Help! Whenever I open Word my screen goes black

Posted: 23 Nov 2014 01:17 PM PST

Okay, so here's my problem. I'm unsure of what is causing this, so I will just start where things started to go wrong. I installed the most recent Windows Update. I don't know if that's what started this, but that's when I noticed that my laptop would keep freezing periodically. It's an old laptop, two and a half years old, so it freezes from time to time, however, I'm patient and wait for it to wake up & start going again. I didn't really think anything of it. Now, I had Word open (I'm an author, so it's almost always open), and it would freeze, then unfreeze. It froze again and the screen went black...then came back. I got a little message saying it had to recover the screen. Everything was running normal again for a few minutes, until Word froze again, this time the screen going black and not coming back. I had to do a hard restart (which I know is bad for the laptop, but I had no choice). This is when things started getting worse. I rebooted, everything looked fine, so I tried to open Word again. I got nothing but a black screen and I had to hard restart AGAIN. Now this happens whenever I open Word.

I contacted support and was told it's because my laptop has a virus, which my Norton is not finding. They did their thing & it was working for two days, until I tried to install the important update again, which I did last night. Today it started doing the same thing. This virus is supposed to be blocking the program from starting, but I don't understand what that has to do with the screen going black. I NEED Word. It's my livelihood. I can't open it without the screen going black and my laptop essentially freezing. Hard restarts are the only solution, and even then, worse than that, it's starting to freeze at the start up screen. This didn't start to happen until I did the update, but I can't recover to an earlier date because it freezes when it tries to reboot. Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know of a solution, other than "buy a new laptop" or spend $100 for Microsoft to do their thing? I don't have over $100 to fix the laptop, even then, might as well buy a new one.

Microsoft Gruber - The New Microsoft Line

Posted: 23 Nov 2014 12:25 PM PST

Well, it's finally dawned on me.  I didn't realize that the newest line of Microsoft software is actually the new Gruber line of software. 

Apparently, just like Jonathan Gruber recognized that voters are stupid to know what laws are good for them, Microsoft has embraced the belief that users are too stupid to know what's good for them. 

In accord with such belief, Microsoft now designs software to force users to use such software the way that Microsoft thinks it should be used.

After all, most users aren't geniuses from MIT.  Who cares if a dumb user wants a start button, or an on off switch which is in open view. 

Microsoft has decided that it knows better than users, and since the geniuses at Microsoft think there shouldn't be a start button, they just took it away, and figured that the dumb users will just have to deal with it.

The same goes for auto-formating features in Word.  Users are just too dumb to know how paragraphs should be formatted, indented and how lists should be created, so Microsoft chooses how, and who cares if dumb users have to waste vast amounts of time trying to stop Word from un-doing changes to a document which the user doesn't want.

Perhaps Jonathan Gruber was a consultant for Microsoft, just as he was for the government.  That would certainly explain a lot.

One thing that seems perfectly clear, apparently there are enough Gruber-Idiots at Microsoft, that we can be certain that Microsoft's Gruber software products will continue coming out, unless enough of us dumb users finally start using products other than Microsoft.

Word 2007 format and save issues

Posted: 23 Nov 2014 08:03 AM PST

This has only started happening mid way through using a document. Once saved the file is reopened and shows no text at all. I can view it in print form only but when I change to edit mode all the text disappears?

also it takes soooo long for the computer to respond to key commands it is laughable.

any advice?

i have rebooted, updated windows, tried in safe mode (word would not even launch in safe mode, error message appeared with yellow writing) to no avail.

loads of work to do and infuriating I can't find the problem.

i saved a 74 doc. Emailed it to my other laptop and it shows 2 pages, the first has text and the second is blank??

many thanks in advance

Can't get rid of white border around graphic when inserted into colored background!

Posted: 23 Nov 2014 06:57 AM PST

MS Word 2003 on Windows XP

I am working on a project that includes several pages with grey shadowing as a background.  When I try to insert a picture on one of these pages, a white border of about 12 points appears around the picture and messes up the look.

The same thing happens on certain pages that have borders around selected text.  When I insert a picture on the left or right side of the paragraph, the "imaginary" white border around the picture overlaps that side of the border so that there is a very noticeable gap.  I feel like I have tried everything to resolve this issue, but nothing has come close to working.

