TABLES DRIVING ME MAD IN DISSERTATION!!!

Posted: 29 Nov 2014 01:58 PM PST

I like to think that I am good in Word, and I really understand how to use tables/format them etc.  HOWEVER,  I seem to be completely unable to lock a table in one place and get the text to flow round it.  HELP!  I am in the last week before hand in!!

How do I put everything on one page into one frame?

Posted: 29 Nov 2014 11:39 AM PST

<Moved from Windows 7 / Programs>

I have this form that I've created with both Word 2007 and Excel 2007. I would like to put the whole page into one frame, including an actual frame. Is it possible to do this? What it boils down to is I need to wrap an box around the whole page. I drew the square and tried to put it around my work but it wouldn't go to back. What am I missing? What do I need to do?  Thanks!!

Word 2010 ~ Formatting Zip+4 Code in a MERGE FIELD

Posted: 29 Nov 2014 10:42 AM PST

Hello:

I need help with the following code so the the last 4 #'s of the zip code do not show. Here's the code to use for zip+4 for those who want the zip=4 format. How would I treak this code so that the zip code is 5 digits, i.e. 90079:

{ IF { =ABS ( { MERGEFIELD PostalCode \# "####'-'#####" } ) } <> { MERGEFIELD PostalCode } { MERGEFIELD PostalCode \# "#####'-'####" } { MERGEFIELD PostalCode } } 

Word/excel converter

Posted: 29 Nov 2014 10:09 AM PST

Dear All,

I am using the default Windows converters [wordconv.exe, excelcnv.exe, ppcnv.exe] for converting old doc,xls,ppt format files to docx,xlsx,pptx [Xml formats]. This conversion tools works fine in my windows 7 PC. But when I execute the same command in a windows 2008 Server, the conversion is not happening. I'm not even getting any error messages or error logs. 

This is the command I'm using for doc--> docx conversion:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12\wordconv.exe" -oice -nme "input.doc" "output.docx"

This is the command I'm using for xls--> xlsx conversion: 

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12\wordconv.exe" -oice "input.xls" "output.xlsx"

Both are running on 64bit Operating System only. Someone help. Any suggestion would be helpful. Is there any pre-requisite software needed which will be available in windows 7 by default but not in 2008 servers?

Please do let me know if you need more information.

Thanks,

Paul

Draft View has gone wonky

Posted: 29 Nov 2014 09:53 AM PST

OK... so I am a freelance publishing subeditor and to work on documents I use Office 365 with Dragon Naturally Speaking 12. So far I have found this to be a very good combination.

However... this morning I was dictating text into my computer using Word when Dragon misheard something I was dictating, believing it to be the command "Draft View".

I always work in draft view anyway, so I was already in draft view, so the command should have had no effect. However, what actually happened was that the various text styles used in the documents I edit no longer appear in Draft view. Instead, all of the text is in a font which looks like Courier. Doubleand triple carriage returns have all been replaced with single carriage returns; in short, the formatting on the document is FUBAR.

But when I view the documents in print view, outline view, read mode etc, they look fine. And when I open the documents in my laptop, which runs Word 2007, everything is fine in draft view.

I have 'repaired' Office 365 using the control panel and I have uninstalled the programme and then re-installed it and yet the problem persists.

Can anyone tell me: WTF has caused this and how can I remedy it?

Thanks in advance,

Matt

Afrikaans Proofing Tools for Office 2010

Is an Afrikaans proofing tool available for Office 2010 (Version 14.0.4760.1000 (32 bit). No service packs are installed

PLEASE NOTE: I do not want to change the interface language; it must stay English. I only need an Afrikaans spell checker.

Problems when trying to open a Word document

Posted: 29 Nov 2014 04:59 AM PST

Hello,

Has anyone out there encountered the following problem: I cannot open an existing Word document by simply double-clicking on the icon of the document on e.g. the desktop or in the Explorer tree structure. Instead I have to first open the program Word and then open the document from the menu bar on top within Word.

List format question

Posted: 29 Nov 2014 12:38 AM PST

Here is my question:

In one of cases I need to type, the draft looks like:

1.    Answer the following questions and

       you need to ...

       (a)   What is the name of ...

       (b)   What is the value of ...

2.    (a)   Compare X and Y ...

       (b)   State your ...

I have no problem for the first part for 1, and 1-(a), 1-(b) etc. But I cannot make the second part since I cannot find a way to have 2 and 2-(a) appear on the same line. Is there is a quick solution. 

Thank you!

Mail merge Word Excel, Could not find installable ISAM

Posted: 28 Nov 2014 10:28 PM PST

Hi there,

I am trying to do a Mail Merge using a Word document and an Excel database. When I try to open the Excel file I get the error message 'Could not find installable ISAM'.

There ar some threads about this error message. Some about a connection string, some about file locations. Since I don't use a connection string, that seems not to be the answer but I do have some worries about the file locations or the registry entry.

On my system the Msexcl40.dll is located in C:\Windows\SysWOW64 and in C:\Windows\WinSxS\x86_microsoft-windows-m..components-jetexcel_31bf3856ad364e35_6.3.9600.16384_none_b2ae6f155dd6aa86.

