| Is Word RT able to track changes? Posted: 18 Sep 2013 03:07 PM PDT I am researching the feasibility of doing my editing on a tablet and was wondering if any of you could tell me about the functionality of the editing capabilities of the Microsoft Word RT version. For instance, is it equivalent to the full Word version and able to do formatting changes, track changes and add notes?
Thanks!

| MS Office Home and Student 2010 Error 1920 Configuration pop up Posted: 18 Sep 2013 02:35 PM PDT My daughter just started school and all of a sudden when selecting MS Office documents, Office try's to configure and install when we had installed years ago. Why this is popping up I have no idea. We cant use Office when we invested in this years ago. I do not have original disks or product key. Extremely frustrating when daughter cant use MS Office now. Called Microsoft as this was probably due to their updates (no other reason or thing we did). They turned off services and had me try to "repair". I received the same error - 1920: Service Office Software Protection Platform(OSPPSVC) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services. Set-up failed - Rolling back changes. Microsoft service tried to log in remotely and for some reason that did not work. Interesting? After the "repair" failed, I have another call into Microsoft. Anyone else have suggestions. This is very frustrated as I have spent hours on this and my daughter is just trying to start doing her high school work. She has to borrow our other computer. Any help is requested? I just want MS Office 2010 to stop trying to install when we had this installed before - Brian |

| Why is it called font when it is really typeface? Posted: 18 Sep 2013 01:39 PM PDT When you list the option to change the "font," I believe that this is incorrect. It should in reality be "change the typeface," since it is the design of the letters, and not the source of them. Just saying. |

| Office 2003 and 2007 on 1 PC .... Posted: 18 Sep 2013 12:56 PM PDT Hi,
We were using 2003 in the company - now we're going to a hosted Exchange Server on-line.
Because of that I had to upgrade everyone to 2007 for Outlook and Word.
One guy hates 2007 and the ribbon toolbar - OK, fine use Word 2003.
He's got the 2003 icon pinned to the start bar on his Win 7 desktop and if he clicks on it normally, it launches Word 2003 just fine.
If he r.clicks it and picks a document to open, it unfortunately starts up Word 2007 - how can I fix it so it only opens the doc in Word 2003 only?
We'll still want Word 2007 on the PC and available if he needs it. We just want 2003 to be the go to version.
Cheers'
Brian

| Text cut off although line spacing is sufficient Posted: 18 Sep 2013 11:42 AM PDT We are printing a dictionary. The defined words are Arial 6 pt.; the definitions are MSReferenceSansSerif 5.5 pt. The line spacing is set to Exactly 6 pt. Although it appears that there is sufficient space for the descenders (parts of the letters that drop below the line) and on screen it appears fine, some of the letter is not printing. I do not want to change the line spacing to single because that would significantly increase the size of the document. Can you help solve this? TIA Guy |
| Document Displays Differently on Other Computers Posted: 18 Sep 2013 11:37 AM PDT I'm having an issue with a document I created. The purpose of the document is to be a proposal template for multiple people at our company to use. I've formatted it just the way it needs to be and it looks great on my computer but when I send it to the other people who will be using it, the text displays differently than on my computer. We all have the same font installed, so I know it's not trying to use a replacement font. Actually, if I look at the document when it's open on another computer, the text that's displaying funny is the exact same font, size, and same spacing between lines so I can't for the life of me figure out why it looks so different. It's very important that it's consistent throughout the whole company but I'm not sure how to accomplish that. I'm familiar with Word but only on a pretty basic level.

| WORD 2007: How to insert in the TOC the total number of pages of the document excluding the Annexes Posted: 18 Sep 2013 10:59 AM PDT Let me first put you in the picture: When I prepare a complex document (Technical Specification, Project,etc.) I have format changes so I have to insert new sections, sometimes with different Header & Footer (for instance when I have to change the page format from vertical to horizontal, etc. Additional to that, at the end of the document I have to add several Annexes (very one in a different section). Some of the Annexes have to include plain paper (sometimes scanned) documents. Then is not possible that Word knows the total number of pages of that Annex, so we have to do that manually within the Header & Footer area. Due to this problem of unknown number of pages, we would like to number the TOC pages not as the set the total number of pages at the last page of the document before the Annexes start. This should include all the existing sections of the document before the Annexes sections. Is that possible in Word 2007? I handle the idea of adding the number of pages of every section that I want to include but I don't know if that's feasible (for instance using VBA). I didn't find out the way to do that in the TOC (neither in any other part of the document). The only way I find is to split the document (Annexes in a separate document). Is that possible in Word 2010 or 2013? Thank you very much in advance. Kind regards Manuel |

| WLM blocks attachments after September 2013 updates Posted: 18 Sep 2013 09:47 AM PDT Your reply to my question referring me to your response to other queries about being unable to open Word files after September 2013 updates confirms what I had already discovered in order to access both Word and Excel files stored on my computer. What it doesn't answer, however, is why I have now had to untick the "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus" box in Windows Live Mail in order to be able to open or save Word or Excel files attached to emails. Do you have an answer to this problem. Prior to the September 2013 update, I always had this box ticked. Surely Windows Live Mail should not regard Microsoft Word and Excel files as dangerous.

