Out of the box MS CRM has no concept of TAPI and will have nothing to

However we have a product, CTi4CRM, which will connect to any TAPI

telephone system, create call records, initiat calls from within CRM

Try this;

We also have versions of this product which will drive other CRM

You will need to log in as a user that has a CRM license and CRM System Admin
role. (As a caution, if you are new to CRM, make sure you don't remove the
Sys Admin role from a CRM user unless you are certain that another user has
been assigned that role. You need to have at least one user with Sys Admin
role in CRM.)

possible to enumerate page numbers?

TJ,
In addition to tracking all of your changes, our new VAST Insights
query engine does precisely what you are looking for.

You don't HAVE to use VAST Insights to query against historical data.
You can create a query that returns the same result set as CRM views
(or CRM Advanced Find). However, as we built a custom page to display
this data, we added the page numbers for each page along the bottom of
the result set. (So if you have your Options set to 25, and the result
set has 51, you'll see 1 2 3 on the bottom of the page.)

Export email addresses? (somewhat urgent)

Posted: 22 Sep 2005 09:13 AM PDT

Andrea,

This is relatively simple to do. Go into your Settings, then choose System
Customization. Click on Contacts and then select Create a New View. Give the
view a name, like "Email addresses for export" or something of that ilk.
Then choose the fields you would like displayed (i.e. - name and email
address), add any sorting and filtering options you would like, then save
and close your new view. Go back to Sales and then Contacts and select the
view from the drop down list on the top right corner. Once the view is
displayed, click the Excel icon in the top right corner of the list and you
will have your exported list of contacts and email addresses in MS Excel
format.

You can repeat the same process for Accounts if need be. Hope this helps.

Microsoft Word - Recover Lost Documents

Recover Lost Documents

Posted: 15 Feb 2015 02:47 PM PST

How do you recover unsaved documents? I was in the middle of typing an assignment when the Surface RT decided it was time for an update (which it does all the time and is really annoying), so it lost my document. I went into word to see if I could recover it, but when I went to recover saved documents but it wasn't there. Please help.

The Tab key on mulitlevel lists not working in Tables on Word

Posted: 15 Feb 2015 10:07 AM PST

I have Microsoft Word 2013. I have a multilevel list that works normally everywhere else except for when I try to use it in a table, which I use to format my notes into cornell style. So when I use the list in the table I hit tab it will move to the next box int the table instead of moving the line to the next level. Is there a way to change this? 

Recovering Office from hard drive failure

Posted: 15 Feb 2015 10:06 AM PST

A few weeks ago Windows started alerting me that my hard drive was about to fail.  I discovered hundreds of logged errors in the log, so I decided to replace it. I purchased a solid state drive, and was hoping to clone my Windows install to it, with Office and a hundred other things.

However apparently cloning software abandons if it finds any errors on the source drive.  So I was obliged to restore to the provided factory recovery system which of course meant that I needed to reinstall everything including Office. The old drive still works, so I can read anything I need from it (unless I hit the error in doing so).

Q1. I assume there is no way to "copy" my Windows 2010 install from that drive. My Office 2010 disk and key are currently in storage (we are moving house). Or must I just wait until I get stuff out of storage?

Q2. Can I extract my Word VBA macros from inside the file structure of Office on the old drive, or do I need to boot from it again?

Issues with removing header/footer from single pages

Posted: 15 Feb 2015 05:47 AM PST

1) I need to remove the header&footer from certain pages, but the only way I found to do this is Microsoft's workaround of inserting a page break, which ruins the layout of my document. Is there any other way?

2) Since my footers consist of page numbering, removing some pages' footers messes up the page numbering. I tried right-clicking on the footer field of the page that I wanted to be "page 1", however setting the numbering to start here in fact puts a "2" in there, such that I need to set the number to 0 if I want the page to start at 1 from there.

3) Also, I notice that for some pages whose headers/footers get removed, the horizontal border line still remains, whereas for other pages, the border disappears together with the footer!

Any help with these 3 problems would be much appreciated!

Still quite some problems with Word errors

Posted: 15 Feb 2015 05:05 AM PST

I get repeated issues with Office365/Word.

