Microsoft Word - Mail Merge BCM 2010 & Word 2010

Microsoft Word - Mail Merge BCM 2010 & Word 2010

Mail Merge BCM 2010 & Word 2010

Posted: 25 Mar 2015 03:16 PM PDT

I must be missing something... Trying to perform a physical print mail merge from a list of business contact manager biz contacts and have the correct mailing address merged with the <<AddressBlock>> merge field preset in a new Word document. By correct, I mean the mailing address (either home, business, or other) that corresponds to the checkbox titled "This is the mailing address" in the BCM contact record.

Many contacts have all three address allocations filled, and we need to send correspondence to the correct mailing address which may be a biz address for one record and a home address for another record. So simply mapping the <<AddressBlock>> components such as Address1 to Business Street (as defaulted in a Word/BCM mail merge document) will not work because every merged letter addressed to those contacts who do not have a business address listed will merge with no address displayed, even if they have a home address listed and the "This is the mailing address" checkbox is checked next to the Home address.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Word won't work now because it says I'm missing VBE6INT.DLL

Posted: 25 Mar 2015 02:26 PM PDT

The OCR software that came with my scanner wasn't working, so I tried downloading Microsoft Document Imaging. I couldn't find a way to download it on its own, but I found instructions on how to download it as part of Sharepoint Designer, then deselecting everything in the installation except for MDI.

Then I found I got that missing VBE6INT.DLL error when I tried to use Word. Word won't even function now.

So I thought maybe I should uninstall MDI, but I couldn't find it in my programs list. So I thought maybe I needed to uninstall Sharepoint Designer (which I already had anyway, but somehow MDI hadn't been a part of it).

 But after the uninstall, Word still doesn't work.

I found a website that says VBE6INT.DLL is probably a file used by more than one Microsoft program and that when you install or uninstall something, that file can be moved so the system can't find it where it thinks it should be.

The site had instructions for fixing it with the CLI, but it didn't work for me.

It also suggested fixing the Registry but only by using Microsoft products since registry cleaners can come with malware. That site recommended WinThrust which turned out to be paid software that isn't connected with Microsoft at all. So I tried to get it to at least fix the first 15 free errors, but it didn't help. I then uninstalled WinThrust.

I tried running Microsoft Security Essentials, but if it fixed any registry problems, it sure doesn't show. Word still won't work.

But now I'm stumped. I don't know what else to try to fix this. Our IT person doesn't know either. Her first solution to everything is to erase everything and reinstall. Help!

Can't get Word 2013 macro-enabled template to work

Posted: 25 Mar 2015 08:35 AM PDT

Hi Guy's,

I have a macro-enabled template, .dotm, which includes a button on the Quick Access toolbar. Clicking this button runs a macro which saves the files to a location on the user's machine with a generated file name and also gives the user the option to open the folder where it is saved to.

The template was created in Word 2010 and is stored in Word's STARTUP folder for each user, C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP

all of whom are running Windows 7 professional with a mix of Office 2010 and Office 2013

There are no problems in Word 2010. However when opening a new document in Word 2013 the button appears on the Quick Access toolbar as expected but when clicked the message "The macro cannot be found or has been disabled because of your Macro security settings." is displayed.

I don't understand why this is as all the macros settings are fully enabled, plus

- startup folder being a trusted location

- Macro security set to "enable all macros"

- Template loaded and ticked in the Templates and Add-ins property window

- Protected view turned off

Does anyone have any ideas?

Rebooting Windows 7 with open Word files leaves a mess.

Posted: 25 Mar 2015 08:17 AM PDT

I'm running Microsoft Word 2007 on Widows 7 .  I usually have a half dozen or more Word files open at the same time.  If Word crashes, or Microsoft comes along in the middle of the night and reboots my system, I'm left with a mess when I restart Word.  In the left pane under "Document Recovery" are all the Word files I had open with "Repaired" notices. When I click one it opens in Word but if I try to save it I get the message:

If I click Show Repairs I always see something about Bookmarks,  like:

I close this and hit Save, where Word wants to save the file under a name that adds "(Repaired)" to the original name.   After the save I then have to go back and rename the last good save of the file under a name that includes the date it was saved, and then rename this new "Repaired" file to the current version of the file, i.e., remove the "(Repaired)". 

