Automatically record actual overtime

Posted: 06 Mar 2006 09:53 AM PST

Project can do it, but only in custom fields. Let's say you do 4 hours on
one task in a day and 6 on another. Which task should be charged the
overtime, one or both or none? There are way too many variables and other
scenarios where Project running on a computer with an IQ of zero could never
get the Overtime correct.

You could have a blanket VBA macro that went through every day for a
nominated resource and set to overtime all hours >8. That would of course
reduce durations and then you get another round of difficulties!!

Progress Summary of Milestone tasks

Posted: 06 Mar 2006 08:39 AM PST

Continuing with the previous posting by Jon... Since milestones represent a
culmination of a series of activities, we never place all the milestones
together in a summary task.

Instead, we use other tasks (Significant Accomplishments, Accomplishment
Criteria, etc.) which culminate in a Program Event Milestone. As the
previous post implies, loading work into these other actvities and taking
credit for them incrementally will provide you a roll-up into a summary.

I am guessing that you may have all your program milestones loaded into one
summary task and therefore allowing a brief report to management. Consider
other methods of reporting (you can always filter on Miletones) which allow
actually measurable work to drive the %complete on the summary level task.

Although I haven't directly answered your question, perhaps I've given you
an alternative way to present the data that will give you what you seek.

Garold,
In the scheduling world a flowchart is referred to as a network diagram
and yes, Project can create graphical representations other than a Gantt
chart. Take a look at the views: Descriptive Network Diagram, Network
Diagram and Relationship Diagram. Each offers a slightly different "cut"
of the data and they can be customized, although Project does not have
as much flexibility with its graphics as some other applications (e.g.
Visio) or add-ons to Project (e.g. Milestones).

Hope this helps.

Defining a Critical Path

Posted: 06 Mar 2006 03:09 AM PST

Adding to Mike's comment - there is a specific technical definition of the
term "critical path" in the project management world and MS Project
calculates it based on that definition. The critical path is the sequence
of tasks that determines the overall project duration. You can trace many
other pathways through the project, basing them on any criteria that you
might choose, but only the sequence of tasks with slack times of zero or
less can legitimately be called the critical path. You can choose to call
oranges "mini-basketballs" if you want to but no one else will understand
what you're talking about if you do. <grin>

difference in shape at all. They'd both aculate the same costs. I
can't imagine where this would be of much use. Does the OP have an

Spunky --

In the future, please post your Project Server questions in the
microsoft.pubic.project.server newsgroup, as this newsgroup is devoted to
the Microsoft Project desktop application only. To answer your question, no
one will be able to give you an absolute answer why a project gets "stuck"
in checked out state. We recommend that you click File - Close instead of
clicking the Close button (X button) in the upper right corner of the
window, as this seems to reduce the number of times that projects get stuck.
Also, if you are using Project Server 2003, please stop asking your Project
Server administrator to check in the stuck project for you. Do it yourself
on the Project Center page, where you will find the "Check in my projects"
link near the bottom of the sidepane. Hope this helps.

Cole,
You don't necessarily have a lemon but even if you do, let's just shown

The fact that the creator of the file hid some columns is just what I
suspected. I thought I explained how to see for sure what fields are in
a view, (although not necessarily displayed), but I guess not so let me
try again.

1. Activate the view you are using for the compare (e.g. Gantt Chart
view).
2. Go to View/Table/More Tables
3. In the More Tables window, you will see the active view table
highlighted. Hit "Edit"
4. In the Table Definition window that pops up review all the fields
that are shown. If a field was hidden in the view by pulling over the
vertical column separator the column width will show a "0", however that
field is still "active" and will be tested when the compare utility runs.
5. Simply "Delete Row" of any fields you do NOT want as part of the view
6. Finally, hit "OK", then "Apply" and run the compare again.

Hope this helps.

Julie, thanks for getting back with me again. I've been able to open the

Others at work have been able to open the files I have not been able to open.

I've done the "detect and repair" action. I've uninstalled Project and
reinstalled it. So far, no joy. Still get the blank while screen, though
the header shows the file is open and Project asks me if I want to save
changes, so it appears to be opening the file, it just won't show any of the

I don't know of any new software that has been installed since I last opened
a Project file successfully. I keep the system updated with Windows and
Office updates; those are all that I know that have gone on to the system
recently.

