Frank,

I meant, in my previous reply, to say "Print Preview icon, select Page

How to *really* prevent splits after levelling?

Posted: 27 Nov 2005 03:51 PM PST

Ok I'm going to answer myself :)

I've got some resources using 24hrs calendar and some using the
standard calendar. After levelling, some tasks that are assigned to a
mix of 24hrs x standard calendar resources start on a Saturday.

When the problem occurs, that is because the amount of work
for the 24hrs resources is not enough to "cover" the whole weekend,
and the other resources cannot start until Monday, so a split
is added.

To prevent this, I had to set the task to use a specific calendar (standard).

Why it is better to not use Deadline dates

Posted: 27 Nov 2005 08:50 AM PST

Forgive me Rod but I really can’t understand your answer.
My previous answer to you was strictly related to the concept of deadline
because I think that associating a deadline date to a task is meaningless,
for the reasons I explained to you in that answer.
But while the one above is only my personal opinion, the objective proved
fact is that it is not absolutely true that "All the Deadline does is flag
the task as time critical and limits its slack time" because other than that
the Deadline , in some specific cases(that I describe answering to Jan at

[HELP]: How to define project tasks for...

Posted: 26 Nov 2005 03:40 PM PST

Task duration is defined as the time period between the moment work is first
done on the task and work is complketed on the task. So how can it have a
known duration but unknown hours? If the task starts Jan 01, that means
someone shows up on Jan 01 and does some physical activity leading towards
the creation of whatever that task creates. If it ends on 31 Dec, that
means someone is in the office or on the job site physically present and
doing something that wraps up the last bit of work necessary to fonish
whatever the task creates. The duration is the time frame over which actual
work extends, NOT the time frame during which work might take place.

Overall cost for project

Posted: 24 Nov 2005 09:02 AM PST

Project doesn't "assign costs" to anything. It looks at what a resource
costs per hour, mutilplies that by the hours the resource is employed to do
the work that needs to be done, and totes it up. I think you're thinking of
a top-down budget where senior management says "this project will cost XX
dollars- see to it." But that's not the way Project works - in fact it's
completely ignorant of top-down budgeting. Instead it looks at the specific
work to be done and estimates how much it will cost to do it. One can hope
that the figure it computes will be less than the amount senior management
has allocated - if it's not, it's telling you it will be impossible to
finish the project within budget and it might be time to update your resume
<grin>. The baseline is NOT the figure management has handed you. It is
what you have estimated to be the actual cost to do the work. It is a
baseline in that you save it before actually starting work so you have a
reference point to compare actual expenses later on to see if you're
on-track or things are getting out of control.

How do I set the default program to Word 2010 instead of 2007?

Posted: 02 Dec 2014 01:34 PM PST

The OS is Win7 ... Office Pro 2007 and Office Home 2010 are installed.  Clicking on a docx file runs Word 2007.  How do I get it to run Word 2010?

The steps I've tried are: Control Panel -> Default Programs -> Associate a file type with a program -> .docx (list box) -> Change Program (button).  Only Word 2007 and WordPad are listed.

I've selected Browse (button) -> C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14 ... most files are hidden.

I've selected Browse (button) -> C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14 ... WinWord.exe is listed.  I presume this is Word 2010 as the Office 14 subdir was created yesterday.    When I double click on a docx, Word 2007 runs.

Any suggestions?

Using Mark to generate an Index.

Posted: 02 Dec 2014 01:20 PM PST

I want to use an index, so am marking words.  The problem is the text in the curly brackets changes the format of the page because it takes up space.  If I turn off show format (paragraph symbol on home tab), it's OK, but I need to use the show format often when formatting and that defeats the purpose.  Is there any way to NOT show the curly bracket info in show format symbols?  Thanks.

Figure Numbers in Error in certain cases

Posted: 02 Dec 2014 01:15 PM PST

I'm writing a large, multi-chapter document with a lot of figures.  While editing, I need to move figures, along with their captions, easily to avoid unwanted white space (I'm using a 2-column format).  I stumbled on a great solution, but it messes up the figure numbers (I'm using chapter-number).  I use text wrap, above and below, put the caption in a text box, then group it with the figure.  When I do that, it changes the figure numbers (not the chapter numbers).  It almost seems as if the automatic renumbering scheme is ignoring the presence of the columns and numbering from the top of the page down.  Any ideas why?  Also, those of you writing similar types of material--how do you handle figures and captions for easy editing?  Thanks.