This Word file has to be converted to pdf to be published pretty soon, so any help would be appreciated!

Pagenumbering very odd

Posted: 23 Nov 2014 05:41 AM PST

Hi all,

I have a problem with my document which seems to show more pages than it actually has. Also, I know very little about the mysteries of MS Word, which I am about to make painfully obvious.

Namely, a friend converted a 400-page PDF file (out of 2400 pages in total) to a Word document for me.

When I opened it there were 400 pages alright. The whole document had nothing but page after page of tables with three columns.

Since the file was so big, I had to split it into smaller documents (using select, copy/paste) which were more manageable to work with, with 30-ish pages in each. Everything seemed to have remained as it was in the original file (the page numbering and all).

I then went file after file (once I finished doing what I was doing) and, by again using select all, copy/paste, added file after file to a brand new document. I guess this might be what caused the problem, that I did not have a more sophisticated approach?

So, I am not done putting all the files back together, there are roughly 50 pages left, HOWEVER, the document which should have around 350 pages so far, has 417 pages total, according to the page count! But the tables seem to have remained untouched, not at all different from the tables in the original document. There is just a single blank page at the end, but all the numbers are where they should be, although it is hard to say because the document is really big, I might be wrong. I'm already panicking that I won't be able to fix it, but I need it to have 400 pages by the end of my project, it cannot have a single page more than that.

Does anyone have an idea what could have caused this surfeit of 70 pages?

Thank you so much!

Saved Word 2013 document shows up with no changes!

Posted: 23 Nov 2014 02:14 AM PST

Hello

Yesterday, I've had a most inconvenient problem working on a task for university. I will try to explain it with as much details as I can. I'm running Word 2013 (from the Office 365 for student edition) on a Windows 7 machine.

I downloaded a template for that task from the internet platform of my university. To avoid any compatibility problems (I believe my teacher still uses Word 2007), I just kept the titles and subtitles and copy/pasted them in a new file, which I saved under a new name in a OneDrive file for that class. I'm very conscientious and keep my files ordered. Yet something strange (but not important to me) occurred: the name of my teacher still showed up alongside my name as an "Author" of the new document.

I worked all day on this document, saving it every 15-20min, as it has become a reflex when using Word. When I was finally done, I saved the document once again and quitted Word. I went to the OneDrive website to get a share link, in order to send it to someone for review. I always double-check the document before I send it. I couldn't believe what I saw in the Word-Online app: the document showed up as a version from like 10 hours earlier, almost empty! I quickly went to my OneDrive for desktop folder to open my document again; the same occurred!

These are the steps I have already undertaken, based on some research on the internet:

- Open Word 2013 and check for auto-recovery, unsaved files, temp files, ~ files,... : nothing but that version that also shows up in OneDrive

- Go to the auto-save file (user/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Office/Unsaved Files): nothing, no files that have the same date/hour of "last modification"

- Run a file search, based on title and/or date: nothing

What could be the reason for this magic? Is there any possibility to recover it? If so, how?

This document took me 12 hours to write, and the idea of having to write it again is very, very frustrating...

Thanks for reading me and for your answers!

Regards

Adrian

Pagenumbering

Posted: 23 Nov 2014 12:33 AM PST

Hi

I hope someone out there can help me with a very percular problem.  It started a fortnight ago after a word update.  I have since deleted all updates but the problem is with still with my computer.

My microsoft (word 2010) numbering system is no longer working and also has corrupted all files stored in my computer so I cannot bring an old document up and copy, paste a numbering system.

When I go into a footer and enter in a page number system instead of Page 1 of 1 etc it appears as Page {PAGE} of {NUMPAGES}.  This also happens when a document is sent to me with a page numbering system already inserted.

However, I note when I went to copy, paste the Page {PAGE} of {NUMPAGES} from a word doc to this page it came out as Page 1 of 1 !!!

I work from home and use this feature several times a day.  I would really appreciate it if someone could let me know how to correct this problem.  I have rebooted but problem has not gone away.