What happens is the following on my Win7 laptop with Office365/32bit installed:

- I cannot get Word (or for that matter excel) previews in windows explorer (powerpoint does preview)

- Word gives me regular cannot make temp environment variable errors

- Word says the global template was opened in ready only mode and attempts to save the global template in a different place/as different file every time i exit

- When I open a document directly from windows explorer (doubleclick) word regularly fails to open (another user is using the document... although it is not open in any program at all), opens the doc in read only mode or compatibility mode for no apparent reason

I have checked my registry and the temporary internet files setting is correct.

I have checked whether the normal.dotm file and folder is ready only or read/write and it appears correct as read/write

I run word in Win7 compatibility mode and as administrator.

I have tried uninstalling and re-installing 3 times without success.

Wondering if anyone out there has a solution.  I changed to Office365 from Libreoffice 3 months ago and experience nothing but trouble with this.  Getting very frustrated...

Word Keeps Selecting Text On Its Own

Posted: 15 Feb 2015 04:28 AM PST

When using word, whenever I type a block of text whether a paragraph or page; when I leave it and return the entire document is selected on its own. I have tried everything but it continues to select text on its own. Entire blocks, documents, pages sometimes anywhere I put the cursor. I have tried re-installing and it does not work. Unfortunately I do not have a restore point before it began so I can't restore. Can anyone help?

Find and replace only in selection

Posted: 14 Feb 2015 11:15 PM PST

I want to do a find and replace ONLY within a selection. I thought I was doing something wrong, but  then I found this:

https://cybertext.wordpress.com/2014/01/13/word-replace-all-doesnt-work-on-selected-text-only/

where the user notes the same thing I found. This is surely a bug (or one of the worst design decisions in Word - and that's saying a lot!). Does  anyone know a way to make Word do what it should do?

I've been moving the selection to a blank file and doing the operations there. But this gives other problems: when I replace the selection in the original document, the page headers get messed up and one or more bookmarks are deleted. A huge pain!

Context menu for Additional Actions is not working

Hello to all,
Although I've turned on "Additional Actions" in my WORD 2010, when I right-click there's no any option in the context menu! The context menu shows only three items of which two "No Additional Actions" and "Check for New Actions ..." is gray (inactive/nonoperational) , and the third item ("Options ...") is active.
Why is that so? How can I fix the problem and make the context menu to show additional actions options?

word 2013 not all pages are shown and equation cannot be used

Posted: 14 Feb 2015 04:14 PM PST

Hi All,

I just uninstalled office 2007 and installed office 2013. When I use 2013 to open the word file created previously by 2007, problems occur that not all the pages are shown, especially for the files with more than 10 pages. Normally only the first 10 pages are shown and the rest cannot be shown (but both the word count and navigation show that the complete file is not only 10 pages). When I opened the files in draft and outline modes, the complete file is shown. Also when I saved the files as word97-03, the files are completely shown. So it is word 2013's problem rather than my word files's problem.

Although the complete file is shown in draft and outline modes, and the equations are incorrectly shown. Also, I cannot insert equation in neither the blank document in word 2013 nor the old files created by word 2007 (the built-in equations in the droplist are blank).

When I used word 2007 there was no any problem.

I find some other customers also reported these problems with word 2013 but they seems unresolved. 

Can anybody help me to look at these problems? I also called the Helpline, but the representatives seem like they are unaware of and have no idea about these problems. What a bad service!

Thanks.

So, the hour is something it knows, but day, week and month are things you

Do so in Tools, Options, Calendar.

So that would block outgoing OOF to all internet domains, and we would
enable it to allow OOF replies to certain domain, correct?

If so, that's not really what I'm wanting. I'm more looking for a way to
set the defaults for the mailbox "ExternalOOFOptions" to "internal only", so
that we can enable the automatic replies on a user basis by resetting
certain users to "External" on an as-needed basis. Something like the
mailbox limits settings where it's set by default on the info store, but can
be overridden by settings on the users mailbox.

External sender has internal email address?