This is a real pain to go through every time Word crashes or Microsoft reboots my computer, so how can I avoid this?  I never set or use bookmarks in my Word files so I don't know why it's complaining about Bookmarks.  Is there a way to completely disable them?

Thanks for any help.

Word is slow, but Excel and PowerPoint are not

Posted: 25 Mar 2015 08:10 AM PDT

Excel and PowerPoint 2007 are percolating along just fine.   Big documents are sometimes slow, but they are big documents, which is to be expected.  I am patient.  However Word is a different animal.  It takes days to just open.  This isn't opening a file, just to open.  Once I'm in, working with a file isn't an issue.  Saving can be slow too.  Any ideas on how to speed up Word?  It seems like there was some event that caused it to slow down, but I can't pin point what caused this (an update, installing something new, phase of the moon, didn't like my new phone).  Thanks!

Displaying Hebrew

Posted: 25 Mar 2015 07:50 AM PDT

Hello:

Having searched, read and not really found what I need, I am asking here.

I have a .doc, which I resaved as docx (Word 2010), with Hebrew in it. The Hebrew shows as jibberish.

At this moment, I do not have to write in Hebrew, just be able to display English and Hebrew in the same document. What do I need to do (I would like to know if I can check what I already have, and the go from there)?

I have Win 7 Ultimate, 64-bit.

Thank you!

Is page x of y possible?

Posted: 25 Mar 2015 07:48 AM PDT

In the version of Word I had before this Word Starter 2010 thing I could put "page x of y" anywhere I wanted. Ever since I got this Word Starter 2010 thing, "page x of y" hasn't happened because I'm not smart enough to understand if it is possible in Starter, let alone figure out how to do it. If anyone knows if page x of y is possible in Starter, and you know of remedial instructions that I may be able to understand, I would greatly appreciate any information you may wish to share on this subject.

Posted: 25 Mar 2015 06:02 AM PDT

Hi

Is there any way to create a code that would find a closing quotation mark, preceded by full point/period, at the end of a quote starting with lower case, but not at the end of one starting with an initial cap? For example,  it would find 'this is the life.' but would not find 'This is the life.' Likewise, is there a code to do things the other way round, finding 'This is the life'. but not 'this is the life'.?

Finally, is there a code for finding material within parentheses beginning with an initial cap and ending with a full point/period outside, rather than inside, the closing parenthesis? E.g. It would find (Hi there, nice to meet you). but not (Hi there, nice to meet you.)?

I've struggled with these for countless hours but had no success.

Thanks, and best wishes

Creating/printing a right-edge binding booklet

Automatic switch of font when printing

Posted: 25 Mar 2015 01:11 AM PDT

Hi,

I have been searching through online communities, wikis and all sorts of information sources, but have been unable to find an answer to my question.

Perhaps you can help me.

I'm using Microsoft Word 2013 (15.0.4701.1001) as part of Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013. I am creating manuals for our clients and some of them prefer reading them straight on a computer or tablet, some of them prefer a printed version. I am wondering if I can make a document that is read with a sans-serif font on screen (in this case Calibri), but if the user decides to print the document, the document will automatically be printed with serif font (I'm thinking Cambria)?

Today we simply get around this by making two versions of the same document, but that means double the work when something needs to be revised or reformatted.

Best regards,

Oa

Word 2010 document prints different than it looks, since March's Updates were installed.

Posted: 24 Mar 2015 09:24 PM PDT

After March's Office (2010) and Windows 7 updates, I am having issues with Word 2010. I use a self-created template for a monthly newsletter. The last page, which is a table consisting of three rows, some of which have columns that were merged: The first row has been merged, the second row has two columns with centered text in each, and the third row has been merged.

