retriving a lost product key for MS word 2010

Posted: 19 Jun 2013 06:51 AM PDT

I am trying to locate my Product Key for MS Word that I bought years ago.  I do not have my confirmation email or at least I can't find it.  Please contact me at: *** Email address is removed for privacy *** or call me at (510) 926-2681.  Also, if possible email me the support phone number so I can call you (support) directly.

Thanks.

Linked Text Boxes

Posted: 19 Jun 2013 03:07 AM PDT

Hi All, I'm attempting to create document templates with Linked text boxes. My problem is that the text in the primary text box does not  appear in the linked text box. However when when I check for the text in the linked text box's 'Text Forrmating Tools' the text is apparent. How can I fix it?

Acute accents in Word 2010

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 08:17 PM PDT

I've recently learned how to get an acute e, a, or o using the alt key and several numpad keys consecutively. Now I want to be able to create a u with the acute accent. What keystroke do I need to use?

Changes name on redlines when I save

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 11:06 AM PDT

I am redlined documents in MS Word 2010.  These are legal documents so there are multiple revisions that are being tracked.  When I am working on it, my redlines show up in a unique color and are labeled in the reviewing pane with my name as I have my name in the general options for author.  However, as soon as I hit save, all my changes suddenly turn to red and are labeled as "author".  This is a big problem because then we can't see which reviewer made which changes.  I think it has something to do with compatibility or maybe protected view but couldn't find any setting that explained it.  Can you tell me how to stop this from happening and, if it happens, is there a way to recover my redlines or go back in and change them from author back to my name without having to redo my work?

 

Word uses all my CPU and pulsing spinning circle replaces the cursor

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 03:26 AM PDT

When I open any Word document (using Word 2007), the normal line cursor is replaced by the spinning circle you usually get when opening a document. The circle also pulses rapidly and continuously. The document uses 100% of my computer's CPU, even if it's a blank document. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Office 2007. This didn't work. I also had problems installing Office 2007 SP3 for a while, but I've managed to do so now, and that has made no difference.


I've occasionally had similar problems with Excel, but most of the time that works. Powerpoint is fine. I've had the problem since towards the end of 2012 and have been working around it by using another word-processing package (Kingsoft Writer).

problem text direction changing

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 02:49 AM PDT

Dear Ryno,

no, you are not the only idiiot to use this stuff. There are many like
you who struggle to get mail merge with numbers and formulas working.
the sad fact is that MS crippled all versions since Works 4.5a.

The workaround is simple: make your own intermediate file between the
Works database and your word processor. Put field names in your first
record and save the database twice: once for use and once as an
intermediate file, in csv format. Use the latter one for your merge. You
can use Word or Works' wordprocessor. In the latter click on the rule
and you will get a left tab. Click twice on it and you can make it a
decimal tab.

Erik.

How do I keep Works from loading at startup?

Posted: 25 Dec 2004 07:05 AM PST

Hi ggull,

Re: MoneyAgent

When Money Express is activated, MoneyAgent appears in the msconfig 'startup
items' tab.

To deactivate and remove from msconfig 'startup items' tab. Right click "M"
(Money Express) on the task bar, should be near the clock on the task bar.
In the popup click Exit Money Express, the next popup offers yes/no if you
want Money Express to run the next time you start Windows , click No.

Another way to turn off Money Express is to open Microsoft Money. click
Tools on its menu bar, click Options, select Bills and Deposits tab, uncheck
"Use Money Express", click OK.

Nice site, but no specific answers there that I found.
To be honest, I can't recall now if I turned those off in msconfig because
there was some task left lurking, or just to save time at startup.
But by coincidence, I ran across the following site on another newsgroup:

http://castlecops.com/StartupList.html

which had the four items I listed. All were deemed "not necessary", and for
one there was a hint on how to get rid of it.

Microsoft Works Portfolio -- open Portfolio from the Task Launcher /
Programs. Click the "Tasks" bar in Portfolio, then "Options". There is a
box to uncheck, "Load Portfolio every time you start the computer".

But for the following, no mention of how to get them out of the startup item
list:

Microsoft Works Update Detection
MoneyAgent
WorksFUD -- "A marketing program for MS Works"

Any ideas on these? especially FUD?
(and where does it lie in the progression from FU to FUBAR?)

