Why are my text align icons dimmed and not working? The only thing I can remember changing is disabling the NaturallySpeaking 12.5 voice recognition add-on. I enabled the add-on again, but I still have the same dimmed problem.

How do I show the identification of a bookmark when setting up a form?

Posted: 20 Feb 2015 11:37 AM PST

I have created a form with three text boxes (Fname, Lname, Address).  Everything works.

However then I look at the form before the text box is used to fill in the bookmarks,
all I see is the three brackets representing where the information is to be.

Is there any way to show which bracket belongs to which text box without going through a

how to deal with irregular line distances in mixed english-chinese text

Posted: 20 Feb 2015 02:19 AM PST

I am using 8 point Arial English text and Chinese traditional with 8 point Mingliu font and simplified text with 8 point Songti font in one document. Lines with both English and Chinese have a slightly larger line distance than lines with only English, giving the whole document a very irregular structure. Does anybody know how to get these different fonts to use the same line distance?

Restricting PrintDate to specific pages only ...

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 11:02 PM PST

Hi all,

I have a very large document, broken up into sections, containing a footer with a Last printed on: [PrintDate] Quick Parts field.

So far so good, except that each section is treated as a single document to the extent that when I print it I want the date to change the date only in the section I have printed.

I've tried everything I can think of. I can't find any switches that will do the job, I've tried removing "Link to previous" in each section's footer. All to no avail.

I'm sure there's an answer out there, just can't find it without your help!

Grateful thanks in advance.

Adding rows to a table, with calculations

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 09:31 PM PST

I have a locked form with a table with seven columns in it.  I need to be able to add rows to the table as needed.  To do this I used Graham Mayor's "Alternative method of adding a row to a protected table" macro from http://www.gmayor.com/word_vba_examples_2.htm and it works beautifully.

BUT .........

I now need to calculate column B multiplied by column C and the answer sits in column D as well as column C multiplied by column E and the answer to that sits in column F and this is to continue for every row that is added.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

capital A loses its horizontal line

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 08:21 PM PST

Suddenly capital A loses its horizontal  line in Times Roman in font 12 and several other even sizes (but not all and not odd sizes and not other fonts). It works in OpenOffice (Libre) and Notepad but not in Word, Excel (both version 2000) or Edit Pad Lite. Can someone figure out why?

How do I merge data from one file into another (not insert text)

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 05:56 PM PST

Let's say I have created a letterhead and need to insert it in many merge documents.  The partner list is on the letterhead, but it is constantly changing.  I'd like the partner list to be a separate document and am looking for a command to insert the partner list into all the merge documents I create.  That way, when the partner list changes, I only have to edit ONE document and the future merges will reflect the updated partner list.  I looked in the Field menu, where I suspect there is a command to insert a text file or other Word document, but it's not obvious to me where this is, so perhaps someone can enlighten me.

Thanks.

Word 13: Series of astrisks caused a dotted line to appear.

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 04:47 PM PST

I was working on my latest novel and I use ************ to denote a passing or changing of time in a paragraph. When I reinstalled Office 13, I'd forgotten to turn off the conversion.

So now I have a series of dashes across the entire width of my page and cannot get rid of them.

I tried using the ctrl+Q, but lost me formatting and didn't remove the  dashes. So I closed and didn't save to maintain the formatting (17 chapters in I don't want to have to reformat the book)

So does anyone have any ideas on how to get rid of these dashes that run the width of the page?

Thanks.

How to CONFIRM I want a Word doc deleted

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 02:57 PM PST

When I rename a Word doc I sometimes accidentally hit "delete" instead of "rename."

In my old Word program it would ask me if I was sure I wanted to delete  the document...but not this one, it just DELETES IT! So I have to go into the recycle bin to restore.

Is there any way to set it up so it lets me confirm I really want it deleted before automatically trashing it?

Thanks!

2013 Word will NOT print envelopes correctly!

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 02:29 PM PST

 Hi, I am just at my wits end!

Word 2013 will not print my envelopes as they show in Word 2013.  I set up the envelope to print the delivery address.  No need for a return address.  The envelope looks great on the screen, when you print preview - it looks great as well.  Sometimes, you will hit print button and nothing happens.  If you hit the quick print button, the envelope will print, but prints the delivery address at the top of the envelope.  NOT where the return address goes, but randomly about 2 inches in from the left and literally right at the top of the envelope.

PLEASE HELP!  I have a Lexmark 543dn printer.  The printer works in every other way and used to work FINE when I had windows explorer, but since WORD 2013 has been installed, it WILL NOT PRINT!  HELP!!!!  

