Microsoft Word - Numbers won't appear when typed

Microsoft Word - Numbers won't appear when typed

Numbers won't appear when typed

Posted: 10 Jun 2013 09:55 AM PDT

I'm using MS Word 2010.  When I type letters they show up just fine.  When I type numbers in the body of the work they do not appear.  The cursor does move (so the keyboard is functioning).  When I delete the invisible numbers and switch to a different "style" or type in BOLD font the numbers will appear.  Any ideas how to fix this?

How do I add an Underline with VBA code

Posted: 10 Jun 2013 07:41 AM PDT

I am lloking for some help in underlining some words in my header. The code below is waht I have so far except the underlining. The bolded and underlined words in my code need to be underlined with VBA. Any help would be great.

 

Sub AddHeadfoot()
    Dim oHF As HeaderFooter
    Dim oSection As Section
    For Each oSection In ActiveDocument.Sections
        For Each off In oSection.Headers
            off.Range.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = Word.WdParagraphAlignment.wdAlignParagraphCenter
            off.Range.Text = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" + vbCrLf + "XXXXXX XXX XXXXX XXXXXX"
            off.Range.Font.Size = 12
            off.Range.Font.Bold = wdToggle
        Next
        For Each off In oSection.Footers
            off.Range.ParagraphFormat.Alignment = Word.WdParagraphAlignment.wdAlignParagraphLeft
            off.Range.Text = "XXXXXXXXX  D12444-XXXXX" + vbTab + vbTab + "XX-XX-XX" + vbCrLf + vbTab + vbTab + "Page" + vbCrLf + vbTab + vbTab + "XXX X DATE X"
            off.Range.Font.Size = 10

i want to define auto-numbering in my CAPTIONS to use the number of the preceding heading style

Posted: 10 Jun 2013 07:13 AM PDT

i need to follow a strange numbering practice for some documents I'm working on. I'd like to be able to rely on auto-numbering, but haven't figured out how to do it for this req'mt. I have a numbered para document with figures. Instead of numbering the figures sequentially as the default Word "Caption" does (i.e., Figure 1, Figure 2, etc) the client wants the figs numbered according to the preceding para no. like this:

9.1 blah, blah, blah iaw w/ figure 9.1-1

==insert figure here==
Figure 9.1-1

9.2 blah, blah, blah

   9.2.1 blah, blah, blah iaw figure 9.2.1-1 and figure 9.2.1-2

       ==insert figure here==
Figure 9.2.1-1

==insert figure here==
Figure 9.2.1-2

Hopefully, you can see my problem. 9.x = Heading 2, 9.x.x = Heading 3. If it was just a matter of using figures at one heading I might use a Style Ref code and a "-[SEQ?]" but I'm not sure how to reset the SEQ code at the next use of the target Style Ref. However, since I have figures at Heading 2 and Heading 3, I don't think i can use the Style Ref anyway. I've been trying (unsuccessfully) to get the client to use a more reasonable numbering system, but they insist on this with the result that figures and x-refs to figures are manually entered, then become out-of-sync on edits. Any ideas?

Customer Fill In Sections

I am creating a form for work and I want to be able to have the customer fill out the form on one of our Windows 8 tablets. I want to be able to have the form say "First Name" and then when the customer clicks it they can type in their name.

I know you can do this in adobe and create it as PDF, but I'd much rather have it in word.

Font missing in Office 2013

I previously work with Microsoft Word 2010 in font of "Velvenda Cooler", however, the font was found missing after transferred to Office 2013, the work has changed and i can't continue my work without the previous font installed.

Is there anyway i can install this font in Office 2013?

Selecting all text in Edit Hyperlink box

Posted: 09 Jun 2013 11:31 AM PDT

I frequently want to rename a hyperlink using the Edit Hyperlink pop-up box in Word.  First step is to select the entire old name in the "Test to Display" box, but this is difficult since the margin for error in placing the cursor for either select all by back right arrow or for dragging across the existing text is VERY small and hard to find.  Is there a more robust, ie easier, way to select all the text in the Test to Display box so that I can do a type over and replace? 

office 2010 word copy problems

Posted: 08 Jun 2013 06:59 PM PDT

My windows 8 computer recently corrupts documents that I copy from the internet to a word 2010 document.  It worked ok at first, but now it copies the document over correctly, but when I scroll down, the pages separate, repeat lines, move over to the side, and generally are corrupted.  This happens with all documents, so is not just a problem with a specific site.

using shortcuts: ctrl + u/i/b

Posted: 07 Jun 2013 08:21 AM PDT

using shortcuts for bold, italic and underlining a word. 

right now when I press ctrl + u/i/b, it only highlights the corresponding button(s) on the toolbar in word. it does no longer actually make the word I have clicked on e.g. bold (with ctrl + b). I have to highlight the word first now. even though before  I could also just "click" on a word, without highlighting it and ctrl + u would underline the word, not only highlight the button.

thanks for any help!

