Microsoft Word - Text box formatting issues from Office for Mac to Office 365

Microsoft Word - Text box formatting issues from Office for Mac to Office 365

Text box formatting issues from Office for Mac to Office 365

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 02:34 PM PST

Just got a new Dell computer and when I transferred over and opened one of my Word files that had been created on my Mac using Office for Mac, some of the text boxes had been changed so that each line was its' own object. So if I had a text box, say, that had 10 lines in it, there is now one big object that contains 10 smaller objects, one for each line of text. Obviously I want them to be combined again into just one text box like they were. Any suggestions? Thanks so much -

Lock a table size

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 11:07 AM PST

Is it possible to lock the size of a table in Word 2013 so that when columns are added, they are automatically resized to fit within the specified table size?  I am building internal-branding-compliant templates to be used by our less sophisticated Word users, and they complain that when they add a column to the table, it increases the table width so that it no longer fits the template.

If it's possible to lock the table width and make new columns autofit the table width, that would be my ideal solution, but I've tried every combination of "exactly" width settings and "automatically resize to fit contents" and still when I add a column, the table becomes wider.  Any suggestions?

word 2013 file issues

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 09:24 AM PST

Wo!  I have a resume and cover letter stored in my documents file.  They clearly state they are Microsoft Word Documents file types.  Yet when I try to browse for them and insert them (and this has happened on several websites), the browse window appears blank!  Any body have this issue and more importantly a solve?  I'm using surface Pro3, with cover.

Thanks. In advance!

VBA in final merged document

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 07:59 AM PST

Hi,

I'm sure this has been listed somewhere but as I'm not entirely sure what i'm doing (still learning) maybe I have not searched the right terms or something.

Basically we use word outputs from templates and merged with data from the webpage the user is currently looking at, the macro's containing the merge etc are stored in a seperate template to the output template and linked etc, these are dotm files.

To date most of the merge stuff has been pretty simple but they now want to try to do some forms the users fill in, the input boxes are activex etc and I can lock the document from editing so they can only fill in the fields after the merge has happened, that all works fine.

The problem is that I have a submit button on the form, this saves the document, puts it to outlook and sends to a certain address, I can get this to work perfectly on the template file but then as soon as I run the merge the VBA is no longer in the outputted document and the button does nothing, also there are some check boxes that they can only choose one option so if another box is selected the other unticks, again the VBA is missing from the final output.

How do i get the VBA to appear in the output document?

I really hope that makes sense.

Many Thanks

Word 2013 stuck in Draft mode (no Endnote)

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 07:00 AM PST

Word 2013 is relatively unstable for me (using lenovo x230 Table running Win 7 Enterprise). I almost got used to its inability to save documents, but yesterday it started to get stuck in Draft mode. I don't use any add-ons (like Endnote, which typically causes this problem).

I use change tracking. Every once  in a while (~ 2x a day for me) Word crashes. When I restart and reopen the document, Word is stuck in Draft mode, and I cannot get it back to Print Layout (or even Web layout). When I click the other view modes, it does nothing. The main work area goes white, when I scroll, it reverts to Draft mode. Reading layout still works fine though. Page % zooming works, but fixed zoom levels (eg page width) don't.

There does not seem to be a distinction whether compatiblity mode is on or off.

The weirdest thing is that if I somehow manage to get it back to print view (I couldn't quite pin down what helped), the page settings are changed that of my viewport in web layout (ie typically from portrait to landscape, and margins set to half of the page).

Is there any way to prevent this from happening or any workaround to fix once it already happened?

Thanks a lot!

Word 2013 multiple users, same colors for some

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 06:54 AM PST

I'm working on a document that shows changes for about six users. All but two of the users have different colors. Two users have the same colors. How can I separate the two colors, so I can identify who made which change in this color, without hovering my cursor over every single change? (I tried shutting everything down, logging off, and getting back on, and the problem did not resolve itself.)

Macro to import styles

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 05:32 AM PST

Word 2007. I have a lot of older Word documents that I want to update with my current set styles. Is there a macro that will import the styles from my Normal dot file? I've tried creating one with the Run command, but it doesn't work. It results in an error. It wants to import the styles into the document I had open when I created the macro!

Add text above table on page

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 05:20 AM PST

I have an existing document which contain several tables. 

Above each table I want to enter a line of text, although for some tables they allways start on top op a page and I am unable to add a single line just above the table.

Most likely it has to do with the table properties, but I cannot find the differences of these tables.

