Microsoft Word - How do I show or unhide menu and toolbar in Word 365

Microsoft Word - How do I show or unhide menu and toolbar in Word 365

How do I show or unhide menu and toolbar in Word 365

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 03:06 PM PDT

The menu and toolbar at the top of the page of Word 365 has disappeared as a result of something that I must have done. I've tried unsuccessfully for over an hour to show it again. Checked in the VIEW tab which seemed to be the logical place to look, but no luck. 

How do I get the standard Word menu and toolbar back again? 

I still have the Quick toolbar and mini-toolbar but I want the others back.

I'm using Windows 8

Help appreciated. F. White

reverse mail merge name address city state zip

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 02:33 PM PDT

We're using a new CRM system and when we're downloading our created letters into Word so that we can print them out to be mailed, the new system doesn't do envelopes or labels. They assume the sales people are going to hand address all the envelopes.

My question is this;
Can the customer information be extracted from the Word documents (letters) and be merged onto envelopes or labels?

At the upper left of each letter is:
Name
Address
City, State, Zip

Other than copy n paste each letter information one at a time onto an envelope, does anyone have an easier method of doing this?

I've done the obvious mail merge from a database or list to envelopes or labels but not a reverse type merge and was wondering if it was possible or if anyone has ever tried it.

Our old system did the usually mail merge; after printing the letters you had the option to create the envelopes from the same list of names the letters were created from. This new system doesn't do that for what ever reason. The only data we control is a date range of sales or service, then the letters are automatically generated.

Any advise is appreciated.

Corrupted Word 97-2003 files. What to do?

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 02:30 PM PDT

Am just finishing 30 chapter text book. Until now no problem creating files. About to print files for final editing and they will not print. Same printer HP C8180, prints all other files OK.  Possible contributing factor:  created several chapters on daughter's computer in Norway using Norwegian version of Word (2010).  Suspect some files got corrupted and affects all others. HELP!!  

How Can I Edit Label Main Document After it Has Been Saved

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 02:08 PM PDT

I am using the Label MailMerge in Word 2010 to set-up coupons (4 up on a page) that will be individualized with my customer's name.
After I sent out the first batch of coupons, I decided that I wanted to make changes to the content of the coupon itself.
For example, I want to change a graphic, font, etc.
When I designed the 'Label Main Document' initially, I can see a 'Update All Labels' button which will copy the current label to the other 3 on the page which obviously saves a lot of time.
However, when I want to modify the document for the second set of coupons and choose 'Start from an existing document' the 'Update All Labels' button is not visible while editing the document.
Therefore I have to make changes to each label (coupon) individually which is very time consuming.
I am sure that I am missing a step or something else and have scoured the internet and cannot find a solution to my problem.
Thank you in advance for all assistance.

I can't record the part of a macro I need...

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 01:15 PM PDT

I need to be able to select a picture and use the Picture Tools/Format/Arrange/Position/In line with Text, but when I record a macro to do that, the Position icon is dim. I'm using Excel macro to put pictures into Word at specified bookmarks, but they're all going in on top of each other! If the pictures could be selected and then use the In Line With text feature, my issue is solved.

1 - I need a macro to Select the pictures/objects so I can mark them with the In Line with text, and I also need the ability to Mark them as In Line with text.

2 - Since I can't record this, does anyone know the macro code to accomplish this?

Thanks!

Ensuring users don't change template styles

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 12:05 PM PDT

I'm setting up a document template for our company. One of the problems we've had is users changing the template's styles to suit themselves rather than using our company's standard format. In a template I created in Word 97, I was able to keep the "Automatically update document styles" box checked in the template, and when someone would reformat the template styles, their changes would be lost when the document was reopened. In Word 2010, however, that doesn't seem to work. They can still un-number our Heading styles, or make them bullets or reset paragraph spacing or whatever they want, and the changes stay, making a template a waste of time.