Word 2010 - Template prompts ASK Field issues

Posted: 07 Jun 2013 07:36 AM PDT

Hi

I have created a Word 2010 Macro Enabled Template with "Ask Fields" and "Ref Fields" so the user is prompted to fill these in once the document is opened. In the template when you open it by right clicking and selecting "Open" the following macro runs:

Sub autoopen()

ActiveDocument.Fields.Update

End Sub

I have built in some auto text capabilities to this template. However when I open a new document from the template by clicking and selecting "New" when you right click the template or by double clicking it the macro isn't transferred and doesn't run.

Is there a way to make the Update fields macro run when a new document is created from the template?

Many Thanks in advance

How to change maximum display names in a citation

Posted: 07 Jun 2013 03:36 AM PDT

Hi there,

I use the APA 6 style in Word 2013. I read that when you use 3,4 or 5 authors. The first time you citate it should show all the names, and in the citations following it should show only the first name followed by et al. But Word doesn't do that. It just shows them all, always. 

How do I change that? I read something that you can change some script somewhere? But I couldn't find out how to do that. 

Thanks

How do you regulate your Exchange domain?

Posted: 24 Sep 2004 08:21 AM PDT

I like what Mark says. Technically, he is correct in what to do first.
However, politically, I disagree on what to do first.

You don't want to come in and make enemies. Trust me on that.

The first thing that I would do is discuss, with your management, the option
of cutting down SPAM first. The users will be happy about that. Once the
user environment is happy...

Propose to them two options (note: I don't know the specifics of your
organization, so this is generic):

Option 1) Propose a purchase of a new server with plenty of disk. Note
that a rule of thumb that I use is ~150 people per spindle, dependent upon
utilization...more folks if I am using Outlook 2003 Cached Exchange Mode. I
generally use Windows 2000/2003 standard server and Exchange Server
2000/2003 Enterprise edition. Clustered environments are different.

Option 2) In lieu of this, propose moving some of the largest user's
information to .pst files and implement quotas. Remind management that the
loss of the user's local system could result in the loss of the .pst file if
it is stored on the system. Note that the upper limit of .pst files may be
1.85GB of 2.00GB on older versions (pre-2003) of Outlook.

That way you are leaving it up to management to make the decision on what to
do and you do not seem like the bad guy...and you are providing risk
mitigation information. They will talk to the managers and users, most
likely.

Stories:
I had a very large client in Georgia that would rather purchase more SAN
space than implement quotas for their users. We got a few new servers and a
nice beefy SAN.

On the flipside, I had a client in Virginia that did not want to purchase a
new server or software. They opted to implement quotas and their
management sent an e-mail regarding this. Obviously, there were exceptions
to the rule.

Either way, it was management's decision and I did not seem like the bad
guy.

I'm aware of this setting. I confirmed that it's not enabled.
 

The user can work in offline mode and the message will not open. The minute
he connects to the Exchange server, it will change to show as opened and
read.
We've also tested this by using Outlook WebAccess. The same thing will
occur. Also, regardless of which computer he uses to connect to Exchange,
the same issue occurs so I know that it's not computer specific.

Trying to deploy SP1 for Office 2003?!?

Posted: 24 Aug 2004 10:48 AM PDT

If you mean SMS Administration point, no. I already have an MST for my MSI
that has the product key in there. Now all I am trying to do is patch the
core office installation I have.

Basically I have the CD copied to a directory and an MST applied to the MSI
inside the AD GPO that deploys Office, the only way to deploy SP1 (I assume)
via this method is to now patch my Office 2003 installation.

Which, when I try to do that, it asks for a Product Key...

Someone must be able to answer this, I am not the only one deploying Office
via this method I think I can be at least assured of that.

Office 2003 won't un/re-install, repair, update

Posted: 24 Aug 2004 03:48 AM PDT

Hi,

Based on the article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;826511&Product=off20
03 , please try the following:

1. Select Start > Run; type %TEMP%; in the resulting window, you can find
log files for Office 2003 installation; Open the file: Microsoft Office
2003 Setup(####)_Task(0002).txt where the #### characters in the log file
names are numbers that start with 0001. They increment by one each time
that you run Setup. Therefore, the log file that has the highest number is
the log file for the most recent time that you ran Setup.

2. Reply to this posting with the data present in the above said file.

Office de-activation?

Posted: 23 Aug 2004 02:43 AM PDT

I did

re install the original - format - if this is really
necessary and use phone to reactivate - of course it is re
useable

The advice here is top get an operational basic office and
an operational pro office. If the systems are only setup to
OS and office format to get back to original, if you want to
be really pedantic replace the HD in the first machine and
re activate office using the telephone.

