Microsoft CRM Outlook Client

The following rules apply to Microsoft CRM Sales for Outlook (the Outlook
client).

· The language edition of the Outlook client must match the language
editions of Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional or Microsoft Windows XP
Professional.

· The language edition of the Outlook client must match the language
edition of Microsoft Office (more specifically, Microsoft Outlook).

· The language edition of the Outlook client must match the language
edition of the Microsoft CRM Server application. For example, you cannot use
German Outlook client on a system running English Microsoft CRM Server
application.

Except for Dutch and Danish Outlook client versions (Dutch and Danish
Outlook clients include English MSDE), the language edition of MSDE must
match the language edition of the Outlook client, and in turn, must match
the language version of the Microsoft SQL Server in the system

Server Requirements (Dual Processor?)

Posted: 03 Mar 2004 07:31 AM PST

The install will not fail if you have a singe processor machine.
Assuming typical usage, this should be more than enough to support the
system. I would expect that this config would support many more users
than 10-20 so you should be safe. As with any system thoguh, you
should monitor performance to make sure you are running into problems.

Best free on-line collaboration software that allows tracking changes

Posted: 08 Mar 2013 05:38 PM PST

I am lookng for free on-line software that allows for tracking changes so that both (or all) those working on a project can see all changes that have been made, and allow comments to be entered in the margins, and I would like to know if Microsoft Word 2010's SharePoint is the best program.  I have done a little research on-line and it seems most programs just allow one to see the versions of a document that are automatically saved every thirty minutes or so, and allow comments to be inserted, but do not allow one to track changes.  I have come to the preliminary conclusion that Microsoft Word's SharePoint is the best, but I just wondered if anyone had any ideas on this.

Word 2010 not replacing "-->" with arrow character

Posted: 08 Mar 2013 02:18 PM PST

In previous versions of Word entering "-->" would be automatically replaced with a light arrow pointing right, "<--" with a light arrow pointing left, "==>" with a heavy arrow pointing right, and "<==" with a heavy arrow pointing left. This does not seem to be happening in Word 2010. I can't find any options for this in the Auto-Correct/Auto-Format settings. What do I need to do in order to get this behavior back?

Works: Cannot Paste Object from Clipboard into a Word 2000 Document
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;265930&Product=wrk

SYMPTOMS

When you try to paste an object from the clipboard into a Microsoft Word
2000 document, the selection may be unavailable.

CAUSE

This issue may occur if all of the following conditions are true:
You installed Microsoft Word 2000 from the Microsoft Works Suite 2001 CD-ROM
set.
The object on the clipboard is from a source other than Word 2000.
You started Word 2000 after you copied the object to the clipboard.

Note When you start Word 2000, the clipboard is cleared of all of its
contents.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, open Word 2000 before you copy an object to the
clipboard.

To work around this issue, remove the Word in Works Suite Add-in. To do
this, follow the steps below.

Note If you remove this Add-in, you remove Works Suite Task Launcher's
ability to see any Word 2000 tasks. You will need to do any word processing
functions outside Works Suite Task Launcher.

Uninstall Word in Works Suite Add-in

1. Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Add/Remove Programs.
2. Double-click Microsoft Works Suite Add-in for Microsoft Word.
3. Follow the prompts for the removal.

Hi Di,

Open Microsoft Word before print screen key is used.

You will find copying and pasting anything into Word requires it to be open
before the copy is made.

Works Word processor is also included with Works Suite. Works Word
processor does not have to be open before copy is made.

Because Microsoft Word is included with Works Suite, Works Word processor is
hidden. To use the Works Word processor, search for WksWP.exe , right
click, select Send To, click Desktop (create shortcut). Open Works Word
processor from Desktop.

Hope this helps,
Ken

Charting data in works???

Posted: 13 Sep 2004 03:16 PM PDT

Further to Paul's response,
In 4.5a

In a spreadsheet, have two adjacent lines of data
eg: have I column with six dates,
then alongside in another column enter 6 random numbers.

Mark the block, so the dates and numbers are black,
click ...tools
click....create new chart
remove "first time help"
click the chart you want........finished

You can fumble around after that, to get the matrix you desire
and to get a feel of what happens, each time you close
it will save the chart as "Chart 1, 2 etc, so you may
have to remove some after each try you make.
(It's good fun, charting)

Many thanks Dale.

