Word 2010 True Blank Page?

Posted: 03 Feb 2015 01:47 PM PST

Hello,

I use Word 2010 and i think my document is generating a true blank page.  I can't get rid of it.  I've tried looking for breaks - there are none in my document.  I've tried changing 'different even and odd page' headers - nothing.  When i do a 'print preview', the blank page is NOT in the preview.  So why is it being generated, and how do i get rid of it?

I am trying to make a template that our entire office will use.  I have the template saved as a document, and there is no 'true blank page' showing up.  It's perfect.  When i save a copy of the template, and then open the copy, i see that it has the blank page.  But the original doesn't have it.  And i'm not making any changes to the document - i'm just saving a copy.  Thanks!

Templates and Add-Ins Dialog Box Won't Open

Posted: 03 Feb 2015 01:25 PM PST

I got a new Win7 PC with Office Pro 2010. I have a document made with Word 2003 that uses a custom Template. I developed a new Word 2010 template and I'm trying to apply it to my Word 2003 (.doc) document.

I clicked on Options -> Add-Ins -> Selected Templates in drop-down -> Clicked the Go button; but the Templates and Add-Ins dialog box won't open. So, can't select the template.

I tried this with other Word 2003 (.doc) files, and I can attach the 2010 template, and everything works fine.

I don't understand what's going on. Is the original file corrupted?

Thank you.

Problem with Paragraph style

Posted: 03 Feb 2015 11:08 AM PST

While using Windows 2013, I tried using the Paragraph style for my text.  What happens is that a little black square turns up to the left of the paragraph, and I cannot move the paragraph around.  It seems stuck where it is.

Should I not be using that style for my paragraphs?

Thanks!

New Document Remains Blank

Posted: 03 Feb 2015 09:57 AM PST

Microsoft Word 2010

I can use previous documents normally.

I cannot create a new document.  The new page remains blank.  I do not see a cursor.  If I type, I do not see anything at all. When I exit the program, it asks if I want to save the document.  

This started after trying to copy and paste something from a reputable blog.

I turned off the computer and restarted it, but that did not help.

Thank you for any suggestions.

Page Number Based Fields Update Inconsistently?

Posted: 03 Feb 2015 08:13 AM PST

Microsoft Office 2013, Word 2013, Windows 7

I've got a 200+ page document with 40 chapters, etc.    There are two sections in the document.  Section 1 contains preface material and the table of contents.  Section 2 contains all the chapters.  The document will grow over time with new chapters being inserted just about anywhere.  

I'm trying to number each page in the footer, get the first page of each chapter and certain other pages on an odd page, and display the correct page numbers in a table of contents.  Sounds simple!  My problem is that even though  I attempt to force an update of field codes, they do not seem to update consistently.  For example after one update, chapters 20, 25 and 32 may wind up beginning on even pages.  After the next forced update, without changing anything in the document, some of those chapters may wind up on odd pages and a different set beginning on even pages.

Each chapter is ended with a page break. The first item on the next page is the following field...

This code is immediately followed by my new chapter header.

The intent of the code is if this is an even page, then print a blank page message and insert a page break prior to the new chapter header.  This code exists about 60-80 times in the document.  Here's an image of a result that worked.  I included the page number in the message in an attempt to troubleshoot the problems.

I wrote VBA code to attempt to force the updates.  It first updates the fields in the main text, followed by the headers and footers, and finally the table of contents.  I'm a newbie with VBA  for Word so I'm probably missing a lot!  Here's the code which I cobbled together from multiple sources:

            

Sub updateFieldsIncludeHeadersFooters()
    Dim sec As Section
    Dim hdrftr As HeaderFooter

    ActiveDocument.Fields.Update 'address the fields in the main text story
    If ActiveDocument.Fields.Update = 0 Then
 MsgBox "Update Successful"
Else
 MsgBox "Field " & ActiveDocument.Fields.Update & _
 " has an error"
End If

    'now go through headers/footers for each section, update fields per range
    For Each sec In ActiveDocument.Sections
        For Each hdrftr In sec.Headers
            hdrftr.Range.Fields.Update
        Next
        For Each hdrftr In sec.Footers
            hdrftr.Range.Fields.Update
        Next
    Next

    If ActiveDocument.TablesOfContents.Count = 1 Then _
     ActiveDocument.TablesOfContents(1).Update

End Sub

The following image shows a field that didn't appear to update...  The "Page 170..." message is clearly on page 167.

