Microsoft Word - MS Office 2013 Spell Check not working though Proofing Options are correct

MS Office 2013 Spell Check not working though Proofing Options are correct

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 02:56 PM PDT

My Spell Check on Word 2013 suddenly stopped working mid-way through my writing assignment. I go to highlight words to be checked 
and a dialogue box pops up saying "Spelling and Grammar check is complete. You are good to go!" when there are clearly errors in my writing whether it is spelling or grammar related. The spell check is skipping right over them and telling me it is completed and corrected. I went to the Proofing options under the file tab and have everything selected that is necessary for it work. It's been getting frustrating and I am trying to figure out why it won't successfully be applied to my document! 

Can't use SAVE ICON in MS Word 365

Word 2013 Not Turning Hyperlinks into Clickable links

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 02:11 PM PDT

Hi, 
Why are my hyperlinks broken?
When I paste a link into word, instead of turning a link into a clickable link, it pastes, and autocorrects to this:

Any ideas on how to change the behaviour back to the normal behaviour? 

Thanks George :)

Add x number of rows to a table

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 01:59 PM PDT

I have an existing table with a small number of rows, and need to add a large number of new rows.  If I right click and select insert rows, it adds only 1 row at a time (or however many existing rows I highlight).  How can I tell it I want to add a certain (large) number of rows all at once (ideally by typing in the number at some point)?  Note, I need to add more rows than I already have, so I can't just highlight more rows before right-clicking.  I seem to remember being able to do this in earlier versions of word, but maybe I am misremembering

Translating

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 01:43 PM PDT

I have already translated the document from English to Spanish and the Spanish version is now on microsofttranslator.com. My question is once it is there is there a way for me to get the spanish version in a word document that is set up in the same format as the english version? I do not want to have to copy and paste the Spanish version into a word document in order to keep the format the same. Does anyone know how I can do this or if it is even possible? 
 

How to insert different type pages numbers on different pages in one document?

How to insert different type pages numbers on different pages in one document?

Document sometimes open to display tracking and sometimes does not.

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 12:51 PM PDT

Brand new image on corporate network of Windows 7 & Office 2010. The user worked with a Track changes document, attached document to an email and sent it. Recipient reports the doc opened and displayed the tracking - as expected. No problem.

The original user went to her sent items and opened the attachment - it opened in Display Final view instead of the expected Final Showing Markup. She freaked out.

WHY would it be a different default view setting simply because the copy was opened from a sent message? It opens displaying the changes off the server just fine. 

Hidden text does not stay hidden

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 11:07 AM PDT

Folks,

 

I cannot get hidden text to stay hidden. 

 

If I mark text as hidden, and do File>Options>Display and clear Hidden Text and Always show formatting Marks, the text vanishes.

 

 After I re-start word, the hidden text is visible again.

 

Note:  I am running word 2010 as part of mypc, inside a company's network.  I have no pc, just a thin client.

 

I can see where the templates are located.

C:\Users\<me>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates

 

The "Help" desk here is clueless.  They said they would look into it. 

 

Does anyone here have any ideas?

 

Thanks.

If the text box is copied from the "from.doc" to the "to.doc", the format is changed. Why ?

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 10:54 AM PDT

If the text box is copied from the "from.doc" to the "to.doc", the format of the text box is changed. Specifically, the FirstLineIndent and the LineSpacing are changed. I am confused why would this happen ? 

Because the format can be kept if I paste it into other files, I am wondering what is so special about this "to.doc" ?

PS1: There are many text boxes to be copy-paste. I want to avoid manual changing format of the text boxes afterwards.

PS2: The "from.doc" and "to.doc" contains great amount of other information. I want to avoid transferring their content to a fresh Word file.

Any insight is appreciated !

Customize Word 2010 footnote formatting

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 10:29 AM PDT

Is it possible to customize Word 2010's footnote formatting so that Word uses 1) a superscripted footnote marker in the text (default format) with 2) a non-superscripted footnote marker followed by a period (e.g., "1.") in the footnote? Here's a picture of what I'm trying to do:

Word 2010 Equation Editor not working since last update

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 10:11 AM PDT

At least one month ago Word 2010 Equation Editor was working fine. Now (10/3/2013) when I try to create a new equation in a new document and use the pull-down for fractions all of the available options are blank. The same holds true for all of the other pull-downs except for the one that has complete equations as a number of choices.
I have perused similar question from others that are more than a year old and I noticed that no solution has been posted by anyone.

can I keep a style while I am typing in Microsoft word?