Thank you

Dawn

Closing down of Microsoft Word 2013 while using the paste function

Posted: 23 Nov 2014 12:08 AM PST

Dear,

I encountered an occasional problem while using Microsoft Office application (Home & Business 2013). When I copied some text and pasted onto another area in the same document, the Microsoft Word application simply closed down without any warning. When I re-opened it again, it showed the recovered file & I had to re-do the process again since it had not been saved. This also happened when I copied some text from a webpage and pasted it in my Word document. What is the possible cause of this problem and how to tackle this closing down of application issue while using the paste function?  Even if the document is in the compatibility mode, Microsoft Word 2013 should be able to handle it.  I noticed that uninstall & re-installation of the application does not help.

Thank you.

hightlighted Text's colour becomes inverted

Posted: 22 Nov 2014 11:17 PM PST

When I highlight words (not the highlighter just hold and drag) in Word 2013 the selection is black and photos become inverted. Before it was just a light grey highlight which is the same as my other computers using Word. I did install a new language pack before this started to happen.

Surface Pro 2 running 8.1

Here an example:

It highlights it black and inverse the colours instead of the default grey highlight, and I have no idea of how to change it back to grey.

Black text becomes white etc. Any way to change this back?

Can't change default thesaurus

Posted: 22 Nov 2014 09:27 PM PST

Greetings,

I actually have two problems:

  1. I can't change the default thesaurus to English (U.S.)
  2. I can't remove English (U.K.)

I can remove English (U.K.) by opening the Research pane and clicking Research options at the bottom. I clear "Thesaurus: English (U.K.)" and click OK. However, the next time I open Word, it's back again.

How can I remove English (U.K.) from the thesaurus?

Thanks,

Shane.

Bullet Does Not Appear Every Time I Press Enter

Posted: 22 Nov 2014 07:51 PM PST

Hi all,

So I am creating a simple bulleted list, and usually, you would automatically see a bullet everytime you press enter, if the line above had one as well. However, I am not getting the this new bullet. Rather, the document just resets itself to the settings it had before the bullet system. Thus,  I would have to click the "bullet-style list" button for every new line to get a bullet. Please answer ASAP!!! Bullets are kinda crucial to a college student who has to take notes...

Thank you!! :D

OneDrive not working properly

Posted: 22 Nov 2014 04:58 PM PST

Split from this thread.

This happened to me when I installed Office 365 on my laptop. Onedrive works fine on the laptop, but not on any of the other PCs - where it used to work fine before.

I had been quite happy with OneDrive, but I guess I'll be looking for another alternative as I have no intention of paying through the nose to subscribe to 365 and I think the whole idea is to force people onto 365 and subscription payments.

Go Directly to Edit Online

Posted: 22 Nov 2014 02:20 PM PST

Is there a way to have documents open directly in "Edit in (Word, PowerPoint, Excel) Online" with out having to click on "Edit Document"?  This seems a redundant step as I can, from Edit Online then choose "Edit in Word, PowerPoint, Excel" from the Online editor.  Shouldn't documents just open oin the Online Editor automatically?

Thank you!

Windows 7 word doc issue

Posted: 22 Nov 2014 01:42 PM PST

Windows 7 word doc issue. Once saved and reopened the document either is missing all content or the document reopened with 1500 pages instead of 70? Some files are now completely missing and appear faded with zero data in them. Since these issues have arisen it takes nearly 20 seconds for a command to be responded to. Eg I write a word and 20 seconds later it appears. Any advice? Updates installed, tried in safe mode and word would not even open!

MS Word 2010.

Posted: 22 Nov 2014 01:21 PM PST

Hi All.


I have recently been tasked to work out who is working on what department and on what day and times, including night working and weekend working.


So, I have created a Word doc file with six boxes across with Date, Department one, Two, Three and then Nights and Overtime boxes too, then there are the boxes below which have to have the staff members name in it to show who is working where and when, these of course correspond with the row of boxes on the left dropping down with the days of the week, such as Monday, Tuesday etc covering the seven days.


This is all fine and easy to do, but, what I would like to do is be able to lock the base template with the days of the week dropping down on the left from top to bottom, and the other boxes that have the respective departments to identify them so that none of them can be moved. (Please See Picture Below)


I would ideally then like to be able to draw small boxes and put the staff members names in which can then be locked to that small box so that I can then just drag the boxes with their names in onto the relevant departments instead of having to cut and paste their names all the time, or type them into the boxes as well.


