Different First Page Heading in Word 2007

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 03:27 PM PST

I am trying to write a 4 page letter for a non-profit organization.  I want its logo to be on the first page and not on any other pages.  According to the searches I have done, I should double click on the first page and select different first page.  When I do that, the logo disappears from the first page and remains on the other 3 pages, exactly opposite of what  I am trying to accomplish.

I would appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction.

Thank you.

Compare documents: Comparison summary will not print properly

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 03:25 PM PST

Word 2010: When I compare two documents (Review > Compare > Compare (filenames)...), the screen shows all correctly. I can change the markup to inline from balloons (my preference), and all shows OK. But when I try to print it, it will not print correctly, showing all balloons off the edge of the page, although I had selected inline.

Will not allow styles to show in a new document

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 03:03 PM PST

Hating Microsoft once again.

I am creating new styles in a template. Why can't I apply the style to any DOCUMENT I have that is not based on a template. I have created the style in a DOCUMENT, and it STILL WILL NOT APPLY IT TO ANY OTHER DOC. In other words, it is not even a selection.

Why have I spent all this time when I can only use it for the doc I have done it in.  And yes, I have clicked the Apply to Other Documents box in all cases.

This is seriously screwed up.

How to add Keywords to a word picture.

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 02:21 PM PST

How do I add Keywords to a word picture.  I Opened MS Picture Manager, and it shows me the properties, but I want to add Keywords.   I also went to File Explorer and right click to see properties, but don't see where to add keywords.  The Accessibility checker didn't help, and the Format Picture dialog box lets you add "Alt Text" but still not seeing Picture Keyword properties that you see when you open the Clip Art Pane.

Thanks in advance.

Office 2010

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 01:08 PM PST

My Word 2010 keeps freezing up on me when I am in the middle of typing, and I am getting beyond sick of it.  I went to the Microsoft site and downloaded the Fixit thing and it ran, asked if what it did worked, in which I started Word again and it still froze.  I said no to it working and Fixit ran and ran and ran until I just hit cancel (it ran for 30 minutes) and continued on down the list of things to do.  It told me to find HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Data in the Regedit.  I found everything on the address except for the data, so I can find everything up to Office\14.0\Word, but there is no Data file for me to find.  So that is where I am stuck.  I am supposed to find the data file, save it to my desktop and delete it from the registry to see if that is what's causing Word to mess up, but since I can't even find the file, I can't check it.

Mail merge suddenly can't find the fields in the table

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 11:44 AM PST

I am running an old computer with Windows XP, Word & Excel are the same, either 2003 or 2007. I've used the mail merge function with the Avery label system for about 2 years. Suddenly, without warning it doesn't work anymore. I match up the data fields on the label template where I want it and choose the view labels, like I always did.  Word opens in another screen and the mail merge says it can't find the data field. but it won't let me select any of the options to ignore or choose another field. can anyone help me? The word screen that it opens is blank, I don't know if that's normal as I never had a reason to look at, I just followed the prompts and it worked .... PLEASE HELP!

Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

Word Opens but doesn't load Files saved on Network Drives

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 09:44 AM PST

Having problems with Word; if double clicking a file saved on a network drive on the local network it will not open the file. Word will launch, flash a document window and logo again and then open on the quickstart/template screen one would get if just opening Word.  Files can be accessed if they are moved to the desktop. Files will open on double click from desktop.  Moving all files to local systems will not work for our company needs.

Can't open docx attachments in email

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 08:33 AM PST

I purchased and downloaded Office 2013 a couple of weeks ago.  The programs seem to work correctly, except Word docx files attached to email won't open from email. I get the message "Download cannot be saved because an unknown error occurred." I have to save them to the desktop or somewhere else, open Word, then open the document.  Excel files (xlsx) DO open correctly in Excel, and older doc files also open correctly.  I've checked the "Trust Center settings" and all are identical to the Excel settings.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled Office twice.  I've tried the live chat with Microsoft "experts" which was a monumental waste of time.  I'm using Windows 8.1 and use Thunderbird as my email client.  Any help would be appreciated, as it's a pain to have to take multiple steps to open an attachment that should work with one click.  Thanks!