The register key to JET is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Jet\4.0\Engines\Excel

So everything seems to be there, but it does not work.

Using Word/Excel from Office 2013 Professional Plus 2013 32-bit

Any ideas??

VBA to detect rotation of inline shape

Posted: 28 Nov 2014 06:09 PM PST

It's only been recently (since 2007?) that Word has allowed us rotate inline shapes. I'm looking for a way for a macro to detect whether such a shape has been rotated; but apparently there's no .Rotation property for the InlineShape object. Any ideas for a way around that (in Word 2010)?

If it helps, the rotation is always either 0 or 90 degrees, so a Boolean function would suffice (that is, there's no need to detect the amount). Unfortunately the shapes are not all of the same aspect ratio or this would obviously be simple.

Thanks for any clues.

How to find a file you saved over.

Posted: 28 Nov 2014 04:33 PM PST

I finished typing a document in Microsoft word 2013. I then decided to transfer it to my usb drive. I thought that I was moving the new version (from my computer)) to save over the the old version (on the flash drive) but I did the opposite. So then I had an old file (from my usb) on my computer. I tried to reverse it by right clicking the undo copy button, but it just deleted the file. Now I cant find the file that I accidentally saved over either. I have windows 8 by the way.

I have to be honest with you, up until I got my new computer this year I was

don't do a lot of customizing so I was content to install and run with

XP-Professional Office install over Vista Office trial version

Posted: 30 Dec 2007 04:09 PM PST

I'd wait. It's one thing if you *need* Office 2007 for some reason but if
you don't, hang in there for a while. You need to be a bit conservative with
software upgrades sometimes. My employer isn't going to upgrade but but I've
volunteered to be a guinea pig if they want to roll it out slowly. They said
it could be a while so I'll continue "practicing" at home so that I can be
ready to hit the ground running when they finally decide to make the change.

Office Professional 2007 registration failure

Posted: 27 Dec 2007 10:18 PM PST

Actually, the way they are using the software - three people, they would be
violating the EULA if it was installed on the second machine as the second
install is "to be used by the primary person on both devices" (my quotes.)
They would need to purchase 2 more licenses to be "legal."

From MS EULA for Office 2007 Pro -

2.INSTALLATION AND USE RIGHTS. Before you use the software under a license,
you must assign that license to one device. That device is the "licensed
device." A hardware partition or blade is considered to be a separate
device.

a.Licensed Device. You may install and use one copy of the software on the
licensed device.
b.Portable Device. You may install another copy on a portable device for use
by the single primary user of the licensed device.

You have a digital locker if you have ever d/l'd anything from Microsoft's
website(s). You can go there and re-d/l whatever software you purchased or
d/l'd from MS. After you SAVE a copy of the software, you can create an image
file of the install package and burn it, effectively giving you a CD to use
for a repair or whatever else you may need to do.

BIG PROBLEM : MYSQL MAYBE

-------------------------------------------------------------

We are receiving many connections.
People come to us to view 1 image or text + 1 PHP content. Some other
people come to destroy.

Tasks to our servers :

1. Do we have to give the image ? = MYSQL Querry
2. Give the Image = Brandwidth
3. Give the text-content = PHP
4. Can you click on the image = MYSQL

Our web pages are displaid too slowly, like if we had an enormous
traffic.

We try to yze and modify DB Querries and Web codes.

yzing modifications, it appears that in a web page, inserting :

MYSQL (SELECT two fieds in T1 crossed with two fields in T2) is not
consuming a lot of CPU for the MYSQL process BUT is consuming a lot of
CPU for the HTTPD process. Maybe bc of the time to get results.


What are the leveraged actions to embeed the speed of the web pages ?

1. Minimize requests to MYSQL
2. Minimize PHP readen content (e.g.
while(isset($_COOKIE['$j'."$i"]) ....)

Many thanks for any advices from your knowledge and experience.

Learn to recompile your own kernel. Learn to add a new kernel file to
your GRUB boot loader configuration. Learn how to select which kernel
you are booting in the GRUB menu. Then you will be eligible for one of
the 98 different patch files I have available based on kernel version at:

Or see if your repository source for package updates has a new kernel

Thanks for another helpful reply. Now I understand why the command ran
in batches of ~1750 mp3s.
 

You're probably right. I'm going to let it get all the way through in
batches and see what the results sound like. Most of the batches end
halfway through an album, which should provide some continuity anyway.
If I end up with some particularly loud or quiet I can always run
mp3gain again on those individual tracks.

It's taking about 2.5 hours to process each batch (2 hours to yse,
..5 to rewrite them), so it hasn't finished yet. I run the server
headless so need to find another PC I can log in from and leave
running for ~17 hours for it to complete. I'm not aware of a way to
let the process continue after logging out. I could always schedule it
as a monthly cron job I suppose ...
 

Yes. Sadly mp3gain is quite limited, and doesn't have this feature -
but never mind, I'm sure the xargs solution will be fine. If not, I'll
do what you suggested earlier and output all the path&filenames to a
text file, randomise it and then feed it to xargs again. That should
ensure the convergence of gain across batches.