Is there a way this can be done please?


I know Word has come a long way since it's inception, but I am hoping it can be done in Word rather than have to use Excel or something.


PS I have to work with what I have got, so buying other software programs is out of the question.

I appreciate any help or suggestions anyone has


Thanks again.


Peter.

Unable to open Word document because of end tag/start tag mismatch error

I have gone through quite a few of the previous posts on here and have not been able to fix my document.

It firstly says 'The XML data is invalid according to the schema', then says 'The name in the end tag of the element must match the element type in the start tag. Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line:2, Column: 8851972'

How can you get Management to support and fund Word/Excel training for their team

Posted: 22 Nov 2014 04:41 AM PST

Thought I'd ask this on the Microsoft Community forum.

Many places of employment refuse to send their staff on IT training for Microsoft Office products, and expect everyone to struggle on. Or, they send one person who then "passes on" parts of what they have learnt to other team members. 

The problem with the "passing on" method is that the trainee may not have understood or taken on board all that was taught to them, so any errors are compounded.

So - Imagine that you work in an office environment, but you're the only one with formal training for Microsoft Office. You recognise that other staff could be more productive (quicker - less errors) and produce more professional documents if they undertook a training course, such as European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL). The problem of being the trained individual being that one can constantly be receiving requests of "How do I" when concentrating and trying to complete own tasks.

How do you get the manager (who refuses to consider training) to recognise that they have no idea of what Word and Excel can actually do for them? And that their refusal to go on training or approve training for others is preventing the team from producing professional looking documents quickly with high productivity turnover (more work being achieved).

Would love to hear your comments

Page Layout, Landscape isn't really Landscape

Posted: 21 Nov 2014 04:43 PM PST

Two page document, when opened it is obviously Landscape but the Orientation shows it is Portrait. When changed to Landscape it narrows about 30% and is even more narrow than it would be if it were Portrait. Two of us have looked at this document and cannot figure out 1) how this could have happened in the first place and 2) how to fix it. Worst case, first thing Monday morning I will recreate the document, it will not be difficult. Has anyone else ever seen this happen before? If yes, were you able to fix it and how? This is at work where we still have Office 2007. I've tried to recreate it at home with Office 2010 but am unable to.

Show Comments is grayed out in Word 2013? Comments are always showing!

Posted: 21 Nov 2014 04:21 PM PST

Okay, so I consider myself pretty proficient in Word (and Office in general) - I even teach courses in it at a local college.

However, I have never come across this issue before - I don't know if I changed a setting or did something silly, but the Show Comments (under the Review tab --> Comments group) is grayed out.  The comments are all showing on the right margin as if Show Comments was enabled.  However, the only way I can get them to go away is by deleting all the comments.

I just started a new document to see if it was a single document issue, but the same problem exists there.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Word 2013 printer issues

Posted: 21 Nov 2014 02:31 PM PST

I have an HP CP4525 printer freezes every open program on my system any time I try to print from Word 2013. I have gone through 5 different people with HP and they have all tried various fixes, but nothing works. HP suggests' it is a 'Word' issue. I'm concerned because I have to restart my system every time I want to print a word document and this week that has been more than 6-10 times daily. Certainly that can't be a good thing.  I wish I could get by without using word, but it's a necessity. I'm at my wits end with this issue.  I run windows 7 professional on a Compaq DC5800, version 6.1, service pack 1. Should I try to load a different version of 'Word' to use outside of the other 2013 products? Any help is appreciated! Thanks for reading. 

Mail Merge problems

Posted: 21 Nov 2014 12:01 PM PST

Hello, 

I am doing a big Christmas mail out for work and mail merge is giving me some problems (or, more likely, I don't have the knowledge to use it to my full advantage). I am using a letter in Word 2013 and a recipient list in Excel 2013. I would appreciate any help or advice anyone can give on the problems I am having, which include: 

1) I've formatted my Excel columns the way they are supposed to be. There are headings on the columns, the postal code is set up as text so I don't lose zeros in the merge, I've included my province's abbreviation rather than its full name, and I've made sure that all street addresses are typed with capital letters. However, when I view my recipient list and preview the inserted address and greeting fields in my document, I notice that Word chooses to ignore my formatting. My province is its full name (not the end of the world, but annoying because it's a long name), and street addresses are showing up un-capitalized. Why is this happening and what can I do to fix it? 