What could cause the table not to be able to add an empty line above it ?

Copying , Pasting and editting

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 05:19 AM PST

I am having difficulty in finding how I go about copy and pasting from  a website ( my workplace) a table/date base type format) listing and placing it on a word (2007) document so That I may edit/or add it it. When I am forced to work from home due to weather I need to make calls. I go to my company website and highlight the listing of those I need to call. I then paste onto a Word. I attempt to put notes on the document so I can forward to my boss who then adds information required for me to use. I guess because it is formatted on the website I am unable to add in a logical manner. Can anyone please give me any suggestions, advice? All will be helpful

Watermark Semi-Transparency

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 03:39 AM PST

Hi,

I used an automated process to print a large quantity of documents with Watermarks.

I am aware of the issue with semi-transparency listed here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-word/printing-watermarks/b1fe96d6-7088-4d12-982c-b46c45ad2556.

However due to the lack of user interaction with this process I cannot just uncheck this checkbox. Is there anyway to have this default to unchecked? Perhaps a Registry key of some sort?

Thanks,

James

Concurrent Review using Word

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 02:28 AM PST

Hi, would anyone be able to tell me whether the new version of Word allows for concurrent review or whether there are any bolt ons that might enable this?

By concurrent review my challenge is this - An author creates a document and then sends it out to 5 people to review - either the five people need to review in series (each taking the annotated version from the reviewer before them), or they can do it concurrently but will/may/(should? :)) all raise the same review comments.

MS Access works on the principle of a real time file - is it possible that with the new One Drive tech MS Word is going to allow the same for reviews.

I.e. I send out a doc for review to 5 people, then they all access the same file and see other peoples review comments being added in real time (if they are reviewing at the same time).

Any ideas would be gratefully received

Thanks,


Greg

Customize Word 2013 start screen (templates)

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 11:44 PM PST

On the opening screen of Word 2013 I would like to show my company's templates instead of Microsoft.com's. So in fact I would like to show the contents of the personal tab directly instead of having everyone click personal each time. Is that possible?

I have already found that I can pin a personal template to the start screen. Is it possible to distribute this setting to my colleagues (eg via office policy or registry settings)?

Cheers,

Merge cells (Excel and Word)

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 09:58 PM PST

Hi Microsoft Community,

I am just in the process of formatting multiple tables.

To avoid a lot of tedious work, I would like to know if it is possible to merge selected rows. As soon as more than one pair are highlighted, the merge option is disabled. 

In the image below I would like to concurrently merge cells so that the cell reads "65±8", "1107 49.80"%" and so on.

Is this possible in Word or Excel? (I have tried both with no success) 

Any advice or comments would be appreciated. 

Word 2013 Find not working

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 07:50 PM PST

I recently upgraded from 2006 to 2013, but am having a strange issue. I edit my own documents that I then make into ePub files.

When I am checking the .docx files, I use the Find/Replace function to highlight the Italicized typing and edit as needed.

However, I have noticed (to my dismay) that when I use Find Next and the next occurrence is over a Page line, Word fails to Gray-highlight the occurrence.

Does anyone know how I can stop this from happening? Please?

MsgBox in Word 2010

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 06:40 PM PST

I have a form where, at one point, the user tabs through a list.  As the cursor lands on each item in the list, the user is asked if they want to delete or retain that particular item.  I need to give the user the additional option of changing the item in the list.  Therefore:

1.  Is it possible to change the options in a MsgBox from "Yes" / "No" to "Yes" / "No" / "Change text"?

2.  If this is possible, how is it done?

3.  If this is possible, how do I then allow the user to enter text if they select "Change text"?

Each item in the list is a text form field from the Legacy Forms.

lost files using Microsoft Word 2013

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 04:57 PM PST

I was using word to create a document and saving as i went, at the time my laptop was connected to the internet so it was always being backed up online aswel. Over the last week i had to use my laptop (and the word document) offline, but i was still saving the word document after each session on there. (I'm guessing to just the C drive as no internet for online). 

Today I turned my laptop on (it now has internet connection) and opened the document, it briefly showed my last paragraph i saved (when i was working offline), but then it disappeared. All that document now shows is the work i initially saved whilst laptop was previously connected to the internet. Everything i created whilst working offline is nowhere to be found.

