Watermark will not print behind some text/images Posted: 23 Feb 2015 01:15 PM PST Hello everyone, I am using Word 2010. I am making a simple document that has two inserted smart art pictures and then some text, only 1 page. I do not have a header or footer (which everyone seems to have when they have watermark problems). I simply did page layout -> watermark -> custom watermark -> select picture (its our companys logo in a .jpg format) and the washout selection is checked as I want it to appear faded behind everything on the screen. When I look at it in microsoft word it is perfect, shows up faded behind everything on the page and in print preview it shows up. But when I print it, the watermark only shows up behind one of the smart art images, and not behind either the text or other smart art image and I can't figure out why. When I saved it as a PDF, and then open it in adobe reader the watermark no longer shows up (except behind that one smart art image, like how it prints out). I already tried options -> display -> Print Drawing created in Word and Print background colors and images. Any help is appreciated | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
MS Word keeps re-initiating the setup/configuration process Posted: 23 Feb 2015 12:44 PM PST On launching MS Word 2007 on a Windows 7 laptop the setup/configuration process executes every time before Word is available for use. Ran the Diagnostic tool. First time it ran it said there was an issue that needed the original software CD or manufacturers recovery CD to fix. Neither are available. Ran the diagnostic a second time and it said everything was ok. But it still keeps (re-)executing the setup/configuration process. On completion MS Word seems to work fine .... it just takes a long time before it's ready for use. Any ideas for a solution? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Switching from Print Preview Edit Mode to Edit Layout View Posted: 23 Feb 2015 11:49 AM PST I have a 2013 Word document with lots of comments. I wanted to see the comment numbers. I didn't like the way they were displayed in Draft View, so I added Print Preview Edit Mode to my quick access toolbar. This works much better. Except... When I close out of Print Preview Edit Mode and go back to standard Edit View, all of my comments have the dotted lines going to their respective text and the Show Comment toggle button on the Review Ribbon is grayed out. So the only way I can go back to Edit View and continue my work without the distraction of all of those dotted lines running from the comments to my document is to CTRL W and then reopen document. Is there a way to go back to Edit View with my Show Comments button enabled and carry on as I was? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 23 Feb 2015 11:21 AM PST Problem #1: Why is Word inserting the exact same page number on every page? It's a simple 35-page document with no sections, no cover page, no front matter, nothing that would call for anything other than numbers 1 through 35 on each page. I go to the Insert tab, select Page Number, select Top of Page, and I get a "1" at the top of each and every page. Also tried the Insert->Quick Parts -> Field approach and that didn't work either. Still got a "1" on every page. Problem #2: Not only does the same number repeat on every page, but the "Start at…." feature under Format Page Numbers doesn't seem to work either. I can enter 999 and the pages are still each numbered with 1. Not that having each one numbered 999 would be much of an improvement, but at least I'd have just one problem instead of two. If I open a new blank document I don't have this problem. Everything works as it should. This document was sent to me by someone else so I don't know what he did. I thought I could just edit the page numbers or delete them entirely and re-create them but neither works. I still have 35 pages numbered 1. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Saving individual letters from a mail merge into new folders Posted: 23 Feb 2015 11:03 AM PST Hi, I've had a look around a few forums and can't seem to find the answer to my problem, so I'm hoping someone can help! I'm running a daily report which I need put into a mail merge to save in a folder for that day both as a word and as a PDF document (one for upload to a CRM and one to email), both with different file names based upon a merge field. For the word documents I'd like to save these into a folder within the file path "C:\Daily\Email\" & Date("DD MMMM YYYY") & MERGEFIELD "PO" & "\.doc" For the PDFs I'd like to save these into a folder with the file path "C:\Daily\Upload\" & Date ("DD MMMM YYYY") & MERGEFIELD "NO" & ".pdf" So, a record with merge fields PO 101 and NO 202 on 23rd February 2015 would save as: C:\Daily\Email\23 February 2015\101.doc C:\Daily\Upload\23 February 2015\202.doc Each PO and NO will always be unique (the numbers are a lot longer than this!), so there is no risk of duplication. I've got as far as checking and creating the folders using the MkDir commands but I can't seem to get this to then tie in with the mail merge as I want it. Any help would be greatly appreciated! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Printing Word Document Changes the Page Numbering on Each Page Posted: 23 Feb 2015 10:18 AM PST Hi All, Here's my dilemma, when I open a word doc in Word 2010 via a web browser (IE, Chrome), when I print the document instead of the page numbers reading 1of5, 2of5, 3of5 etc, they print on each page like 1of1, 2of2,3of3,4of4 5of5. Now when I view the document in word and print preview everything looks perfectly fine, not until I print, does the page numbering come out wrong. If I save the document to my local drive, and print, again everything is fine. I only run into this issue if I open the word document via the web browser. Any help would be great.

