Microsoft Word - Font sizes within Word tables shrink

Microsoft Word - Font sizes within Word tables shrink


Font sizes within Word tables shrink

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 03:07 PM PST

I've built a document that contains paragraphs of text as well as some tables. I've created a "normal" style that is 10 point Segoe UI Semilight. I apply that font style to my document text, including the text in the tables. It all looks great, except for a couple of situations:

  • i open the document in read mode. When i do this, the text NOT in the tables looks perfect, but the text IN the tables looks incredibly small. 
  • I copy and paste the document into an email (keeping source formatting). i email it and view it on my phone (iPhone). In the iOS email app, the table text looks incredibly small (while the non-table text looks fine). If i view it in my OWA app, the opposite happens - table text is huge whle non-table text is normal. 

Just trying to figure out why the same style looks drastically different inside and outside of tables. 

thanks for your help!

Office Proofing will not work. Language packs will not install. No dictionary file (.dic) in the proof folder?

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 02:09 PM PST

Office 2013

No matter what words are misspelled in any applied language, the spell checker does not recognize words as misspelled.

Uninstalling completely and reinstalling does not fix the problem. 

I have gone through all of the  steps of checking / unchecking boxes for "spell check on this page" without any result.

After speaking with tech support from Kivuto (my college's tech support team), we learned that:

  • There are no .dic (dictionary) files in the proof folder (\Users\user_name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Proof).
  • Custom dictionaries are empty ((\Users\user_name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\UProof).
  • The proofing tools installation from http://www.microsoft.com/en- does not complete.
  • Windows updates specific to Microsoft Office do not install on Windows 7.

     When the proofing install begins, a box pops up and then instantly closes. But the dictionaries do not install.

Microsoft does not recognize my student purchase as an active office 365 account so I can not get any support from them over the phone. They direct me back to my school's administrator. And the administrators, although very helpful, have said that this is an issue Microsoft has the fix for.

Thank you for your help!

Slow Response

I am using Office 2007 under Windows 8.1 on several workstations.  Using Gigabyte motherboards and I3 processors and 8 gig memory.  On one of these workstations, loading a Word document or a spreadsheet,  or if one of these is open and I open another or I change from one of the open documents to another, make a change and then try to save the document, I get the blue "wait" circle and it remains there literally long enough for me to go make a cup of coffee and come back and it could still be there.

I was once told by a Microsoft support associate that this was because Office 2007 is not very compatible with 8.1 and I should upgrade.  So I got Office 365 and it made  no difference,  Same problem!

And so when it got to be renewal time I went back to 2007.  Hasn't improved meanwhile.

Anyone got any ideas?

Word VBA Code to send document as email - convert from Excel VBA?

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 01:15 PM PST

Hello,

I am using the following code in Excel, and it works great. I am now trying to figure out how to modify it in order to work with Word 2010 instead. I have tried changing a few different things, and I keep getting errors.

I found that apparently saving in Word is 

Application.ActiveDocument.Save.

So, I'm thinking the Attachments.Add ActiveWorkbook.FullName needs to be changed in some way too, but I haven't had any luck with it yet.

I'm also thinking the Mail_Workbook needs to get changed as well.

Any assistance you can provide is greatly appreciated!

'Send Email Button (Outlook, and for sure works with Outlook 2010)
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
ActiveWorkbook.Save '<- This saves the document prior to emailing it to ensure all content is emailed
Call Mail_Workbook '<- This calls the below code so it functions when clicking on the button

End Sub

Sub Mail_Workbook() '(Outlook, and for sure works with Outlook 2010)
' This sends the last saved version of the Activeworkbook object in Outlook (and it gets saved above as mentioned)
   Dim OApp As Object, OMail As Object, signature As String
 Set OApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
 Set OMail = OApp.CreateItem(0)
 With OMail
  .Display '<- Or change to .Send if wanting to send immediately
 End With
   signature = OMail.HTMLbody '<-This calls the user's Primary Outlook email signature
 With OMail
  .To = "*** Email address is removed for privacy ***" 
  .Subject = "Subject Line Here"
  .Attachments.Add ActiveWorkbook.FullName
  .HTMLbody = body & "<BODY><p>Hello,</p></BODY>" & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & _
  "<BODY><p>Main text of email.</p></BODY>" & vbNewLine & signature '<-Tells it where to place the signature
.Display '<- Or change to .Send if wanting to send immediately
  End With
   Set OMail = Nothing
   Set OApp = Nothing
   Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Can't Move Picture in MS Word 2010 - Position Options Locked Out

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 12:48 PM PST

I am trying to layout some pictures in MS Word 2010.