Build another machine around the hard drive from the first
machine and install pro, re activate using the telephone if
necessary.

This person is trying to recover from an error, they have
done nothing illegal and will not if they want to be a
lateral,

A bit of thinking yourself might help

Deploying Office 2003

Posted: 19 Aug 2004 04:04 PM PDT

The vast majority of the pre-existing versions of Office
were installed manually, can the custom maintenance wizard
run against those installations? The current installations
are also any of three different versions of Office from 97
through to XP, can I set up something to test for version
and the run the appropriate maintenance wizard? Can these
two things be set up as part of the new install of Office
2003 so they are executed before the new version is
installed?

I was hoping that maybe there was a way that I could trick
the removal wizard into removing everything to do with
previous versions of Office so that it can all happen as
part of the new install.

Btw, the new installs are going to be deployed using Group
Policy, if that helps.

Strange Cursor When Using Word

My cursor when using Word has suddenly become a blue, rotating (clockwise), blinking circle instead of the customary vertical, black, blinking line.  This only happens in Word and continues no matter what page I move to while using Word.  I associate the rotating circle with the computer searching for something, a web page, for example.  I do not think the rotating circle in Word, as a cursor, is normal.  Can anyone explain how to solve this issue?

But how do I create an actual degree sign? I use that character a lot, and except for a nonbreaking space I don't see it offered anywhere. In particular, I would like to program my keyboard to use Ctrl+D to insert a degree sign.

Underlining of formatting.

Posted: 08 Jun 2013 07:38 AM PDT

I have to open many documents in Word 2010 that were created in earlier versions. Word underlines most of the text in blue, and asks me if I'd like to make the formatting consistent with Normal, or to replace direct formatting with some predefined style. Is there a way to tell Word not to check this, and not to underline anything in blue? It is extremely annoying to have to click "ignore rule" several times in every document I open--and what's more annoying, it checks it every time I open the document, even if I've saved after telling it to ignore the rule. I assume there must be some easy answer, but it has not been easy to find.

Thanks much.

WORD 2003 Page Set-up problem

Posted: 08 Jun 2013 04:44 AM PDT

In WORD 2003 the cursor is at the very top of the blank page.

I opened "Page Set-up" and the top margin setting is, as it should be, 1".

If I open the header, and type a dot,

when I close the Page Set-up the proper top margin is in effect.

Removing partial duplicate lines in Word

Posted: 07 Jun 2013 06:48 PM PDT

I have reports with duplicate names, and I have a macro that can remove the duplicates.

 

My problem is that sometime the duplicate names are not removed because of sometime there is metadata that is not the same from one duplicate to the next.

 

It looks like this

 

4556           Smith, Bob

4556           Smith, Bob

4556           Smith, Bob

7777           Smith, Bob

8877           Smith, Bob

 

I can get to

 

4556           Smith, Bob

7777           Smith, Bob

8877           Smith, Bob

 

My problem is that I need to keep at least one line without taking the metadata out of that one line because i don't have full control over these reports so i can't just delete all the metadata.

 

Disclosure: The actual macro I use is some mighty  fine code written by someone other than myself. I

footer help

Posted: 07 Jun 2013 12:05 PM PDT

I need to "chain" many patient files into one long document. Each one has a footer which would have a new name, patient #, and DOB, plus a new practitioner name. Each new footer also needs to start numbering with Page 1 of x (I did learn how to put that coding in).

When I create my document and add a new footer, it changes the name and other text of the footer from the first file. How can I keep them separate and restart page numbers with each new client?

Also on footers: the Help section says I can double-click in the footer area to edit it, but that's not working. How can I make it work, or how can I more easily edit the footer than going through all the menu levels in the ribbon?

Thanks!

How can I custom reinstall Office 2003 SBE?

Posted: 19 Aug 2004 06:58 PM PDT

Hi Greg,

To 'reinstall' Office with different settings you'd
need to first uninstall it then restart the PC then install
using the 'custom' installation choice, but, if your copy
of MS Office System 2003 is running satisfactorily then
when you are in Add/Remove Programs and select the [Change]
button, you can choose the Add or Remove Features choice
to take you to the listing of all features.

Once there, if you choose the top 'sugar cube' and set it
to 'run all from my computer' you can add any missing features
when that is accomplished, or you can choose differing levels
of the feature tree and set individual features or groups of
features to run from your computer or to run on 1st use or
to not available (don't install that feature).

Hello!

I want to re-install Office 2003 SBE OEM. When I run the CD, it gives me
three choices: Add or Remove Features, Reinstall or Repair, or Uninstall. If
I choose Reinstall, I do not get the chance to choose what features I want.

Basically, I want to reinstall, but I want to make sure it is a full
installation of Word and Excel, including everything they offer.

Is there a command-line switch I can use to force a custom reinstall?

Thank you for helping!