Does anyone have an idea to get back what i saved whilst working offline?

im using windows 8.

thank you.

word 2013

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 04:25 PM PST

ok...so my wife is using word 2013 and a weird problem has come up.  When she saves a document and then reopens it, the page layout is all messed up.  It says it is 13 inches wide and doesn't show page breaks.  She has a certain template she has to follow for her school and with these problems, she can't do so.  We have checked the page layout, it says the paper is 8.5x11, the margins are correct, the orientation is correct, we have show page breaks checked......this is very frustrating.  I have even uninstalled and re-installed office and that didn't work either. 

Any help would be most appreciated.

Latvian Language Pack for Word 2013 does not work

I purchased the Latvian Language Pack for Word 2013.  I installed the 32-bit version.  I went to Options and Language, added it, and said it is the default language.  This setting does not hold, because the default is always English.  If I go to the bottom of the screen and change to Latvian, it does not display Latvian characters.  Any suggestions?  Thank you.

2nd CRM in same domain

Posted: 09 Sep 2005 07:47 AM PDT

I have successfully installed multiple versions in the same Domain several
times (even with the same license keys). The big gotcha though is Exchange.
As John mentioned, the router only works forinbound email against a single
CRM instance. If you only want outbound email, it is possible to get it to
work, but takes some effort.

The key in AD though is to specify a seperate parent OU. You will also need
dedicated SQL & IIS machines for each instance as.

If you are preparing for the upgrade process,then you should also consider
using the Redeployment Tool to put a copy of your current system in the
"test" system.

Niel,
I have a test environment in 1.2 for CRM. You need the following
things:
New Domain Controller with new domain
New Exchange Server
New CRM Server
New SQL Server

Also, these servers can be done on Small Business Server 2003, but its
a pain, so I would recommend if you have a beefy machine, start from
scratch with Windows Server 2003 Standard, and build up from there.
Ideally, I would recommend two separate machines, one for AD/Exchange
and the second for CRM/SQL just so you can troubleshoot problems
efficiently. Also, for the actual deployment, use the Microsoft CRM
ReDeployment tool provided at www.microsoft.com/downloads in the CRM
section. Follow those instructions to the letter, and just use your
original license keys to get an accurate depiction of what your
production environment is so the test will show you what you are up
against for the new version.
Good luck with all of that.

Outline Numbering Will Not Work - Word 2013

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 02:15 PM PST

In Word 2003, I clicked "outline numbering," and all I had to do to change levels is hit "indent;" In 2013, the levels will not change, i.e., I get 1), 2), 3), instead of 1), a), i), or whatever the list is supposed to have.


CORRECTION: Word 2013 doesn't like my macros, which simply tell it to indent or de-indent, using f12 and f11; I simply recorded the macro, like I have a dozen times, and it doesn't work in my lists.

WORD 2010 sometimes forces save as new document

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 08:55 AM PST

WORD 2010 sometimes forces me to save as new doc when I add text to an existing doc.

When this happens, I copy the existing document with my changes and rename the document by adding a 2 to the existing document name, save it

then delete the original document rename the new document by deleting the number 2 from the name.

This should not be happening, how do I prevent it from happening in the future?

My office Document is Completely Cluttered with horizontal lines.

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 08:27 AM PST

Some time back while making a Document I put down a horizontal line in order to make a page break not knowing it could repeat itself over and over again do to formatting. I figured out how to format it so that it won't keep repeating but now I have a huge document full of horizontal lines. Every time I try to delete one a new line pops up. I read that the formatting has put a horizontal line under all my paragraphs they are just invisible. If that is case then the document is to long for me to reasonably delete every single line for every single paragraph. I found a third party application called Kutools on the website Extend Office that claims to have an app that can delete all horizontal lines within a document. This sounds like just what I need to fix my problem but I am not sure this third party site is on the level. Is there a way within the existing word 2013 processor that I can delete all the Horizontal lines without affecting the rest of the document? And if not is this Kutools a safe third party app? This problem has plagued me for a while now and I hope to find a solution. Thanks in advance.  

Word Table of Contents Question

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 05:44 AM PST

Hi,

I mark several headings with Heading 1 styles so they will appear in an automatic table of contents.

I then go to one of the headings in my document that I marked with Heading 1 style and then also format it as bold and yellow.

However when I generate an automatic Table of Contents, the heading that I added bold and yellow to, appears in the table as bold and yellow.  But I don't want it to appear as bold and yellow in the table of contents.   I want it to look like the other entries in the table of contents.

How can I do that?  thank you very much

Removing stubborn solid horizontal lines from Word document

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 05:11 AM PST

I have placed a number of lines in a Word document to break it into sections.