I have used this template successfully for several months until now. Today, while working on the document containing the last page in question, I attempted to insert a graphic. When I clicked on insert, my mouse (laptop touch pad mouse) started spinning, Word encountered a problem,  when another Windows Update interrupted, but Word returned recovered. Since then, the last page, which never gave me issues before, fills up one page, but is spread slightly to the next, as if there is too much information for one page. I had to remove the last row for the table to fit on one page. Print View shows the table completely filling the page.

However, when I print the page, a large gap or blank space shows where the removed row previously existed. (Again, it appears full while viewing, but not when printed.)

None of my printer settings have been altered, unless an unknown glitch did something to the settings.

I have an Asus laptop, Windows 7, Office 2010. If you need any more information let me know.

I have had the most problems with Windows updates, which messed up my web cam and caused me to have to do a system restore on another occasion. Please help!

Microsoft Word

User Does Not Have Access Privileges

Posted: 24 Mar 2015 04:02 PM PDT

I really need help with this because I've been trying to research this problem all day. I can not access a Word document that I saved in one of my folders. All of the other word documents are fine in the same folder but when I press this particular file that I had just saved (approximately 2 seconds had passed before I tried reopening the doc.) the message pops up "Word cannot open the document: User does not have access privileges".

It doesn't make any sense to me because I am the admin and there are no other user profiles on this laptop.

People keep saying that I have to claim ownership of the file but when I try to do that I get another message.

Here's what I did:

  1.  Right click on the document
  2.  Click Properties
  3.  Click Security tab
  4.  Click Advanced
  5.  On top it says Unable to display current owner. I Click on Change
  6. Then it says "You do not have permission to view or edit this Object's permission settings"

If I attach the doc. to an email I can attempt to open it but then I get a message saying that it's corrupted. If it being corrupt means I can no longer access the file EVER because it's damaged, can someone please explain WHY this happened. I worked hard on this doc. and "saved as" under one of my folders I often use, closed Word, then I realized that I needed to add something so I tried to reopen it. I must add that I can actually open the doc. from inside Word but not through File Explorer.   I don't know what any of this means , maybe it's all simple, but I have no idea how to work computers so it would be greatly appreciated if someone can help me please.

Office Small Business 2007 only, AFAIK, allows installation on one device

You really need to look at the CD for the version of Office you have and if
it is, in fact Small Business you need to read the license agreement again.

The only other way to get Small Business for more than the one/one
installation is to buy a volume license and that starts at 5 computers.

When you point to your Volume Icon, you should get a Tooltip with

That's because my on-board Modem is a Voice Modem used for

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table

From "man fdisk" ...
fdisk doesn't understand GUID Partition Table (GPT) and it is not
designed for large
partitions. In particular case use more advanced GNU parted(8).

While your kernel appears to have guid support enabled, you have
to use partitioning software that also supports it, and you have
to select guid as the partition table type (aka gpt).

With parted, you would use "mklabel gpt", followed by the normal
partition creation.

Xen is primarily suited for server deployment, albeit that it can be
used with workstation set-ups as well - see her down The thing
about Xen is that it's a bare metal hypervisor, so it doesn't run
inside a host operating system. Everything running on top of Xen -
including the management system - is a virtual machine.

It's similar to how mainframes work, but with the difference that the
operating system in direct control of the hypervisor on a mainframe is
a specialized single-user system, while on Xen it must be either
GNU/Linux, NetBSD, OpenBSD or (Open)Solaris, all of which are
UNIX-style systems and thus multi-user. It is however advised,
especially for server set-ups, not to have any users log into the
management virtual machine, or perhaps, just one user, and have that
user then use /su/ and/or /sudo/ to obtain root privileges.

(Note with regard to the above: I always disable all direct root logins,
both remote and local, on all of my machines, virtual or physical, and
thus an unprivileged user account must then be used to log in directly,
and /su/ from there on. This means that any cracker breaking into the
system must instead of guessing only the root password now guess my
user account's login, its password, and then the root password.)

If you intend to run GNU/Linux-only guest systems (and as servers), then
you might also want to look into OpenVZ and Vserver as an alternative
solution. This is another kind of virtualization, at the operating
system level, i.e. you then run multiple userspace "containers" (also
called "zones") on top of a common kernel, with one userspace context
being "the host", from which you can access all others.