 

Is there some way to ensure the users cannot change the styles? A bit of customization is allowed (from the "Normal" style), but I'd like our main styles to stay formatted per the template.

 

I'm using Word 2010 with both Windows XP and Windows 7.

 

Thanks!

Word does not display the same font on my PC as it was created in

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 11:26 AM PDT

A co-worker created a document in Word 2007 using Arial.  He emailed this document to me for review and corrections.  In the preview pane I see the document in Arial font.  As soon as I open the document it displays as Times New Roman.  I can make all my changes and then save the document.  When I send it back to my co-workers, they all see it displayed in Arial.  What setting in Word 2007 could cause this change in display?  I do have the Arial font on my PC and use it for many documents.

Hello everyone!

I want to customize shortcut for Format Painter (that you use to copy only format and than appy on newly selected text).

 

I go to Word Options - Customise - Customize,

add different footers to one document

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 09:32 AM PDT

 I am trying to create one single document out of about 25 existing documents.  Each of the existing documents have footers and page #'s in the footer.  I need to carry over these footers into the new document.  I have followed the following instructions from various internet sites:

 

1)  Click beginning of page where I want to change footer

2)  Click Page Break - Next Page under Page Layout/Page Set Up

3)  Double click on the footer that I need to revise

4)  Click off "Link to Previous"

5)  Revise footer

6)  Closer Footer/Header

 

This works but starts a new page #.  Begins with Page 1 within that section.  I need to revise / customize footers within the document but need to have continuous running pages. 

 

Is there a way to do this?  Can anyone help?  Thanks.

Office 2010 Default save file type is not xlsx.

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 09:16 AM PDT

Hiya!! For some reason, when I save any office document (such as word, excel and powerpoint etc...) the default file type it wants to save as is always open office, not .xlsx, which is always what it was. How can I change this? I have already tried a repair install and it has made no difference.

Is it a coincadence that the open office option is at the bottom of the list where you select your format to save in?

Anyway, thanks in advance

Formula not calculating numbers with plus signs

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 08:46 AM PDT

I am using a formula in a Word table to add up budget modifications.  I need to use pluses and minuses to denote each modification- for example, I'll use "+$500.00" or "-300.00."

However, the formula only registers the minuses.  So, if "+$500.00"and "-$300.00" are filled in, the formula will yield a sum of "-$300.00."  I guess it is not recognizing "+$500.00" as a number.

Is there any way to change this?

(Of course, I know that removing the plus signs would fix the problem, but I'm required to use the plus signs on the forms, so that's not an option.)

Office 2010 new heading styles

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 05:13 AM PDT

In Office 2010, there are 9 pre-built heading styles from heading1 to heading9 and if any of these styles is applied to a title in a document for example "Chapter 1", then "Chapter 1" will be shown in the table of content also Navigation pane for easier access. Basically, the first tab from left in the Navigation pane displays the document's headings.

The thing is If we create a new styles as a heading using Styles pane, add it to the styles list of the current document and then we apply this user-created style to a title for example "Chapter 2", then "Chapter 2" will not show up in the Navigation pane. In other words, it seems Word only recognizes those titles with pre-built heading styles as headings and other titles, which do not have pre-built heading styles, are not treated as headings.  

How to solve this?

how to enable a 3-user Word 2007 licence

Link Excel data to specific fields in a Word 2010 document

Posted: 04 Sep 2013 02:06 AM PDT

Hi,

I would like to know if it's possible to have specific 'fields' in a Word document refer to data in an Excel spreadsheet.

It's a mail merge document, which has to be sent out to a lot of people as PDFs.

The text below is an example of the contents of a letter, where the text in square brackets are variable and dependent on the data in the spreadsheet, each referring to an individual cell.

"This is to confirm that [Name] [Surname] is registered at [institution] as a full-time student for the [year] academic year to study for the [duration] [Qualification] degree ([gender] is currently in [gender 2] [level] year of study.)"