Column Breaks with tables

Posted: 02 Dec 2014 01:09 PM PST

Office 365 - Home

Win 7

I am working on a three-column document on a landscape tabloid (11X17) page.

If the last thing in a column is a table, If I want to move the table to the top of the next column I have to use multiple returns. It I put a column break at the end of the previous line, the table is moved to one line below the top of the next column. If, instead, I try to put a column break on the table (in the symbol that appears at the upper left hand corner of the table when the cursor is put over the table), the first line of the table remains in the column, and the rest of the table moves to the column.

How do you do this?

Allignment of address block in mailing labels

Posted: 02 Dec 2014 12:01 PM PST

For a mass mailing, I am trying to adjust the address block placement on the label.  We are using Avery 5162 labels & there is ample space for the horizontal & vertical placement of the address block on the label.  Via shift & return I place the block one line down.  Works fine.  Using ctrl & tab I am trying to set the block one tab towards the right.  The block is moved.  However, when printing labels, only the top line appears at the position of the address block and the other two or three lines appear aligned all the way to the left.

I never had such a problem when printing address blocks onto envelopes, using the merge wizard in Office 2010 as well as in several earlier versions.

Any advise would be appreciated.

Office 365/2013 not responding after opening up files that were saved from office 2011 mac.

Posted: 02 Dec 2014 11:27 AM PST

Hi there, 

I'm going nuts trying to figure this issue out. 

My colleague and I are trying to calibrate between a 30-40 page report. And every time he saves it I can't open the file. Doc docx or not. 

we both have the latest version of office on each side.  and it's a no go. however when I use office 2007, And I2010. it opens fine with no hickups. 

I tried safe mode 

i tried office 2013 and office 365 (32bit/64bit) 


When he types a sample small page like a few paragraphs  It seems to work fine though. 

Any reason why you think this would be the case? 

I bet its a few weird charceters or one small issue. but it immediately uses a full core cpu usage and says not responding after enabling editing mode. 

Thank you. 

Word 2010 Crashing on Windows Thin PC

If the teacher opens up a previously create document, does some work, and hits Save (or Save As), it does not crash back to the desktop.

Word crashes when opening document based on template

Posted: 02 Dec 2014 09:46 AM PST

Hi

I'm a college student with Office 2013.

I often use templates for the projects I write for my college work.

I now have several documents based on templates. Quite recently an error started occuring. Whenever I open a document, which is based on a template, word freezes. It just stops. In the bottom I can see that it tries to load the original template but fails to do so. So I have to close word down in the task manager. When I try to open it again, it ask whether I would like to run Word in Safe Mode. When I do this the document opens normally.

Any ideas of how to fix this. It is quite tirring to go through this process everytime I have to open a saved document.

Dumb question: cannot get combo box to allow user imput along with drop down list

Posted: 02 Dec 2014 09:21 AM PST

Hi,

I am using Word to create a form, and I have created a drop-down list. I would like the users to be able to enter their own info if one of the choices won't do, so I changed it to a combo box, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to set it up so it contains an editable choice.

I'm using the Developer tab and the Content Control buttons. I can get the drop down part to work, but again, I can't get a selection that will let the user enter text.

What am I doing wrong?

Docx cursor stupor, ie unable to: Open to Last Saved Cursor Position

Posted: 02 Dec 2014 08:07 AM PST

Hello,

I am finding that when i open my documents, especially my project of 110 pages, the cursor does not remember its last known saved position. 

I mean, when i save and close my document while the cursor is like somewhere on page 30, i use to be able to reopen the project and i would be taken to page 30.  But recently, when i reopen the document, the cursor constantly goes to page 1, line 1.  And its a p.i.a. to scroll down pages upon pages looking for the last place i was.

While i do know that i can set bookmarks, unfortunately this is not as convenient as it seems.

For one thing i dont always have time or memory to manually create one before closing the document.  

