Hi SheriTingle,

Project will accept an entry of 13:00 without any change required. It will
display as 1:00 pm however.
You can change the format to military time through the Control Panel >
Regional and Language options. On the Regional Options tab click the
Customize button. In the Customize Regional Options click the Time tab and
select the date form HH:mm:ss or H:mm:ss.

This will apply to all programs.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Depending on how many of the non-working days you want to be working,
you can use one of two approaches. Either go to Tools/Change Working

MS Project lacks basic project management features!

Posted: 13 Jan 2006 08:29 AM PST

Hi Ace,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :)

I think the problem exists because of a different understanding of the word
"Project". In MS Project's design is the universal definition of a project
being a unique undertaking with a clearly definable start and finish,
requiring the management of money materiel and men. It thus uses the
Critical Path Method for project scheduelling.

In your case, you seem to be running a production line of some sort. MS
Project is designed to help plan and schedule for production of the first
bird house or wedding cake, but not a series of them. For that you need
production software of some sort. That does not mean you can't use Project
for what you're doing, but you will run in to the sorts of problems you're
seeing. There's no inventory control, no means of Project guessing which
resource to use (you have to do that) and certainly no optimization
facilities other than trial and error. MS Project is just not designed for
that.

MS Project linking from other .mpp source file

Posted: 12 Jan 2006 05:29 AM PST

Hi Frank,

You're welcome for the assistance thus far and thanks for the additional
information.

If you only wish to show information on "main" tasks in one file, it may be
a whole lot easier to just work with filters in the one file to filter out
the tasks you don't wish to see. Take a look at the filter called Summary
Tasks.

You can also choose which level of tasks (Outline Level 1 - the "main" or
top level summary tasks, Outline Level 2 - next level tasks down, etc) by
selecting the Outline level from the Show drop down on the Formatting
toolbar.

Again, if this is only from one project, it is much more efficient to work
with just the one file. If you want to see "main" tasks from several files,
you can create a master through Insert > Project and still use the filtering
or Outline level option as needed.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

How do I set a What-If scenario based on 150% remaining work?

"IMAFriend" <net> wrote:
 

Doug,
In Project Work and Duration are two separate things. Duration is the
time span during which a task is performed. In Project it is usually
expressed in working time (assuming a normal calendar with 8 hour days
and 5 day weeks). On the other hand, Work is the total effort expended
by one or more resources to actually accomplish the task. If a single
resource is assigned full time to a given task, then and only then, the
Duration and Work will be the equal. So adding 50% to the remaining
workload is not necessarily the same as adding 50% to the remaining
duration.

Trying to read between the lines, it sounds like your boss simply wants
to capture the original plan so it can be compared to the current
working schedule as the plan is executed. This is called baselining and
any good planning/scheduling application (e.g. MS Project) has this
feature built-in. It also sets up the basis for classical earned value
metrics. None of this requires any customizing of spare fields.

Microsoft Word - Word 2013: Unable to insert jpg (jpeg) files

Microsoft Word - Word 2013: Unable to insert jpg (jpeg) files

Word 2013: Unable to insert jpg (jpeg) files

Posted: 10 Jan 2015 01:36 PM PST

I'm using Windows 8.1 and Word 2013.

I'm unable to insert jpg files into my Word document.

Here's what I did:

1. Chose the "Insert" tab and then "Illustrations". I clicked on the "Pictures" button.

2. An "Insert Picture" window popped up, asking me for the location of the jpg file.

3. I searched for the jpg file which resided locally on my machine, clicked on it and pressed the "Insert" button.

4. On my Word document, I saw there was a box with a frame. The frame was made up of small dashes with eight tiny grey-colored rectangles on its borders.

There was NO picture. The dimensions of the picture is 945x552 pixels, 96 dpi, 165 KB.

Lost a WORD DOC due to a power failure

Posted: 10 Jan 2015 10:40 AM PST

I was editing a WORD DOC that I'd saved before and we had a power failure. I know what folder it was saved in but not the file's name or even what word the name started with.

Surprisingly to me, when I restarted WORD after the power was restored, it popped a box telling me something about two open files that it had saved to ????? and offered to do something if I wanted to (I don't remember what that was all about).

So stupidly I said "NO" since I thought that any new DOCs that I'd started weren't that important. I never thought about it LOSING a previously Saved WORD DOC. 

But I've looked Like EVERYWHERE and can't find the thing. I'm pretty sure that since I know where to look I'd find it as I know how to search for certain words in file names and in their content.

