Hi Allison,

No but you can create one.
Customize a duration field using the ProjDateDiff formula.

Can the deadline be set to match the date of another task?

Posted: 08 Nov 2005 02:46 PM PST

There is only one deadline field. How you access it is irrelevant.
Insert the column "Deadline" to see deadline cells you can paste in.

Hi,

What exactly do you mean?
Microsoft Project does not open "with a calendar"
Each Project has several calendars one of them being the project calendar
I told you how to make a calendar you make the project calendar for each new
project.
What else do you want?

Andy,
Dave is correct, Project doesn't have an "auto-assign" feature but that
functionality could be developed as a VBA macro. As long as you can
develop the assignment algorithm, the VBA code can do the rest. Granted,
this approach isn't of much use to someone new to Project, particularly
if you have no VBA experience, but it nonetheless is an option.

Deb,
I'm not sure what you mean by, "...cost resulting from the work and
duration...". Cost is not related to duration in any way. In Project
costs are either, Work x resource rate, Material units x material rate,
or Fixed Costs.

Again, without knowing the exact fields you reference (e.g. are you
looking at Baseline Cost?), it is hard to tell what is going on although
Jan's suggestion that there are separate costs on the Summary Lines is a
very real possibility.

I set up a new laptop running Windows 8.1 two days ago, and installed Office yesterday.  Word worked fine yesterday but when I try to start it today, nothing happens.  I've tried rebooting and starting Word in safe mode, and also compatibility troubleshooting, but no luck yet.  There are no error messages and I can't find any logged events or errors.

I would rather avoid uninstalling / re-installing.  Can anyone help?

Merging Documents with Endnotes

Posted: 18 Nov 2014 02:22 PM PST

Hi, all, 

I have been trying to combine several word documents using Word 2010 and am having no success.

I have seven .docx files, several of which have end notes, that I want to combine into a single document.

I wish for the end notes to appear at the end of each document with the numbers starting at 1 with each document. 

After inserting all seven documents using the 'Text from File' option, I then entered Page breaks at the end of each of the documents. After, I right-clicked on one of the Endnotes to ensure that the option for Endnotes was set to "End of section" and applied all of the document. Unfortunately, however, all of the Endnotes still appear at the end of the document. 

Could someone please explain what precisely to do and why I am having these issues? I have spen over four hours online searching for a solution and  trying new ideas. 

Thanks!

Word 2010 - Hyperlinks to a location in the same document stop working

Posted: 18 Nov 2014 01:25 PM PST

I'm a Business Analyst who documents requirements for changes to our systems. In my requirements documents I often create hyperlinks to other locations within my document. For example, in the requirements area of my document I might add a hyperlink to Business Rules or a mock up within the same document that apply to the topic I have writing about. 

I have found that the hyperlinks to locations in the same document stop working and I can't figure out how to fix them. I've Edited the hyperlink, removed and readded them. But noting works. When I click on a hyperlink I get an message "Opening <path\filename> Some files can contain viruses or otherwise......"

Most of the time I am adding a hyperlink to another section within the document, but I also will add a bookmark and then create a hyperlink to the bookmark.

I add hyperlinks by: 1)  right-clicking my mouse at the desired location which launches a list of options 2) Select hyperlink 3) Choose Place in This Document 4) select the section or bookmark and click OK.

The hyperlink will usually work after I first create it but later when I open the file they no longer work. I either get the above mentioned message or the system will display the title page instead of going to the section of the document that I want it to.

creating an IF THEN ELSE merge field that contains supporting text?

Posted: 18 Nov 2014 11:17 AM PST

I have strung together three merge fields with some supporting text:

«DEGREE_CODE1» «DEGREE_YEAR1» UB «SCHOOL1» («MAJOR1»)

When I execute the merge, it looks something like this:

BA 1976 UB School of Social Sciences (Philosophy)

However, if the fields are blank, it returns this:

  UB  ()

If the fields are blank, I'd like it to suppress the line entirely. How do I build the IF THEN ELSE statement? Or should I be doing something else? 