Opening a *.WDB file without MS Works?

Posted: 21 Dec 2004 10:43 AM PST

David I had that exact same problem with my daughter who does not have Works
and this is how I handled it.

Go to www.acrosoftware.com and d/l the free program CutePDF.

Execute program. It will in short be a "printer" program. In Works when you
create report and then go to print it, you will be given option as to the
printer you want. Choose the CutePDF printer and follow prompts. In short it
creates a PDF file of the report. You will be able to print out report and
in your case you can send it to who you want. When the recipient gets PDF
attachment they should be able to read it and also print it.

Good Luck

Database Backup Copy (.BDB)

Posted: 16 Dec 2004 11:07 AM PST

Thanks, Thomas. Not only is the database the only Works component
that hasn't been upgraded in the last 4 versions, but now they are
removing features.

I agree that the database backup copy does not work well as a backup
(especially since I regularly hit Save during an editing session and
overwrite the backup copy), but it does excel as an "undo" copy.
Since Works database only has one level of undo, I occasionally refer
to it to correct editing errors.

FWIW, I try to backup all important documents as well as the registry
and other settings once a week to DVD+RW with Backup MyPC (formerly
Backup Exec by Veritas).

A file ending with ".wdb" is a Database file, needs to be opened with Works
Database Program. Microsoft Works Database Program is part of Works and
should be on your computer.

Open your Works Database Program then click File on it's menu bar, click
Open. In the Open dialog popup screen find your saved file and click Open.

If the file opens okay, post back, we need to talk about file association.

Strikethrough Effect Corrupts Works 7.0 Word Processor Files?

Posted: 11 Dec 2004 08:11 PM PST


To Kevin, and All:

It's an understatement to say this is ** embarrassing **, but so it is. I
wondered why Kevin was "disclosing" his address here in a news group, where
it could be "harvested" by "mail-gathering bots," but I was too preoccupied
(or, more likely, STOOPIT) to consider that the characters "ExtraWords" had
been inserted into his correct address to "foil" such "bots." I also was
too stupid to notice his "old" address, from two years ago, in my records of
our correspondence about an earlier problem, was identical to his "new"
address, once "ExtraWords" were removed. I just "assumed" he'd found a new
ISP after two years, as most of us have done, and that his address had
changed.

Extra... Words... hmmm...

I finally caught on, and my mail, ** without ** the "extra words," left for
Wales a few minutes ago.

Kevin, now you know you're leading at least one IMBECILE "towards the
light." I hope you find encouragement in the evidence that even I can
"catch on." (This certainly does explain how I could find it so difficult
to operate a simple word processor, doesn't it? "Extra Words"... Hmmm...)

Can't wrap text in footer

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 09:41 AM PDT

Hi,
I have a logo I need to insert into a footer and I need to have text wrap around it. I've tried setting the text wrap properties of the graphic but nothing is working, the text goes in front of the graphic and doesn't wrap no matter what setting I choose. I also tried putting the graphic (a simple .png) in a table and set the table properties to wrap text around the table, but that doesn't work either.

Text wrapping will work in the body of the document, just not in the footer for some reason.

I finally did a clumsy workaround where I inserted both the text and graphic in a table into the footer, and that worked to some extent, but why wouldn't things wrap normally in the first place? Is a puzzlement.

How to call a Sub with parameters

Posted: 18 Jun 2013 01:28 AM PDT

Hello, I am working ni Word 2013 and now try to go passed the spagetti programing. I would like to call a Sub and also send in some parameters.

 

I call the Sub like this:

 

WriteTextToBookmark ActiveDocument, "Company6"

 

And the Sub looks like this, I have moved the dimensions to under Option Explicit in the beginning:

 

Sub WriteTextToBookmark(doc As Word.Document, bkmName As String, newText As String)
  
  ' Dim rng As Word.Range
   ' Dim doc As Document
    Set doc = ActiveDocument

If UserForm2.TextBox1.Text = "" Then
    Set rng = doc.Bookmarks(bkmName).Range
    rng.Text = ""
    doc.Bookmarks.Add bkmName, rng

Else
   If UserForm2.TextBox1.Text <> "" Then
     Set rng = doc.Bookmarks(bkmName).Range
     rng.Text = UserForm2.TextBox1.Value
     doc.Bookmarks.Add bkmName, rng
   End If
End If
 End Sub

 

I have copied this from some other support answer and modified it with for example UserForm2.TextBos1.Value.