I did this by holding down shift on the keyboard and hitting the underline key. I would now like to delete o of these lines, both of which, for some reason I do not understand, are bolder than the other lines on the page.

You would have thought that it would have been  simple enough, but clicking at the end of the line and  pressing "Delete" just deletes adjacent text rather than the itself. I do not see to be able to select the lines, either, to delete them.

I presumably must have done something to cause them to be so entrenched, but can anyone please suggest how I can delete them?

Available fonts for Complex Scripts in Microsoft Word Paragraph style

Posted: 31 Jan 2015 04:26 PM PST

An interesting feature of Microsoft Word when writing documents which include Left-to-Right and Right-to-Left scripts (for example, Latin characters and Hebrew characters) in the same paragraph, is that you can create a paragraph style which allows you to change automatically the font from Left-to-Right to Right-to-Left or viceversa when changing the Windows Keyboard: Modify the Paragraph Style, click on the Format button and then use the text boxes Latin script and Complex script.

The problem I have is that I cannot choose any Hebrew font for the Complex script. For example, the excellent SBL Hebrew font which I have installed in my Windows 7 does not appear on the list of available fonts for Complex Script. What can I do in order to make this font or other Right-to-Left fonts appear on the list?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Missing Themes in Office 2013

Posted: 31 Jan 2015 04:13 PM PST

Hello,

I am a college student in the United States and I purchased a version of Office 2013 to go with my new Windows 8.1 laptop from the university bookstore. While everything has worked great for the past 6 months or so, I am now taking a SAM 2013 course that requires I have Office 2013 and all themes installed. The problem is - I don't. For some reason, I only have ten. This is in both Word and PowerPoint.

While this ordinarily wouldn't be a problem for me, I have to have specific themes installed to do the course. I'm not sure if any of my fellow students who bought Office 2013 from the bookstore have the same problem or not. I've yet to find a definite solution anywhere, or someplace to download these, so I'm just posting this question in the hopes that someone at Microsoft will get on this and resolve it quickly.

Additional information:

I've checked for updates, and Office 2013 is up-to-date.

My computer is also up-to-date.

I don't have any malware present on my computer.

I have plenty of hard drive space and RAM is not an issue.

All Office programs otherwise work the way they're supposed to.

I posted this under the Office Topic of "Microsoft Office Word" because I need the theme for Word right now.

Thank you,

Matthew Baker

The "problem" is that F-11 now has introduced a policy kit
which requires that RPM's be installed from the command line.

Got them installed once I found that out...
but unfortunately I cannot use Fedora 11


I still have Fedora 10 installed but occasionally I get garbled
printing...and it was suggested that I try Fedora-11 as all the bugs
should have been ironed out


First print job out of Fedora-11 was garbled...
so I went back to Fedora 10

WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 16: Deviceor resource busy.

Posted: 16 Aug 2009 01:26 AM PDT

Thanks to everybody.

I formatted the two partition. everything is fine now excluding label
in the fat partition.
is mtools the only way to change label of a fat partition?

another little question: I googled for permission issues with ext3
partitions and found out that the solution is calling 'sudo chown -R
username /dev/sdc'. I tried this but nothing has changed; to have
write permission to my ext3 partition I had to call also 'sudo chown -
R user /media/Elements'. Is this last command enough to do the trick
or is it necessary to change owner to both the device and the mount
point?


thanks again
Christian

Yes, "type" is a Bash builtin but the commands are not the same. "which"
locates a command in $PATH. It searches only for executable files in the

printf is a shell builtin

$ which printf
/usr/bin/printf

If I execute

$ printf "foo\n"

it will use the shell builtin. So, if you need to know "what will be

check "type X". "type" can also tell if command is a shell function:

As another shot in the dark I have found it the least frustrating to turn off

Microsoft word template broken if edited with German instead of English WORD 2010

Posted: 31 Jan 2015 09:39 AM PST

Hello,

I wanted to use the template on the following website:

https://neuraldischarge.wordpress.com/2013/11/05/the-only-phdmasters-thesis-template-for-word-you-will-ever-need/

Unfortunately, it only works with an English version of Word 2010. When using word 2010 with German as interface language, several aspects of template do not work anymore as intended. First, the table of contents is not compiled correctly anymore. Second, headers and footers do not display automatically the document title or chapter title respectively.

I would be grateful for suggestion of how to fix these bugs. Thanks!