This HELP page told me how to solve this but it hasn't. https://support.microsoft.com/kb/316951/en-us

I've done all 7 steps. The only one that still has me baffled is Method 5 >#5 where it says "Browse to the location that you saved the .tmp files, and then click All Files *.* . If you do not click All Files *.*, the .tmp files may not be displayed."
I've tried to figure out what that means and how to do it and I can't. I don't know where I'm supposed to click some All Files *.* thing.

Can I have some quick Help please?

Inserting comments visible in print without changing the pagination

Posted: 10 Jan 2015 09:32 AM PST

Hello,

I have made annotations (as inserted comments) on my thesis, which I will need to have with me for an exam. The page structure however needs to stay the same, and the right white margin of the page is not enough to contain these comments, thus they do not fit into the printed page.

Any suggestion what I can do to make room for those comments without changing the pagination of the doc, which needs to stay the same as it was before? Thanks!

WORD document appear not to respond to control-S

Posted: 10 Jan 2015 08:45 AM PST

My usual experience with control-S on an open WORD document shows a quick progress bar on the bottom edge of the display window. Another control-S does nothing, which makes sense since the content has just been saved, Exiting at this point does not result in the usual question "Do you want the contents saved?" which is now unnecessary since there have been no further changes,

I have some WORD documents, however, with which this doesn't happen. Control-S does not show the usual progress bar, only a momentary "busy" cursor. Repeated control-S repeats the "busy" cursor but show no progress bar. Exiting has the usual dialog even though no new changes were made after saving.

I am using Office 2010 on Windows 7. To repeat, this strange behavior is limited to a small number of my documents; most are normal.

Does anyone recognize this problem? I would appreciate some help!

VBA code to modify the (Name) property of an ActiveX Command Button

Posted: 10 Jan 2015 08:44 AM PST

Hello,

I have a Word 2010 Macro enabled document that contains two sets of ActiveX Command Buttons.  One set of buttons performs a spell check on specific sections of the document and then prints those same sections.  The other buttons add new pages to the document.

During the month of November, all the buttons worked perfectly.  During December, Microsoft applied an MS Office Security Update (KB2553154) which disabled all of my AxtiveX Command Buttons.  I have since learned at this site, thanks to Suzanne S. Barnhill , that Microsoft has created a workaround for this issue KB3025036 .  Our IT staff has applied the workaround to the necessary PCs.

After applying the workaround fix, most of the command buttons work again, but some of them don't.  In researching the problem, I discovered that the  (Name) Property for the buttons that are not working has been changed, thus when clicking on the button, the macro cannot be located because it has a different name than the button does.

For example, in one instance the original button (Name) was Print_Intake_Form, but the (Name) has now been changed to Print_Intake_Form1.  In another instance, the original button (Name) was Print_Intake_Form, but the (Name) has now been changed to Print_Intake_Form11. 

My idea for fixing this issue would be to create a macro that modifies the (Name) property for all the ActiveX buttons back to their original names.  If that seems like the best way to fix the issue, what VBA code woudl be needed to perform such a task?

If that is not the best way to resolve the issue, I am open to suggestions.

Thank you

Mark

Word 2007 label printing issue

Posted: 10 Jan 2015 06:57 AM PST

Whenever I try to print 1 or more sheets of labels, Word forces my printer into "Manual Feed" mode. The printer is a Brother HL3170CDW laser printer. It never did this before. I used to be able to put the label sheets in the tray of the printer, tell Word to print all pages, and walk away while the labels printed. Now I have to stand there and manually feed label sheets. Regular Word docs print normally, it just seems to be a label printing issue. Anyone with any ideas?

Trying to get autocorrect to respect a new word

Posted: 10 Jan 2015 06:12 AM PST

I am concerned that I am asking a question that has been answered, since it seems likely others face the same issue, but I can't find it. So apologies in advance.

I use autocorrect. When I type in the abbreviation EHR for "electronic health record" the autocorrect function insists on fixing it to HER. I have to go back and un-correct this each time I use it. I have asked autocorrect to ignore capitalized words, and I have added EHR to my custom dictionary. Neither had any effect. Can one of you tell me what I should do, other than turn off autocorrect, which is generally pretty helpful.

Hi H.T.,

You'd need to ask your management or IT folks on the background as to the method they chose. It may be to minimize the number of
licenses used or it could be the first time installation for a specific machine or just a roaming profile setup run (it's the same
installer/configuration tool, but it usually has a shorter runtime than a full install would).

