Version order

Posted: 19 Apr 2008 09:35 AM PDT

And actually, in later releases of Office 2000, activation actually occurred.
I bought an early version which didn't require activation, but when I got to
a different job several years later, they had individual licenses and each
had to be activated.

Hi Bob

Can you tell me if the disk should be smooth all the way across? I can feel
a distinct ridge a few mm in from the edge just about where the coppery
colour starts and do not know if this is as it should be.

Thanks

The case of the vanishing password

Posted: 09 Oct 2008 07:51 PM PDT

Matt Giwer wrote: 

Slow down, and isolate the problem as being password related rather than a
Gnome issue. Can you log into a plain, *text* login, by hitting 'Ctrl-Alt-F2'
and logging in at the text screen. gdm and other window managers can become
quite confused by uid changes (if you have a local account that has a uid that
conflicts with NIS or LDAP published information), hostname changes (as part
of network configuration after the machine boots), and other fascinating issues.

Also, if you're using a normally configured Kerberos or Winbind, your password
will be locked for a while if you type it in wrong a few times. Wait about 15
minutes in most setups, and you should be able to log in again.

Not enough details - what do you see in /var/log/messages at boot time
related to eth0? Is the card recognized? What _kind_ of card is this?
What driver has been selected?
 

That only means that the kernel network stack is operating, and that
'ping' is usable. It has nothing to do with the network _card_ because
the address is 'localhost' and when you are trying to talk to yourself
there is no need to even have a ethernet, token-ring, fddi, or ppp
interface.
 

1. /var/log/messages Is it seen? Is the "right" driver used? Any
error messages?

2. /sbin/ifconfig -a Is the interface shown? Can you see something
that looks realistic as a "HWaddr"? Packet counts for TX and RX -
are any shown? Any error counts above zero?

3. Do you have any firewall settings? (This really shouldn't be the
problem, but it's something to check.
 

Does the card accept this mode of operation?

yum update problem - avahi-0.6.17-1.fc7

Posted: 29 Sep 2008 10:35 PM PDT

Works for me too. Highly recommended if you're having a similar
problem, my avahi-autoipd-0.6.22-10.fc9.i386 was conflicting with
avahi-0.6.16-4.fc6.i386

I performed the following steps (as root)
rpm -U --replacepkgs avahi-autoipd-0.6.22-10.fc9.i386
This complained about the old fc6 package, so I did
rpm -e --noscripts avahi-0.6.16-4.fc6.i386
Then did the first command again:
rpm -U --replacepkgs avahi-autoipd-0.6.22-10.fc9.i386
which worked without error.
I then did:
yum update
worked fine, with no complaints.

Word crashes when working with a drawing canvas

Posted: 07 Jan 2015 01:03 PM PST

Split from this thread.

Hi,

Unfortunately since we migrated from Word 2010 to Word 2013 I experienced a lot of similar problem when working with drawings and canvas ..... in a lot of cases completing with a complete Word crash. I could even generate a Word crash creating a new Word document and doing only two single canva operations.

I observed several times thie same problem, in fact each time I forgot to not use object groups with embedded text. This is just not working with Word 2013.

I assume that Microsoft have an OOP bug in their text managemnet copying only the pointer to the text in place of copying the whole content leading to the observed behaviour that change the text in one object changes the text in all object copies.

Workaround:

- Use another program

- If you have to use Word like I have never copy object with embedded text, i.e. create each text instance individually.

TOC crashes on update unless Word runs in Safe mode

Computer problem with Word 2010

Posted: 07 Jan 2015 11:16 AM PST

Computer  problem with word Document.

A few weeks ago my computer was going slow and my son offered to see if he could sort it out for me. He was able to clear malware off the computer and copy my files to an external hard drive. When I got the computer back everything   looked fine and the computer was working much faster. Problems arose when I open a file and later closed it. It then seemed to create a copy file . The word logo appears in the folder as a lighter version on the normal  logo that indicates the flag type.

If I try to print a copy of the doc from what looks like the genuine one or the fainter one,  it will not print . If there is a watermark on the doc it will print the watermark only.

An email will not print either although the Epsom  window on the computer will show as normal as will the print page and  the printer window on the printer. I have enclosed a photo of an example  from a word folder and as you will see the file name changed from 10 to a sideways s and what appears to be a $ sign. In addition the normal appearing file contains 1.21 mb, while the fainter one indicates  1.62 bytes.

My computer operates on Windows 7 and word 2010 which got about 2 years ago. Is there a setting that is making my files save as docx and if so how do I change it and restore my files.

"Microsoft word document" is how my files were tagged in the file index.

Any assistance how I might solve this problem would be most welcome.

N. B. I do not have much technical knowledge but can follow instructions.

Swapping documents in side-by-side view

Typing in Vietnamese using Arial in Word 2013

While placing Vietnamese text from a Word 2013 document into InDesign, I noticed all characters printed using the Microsoft font Arial. It appears to support more glyphs than some other fonts.

I was asked how people can type in Vietnamese using Arial --- do they use different combinations of modifier keys or do they need a special configuration of either Microsoft Word, their computer, or their keyboard?