Thanks!

Upon opening the document, it started asking for the key. They have used this for quite a while and had bought it from Best Buy.  I was thinking though

it would be doubtful that it would be in the registry, and if searched maybe I could find it? The other thing I was thinking of was to restore it to an earlier

date though I am not sure that would help?

They are elderly and don't remember having a disc with it, and they took it to Best Buy which couldn't help them out

Any suggestions?

Page numbering when starting a new section break

Posted: 21 Mar 2015 01:22 PM PDT

Hi everyone:

I am working on a book where I have a one-page Introduction that starts at roman numeral, iii, and then the Foreword which I want to start at roman numeral iv. 

There is a blank page between these two sections, which I need in there, and it appears that I've sectioned this area properly. Section 1 (odd) is a blank page, Section 2 is the Introduction page (even), and Section 3 (odd) is the Foreword page. The roman numeral have to be this way; otherwise, the Index page numbers in the back of the book will be off.

Here's the problem. When I try and change to roman numeral iv on the Foreword page using "Format Page number, then "Start at", it puts in the right roman numeral, turns the roman numeral to iv on the Introduction page, and it adds another page, which throws my whole document off. Now it shows the Introduction as odd, then the Foreword as odd. My "link to previous" if off.

Why is it doing this, and there still seems to be a link, even though I've shut the link button off.

Any advice?

Thanks much!

Mel

How to detect what version of Word is running using VBA

Posted: 21 Mar 2015 07:00 AM PDT

Dear all

I am experiencing persistent crashes when I use the Selection.Range.Relocate wdRelocateDown (or wdRelocateUp) method in Word 2013.  I have read on another forum that this is an acknowledged problem and that whilst the wdRelocateDown (and Up) methods work beautifully in Word 2010 and 2003, the Application.Run "OutlineMoveDown" (or Up) method is needed in the 2013 version of Word.

Now, the template that holds my macros could be opened in either Word 2013, 2010 or 2003.  Therefore I need the code snippet that will tell me what version of Word is opening the template.  Knowing the version I can then construct the macros to run the appropriate method as described above.  I'm sure the method of detecting what version of Word is running using VBA is awfully simple but I haven't been able to track it down, hence my appeal to the wisdom of the Community.  Thanks in anticipation of your assistance again.

Kindest regards

How to Bold specific parts of text document automatically.

Hello,

I have a document that has time codes spread throughout the text. The only thing common between them is the format that is [hh:mm:ss]. The hh, mm and ss values are variable.

I need all these time codes to be bold formatted.

Replace function does a great job in formatting the same text throughout the sheet, but I can't find any function that allows me to do that for formats or masks. Like if I could somehow program it to embolden everywhere [ ] occurs and everything in between.

Was hoping if someone could help me out with it.

Office 2013 caption for figures has same numbering

I am writing my thesis in microsoft word 2013. I have assigned "Heading 4" to the chapter number, "Heading 2" to the Section and "Heading 3" to the subsection.

I have three figures under the three separate subsections in a chapter. I have inserted a caption for each figure. I have enabled the "Include chapter number" tick box and pointed the chapter number to "Heading 4". All the figure captions are labelled "figure 1.1" instead of having the labels "figure 1.1", "figure 1.2" and "figure 1.3." What could be the possible reason for this?

I have noticed that if all the figures are under the same subsection and then I insert the captions I get the labels "figure 1.1", "figure 1.2" and "figure 1.3.". But when they are in different subsections, they have the same label i.e. "figure 1.1".

Thanks for your answer.

Your solution works correctly only if the case ("statuscode") updates a
single time.

In order to make this task ("Send notification by e-mail") several times
it´s possible to use the event to "Check Conditions"

For example, send e-mail notification when it changes the "statuscode" of
the case or when an activity (task, fax, email, call) is created.

the organization name you specify in the CRM V3.0 install is different than
your existing CRM v1.2 installation. Then the database names will not be the
same. V3.0 organization name is not tied to the license key so this value
can now be whatever you want.