 

 

I get an error message when calling the Sub. Do I put the parameters wrongly? I have tried without "" around my bookmark name.

 

Grateful for an answer on this problem.

Table of Contents MS Word 2010

Posted: 17 Jun 2013 04:33 PM PDT

Hi Microsoft Community,

I wanted to share a problem that I currently have with MS word 2010 regarding table of contents.

The issue I'm facing is that when I update my table of contents using References > update table, it adds the picture on a particular page to the table of contents.

It also adds the table of contents page to the contents table index.

Also note that I've completed at least 12 other word documents using the table of contents update method mentioned and it didn't have a problem.

How can this problem be solved?

Thanks.

Why does Word create empty pages on my document?

Posted: 17 Jun 2013 12:42 PM PDT

I'm typing a document that has two columns of bulleted information. The problem is even though all the information only takes up a page there are two more empty pages after the end of my work. At first I though it was empty space and I tried to delete it and every time I pressed delete it would take away a character from the end of the first page. That is so weird! How can I have two pages that I did NOT put there and I can't get rid of them? I thought, "Ok, I'll just copy the information onto a new document"-same thing. Then I tried to save it as a PDF and even the PDF file has the two extra pages.

Posted: 17 Jun 2013 11:42 AM PDT

Someone hacked into my computer. They said they were from Microsoft, and that my computer was getting ready to crash. I believed them at first and gave them remote access to my computer. When I became suspicious and wouldn't buy what they were selling, my computer did crash. I lost everything, and had to start all over as if my computer was a new computer. Microsoft Word(can't remember which one) was installed on my computer, but the crash wiped out everything that was previously on my computer.  I am not a computer whiz, so I am at a loss as to what I should do to regain my Microsoft Word without having to install a new one that I have to pay for again. Please help!!!!

Paragraph that flows with an automatic indentation on the next page

Posted: 14 Jun 2013 07:44 PM PDT

I have Windows 7 and am using Word 2010.  I am working on a document that contains footnotes.  One of my long paragraphs that flows to the next page, automatically indents the first line on that next page.  My document is about 13 pages long and this does not happen with the other long paragraphs that flows to the next page.  Only this one paragraph.  I have check my formatting, tabs, indentations, and used backspace.  Now it looks right on the screen, but not when I print the first line is still indented. 

The actual Word document opens in the corner in a small window

Posted: 13 Jun 2013 10:55 PM PDT

When I open a new Word Document, the actual document in white, opens in a small window at the top left corner. Attached is a snapshot to explain the issue better. How do I resole this and get the documents to open in normal mode. (This happens only with MS Word).

Outlook 2003 Desktop Icon

Posted: 12 Sep 2004 08:40 AM PDT

And I just found a slew of these type posts in microsoft.public.outlook
(makes since) going back to early last year:

Odd, though you were around then. :-) Maybe you just started using Office
2003. Anyway yes to your question of a custom transform and yes it is set to
install the desktop icon. It created it on the 150 test Windows 2000 PC, but
not the 125 test XP PCs due to logo compliance they say. 80 of those 125
users emailed me asking for the "real" (brings up mail setup when you right
click and select properties) old Outlook icon back and not some chessy
shortcut. Despite the fact we sent out an advanced notic that it would not
be there and how they could grab the one from the start menu (if using
XP-style theme). They never read such emails. Anyway for the 8000 we will be
copy the one that gets pinned to the start menu.

Ok I went and did that today - I bought a retail copy, uninstalled the trial
version, installed the retail copy...and there was no change at all! I
wasn't prompted to activate the product during the setup process, and the
editing and activation issues still remain. Hmmmph. I suspect there is
something in the registry which wasn't deleted in the uninstall process, and
it still thinks it is a trial version. I have submitted a query to the
Microsoft Assisted Support site, so hopefully they will find a solution.

Office 03 Install over XP

I did the same thing-upgraded to office 2003 from xp. You
can just install 03, no need to uninstall xp. All your

I could not find a way to remove it following your advice but you did put me
on the right track. I use Word to edit my email messages and realized that
the toolbar addition was there also. I went into Tools > Customize > Command
and had the option to reset my normal.dot file. When I did that the extra
menu item disappeared.