Thanks for all your help,

And I've enough complaints about OSX's differences from other Unixen

my OSX time mostly to a minimum.
 

Redhat's RHN is not quite as flexible as yum, but it's not bad in terms
of flexibility or functionality. It's still based on up2date, which is
backward from yum but not *that* far back. My big complaint against it
is that, unless I go for a higher end service I believe, I cannot simply
rsync RPMs to a local archive from which a bunch of machines can be
updated.

It's been a while, but my recollection of Solaris' pkg support mechanism
- just to add another example - is that it was pretty feeble. It would
check dependencies, but not act on them. That is, an install/update
might fail for missing dependencies, but it wouldn't pull the
dependencies in.

But that was quite a while ago; things have probably changed since then.

You can only stop the rolling up at summary task level.
You cannot tell a milestone to rollup only one level.

Does Project Professional 2003 come with Server CAL?

Posted: 16 Nov 2005 02:25 PM PST

EED,

You should note that most of the responses here are NOT official responses
from Microsoft and that license agreements are complicated and varied so
there may be possibilities and restrictions that people here are not aware
of. You might want to contact Microsoft directly to find a definitive answer
to the question. In my limited experience I've only seen project pro with an
included CAL. It is almost like a "free" CAL so I'd expect the price with or
without it would be the same.

I set that up once I completed the subprojects. All the links are there. The
problem occurs when one or more task finishes and the next task or tasks
begin. The dates dovetail correctly, but in resource usage the hours are not
calculated correctly.

Thanks for your response,

"Microsoft Search" event filling up log

Posted: 30 Jun 2005 11:19 AM PDT

Its not an error though, just information that the Microsoft Search service
completed a process, which is absolutly fine, and is required for CRM, but
its a useless message,....I don't need an event that shows me things are ok,
I need warnings and errors, and this event type floods the log and doesn't
allow that :(

You can view the server in SQL Enterprise Manager, but theres no option to
either slow down the interval, much less lower the event threshold (like you
can in exchange). According to the usenet post, it seems that this option is
likely in the 2005 version of SQL, but I can't confirm this....

This typically means that you have not installed the CRM Exchange ROuter. This

Send a CRM Email

Posted: 30 Jun 2005 12:50 AM PDT

Hi Michael,

One way to do it, is to go to the contacts view, using the Microsoft CRM
shortcuts installed when installing the Sales For Outlook client, end sent
the e-mail using te Action drop-down the top left part of the list while the
contact is selected.

If you want to send the e-mail using the CRM-toolbar in Outlook, you have to
synchronise the CRM contact to your Outlook Contacts list.

<script language="javascript">
function SetProductIdLookupValue(productId,productName){

var lookupField;
var lookupItems = new LookupItems();
var lookupItem = new LookupItem();


//productId - GUID
//productName - Name/Description that actually shows up on the lookup
field
//Note that Wherever 1024 is used appropriate objecttypecode should
be used eg: 1088 for SalesOrder
//Even in html, the icn file would be ico_16_OBJECTTYPECODE.gif eg:
ico_16_1024.gif

lookupItem.id = productId;
lookupItem.name = productName;

On Create Workflow not working

Posted: 29 Jun 2005 01:44 PM PDT

OK, I realized what I was doing wrong. I had worflow rules using the
Complete and stop processing function after an IF statement instead of just
Complete. THe Complete and stop processing rule, stops any further rule from
running. My mistake.

Uninstalling CRM under a different profile

Posted: 28 Jun 2005 08:29 AM PDT

Hi.



We had an similar problem, and finally got the SFO and local database off.
We removed all files in c:\program files\microsoft CRM and all the local
database files. Then we cleaned the registry with Ace Utilities.



A lot of work. It would have bin faster to delete the partition on the local
computer, install Windows, Office and SFO.

Inserting notes

Posted: 28 Jun 2005 05:52 AM PDT

I would stay away from using the DMF to add data to existing records. As you
noted, it is designed for conversion purposes and does not work well for this
type of processing. You could do this with something like Scribe or SDK calls.

Erin,
If at least one address type will always be required, (and if these are
the only three you are looking at storing) you might be able to get
away with just setting the 'Business Required' flag on a picklist
called 'Address Type'.

Primary Contact for Opportunity

Posted: 27 Jun 2005 10:56 AM PDT

You aren't going to get the stock app to do what you want it to do. If you
really need this, then you need to look into the SDK to see how you might
acccomplish it there, but I think you are in for a lot of rad blocks.

Why does the client insist on the Oppy being tied to the Account? Having it
tied to the Contact is the designed solution for this.

Hi Dave and Matt,

Our customer does want the Opportunity linked to the company record, but
also needs to have the contact information available to them. On the
Administrative page there is a link to the lead record, but not the contact
created.

I tried to map from the lead record to the opportunity record the Contactid.
It wasn't successful, so tried from the contact record to the Opportunity
record....still not right.

Can I just add to the Opportunity mapping or schema the contactid, and show
it in the opportunity screens?