THANKS - MARY F. ADAMS

Word 2010 Page of Pages

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 12:51 PM PST

Hi all. There are many instructions on how to start new pages using sections, however, I am unable to find any info regarding modifying the "Pages" part or the {NumPages}.

For example, lets say we have a document with 90 pages (including title and TOC). Now, there's 1 page for title and 7 pages for TOC making 8 non-body pages.

Ok so it's easy enough to have the TOC page numbers in roman numerals and the first page of the rest of the body of text starting at 1. One Section BTW.

However, when one gets to the end of the document, it reads Page 82 of 90, which really doesnt make any sense and throws off anyone reading it when you get to the end of the document, you think you've lost eight pages!! Other than adding it manually, what I want is {NumPages}/Pages, or whatever it takes, to display the number of pages for that last page as Page 82 of 82 NOT Page 82 of 90.

Just a bit more intuitive I'd think.

Anyone know if this is possible or is it another one of those Microsoft GOTCHAs?

Thanks.

Macros and Tables in Word

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 12:50 PM PST

I am trying to update an old technical manual in Word 2013.  Each page contains a table with three boxes (2 columns, 2 rows, 2nd row merged).  I am trying to utilize a macro to automatically set new column and row sizes.  I have been messing around with Macros and have attempted simply deleting the bottom row (merged) and then running a specified column width macro but there must be a way to combine them and only cycle through once.  Or even better, to NOT have to delete the 2nd row (and lose the data that is in the merged cell).   

the macro is; 

Sub SetColumnWidths2()      Dim t As Table      For Each t In ActiveDocument.Tables          t.Columns(1).Width = InchesToPoints(5.31)          t.Columns(2).Width = InchesToPoints(1.5)          Next t  End Sub

there is a .ppt image in each of the tables that I would like to resize as well but that may be too much to ask for... 

Thank you in advance programmer gurus, and please let me know if my request does not make any sense!

Possible to change the Default value for "Add Space After Paragraph" Option?

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 11:36 AM PST

Hello All,

Microsoft Office Version: Office Professional 2010 --> Word

OS: Windows 7 Professional

I was wondering if there was a way to change the Default "12pt" spacing that gets used for the Add Space After Paragraph option, to a different value other then the default?

I don't want X pt spacing after EVERY paragraph, which is why I'm trying to change the default 12 pt to another value. Otherwise, I could just click the Set as Default button in the Line Spacing Options, but that would cause there to be that number of spacing after EVERY paragraph.

So basically I want to change the default 12pt Add spacing after paragraph value to let's say 6pt. So whenever I would click the Add Space After Paragraph option it would insert 6pt instead of the default 12pt...

Does that make sense?

Any thoughts or suggestions would be grealty appreciated!

Thanks in Advance,

Matt

Word 2010 changes default printer to PDF after saving a docx as a PDF

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 07:02 AM PST

After preparing a Word 2010 document and saving it as a .docx file, I then save it again as a PDF, using the drop down "Save As File" menu in Word. Thereafter, every time I try to print a document from the Web, up comes PDF instead of my default HP printer, and I have to manually change back to my printer.  I have checked to be sure it was still set at the default printer, and it is.  How can I correct this? Thanks for your help.

Word 2013 keeps embedding fonts not used in the document

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 05:35 AM PST

Hi all,

I am fighting with big file size.

I have MS Word 2013 document saved in docx format.

I use three custom fonts, so I want to save them in the docx file as well.

The file size with embedded fonts is about 5MB. Filesize without embedded fonts is about 300kB.

I looked into the docx file and realised, that there are fonts that I do not use in my document, or in any of the document styles, like:

- Times New Roman

- Symbol

- Wingdngs

- Cambria (2MB!!)

Does anyone have idea how to get rid of them?

Thank you

Sporadic Issue when saving as pdf in Word 2010

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 03:37 AM PST

I'm currently absolutely baffled by an issue I have when trying to Save As PDF in Word 2010.

When I go through the Save As dialog, and change my filetype to pdf and click save, sometimes I get the message 'The file is in use by another application or user'.  I say sometimes, because sometimes I don't get this message and the file saves as expected.  This can be hit and miss on the same file from the same location if tried multiple times through that save dialog.

I'm thinking it's probably a timing issue with a temporary file, but I really don't know why it's happening or how to prevent it from happening, and it is not happening on multiple instances of Word 2010 installed around our company.