OpenVZ and Vserver are similar to eachother but there are some important
differences. For instance, Vserver uses a copy-on-write system for the
guests which is economic in diskspace, but OpenVZ has more
possibilities and uses a more recent kernel - 2.6.18 for "stable" and
2.6.26 and 2.6.27 for "testing". Another operating system which offers
this kind of virtualization would for instance be (Open)Solaris.

Personally I would like to see the OpenVZ adopted into the upstream
Linux kernel. It already has a now quite mature Xen support built-in
(for both dom0 and domU) and it also offers KVM and lguest as
additional virtualization technologies, but those are too much akin to
the third party virtual machine monitor set-ups of VMWare (Workstation)
and VirtualBox. Operating system level virtualization would be a nice
complement to GNU/Linux, especially since OpenSolaris already offers it
as well, and if I'm not mistaken, then FreeBSD also already had it at
one stage (although I think they've removed it again now - I'm not
sure.)

In the event of a Xen set-up, each of the virtual machines runs a
complete operating system, i.e. kernel plus userspace. So there's a
little more RAM overhead than with OpenVZ or Vserver. Otherwise, Xen
performs very well in comparison. With paravirtualization, performance
of the guests is only some 1% or 2% slower than if they were running on
the bare metal.

Another advantage is that Xen can run different types of guest operating
systems. You can even run Windows as an unprivileged guest on Xen, but
only on the condition that your hardware has virtualization extensions,
because Windows can obviously not be paravirtualized, since the code is
not free. Microsoft did at one stage - during the development of Xen -
supply a paravirtualized version of Windows XP, but this version was
never licensed for retail; it was solely intended for testing by the
Xen developers.

Performance-wise, hardware virtualization is slower than
paravirtualization, though. With hardware virtualization, part of the
hardware the HW virtual machine sees is emulated by Xen, using the Qemu
device manager. This emulated hardware is also not exactly "the latest
and greatest", but at least it works reliably.

Paravirtualization on the other hand is an approach in which the
unprivileged guest operating system is "aware" that it is running
virtualized. A paravirtual guest has a kernel which uses
so-called "front-end" drivers, which are basically an abstraction layer
that connects to the "real" back-end drivers running in the dom0
virtual machine. So there is no emulation involved, and all of the
systems running on that one physical machine actually become one big
multifunctional virtual machine operating system. Again, it's like a
mainframe system.

Xen also allows the sysadmin to tailor performance by configuring how
many virtual CPUs each guest can use, and for performance-critical
virtual machines, it is possible to assign one or multiple physical CPU
cores to them, so that the other virtual machines cannot use those.
There are also multiple scheduling options for shared physical CPUs.

On the networking side of things, Xen defaults to bridging, but it is
possible to use routing/NAT as well - scripts are supplied to easily
set up whatever configuration you prefer. Xen also supports isolating
certain hardware from the management virtual machine (dom0) so that
this hardware can be directly accessed by one of the unprivileged
virtual machines (domU), which is then considered a "secondary driver
domain"; this is again often applied in (Open)Solaris, even with Sun's
own bare metal hypervisor - I forgot what it's called. In other words,
if you're running a virtual machine which needs a lot of network
bandwidth and your physical machine has two NICs, then you can choose
to hide one NIC from dom0 and have this particular virtual machine
access the second NIC directly with a regular driver and without having
to use the bridging or routing via dom0's NIC.

The machine I am currently working on - i.e. setting up; I'm not talking
of the machine I am typing this from - is going to be running Xen with
multiple paravirtualized Gentoo GNU/Linux virtual machines - the dom0
plus two domUs. One of the domUs will have direct access to a limited
set of hardware - i.e. a dedicated PCIe video adapter card, the
on-board sound chip and all USB hubs - which will then of course be
hidden from dom0, and the second domU will be running an OpenVZ kernel
with multiple "zones", installed as "headless servers".

Virtualization on top of virtualization, and all of it is Free & Open
Source Software. ;-) (Okay, that last line was specifically intended
for COLA. :p)

Errrggghhh!)

