Problem with tables in Word 2010

Posted: 25 Nov 2012 10:50 PM PST

Hi!

I had a strange problem in a 60 page word doc with a few tables. One of the tables in the doc was misbehaving and wouldn't let me change it's border settings. Every time I tried, using the table Borders & Shading dialog, word would freeze and need to be terminated forcefully. I even tried changing borders using VBA, but the code would freeze when I tried to change .LineStyle property of the border.

I have trimmed down the doc to a single page now with just one table and the problem still persists. The doc contains just 2 lines of Heading 1 text followed by the table. The table is completely empty.  Deleting any of the two lines resolves the problem, or moving the table anywhere above its current position also resolves the problem. Also, if I save the doc as docx, the problem is gone.

In short, I do have a few workarounds to the problem but I want to know if anyone else has also faced similar problems and whether this is an issue with Word or there could be another explanation for this.

Thanks! :)

I need to create a directory mail merge in word 2007 that can list multiple invoices for the same vendor, please help?

Posted: 23 Nov 2012 11:51 AM PST

I'm currently creating a process to dump information from our accounting system into excel, grab email addresses and attach them to the proper vendors, dump that email info into word, use a mail merge document to create letters for the vendors, and then email them all out with a vba macro.

 

I'm stuck at the mail merge part, really bad at doing this kind of stuff. I've tried following a catalogue tutorial to set one up and just can't get it to do what I need it to. I've given a basic example of what the data I have looks like, and an example of what I need each letter to look like.

 

Can anyone lead me in the right direction or give an example of the code I need to put on my main document?

 

You guys are awesome, advance compliment!

(note: I do have the email address listed on each line for each vendor, forgot to list it here!)

Word 2010: How to Rotate a Table ??

Posted: 23 Nov 2012 06:45 AM PST

Hello;
 
1) I have a Table with multiple columns, multiple rows, multiple split cells, and text above & below, on a portrait page-layout.
 
2) Selecting the Table, how do I rotate it from horizontal to vertical ??
Think of the Table as an object/image, and want to rotate it 90 deg counter clockwise.
 
3) Neither "Text Direction" nor "Transpose" (even if such feature exists!) will do the job.
 
Any suggestion ??
 
Thank you kindly.

Which could describe me as stupid, I guess.

I found disc management and lo and behold there was my hidden disc. It
wasn't really hidden but it had no drive letter assigned. So, the
computer gave it one. The Win7 Operating system is now on drive letter
"J". I don't know why a personal computer (not a networked one) could
ever have a drive letter "J", but I got one.

I will now try and migrate data off that I could use and start over
again from scratch.

Oh, one other question, as it was already sort of answered here --- I
keep a lot of instalation applications on my hard disk under a folder
called APS, which I've seen before. I know none of them are 64-bit aps.
Is there some kind of way to "install" my older "aps" in compatibility
mode? Does that even make sense.

But seriously, Win7 doesn't automatically assign drive letters to fixed
disk? Did I have to "map" it first?

Cheers computer people.

windows 7 upgrade

Posted: 21 Feb 2010 06:46 AM PST

Windows 7 is supposed to be much more secure than Windows XP. Vista and
Windows 7 users have substantially lower malware infection rates than
Windows XP users.

As for the rest of Windows 7 - well, it's still Windows NT at heart - even
though it has the best Taskbar.

Windows 7 Backup and Restore Utility

What I am really looking for is to backup my current system as a full backup
including everything on my hard drives. Then perform either an incremental
or a differential backup of my entire system so in the event of a complete
and total failure, all I have to do is restore from the latest backup and
within say, an hour, I'm up and running with a system that I had say about
15 hours earlier. It's that simple.

I currently have Norton Ghost 15 for one of my systems but the license is
for one system. I'm looking into other solutions at a much lower cost
(about ~$70.00/system)

BTW, Norton Ghost is NOT what it was back in 2003. IMHO, the only thing
that has stayed the same is the name only.

How do you PERMANENTLY set Word to use inches?

Word 2007 toolbar, i.e. HOME, etc. covers top of document upon opening and then disappears when typing starts

Upon opening a document, new or edit, any item, i.e. Home, covers the top of the document for about an inch, and will disappear completely if I start typing.  If I click "Home" or another heading again, the menu items reappear, but then will not stay open so I can edit without having to keep repeating this procedure.  I had this happen once before and found the resolution by accident but cannot seem to find what I need to click on now.  HELP! 