After this page it appears that many (if not all) of the fields following it didn't update either.  Right clicking the individual fields and Update works.

Any ideas, quidance?  Thanks much.

Word 2003 to 2013 - Fonts not working correctly

Posted: 03 Feb 2015 07:48 AM PST

Hello,

At the moment we are migrating a customer from Word 2003 to Word 2013.

They are using a font called "Code39" which is used for barcodes. 
When selecting this lettertype and just typing it in Word all looks goods. 

But the problem occurs when using a Word file with a file as data source.
The barcode shows distorted; it shows as a barcode with some characters in it instead of clean barcode.

When we finalize the procedure by an e-mail merge the final result is a clean barcode.

So it's primairy the output after the data source merge before the e-mail merge. 

Please assist us in this matter.

Mail Merge Labels in Office 2010

Posted: 03 Feb 2015 02:01 AM PST

Hi all,

I'm trying to merge an Excel list of reference numbers into a label template (I have a ton of archive boxes I need to label with a unique number).  I have the Excel file formatted as a single column list, and a table with the same number of columns as the  labels I want to use.

When I try and merge it into Word though I get my template populated with <<Next Record>>, and then the <<reference>> I want, but when I click Finish Merge>Print all I get are blank pages.  

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?   Been many, many years since I last set up a mail merge!

Microsoft Office 2013 stops working

Confused keyboard commands between languages

Posted: 02 Feb 2015 09:40 PM PST

A few months ago I upgraded my Swedish-language Office 2010 to an English-language Office 2013. My main reason for doing so was that the Swedish-language version of Office has different meanings for the standard keyboard commands Ctrl+F for Find, Ctrl+B for Bold and Ctrl+I for Italic. EVERYONE in Sweden who works extensively with computers HATES this feature, because ALL other software keeps the English meanings of these commands. So you have to remember a specific set of commands for Swedish Office that don't apply in any browser or DTP program (or any other software that handles simple text formatting).

So for several months now I've been greatly enjoying once again being able to use Ctrl+F for Find. But today when I started my English-language Word 2013, Ctrl+F gave me bold. Which is what it means in the Swedish-language software (F stands for "fat style" font).

It took me a couple of tries before I realized what was happening. So then I tried Ctrl+B (which is "find" in the Swedish version). And Ctrl+B ALSO gave me bold. I now have two keyboard commands for bold and none for find.

Why is it doing this and how can I make it revert to all English commands?!!!

Hi,

Well, it's not a matter of version, I just wandered we were talking about MS
Project allright..
If you want to transfer sttings, best is to copy the file Global.mpt into
each environment.

If you know what the settings are, you can also store them via Tools,
Organizer, in a file and transfer the file such that they can locally be
re-copied into the global.

The latter method is advisable if you want the different glob files to also
have settings of their own.

VSAT,
You basically want to sum up timescaled data and unfortunately that
can't be done (at least not easily) with a formula in a custom field.
But, that doesn't mean you can't get what you want. I can think of three
approaches.

First, re-structure you file as David C. suggested so the tasks from
1/1/06 through 2/28/06 are isolated. Then they will sum up automatically.

Second, use the Task Usage view and isolate the timescale to the period
of interest. Copy and paste data into Excel and sum it up.

