Exchange 2007 SPF - sender ID

Posted: 18 Sep 2008 06:43 AM PDT

If Exchange is not the first host to process the email, you need to
configure the internal IP list at:

Organization Configuration | Hub Transport | Global Settings | Transport
Settings <properties> | Message Delivery

Here you put the IPs of any hosts handling emails before Exchange.

Outlook calendar appointments Issue

Posted: 17 Sep 2008 09:35 AM PDT

Hello Ian,

Thanks for your post and Lanwench's input.

Besides, please try to delete the ost file from c:\doents and
settings\user\local settings\application data\microsoft\outlook. When you
open Outlook next time, it will try to sync with Exchange Server and then
generate a new ost file there.

Note: It may take long time to sync with Exchange Server if you have a lot
of email.

Meanwhile, you may also create a new Outlook profile for user B and C to
test again.

Posted: 16 Sep 2008 07:07 AM PDT

Are you saying you can't find the place or are you saying that you
have found the place but there aren't any connectors there?
If it's the latter you can just create the connector although I'd be
interested to know why there aren't two connectors there.

Did you have problems, failures or anything when you installed the
box?

Incoming messages problem

Thanks for the reply ED. It turns out that the spam filtering software was
configured to Spool automatically if the mail server blinked. Problem with
this was that it wasn't configured to Unspool when the mail server came back
up. So last weekend everyone stopped getting mail and they didn't notice
until Wednesday - pretty funny if you think about it. : ) Thanks again.

You could clone a domain controller and build an off-network of your

restore the database. You can copy the messages in question using Outlook
to a PST and transport that to the production network.

Miha,
Go to the Exchange Management Console> Go to Server Configuation> Select Hub
Transprort. Create a New Recieve Connector. Create a new connector, Make
sure the remote IP range you add contains the IP of the server that host your
internal application. Go to the properties of the connector you created and
go to the Authenication tab. Select Externally Secured. This should do the

Edge Transport Queing mail

Posted: 10 Sep 2008 05:20 PM PDT

Yeah, I've looked at that, as you can see from my original post, the
Test-EdgeSynchronization works OK.

The only thing I can figure, is that when it first went down, my guy through
it was a certificate problem, so he generated a new certificate. Which I
think is what caused this descrepancy.

I'm back up and running by restoring the edge Transport server from the
previous day, but I've got 150 e-mails in the queue of the "broken" transport
server that look to be something other than spam (weird, I know).

So I need to try to bring it online today, to at least get those mail
messages off of it. My plan is to empty all the queues, shutdown the restored
copy, bring up the broken one, and try to re-subscribe using these steps:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb125236(EXCHG.80).aspx

I've searched through much of KBs and Technet... my biggest fear at this
point is that everything is working, and by trying to get these messages I
may break what I ahve working...

HTM/HTML Size Change after Word Document Save As using Different Computers

My data source in Excel has 3 different cells, all of which contain mixed data (i.e. if, date, concatenate functions in combination with text).  The setting for all 3 fields are exactly the same, and the cells display the information correctly within Excel.  However, when I merge the info to Word, the info contained in the first cell merges over correctly, but the 2nd and 3rd cells display "12:00:00 A.M" even though they are not blank cells.  How can I fix this?  Again, all 3 cells have mixed data (if, date, concatenate functions in combination with text).  TIA.

Full Page Graphic and Uncooperative Text Wrapping

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 09:40 AM PST

Hi All,

I'm putting together a document that has full page graphic sections. I'm trying to set it up so it'll be like this:

Page 1
This page has text for the whole page, and when it gets to the end it breaks-

Page 2
[All one big graphic e.g. just a big rectangle, and there is no text on the page at all]

Page 3
-and then the last sentence from page 1 continues here, and text continues normally.

PROBLEM IS, Word 2007 appears to demand that every page has a least one line of text. For example, if I set up a small text box on a page with text wrapping, the text starts above it the box, breaks, and continues after; if you make the box bigger, more and more text will leave the page, until there is only one line of text on the page, and it will -never- go away, even if it means overlapping your unoverlappable graphic.

Any help solving this issue would be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks.

How to make Drop Cap Point Size Consistent

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 08:42 AM PST

In implementing drop cap in Word 2010, I've found that a "W" is at a point size of 41.5 while a "B" (and all other letters) is at a point size of 33.5.   I specified the drop caps to be 2 lines.  The body font size is 11-points.  The font I'm using is Plantagenet Cherokee.  I have line spacing at Multiple 1.05 lines.

Because the "W" is at a greater point size, it is ignoring the 2 lines specified and is actually 3 lines.

How do I fix?

Thanks

How to copy from WORD (2013) without the formatting

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 05:43 AM PST

Hi,

I need to copy FROM Word (2013) to another application  (Reference Manager).  This application has NO "Paste text only" option and "Ctrl/Shift V" does not work.  The trouble is that when I do a simple "Paste" or "Ctrl/V", the clipboard delivers not only the text but additional characters related to the formating.  

Here is an example:  The WORD document contains the string "123".  If I make a copy and paste it into my application, here is what I get:

"PrFont34Bin0BinSub0Frac0Def1Margin0Margin0Jc1Indent1440Lim0Lim1123".

This happens only if copying from WORD, but not from PowerPoint or Excel.

How do I make "Copy" to only copy the text, not the formatting ?

Windows 7 Microsoft Office Starter 2010 Click to Run

Posted: 21 Feb 2015 05:36 AM PST

Can anyone help me with my problem?

I purchased my computer from Dell with Windows pre-installed. I then started experiencing problems with Word and Excel and can't access them because of Click to Run configuration failure. I have looked on several forums and visited Microsoft Support and have tried to uninstall Click-to-Run/Office through the Control Panel. This doesn't work and keeps coming up with error messages saying to try again. I have also tried to uninstall by going through Accessories to Installer. Again it doesn't work. I also tried doing a repair on Click-to-Run which seems to work but it didnt have any effect on the problem at hand.

I have tried all of the FixIt options I have come across and tried to reinstall using the Product Key which doesn't work (I have checked and re-checked it a dozen times).

I have the original Operating System disk that came with the computer and I did do a full back up and then re-installed but this hasn't helped.

My last attempt was to try to again uninstall Click-to-Run and then try to switch to an MSI Based Office edition. Nothing seems to work.

Basically I can't access Word of Excel at all.

There is a disk drive called Microsoft Office Click-to-Run 2010 (Protected) (Q:) which seems to be empty/won't let me do anything with it but from what I've read on the forums I should just ignore this.

I am a complete techno-phobe and have tried to follow the various step by step instructions posted on the forums but none of the instructions tell me what I should do when the "fixes" don't work. I really do need an "idiot's guide". Is anyone able to help please?

Thanks

How do make word 2013 print go directly to the print properties dialog box

Now in Word 2013 (365), when I click on the PRINTER icon (or go through FILE/PRINT), it brings up a whole new page, and then I also have to click on the Print Properties, which now makes an extra step. Is there a way to bring the printer dialog box up directly into the printer's print properties dialog box?

Restricting PrintDate to specific pages only ...

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!

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

Exclamation point will not print

Posted: 19 Feb 2015 09:24 AM PST

When I use an exclamation point in Word, it does not print on any printer.  I have tried printing from other programs and it will print, but not from Microsoft word.  The exclamation point shows up in the print preview. It also shows up in Acrobat when I save it as a PDF.

This is quite frustrating.

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

Sizing Objects

I can't seem to find the tools for making several drawing objects the same width/height. I've used it for years in Access and assume it is the same in Word, but I can't find it. Does it exist?

Thanks

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...

Thanks,

Joel

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.