Most of them I can move fine but there is one that is locked in the centre of the page. I have tried to change the layout to 'in front of text' which normally works, but that option is greyed out. In fact both the 'position' and 'layout' options are locked and cannot be edited for this one picture.

What is causing this and how do I unlock these options?

The image is a PNG file that I added using "Insert >> Picture"

Word cannot open a downloaded file

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 12:22 PM PST

Split from this thread.

Hi I installed word 2013. If I open and create a new document no issues but when I download a document eg, an application form lol, I get the error message that the file name is not compatible with the file extension docx.  What is the point of having the latest software if it cant open the documents?  How do I fix this? I have tried every option I can think of to open this. I have been told the issue may be when the original owner creates the document but that doesn't help the issue.   Also when I had the same file emailed to me instead of downloaded it opened fine. This is frustrating and off putting.  Microsoft just wanted £65 to "fix" the fault.....

Word 2010 mail merge field returns a value of 0 but only when the value is a digit plus a letter

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 12:20 PM PST

I have a list of routes that are numbered 1, 2A, etc. Some are single or double digits, some are one digit and a letter (2A, 2B, etc.)

In Word, when the route merge field is 10, for example, I see 10 in the Word document correctly. When the lists turns into the hybrid 2A, for example, Word displays a 0. Additionally, I also have a merge field that contains a seven digit control ID (all numbers). As a test, I added an A on the end of one of them and it, too, displays as 0 in Word. 

In Excel, I have tried:

Formatting the cells to General

Using Format Painter from cells that are people's names (all letters)

Added a number to the end of a name, as a test, but that displays correctly

I have not tried anything in Word because I don't know what to try.

Office 2013 Themes, styles, and fonts missing

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 11:51 AM PST

Hey All,

              I am experiencing an issue with MS Office 2013. Here is the basic config in our OTEC labs: Windows 8.1 Enterprise 32 bit, Office 2013, Office 2010 (recently uninstalled). 

After uninstalling Office 2010, the Styles, Themes, and Fonts (possibly undiscovered options also) in 2013 have lost most of their default options. I was able to get all the default Fonts to reappear by performing a re-install, but the Themes and Styles default options are still missing MOST of their options. I believe there is a correlation with this and something missing in the roaming profile folders associated with Office. Another theory is that something in the registry is incorrectly pointing to the wrong folder when attempting to access these options. I have been told that if the program was installed on the administrator profile during image creation, that the other user profiles created upon first logon may not be seeing them due to access being denied to the Admin profile by Windows 8. Does this make sense? Why would some of the default options be present while others are missing?

Is there a quick fix for this or am I going to have to go to each computer, find each reg setting, and then point them to the proper folder?

Im a bit of a noob when it comes to these kinds of issues, so any help will be much appreciated. If more clarification is necessary, feel free to ask.

VBA Code Questions

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 11:37 AM PST

I am "trying" unsuccessfully to write code for the first time. I am trying to create a template for a lease agreement so that when I open the lease agreement a UserForm pops up to fill in the important (and often repeated) data. Such as Landlord Name, Tenant Name, Guarantor, Day.  I managed to set up the form and the command buttons and even have it so the form pops up when you open a new document. I just cannot get the code right so that when you click "Enter" it populates. 

This is what my code looks like - but it pops up with an error and highlights the underlined portion.  What do I have wrong.  Thank you.

Private Sub cmdEnter_Click()
    With ActiveDocument
        .Bookmarks("Landlord").Range.Text = txtLandlord.Value
        .Bookmarks("Tenant").Range.Text = txtTenant.Value
        .Bookmarks("Guarantor").Range.Text = txtGuarantor.Value
        .Bookmarks("Day").Range.Text = txtDay.Value
    End With
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True

How to create Table that automatically adds values in MS Word 2010

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 10:55 AM PST

Here is the problem I am working on.

I am trying to create a table in MS Word that will function as a scope of work describer as well as adding values to be worked on. An example is below: 

  • UB Standard Horizontal Category 6 CMP cabling to (8) locations.
  • Backbone Extension to MPOE (4) 4 pair UTP for POT's lines and T-1's.
  • Install and connect (OFE) Equipment UPS, Router, Switches.
  • Distribute and connect Cisco IP Phones and perform SRST Dial Plan Testing.
  • Install (1) 20 Amp dedicated circuit to Network Cabinet location.
 