The variable that fills [Insitution] must come from a drop down menu in Excel.

1. Is there a way to batch create these letters and then save them as PDFs?

Thanks in advance!

P.S. Unfortunately we cannot use macros because of security reasons.

"Title Case" Handled Incorrectly in Word 2013

Posted: 03 Sep 2013 03:32 PM PDT

In older versions of Word one could select a sentence, or a group of words, and then ask Word to change the case. You can still do this except with title case, which has been changed to "Capitalize Each Word,"  so users can no longer quickly change to title case. You either have to do the capitalization manually, or go back and un-capitalize all the words, such as articles and  prepositions, that should not be capitalized in a title. 
Is there someone out there who could provide some enlightenment into this bizarre loss of functionality, and possibly a workaround? Thanks.

Microsoft / Word HELP

Posted: 11 May 2008 03:07 PM PDT

In addition to John's helpful advice, we could point out that the Office
2008 help is almost entirely ON-line.

The main reason Microsoft did this was was to enable updates quickly and
frequently. There will be updates coming out for the offline help, but
generally you will get much better results by leaving the help enabled for
online searching currently.

Most users will get much better help this way: the problem with OFF-line
help is that you have to start writing it two years before the product goes
on sale, so the majority of the topics end up being written by someone who
has never seen the finished product.

Those of us trying to work on trains, planes and buses are less well-served,
of course :-) The idea is to eventually have the best of both worlds: to
enable the Help to update its local copy each time it does go on line.
Maybe next time, for that bit...

Hope this helps

Ofice 2008 crash all the time

Posted: 08 May 2008 09:28 AM PDT

Hi Jose:

We just don't have a list: it varies with every point-release of both Mac OS
X and Office.

My "rule of thumb" is "If Apple or Microsoft did not make it, don't run it."
The only exception I make is Adobe Reader. But even some versions of that
don't work right (or haven't in the past).

I also try to stay a version of Mac OS X behind the latest. That way, some
other poor unfortunate gets to find out about the bugs before I do :-) My
days as Crash Dummy are over :-)

Cheers

Word 2008 Margin settings trouble

Posted: 30 Apr 2008 01:26 PM PDT

Just *one* of the influencing factors John is referring to is Widow/Orphan
Control which prevents the first line of a paragraph from being stranded at
the bottom of a page & prevents the last line of a paragraph appearing alone
at the top of a page.

This as well as other formatting renders a net result which you can
interpret as: The margin setting only determines the *limit* to which the
text can go, it doesn't force the content to go that far.

Not to interfere with John's sage advice - he'll provide the specific
guidance you may need - but in addition you may find this article useful:

Salil,

Yes, CRM will support Exchange 2000. Was this an email alias that you were
previously using? If so, try re-booting your Exchange server. Even though
you've disabled the account, Exchange may be caching the account info and
treating it as still active.

2. Open Outlook.

Triggering a workflow

Posted: 05 Jun 2004 06:04 AM PDT

Lee,

Another alternative to the workflow setup Dave outlined, you could do something
like this with post-callout. They aren't easy to get working, but once you get
the framework in place, they work pretty good.

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to trigger a workflow when a
specific selection is made from a custom field pick list (for an
existing lead record that is assigned to a user and does not require a

Also, I assume workflows can be used to update a custom field with a
null entry, effectively clearing the field entry?

Thanks

I heard awhile back that MS is working on a generic ODBC driver that will

Microsoft Word - MS Word Formatting

Microsoft Word - MS Word Formatting

MS Word Formatting

Posted: 03 Sep 2013 02:26 PM PDT

Hi Microsoft Community,

I have a word document that I want to copy into another but the formatting won't adjust automatically from the donor document to the new.

I have attempted pasting through "Use Destination Theme" option but it omits most of the new documents formatting styles.

I've also removed formatting from the source document and pasted into the new, but the problem still persists.

I have more cutting and pasting processes to go through for other docs and am looking for an easy and efficient way around all this.