The only thing that would not work would be to have the CRM v1.2 and v3.0
Exchange Router on the same Exchange Server. You would need to have 2
separate Exchange Servers in order to resolve any conflicts.

Hello Mike,

Thanks for this answer but it doesn't cover my request, what if in your

One other quick question, I have set the services to auto start however when
the pc is re-started the services are not startin for msde, and they are set

However, I did a diff on the present web.config and the one in the last
backup and found out that someone had added an authorization element setting
<deny users="?">. Not sure why this was done, but once I removed it, things
worked fine.

I don't know why this modification would cause this behaviour, especially
from just my machine, as we're not allowing anonymous access anyhow.

Thanks, Dan. This got me pointed in the right direction. Turns out there's

that was preventing the connection. Adding the path allowed the connection.

Get rid of styles

Posted: 20 Mar 2015 03:04 PM PDT

Split from this thread.

Thanks everyone for all the great information but I tried several macros offered here in WORD 2010 and not one of them did anything at all.  I think it was 4 macros that I tried in total.

I also copied and used the macro Sub NukeStyleNotInDocument() but I got an error message:

"Compile error:  Syntax error.  OK Help"

Also in Word 2010 I can only see the Char or Corrupt Styles in the Find What, Find Styles window and nowhere else can I see them and I mean nowhere else?  In Word 2003 Char styles or Corrupt Styles used to appear in a different place and so it is like the corrupt styles are still there but now hidden under the Find What, Find Styles window but I do not know why it is like this either?

I used to have this problem all fixed with two great macros in Word 2003 but they no longer work in Word 2010 and so I feel that this problem has not yet been resolved for me in Word 2010.

Has anyone else tried the macros in a corrupt styles Word 2010 document?  If so, which macro or steps worked for you in Word 2010?

Can't Keep Endnotes from Starting on Next Page

Posted: 20 Mar 2015 03:02 PM PDT

I have a 321 page document with 22 chapters.  Each chapter is set up to be its own section.  The chapters end with an Odd Page Section Break.  The Endnotes are set to "End of Section."  For many but not all of the chapters/sections, the Endnotes start on the next page, even though there is more than enough space to have the endnotes begin immediately after the text (as opposed to on the next page).

This is adding two, mostly blank pages to the end of the chapters this is happening in.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Unwanted page break in mail merge

Posted: 20 Mar 2015 02:32 PM PDT

Split from this thread.

See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/WorkWithSections.htm, especially the part titled "If you really want to delete the temporary section break ...".

First of all sorry for my English. In my word document I insert the list of items from Mail Merge code. For example i have 35 items which can be listed on a single page through Mail Merge code. When I reach 35th item, automatically page break applies and add a blank page. Although it should go to next page when the items list exceeded the page limit. How can I remove the hidden Break which I didnt insert and coming when the Mail Merge code insert the data. Any help will be appreciated.

Word 2013 Header Questions

Posted: 20 Mar 2015 02:06 PM PDT

Hello and thank you for taking the time to read my post.  I'm trying to figure out how to manipulate some data.  Hopefully these screenshots will highlight what I want to do.

In the screenshot above you will see what things look like:

1:  This is the header.  I just applied a shading color so you could see it stand out.

2:  This is the actual header.

3:  A textbox over the header.

I'm trying to do exactly what you see in the screenshot.  I have no idea how the background is colored and filled like that in #2.  When I create the header, I can use a shade to color it and stretch it to where I want it.  However, I can't drag the textbox over the header.  Word won't let me.  It will only let me place the textbox below the header.

Problems with page numbering

Posted: 20 Mar 2015 01:51 PM PDT

Split from this thread.

I totally agree. It's ridiculous how terribly difficult Word is to use. I don't want to just rant about it; I've been using Word for as long as I can remember, but it's so much more trouble than it's worth. I sincerely wish that there was another program I could use that could do what I want it to and also be compatible in my line of work.

So I have a document that is upward from 300 pages. I'm having trouble with the page numbers. I've been scrolling through page after page online. Asked tech support. Even called Microsoft for assistance--they did the remote access and all of that... the guy I spoke to spewed a bunch of tech jargon and basically told me he couldn't fix the page numbers unless I paid whatever sum he asked for.

