I can't exactly share it freely, or I would've uploaded a copy. Anyway, I woke up this morning and opened it, and the error came up. By the way, the document was saved in a 2TB external hard with a few disk errors in the past, if that helps, even if I'm pretty much sure its not a problem with the hard. The error came up... and yeah. I first made a copy, which I've been trying everything on, in case I do end up making things worse. I have no previous versions of it, just a relatively very old backup. Anything less than 80% recovery would set me back weeks with a wage cut. The good news is that I was able to open the document in WordPad, managing to recover the first 287 pages (131,543 words), with no errors or data loss, and saved it in a separate file. Apparently, according to information I obtained later, MSWord tends to not open at all when it encounters an error, but Wordpad tends to stop reading the rest of the code once it encounters an error. So, naturally, I assumed (so correct me if I'm wrong), that behind a few sentences I might lose due to the error, the rest could also be salvageable. I then looked up the problem all over the internet. Read a microsoft article on troubleshooting/recovering corrupted documents (Open & Repair, Draft Mode, Creating Link, Recover text from any file converter, etc). No dice. I first saw a similar question over here, and tried to use Tony Jollan's Rebuilder, macros enabled and all. Sadly, no luck. I managed to make my first breakthrough when I found out that .docx was just a .zip file, and could be renamed as such, with the document.xml extracted and manually fixed using an XML editor (not that I knew how to do that, but I was desperate and willing to learn). So, made another copy, changed extensions, and tried to specifically extract the document.xml. I believe that it is the main body text, right? That is the only thing really necessary for me, since everything I've done so far is entirely spartan, with no fancy fonts, formatting, header/footer/notes, media objects, formulas, tables, bullet points, numbered lists, etc. All pure sans-serif text, with some Japanese Kanji thrown in. 500 pages of pure text. I then hit a snag, when WinRAR encountered an error on extracting document.xml, stating that "CRC failed in word\document.xml. The file is corrupt". So I tried to fix this using several ZIP repair programs and stuff. Nothing worked. At least not so far. So I decided to give up the manual route for the meantime and focus on readymade solutions. I came across yet another microsoft article, but this one was at least more relevant than the last. It had this auto FixMe thing. I ran it, didn't work. Apparently, as I found out later, "This fix will work for one specific tag error where there are equations and graphics in the same paragraph AND Office 2010 SP1 has not been applied." So here I am, tearing my hair out in frustration. Whew, I feel like I told you guys my life story. I guess worst case scenario, I report this to my boss, so I personally or from the company, I/we'll hire a team of professionals to deal with it. But that's not an ideal scenario. It's gonna be out of my salary either way (the company has a firm policy of 'You reap what you sow'), along with a wage cut for making such an amateurish mistake even with continuous reminders to back it up every two sentences, so I'd rather avoid that. I'm currently looking to see whether there's a way to recover a previous version of an overwritten document somehow using a third-party software or something. (I didn't have Windows Backup enabled, so no previous version on Windows). So far, no autosaved documents on MSWord AutoRecover, even though I have it enabled set to every 3 mins (or maybe I'm just not seeing it since I'm trying to look for it manually?). Or are the temporary files wiped on shutdown? I don't have 'Always save backup copy' option enabled on word either. So yeah, an auto fix, or a lengthy answer detailing what exactly I should do (from the very very basics), or a link to a site with such info, would be much appreciated. Seriously :D Please. |

| Why do some docs require me to press print on printer after selecting print Posted: 06 Nov 2014 07:47 PM PST I just started a new job and there are several letters created by others before me I have to use. None of these docs are setup as templates. They are all .doc or .docx file tyoes. Currently the company is using Word 2010. Printer is a HP deskjet. Only a few of the letters are requiring me to press the print/go button on the printer before printing will begin. Most of the docs I inherited print to this printer immediately after pressing print from within word. What is different or been set up by a previous user to cause this and how do I make it stop? |
| WORD/OFFICE 2013 MSI VS ONE-CLICK INSTALL ISSUE Posted: 06 Nov 2014 03:19 PM PST We have been using a 3rd party OCX control which will render word documents in a 'viewer' - which is basically starting components of MS word through the OLE object. This 3rd party control has been working for years without issue for literally thousands of users. A client installed Office 2015 - they have different machines. If you do the install using the MSI (local) installer everything works fine and we have no issues rendering the word document, etc. If you do the install from the MS one-click we get a failure to open the file on any/all files that we try to open using the 3rd party OCX. I've gone through every setting inside of WORD - turning on/off/etc. without any luck. I've done directory compares between the MSI and One-Click install versions - directories are the same, etc. Something (registry?) is different between how these two things are installed. the ONE thing I can visibly see is that the "one click" install - when you launch word manually - you ALWAYS get a splash screen being displayed for 1-2 seconds.... When you run the MSI version you do not get this splash screen. - and honestly it could be just that simple... Thoughts?