Thanks in advance.

Macros disabled in Normal.dotm template

Posted: 03 Sep 2013 01:55 PM PDT

I'm having a contuing problem when I create a macro to be stored in the Normal.dotm template (in Word 2010).  I apologize if this question seems to be repeating the same one that has been posted over and over in the forum, but I've tried almost all of the suggestions and still have the original problem.  I have created a simple macro to be stored in the Normal.dotm template (I've been careful to make sure of that), but every time I open a blank document in Word, I get the message that macros have been disabled.  Even though my default macro security is set for "disable with notification", I know that macros in the Normal.dotm template should be automatically enabled.  My experience differs somewhat from others in the forum in that if I click the "Enable" button, I get a pop-up message that the "Normal.dotm is locked for editing by [my name]" and options to "Open a Read Only Copy", "Create a local copy ", or "Receive notification when original is available".  Any of these choices gives me a document with no macros available at all.  Also, this happens when it's the only document open, so how it's "locked for editing" is beyond me. 

 

I should note that my computer was recently upgraded to Windows 7 (from XP), and that I didn't have any of these issues before the upgrade.  I have spent most of an afternoon trying to solve this, but my only option seems to be to set the security to enable all macros, which of course is a big risk.  I'm not a newbie when it comes to macros, but this run-around is making me wonder if I should just give up on using this very useful tool. Could the problem be originating from something other than Office 2010 (such as maybe the Windows 7 installation)?

text disappears between pages in Microsoft Word 2007

Posted: 03 Sep 2013 01:08 PM PDT

Hello! I am experiencing an odd issue: At the bottom of one page and carrying over to the top of the next one, several lines of text "disappear." I can get the text to reappear by inserting a page break above it, but I'd really prefer not to leave nearly half a page empty for no apparent reason. The text is not hidden, the orphan controls and "keep with next" are deactivated, there are no margin buffers or footers that would obscure the text, and I just cannot seem to find a reason why this is happening. This issue has also been encountered by at least three other co-workers, and despite some intense Googling, we are unable to resolve the problem. (The only semi-related topics I've found deal with line spacing and tables, but neither seems to affect this issue.) Strangely, this does not happen in every document; there is no consistent pattern of when the error occurs.

 

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide...

 

Word merge - Header issues

I am doing a merge in MS Word.  I really need to be able to put variable values in the heading.  When I put variables in the heading, the values are not filled in.

In word 2013 I have a multi paged table. I can't move the table down on the second page.

Posted: 03 Sep 2013 12:04 PM PDT

The table on the second pages sits up high on the page. I can't seem to get the table to slide down a bit so I won't be stapling on the writing in the table. Any time I try to put the curser above the table on the second page it just wants to sit inside the table and to space inside the table. I want to slide the table down and make space above the table, that is continuing from page one. I have tried a few things but it just messes up the table and the other pages. When I just try to highlight the top of the table on page two it also highlights the bottom of the table from page one. The table still sees its self as one even with the page break. I did not create the page break it decided that for me. Trying to make forms for a classroom. Thanks

word 2013 opening compatibility mode with different file name

Posted: 03 Sep 2013 11:15 AM PDT

When I open Word 2013, with an older file format (2010, 2007,ect.) the file name will show up as "Wd000001" for example in compatibility mode. Whenever I convert the file or resave it to the newer version, it will still open with the file name Wd000002 or something similar. The older versions used to open in compatibility mode, but would keep the same file names. Any ideas how to fix this? I just want it to keep the same file location and name.

Page Count In Footer Not Working as it did in Excel 2007

Posted: 03 Sep 2013 10:48 AM PDT

I can't find a way to add to the page count in Excel 2010.  In the past I could use "&[Pages] +2" to add 2 to the number of pages printed.  Then I could combine pages from other spreadsheets with the total number of pages being correctly shown in the footer.  Now this syntax simply appends the number to the number of pages so instead of 21+3 = 24 pages I get 213.  Any ideas?