13.00
34.00
45.00
2.00
 
Total Price $ 114.00

What I need Column A to do is to expand and collapse as tasks are added or removed. (Word already does this to an extent)

The second part however is the one that I am having problems with in Column B. I need the cost to line up wit the bulletined point, and then add the values at the bottom. I know about the Sum feature of Word, but I need to do this automatically as the document is being entered, like excel does instead of having to do it manually when I'm finished. 

My question is two fold, does someone exist already that has this functionality? Or Is there a command I am not aware of. At a minimum I would at least like the total to update without me having to do so manually. 

Use the word references instead of the German equivalent, when using word 2013 referencing

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 10:24 AM PST

Hello,

I am using Word 2013 in the German version, but now writing an academic paper in English. I would still like to use the Word 2013 reference tool, unfortunately the headline than appears in German instead of English. Do you know how I can change it? I tried it via file --> option --> languages --> display languages. But then English does not appear as an option. 

Office Default File Locations

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 09:59 AM PST

I'm aware that this topic has been covered in other threads but none seems to solve my problem. 

Some months ago, I changed the default location for Documents from my C drive to my D drive.  However, whenever I hit Open, it will still go to an empty Documents folder on the C drive.  I have to navigate to D then Documents.  If I hit Save, the same thing happens and I have to navigate to the correct location to save documents.  I've shown a couple of screenshots to show an attempted Open and the File Locations from Word.  The same thing happens for Excel.

I have tried deleting the Documents folder on the C drive but then, when I hit open, whereas it will correctly go to Documents on the D drive,  an error message comes up saying that it cannot find C:\Users\Ray\Documents.  I have searched everywhere but cannot find any reference to C:\Users\Ray\Documents in any of the options.

What else do I need to change?  I am using Windows 8.1 and Office 2010.

Word won't print from rear tray for some documents

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 09:19 AM PST

I'm having a weird issue with Word 2007.  I have some templates prepared for various things I print occasionally at the office, but I'm getting a weird issue where Word will not print -one- of them from the rear tray.

I have a letter envelope template saved for a company we send mail to periodically and it will print from the rear tray with no fuss, at all.  I have it set to automatically decide which tray to use and it just works.  My printer (a Canon MX882) automatically knows to use the rear tray for this.

However, when I try to print mailing labels from the rear tray, it does not automatically print from there and, even when I manually tell it to print from the rear tray in the Print Properties menu, it refuses to print from the rear tray.  I have tried printing directly, I've tried going through the "Envelopes and Labels" menu, and I've even tried creating a new file (in case the old one was corrupted or something) and it doesn't work at all.

Just to see if it would work, I printed a regular letter and told it to print from the rear tray and it worked beautifully.  I don't know what is going on that Word won't print labels from  the rear tray, but I'm about at my wit's end.

Any help I can get is appreciated.  Thanks in advance!

Using FIND in a Word Macro

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 08:05 AM PST

I have a long list of books that follows a fixed format of 3 lines of data plus a blank line.

The 1st part of the 1st line of each entry consists of the TITLE followed by a : (colon).  There are no other occurrences of a colon in the list

I have been trying to record a macro which searches for the colon; advances one character and then selects all the text back to the beginning of the line.  The font of the selected text would then be set to bold.  (In other words, I want to embolden the Title which is delimited by the colon).

I immediately fall at the first hurdle.  If I start to record and then use CTRL-F to select the colon as my target, the cursor moves to the first instance of : as expected but I then cannot move to the right one character until I close the FIND dialog. But closing the FIND dialog seems to move the Cursor back to where it started.

Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong, please?  Or am I trying the impossible within a Macro.

Many thanks.

Word 2007 excessive auto save

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 06:38 AM PST

I have set Word  to auto save every 15 minutes.  After having it open for a while (and the time varies from a few minutes to a couple of hours), Word starts auto saving on it's own about every 30 sec to a minute and then it's impossible to do anything.

The only recourse it to exit Word (between saves) and restart.  After a period of time, it will start auto saving again.

Suggestions?

How can I allow hyphenation of word between pages?

Posted: 29 Jan 2015 04:42 AM PST

I'm getting quite frustrated by the automatic correction in word that moves a hyphenated line of text to the next page if it is the last one. In other words, if a page ends with a word that is hyphenated, the whole line of text is moved to the next page. This is quite problematic for those of us (like me) who use Word in academic research where we both use plenty of long words and have a document length limit (x pages). I consistently lose about a page's worth of text due to this phenomenon. And I can find no way of turning it off!