For specifics on licensing you may want to phone the MS Licensing folks.

Couldn't the SA at least automate the Office install so that it is the same

Project's leveling function can be limited to a selected span of time

question, "no", but . . . there is generally always a way if you are
willing and able. I'm not sure it would be worth the effort, but there
should be a way to use a VBA macro to either, a) selectively employ time
based leveling, or b) te the leveling function with a custom
algorithm. If I were doing it, I would use the latter.

I'm not sure this would help, but can you break the overall project into
sections or phases wherein there are 40 or fewer resources associated
with each? It will still require a significant amount of effort to
monitor everything but then that's what a Project Manager does.

Underallocation of resource

Posted: 10 Jan 2006 01:39 PM PST

Hi Tim,
You're welcome for the assistance thus far and thanks for the additional
information.
The scenario you describe about contoured work for a resource frequently
comes about as a result of tracking actual data. For example: a resource is
initially assigned at 80% to a 5 day duration tasks, the planned work is 6.4
hours per day. If I record 5 hours of actual work on day 1 the percent
allocation for that day drops to 63% -- the resource didn't work the
original hours scheduled and the remaining 1.4 hours of work is scheduled
into day 6 at an allocation of 18%. Even if I change the contour of the
assignment back to flat, it does not affect any actual work recorded.

The splits you are seeing may be as a result of either resource leveling
(leaving the option "Leveling can create splits in remaining work" enabled)
or by using the Update Project command and rescheduling incomplete work.

I hope this helps. Please post again if this doesn't describe your
scenario.

beast. And once you've assigned a resource to a task, if you change the
assignment or add more resources, you get very different results. When
I work with my clients, particularly in the area of resource
assignments, after I figure out what results they want, I create a
protocol of how to get that result. I then tell them to always follow
that exact protocol if they want that result. Avoids a lot of problems!

Hope this helps in your world.

Great! I did see that parameter, but I didn't know I could use it for
individual mailboxes. It seemed to me that it was a global setting. I'll
look more into that cmdlet usage.
Thanks,

exchange 2000 mailbox recipient policy will not delete subfolders

Posted: 09 May 2008 07:38 AM PDT

It does work on some of the subfolders, just not all of them. the log shows
the subfolder and email within, it just wont delete them. but it will delete
others in subfolders in the same location. not sure how it would pick and
choose.

Thanks

Sync Mobile 6 with Exchange Not working

Posted: 09 May 2008 07:01 AM PDT

I posted int SBS newsgroups.

I reinstalled Activesync 4.5. I reset the phone. But when I entered
configuration information for setup I get this message. "Microsoft Exchange
did not accept your login credentials click retry to enter your credentials
again or click continue to sync with smartphone anyway."

I've checked the exchange server setup for mobile set up. It is correct. I
checked the user permissions and they are authorized for mobile. The user can
remote in using OWA from the Smartphone.

SMTP Queues "hang" intermittently

Posted: 05 May 2008 08:23 PM PDT

I'm sorry to take so long to reply here. I tried a couple of times with an
attachment but perhaps they are not allowed on the board. So I will try
typing in the essence of the screen shot from Message Tracking.

First though, to answer your question, of course I have the queues cleared
now,and have been all day, but it seems to me that some were scheduled, some
were queued, and some were retry if those statuses sound right.

The following is the information from a screen shot from message tracking
for one of the stuck the messages that was in one of the queues. They just
seem to keep trying but nothing happens.

5/5/2008 11:42 PM SMTP: Non-Delivered Report (NDR) Generated

I believe that the NDR at the end might have been my doing because that is
about the time I was working on things. But I had other messages in
different queues that had just as long or longer message tracking entries
just like this one.

There was one however that had a rather strange last line. After the
"Message Routed and Queued for Remote Deliver" entry, the next line was the
standard "Started Outbound Transfer of Message", but the following line
looked a bit corrupt: "Message transfered to
*************2*******************........" rather than listing the mail
server"

If there is something that could be more useful let me know and I will post
it. Tomorrow I hope I have time to look at the SMTP logs for those days
although I haven't really got the jist of how to read everything in them.

Again, thanks.

Exchange 2007 and Office Communications Server 2007 on Same Machin

Posted: 05 May 2008 02:54 PM PDT

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

My name is Robbin Meng, and it is my pleasure to work with you on this
issue!