X setup on Debian?

Posted: 02 Sep 2004 09:48 PM PDT

Hello

(Follow-Up to alt.os.linux.debian ignored, because it is not yet
available for me)

Madhusudan Singh (<invalid>) wrote: 

If the virtual consoles are broken as well, this /could/ be some
conflict between X and the console framebuffer driver. Did you try to
turn off the framebuffer driver, e.g. by passing

vga=normal
video=vga16:off

or something like that to the kernel?

Also, what kind of graphic card does the laptop use? And what version of
Debian do you use? XFree 4.1 in Woody does not support some older
cards, for which you would have to use XFree 3.3.6, or XFree 4.3.
 

By default, runlevels 2,3,4 and 5 on Debian systems are identical. You
could remove the xdm/kdm/gdm symlink for some runlevel, and boot into
that one. You can also boot into single user mode without the CDROM,
simply press <TAB> at the lilo prompt (if you use lilo), and append

init 1
or
init s

to the prompt.
 

If the card is not too old, you should rather try the VESA driver, which
should work with all VESA 2 compliant cards.
 

That depends on how X was started. If you use some login manager, this
is true. You would have to shut it down, e.g. using

/etc/init.d/xdm stop

But of course, this is difficult without working consoles.

I agree ... and would add that there is another difficulty in that
some news /servers/ reject postings to groups they don't handle,
while others silently drop those groups and effect the posting to
those that they are able.

If anything this argues against the use of follow-ups, because if a
posting is sent only to a group that is silently dropped by a
server it will disappear into the void.

I dislike cross-posting, but I firmly believe that once something
has been cross-posted it should stay that way. Experience suggests
that follow-ups actually increase the noise that they are intended
to reduce. A decent newsreader won't show you a cross-posted
message more than once, anyway.
 

It doesn't seem off-topic for either group, but as it's not a
RedHat-specific question a general group like cols is probably a
better place to ask than colr. Asking in both is only a good idea
if you think there's a good reason to suppose that there will be
people with the answer in colr who con't also follow cols. I don't
follow colr, so I can only guess, but I'd have thought asking in
cols alone would have been the best choice in this case.

I certainly agree that cross-posting is preferable to multi-posting
... but I wouldn't blame you for asking the same question in a
second group once it was clear that you weren't going to get an
answer in the first. Even the most experienced posters don't always
get it right first time.

MD 10: lilo troubles (volume, raid nonsense)

Posted: 31 Aug 2004 08:26 AM PDT

seem 

RedHat dumped it, so are other distributions. LILO has serious user
interaction issues and is far more difficult to recover from problems with,
and its fifteen or sixteen character limit in the apparent name of the boot
configurations is painful to cope with when you have multiple configurations
for testing or other purposes. As someone who's installed a series of a
dozen different kernels on the same machines and hopped among them to do
performance testing, I found that limitation painful. Mind you, I still miss
the LILO feature of doing "lilo -d [oldkernel]; lilo -R [newkernel]; reboot"
to reboot the first time only with a new kernel, and only set it as the
default if it was successful. It helped keep my hands off the hardware for
testing in remote locations and could be recovered from by a simple reboot
instead of having to bring up a console at boot time. But it's overwhelmed
by the overall flexibility and ease of configuration of the grub tools.

Whoops, I'm sorry, I thought you said I couldn't be bothered to learn LILO.

Very well could be -- hard to tell from lack of message outputs, etc.

Checking the "usual" suspects is always a good idea -- no sense in
overlooking the obvious ;-)

But working mostly from your own "diagnosis" you may have a WOL
(wake-on-lan) nic that has been awakened by some recent change in your
setup -- most drivers turn it off as the default.

Sounds like you don't really need this "feature" if it is the source
of your problem. Each nic/driver is a bit different though so google:
linux nic wake-on-lan wol
and perhaps add your nic's brand/model# to the search.

You'll find a bunch of hits -- see this for _very_ quick primer:
http://ahh.sourceforge.net/wol/

Of course, this could be a sign of a WOL nic gone bad or a heartbeat
daemon screwing up -- these can be hard to track down. Took us
several months to figure out why stations were dropping from NetWare
net at school. Onboard WOL nics can be especially trying if there is
not extensive BIOS setup support.
