Microsoft Word - Too Many Spaces Between Senteces

Microsoft Word - Too Many Spaces Between Senteces

Too Many Spaces Between Senteces

Posted: 05 Dec 2012 05:49 AM PST

My documents frequently have too many spaces (2,3,4,5) between sentences, as a result of all my editing. It's cumbersome to remove all these spaces. Is there a way to quickly or automatically remove all these excess spaces, without changing the space between paragraphs? I don't want to merge paragraphs. Whithin a paragraph, I do want my sentences separated by a single space. I'm not sure how to do this with the standard Word commands. Could a macro perform this function? What macro do you suggest? Thank you. 

Tool to tally number of captions in a Word document

Posted: 05 Dec 2012 05:20 AM PST

Is there a plug-in or offline (batch) tool that provides a count of the number of captions (for figures and tables) in a Word document (or for all word documents in a folder)? 
The reason for asking this question is that we will shortly have to make all documents comply with accessibility standards which will require alt text to be prepared and inserted for all plots and tables, and I would like an automated way of calculating amount of work (have many hundreds of documents that are potentially affected).  The next step would be to create the alttext 'offline' and then insert automatically.

Quotation Marks do not appear correctly when typed in front of a word beginning with a vowel.

Posted: 04 Dec 2012 05:16 PM PST

My father-in-law has a new computer with the Microsoft Home Office version (a.k.a. Student version); he has problems with quotations in Word:  when he tries to type a vowel or a word beginning with a vowel in quotes, ie "a", he gets a with two dots above it.  This only happens on words which begin with a vowel.  His language is set as English and all other keys/letters and symbols work fine.  Also, when he hits the quotation key, the quote marks to not appear until he types a word or hits the space bar.  How can he fix his quotation marks so they type correctly for words begining with a vowel?

bookmarks as an external reference document

Posted: 04 Dec 2012 02:04 PM PST

i placed all my bookmarks on page 1, and numerous reference fields throughout the document pull info from these entries. when i distribute the document i want to delete the bookmark page, but then all my reference fields change to Error! (etc). Can i make the bookmark page an external reference source and still keep the data intact in my document? I have a macro to update all fields and it works fine within the document. when i print-preview it also updates the fields and that works fine as well. it isn't until i delete the bookmark page that the reference fields go into error.  also, when i distribute the document, i convert it to pdf because i have a lot of formatting in it and i worked hard to develop this document, i'm not willing to share the formatting, only the content. when i convert to pdf, all reference fields go to error, even if i don't update them after deleting the bookmark page.
i've been using this document template just fine for years in other versions of word - it's only the word 2010 that has this problem with the changes in developers tools. i am sure it can be done - i just don't know how.
does anyone know how this can be approached?

Why can't I change my TOC levels back to the way they were?

Posted: 03 Dec 2012 01:54 PM PST

Hi,

 

I experimented w/ showing an extra level (4, where it was previously set to 3) in my ToC.  But now I can't change it back again, even though when I go back in it IS showing '3'!  1) Why is it showing 3, when it's clearly reporting 4?, and 2) How can I really set it (back) to 3?

 

Thanks!

Text background is purple and unable to remove it.

Posted: 03 Dec 2012 12:09 PM PST

I'm writing a document on Microsoft Word 2010 and at some point I copy-and-pasted some text from a site that happened to have a purply-pink background. This has appeared in the text background, and now when I type something, it all has that purple-pink background. I tried removing it with the highlighter, but it doesn't work. How to I get rid of the background colour from the entire thing?

How to replace external links with internal links

Posted: 03 Dec 2012 11:31 AM PST

I have a Word document with roughly 500+ links that all link back to the original document. This means that when I click on a link it opens a new copy of the document. Is there a way to remove the external part of the link while maintaining the individual link?

Example of link in edit mode:
../../Downloads/LCM%20Training%20Manual3.doc#_Use_case:__5

If I manually remove the path and just leave #_Use_case:__5 the link converts to an internal one. Is there any way to do this on a mass scale?