Third, use VBA to gather the data you want and dump it into a spare
field.

how do i do task,same resource, part with units X, part units Y

Hi Jan,

Thanks for your help, the Percent allocation is what i was looking for, it
is prefered by me other than manually add the hours because i have resources
with calendar rate different than 100% so if working with Percent allocation
i dont have to calculate the hours. but somehow, i cant change the Percent
allocation, what i do is: add new task (including remaining work hours),
assign a resource and in the Task Usage View, add the Percent allocation
field and try to change but i this field is unwritable, how do i change it,
so i can set bu my self what is the Percent allocation for each week each task

Changing All Project Dates

Posted: 08 Feb 2006 04:35 AM PST

Hi Jacques,

You are welcome.

Please don't worry about *any* question ever being stupid -- Project has a
fairly steep learning curve :-)

You can tell if a task has constraints by looking at the Indicator column
(marked with the blue "i") in the Task Sheet (left side of the Gantt Chart
view.) If you typed Start or Finish dates for your tasks, chances are the
tasks are constrained and you will need to use the Adjust Dates button on
the ysis Toolbar.

The schedule of the tasks should be driven by predecessor and successor
relationships (links).
You may find it helpful to take a look at Mike Glen's series of articles on
Project at:
http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/Pub0009/LPMFrame.asp?CMD=ArticleSearch&AUTH=23

Mike does a great job stepping you through setting up a project from the
very beginning.

I hope this helps. Please post back with any further questions.

Start to Finish issue

Posted: 07 Feb 2006 06:07 PM PST

You do have it wrong. The start of the predecessor task is what drives the
finish of the successor task.
Using a Finish to Start relationship is much more common and would be have
the way you expect.

Best way to export a 2003 Project for display?

Kat,
Take your pick. There are many ways to prepare reports of Project data.
It all depends on what information you want/need to show and in what
medium you want to show it. For example, a project filtered for summary
lines may give a sufficient overview that can be printed directly. Or
perhaps one of the built-in Overview reports found under View/Reports is
a good choice. Then there is also a cut and paste option or taking a
snapshot using the Copy Picture item under the Edit menu. Some users
even get more exotic and use VBA or SQL to export Project data into
another application such as Excel, Word or PowerPoint.

As I said, it all depends on what you want to show.

Carlos,
Well I was going to caution you about the long text problem but decided
not to. Unfortunately Gantt bar labels can't be multi-line, and probably
for good reason - things could get cluttered in a hurry.

I suggest you leave off the date - that's what the timescale at the top
is for! The task name may still be too long and the only solution for
that is to abbreviate (e.g. create an abbreviated version of the task
name in a spare field and then display the spare field).

different Javascript error after hotfixes installed

Update, From the start I had troubles with our DNS connecting to the server
with CRM (W2003) from my laptop and had been connecting to the CRM through IE
on the same server.
After installing CRM on a virutal box (win2K) connecting to the same SQL
server (the W2003) I got that version going with no js error (after appliying
the correct patches and restarting the security manager).

The virtual box version of CRM had no issues. From here (W2k server) I
tried to connect to the W2003 version though IE and to my surprise no
Javascript error. So the error is only with my win2003 server.

The version of IE is : 6.0.379.1830 SP1

I will try updating it to see if that fixes it, can IE6 be upgraded to SP2
if it is a server? it is not showing up in Windows update.

Text box formatting issues from Office for Mac to Office 365

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?

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 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

When Click Office 2013 No Response or Reaction

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

Posted: 01 Feb 2015 03:16 PM PST

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.

There is a "Resolution" activity that is added to the Case that includes
this data. You can view it on the Activities tab.

if you look at the database you will see there is an incidentbase table
which stores the incident and also an incidentresolutionbase table. This
primarily has links to activities. I assume the resolution is stored as an
activity which this table points to

Timestamp on Note for and incident?

Posted: 09 Sep 2005 12:57 PM PDT

If you just want to see the time/date a note was created, you can edit the
activities associated view and add the Created On column to the view. This
view can be edited via an undoented URL. There are many posts about this
on the newsgroup, and an article on my blog with a lot of other undoented
views.

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.