Outlook doesn't create them. Exchange may, depending on your recipient
policies. If the recipient policy that gets applied has two addresses that
match the form, then you have your answer. If not, then the address would
have to have been added by a previous but now-deleted policy, or by a human

Move from SmartHost Relay to Direct - Could not deliver the message in the time limit specified

Hi

Thank you for your post.

Just to let you know I got to the bottom of it.

We still want the MailEssentials and MailSecurity for anti-spam, a second
scan on inbound mail, to perform granular internal requirements and also to
scan outbound mail. It seems that some mail servers did not like the
server's internal domain showing in the message header
"servername.ourdomain.local". Filling out the masqurade domain field on the
SMTP Server fixed the issue as this replaced the server name with
"FQDN.co.uk". All appears to be going smoothly now.

Thanks

I am editing chapters of a book. I have created a set of styles and saved them in a template with a custom name. The problem I'm having is when I need to either modify an existing style in the template or create a new one. I create or modify within the template and then Apply the revised template to an existing document using Options - Add-Ons - Template, open the template, check Automatically Update Document Styles, and click OK.  The changes that I've made to my template are not being applied to the active document. What am I missing?

Macro buttons in Word 2013

Having recently changed from Word 2003 to Word 2013, I am in the process of transferring some of my customizations.   I have been using 21 macros with my own graphic button designs.  It appears that in Word 2013 one cannot design button graphics and must choose from a given set of pre-designed graphics, none of which relate to the macro functions.  Is this true, or am I missing something?  If true, it would be another poorly designed element of Word 2013.

Word app on iPad - how to return a document to online only

Posted: 14 Feb 2015 12:37 PM PST

I am generally very happy with the way Word app on iPad works in conjunction with One Drive.

My understanding of how it works is as follows:

Any document can be found through the Onedrive folder structure. Any document, once selected, will be downloaded and any updates made will be saved to OneDrive. In addition, any document so downloaded will continue to be available offline although, if accessed when online,  will of course be updated with any changes that have be made from any other of my devices. 

This could lead to a build up of the storage that needs to be held on the iPad as I have not yet identified a way of changing a document from "available offline" back to "available online only".

My question: Is there any way of making this change? 

I have to admit that this is not actually a problem for me as I have oodles of space on the iPad but I am interested simply from a knowledge point of view.

I know that from define multilevel list yo can set up text indent, however that is the absolute text indent and there is no option to choose text indent after the number.

Also in the table of contents heading 2 and 3 shows up in the same column, therefore I would like to know why different heading do not appear shifted.

finally, all the service packs are up to date and this computer came loaded with Office 7 so there are no trial copies.

Does anyone in Microsoft know how to solve this problem?  If not, say so!

To refresh...Word templates do not work...get Template download error with such fixes as "try later" and " Make sure you are connected to the internet".

Anchoring/locking a picture (logo) to the bottom right corner of a picture content control window

Posted: 14 Feb 2015 08:59 AM PST

I am trying to create a company template in which the user (a company employee) uploads a picture via a picture content control window displaying the picture along with my company logo superimposed in the bottom right corner of the picture. I have tried several different approaches, and read the support, and forums to no avail. The pictures are generally similar in size and square or rectangular in shape, but of course they vary in size and aspect ratio based on who crops the picture and the shape of the clients facility.

The Problem:

-When the picture automatically resizes, the logo image stays in its fixed position on the page (and thus is no longer superimposed in the bottom right corner). I can't anchor the logo to a specific position within the picture content control window that moves dynamically with the shape/size of the window.

What I would like:

-No matter the size (or shape) of the picture inserted via the content control, I want the image of my company logo to stay positioned in the bottom right corner.

-Furthermore, if possible, I would like the picture to automatically resize to fit the width of the content control window (retaining the original aspect ratio) rather than resizing the window to fit the picture (Currently, when the picture is smaller than the window, it shrinks and does not fill the page properly).

We produce many of these standard documents for our clients, including an aerial photo of the client's business. The goal is to create this document with as little formatting as possible required by the employee. To save time and avoid user error, I would simply like my employee to click in the picture window, select the appropriate client aerial, and boom; picture inserted, sized to fit the window, and logo positioned in the bottom right corner.