I have already tried to hit alt+F9 and use replace to remove the start of the link, but it still appears to direct to the same point.

MICROSOFT WORD SOFTWARE

MICROSOFT WORD SOFTWARE 

I just do not understand the Microsoft question? I signed in my Hotmail account and the answer I get is I don't have any official products. What does this mean? What do I have to do to activate the Word program? Microsoft has given me time till 5th December. After that what happens? Incidentally the Word software that was installed by the company I purchased this computer when I was in the USA in Oct/Nov 2012, had installed the word software and I was give Windows 8 also. I now cannot understand what is happening? I am 66 years old.  Bryan Baptist  

Inserting a running number after every 120 words of text in document

Posted: 02 Dec 2012 07:12 PM PST

I do a weekly radio talk and I need to pace, the speed at which I talk.
What I need is a marker, say a running number in brackets, something like [*1*], [*2*], [*3*] etc to appear after every 120 words.
The number of words could vary.
What I have been doing is manual numbering, this is tedious and if there are any edits, then I have to re-number all over again.
Thanks in advance.

Why does the print settings "stick" on subsequent print jobs?

Posted: 03 Dec 2012 03:19 AM PST

Hi,

I have print macros which allows users to print from different printer trays., i.e. Print letterhead and plain copy, print letterhead only etc. We have used these Macros for years without any hitch on Word 2003.  Recently we have had some new PCs in stalled with Windows 7, Word 2010 installed.  The macros still work but if we then open an invoice and change the printer to "Print on both sides x 3 copies" (which again we have always done in Word 2003 without problems) then any subsequent jobs sent to the printer retain these settings regardless of which macro we use to print.

It seems the only way to get rid of the "print on both sides x 3" setting is to Quit Word and start again which we have to do after printing every invoice!!

This has only happened since going to Word 2010.

 

Thank you,

D Smith

Calibri no longer an option after installing Office 2013 RTM

Posted: 02 Dec 2012 07:59 PM PST

I think I need to reinstall Calibri on my Windows 8 machine. It seems to have disappeared after I uninstalled the beta version of Office 2013 and installed the RTM version of Office 2013. According to the Control Panel/Appearance and Personalization/Fonts/Calibri, I now only have Calibri Light and Calibri Light Italic installed.

 

In Word, the Font box displays "Calibri (Body)" as the default font for the Normal style, but in fact Times New Roman seems to be used as the default font instead. Also, "Calibri" does not appear in the "All Fonts" section of the Font list. I only see "Calibri Light." This is what I would expect to see if Calibri was not installed on my computer.

 

Am I correct that I need to reinstall Calibri? If so, where can I get a copy of Calibri and its variations to install on my Windows 8 computer? The Microsoft site sends me into an endless loop with information about the font, but with no options for downloading it that don't involve paying a lot of money.

 

Thanks for any help you can offer.

HowTo Open Word Or Excel Without New Doc (or spreadsheet)

Posted: 02 Dec 2012 02:30 PM PST

In an older version of Excel and Word there was a way to get them to open without the blank document or spreadsheet.  I can't remember where the option was located, but it there was a file location where at the end you added (space)/e or something ... There was a different letter after the / in the other program ... Sorry to be so vague, but that's all I remember and the computer that had this version of Word and Excel finally died and I've upgraded to Windows 7.

When I hit the Open button in Word to go to my Documents, and thence into my folders, then files, it often opens immediately in a folder from where I have last opened a file.