Thanks!

Font size variation in Windows Tech Preview compared to Windows 7

Posted: 18 Nov 2014 09:22 AM PST

I routinely use the Tahoma font in Word 2007 selecting Bold and font size 10.

I have been using this continuously in Windows 7 (ongoing project).

However, when doing exactly the same thing in Windows Technical Preview, the type is noticeably smaller even though it is the same Tahoma Bold font size 10.

Can anyone suggest a reason for this and a possibly solution.

Increasing the font size to 11 or 12 when using Word while running Technical Preview does not really work.

Please do not suggest updating to Word 2010 or 2013 as I am completely happy with my Word 2007.  I simply want an answer to my question eather than well intentioned "advice" to update

Microsoft Office 2010 does not show track changes sent via Email

Posted: 18 Nov 2014 07:25 AM PST

Hi All,

I have someone sent me an attachment of .docx file with track changes. I opened the attachment but no track change displayed. I am using Office 2010. When trying to accept the track changes anyway it says There is no Track change on that document. But the sender sent me a screenshot of the document with the track changes displayed from their end. If I forward same document to someone else, they cannot see the track change either. It looks like the only person who can see the track change is the sender. I can make track change on the same document and send it to another person, they can see the changes I made.

Please advise.

Thank you!

Tracked Changes missing

Posted: 18 Nov 2014 06:55 AM PST

Split from this thread.

I have someone sending me a Word document .docx who can see the track changes from their side. When I receive it and open it, there is no track change. None. When I click "Accept" gives me "The document contains no comments or tracked changes". If I made track changes on it and send it to another user, they can see only the changes I made, not the original that supposed to be there.

The only person who can see the track changes is the original sender. I could not see it and if I forward to another person, the could not see it either.

MS Word 2010 Freezes Every Few Minutes

Posted: 18 Nov 2014 02:53 AM PST

I have seen a lot of threads about this but no proper answers.

Just installed Office 2010, and having problems. MS Word 2010 freezes every 3-4minutes

  • It is not Autosave - firstly Autosave was set to 10minutes and the crash was far more regular (3-4mins). Also Autosave is now off and still the problem remains.
  • A reinstall of Office does not help. It is very unlikely that the core program is at fault, since it works fine on other machines in the business.
  • The document is not content rich. It is single page with one small picture (.png 300px x 175px) and text. The only formatting is a bold, centered, size 16px title.
  • There are no macros running
  • I reinstalled Office, started Word, and still the crash happens within a few minutes.
  • Started Word in Safe Mode
  • Installed latest Windows & Office updates
  • Disconnected from the network and turned off AV
  • Repairing Office

This is the EventVwr entry

The program WINWORD.EXE version 14.0.7134.5000 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Action Center control panel.
 Process ID: 1144
 Start Time: 01d00317da21c9a9
 Termination Time: 10
 Application Path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\WINWORD.EXE
 Report Id: ed49d97b-6f0b-11e4-9983-c89cdce3a539

I have seen some other posts about this, but the steps listed there (turning off AutoSave, problem Macros, for example) do not work or apply for me. 

Any help much appreciated.

Recovering Deleted Clipboard Items in MS Word 2010

Posted: 17 Nov 2014 08:27 PM PST

I lost about 13 pages of text today on the MS Word 2010 clipboard. After being prompted with the save function, when originally exiting the application, I did not save the items attached to the clipboard. I did not have the "save backup file" radio button selected in the advanced options of the application. Due to this mistake, I believe MS Word did not save the current text file to the third party file application Dropbox. There was a deleted version of the file within the recycling bin, but after recovering the file I still do not have the most recent 14 page file I was working on. Is there anyway I can recover these items from the clipboard?