2) When I ask to remove duplicates in the Edit Recipient List box, there are actually duplicates. Removing them won't be a big deal, I guess, but there are no duplicates in my Excel sheet, so why are they in Word? 

3) I want my greeting line to include ONLY my recipients' first names, not their full names. I have separate columns in Excel for both first and last name, titled FirstName and LastName (no spaces to screw it up). However, in Word, when I try to Match Fields for the greeting line I don't have the option to match with first or last name. That is to say, the drop down text boxes are there for the first and last name fields, just as they are for address and postal code and everything else you could match with. However, when you click the drop down boxes and see the list of options to match with, I only have Name. Not First Name or Last Name, just Name, which gives me their full name. Why is this happening? 

I understand that's a confusing set of questions, so I am happy to clarify as needed. Thank you in advance for any help anyone can provide :). I truly appreciate your time and effort. 

Best, 

Andrew

Inserting pictures or clip art in Word 2007

Posted: 21 Nov 2014 09:31 AM PST

I have trouble adding more clip art into my document. It already has other text boxes and clip art and when I insert more, all the others jump around and get mixed up! I always save after changing anything in it. Does it have to do with the "text wrapping" under "format"? I usually click on "square" in text wrapping and it sets it in place, but then when I add something else, everything jumps around again....very frustrating.  Any advice?

Footer moved by itself and now too high no matter what I do.

Posted: 21 Nov 2014 08:36 AM PST

Hi everyone. This site is the last resort to resolve my Microsoft problems.

I run W7, and Office 2010.

I print official one page letters, all of which have a footer with our contact details.

For reasons unknown, one day I found that the footer moved up, and now there is about 2.5 cm worth of blank space under the footer.

I have a copy of a document I printed some couple of months ago, with footer at its normal place. Opening the very same file and printing it now moves the footer up.

I read all the posts on the subject, and tried every last thing suggested, including the repair function. Nothing works to drop the footer back to where it belongs. I tried the "repair" function, rebooting, creating fresh docs, playing with the ruler, altering the margins etc.

The print preview shows the footer right at the bottom where it should be, but it does not translate to the printed document.

I would hate to have to reinstall Windows 7 (again, after I could not fix all of the bugs in Outlook), I will be most grateful for a workable suggestion.

How set up a restricted document where adding text doesn't add additional lines?

Posted: 21 Nov 2014 07:17 AM PST

I created a form, and have inserted Plain Text Content Control box so I can tab. One section requires a lot of info and it can be easily overlooked unless I put in an extra space by pressing enter. However, if I do that then restrict the document, the person entering text more than one line keeps moving the space down. I want the text entry to overtype the enters I placed. So the size of the content control box stays the same no matter how much text is entered into it.

Posted: 21 Nov 2014 02:22 AM PST

I have created a document in Word 2013 containing several macros.  When I open this document in Print Layout the form aspects of the documents lag behind the rest of the document when scrolling up and down. 

Is there a solution to this?   The hardware graphics accelerator has been disabled (which seems to be the typical solution for this problem, however this is having no affect.

Is there another way to select a column of text in Word?

Recovery of document on a Word for Ipad

Posted: 21 Nov 2014 12:19 AM PST

Does anyone know of a way to recover a document I was writing on my Word for IPad?  It was an open document, which I went out of to access my iBooks for a reference and when I went back in, the page was gone.  I had not saved it specifically (though maybe there is an auto saved version somewhere) but it looks like an update took place on the word program about the same time which I'm wondering whether it was the cause.

i had been hopping in and out of the screen for a few hours with no problems so have no idea where it has gone but will be very hard to start over again.

any advice would be really appreciated

Office in Windows Phone lacks basic features

Posted: 20 Nov 2014 09:47 PM PST

Office in Windows Phone lacks basic features as Indentation, numbered lists, bullet lists which, to my surprise, are available in OneNote. I request Microsoft to add these features in Office also. It was disappointing to see these basic features missing in Office.

find and replace variation

Posted: 20 Nov 2014 08:56 PM PST

I have an index with entries like

alligators, 121, 145

cats, 21, 56

dogs, 13, 44, 97

I do not know why some of the index lines are in bold

I can't change the styles of the entries in the text because there are over 13,000 of them.