Color of track changes in Word 2013

Posted: 01 Dec 2012 07:00 PM PST

I just downloaded the Microsoft Office Professional 2013.  In trying Word 2013, I found two problems with the "track changes" function.  First, I had to save my word file in a "new format" in order for this to work.  Second, the color of the changes was the same as the original (which means I can't see it).  I tried to change the color - but was unsuccessful.  If I open the "track changes" document in Word 2010, it shows those changes in red.  Is this a "trial" issue - i.e., just a feature not yet installed, or ???

avery app doesn't work

Posted: 01 Dec 2012 05:02 AM PST

I had problems with Word in Office Preview 365 Home Premium and uninstalled it.
Apparently, on the 18th of November I had tried to install the Avery App into Word 2013 following the instructions to the letter. I am trying to install it again into the new Office 365 and when I get into Word > Insert > Apps for Office > See all > Select the Avery App > I'm then taken to the interned where I can click Add > which takes me right back to the instruction screen that shows how to add it from word. I'm never given the opportunity to "insert" after clicking on the Avery App in Word, it just goes right to the internet.
If I click on manage my apps, on the internet I shows I already have it installed.
How can I get rid of this (since it is not installed) and get the proper instructions/method to install it. I've tried this over and over again and it just doesn't work.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you

How to remove phantom pages in a numbered document

Posted: 30 Nov 2012 06:51 AM PST

I have written a book and submitted to Amazon's printing service.  I received a hard copy proof and, stupidly, tried to make one more change - to remove page numbers from blank, even-numbered pages preceeding a new chapter.  I succeeded.  However, upon re-submission, I am told I have two additional blank pages following the first one and, indeed, their proof shows the two added pages, also completely blank with no numbers.

I am unable to remove the two pages that I can't see in my document.  I have fooled around with section breaks til I'm blue in the face.  Any suggestions?

After looking up the issues that I had with Word -I went  onto Microsoft webpage.

 

I did not do a fix manually.

 

I used the search - word could not create the work file - check the temp environment variable.

 

I did the downloading of the automatic fix it so I could operate my documents that I had of Microsoft Word 2007.

 

I went back to open my documents - lost all autorecovery documents that I had. The history has gone.

 

I have tried opening documents - they only came up as read only - I get the message that they are open in another instance of Word.

 

This is the fix it that I used - Microsoft Fix it 50599.

 

If some one that can assist me as I have lost some very large documents. All started with a message on word that the normal template would change and I just said yes without thinking. Then I start getting the message that check temp environment variable.

 

Thank you

You can use wildcarding in the user search.

For example, you want to assign to John Smith - you would enter *john in the

Advice on using a combination of footnotes and endnotes in a single document.

Posted: 29 Nov 2012 03:51 PM PST

I've written a 14 chapter, 150,000 word book using Word 2010. It's in a single file. To meet the publishers house rules, I will have to change the way I have used footnotes and references (they don't like the Harvard system).

I need explanatory comments to be in footnotes at the bottom of each page,  starting from a or i  at the start of each chapter.

I need references to be in endnotes, all at the end of the book, but numbered from 1 for each chapter.

Is that possible? If so how? So far I have not found a way to do it. I can have either all footnotes or all endnotes without difficulty but having both footnotes and endnotes, numbered differently, has proved beyond me (or perhaps beyond Word 2010). 

Regards

keep getting "QUOTE" "HYPERLINK" when opening a file?!

Posted: 28 Nov 2012 09:54 PM PST

I really love office 2013 because it is just really easy to use.
But there is a problem with it which is really frustrated as I recently find out.

When I am trying to open a word document,
if there is a hyperlink in the original text, it displays as "HYPERLINK------" instead of displaying the text in blue colour (which used to work in this way for older version OFFICE.)
and if there is an math equation in the original text, it displays as "{QUOTE----}" instead of displaying just the equations...

I really want all these to work in the old ways. Can someone please help me out?

Changing hyperlink colors, cannot get any "Hyperlink" to show up when I launch the Style group

Posted: 28 Nov 2012 12:34 PM PST

Hello:

Suddenly, my hyperlinks started to be purple. So, I wanted to change the color back to blue. Had no idea how to do it until I came across Shauna Kelly's page
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/formatting/change-the-colour-or-remove-the-underline-from-hyperlinks-in-microsoft-word.html

"To do either of these things, modify the Hyperlink style.
  1. Display the Modify Style dialog. To do that, in Word 2007 or Word 2010, click in a hyperlink. On the Home tab, click the dialog box launcher in the Styles group. (The dialog box launcher is the tiny tiny arrow at the far bottom right of the Styles group, under the "Change Styles" button.) The Styles pane will appear. In that pane, right-click Hyperlink and choose Modify."