Words stretching to justify

Posted: 03 Sep 2013 10:09 AM PDT

I have written a file in Urdu/Pashto language. Let's suppose the first line has 10 words and the second line is comprised of 6 small words. Justification does not increase the spacing between the words to make the two lines equal. I want the individual words to be stretched such that both the lines are of equal length. I also want the remaining space to be compensated by the software via automatically increasing and adjusting the spacing between the words. 
Note: For larger files increasing the spacing between the shorter lines one by one is a lot of work and present ugly looks. Words stretching would be a nice alternative. 
Microsoft Word does stretch the words but the problem arises that the words get stretched only in the case when one last word slips to the second line. when i bring it back to the parent line, the stretching gets lost. I have illustrated the scenario in the following picture.

Run-time Error 5 "Invalid Procedure Call or Argument" when querying an Access table from Word

Posted: 03 Sep 2013 04:04 AM PDT

Hi everyone,

 

In Word 2013, I query an .accdb database with two extremely simple SQL strings:

 

 

 

Function GetDivisieID(Divisie As String) As String
Dim strSQL As String, varResult As Variant

    strSQL = "SELECT Description, DivisionID FROM Divisions WHERE Description='" & Divisie & "'"
    varResult = StartQuery(SQL:=strSQL, SortString:="", FunctionName:="GetDivisieID", Scheidingsteken:="")
    GetDivisieID = LTrim(Str(varResult(0)))   
End Function

 

 

 

Function GetTaalID(TaalAfk As String) As String
Dim strSQL As String, varResult As Variant

    strSQL = "SELECT LanguageID, Description FROM Language WHERE Description='" & TaalAfk & "'"
'    strSQL = "SELECT Language.LanguageID FROM Language"
    varResult = StartQuery(SQL:=strSQL, SortString:="", FunctionName:="GetTaalID", Scheidingsteken:="")
    GetTaalID = LTrim(Str(varResult(0)))
End Function

 

 

 

' StartQuery() merely exists to avoid duplicate lines of code

Private Function StartQuery(SQL As String, SortString As String, FunctionName As String, Scheidingsteken As String) As Variant
Dim conn As ADODB.Connection, strConn As String, rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim lngN As Long, strResult() As String, strDB As String

 

    Set StartQuery = Nothing
    ReDim strResult(0)
    strResult(0) = ""
    strDB = modPaden.OWDatabase ' path to the database
    Set conn = New ADODB.Connection
    Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
    strConn = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" & strDB & ";"

    With conn
        .Open (strConn)
        .CursorLocation = adUseClient
    End With
   
    With rs
        .Open SQL, conn ' <= the error occurs here
        Set .ActiveConnection = Nothing

    End With

 

    If Not (rs.BOF And rs.EOF) Then        
        If SortString <> "" Then
            rs.Sort = SortString
        End If
        rs.MoveLast
        rs.MoveFirst
        lngN = 0
       
        While Not rs.EOF
            Select Case FunctionName
                Case "GetDivisieID"
                    strResult(lngN) = rs!DivisionID
                Case "GetTaalID"
                    strResult(lngN) = rs!LanguageD
                Case Else
            End Select
           
            rs.MoveNext
            lngN = lngN + 1
            ReDim Preserve strResult(lngN)
        Wend
       
        If Not (UBound(strResult) = 0 And strResult(0) = "") Then
            ReDim Preserve strResult(UBound(strResult) - 1)
            StartQuery = strResult()
        End If
    End If
    
    rs.Close
    Set rs = Nothing
    conn.Close
    Set conn = Nothing

End Function

 

 

My code calls GetDivisieID, which works fine, and immediately thereafter calls GetTaalID, which produces run-time error 5: "Invalid Procedure Call or Argument" when executing varResult = StartQuery(.... When I use the even simpler strSQL = "SELECT Language.LanguageID FROM Language", commented out in the above code, the error occurs as well.