Table text appearing as symbols and numbers

Posted: 07 Jan 2015 08:35 AM PST

Hey guys,

I've just been sent a word document by a friend who has a deadline for a proposal and and most of the document has changed to a series of characters. I have tried all the typical methods to reverse this i.e. converting and reconverting from text and rtf, opening in a 3rd party work program, deleting final paragraph and extracting it in fragments into a new document, but alas nothing seems to help. It appears that the problem is stemming from the tables...

I have attached a screenshot outlining the problem. Any advice would be very much appreciated. 

Many thanks, 

Jeremiah.

Splitting, selecting and deleting words by unknown colour

Posted: 07 Jan 2015 05:52 AM PST

Hi

I have a document pasted from the internet that contains several hundred lines.   The names are in a purple colour (not sure exactly which shade) and the job titles are in black (see example below).

I want to split out the first name, surname and job title into three columns.

Here's what I have to work with.

The first name and surname are in purple and separated by a space.   

The job title has no space between the surname but is separated by colour (ie it's black!)

Any pointers would be appreciated!

I'm thinking search by colour might work but I don't know the shade? 

I've tried "select by similar format" but it picks up the whole line.  

Cheers

Copying a text from a website that has a narrow textbox, and pasting it into word.

Posted: 07 Jan 2015 05:29 AM PST

Whenever I copy a text from a website where the textbox is narrow, pasting it in Word will always cause it to follow the same narrow formatting instead of being continuous. 

Example:

year and on weekly earnings in the previous year. No significant impact was

found on the labor force participation rate or the employment to population

ratio in the census week or the number of weeks worked in the previous year.

The magnitudes of the coefficients imply that a 1 percentage point increase in

the percent of foreign-born in a city reduces the unemployment rate by

0.23 percentage points; reduces the number who worked in the previous year

by 0.25 percentage points; and reduces wages of unskilled natives by

1.2 percent, at most.

Instead of:

year and on weekly earnings in the previous year. No significant impact was found on the labor force participation rate or the employment to population ratio in the census week or the number of weeks worked in the previous year. The magnitudes of the coefficients imply that a 1 percentage point increase in the percent of foreign-born in a city reduces the unemployment rate by 0.23 percentage points; reduces the number who worked in the previous year by 0.25 percentage points; and reduces wages of unskilled natives by 1.2 percent, at most.

Is there any way I can paste the text and edit it to make it flow in one continuous line without any breaks?

Sorry if I'm not explaining it clearly. English is not my first language.

Office 2013 over Windows Server 2012 RDP World Add-On Macro/Template Error

Posted: 07 Jan 2015 03:51 AM PST

I have a new Windows Server 2012 Remote Desktop environment for about ten users (not R2) with the latest Office 2013 Pro installed.

The users all have an add-on word template in Word for Office 2013.  That add-on was installed as administrator and ONLY works as administrator.

When any other user (even if they are local administrators, domain admins, etc.) opens Word, they are immediately prompted with the following message:

"Could not load some objects because they are not available on this machine."

If a user "runs as administrator" it runs fine.  Obviously, I don't want that.  I have been searching and searching and thought maybe there was a group policy or Office setting someone may know that I just can't find.

Any help would be awesome!  Thank you.

Restart after level question

Posted: 07 Jan 2015 02:32 AM PST

I have set-up a customized multilevel list where I have associated paragraph styles with 7 levels that seems to be working properly.  My document has other paragraph styles that may be mixed in with the multilevel list and are not part of the multilevel list so I would think they would not have an effect on the list. My question concerns Restart after level.  It seems to me that any higher level would reset a lower level numbering, but from experimenting a lower level will only restart after the specified level.  Am I correct?

When i do this, the third page will say two as well. If i change the third page to say 3, the second page will then also say three. How do i get it to automatically change number with each page?  I had the exact same problem earlier today on another project but i asked my teacher and he said it didn't matter. My current project will have 20+ pages, so I don't really want to put it in manually. I also don't feel like it would let me anyway, but I haven't tried to do this with more than three pages.

If your laptop paperwork didnt contain a key for Office, and you didnt pay
the significant sum of monies for Office then its a trial
If you buy an OEM version of office its locked to that Laptop, and dies with
that PC
If your laptop had Works or similar installed, you may qualify for an
upgrade version
Buying from eg amazon.com may be cheaper than other places

Same result. It drives me nuts... I also installed Office 2003 from the cd
and removed it and that went ok (everything is removed). But if i install

a uninstall all the SP3 files remain on the drive.

The installer information on the drive and the user information is not the
problem this information may resist on the drive but it are the program
files that bug me...

cannot uninstall office 2003 after upgrade to 2007: Missing Patch

Posted: 13 Apr 2008 04:50 PM PDT

If you have the Office 2003 H&S cd you should be able to use this to
uninstall 2003
If you post the full err.msg there are some KB articles refering to various
'missing patch' err.msgs

Hi Gary,

You may be able to do that as well. If on Windows Vista, if you scroll down that same page, near the bottom is a link for the

REQ: Distro recommendation for a newbie

Posted: 26 Sep 2008 09:17 AM PDT

"Ralink RT73 chipset"

OK, but the problem is, one USB stick I have already tried is Ralink RT73
based - and didn't work under PCLOS2007 / Ubuntu (or several others whose
names escape me again). Still, I can try the actual Dlink version.