Thanks

How to capitalize easily in Word 2013

Posted: 17 Nov 2014 06:32 PM PST

I've been an MS Word user since 1995, and until I purchased the 2013 version, I made extensive use of the <shift> f3 shortcut to correct capitalization when proofreading documents. This shortcut doesn't work in 2013. Why? I hate this version. Difficult to navigate and all of my favorite features are gone. I can't even get a calendar without finding a template online. Hate, hate, hate it and would rather downgrade back to 2010, but I have Windows 8.1, and the computer came with Office 2013. YUCK!!! Does anyone have a shortcut keys quick reference I can use to retrain myself to this necessary evil?

Copying and pasting - "paste" option box displays below the pasted item and hides the text that follows on the next line

Posted: 17 Nov 2014 04:17 PM PST

I'm a teacher - when I mark students papers submitted electronically in Word I insert a wingdings tick beside correct answers.  The paste options dropdown box then displays just below the tick.  This often hides the text on the line below - annoying because then I can't read it without clicking somewhere else in the document.  Is there any way to make the options box display above the pasted item so it hides text I've already marked and doesn't hide the text I'm about to read?  I don't want to get rid of the options box altogether because sometimes I need it, but moving where it displays would solve the problem.

There is no way to "lock out" select information from a Project file. If
your customer has Project installed, they will be able to view any data

One method is to save the file as a web page (File/Save As). You should

Well... a master project just has place markers for the sub-projects.
Provided the sub-project is open when you make changes in the master, it is
the sub-project that is updated. You can thus delete the sub-project from

Second 2003 server - receive but no send

Posted: 28 Nov 2007 08:31 AM PST

Hi
Well tried a reboot and tried messing with the SMTP virtual server over the
weekend, but still no joy. I am considering a reinstall. I ahve been over
every setting I can find and it all looks pretty reasonable.
Thanks for your input

Repairing a user's account

Posted: 28 Nov 2007 07:00 AM PST

No, but I did put her Exchange account in cached mode and it corrected the
issue. I was going to wait a day or so and then run the scanpst.exe on the
ost.



I was just looking to see if there's a tool that I can use to verify the
integrity of a user's account without having to play the 'cache' game.

You can't set up an auto-reply in Exchange/Outlook that's just for the
old domain. When you swap to the new domain it becomes primary and any
auto-reply gets set up for the whole account.

Public Folder replication exchange 2003

Posted: 28 Nov 2007 01:20 AM PST

tion depends on the amount of data, but if it isn't happening there
are a lot of things to check, starting with messaging connectivity between
the servers. First, the hierarchy must te, and then the content will
follow. You can monitor whether this is happening by watching the SMTP
queues, becuase public folder tion happens through messging.

Journalling on second Exchange server 20003 - Help please

Posted: 27 Nov 2007 07:43 AM PST

Hi Mark
Sorry - a badly worded question. I did not know how to ensure the mailbox I
was setting up was on the second storage group - but I gave it a bash ands
found it was a drop down box when setting up the email address.
Thanks

OK. That's going to cause problems.
 

All I can suggest is dealing with the mailbox sizes/# of items, to see if it
resolves (or even just alleviates) the problem.

Mail headers stripped in IMAP client

Posted: 21 Nov 2007 07:53 AM PST

The messages are not corrupted.

Corrupted term simply means those messages for which some header information
is not seen.

Those mesages are perfectly seen in Outlook with all the headers intact but
not in IMAP client. All the new mails delivered to this mailbox are seen
perfectly fine with all the headers.

good EX2007 administration book

Posted: 20 Nov 2007 08:15 AM PST

There are a lot of mid to advanced books out there. If you've done a
MOC course on Exchange it should be enough to get you started. Jim
McBee's, Scott Schnoll or even
http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Exchange-Server-Administrators-Consultant/dp/0735619786
will help.
www.microsoft.com/exchange is the first port of call for you though so
you know what on earth it is you're dealing with.