Parallel installation of Office 97 and Office 2000 on a W2k

Posted: 18 Aug 2004 04:08 AM PDT

Hi Matt,

My PC has versions of Office going back to DOS ones <g>

Office 97 uses the older AcmeSetup for installation and
MS Office 2000 and higher uses MS Windows Installer (MSI)
When you switch to an Office 97 app (can't have multiple
Excel copies) the installer resets registry entries to make
that version current, but you don't see any dialogs to advise
you of that. When you next run a newer version you will see
an 'Installer preparing to run dialog' as that version switches
things back so that it can run correctly. In general, for the
scenario you outline, things should be okay for support purposes
although there could be some issues if you're using add-ins
in the two versions. Also, if you're trying to replicate
a specific error condition, then you may not see it in a mixed
environment (i.e. you may have a 'fixed'(updated) common DLL
in play, for example).

You may want to look at using MS Virtual PC setups with the
different versions of Office. There's a 45 day trial copy
available.

Hi!
Thanks for your reply and tip!

I did a number of searches on support.microsoft.com but
missed that one! Very informative.

May I ask if your own experience is that there indeed are
no problems in real life than? Would you say that the
article cover everything essential?

The reason for the parallel installation is that we need
to give user support (mainly less complicated telephone
support) to users with different Excel versions.
The idea is that the operator should have the exact same
menus and dialogues as the caller.


Thanks again.

Office 2K install runs every time a user logs in

Posted: 18 Aug 2004 02:03 AM PDT

Thanks for your help.

This is a school so all users have roaming profiles, and don't have a local
status: group assignment as far as I understand. The profiles are petty much
locked down, but I suppose the only problem is that the office install isn't
saved once it has run once.

I read somewhere once about giving permissions to something on the local PC
to all users, if that jogs anyones memory.

I also suspect the install maybe needed some switches to enable office to
run in this environment/ manner

Posted: 17 Aug 2004 04:11 AM PDT

Hi, Ron. What version of Winfax Pro do you have? Word 2002 requires
Winfax Pro 10.02 or later. I'm not sure what version works with Word
2003. In any case, you might be better off uninstalling the Winfax
add-in for Word, because many users experience startup problems when the
Winfax add-in is installed.

Administrative install with Office 2k3 Professional ?

Posted: 17 Aug 2004 02:15 AM PDT

Hi Chris. I thought that would be the case. I might just check with
support as to what should be possible with Action Pack subscriptions becuase
rolling out office to workstations regularly without being able to use an
automated custom install is a bit of a nuisance.

Did you contact a support department specifc to Action Pack, or just general
support ? (which email address did you use)

Install Office97 Upgrade without previous version

Posted: 16 Aug 2004 05:18 PM PDT

Hi, Stephen Mackey. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=158069
"OFF97: Products That Qualify for the Office Upgrade" for a list of
products that qualify you to upgrade to Office 97. Just remember that
"all versions" in this article only means those versions that pre-date
Office 97. You might be able to pick up one of these products on ebay
for just a few dollars.

Installing Microsoft Office 97 on Windows 2000 Professional

Posted: 16 Aug 2004 02:46 PM PDT

I got it to run fine.

But I must note that I no longer use Office 97 as I installed Office 2003.


You might want to try setting up Compatibility Mode for Windows 2000 and
then enabling it on each individual Shortcut to an Office 97 Application.


To setup Compatibility Mode for Windows 2000, take a look at the following
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article:
279792 - How To Enable Application Compatibility-Mode Technology in Windows
2000 SP2 and SP3
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;279792



If that fails to work, go out and purchase Office 2000, Office XP, or Office
2003.

Please be a bit more specific. Do you mean installations or users as in
user accounts?

A friend of mine did that. He came over here had his laptop nicked, so got a
second hand laptop whilst here, the only thing you have to remember is your
dictionaries and keyboard settings are different as well as standard paper
size - we work on A4.
The PAL settings are just broadcast TV settings

Office 2003 Setup /m switch

Posted: 13 Aug 2004 07:49 AM PDT

I think I found it. To use the /m switch with the setup wrapper (that in
turn passes it to msiexec where it is used), you must have ISMIF32.DLL
located somewhere in the path. See msiexec command line options:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/msi/setup/command_line_options.asp?frame=true

It is very possible that my test PC at work doesn't have the adv client on
it yet (I was testing from my CD installation, not an SMS push) or it has
issues.

Anyway these appear to be the requirements for using the /M switch:

1) ISMIF32.DLL present (normally there from an SMS client install, but
comes with some dev products like Visual Studio 6.0)

2) No extension (i.e. .MIF) should be supplied

3) Should not include path (mif will always be placed in %systemroot%)

4) Name specified must be 8 characters or less


I know I met 2-4, but I bet ISMIF32.DLL not being in the path is the
problem.

Thanks,
Frank