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 09:36 AM PDT

I have been using Styles while preparing a report. What I found is that when I was using a specific style, for instance "Heading1" and press Enter, and then the the style of the new line, in which I would start to type, became "Normal". Is there any way that I can keep the previous style? For example, it is possible for me to do when I use PowerPoint (in which I use "tab" or "alt+tab" to change the level.


Search engine with Font Format specifics not working in Word (Subscription where I supposedly have latest updates)

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 09:25 AM PDT

This is ridiculous, I am trying to search a document, where I have columns set, for words that are in red font. So I select the first column, select advanced search, select Format in the search options, select Font and select red. When I look back at the document, the whole column just got turned into a red font format. I never clicked replace. This is a huge glitch. How do I fix this?

Macros disappear; not every time I close but often enough!

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 05:06 AM PDT

So the fact that my macros work fine  most of the time after reopening Word  and then suddenly drop out altogethe,r for no apparent reason is curious.  More so when you consider that other templated features like Quick Parts remain in tact after closing and reopening. 
I have copied the macro text out of Visual Basic so at least I have backup.
Its a problem that's been bugging me for years (over several versions of WOrd) and would be grateful if there is a simple solution!

Word 2013 crashes when trying to open file from internet

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 04:31 AM PDT

Hi all,

I am having lots of problems opening files from Outlook. Initially, files would open in protected mode, which was annoying and useless. As soon as I wanted to edit the file, I would click "enable editing" and word would crash. Then I disabled Protected mode for all internet / email files. Now whenever i try to open any word file from any email client, it crashes instantly. Even if I save the file, then through properties "unblock" the file, then try to open it, it still crashes. This basically makes word useless to me as I work from home, so I constantly need to use files "from the internet" (in otherwords, from my colleagues...)

What can I do to prevent this - it is making work impossible for me!

how can I install helvetica font?

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 01:49 AM PDT

I purchased office 2013 only to realise Helvetica is not pre-installed.

Where do I find and install Helvetica font for free? Preferrably free. If it has to be paid please give me the link too.

How do I then install it? Steps to install it.

How about Cambria and Calibri? where do I get these fonts? I do not have previous office installed. Only 2013 office. Will these fonts appear for all office apps-excel, word etc once installed?

Thanks in advance.

Copy exact fill color between shapes and table-cell or paragraph shading

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 01:18 AM PDT

I often need to match colors between of various document elements, including table cells, paragraph shading, and shapes. It's tedious to dig down to the RGB dialog dozens of times so I'm trying to automate it with VBA. However, I can consistently store-and-retrieve colors only between table cells and paragraphs. For shapes, it's always a crapshoot -- sometimes it works, other times I get gray or black, and it doesn't seem to matter which "direction," that is, whether trying to color a paragraph or table cell like an existing shape, or trying to color the shape to match a paragraph or table cell.

 

Clear as mud? Code snippets below:

 

Why do these always work....

 

      MyColor = oCell.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor

      oPara.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor = MyColor

 

      MyColor = oPara.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor

      oCell.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor = MyColor

 

but these only sometimes work?

 

      MyColor = oShape.Fill.ForeColor

      oPara.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor = MyColor

 

      MyColor = oPara.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor

      oShape.Fill.ForeColor = MyColor

 

      MyColor = oShape.Fill.ForeColor

      oCell.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor = MyColor

 

      MyColor = oCell.Shading.BackgroundPatternColor

      oShape.Fill.ForeColor = MyColor

 

Is there a better way to do this with VBA? These couplets are simplified, of course; in practice I have one macro to "get" the color (storing its value) and run another to apply it to a cell or paragraph or shape that I've selected.


Thanks for any clues.

How do you change the 'Tab after' value for the multi-level numbered list used in the standard Heading Styles?

Posted: 02 Oct 2013 01:03 AM PDT

I have a document with a number of heading styles that have a multi-level list associated with them.

When using some of the heading levels the text is too close to the automatically generated number

2.12 Heading Text

rather than

2.12    Heading Text

On previous versions of Word I have changed this by modifying the Numbering on the heading style. This would have given me the option to select different numbering styles to use and when selecting multi-level I could change all aspects of the list numbering.

In Word 2013 (or possibly earlier) the multi-level list has been split away from the other numbering styles and I can find no way of getting access to the tab to modify the way it works. I can see the value I want to change ('Tab after') in the style summary but can find no way to change it.