This has been asked in another thread, but without proper answer. Does anybody know if it is possible to turn this specific move-whole-line-to-next-page-if-hyphenated function off?

Word 2013 and docx

When I have repeatedly tried to download a word document eg an application form, when I try to open it I am told the filename is not compatible with the file extension, so I can't open it.  I have had the same document emailed to me and it opened fine. I can also create word documents.  Microsoft wanted £65 to "fix" the fault and also indicated that the fault lies with the original document which doesn't help. This is an ongoing issue. Any fix? Not practical to continually ask people to email application form which I cant open with the latest software.

MS World - Dot turned into Comma

Posted: 28 Jan 2015 09:56 PM PST

Hi everyone,
I've got a bad problem in my MS Word2013 and I can't solve it.

The thing is, I'm using Persian language (Farsi - RTL) and whenever I use "." (dot) between numeric, MS World turned it automatically to "," (comma).

(It is like I write "2.3.4" in Persian and it turned automatically to "2,3,4")

I don't know why is it happening with Persian language and the English is work fine.

Can you please help me with that? Should I make any change at "Auto Correction" or what?
Thanks.

Moving Page Numbers in the header?

Posted: 28 Jan 2015 07:49 PM PST

Hi,

I'm in a screenwriting class, and if you know anything about screenwriting, you know that every little piece needs to be exact. I need my page numbers to be exactly .5 inches down and .75 inches from the right edge of the paper. But no matter what I do, the page numbers will only go in one spot on the header and I cannot, for the life of me, get it to shift even a fraction of an inch. HELP.

Also, is there a printing border? I had the measurements exact and then I printed it and everything moved a half-centimeter. Frustrating!! 

Thanks - any suggestions would be lovely.

Any way to get this option on Microsoft Word?

I also ran the Online Repair too, no luck.

2 suggestions -
Try putting a 1 hour lag from the pred. I have had problems with 0 durations
task showing up on the wrong date with a FS-0 lag.
Try going to Format>Layout and un-check Round Bars To Whole Days.

Thank you Rod for taking the time to reply.

As far as we know, with Standard, we all cannot simultaneously work on the

Any suggestions?

Hi Nicolas,

You are welcome for what help I have provided thus far. I know very little
about Project Server so I suggest following Mike's advise about posting to
the server newsgroup. It may be an issue related to the Enterprise Global
template. Before posting to the server newsgroup, I would check and see if
the issue is only on your machine or other machines as well just to try to
narrow the list of questions first.

Just like alex says, http://crm/loader.aspx should work. If this is indeed

This tool works fine, but if you have a programmer who can work with asp.net,
then you can create a integration yourself as well quite easily. Just make a
webservice which allows the web data and stores it in the crm database. there
is a good example in the SDK which explains how to create contacts. If you
know how to make a webservice and how to call a webservice then you're done.

This might be a cheaper solution for you.

Exporting Data

Posted: 30 Aug 2005 05:21 AM PDT

Ok So this was my solution

It's a small func I wrote it in pseudo code
but you can use it for any langauge

it's fairly easy to use

ObjectCollection <- getAllNotes(ObjectName, ObjID)
Col <- new Collection()
Relations <- getAllRefereToRelationships(ObjectName)
foreach (R in Relations)
Objs <- Featch ( R.ObjectName, R.PrimaryKey = ObjID )
foreach (O in Objs)
Col.Add <-( getAllNotes ( O.ObjId) )
return getNotes (ObjId)


It will return all notes from all the children of the ObjetName you wish

usage

Collection C = getAllNotes( "Contact", "{123-3-23-235}" )

will bring you a collection of all the Notes connected at any level with the
Contact.

if you need somthing else which is note a note (annotation) write another
func instead of getAllNotes(Creteria)

the functions you need to implement are

getAllReferToRelationships(ObjectName)
which returns a Collection of Relationships
input: ObjectName, the ObjectName the Relationships refer to.

getAllNotes (Criteria )
returns a Collection of All the Note objects that fite the Criteria

Hope this helps.

CRM installation on SBS2003 or W2K3 server?

Posted: 30 Aug 2005 04:52 AM PDT

You've got it now. Yes, from what you've told me, I would suggest that you
consider installing CRM to the SBS and SQL on the WTS. SQL can handle many
databases, so you can install your accountacy software on the WTS server and
have it use the SQL Server on that box as well.

I would also recommend that you find a good partner to work with on CRM, as
it can be a complex application to install and configure.