Add Two-word words to MS dictionary?

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 08:20 AM PST

Is it possible to update the custom dictionary with two-word words?  For instance, I'd like to add "Bandar Abbas" (the name of a city in Iran) to the custom dictionary, but I don't want "Bandar" to be a separate word or "Abbas" since that could lead to problems with words like "Banter" and "Abbey" or something.

Also, what about something more difficult like "Dar es Salaam".  I'd hate to have "Dar" as a word on its own, or "es".  That would create a lot of problems!

Work Lost On Unsaved Microsoft Document - How Can I Recover It MS2007

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 07:59 AM PST

My Windows:  7

My Office: MS Word 2007

I spent 5 hours working on a document 3 days ago (Friday). I went to open it today and the work I completed did not save. Is there a way of getting the work back? The document was something I have been working on for some time. I opened the saved file, completed the work, closed the file (which I assume I couldn't have saved) then renamed the file.

I have tried to go to the folder which the autorecover  stuff saves into and there are no .asd files in it

I have searched for all .asd files on the whole PC and none exist.

The versions I can go back to aren't any good as they don't hold the material I need .

I have been using Word 2007 so I don't have the autosave option to look through.

I guess what im looking for is to go back in time to a point I was working on the file with the text I had completed on the document before I had closed it. Say around 16:30 last  Friday

Can  any one help at all?

Thanks very much

Rachel.

Visio 2010 drawings embedded in Word 2010 Table not printing

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 07:56 AM PST

I'm having an issue with printing a Word 2010 (.docx) document with embedded Visio 2010 Drawings in a table within the document.

The document is saved as a .docx and when previewed, the Visio drawings show up.   When printed, they don't show up.

If I save the document as a 97-2003 (.doc) version, the pages print correctly and the Visio diagram is printed correctly, within the table cell in which it was placed.

I've been checking several articles on the web, but cannot find anything very recent on this issue and the articles that do exist have not provided a solution.

Understandably, my clients want to maintain the documents in the newer version of Word, rather than having to save as an older version, just to be able to print the documents when they've been updated by operational staff.

I've tried turning on / off several print options within Word, to no avail.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you,

What to do when third-party add-in doesn't work?

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 07:26 AM PST

In an effort to find a way to import/export Word keyboard shortcuts, I landed a third-party app called "Shortcut Organizer" add-in.

I've placed the .DOT file in the Word Startup folder. The Word Startup folder has been designated a trusted location in Options-Trust Center too.

When I click on the relevant button (Shortcut Organizer) under the Add-in ribbon, however, nothing! When I try to run the individual macro (OrganizeKeyboardShortcuts.MAIN) from the Developer-Macro, also nothing!

This is very strange, because all the other macros from another third-party add-in are operating properly.

Any clue?

Cannot access Word 2013 templates...server issues?

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 06:57 AM PST

When searching for online templates an error message comes up saying:
"Your Internet request timed out. The service might be temporarily busy."

I have restarted my Internet and computer with no luck of this changing.  It has been going on for a couple days too.

I am also not able to sign in.  A message comes up when I click the sign in link that says:
"Sorry, we are having some temporary server issues."
This makes me think maybe it's not my computer but something else going on.  I am not able to check for updates either because of Microsoft server issues.

Can anyone out there help me?

Thank you.

Columns to full page size

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 04:22 AM PST

Dear Sir,

I'm tackling a project in which I did OCR on newspaper clippings. As such the OCR is done and saved as a word document. The problem is that it's saved with the same format as the article, that is in two columns. What I want is the two columns to merge as I was writing regularly with Word, that is the full width of the page. My problem is that If I choose only one column in format, what happens is that the whole width of the page is filled, but the space between the words is increased proportionally.

I hope you understand my situation, if not let me know and I'll give you more information.

Thanks,

Arturo

How can I set Google Mail as the default Share option in Word 2013?