Now, I am not sure what she means by "Click in a hyperlink". Place the cursor there? Ctrl+Click (which is what I need to do to run the hyperlink)?

In any event, I cannot get any "Hyperlink" to show up when I launch the Style group. I see

Two columns w/ different text

Posted: 28 Nov 2012 08:30 AM PST

Hello,

I'm wondering if there is an easy way to do this:

There are about 5 pages of text without columns in a Word document. That text is supposed to go into a column running down the left-hand side of the document. A translation of that text is supposed to run down a column on the right-hand side.

If two columns are implemented, the original text runs along both the left-hand side and the right-hand side. Is there any way to keep it all on one side?

Thanks in advance for insight.

Where are my edits?

Posted: 28 Nov 2012 07:17 AM PST

In Word 2010, with track changs on, I edited (insertions and deletions) and inserted comments. When I opened the document at home, all the edits were gone (undone) but the comments remained. How can I get the edits back? No previous versions show the edits, and a compare against an earlier version doesn't show them, either. Only the current version is in the AutoRecover file location. I was working on (and saving to) a server, not my computer.

italicize macro

Posted: 27 Nov 2012 05:45 AM PST

This is a follow up to a question asked yesterday (11-26-12). Despite diligent attempts, I cannot find my question to post this follow up. I apologize. I am new to this list.

 

I need a macro to find and italicize selected words within a document. The "replace" and "autocorrect" functions are impractical because of the number of words and the frequency needed. I have not been able write my own macro for this.

 

I received the following suggested VBA macro code:

 

Sub ReplaceFromTableList()
Dim oChanges As Document, oDoc As Document
Dim oTable As Table
Dim oRng As Range
Dim rFindText As Range
Dim i As Long
Dim sFname As String
    sFname = "C:Desktop\My Documents\Italics Table.doc"
    Set oDoc = ActiveDocument
    Set oChanges = Documents.Open(FileName:=sFname, Visible:=False)
    Set oTable = oChanges.Tables(1)
    For i = 1 To oTable.Rows.Count
        Set oRng = oDoc.Range
        Set rFindText = oTable.Cell(i, 1).Range
        rFindText.End = rFindText.End - 1
        With oRng.Find
            .ClearFormatting
            .Replacement.ClearFormatting
            Do While .Execute(FindText:=rFindText, _
                              MatchWholeWord:=True, _
                              MatchWildcards:=False, _
                              Forward:=True, _
                              Wrap:=wdFindStop) = True
                oRng.Font.Italic = True
                oRng.Collapse wdCollapseEnd
            Loop
        End With
    Next i
    oChanges.Close wdDoNotSaveChanges
   
    End Sub

 

When using this code, I received a Run Time Error '5273'  with the following line high lighted:

 

Set oChanges = Documents.Open(FileName:=sFname, Visible:=False)

 

I am at a loss as to what to do now. Any suggestions?

 

Thank you.

Limiting a Macro to the Current Page

Posted: 26 Nov 2012 08:09 AM PST

I use a macro to remove prompts from text. The prompt is XXX. I want this macro to remove all prompts from the current page only, not the entire document. This macro, as written, removes all prompts from the entire document. I have been unsuccessful trying to limit it to the current page. How do I modify the code to limit this macro to the current page? The macro is:

 

Sub Eraser()
With ActiveDocument.Content.Find
    .ClearFormatting
    .Replacement.ClearFormatting
    .MatchWholeWord = True
    .Execute FindText:="XXX", _
        ReplaceWith:="", Replace:=wdReplaceAll
       
    
End With

 

End Sub

 

Thank you.