Do you know whether Project has the facilty on the
timesheet for a resource (user) to enter the ammount of
time there is to complete per task on a timesheet?
Meaning that a task length in a project can shorten or
lengthen depending on the feedback from the resource
(assuming the project manager approves the timesheet).

Where Does Project Server Data Get Stored

Posted: 05 Jun 2004 03:58 PM PDT



----- Ken Popkin wrote: ----

I would like to know the following

1. When I used SQL's Enterprise Manager to look at the underlying databas
I was surprised to find six project server databases labeled ProjectServer
ProjectServer2185, ProjectServer6028, ProjectServer6405, ProjectServer9232
and ProjectServer9880. Why are there six project server databases and whic
one is storing the data

That means, the Project server was installed several times already. (install, uninstall, install, uninstall ...
If you did it in one, you should only have "ProjectServer"

2. What tables are being used to store the data. I looked in MSP_Resource
and MSP_Projects, but didn't find any of my data

It's a relational database. Data for one project are spread in several tables

3. Are there any write-ups that explain the database schema

There's a link somewhere that documents the DB schema in visio format. Haven't found an explanation yet either

4. The reason I am asking is that we may want to write some of our ow
stored procedures to extract data. Is this a good approach or should
stick with the API's that are mentioned in the documentation

It's best to go with API's rather than a direct link to the database

Thanks in advance for your help

change contraint default - Project Professional 2002

Posted: 04 Jun 2004 02:56 PM PDT

The constraint "SNET" being applied automatically is usually a result of
specifying a start date for a task. A basic purpose of Project is to
calculate the task schedule for you, given the project start date, task
durations, and task linkages, and as such you should never, ever input
individual task start and end dates except in those rare circumstances where
you really do intend to have a constraint applied.

Target versus Published

Posted: 04 Jun 2004 10:16 AM PDT

Spiro T --

In the sample DB, the Project Server administrator created an additional
Version called Target, which probably serves as the original "agreed upon"
version of the project before beginning work. The Published version is
always the current production copy of the project. Your Project Server
administrator could create one or more Versions in your own envrionment,
based on the communication and tracking needs of your organization. If no
custom Versions are created, then the only available project Version will be
the Published version. Hope this helps.

Hi Donna,

I don't really understand what you're trying to do :( I don't know what you
mean by getting the number to balance - what number? and balance with what?
You assign a resource to the task to undertake the necessary work to finish
the task - you can't fiddle that - it must have a number of manhours of work
to complete. You can't adjust the number of hours as the work might not be
completed in that time. As to your final comment, if you enter 50 manhours
of work, Project will work out the cost based on how you've set up the
parameters of working time and calendars. Can you be more specific on what
you're trying to achieve and how you are doing it?

Microsoft Word - MS Word : Characters lost in PDF conversion

Microsoft Word - MS Word : Characters lost in PDF conversion

MS Word : Characters lost in PDF conversion

Posted: 08 Mar 2013 03:15 AM PST

MS Word 2010.

I find that underscores are lost in some places in my document when I convert to PDF.

Well the underscores are not actually lost: If I copy the text from the PDF and paste it into Notepad I can see the characters are actually there.

It is pretty easy to reproduce:

Take a blank document and input these lines:

 

Here is an underscore _in some text

Here is an underscore _in some text

Here is an underscore _in some text

Here is no underscore

 

  1. Make sure the font is "Courier New" (size 11). Not sure if the size matters but it certainly matters that the font is "Courier New" if you want to reproduce.
  2. Make sure to color the background as I do. I use one of the "theme colors", called "Dark Blue, Text 2, Lighter 80%" but I do not think it has significance which background color you use.
  3. Make sure to use line spacing : single and line spacing "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style"
  4. Now try to export to PDF using Word's build-in feature for the purpose (i.e. Save As ...).


In the PDF it looks like this:




Here is an underscore  in some text

Here is an underscore  in some text

Here is an underscore _in some text

Here is no underscore




 What is that ?



Pls help.

Permanently change language in Template

Posted: 08 Mar 2013 12:59 AM PST

I am a naturalized American of British origin, and my system language is US English.  