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 04:20 AM PST

Sharing from Word 2013 with Outlook installed is brilliant, however our office uses Google Mail (in the browser) and it'd be great to be able to click share within Word 2013, and choose "as attachment" and for that to load of Google compose window... Is this possible, and if so, how?! 

How do I insert multiple TOCs in Word 2010?

Posted: 02 Mar 2015 02:52 AM PST

Split from this thread.

In Word 2010, don't even think about using any of the built-in TOC building blocks. Instead, in References | Table of Contents | Table of Contents, choose Insert Table of Contents..., which will open the classic Table of Contents dialog, where you can click on Options.

Can you describe how to insert multiple TOCs into a document using this method in Word 2010?

Missing files and files opening in Word 2013

Split from this thread.

Not only did I find files changed when I downloaded Office 2013, I had a briefcase disappear from the desktop.  While searching for it I found dozens of Word 2007 in the recycle bin.  Upon looking where they were previously, they had been converted to 2013 with the name changed to "new document".  Haven't found the briefcase yet.   I also have Word 2007 and when I attempt to open it, Word 2013 opens.

Problem with custom templates in Word 2013

Posted: 01 Mar 2015 06:04 PM PST

OK: I've moved my old custom Word templates over to the "Custom Templates" folder in Word 2013 with no problem, and they appear  and function just fine. However, there appears to be no way to attach the template to a new Word document, as opposed to opening the template itself. With previous versions of Word, I could specify that I wanted to create a new document or a new template...but in Word 2013, using my custom template there's no such option. I want to attach my template to a new blank document, but when I click on the template file it opens the actual template, so I end up typing into the template instead of a new document based on the template. Help!

Office 2013 not responding

Posted: 01 Mar 2015 03:35 PM PST

I have a problem with both Microsoft Office 2013 Outlook, Word not responding. When I first open them they work for a few minutes, however they then jam up and come up with 'not responding'. This is becoming quite annoying as it is taking up my precious work time restarting the programs every 5 minutes. I have looked at other forums, but none of the solutions seem to work. If somebody could help me it would be great. I have a windows 7 computer. It is a new computer, I only got it 2 weeks ago and it was working fine for the first week but it has been playing up for about a week now. 

Office 2013 no longer opens after receiving automatic update from MS.

Posted: 01 Mar 2015 03:34 PM PST

I have the Office Home & Student 2013 version which I downloaded back in 2013 from MS. After a recent automatic update on 02/23/15, I get the following message box when I try to open any of the office programs from either the program icon or a created document/file:

Header says: office2rclient.exe - Bad Image.  Box content reads: " C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\Clientx64\MSVCR100.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support. Error status 0xc0000020. "

I have tried to uninstall the program but neither the Uninstall or Change button executes when the Microsoft Office Home and Student 2013 - en-us program is selected on the uninstall program list. The window color changes briefly but nothing else happens.

As well, I tried to reinstall the original program from Microsoft on-line using the product key and got a message that that particular product key can not be downloaded. ??? a lot of good that does the customer.

Ideas??

Installation Office Small Business 2007 transfer problems

Posted: 19 Oct 2008 11:56 AM PDT

You now state preloaded software, if by that you mean Office SB, then that
means it was an OEM and as such it died with your viao, unless it was a
trial that you purchased a key for.
By Backup file I assume you used the default windows backup, I've never used
this but I understand it is possible to recover any data backup on a new
PC - You'd probably be best posting to a group that supports the old o/s as
to how to do this.
You can also remove the old drive, place it in an external case & connect to
your new PC to access your old data.
Whilst backing up is allway wise its best to backup to a media, or in such
away, that the backup can be accessed by another PC - I prefer third part
backup software, backed up to an external drive
Also a backup of programs is of no help, in recovering programs.

When Winword is open on the Desktop then grab the bottom right corner and
stretch it out as big as you want it. Then when you open it next time it
should remember that size and open up to what you stretched it to.

The other way is to right click on Winword in your Start menu and select
Properties then go to the Run window and click on the small dropdown arrow
and set it to Maximized

Access to Office Customization Tool

Hello Bob

Thank you for that advice. Yes I have the retail version.