| intermittent inability to save Word2010 document Posted: 18 Sep 2013 04:46 AM PDT Windows XP, SP3
I've had this for a few weeks and have tried most things on the Internet. Usually, Save works OK , but sometimes it says it can't save it and I have to use Save As to desktop. The messages are different at different times - close the drive, network problems etc - all unrelated to what I'm doing I've removed the addins Finereader and TBRun9.dot (but not Autotext) from Startup - though I've just noticed now they have come back in Startup (but not in the Addin list in Word Options). I've renamed normal.dotm template Abnormal.dot and let it remake it - all my customized stuff was still present (don't know if this is normal). I did a repair from the CD (it changed the font in my normal.dotm). None of this makes any difference. The files are not read only etc.
Also, I don't get any autosave file and no change to the last backup file - Autosave is set to 5 min and Keep autosaves if I exit without saving, while Save is set to Always create backup and Allow background saves.
If I try to open the last backup (today, a backup from 8 days ago, after I'd already worked on the file itself for 30 min today), it says it's in use by someone else and the only way I can get it to open is to reboot the computer - closing Word alone has no effect.
Any ideas

| Save as docm instead of docx as default? Posted: 18 Sep 2013 04:29 AM PDT In a previous thread ( http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-word/how-do-i-get-macros-to-be-included-in-the/937914d1-8e09-42ea-974e-69b026584841) I received great help to understand about macros and templates and how to distribute them. However, getting this to work was easier said then done and the macro problems persist. People not always remember to install the correct templates on their computers, and even if they do remember, changed template names create problems since old documents based on old templates "look for" templates that are obsolete and have been removed. If I understand things correctly, a docm file can hold macro code. My assumption is: if documents based on a dotm template are saved as docm, the macros are included in the docm file and the files do not require the templates to be installed in a predetermined location. Is my assumption correct? If it is correct, is there a way to make Word save all files based on dotm templates as docm, not as docx as default? It would good to have this behaviour as default when a user selects "Save" after having double-clicked on a template. I could include this step in the Writer's instructions, but not all users care to read instructions. Regards, Lars |
| How to make monospaced fonts work with mixed bold and non-bold characters? Posted: 18 Sep 2013 04:00 AM PDT I'm writing a programming tutorial that includes several source code samples, and I'd like to use monospaced (fixed-width) fonts. When I paste the source code, it comes nicely formatted from my IDE (Eclipse). However, even though I'm using monospaced fonts, the caracters don't align vertically. You can see an example in the image below: inside the red rectangle, the top line has only 3 characters, but it takes up almos the same width as the line below, which has blank spaces.
The reason (I suppose) is that bold characters are wider than regular characters (which is not what I expected, since the font is monospaced). I've tried Consolas, Courier New and Lucida Console, although my real intent is to use DejaVu Sans Mono.
Is there a way to make monospaced fonts have a constant width for any character, regardless of being bold or not?
Thanks!

| Conversion of Excel & Word Starter 2010 files by Microsoft without Warning or Notice Posted: 18 Sep 2013 01:12 AM PDT Sometime within the past week, all of my Excel spreadsheets & workbooks as well as all of my Word documents had their icons converted (and perhaps their file extensions -- I'm not sure) so that not one of them can be opened directly with a double-click. When this is attempted, a dialog box pops up stating that the program needed to open the files is not installed on my computer and offers me the option of purchasing a new Office program. My PC is a HP Desktop with Windows 7 Home Premium, which included the Microsoft Office Starter 2010 program at purchase. I have discovered that I do in fact still have Word & Excel Starter 2010 programs on my computer. But apparently, I must open those programs first now, and then search for the specific document or spreadsheet I want to open from inside the programs. I am flabbergasted that Microsoft could or would do this with no apparent reason or seemingly good cause. I would like to know the reason for this and how this can even be legal!! UPDATE: I just discovered that I received automatic updates form Windows on 9/12/13 which included one for Microsoft Office 2010. After looking at the online support for the update, I was unable to determine exactly what the update was supposed to do or how it might effect the Office Starter 2010 programs I am using, so I uninstalled it. I am happy to say that the problem with my documents is now solved. I do have one concern remaining however, and that is: will the Windows automatic updates attempt to reinstall this update in the future since it will find that it is not installed on my PC any longer? I really don't want to go through this headache again! |
| Recovering previous versions of TEMP files that have been overridden by reopening attachment Posted: 18 Sep 2013 12:38 AM PDT So typical story, I opened a document from an email attachment, started working from it without saving it to any specific location, then just clicked "Save" and closed it. When I realized what I had done, I knew that I needed to retrieve it from my Temp folder, but I could not remember how to access the Temp folder, and remembered a previous post that had instructed me to open an attachment, go to the Properties, and look at the file location. I did so, choosing to reopen the same attachment from the original email I started working from. I successful found the Temp folder and the file...BUT I FOUND THE NEW FILE I HAD JUST OPENED, not the one I spent hours working on! I found the following article from Microsoft, which says that when Word create a temporary file, it deletes the previous version of the document. I made a huge mistake in re-opening the same attachment, because now there is only one version of the document! In the past I've seen files that get reopened several times numbered, but this time it seems previous versions just get deleted from the Temp file. Help! Is there any way to recover the Previous Versions of the file that my computer deleted when I reopened the same attachment from my email? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/211632/en-us |