I've followed everyone's advice. I've done the paragraph thing to check for page breaks. There were none. No page breaks were inserted in the document. Spaces and paragraphs and tabs... I even ran the macros to check... None. I did the Alt, Shift, P... I did the Alt F9... There are no new sections, but I tried them anyway. When I did this I was really excited because I thought it was working. I got down to about an 8th of the document before the pages started messing up again. It was just one page off so I thought it'd be simple to correct. I followed the instructions just like I had before and instead of working, it sent me back to the top of the document and all of the numbers were off again! Imagine my frustration! I'm sure you can't. I actually tried this about seven times, trying different variations. Trying to do the same thing slightly different each time. Nothing.

I have a deadline. I really have to finish this document. I really can't fathom why it wouldn't work. Honestly. It is one document. No page breaks, no sections. Page one to page 300whatever and yet the page numbers do not work.

I really sincerely hope someone here can help me because I am going grey here. No one seems to understand why it is not working.

How do I set page numbers book style? (odd pages one corner, even pages the other)

E-Mail Form in Word 2013

Posted: 20 Mar 2015 09:30 AM PDT

I have a company I work with that will send me quotes from time to time. EVERY time I receive their "Word" quote, it appears to be in e-mail editing mode. The "To", "cc", & subject lines are at the top just below the ribbon. It gets VERY irritating because it eats up so much window space. I cannot find how to get rid of this.

It will not let me right click, drag, or anything.

Word tables - Overlapping footer and strange compression

Posted: 20 Mar 2015 09:08 AM PDT

Hi there - I hope you will be able to help me

I use Office 2010 - I have a word table that is misbehaving.

It is doing two strange things:

at the bottom of the page, it overlaps the footer

when editing and I add extra lines, instead of funding webpage break it is automatically, it compresses the table lines over each other. See below.

Extract all acronyms within parentheses, and paste into new document.

Posted: 20 Mar 2015 08:21 AM PDT

Hello! I'm fairly new to macros, and I've spent the better part of this morning trying to find a solution to my problem. I work with documents that range between 20 to 500+ pages in Word 2010. I've been trying to make a macro that will find all 2 or more alphanumeric text between parentheses, and then paste them into a new document. I've tried recording my steps, while using the Advanced Find feature, but when I run the macro, a window pops up and tells me "This method or property is not available because no text is selected." For some reason, manually doing the steps while recording allowed for the results that I needed, just not as a macro.

I'd like to add that I work on a very limited system, or at least limited capability even though I'm using Word 2010 on Windows 7. We are restricted from doing/viewing many things while here at work, so I had to type in my code manually below; I couldn't paste it in or use (or even see) any options to insert my code separately.

 

Sub acro4()

' acro4 Macro

     Selection.Find.ClearFormatting

     WithSelection.Find

          .Text = "\([A-Z]{2,}\)"

          .Replacement.Text = ""

          .Forward = True

          .Wrap = wdFindContinue

          .Format = False

          .MatchCase = False

          .MatchWholeWorld = False

          .MatchAllWordForms = False

          .MatchSoundsLike = False

          .MatchWildcards = True

     End With

     Selection.Copy

     Documents.Add DocumentType:=wdNewBlankDocument

     Selection.PasteAndFormat (wdPasteDefault)

End Sub 

Thank you for your time and assistance!

Read Only File (I created them)

Posted: 20 Mar 2015 08:02 AM PDT

I have followed the discussions, but they address files that have been on OneDrive. Mine are simply random Word files. Arbitrarily, Word decides that a file has to be protected (I changed none of the settings) and I cannot edit and save the file.

Yes, I know I can give it a different name, but it is very annoying to be locked out of a file that you created on this computer...and now you cannot edit it.

Track changes, but not text highlights. Possible?

Posted: 20 Mar 2015 07:19 AM PDT

Hi,

I wouldn't like to track the changes in text highlights. 

Does Word provide any setting I can remove text highlights in order it won't be tracked?

Thanks,

Carlos