I can work around it but it is a real pain.  Thanks for any advice you can give me.

"This modification is not allowed because the selection is locked" - Please help, but no the problem has nothing to do with activation or a temporary use of the program.

Posted: 21 Nov 2012 11:17 AM PST

I use a registered copy of Word 2007. It is not a trial version and has been activated for quite some time now. I edit books for authors using Word's Track Changes function, but over the last couple months, Word has developed a very frustrating problem that makes me want to throw the computer out the window at times. When inserting comments that go more than a sentence or two in the reviewing pane, or if I have to delete a letter in the comment, it will stall up temporarily and "This modification is not allowed because the selection is locked" will appear along the bottom bar of the window. After leaving it a minute or two, I can type another letter or two, or delete a letter, then wait for the repeated "This modification is not allowed because the selection is locked" to disappear again. Then repeat the process again. This is an arduous problem that needs to be remedied. Anyone have any ideas of the cause and/or solution? Computer is running windows 7 home with 4gigs of ram, so this shouldn't be a ram or hardware issue.

You should be able to include masters into a "super" master. Then you
can filter by resource. You won't be able "sort" by resource, because
the Gantt chart is a listing of tasks, not resources.

How to create subtotals for groups of tasks in some report or view

Thanks for the tip.

Another problem is when I use grouping in the Gantt View

It's not clear what you mean by "variable costs". If you mean resource

the resource for which rates need to vary. Then hit the Resource
Information icon, or Project/Resource Information. Select the "Costs"
tab and enter the necessary data into the rate table.

Only better suggestion is to ask around the office for someone with a

leveling

Posted: 22 Apr 2004 12:06 PM PDT

You've done that already by setting the leveling to day-by-day. That
setting controls the finest level of granularity the leveling engine will
pay any attention to. The red remains to let you know the resources
affected are still overbooked, albeit for less than a full day's period. If
you want to get rid of it, try leveling on hour-by-hour. Before you decide
just to ignore less than day-by-day, you might give some thought to whether
it's wise or not. If Bill is overbooked by a 15 minute overlap between two
tasks I'm not going to worry about it much either. But if he's scheduled to
wax widgets for 8 hours plus polish fids for 7, that's a signifigant
schedule conflict and I probably should resolve it because he can't do both
at once, thus one will finish a day later than I'd planned for if I don't.
Remember delays can be cummulative - 3 hours here and 4 hours there soon add
up to a project that finishes a month later than you promised the boss it
would - not a resume` enhancer.

The AutoUpdate program should launch and direct you to install 2 updates
sequentially. The updates should fix the problem.

Bob,

i appreciate your honesty in this matter, refreshing that someone can
actually be honest rather than leading someone on a wild goose chase
or providing purely subjective comments to make themselves look good.

Hopefully these people you mentioned will pick up my distress call and
i will hear from them soon.

Take Care,
brad

Just to be clear....

There is a CD Key that has a number format like this:

xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx.

During the install you are presented with a Product Key. This key is used to
contact Microsoft for support.

I'd forego the migration tool if you can possibly help it. Remember that
you have a nice, new, pristine OS on your new computer, migrating will
bring any old problems you might have had with your old machine to the
new computer- especially if you've had the machine for a while.

I prefer fresh installs of all the apps. I used the migration tool once
and really regretted it.

MS Office Already in Use?

Posted: 26 Jan 2007 05:40 PM PST

Well, I am sorry, that error is totally specific :-) There is a Mac
somewhere within sight of your network that is running Office that was
installed with a Product Key that exactly matches your.

Your little brother couldn't have knocked off your disk and hidden one under
his bed, could he? :-)

What do you mean by "An old versions' code?" It is the Product Key that is
the issue here. You should not be able to install Office X and Office 2004
using the same product key. But if you were able to, you would get this
error.

I would suspect your sister's machine. Run the Office Remover on that.
Chances are, someone tried to "Register" the free trial on your sister's
machine, using the code from your CD. If they did, registration would have
failed, but the key is still stuck in the registration module and is thus
causing the error.

Cheers

HELP trying to open Microsoft Works document from PC on a Mac

Posted: 24 Jan 2007 09:17 PM PST

Hi Bob:

Sorry, Michel's right. I think yours is the 3rd request for a Works
converter for Mac in the past 12 months. Out of 300-million Microsoft Users
that's not a *high* priority.