Manuel actually asked an interesting question, the sort that's worth
trying to answer and educate with even if it seems foolish to someone
already more familiar with how these things work.

For example: optimizing the "initrd", which is not actually a script
but a compressed, mountable file system for old reasons involving
bootstrapping from 1.44 MByte floppies, is an interesting way to try
to speed things up. Optimizing the init scripts, which is a different
matter, is actually something people are actively pursuing, and it's
one of the lengthier parts of the boot procedure. Optimizing the BIOS
itself is also possible, but takes considerable courage and some
knowledge to do. (LinuxBIOS isn't broadly supported yet, but it's
awfully cool if you can make it work.)

Manuel, I'm glad you're more clear now on the difference between grub,
the boot loader, and the init processes. They're tricky: they're shell
scripts, fitting a very standardized layout to ease management, but
they really *weren't* written for speed. For example, throwing out all
that nice sanity checking of config files and testing whether they
exist is going to slow things down. And the various funky bits
designed to make the printouts look pretty are a complete waste of
most user's time: We don't care of the output is "OK" or a splufty,
pretty green OK printing subroutine, but we needn't waste our time
loading up shell function files if we just print "OK".

Word 2013 blank boxes appear and disappear when closing

Posted: 24 Mar 2015 02:02 PM PDT

Hello,

Oddly enough, today a colleague was working on a previously saved Word 2013 document and after making changes they went and pressed the X to close at the top right. Normally a window pops up asking if you would like to save or close the document as changes have been made. With this document, which appears not to be corrupted or anything of the sort, a blank box pops up and disappears several times before finally being replaced by the typical dialogue box, once selecting to save or discard the mystery box does the same thing several times until it asks the same thing. The only way seemingly out of the loop is to cancel the operation; closing the program. I can go to File and press Save and it works properly and allows me to then close the program. However I am wondering if anyone has any clue about this mystery disappearing box trick as I would love to be able to fix the problem so that it does not happen again on a document that cannot be lost.

Split from this thread.

I don't know whether I can get any help on this issue but I am having the same problem. A person send me a document with their edits (identified as "author" no matter what). Then I proceed to insert my edits and I have to physically go in at the beginning of each edit session under Review options and put my user name (otherwise it assumes I'm the "author" too.)  The edits I put in are in a different color. But as soon as I save, my edits are the same color and the edits are now identified as "author")   I've lost all productivity because I haven't found a good work around.

Sign in to Office (an issue with disabling said feature)

Posted: 24 Mar 2015 11:03 AM PDT

Okay a bit of a back story.  The company I work for has asked that I essentially neuter Office to the best of my abilities from communicating with the outside world for privacy reasons.

One of the issues is with it signing in to Microsoft.

I followed the steps to either edit the registry or to use the Group Policy editor to change 'block signing into office' to enabled with the maximum setting.

The issue is that when Word or Excel for example are loaded, it still prompts in the top right corner to "Sign in to get the most out of Office".  Fine, I get that.  If I click on it, sometimes (not always), it will display a box that says this feature has been disabled by your administrator.  GOOD!  However, I click the X to close it, and immediately click to sign in again, and it pops up the same box, this time with it asking for an email address.

Close Word, and repeat the process and it's hit or miss if it will say it's disabled or ask for an email address.

Using the latest version of Office (all up to date as far as I can tell).  Frustrating!

Mail Merge Rules and Next Record

Posted: 24 Mar 2015 10:40 AM PDT

Hi, 

I am creating a personalized agenda that I am trying to populate from an excel file. A couple problems:

1- the document is a custom template to print on a perforated page, so i dare not mess with it too much. I created the agenda template from a table.  I am using the If, then rules to populate the table and I think it's working ok, on the template on the left side of the sheet anyways. 

How do I get the template on the right side of the page to populate?

I though the Next record function might work but I was getting an error message about not being able to post in headers or margins or something. 

How do I get the next person's agenda to populate on the right, and the person after that to populate on a subsequent page?