 

In Access, all three queries work. I have copied the contents of the SQL-view in Access in the Word VBA-editor in order to avoid typing mistakes.

Why does the error occur? How can I avoid it?

 

Thank you,

Cooz

How to edit Word or Excel 2013 files on 2 computers at the same time? (It looks like OneNote & PowerPoint can do it all the time but not Word or Excel?)

Posted: 03 Sep 2013 01:39 AM PDT

Hi guys,

I have a PC and a tablet. I also have both the SkyDrive Desktop app installed, so I can pull the documents and edit them whenever from various places.

When I try to open the same file in OneNote (i.e., a NoteBook) or the same PowerPoint presentation, it allows for both computers to simultaneously edit the document (great for annotating on one and typing on the other). This occurs without any problems as long as the files are in the new format. I've noticed if the PowerPoints are in the older format (2007-2010, then it will not work.

The main problem is with Word and Excel 2013. I have noticed this simultaneous editing does not always work for Word. It never seems to work at all for Excel. I've noticed certain documents will allow me to edit them while others will not (any reasons?) When it does not give access, there will be an error saying "File In Use. This file is locked for editing by another user." Some Word 2013 files work and some files do not. I've checked the files that works and the files that do not, but they're both free of any type of restrictions. Anyone know why I am unable to open and edit some of these files on more than one computer?

Buggy equations in Word 2010

Even if I have to install some extra patch or something it would be nice.

System error with all addins containing userforms

Posted: 03 Sep 2013 12:25 AM PDT

One of my users reports a meltdown that began just after a presumably routine Windows update. I maintain two VBA addins and several regular (non-addin) templates for the company, and her PC -- alone -- now throws an error when any of these files that contain userforms is launched or loaded, or when attempting to open its userform module in the VBE.


Removing the userform(s) eliminates the error. The message (from VBA) is: System Error &H8007007E (-2147024770). The specified module could not be found.


Googling this turns up a few people with similar issues, but all are from many versions ago. Some imply the fix is to reregister some (many? all?) .DLLs. But I'm not sure what that means. Can anyone help?


The only real difference I can discern between her PC and everyone else's is that hers is an HP whereas most of the rest of us have Dells.


Grateful for any clues.

Word 2013 unable to "create word file."

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 10:18 PM PDT

I have had Office 2013 installed since winter on my computer with OS WIN 7.  For most of that time now I get the message, "Word could not create the work file.  Check the temp environment variable" every time I open Word.  I have read the forums and applied every fix I can find...I have uninstalled and reinstalled, had my Control Panel repair the program, gone into my registry to apply a fix suggested to me (even though my registry was correct), gone into Internet Options to apply the fix there, start and restart my computer...I have done everything except sacrifice an offering to the Microsoft gods and NOTHING WORKS.  I have documents in Word that I can not even open and that scares me.  I wish someone would come up with a solution to this problem.  Is my Office program corrupt?  Do I need a new one? 

Maximum Word 2013 File Size

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 09:25 PM PDT

G'day;

 

I have asked a similar question some time ago but received conflicting answers.

So, I thought I might try again.

 

I have a have a very large Word 2013 document.

It has about 675 A4 pages with many graphics, tables, footnotes, etc.

 

I can't work with this file or save it in Word.

I have had to break it into small parts to work with.

However, I now have to send it as one contiguous file to a commercial printer to print it.

 

One person, who replied to my previous question, claims that they were able to work with a similar 700 page document with Word.

This caused me to wonder if the problem might be with my fairly old hardware system -- not with Word.

My system has only 8 Mb RAM.

I would go to the expense of upgrading to a new hardware system with 32 Mb of RAM if that would solve the problem.

 

However I don't know if the cause of the problem is a limitation of the file size that Word can handle,

or insufficient RAM.

 

Any advice appreciated.