And its not like pressing a shortcut and having a old bookmark deleted then recreated with a new location, ie stopping point

Art Canvas

Posted: 02 Dec 2014 07:56 AM PST

Is there any logic to working with a canvas?  It seems very fickle to me, and it is annoying. I lock its anchor, then insert a new canvas on the page.  The LOCKED canvas moves like a magnet being chased by another magnet of similar polarity, except that the new canvas is NOT of similar polarity , i.e., properties. [Do you know those old idiotic thing where you could agree or disagree by clicking inside the appropriate box about what'shisname being an honest president?  The disagree one keeps avoiding selection.  This is how I feel about working with a canvas.]  It seems impossible to create a standard canvas to use like a template, and duplicate it with copy/paste.  The pasted one has its own mind and dimensions, not to mention that it reverts to the standard properties, too.

That said, does anyone have a workable site to refer me to, please?

Then, about some minutes later, everything gets back to normal and i can add the hyperlink.

Finding Folders on the PCs of different Users_Wscript

Posted: 02 Dec 2014 12:02 AM PST

Hello,

I have managed to get a (VBA) code (for a user form) in a template that I wanted, but I have one problem. There will be a few different people using the template, these people will be storing the template at different places on their PC / Network.

I have a few slightly different templates, so I was told to

Dim oTmp As Template

 

Then set it as:

 

Set oTmp = Templates("path")

Where "path" is where it is on my PC. But it will not only be on my PC though.

I read that there's something called Wscript that can return data like this from different places on a PC / Network. I cannot find a lot on it, so I was hoping for some more information here and (hopefully) how to code it.

Thank you!!!

Autocorrect isn't working

Posted: 01 Dec 2014 09:03 PM PST

My autocorrect seems to be working almost too well. It keeps trying to correct things that I don't need corrected. It sure has been getting annoying. It is only doing this in Word. For example, when I try to type "creation" it automatically fixes "creati" to "create" so when I finish typing the word I end up with "createon"... Or when I try to type "something" it automatically adds the "g" and then takes away the "g" that I type so when I click the down arrow for the autocorrect, it says "Stop automatically correcting somethingg" because in the end it ended up with two letter g's. It seems to be trying to guess what I am going to type by finishing my "ion", "ing", "ly", "et", "te" etc. I have been typing for years and have never seen a program act this way. I've had Microsoft Office 2010 since 2011 and it has usually been just fine. Please help!

Emails appear to be sent but are not received by the recipient

Posted: 10 Feb 2008 06:28 AM PST

I have narrowed my problem down to being a problem sending mails to servers
that use greylisting.

Yesterday evening I was working on the problem, and suddenly all my users
got NDRs for all the mails that had not been sent.

I collected thes NDRs and found a pattern that indicates that the recieving
servers are all runnning graylisting.

This leves me with a couple of questions:

Why have my users not received any NDRs or notifications that the message is
on hold and will try to be sent later?

What did I do that triggered the system to release all these NDRs?

Is my server set up to not retry enough, or is the timeot set incorrectly?

Any ideas?

Odd Log Behaviour

Posted: 05 Feb 2008 07:43 AM PST

Thank you John for your answer.

I was curious about the logs being created after a backup. I expect
lots of activity during the day. I don't expect that kind of activity
at 2AM. It hasn't been a problem but if there is a problem I could
fix now to prevent future trouble, I'd be ahead of the game. I will
check 1221s.

Thank you again for your answer.

Displaying Spam Confidence Levels with Outlook 2007 in Exchange 2003 Environment

Posted: 31 Jan 2008 01:03 PM PST

Alright, today was a snow day so I was able to work from home on this
SCL-viewing issue. I found IvaSoft's ShowSCL for MS Exchange 2003
(http://www.ivasoft.biz/showscl.shtml). I installed it on my Exchange
backend server and now I have the SCLs on new messages. Works great. I
would have rather not installed anything on the server because of unattended
consequences but it appears to be working quite well. Knock on wood!

You can do this through workflow using a Wait for condition, but tied to the

When contact is created
Wait
Contact.QuickMoveActive = 1
End Wait
Update: Account.QMAvailLicense -= 1

Migrating both SQL & CRM to a new server

Posted: 06 Jul 2005 10:35 PM PDT

Hi Matt,

You recommend installing the second application server prior to uninstalling
the first. Whereas Tony is migrating the app and then the sql server, I want
to prove disaster recovery.

I want to setup SQL on another server, restore the datbase(s) and then
install CRM to this same server. Once I have proved that the data has
restored ok I will then uninstall the sql and crm from the test server. Can
I do this, I obviously want to keep the live CRM server which is on the same
domain unaffected?