Has anyone experienced this issue before, and if so, do you know of a fix as I'm completely stumped.

Kind regards,

Jason

Picture Truncated in Word Table

Posted: 18 Feb 2015 07:49 PM PST

I have below Word 2013 table that has shapes inserted and aligned as "in line with text." Alignment is set to center (horizontal and vertical).  Everything looks perfect on my machine (WIN 8.1 / Office 2013). 

Here is what my version looks like.

When I paste the table into the body of an Outlook email, the recipients see below truncation of the top of the object:s.  But, my version continues to render correctly, even after being pasted into the email body.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Multiple Legacy Text Boxes on same line - stop movement

Posted: 18 Feb 2015 05:54 PM PST

I have a form with 3 boxes in Word and I used legacy text boxes for peers to enter in data.

When someone starts typing a name (for example) in text box 1, text box 2 and 3 (on the same line as text box 1) all shift to the right and mess up the formatting.

How do I stop this?  Do I need to create columns?  Oh boy...

Add bookmark switches to Table of Contents for a document with several sections

Posted: 18 Feb 2015 04:17 PM PST

I would like to add bookmark switches to Table of Contents for a document with several sections.  That is, each the document has bookmarks named S1, S2 and S3.  In the footer of each section the page numbering follows the total pages for all sections.  That is,

The footer of section 1 has the code:

Page { Page } of { = { PAGEREF S1 } + { PAGEREF S2 } + { PAGEREF S3 } }

The footer of section 2 has the code:

Page { = {Page} + { PAGEREF S1 }  } of { = { PAGEREF S1 } + { PAGEREF S2 } + { PAGEREF S3 } }

The footer of section 3 has the code:

Page { = {Page} + { PAGEREF S1 }  +  { PAGEREF S2 }  } of { = { PAGEREF S1 } + { PAGEREF S2 } + { PAGEREF S3 } }

Each section shows the total number of pages in the document (the sum of the three sections) and the individual page number of that page within the sections.  That is, each section has 2 pages so the footers show:

1 of 6

2 of 6

3 of 6

4 of 6

5 of 6

6 of 6.

The Table of contents, however, does not obey this method.  That is, the items on the first page of section 3 are listed as page 1 in the TOC and not page 5.

I have tried { TOC \b S3 \o "1-3" } but that did not work.

Please tell me how to set the field codes so that this would work.

Thanks LV; I will try to copy each disk to a folder and share. I do not know
the version of the floppies, but I do know I have done this at least twice on
other computers in the past, including my PC and the floppies have allowed me
to upgrade using the 2003 upgrade CD.

Thanks, Peter, for the link. I've downloaded the cleanup utility, but found
nothing to remove (Office specifically) after uninstalling Version 2007 -
After reinstalling Office again, the same problem is still present.

I'm open to aother options...

Installing Crystal Reports for MSCRM

Posted: 05 Oct 2005 06:49 AM PDT

Yes, the CD lets Crystal see the Microsoft CRM database in a usable way.
Otherwise you would need to create a connection directly to SQL and try to
make sense of the lowest level tables in CRM. (CRM uses a meta-layer to
present the data, and this is what you will be connecting to with the Crystal
Enhancements.)

By the way, the next version of CRM, while still supporting Crystal, will be
using SQL Reporting Services - much more powerful and, of course, a Microsoft
product.

CRM Security Service not starting on reboot

Posted: 04 Oct 2005 01:03 PM PDT

Thanks for your reply Jani. That's interesting that changing the account
solved the problem. However, I'd rather not create an account for this
service or use the administrator account.

Yesterday, as a work around, I decided to set up a scheduled task to start
the service for me 20 minutes after the scheduled reboot. That seems to have
done, because the server rebooted last nigth and all was well this morning,
but I'd still like to get to the bottom of the issue.

Thanks again for your post.

I know I also had some problems installing rs and crm on the same box. But I
have managed to get rs to create a new iis website. If I recall correctly
all I did was rename the default website, and set a hostheader.

Sad, but true. However, since the Quote was "activated", then it became
read only, except for marking it as won, etc. From a historical
perspective, it should be revised prior to flagging as won.

You could remove the map from the Lead to Opportunity on the Owner field.
Haven't tried this myself, but it might do the trick.

If you meant by descriptors the security roles for that user, he has a
business unit access level to append for the activities and append to for the
object he is trying to send to. and he is the owner of that object anyways.
Does he need any more permissions??