Thanks for the updates.

Linux Partitioning Layout

Posted: 25 Sep 2008 08:26 PM PDT

Well, how about this one:
I am planning this layout for PRODUCTION SERVER(Linux,Apache,
PHP,MySQL) - about 4 websites with MySQL backend
and around 10 websites with static content, so I am trying to optimize
it for MySQL.

Server has 16GB RAM.

Based on your advice and some googling I have this layout so far.
Please feel free to critize it( + explanation so we all can learn
something)

================================================== =====
Device | Mount Point | File System | Size |
================================================== =====
"RAID 1"(hardware RAID) capacity 146GB (2 x 146GB Serial-Attach SCSI)

/dev/sda1 /boot ext3 100 MB
/swap swap 16 GB
/dev/sda2 / ext3 40 GB
/dev/sda3 /home ext3 40 GB


on "RAID 10"(hardware RAID) capacity 146GB (4 x 73GB Serial-Attach
SCSI)
I create separate partitions for security(and protect from
overflowing)
and performance reasons.

/tmp tmpfs 10 GB


Primary partitions
/dev/sdb1 /var ext3 20 GB
/dev/sdb2 /var/lib/mysql ext3 60 GB
/dev/sdb3 /var/log/mysql ext3 20 GB


Extended partition
/dev/sdb4 ext3 20 GB
Logical partitions in sdb4:
/dev/sdb5 /var/tmp ext3 6 GB
/dev/sdb6 /var/spool ext3 6 GB
/dev/sdb7 /var/mail ext3 6 GB

Keymap Issue

Sounds like some idiot hard-coded the Wyse keys into his application
instead of using the curses library or least using terminfo directly. This
was, unfortunately, common. I no longer remember the Wyse codes and don't
have any references on hand, but you may be able to dig what you need out
of the terminfo data base. You can either try to find the source or use
the infocmp command to reconstruct it. On my Debian system
'infocmp -B /usr/share/terminfo/w/ -L wyse60' does the job.
'man 5 termcap' for the format.

Multiple USB serial ports

Posted: 21 Sep 2008 09:04 AM PDT

I'm interested in serial ports rather than storage devices or
ethernets, so anything that uses data on the disk (label) or
the host-ID won't work.

I managed to do what I wanted with something like this in
a udev rule file:

ID=="1-4.1:1.0", MODE="0666", SYMLINK+="gpsusb3", OPTIONS="last_rule"

I got the magic ID text by watching /var/log/messages while plugging
a device in. (There is a hub in there on an extender cable.)

Printing PDFs through CUPS

Posted: 19 Sep 2008 03:26 PM PDT

Everything appears to look OK, and the doent dimensions are correct
in print previews or doing a `pdfinfo` on the file.

The label size is defaulted to 4x6" in the printer options, and the
IPP class just sends the PDF directly to CUPS.

The "re-size" is apparently happening during one of the CUPS filter
stages, as I get this in the error_log initially:

D [21/Sep/2008:16:39:47 -0400] [Job 161] width = 300, height = 500
D [21/Sep/2008:16:39:47 -0400] [Job 161] PageSize = [ 216 360 ],
HWResolution = [ 100 100 ]
(...)
D [21/Sep/2008:16:39:47 -0400] [Job 161] Updating PageSize to [216
360]...
D [21/Sep/2008:16:39:47 -0400] [Job 161] size = w216h360

Which then changes later on in the log:

D [21/Sep/2008:16:39:47 -0400] [Job 161] Updating PageSize to [612
792]...
D [21/Sep/2008:16:39:47 -0400] [Job 161] size = Custom
D [21/Sep/2008:16:39:47 -0400] [Job 161] margins[] = [ 0.000000
0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 ]
D [21/Sep/2008:16:39:47 -0400] [Job 161] Reallocating memory, [612
792] = 1725x2233 pixels...
(...)
D [21/Sep/2008:16:39:47 -0400] [Job 161] width = 1725, height = 2233
D [21/Sep/2008:16:39:47 -0400] [Job 161] PageSize = [ 612 792 ],
HWResolution = [ 203 203 ]

Which leads me to think one of the filters is misreading/not
interpreting the doent dimensions and defaulting to US letter
(we're in a North American locale so this would make sense).

Thanks,

Phil.

Using Linux in RAM...

Technically, that's true. But perhaps as an effect of the prioritising
of pages for swapping, combined with typical usage patterns for /tmp, it
is often much faster to use tmpfs for /tmp even though you may need a
larger swap file, as compared to using the same space for a /tmp partition.

Another reason I mention it is that use of swap space is one of the big
differences between tmpfs and other ram disks, which typically are
allocated non-swappable memory.