Thanks

You can check out my blog and then there are very good articles at

more resources. There are no publications that I would recommend, except
Microsoft Business Solutions' training manuals, available from your MBS

Sync between Outlook / MS CRM

Posted: 06 Jul 2005 08:38 AM PDT

Hello Jeremy,

Thanks for these precisions, it confirms what I though.

Concerning the duplicating of data, it doesn't seem to be the case : my
existing outlook contacts aren't duplicated in the local store after a 'go
offline' process and they don't seem linked with their CRM copy.

Really annoying... I've though of an workaround (not tested !) :

- Copy Outlook contact to CRM
- Delete Outlook copy
- Make a complete sync (deleting the OutlookSyncDate registry key)
- So the newly created CRM contacts should be copied in the local store and
linked to CRM.

Many thanks Jeremy

The SDK for v3 should be faster, as will the rest of the app. However, they
have not performed any performance testing on it yet as they were waiting for
the TAP 2 release which just went out last week.

as someone else has posted these here in the group, the stream from Naveen

I think the answer will be "yes" - given that V3.0 is no longer
authenticating against AD for security roles ,

There is also another teched from C360 on their soon to be released
framework - looks quite good.

How to sync ALL contacts into Outlook - not just the new ones?

Posted: 06 Jul 2005 06:08 AM PDT

Ok, I misunderstood your question then.

Well, you might do the revert. Export your CRM contacts to an Excel file and
then import this Excel file to Outlook. Then you'll just need to synch from
time to time to maintain both contact lists updated.

How can I convert order to invoice?

Posted: 06 Jul 2005 01:47 AM PDT

There are many instances where only part of the Order is Invoiced (partial
shipments for one). As a result, the app does not enforce anything along these
lines. It is up to the user to close the Order.

remove license for deleted users?

Posted: 05 Jul 2005 06:17 PM PDT

I believe the MBS has a hotfix that will now allow you to fix this this.
However, there is also a way (though it's unsupported) to remove the license
manaually.

If you look in the SystemUserBase table, find the value for SystemUserId for the
user in question. Then, remove the cororesponding record(s) from the
SystemUserLicenses table for that SystemUserId.

Separate database server for CRM

Posted: 05 Jul 2005 03:02 PM PDT

Matt,

Thanks for your reply.

We hadn't changed anything before we started seeing this issue. Once it
started, we made some changes based on articles found concerning the
same topic. Currently, we have all 4 CRM services and the 2 SQL
services running as the administrator, as is the worker process in
machine.config.

When I first saw this problem, I realized that I never granted access
to the custom databases for any additional users; only "sa". When I
looked at the CRM databases, they had logins for the SQLAccess group
and the SQLRepl group, so I granted those groups access to my custom
databases. I believe everything started working as expected. Now, about
a week later, I'm getting this login error and I can't figure out why.
As far as I know, nothing was changed, but this installation is at a
client site so I can't be positive. The problem is that I'm not even
sure where to look for changes.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

No Assigned Licenses

Btw, i forwarded this info to my boss, and he removed the license from the
administrator account. Huh Oh. Now what?

MSCRM 3.0??

Posted: 05 Jul 2005 12:44 PM PDT

If you look at a typical Microsoft product cycle:

v1 - Microsoft get's into the game
v2 - Microsoft catches up with the competition
v3 - Microsoft starts to outpace the competition

With MSCRM the original plan suggested a release cycle every 2 years

v1 - 2003
v2 - 2005
v3 - 2007

However, according to the press articles, early feedback from partners
suggested that although v2 was pretty good, a lot more features planned for
v3 needed to be in there as well. So rather than release v2 they decided to
bring a lot of v3 features forward, which added another 9 months of
development time (assuming v3 is launched Q4 this year).

Having attended the v.3 sessions at TechEd2005 I'm really impressed with
what they've done.

Hugh.

OnChange Sales Stage - Probability Update

Posted: 05 Jul 2005 07:07 AM PDT

You shouldn't need to use a jscript/onChange event to update probability.
When creating a sales process in workflow manager, the stage header that
appears displays the probability for the particular stage. You can change
the probability number by editing the sales stage. (A probability selection
field appears in the Edit Sales Stage dialog box.)