The bottom line is that I want to use another Microsoft product, i.e.
Hotmail, for all my email needs, and fromwhatever web page prompt or web
browser I may be using at any particular time, yet because of the action of
installing Office 2007, that action has set the system default to Outlook.
Because of the limitations of some other software I need to be able to get in
and SAFELY change that system default!!

I found a knowledge base article with relevance to this issue - brief
extract follows -

KB 944290

1st para under Method 2: Post-deployment

Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using
Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that
you reinstall the operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these
problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.

I do not want to take risks, but how do I get round this problem please?

Best regards

Philip

Regarding Exchange Server mailbox

Posted: 04 Nov 2008 09:50 AM PST

Resource mailboxes don't have an associated user account either.

You won't be able to use a resource mailbox with OE at all.

Migrating 2003 Public Folder system to 2007 CCR

Posted: 02 Nov 2008 11:15 AM PST

Of course, that comes back to the issue of minimizing tion with
public folders on a CCR cluster....

In a related note, what exactly is the reason everyone is saying no public
folders on a CCR cluster? I can see the issues if you have the tion
going on, and during the migration (like we're at), but once you get down to
a single PF database, it seems like taking advantage of the CCR and not
having to mess with PF tion would be a much cleaner approach. The
various articles I've seen on Technet (and elsewhere) all seem to indicate
that PF on CCR is a perfectly fine configuration, as long as you're not
doing tion.

Currently, we've too short on usable hardware to do a non-CCR public folder
system. However, if there's a technical reason that's going to come up to
bite us later if we go with CCR for the PF database, I can at least start
trying to find a hardware solution. I'm just not seeing any negatives to a
PF/CCR solution in any of the official doentation, as long as the
tion isn't being done.

Performance Issue

Posted: 30 Oct 2008 04:27 PM PDT

There a stong correlation between RPC latency and disk latency. You've
mentioned some user habits, some anecdotes, processor utilization number,
and a vauge reference to RPC latency. I'd start by gathering some hard
objective evidence to define the problem.

1. Look at disk. Specifically look at your IO load and disk latency for
log and database drives. In perfmon these are the physical disk counters
sec/read, sec/write. reads/sec, and writes/sec. How much load are you
placing on your storage subsytem? Are you seeing average latency above 20ms
and/or spikes in latency lasting more than a few seconds above 50ms? How
many free system page table entries do you have?

2. Look at Exchange memory usage. What is the working set size of the
store.exe process? how does exchange virual meory look? How big is your
page file? What does your paging activity look like?

3. On the network side, what does your utilization look like? Can you
define the RPC latency you are seeing?

4. Have you run the Exbpa tool? Did you follow any of the recommendations
it gave? Did it give any recommendations?

5. Examine your system and application logs. Are there any warnings or
errors? If so what are they?

6. How is your server configured? Memory? Contents of boot.ini?
Processors, how many and what type? How many spindles do you have for disk
and how are those spindles configured? RAID types? How is exchange
configured? Which components reside where? What components are you using?
hoiw busy are they? When are online maintenance and backups scheduled? Are
they both completing successfully?

Your quest for the answers to these questions will go a long way toward
defining the problem in an objective way and ultimately the resolution of
your issue. Be as complete as you can and let us know what you turn up...

Because the high water mark is 95% and the low water mark is 5%. During a

water mark or a total of 90% of your log buffers. 9000*.9 = 8100.

Need Help With Server-Side Rule

Posted: 27 Oct 2008 03:40 PM PDT

Ed,

Thanks for the response. I got it working. However, I thought that I would
post a few more details for the benefit of others who may have a similar
question.

The rule that I created is pretty simple. It just looks for the word
"Critical" in the Subject line and moves any messages matching the criteria
to the Critical folder within the same mailbox.

I was having a problem getting the rule to fire server-side until it
occurred to me that I used a different account to create the rule. At the
time I created the rule I was logged on to Active Directory with my personal
user account. I had the other Inbox--named SSOCNotifications--open in
Outlook, and I selected that Inbox and then created the rule. During the
creation of the rule I saw a line in the rule that read, "and on this
machine only." After creating the rule I edited it to remove that line.
The rule ends up as follows:

Apply this rule after the message arrives
with Critical in the subject
move it to the Critical folder
and stop processing more rules

That should work, but it wasn't, until I realized that I need to login to
the SSOCNotifications account and create the rule while logged in under that
account. Once I did that, it worked perfectly.