Have you tried to install using the IP address of the CRM Server? That error
indicates that the installation cannot locate the CRM server. So it could
have been a DNS problem.

Exporting Account & Contact

Posted: 29 Aug 2005 06:49 PM PDT

To add to what Ronald has stated, you also asked if it was possible to
delete leads after importing contact/account. That's not quite how it
works, but it will appear that way to users. If you import leads, you
can then promote each one individually to a contact, account, and
opportunity. Once you have done this, the lead will be set to a state
of converted / qualified. This state will cause it to 'disappear' from
the Active Leads views, so to the user's, it basically disappears. (It
is still there in the DB, and viewable under the Closed Leads view,
however.)

Split from this thread.

I'm running into the same trouble, but on the other party of our contracts. For example, we comment/track changes, but we have no way to make sure that they open the file such that they can see the changes we've made (not everyone is responsible enough to make sure they don't miss these things). Do you know of a way to force comment visibility/all markup in a particular document?

Want to change the "Theme Fonts" across all applications in Microsoft Office 365

Is there any way to change the Theme Fonts for all of the Office applications at once?   I managed to change them on the normal template in Word,, but when I try to do a blog post, it reverts to Calibri Light for headings, and Calibri for the body.  I want to use Veranda, and Garamond  in all of the Office Applications, Outlook, Word, Excel and Power Point, as my default heading and body font.

If it involves editing Windows registry, I'm not afraid of doing that.

Further information, I need to do this process on two machines, both are running Windows 8.1, and have all current updates.

Thanks in advance.

MS word 2010 wrapping issue to page 2

I'm using MS Word 2010 I created a new document finshed typing to the end of the 1st page and continue to the 2nd page.  The problem is the 2nd does not show up unless I place a page break at the bottom of the 1st page.  I am using standard formatting.  There is only text and some bullets within the document.  I need help to determine why the 2nd page will not display or the word text will not auto wrap to page 2.  Does anyone have any ideas even where to look to see what the issue may be?  I have turned on the paragraph markers to see where I am in the document, once at the bottom of the page and doing a return nothing displays, as I would only have a 1 page document. 

Maybe my word is corrupt and I need to re-install.  I am hoping that someone by be able to give me an idea on how to fix.


Thanks for all of your help.

Word header numbering failure

Posted: 28 Jan 2015 09:45 AM PST

In creating a series of documents, I set up the styles for Header 1 through Header 4 with indents and numbering. Header 2 through 4 DO NOT restart numbering when used as follows:

1. Heading 1

    A. Heading 2

        (1) Heading 3

    B. Heading 2

        (2) Heading 3

2. Heading 1

    C. Heading 2

I expect the heading 2 to restart as A after a new heading level 1 and Heading 2 to restart as (1) after a new heading level 2.

In addition I set the hanging indent from a 0.25 to a 0.3 to create the proper spacing for heading number greater than one digit. When I manually change the numbering from (2) Heading 3 to (1) Heading 3 using the number/start numbing at feature the style for that single element changes back to the original hanging indent of 0.25 and each occurrence must be changed individually since the style still shows the correct 0.03 indent.

Footnotes not printing correctly

Posted: 28 Jan 2015 09:39 AM PST

This problem just recently started and I don't know what's changed. I have been trying to print documents with footnotes at the bottom of the page. I have custom sized pages at 8.5 x 5.5 and I have it formatted to restart the numbering (letters) on each page. Everything looks correct on my print layout view and print preview pages. However, when I actually print, the footnote lettering becomes continuous and does not restart on each page. All the drivers and software on my printer are up to date and all diagnostics check out. It used to print correctly but for some reason it's not printing correctly anymore.

Is there a fix for this?

Has anyone encountered this behavior?

split document based on delimiter while keeping the formats such as fonts, size, colors underlines and etc

Posted: 28 Jan 2015 01:09 AM PST

                                                           
Hello 

I came across below VBA to split a document into multiple documents based on delimiters

My delimiter is "/new/"

Anyways, It works fine but when creating multiple documents, 

It does so without all the settings, just like copying from Words to notepad (.TXT file) 

Could anybody have a look at below code and modify it to do the job with the setting intact?

Thanks!