Would be happy to share my docs to anyone who can help.

Thanks!

Mail Merge Data is Not Showing What is in the Database Field

How do I copy a list item from Word to a third-party application WITHOUT also copying the liste item number,letter,marker,etc.?

Posted: 24 Mar 2015 08:27 AM PDT

I have Word for Office 365.

I have a document with a numbered list.

I want to copy the text from one of the list items and paste it into another program.

I select JUST THE TEXT (taking great pains to NOT include the empty space at the end of the line) and copy it by either pressing CTRL+C or using the COPY button in the ribbon.

I open up a third-party program and press CTRL+V to paste the copied text into the third-party program.

When I do this the line of text is pasted, but prepended to this line of text is the list time. So instead of seeing:

This is some text

I see:

a.    This is some text.

How can I stop this from happening?

Under FILE -> OPTIONS -> ADVANCED -> CUT, COPY, AND PASTE I have "Keep bullets and numbers when pasting text with Keep Text Only option" unchecked. I have all "Pasting..." options above this set to "Keep Text Only". I do not think these settings apply to my issue because they are for pasting into Word not copying.

I have no options for controlling how things are copied under this "CUT, COPY, and paste" section.

Thank you for your help.

Microsoft office 2013 problems

Posted: 24 Mar 2015 08:14 AM PDT

I downloaded office 2013 and it has not worked well since the day I got it. I had 2010 on my computer and upgraded to be able to use more office products. 2013 programs will start to open and freeze. Then I will have to ctrl-alt-del to effectively 'push' the programs to open. That still only sometimes works. Also, randomly, I will be working (writing a paper or something) and I will click on the internet to maybe look up information, and when I click back into the MS program it will be completely frozen again. I will have to ctrl-alt-del many, many times to push it through again.

PLEASE HELP ME. This is awful.

PS I know I selected MS Office Word, but it happens an all of them.

Insane behavior of Word document!

Posted: 24 Mar 2015 04:07 AM PDT

I'm tearing my hair out!

I have a document that when I paste text from another document, whether just one line or a whole paragraph, there is a non-deletable space of half a page suddenly inserted in the document THREE PARAGRAPHS ABOVE where I am pasting the text.

I've even pasted the text into Notepad so there's no formatting at all - just plain text - it STILL inserts this gap when I copy and paste from Notepad.

How on earth can I get rid of this gap?

It's driving me insane!

Radio buttons appear as pictures and no longer work in Word 2010

Posted: 24 Mar 2015 03:15 AM PDT

I received a file from a customer containing radio buttons with a Yes/No choice. Everything worked fine until a couple of days ago. I must have accidentally hit a combination of keys on the keyboard that changed my settings in some way. Now I can no longer select any of the radio buttons in the document. When I click on them, it's as if I selected a picture. When I double-click them, a properties window appears showing the properties for "This document" (and not the radio button's properties). The weird thing is that on my colleagues' computer everything works fine.

I have searched the internet and tried all kinds of solutions (removing the *.exd files, reinstalling Office, etc. etc.) but nothing works. I am really getting desperate now, since I have a deadline to fill out the document and I cannot do it.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks!

Converting Word file to PDF with embeded PDF documents

Posted: 24 Mar 2015 03:10 AM PDT

I have a report which includes a number of PDF files which have been embedded within it, however to add security during distribution I need to PDF the master document. Unfortunately, as I convert the file to PDF using the 'Save As' function in Word 2010, all the embedded files are lost.

Is there any way to convert the word document to PDF and retain these embedded files, or am I going to have to re-insert them again in Acrobat?

Any help would be appreciated.

Apologies if this is an old topic, however I have uncovered a lot of questions and discussions on embedding files, but not in their retention in the subsequent conversion of the master file to pdf also.

Thanks in advance.

Word 2013 Table of contents - page numbers all change to 2 when print (or print preview)

Posted: 24 Mar 2015 12:04 AM PDT

I have a single section document in Word 2013.  The first page is a TOC.  The document is 4 pages

long and has three Level 1 Heading styles through out the document.  The TOC initially appears correct. 