Please allow me to confirm that my understandings are correct. As I
understand it, the issue is:

You would like to know if you can install OCS 2007 on the same server with
Exchange 2007 installed.

If I have misunderstood your concerns please feel free to let me know.

Since I am Exchange newsgroup technical engineer, I am not very familiar
with OCS 2007 deployment, however, based on experience and research, I
strongly do not recommend you to install OCS on Exchange server as the
mediation server role from OCS 2007 cannot be on the same server because it
uses those specific ports etc. Moreover, Exchange server 2007 is a
sensitive server for system resource, otherwise it may possibly cause heavy
workload or perforce issues and server no responding etc. potential
problems.

For more information, please check the below articles:

Email storage and CRM

Posted: 05 May 2008 12:54 PM PDT

Thank you for your quick reply.

We are implementing CRM and I have not been brought in for much of the
project except to provide the server support. Currently, our employees have
very large Exchange mailboxes and I would like to begin implementing storage
limits. However, I was told to wait since the impression was that once CRM
is in place, e-mails linked to contacts in MS CRM will get taken out of the
Exchange Information Store and stored within the CRM system.

As the Network Administrator, I have concerns pertaining to the information
store but the COO (former Director of Finance) has asked me to wait until CRM
is in place.

Is this assumption true?

Thanks!

Edit Word Documents in Read Mode Word 2013

Posted: 09 Jan 2015 03:17 AM PST

Is it just me or is the lack of an 'edit' funciton in Read mode really annoying? In previous versions of Word, you could edit in read mode.  Does anyone know if there is a work-around solution? I'm getting pretty fed up of having to go back to 'view' to edit documents every time I want to make a slight amend.

Changing default bullet in Word 2010 - 2013

Posted: 09 Jan 2015 02:09 AM PST

I asked my question on the Dutch community (here) but nobody seems to know the solution. I will try to explain it in English.

I am making the new Office templates for our company, however, there is still one problem. It seems impossible to change the default bullet in Word 2010 or 2013.


The problem is this:

In the new template, we want to align each enumeration with the text, as you can see in the picture: 

This is the case when I use the style "bullet list", which is already defined in the document, and apply it to a list. I also created a "new list with multiple levels" and it works when I use it to create a new enumeration. However, most users don't use a style or a list with multiple levels to create a summing-up. They just click the default bullet in the library bullets. And when you do, the text jumps further away. Not on the same line as the other text in the template.

Does someone know how I can change the default bullet in this template without using a work around (lists, style)? Maybe it is possible with VBA? At first I wanted to avoid VBA but if that is the only solution, then fine. But not everyone will need a list in the document so it must be a code that only works when the default bullet is used.

Thank you in advance for looking at this problem,

Greetings, 

Tessa

Corrupt Word Docs - cannot open

Posted: 09 Jan 2015 12:04 AM PST

I have spent that last 2 days reading the posts here and various online, whitepapers, and recovery docs from "leading" software / document recovery tools. Nothing is working but I still do not believe all is lost. Yes, my bad for not having a backup - that aside...

I had a workstation at my office that got infected. The employee was saving her Word 2010 docx's to her "My documents" folder instead of the "data drive". A "g-squad" type person came out, told me it could not be disinfected so he wiped the system and reloaded Win7. Not sure how he "wiped" it but I imagine he just deleted the partition on Win7 reload. I freaked when I saw he didnt backup the docs in the my doc folder before he reloaded, and he told me that was MY fault for not backing up... 

He popped in a CD and
said he was able to "find" the "digital image" of the docs on the harddrive. A few minutes later I had the Word file icons back on the desktop. I tried to open the docs and got the error: "...cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents" and "The file is corrupt and cannot be opened"

I have tried:
opening as a TXT
sending to GMAIL and trying recovery
tried "open/repair" option in Word
importing into many "web-based" html/xml processors
many other attempts 
So I have spent the last couple of days looking at MANY options. The best I can do is open the doc but I get a page of ASCII characters. Data recovery specialists in this city charge a LOT of money to do this, and I am pretty darn sure I can do the same as long as I had the proper tools. I have looked at a LOT of software but haven't purchased any yet. I have read MANY MANY posts here on EE, and have looked at many of those packages, way too many to list here but lets just say at least the top 20 "recommended" packages. They all say the same thing about recovering from NTFS, rebuilding the headers, etc, etc. but they all seem "consumer" in quality. 

Is purchasing a "recovery" software my ONLY choice?