Posted: 23 Feb 2015 10:12 AM PST We just re-branded and are rolling out new MS Word templates which use a custom color theme. I would like all of our Office 365 users to have access to this custom color theme in all Office applications without requiring each person to save the theme file individually. Is there a way to create a custom theme at the administrator level so the theme becomes available in Word, PowerPoint and Excel for all users? Same question for custom templates. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 23 Feb 2015 09:51 AM PST Please reintroduce the useful "Auto Summarize" tool in Word 2010. "Auto Summarize" was used frequently by my colleagues and I in earlier editions- our IT department has moved us to 2010 recently and I now realize how frequently we used this tool. After searching for the auto summary tool within these latest editions and then online, it is clear that many users miss the tool. Knowing that it doesn't currently exist will delay my adoption at home. Thanks. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Word 2013 "can't open because dialog box is already open" error Posted: 23 Feb 2015 09:04 AM PST I was getting the above error in Word 2013 (I have Office 365 Business Premium) whenever I: 1. opened a Word file directly from an email; and 2. right-clicked a file on my hard drive and selected "print". I did not get that error when I just double-clicked to open a file on my hard drive. I went in to Trusted Settings and changed it so that Word documents from emails open directly (not into protected view). Interestingly this fixed the error I get when opening directly from an email, though I still get the error when right-clicking and selecting "print". Can anyone help answer: 1. How do I stop getting the error when I right-click and select "print"? 2. How do I get word documents opened from an email to go straight into editing mode? It now opens not into trusted view but I still have to click "View>Edit Document" to be able to edit it, which is annoying. Thanks in advance! Merlin | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The dictionery is dead, LONG LIVE THE KING Posted: 23 Feb 2015 08:17 AM PST In Word 2013 the built in dictionary is now gone and replaced with a web based version. From a personal point of view we can use our personal Microsoft accounts to access this. But, most corporate companies are blocked from logging on to retrieve the dictionery with there company email address.

Can a table be displayed in Word as a result from an if-then-else statement? Posted: 23 Feb 2015 07:46 AM PST I'm trying to set up a number of word documents whereby I would like one of two tables to be displayed, depending on a certain condition being met. I have tried using an if-then-else statement, and whilst I can get the condition to display various text, when I try using a table as the output, the structure of the table seems to get lost. Is there a way to achieve this? So for example: If X = 1 Then
Else

Office 365 Word Form painfully slow tabbing between fields Posted: 23 Feb 2015 06:21 AM PST Hello - I have a form that was created in Office 2010 that contains fields which I tab through to complete. I never had an issue with performance until I upgraded 2 computers and started using Office 365. Now, tabbing through the fields takes a long time (on both computers) - quite a few seconds to get to each field. I use this form everyday so it cannot run this slowly. I've already followed some of the tips found on this site including disabling hardware graphics acceleration and starting in safe mode (which doesn't work with the fields). I'm thinking it has to do with the size of the file (1.2 MB, 85pg) since I can delete half of it and it tabs a bit more quickly. However, why would this not be an issue in Office 2010?? I really need a solution to the problem. I have also converted the file from compatibility mode and the file is saved locally which hasn't helped either. I can recreate the file in 365 if it's a problem with the Developer tools in 2010 vs. 365, but don't want to do that only to find it's still slow. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, D Watenpool | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Page break always inserted at beginning of section Posted: 23 Feb 2015 02:22 AM PST When entering a manual page break (Control Enter) Word enters the break at the top of the section no matter where in the section you have your cursor. I have tried inserting a "next page break" but it does exactly the same thing. I have tried selecting the "Page Break Before" tab in the Paragraph window but it does not do anything. What could be the problem? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Word 2013 very slow editing (Windows 8.1) even with small documents Posted: 23 Feb 2015 01:47 AM PST Recently, Word 2013 has begun to respond extremely slow to my typing, even with very small documents. I work on a Windows 8.1 64-bits system that performs well otherwise. The problem is always there, but the degree varies over time. Sometimes the effects of typing are lagging up to 15 seconds or so, at other times about 2 seconds. I work on documents for publishers, which have hardly any formatting, and only a few dozens of pages. What I've tried so far: disabled hardware acceleration and animation, repaired Office, rebooted PC, all to no avail. Also, running Word in safemode has no positive effect whatsoever. After the repair, my macros are gone, so these cannot be a problem. Ive got no add-ins installed and do