Below is the code


Sub SplitNotes(delim As String, strFilename As String)
    Dim Doc As Document
    Dim arrNotes
    Dim i As Long
    Dim X As Long
    Dim Response As Integer

    arrNotes = Split(ActiveDocument.Range, delim)

    Response = MsgBox("This will split the document into " & UBound(arrNotes) + 1 & " sections. Do you wish to proceed?", 4)
    If Response = 7 Then Exit Sub
    For i = LBound(arrNotes) To UBound(arrNotes)
        If Trim(arrNotes(i)) <> "" Then
            X = X + 1
            Set Doc = Documents.Add
            Doc.Range = arrNotes(i)
           ' Doc.SaveAs ThisDocument.path & "\" & strFilename & Format(X, "000")
  ^^ this is the original code won;t work on me so modified it a bit as below. if anybody can fix this as well, it would be much appreciated.


  ChangeFileOpenDirectory "C:\Users\administrator\Desktop\docs\"
  Doc.SaveAs2 FileName:=strFilename & Format(X, "000"), FileFormat:= _
        wdFormatXMLDocument, LockComments:=False, Password:="", AddToRecentFiles _
        :=True, WritePassword:="", ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, EmbedTrueTypeFonts _
        :=True, SaveNativePictureFormat:=False, SaveFormsData:=True, _
        SaveAsAOCELetter:=False, CompatibilityMode:=14



            'doc.Close True
        End If
    Next i
End Sub


Sub test()

Hi

I have a user who has recently had Office upgraded to Office 2013 click to run. He is based in The Netherlands and asked for the Dutch proofing tool to be installed. We have installed this to other users without any issues however this user is having an issue with the grammar and thesaurus not working.

Office has been reinstalled and an online repair has taken place as well as reinstalling the Dutch proofing tool again but the issue still persists.

Is there anything you can suggest to make it work?

It's obvious if one looks at my screen that I have many documents which I made through Word prior to this crash.

However, the documents are no longer Word documents--they've become Office documents, even though I never requested Office.

Word, along with Lenovo, was a Christmas gift from 2013.  My nephew emailed me the product code

But Microsoft said this isn't the code.

So I'm prepared to try Remote assistance with a technician.  I've already given Microsoft permission to take screen shots

now with remote assistance, I hope this technician will see that my documents are all frozen in office.

I cannot open any of them.

Microsoft thinks my family never bought Word

(My nephew, by the way, is a computer engineer)

Microsoft is asking me to enter a 6 digit code in order to work with this technician

I don't see where this code is--but I need this 6 digit code.

I Word is part of Office, how can Word have disappeared if my documents are in Office?

Word 2010 Mailmerge Labels - but ask operator to pick which label position to start with

Office Word Issues / Problems.......

Posted: 27 Jan 2015 03:15 PM PST

Okay, whew......this is so frustrating.  After a recent Office update, I am now experiencing some major issues with Word.

Let me start out by saying that I am an avid Microsoft consumer.  But lately I am questioning this loyalty.  I have never had so many problems with a Microsoft product as I am now with Office / Word.  None of the earlier versions of Word did this, and why it is happening now I have absolutely no idea.  When Microsoft makes an update, or comes out with a new version of a product, they should improve on what is already there - not change the product so it doesn't work; I'm just saying.

This is the problem that I am having:

  • When I set the margins on a Word document - Office gives me a dialog box saying that one of my margins isn't correct, do I want Office to change it.  WHAT?  No, I don't !!  When I set the margins, that's where I want them.......
  • When I set up a document then go to print it, part of my document is missing.  When I click on print, I then get a dialog box stating that part of the document is out of printing range.  WHAT?  How can part of my document be out of printing range when there is enough margin room?
  • Lastly, I downloaded an envelope from Office templates that was an elegant envelope with a design on the left side of the envelope.  I've used this envelope template for years.  Now, all of a sudden, when I go to print, half of the design is missing.  The only way that I can get the design back is to make the left margin bigger.  This only makes the design and the return address look awkward because it's like in the middle of the envelope.  WHAT?  WHY??

Oh, and I have checked with my printer (HP), and everything is fine there.  It prints what Word sends to it. 

I would like to have my Office / Word be like it used to be - printing what I want to print, with the margins I set, and the printing area being what I decide it should be......!!

Please help.  This is truly frustrating me to no end.

Thank you

WORD 2010 field codes quandary.....

Hi all

I have added a validation list as a field with several selection options. I have also bookmarked this field with the name "SERVICE".

When I create a field in another part of the document, I am using this expression:  { IF SERVICE = "CONSTRUCTION" "X" "Y" }

CONSTRUCTION is a valid selection item in the field bookmarked "SERVICE", however I am getting a result of "Y" when I expect "X".

Anyone know what I am doing wrong??