 

Cheers,

Hugh

How can I change the indent on an automatic numbered list

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 09:24 PM PDT

When I begin a numbered list by typing 1) and a space, Word automatically indents the left margin of my list, and I have to click the "decrease indent" button so that the 1) is lined back up with the left hand margin and there is no indent.  Is there a way to set up the automatic numbering so that the numbered list will begin without indenting the left hand margin?

How to enable inking in Microsoft Word 2007?

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 07:41 PM PDT

How do I enable inking in Microsoft Word 2007? The pen tools are grayed out and Start Inking does not appear in the Review tab. I have tried the following but it doesn't seem to work:
  • Add Pens to the Quick Access Ribbon. However when I click on it the pen tools are all grayed out. 
  • Enabling Tablet PC Components in Windows features. This was actually already checked, but I rechecked and rebooted just to make sure. Didn't work.
  • Download and install the latest tablet driver from Wacom's website. No luck.
  • Check if I can use the Windows Journal with my tablet. I can write in it just fine, but there is no pressure sensitivity. I can also use my tablet to write in OneNote. Again, no pressure sensitivity.
  • Go to Start > Right click Computer > Properties to check if Pen Input is available. It is available.
  • Go to Start > Control Panel > Programs > Change Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 > Add / Remove Features. I went through the drop downs for all components and couldn't find anything related to inking or handwriting.
I run a Dell Inspiron 1545, 64-bit Windows 7, Intel Dual Core with 4GB RAM. 

Any thoughts please?

How to avoid having two footers in a pleading

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 05:18 PM PDT

I have created a pleading boilerplate.  The title of the pleading must appear in the footer.  The second page of the pleading has the firm's address in the left hand margin (which is part of the header/footer for the second page and subsequent pages).  Therefore, I clicked "different first page"on the first page to avoid having the firm's address in the left hand margin (as it is already at the top of the first page).  Now, the user must put the title of pleading once in the footer on page 1 and again in the footer on page 2.  Since this document is being used as a boilerplate, I'd rather not create a macro to place the footer, I'd just like the user to enter the footer once on page 1.  Can anyone tell me if this can be done?

Thanks very much.  Michelle

Moving Cells in Tables

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 05:12 PM PDT

Greetings!

I have a MS Word 2010 document that contains about 100 tables.

Each separate table has four cells, each of which contains varying amounts of data (from one sentence to many sentences).

For example, all the tables look like this (the cells do not have labels):

Cell A | Cell B
---------------
Cell C | Cell D

I need help in creating a macro that will move / switch all the data in Cell C to Cell B, and move / switch all the data from Cell B to Cell C. This could be done by hand (mouse), one by one, but it would take almost forever.

The data in cells A and D will not be moved and should stay intact.

I would deeply appreciate your help in this matter.

"Lost" text in Word 2010 "web layout" view

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 01:05 PM PDT

For a few weeks now I've be noticing that in Web Layout view I have been 'losing' some text at the indicated page break line.  Here is 2 views of the same document. The only thing that has changed is that the first one is full screen and the other forced redraw because it was not full screen. The cursor was not moved, zoom level was not changed, only the document was "unstuck" from top of the screen which forced full screen view

<comment> Well, that sucks! Now I can't insert pictures. For some reason the "Upload" dialog only shows the heading and a blank 1 line space below it ...  FireFox 23.0.1  </comment>

<edit> OK, I logged in to IE and image upload works ... <sigh>, they are playing games again </edit>

<edit> <sigh> when I went to document not being able to upload images in FF, it now works. go figure </edit>

 

Note: in this first screen capture (app window not maximized to full screen) the body text goes from Point 12 to Heading 2 Item 4

 

 

This next screen capture shows exactly the same document at an indicated page break "jumping" from point 12 to several lines down into the Heading 2 body text, with no sign of the heading.


The images I was going to post show that without changing anything other that forcing a redraw, show that in one SEVERAL lines of body text are "lost" in the page break.