If we had 100,000-odd requests for it, then it might be a "major oversight".
As it is, of all the many things Mac Business Unit could spend our money on,
that one is not up at the top of the list.

Word for OS 9 has a Works converter in it. Current versions of PC Word have
a Works converter. And the current word-processor in Works is Word, which
will convert the old version of Works to RTF, which can be read anywhere,
including the Mac.

Cheers

Total number of pages in a document.

Posted: 23 Nov 2012 11:58 AM PST

Is there a way to insert the "total number of pages" at the front of the report.  I.e. this report contains a total of # pages.  Essentially in the page numbering section,  it would be the y in: Page x of "y".  Thanks in advance

Office 2007 Translator missing a LOT of languages

Posted: 23 Nov 2012 06:36 AM PST

Hi,

Had a computer crash a couple of weeks ago and had to re-install my Office 2007.  Just went to use my translation portion of Word for the first time and found a HUGE gap in my languages.  I have English, French, and Spanish.  That's it.  I have used the program in the past for Chinese (Mandrin and Cantonese, Russian, German, Romanian, Dutch, and others).  Those are just a few off the top of my head.  I deal in an international business that sometimes requires international translation.  

I did a 'repair' on the program and made sure everything was installed.  Anyone got an idea?  I know those languages are in the program, I just need to know how to get them back.

Thanks,

Marie

Help with section breaks please...

Posted: 23 Nov 2012 05:35 AM PST

I'm rather lost on this....I have a document which has 5 pages.   I have to insert a neew front page and add text.   I have to insert page numbers to pages except the new front page  and the last page.  I also have to add a header on each page except the front page.   I've tried doing this different ways, have read so much that I'm completely lost!

Am I right in thinking I have to insert a section break at the top of document to insert a new front page?  I have tried insert a new page but I end up in a muddle!   Also, the last page has to have a section break to the left of the text at the top of the page?

If anyone has the time, would they mind giving me step by step what to do/click on etc?  I'm baffled!

How to underline text in header or footer...

Posted: 23 Nov 2012 05:07 AM PST

Can anyone tell me how to place a single bottom border to text which must be right aligned in a header please?  I've gone into Insert tab and gone into Headers, and say I want to choose the first one "blank".  I have tried using tab to move the text to the right and I have tried to right align the text to get it where I want.  Then when I've gone into borders, and chosen insert a bottom border, it unlerlines the whole of the area even where there is no text.  Can anyone show or explain how to do this properly please?  Many Thanks.

Problem Saving Document Properties

How to select all objects by draging all objects in a single click?

Posted: 23 Nov 2012 03:32 AM PST

Hi,

I am using Microsoft Word 2010 and a newbie.

May I ask about, how to select all objects just like in the screenshot (link provided below) with drag and select all. Those objects are outside or without drawing canvas. It will take time for me to select the object one-by-one using Ctrl + Left Click on each object.

Really need solution asap.

Addresses not printing in correct position on DL envelope

Posted: 22 Nov 2012 07:56 AM PST

I have Word 2007 installed as part of MS Office 2007 Professional on a desktop PC running Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) and also installed on a Notebook computer running Windows 7 Home Premium (32 bit).

I have been able to use Word 2007 to print DL envelopes with a normal delivery address in the centre and a return address in the top left corner. 

Recently when trying to print an envelope on the desktop PC, when opening the Mailings-Envelopes menu and using my normal envelope and printing options, the envelope is printing with the addresses printed in positions opposite to that shown on the icon displayed in the printing options and also the return address block is indented in from the edge of the envelope by about 3 cm.  Using the "Add to Document" button certainly shows the whole return address block in a separate section at the top of the page offset in from the left side of the page.  The Return address settings in the envelope option shows it is set to Auto from Left and the Preview icon indicates it appears in top left of envelope.

Using Word 2007 on my Notebook there is no problem with the positioning of the address blocks on the envelope.

I initially thought it could be a corrupt global template file Norm.dotm on the desktop so I copied the Norm.dotm across from the Notebook to replace the file on the desktop, but the problem still exits.

I did try using another envelope size and found that most of the other sizes do not create the problem. 

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Office 2007 on my desktop computer, but the problem still remains.  I am puzzled over what may have suddenly caused this problem in a specific installation of Office when it was working perfectly before.