When I go to Print Preview the TOC will revert all page numbers to 2. 

Changing the Options "Update fields before printing" and  "Allow fields containing tracked changes to update before printing" has no effect (before anyone suggests this).

The only solution is to manually update the TOC, save to PDF, and print the PDF.

Anyone can reproduce this problem. Try it....

  1. Start with blank document
  2. Insert a TOC (ignore the error message, we will come back to this)
  3. Go to the end of the document and insert a page break to move to page 2
  4. Now type a heading in Heading 1 style and press enter
  5. type some dummy text (=rand(20) for example)
  6. Continue steps 4 and 5 to insert more headings and dummy text.
  7. Now return to the top (page 1) and update the TOC
  8. So far so good.  Everything working well
  9. Now go to Print Preview (Ctrl+P)
  10. Everything is still good
  11. Escape back to the document
  12. Go to Print Preview again
  13. AGGGHHHH! All the page numbers have reverted to page 2
  14. Happens every time without fail.  Totally reproducible on all our office PCs.

I have seen many descriptions of this behavior on different forums and not one solution. But I am like the proverbial dog with a bone - I will not let this issue go until MS gives me a solution !

How not to mess up a range

Posted: 23 Mar 2015 08:12 PM PDT

I have a bunch of Word macros which allow me to do some time-saving bulk editing on my documents input from OCR. I was trying to make one of them work better by converting it to use Range.Find instead of Selection.Find. In doing so I made some improvements that I do not want to lose, but I broke the code in the process and do not see how to correct it.

Sub pig()
    Dim rng As Range
    Dim keepGoing As Boolean
    
    ' Look for at least 15 characters of text at the beginning of a

    ' line, valid characters are:
    ' space, uppercase, numeric, - or ~
    Set rng = ActiveDocument.Range(start:=Selection.start, _

         End:=ActiveDocument.content.End)
    rng.Find.MatchWildcards = True
    rng.Find.Style = ActiveDocument.styles("Normal")
    rng.Find.text = "^13[~\- 0-9A-Z]{15,}"
    
    keepGoing = True
    Do Until keepGoing = False
        ' this fails second time around unless I remove the Delete below

        If rng.Find.Execute Then

            rng.Select
            ' Move the start of selection to avoid ^13

            Selection.MoveStart unit:=wdCharacter, count:=1

            Selection.Delete
        Else
            keepGoing = False
        End If
    Loop
End Sub

I have removed most of the actual functionality to reduce the size of this example which does reproduce the problem.  When I run the above code on my text, the first call to rng.Find.Execute works, but the second and subsequent calls fail, somehow I seem to have broken the Range.  If I remove the Selection.Delete the find works every time but my code needs to delete the selected text. Please forgive me if I still have some Selection code in there because I am still only a noob at Ranges, and therein may lie my problem.  I tried range.delete and range.insertafter to put in the replacement text I want to insert, but it still failed the second time through.

How can I avoid destroying the range?

Right click freezes Office 2013

Not everytime I right click, but only occasionally (I cannot figure out under what occasion). After freezing, I must restart the program and lose the data. Otherwise, the program works fine. This has been occurring regularly over a couple months, and I've simply been working around it, but it almost seems to be getting worse. I don't have any knowledge on how to solve this particular issue. Any help or suggestions here would be greatly appreciated.

Word2000 spell checker block "disregarded during the spell check"

Posted: 23 Mar 2015 05:16 PM PDT

I've never seen this in using Word 2000 for all these years (even before the 2000 version) but it appeared on our secretary's computer (new Dell 3647, Windows 7 Pro, using Office 2000 for Word and Excel only). When you start a spell check, you get a message about a particular block is o be disregarded during the spell check.

It first appeared after fooling around with tools>options>spelling where we unchecked the boxes to ignore uppercase and words with numbers. I do not know if we have rechecked that. I will check tomorrow with the secretary. Could that cause the message about disregarding a block? Or what else did we accidentally change?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions (but please do not recommend using a newer version of Word. It's possible but I'm am much more comfortable helping her with 2000).