Hi Matt,

Glad to here from you again.
I donwloaded a patch 831202 which corrects the database version problems for
the DMT, but had to change the Version numbers in the registry for the
Database from 1.2.3297.101 to 1.2.3297.0 to apply it.
All is working fine. I just need to review the doentation on the DMT
before i use it.
Matt, do you know of any way besides a addon utility that i can import
Contacts into the CRM without creating duplicates?

Internet Explorer has a build in pop-up blocker as you might know.
Try adding the URL of the CRM site to the pop-up blocker in the list of
allowed sites.
You can also try to add the URL of the CRM site to the Trusted Sites, or
Local Intranet security groups in Internet Explorer.

Cayla,

Thanks for the responds, but as i posted in my previous post we already
checked this.
We only have one website, which is named Microsoft CRM Version 1.2, on port
80. The host header of that website is blank.

I also do not see what any of these settings would make the generated XSL

Sales for Outlook, CRM Appointment lost one tab

Posted: 30 Sep 2005 12:28 AM PDT

Thank you from quick reply.

I might have little problem here, custom forms is completely empty.

Perhaps it is best that I re-install outlook client at this point.

Also something wrong with SQL part as CRM is pointing directly at
<ourserver> not <ourserver>\CRM

I did have lot of problems when installing, I think that I have installed
CRM around 20 times, everytime I got different result, now it works via web
browser so I don't like touching CRM installation again ;)

One odd thing is that when installing I did choose http://<ourserver>/crm
but still it is accessible only from http://companyweb

Maybe because of these oddities our Outlook client won't work properly,
funny thing is that it did work one day and after clearing cache it worked
another day, until it finally lost all forms.

CRM is kind of magical piece of software :)

Failed to add new String attribute ??

Posted: 29 Sep 2005 06:54 PM PDT

Hi,

The next version does solve this issue. They have decided to separate the
attribute tables into a systemgenerated and an usergenerated table.
Furthermore does the user get the possibility to delete attribute fields from
crm. Yes, in theory it is still possible to get to that limit, but that
wouldn't be a regular system anymore.

With kind regards,

CRM 1.2 Post Event COM+ Handler

Posted: 29 Sep 2005 11:18 AM PDT

Got it working now! Our post-event handler is capturing the Create,
Modify, Delete events.

At first I thought it had something to do with the COM+ object, GUID,
permissions, or some combination. But the confusion for me (and the
reason our COM+ object wasn't getting called) came down to the SQL
script...the following is an excerpt which updates the EventMask for
the specific ObjectType code (in this case 3=Opportunity, 4=Lead, ...
see the CRM 1.2 SDK for the full listing):

-- ... OTHER SCRIPT...

--Opportunity (post-create, post-update, post-delete)
select @entityid = EntityId from Entity where ObjectTypeCode = 3
update Entity set EventMask = 1 where ObjectTypeCode = 3

insert into EntityEventSubscribers(EventId, EntityId, SubscriberId,
CalloutOrder, IsEnable, IsAsyncHandler) values
(2, @entityid, @subscriberid, 0, 1, 0)
insert into EntityEventSubscribers(EventId, EntityId, SubscriberId,
CalloutOrder, IsEnable, IsAsyncHandler) values
(8, @entityid, @subscriberid, 0, 1, 0)
insert into EntityEventSubscribers(EventId, EntityId, SubscriberId,
CalloutOrder, IsEnable, IsAsyncHandler) values
(32, @entityid, @subscriberid, 0, 1, 0)

UNcleb, Thanks for your suggestion... Well, that tolerant with the CRM
limitation if customer allow. But in finance, each number is important and
futhermore there will be alot of multiplication and division calculations
involved in those fields which need high precision. Any say from Microsoft ?

Apart from that, i wonder why the float data type has the same max value as
integer. I thuoght it should be much higher ?? Any data type has high max

In our organization we have sales reps and customer service reps. Our
CS reps upsell clients and assist in value added services.

Sales reps have only the "salesperson" role(under the Roles tab) and a
sales license(under the License tab) of the user settings.

Our CS reps have 2 roles "CSR" and "salesperson". They have a Sales
and CS license. For us this is combined in the Professional Suite
License (which is Sales + Support). Hope that helps.

Error Adding Users to CRM

There is one user added to the CRM System now and I have tried getting that

receives a message stating that an error has occurred. Please contact your
system administrator.

I was going to see if she could access the system and add a user, but no luck.

I don't know if something is wrong with the install as a whole and it should
be reinstalled or if this is just something minor that can be resolved??

Please advise.