0xC007003A When trying to install Exchange

Appears to be a permission issue. You must be a member of the Enterprise
Admins group in the Root domain to install the very first Exchange 2003
server. Also, make sure the account you are using is also the same account
you ran /ForestPrep with.

You can use ADSIEdit to view the permissions of the Exchange ORG if you are
uncertain of the account used to run /ForestPrep.

Word 2013 Templates Changed Language

Posted: 01 Mar 2015 02:23 PM PST

I was writing a few papers today for school and decided to take a break. I shut my laptop for probably 40 minutes and came back. Clicked on Word 2013, which brought up the template options for me to choose from.

Where they were all once in English, now they are all in Chinese! I don't know what I did. I checked all of the inputs and language settings on my laptop and in the Windows program itself. I really don't know where to go from here. Can someone please help me?

Thanks,

Vertical Text Alignment of Continuous Section in Word 2013.

Posted: 01 Mar 2015 10:21 AM PST

I am trying to understand the Vertical Text Alignment in Word 2013.  If anyone has any advice, it would be much appreciated.  So far my primary source is this article, although it is outdated.

I would like to create two continuous sections with different vertical text alignment on one page.

In the first section, I would like the text vertically-aligned to the top of the page.

In the second continuous section, I would like the text vertically-aligned to the bottom of the page.

I am applying settings to "This Section" for each of the two, rather than the "Whole Document."

The second continuous section says it is aligned to the bottom of the page in the settings, but really the vertical text alignment of both sections is displayed in sync to whatever I set the first continuous section to, rather than what they are independently set to.

In the past, I would have used tables, but was hoping to figure out this particular feature.

Creating a form field to be filled out by a user and populate through out the document

Posted: 01 Mar 2015 10:08 AM PST

I know this is simple but I cannot figure it out.

Working in

|Office 2013
 |Microsoft Office Word
 |Office for Windows 8.1
 

Please don't reference Greg Massey, I can't understand anything there and his tutorials seem completely out of whack with Word 2013.

I am building a contract where field are repeated several times, (FirstName, LastName, Address, etc.)

I want to create a field in the contract that populated throughout the document with these variable from the first field I population:

I want to enter the information each time from a template directly on the template.  When a user would get to the template the first page might have something like this.  There they would fill in the variables in italics

This contract is for FirstName LastName at ThisAddress, ThisCity, ThisZipCode

Static content continues here.  Static content continues here.  Static content continues here.  Static content continues here.  Static content continues here.  Static content continues here.  Static content continues here. 

Static content continues here.  Static content continues here.  Static content continues here.  Static content continues here.  Static content continues here.  Static content continues here. 

Then one of the variable above is needed again.  If it was entered above, it would automatically populate the fields filled in above.

FirstName LastName promises to pay $1 for services.

All Service are performed in ZipCode

I know you can do this with bookmarks, but when I did that, and then wanted to CHANGE the variable to make a contract with another person, I had to recreate the bookmark and all referenced fields on the whole thing from an original bookmark again.  I want to make this once, and the use just enters the basic information one time and it autopopulates the rest of the doc.

Microsof Office 365 unlicensed product: 0x8004FC12

Posted: 01 Mar 2015 09:47 AM PST

Microsoft community,

13 September 2014 I purchased Microsoft Office 365 University and the license should expire 13 September 2018.

However very suddenly while I was using microsoft word, a window popped up. It was the license activation wizard of

Microsoft Office. That window should not pop up in the first place, because my product license is far from being expired.

But when I tried to follow the instructions of the wizard anyway, it gave me the following error: 0x8004FC12

So here I am supposed to be writing an essay, trying to make the deadline. But not without microsoft word.

I would really appreciate your help, since the problem is very obstructive and problematic.