Please help me out if anyone knows how to accomplish this.

Thanks,

MS Word does not open properly

Posted: 14 Feb 2015 06:46 AM PST

Please see the screenshot.  The second document entitled "7 - Lecture Plan..." does not open properly.  It gives me some sort of a transparent placeholder.  If there is another document that's already open, like "Exam 1 answers", I get the "Welcome back!" banner, but still can't use "7 - Lecture Plan."  I get this problem all the time!  This happens both when I click on a word doc in a documents window or when I try to open a doc from the history of recent open docs in the ribbon on the bottom of the screen.  Never had this problem before and not sure what to do.  Please help!

Slow Typing in Word for iPad

Posted: 14 Feb 2015 05:05 AM PST

Word for iPad seems to struggle with large files and typing lag. If I'm working in a small document there doesn't seem to be an issue but I'm working in a document roughly 30,000 words long and there can be a good ten seconds between hitting a key and the character appearing on-screen. It's not just that particular document either; it's any long document. I've tried resetting Word but that hasn't helped. Is there any fix for this? Otherwise I'll need to delete Word and go back to Pages which would be a major inconvenience.

Remove blank line on top of page

Posted: 14 Feb 2015 02:54 AM PST

I have a document, and between paragraphs etc there sometimes are blank lines.  The problem is that depending on the length of the paragraphs, sometimes these blank lines come at the start of the next page.  Is there a way for word to automatically identify such cases and hide an empty line when it happens at the top of a new page?

How to get different page background colors for different sections of a Word document?

Posted: 13 Feb 2015 10:50 PM PST


Hi

How to get different page background colors for different sections of a Word document? Is it possible in Word 2013 to have multiple background colors?

If not possible in Word 2013, does there exist a workaround for it using a "picture" as a  background, as described here

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2007-word/multiple-background-colours-word/f0526da0-ddfa-4cdb-b2b1-c17350330e61 ?

saving macros to a safe template

Graham,

I suspect that corporate IT departments frequently replace the Normal.dot
for several reasons.

First, it's a cheaper and easier alternative to creating doent-specific
templates that carry the correct corporate look and feel. They reckon - and
rightly so in my experience - that most users will create the majority of
their doents from a blank doent. Of course, this means that there's a
risk that the users will do something with to the styles that's not in
keeping with the corporate standards (like Heading 1 set to bold, italic,
underlined, purple, 28 pt, MS Comic Sans, with ants - says the Voice of
Experience...). By simply rolling a new version of Normal these issues become
very short-lived, and usually after the third or fourth time of having their
customisations n away, most users just give up.

Second, the Normal is regularly used as a source of corporate standard
AutoText entries, and when these need to be updated (or to rectify or prevent
modification)... you get the picture. At least the company I'm contracting to
presently has the good sense to put AutoText into an add-in.

Finally, as I'm sure you're aware, the Normal template is - or at least has
been - extremely susceptible to corruption, and the usual solution is to
delete (or rename) the Normal and allow Word to rebuild it automatically. Of
course, most users have no clue as to what's going on when errors from a
corrupt Normal start popping up, so they ring the Help Desk. Periodically
rolling out a new Normal cuts down on these calls.

As for the OP's question, I think you've covered it. ;-P

I cannot because the MUI DVD I have has CRC errors (downloading a new copy as
we speak). That being said, it copied the spanish MUI folders from the DVD
fine. The CRC errors occured only when I got to portuguese MUI folders.

"new format like xms or something " - not really as your version of Office
wouldn't handle it either. The writers of OO are continually updating the
program to be more compatible with MS Office data files. Even if they don't
have a current version to handle the xms files it probably soon will (I
haven't gone to the OO web site in a while so I don't know what their latest
and greatest is.)

I do know that they have been actively working on the file formats for
Office 2007 but again, don't know if their final product is out that
supports that file format.

You know it all started when I downloaded the Windows Uninstaller this AM as
well.
Thanks,
Iggy, I will attempt your fix.
By the way, Judy, I am not familiar with recovering my system from a certain
point in time - do I have to have backup disks to do that - or is it a System
Tool within Accessories - or what?
Thank you both for your help!