I have a Word template TmplUK which is set to UK English which I use frequently.  

Sometimes I need a US English document, so I use TmplUK  and ctrl-a and select US English from the language tab at the bottom of the screen.  This seems to work fine. 

I realized I should make a clone of that template which is US English.  

I edited the TmplUK template and tried the above method and saved it as TmplUS.  I created a new document using the new template, pasted in some text, and it was correctly in US English.  Then I realized I had made a mistake and deleted all the text I had pasted.  The document reverted to UK English.

How do I set the base language of a template?

Word 2010 Creating TOC out of a multi-level list

Posted: 07 Mar 2013 08:59 PM PST

I have a 50 page word document that is one gigantic multi-level list (all the same list--goes down about 7 levels at it's deepest). I need to create a automated TOC from the list using the first 3 levels however I can't figure out how to do it because TOC's only seem to work off of the "heading" styles. I can't even apply a heading style on a list item because it removes it from the list when it applies the style. Is there any way to create a TOC out of a multi-level list automatically? Maybe a macro can convert it to something word can read but I still can't think of how to do it since the heading styles remove the list item when applied. Anyone have an idea on how to do this?


Thanks for your time.

English (UK) and spellchecker

I have English (UK) as my default language in Office 2013 but the dictionary is by default English (US).  The spellchecker does not highlight any mistakes.  I cannot add any other language, even English (US).  Help please.

How to wrap text inside a custom shape to the borders of that custom shape, not a generic square "text box"?

Posted: 07 Mar 2013 12:20 PM PST

Hi All - a simple (I hope) question. I've drawn a "custom" shape, and added text to this shape. However, it is wrapping according to a "square" text box, not the lines that form my custom shape. How can I make the text wrap according to the shape I have drawn? Currently the text is going outside the lines I've drawn. I couldn't figure out how to upload a picture - so I've tried to creat an example of my issue below below:

 

 

This is what it currently looks like (imagine the dashes/vertical lines are the outline of my shape, and the "x"s are my text) 

 

------------------------------------------------------------

|                                                                           \

|  xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  \ xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

|  xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx \ xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

|  xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx \ xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

|  xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx \ xxxxxxxxxxxx

|                                                                                     \

|                                                                                       \

|                                                                                         \

------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

This is what I want it to look like:

 

-----------------------------------------------------------

|                                                                         \

|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx \ 

|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx \ 

|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  \

|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx \

Is it possible to set the default font for label printing?

Trying to set the default font that is used to print labels - I "see" the correct font in the dialogue box, but that's not what ends up being printed.
Thanks

When doing invoicing or example, I want to give it a number that is sequential but I want to automate this not for me to track it with a register.

incorrect 'received' time on interoffice mail

Posted: 05 Aug 2004 10:02 AM PDT

Check the time zone on the affected workstation. The time may show correctly, but if the time zone is off you can have mail arriving before it was sent or hours later.

Nope, ActiveSync doesn't support public folders. Pocket Lookout should,
though. http://www.vonkensoftware.com/lookout/

Checking OWA availability

Posted: 04 Aug 2004 04:50 PM PDT

OWA will authenticate but never serve the page. All IIS services appear up
but they hang upon restart so I assume a process is hung.

I guess if there was a utility that could login, pull a page, then logout,
this would do the trick, unless there is a better way.

OWA-IIS Settings Lost After Reboot

Posted: 02 Aug 2004 01:52 PM PDT

If you are changing the authentication setting, for the Exchange virtual
directory, in the IIS console, then the reason you are seeing it get
overwritten is because Active Directory is overwriting the IIS Metabase
with what it has for the authentication settings. In order for the back
slash (\) to not get overwritten, you must change the Exchange virtual
directory's authentication settings(& the public virtual directory's)
authentication settings through the Exchange System Manager console.

Org name -- Administrative Group -- <name of administrative group> --
Servers -- <server name> -- Protocols -- HTTP -- Exchange Virtual Server --
<properties of the Exchange directory> -- Access tab -- Authentication
button.

When you changed the authentication settings, in ESM, the changes are
written to Active Directory, which then overwrites what is in the IIS
Metabase.