not work in the cloud. PS: By the way, Word has worked fine for a year or so, so I guess there is no problem with video card drivers and the like. How can I troubleshoot this behavior besides the steps I've taken already? Or can I remedy it without the need to troubleshoot? Cheers, Django EDIT: I've only just remembered that I've recently changed the way I work: As a translator, I write up my translation in the source document. I make the text I've dealt with invisible (with Font > Hidden Text). I now see that when I click 'show symbols' (or whatever this is called in the English version -- I don't know), the responsiveness is as it once was! So, I've at least a workaround, though I would like to see this behavior changed. It seems as though MS Word, needs time to calculate how to paint/display the hidden text. Or is that far-fetched? Note: Each document I'm currently working on contains exactly one image, which is also marked as hidden. I must still run some tests to find out the effect of keeping or removing that image. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Deafult saving locations of Office 2013 reverted back to deafult (Users/xx/Documents) Posted: 23 Feb 2015 12:51 AM PST I am using Office 2013 on W 8.1, and have changed all my default saving locations in Word, Powerpoint and Excel in the Options -> Save dialog box. "Save to computer by default" and "Don't show Backstage" are checked. Everything worked fine until a few weeks ago, when suddenly all programs began saving to the default folder (Users/xx/Documents). Save settings still show that the programs should save to the specified folder on drive D:\xx I checked the Advanced -> General -> File Locations tab in Word and it also shows the D:\xx location correctly. Any idea what happened and how to fix it? Thanks | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Immense issues with Microsoft Home and Student 2010 and Microsoft Professional Plus 2010 Posted: 22 Feb 2015 09:46 PM PST I have had issues with my copy of Microsoft Home and Student 2010 since I received it in April of 2010. I was given a Compaq Presario CQ62 laptop with Microsoft Home and Student 2010 already installed onto it as a gift from my parents after graduating middle school. Since day one, it has not worked correctly. I already contacted Microsoft about my issues in which it was discovered that a) the product key which came with the copy of Microsoft Home and Student 2010 was corrupted and thus b) would not work on my computer. After a five hour phone conversation in which I allowed the Microsoft employee to take control of my computer remotely the problem was fixed by him installing Microsoft Professional Plus 2010 on my computer. I was told to get rid of the product key since it would not work on other computers due to the fact that it was corrupted. The copy of Microsoft Professional Plus 2010 worked without any bugs except that I noticed my computer was extremely slow for being (at the time) brand new. A professional took a look at it and determined that the copy of Microsoft which had been installed on my computer had corrupted my motherboard. $500+ later and everything worked perfectly and has been working; up until yesterday. Yesterday I opened up Microsoft Word to type a paper for a college class and an error message came up that said, "Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 is not activated. You have 26 days left to activate. Error code: 0xC004F074." Please do tell me why this happened five years after I thought these issues had been fixed. This is extremely frustrating as I rely on this computer to do all my college work. I DO NOT have a product key or proof of purchase because this computer was given to me as a gift and the product key I was given was corrupted. I NO LONGER own the product key since I was told to get rid of it by a Microsoft employee who said it was a corrupted key. To my knowledge, this copy of Microsoft Professional Plus 2010 had been activated by the employee on my computer. A message like this has never come up before when using my computer. I have already put large amounts of money into fixing the corruptions on my computer caused by the faulty copy of Microsoft Home and Student 2010 and would like to have this problem resolved with limited damage to my already tight budget. Please let me know what I need to do in this case. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Display Proofing Tool Grammar messages/explanation in English Posted: 22 Feb 2015 06:29 PM PST Office 2013 Home/Office installed on Windows 7, English-US localized version. I installed the German Language Proofing tools. Grammar explanations are displayed in German. I would like to display them in English. I tried Spanish and its grammar messages are displayed in Spanish. So this looks like a general restriction. Looked for a "message file" that I could translate from German to English, but I have not been able to find it. - Is there a setting (registry?) setting that would force German grammar messages to be displayed in English? - What file contains the grammar messages? So, why am I looking for this capability? Previously I have used Duden Korrektor (3rd party German language tool) with Office 2003. It displayed the German grammar messages in English. Unfortunately, Duden has decided to not sell their product anymore. Second, German is not my 1st language (English is). I would be able to understand and learn better if the messages were displayed in English. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