Disappearing document in Word 2010

Posted: 31 Jan 2015 09:00 AM PST

My husband has a Lenovo Thinkpad laptop with a usb keyboard and uses Word 2010.  Periodically when he is using Word, the text starts disappearing--it quickly backspaces through the text he has input.  It does not appear to happen when he is using the laptop keyboard.  It does still happen when he tried a different keyboard.  We're trying plugging the keyboard directly into his computer so not sure if the problem will persist.  Any ideas why this might be happening?

Thanks

Word 2013 paragraph.words enumeration in infinite loop.

Posted: 31 Jan 2015 03:02 AM PST

I have discovered that under some circumstances, using Word 2013 under Windows 8.1,  enumerating words in a paragraph goes into an infinite loop after the Unicode 0330 character (and possibly other diacritics).  Word 2007 does not display the same problem.  Has anyone else seen this? I can provide a small file that shows the problem.  Here is some code to demonstrate it.

Public Sub ListWords()
    Dim theStory As Range
    For Each theStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges
        Dim theParagraph As Paragraph
        For Each theParagraph In theStory.Paragraphs
            Dim theWord As Range, WordCounter As Integer
            WordCounter = 0
            For Each theWord In theParagraph.Range.Words
                WordCounter = WordCounter + 1
                If WordCounter > theParagraph.Range.Words.Count Then
                    'MsgBox "The paragraph has a problem", vbCritical
                    Debug.Print WordCounter - 1 & vbTab & theParagraph.Range.Text
                    Debug.Print "Problem after [" & theParagraph.Range.Words(WordCounter - 2).Text & "]"
                    Exit For
                End If
            Next
        Next
    Next
    MsgBox "Finished Processing", vbOKOnly, "Finished"
   
   
End Sub

Bullet Hanging Indent Adjacent to Text Box

Posted: 30 Jan 2015 05:59 PM PST

Hi there - I'm struggling in Word 2013 with a hanging bulleted list adjacent to a text box.  

I have a text box about 2 inches wide and 9 inches long flush with the left side of the page. The text wrapping for the box is set to square, distance from text 0" top and bottom, 0.13" left and right. The main text of my report is to the right and outside of the text box. I've set up a style called bullet1 that I use throughout the document. The Style settings for bullet1 are indentation: 0", hanging: 0.25", left tab stop: 0.25".

Where I use the bulleted list adjacent to the text box, I cannot get the second line to indent. I've right clicked on the bullet at the Adjust List Indents and have the following settings: Text Indent 0.25", Follow number with Tab character, and add tab stop at 0.25."

I have bullet lists elsewhere in the document where there are no text boxes, and the second line indents perfectly. If I copy/paste those same bullets next to the text box, the second line loses the indentation.

There are no section breaks in my document.

Thanks in advance for your help

How to get a CRM 3.0 beta trial version? UK.

Posted: 09 Sep 2005 01:15 AM PDT

The beta started a very long time ago. They have progressed through the
Alpha version to TAP1, TAP2, and just this week TAP3. Customizations made in
TAP3 will be exportable to future releases of MSCRM (Say RTM in Q4'05 and GA
Q1'06). So my belief is that the product is ready to roll.

The product will be made available to partners the first week of October to
demo and load in "TEST" environments for customers to begin retrofitting
customizations, etc. This early access code is not upgradable to RTM so
production usage is not supported however, like I said the customizations are
transportable.

Look for good things. Very nice release. They have listened to their
partners and customers.

Best of luck.

User Access Error!

Posted: 08 Sep 2005 07:58 AM PDT

Can you start up the deployment manager? In that case, you should try to add
a new user. This user should be member of the 'System administrators' CRM
Group. And give this user the best licence available. Then login to crm with
this user and give the administrator a licence and role.

Another way is to obtain the admin pack.

Hope this helps,

I don't think there is such an addon for sale directly. You might want to

Crystal configuration manager fails to start

Elena;

Have a look at article 901226 on the PartnerSource/CustomerSource
knowledgebase. It talks about DEP (Data Execution Protection). When I had
the problem with Crystal and SP1, it was beacuse of this. It's a simple fix
if this is the cause of your problems.

Hope this helps..

Table Size Limitations

Posted: 08 Sep 2005 01:41 AM PDT

All text in MSCRM is unicode, that is why each character takes two bytes.
MSCRM 1.2 puts all custom fields directly into the *Base table, there is no
extension table. This will be fixed in 3.0.
In addition, MSCRM 1.2 uses tion for SFO, which adds some overhead to
each table, and this further reduces the available row size below the SQL
Server 8K limit.