I want to unbold the word part of the entry but not the page numbers, so I would get this:

alligators, 121, 145

cats, 21, 56

dogs, 13, 44, 97

There must be an easy way to do this but I have not found it.

How to change the direction Word prints landscape pages?

Posted: 20 Nov 2014 04:41 PM PST

I have a Microsoft Word 2013 document with both portrait & landscape pages in it (different sections). Everything prints ok, but I would like to change the orientation that my landscape pages print by 180 degrees.

The majority of my document is in portrait orientation, with a few sections that are landscape. Currently, when printed as a whole document, the landscape pages print with the "top" of the page on the right of the page (when viewed as a whole printed portrait document). When having two landscape pages side by side, it looks like I should read page 4 before page 3 due to them both having their "top" of the page on the right. This causes big problems when I have tables flowing over multiple landscape pages, as readers incorrectly think they should read page 4 before page 3.

As this is rather difficult to explain, I've attached a picture of how Word prints my document and how I'd like it to print it.

If anyone can help, it would be much appreciated!

Need help opening ms2010 documents

Posted: 20 Nov 2014 04:26 PM PST

I have been trying to open my ms2010 documents most of the day, I have used every form of help I have find except using the gmail to open them one by one because I have a lot. I installed MS 2007 today and the comparability files so that I may open up the 2010 documents, but all it opened up was a bunch of funny writing I have never seen. I hope someone can help me, I'm about at the end of my rope. I've ran my malware and did a boot-time scan with the Avast. I found virus's but not for the ms2010.

Word 2003 Envelopes

<Moved to Word 2003 forum from Windows XP Programs>

I have a two different files, each with lists of names and addresses that I use to print cards and letters using Letters and Mailings/Envelopes and Labels. The listings in each file are single spaced. When I use one of the files, the envelopes print fine. However, when I use the other file, the spacing between the lines on the envelope  is greatly increased.

Hi Bob,

It is an Excel related question. Please post it to the Excel newsgroup.

You can find the above information in the Excel 2007 Help contents > Topic "Annotate a worksheet by using comments"\"Format a

Labeling of partitions unclear

Posted: 07 Feb 2008 03:05 AM PST

Udo Huebner wrote:
 

Right :-(

At your own risk, you can use dskprobe.exe from the NT resource kit to
repair the partition table, by shuffling the entries into the desired
order. Make a copy of the sector, before writing it back. This procedure
may not work when you actually run a system from that disk, because then
the disk is locked against low-level access. Afterwards you may have to
edit boot.ini, to reflect the new numbering.

Thanks
One more thing, When sending a direct mail from the CRM it seems that:
1. I can only send a template email already prepared in advance
2. I cannot CC or BCC anyone else (let say my manager)

Is it true?

From what I've seen I must create a workflow rule in order to workaround
those 2 points...

Pb sending from Corporte Exchange to CRM Exchange

Posted: 23 Jun 2005 08:53 AM PDT

Just to clarify a little bit more:

My domain is called "Domain".
On this domain, I have the CRM platform running its dedicated Exchange
Server (CRM-EX) with CRM connector.
This domain does also host our corporate Exchange (CORP-EX) that has nothing
to do with the CRM installation (no connector, no link with the CRM).
They only share the same domain...

Now if I simulate a customer sending an email from the CORP-EX to CRM-EX it
is processed by the connector and stored as an activity but the body of the
email is empty...

I hope it's bit clearer....

Thanks
Eric

Thanks Matt,
In C:\Program File\Microsoft CRM\Server\Bin there is a file SSPCQC.bin
that has a create date of this morning... So it sure looks like this
server is continuing, for the fourth day now, to process basic BU
changes... I'm so glad that the securitydescriptor is gone in
CRM.next....

There are hundreds of thousands of records in Account, Contact,
Contract Line Items, Opportunities and Leads...

I suspect one of the issues may be that multiple changes were made,
moving bu's back and forth until they got it right... Lesson for all:
make BU or Role changes very carefully, and hopefully on Friday
afternoon...

Thanks Matt,

To link the contact to the account, is it the account id I have assigned