Lost formatting When opening MS Word document

Posted: 01 Mar 2015 09:06 AM PST

Dear Readers and Gurus,

I opened up a word document and formatted it to my specific parameters, typed in text, set page breaks, set up a titles and headings and even a table of contents and a reference page for a non-fiction book I want to complete. I saved the document the regular way - by File-save as-. When I opened up the same document, all of the information is there still, all of the formatting in the settings is still set, but everything is completely out of place. Instead of a 9x6 page view, it has a full page view and is applied to the entire document. Is there a setting that changes between saving the document, closing the document and reopening the document that is causing these  - what appears to me as "zoom" features to occur? I would really like to get back to the 9x6 page view so that my words and setting stay the same.

How to make lines fill with text?

Posted: 01 Mar 2015 09:04 AM PST

I have a text document whose contents I want to copy into Word. But upon pasting, all the lines break off and continue on the next line, before using up their line's maximum available space. E.g.:

"First word second

word

third word fourth word fifth

word sixth word

seventh

word"

Whereas I'd like them to run normally, to the full capacity of the line:

"First word second word third word fourth word fifth word sixth word seventh word"

How can I obtain that result, aside from tedious pressing of Backspace at each line?

Thanks.

How can I get the curser to go to the left margin when I hit a return?

Posted: 01 Mar 2015 07:48 AM PST

I am so frustrated, if I could find the moron who added the auto-indent into Word, I swear I would be inclined to punch him in the face for wasting so much of my time.

Here is the problem.  I draft documents with numbered paragraphs.  I tab once, type the number, then tab again, and start typing the paragraph.  When the text wraps down to the next line, it will not start at the left margin.  Instead, it automatically aligns with the typed number.  I have wasted ALOT of time trying to stop this automatic feature, to the point that I curse Microsoft on a regular basis.

Can anyone tell me how to turn off this moronic feature?  I have searched through the auto formating **** options, turned off all that I could find, but to no avail.  What as **** program Word has become.

Please help.

Thank You.

I end up using copy & paste for all my text from below that &*^% feature to the space above it
trying to push it to the last page where I have to remember to not print that page.

This has been happening as far back as I can remember, maybe even to Win 95.

Template, Formatting & Nested Tables

Posted: 28 Feb 2015 05:35 PM PST

I am trying to setup a template for users that includes a table. This document will be used as a hand filled out form. There will be 2 types of users those that use the template and those that use the printed out form. This is all within Word 2013. The table consists of 1 column and two rows. The first row is the header column (Titles). The second row contains a question then under that a spacing and then a bullet-ed list (done as a box symbol) for possible answers (which can be ticked off by the end user when printed). After the bullet-ed list I have placed a nested table of 2 rows and 12 columns (to write in numbers on the printed out form).

What I am trying to do is - for the initial users who are creating the questions and answers (template users) be able to type in the question and have a pre-formatted question style applied to it, then have them write a question in the bullet-ed list (have an answer style applied to it) hit enter and keep going for the amount of answers they wish to include. While they are doing this I would like the nested table to keep moving down as the answers are added and the table row expand to accommodate the nested table moving down as well.

At the moment as I add to the bullet-ed list it goes underneath the nested table and disappears past the table row border.

I am only new to word so forgive me if this is a simple question, I have only been playing around in word for a week, but have done a lot of reading and experimenting and can't seem to find an answer to how to solve this.

*Side question - Is it possible to lock a template down to just the style set (font colour etc.) that is used in this template so that the users cannot break it and it doesn't affect my normal documents - so remove all other formatting styles from the template, but still have them available for all of my documents. I am afraid to remove them in case it removes them completely from my own set.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Hi,

I want to add punctuation to a Filename Field which sometimes contains letters and numbers.

Applying it to only numbers is simple with a switch

ie with filename: 021513

a Fieldcode switch of: FILENAME  \# 00/00/00

will display 02/15/13

However the same Field switch applied to 021513A drops the A and displays only 02/15/13

I would like it to display 02/15/13A

As the suffix could be A, B, C etc is there some kind of wildcard which could be used?

Any ideas?