I have struggled with this for a couple of days now and no one else in the office can offer any suggestions (this is a team of experienced software engineers who have have over 100 years experience of Word between us!).

Can somebody please tell me how to do what was a relatively simple task in previous versions of this product.

Thank you.

setting a bullet after a tab stop

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 07:29 PM PDT

Hello,

I have a subtitle written with left alignment, after which a tab-stop takes the cursor to 96pt. At this point, I want to start a bullet list and write some text. However, when I attempt it, the bullet also includes the subtitle written on the left end apart from the text. Normally, I would create a table and write the subtitle in the first column and the bulleted list in the second column. However, I just trashed the table layout and moved to a tab-stop alignment layout. Wondering if I can get the bullet list after the tab stop. Suggestions will be much appreciated!

Thanks :)

Unable to open word documents from library

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 03:36 PM PDT

Hello, everyone.

I am unable to open Microsoft Office Word documents from my computer library and instead have to enter Microsoft Office Word 2010 in order to open the document. If I attempt to open one from any place in my library - documents, music, pictures, videos, downloaded, etcetera - Microsoft Office Word 2010 will appear to open but stop about halfway through the loading process. In other words I can see the top bar and a light blue background, but none of the functions work and a 'document image' or 'paper image' does not appear. I have been dealing with this issue for almost a year and now that I am doing more computer based work it has become a hassle so help in resolving this would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advanced to any responses.

Thanks for your help - I don't have the CD's to hand to check the versions
(I didn't perform either install myself) and this installation was a
reinstall over the previous installation (we exported the customisations,
reinstalled, then imported and published them) so can't check the help file
links but it sounds like it's most likely the cause of the problem.

I've just tried customising the lead form and we do indeed get blank tabs

when in use.

Controlling Image Width Using DPI in Word 2010

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 12:51 PM PDT

Word does not seem to respect the DPI property of screen shot images I create in my graphics program (SnagIt). In other programs, such as Adobe FrameMaker and MadCap Flare, I can decide ahead of time what size I want my images to be by setting the DPI in SnagIt. Then, when I import them, they appear with the width that corresponds to this basic formula: DPI = Pixels / Desired Width.

For instance, if I have an image that is 400 pixels wide, and I need it to appear as a 2 inch wide image in my document, I can set the DPI to 200 in my graphics software (200DPI = 400pixels/2").

In Word, the "100%" option under  Size and Position > Scale > Width seems to be 96 DPI. Is there a way I can get Word to simply use the DPI of the image so it displays at the width I'd expect, following the formula of DPI = Pixels / (Desired Width in Inches)?

document access problems-"location unavailable"

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 12:30 PM PDT

I have tried opening documents stored in 'My Documents' or 'Documents' from my desktop. I get the error message: "C:\Users\my name\Documents refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network., etc." I've tried the suggestions offered  and all checks out. The end of the message says "If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to another location." I did not adjust anything, move anything, and find this most frustrating. Any guidance on this would be greatly appreciated!

Envelopes don't print correctly

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 11:35 AM PDT

Using Word 2007 and Vista Professional and HP Printer. #10 Envelopes won't print the return address or send to address in the correct position. They print as if on an 8.5x11 sheet of paper in landscape mode with the send to address in the middle of the page and the return address in the upper left corner. Have checked and re-checked all settings but can't seem to fix. Has to be something simple as has worked fine in the past. Printing from a new Word doc and not saving the envelope to the document.

Table of Contents includes unwanted header

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 08:06 AM PDT

I created individual sections of a major document, and then added all of the sections into one document.  I inserted a Table of Contents, and the problem is that the header from Section 1 is on every page of the Table of Contents.  How can I have the headers only start at the beginning of the first section?

 

Thanks for any assistance!

Mail merge only produces one page of labels

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 08:04 AM PDT

I'm using Word 2007 with an Excel spreadsheet to aggregate some 6-up Avery labels.

When I go to Finish & Merge > Edit Individual Documents, and choose All Records, I only get the first page of labels in file named Labels11 (or whatever the latest iteration of my attempt is).

If I repeat the exercise and choose, instead of All Records, records 2-41, I still get only 1 page of labels; these include records 3, 10, 17, 24, 31 and 38.

How can I get the entire body of labels on multiple sheets?

Can I make hyperlinks portable?

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 07:33 AM PDT

I created a Word 2010 document with hyperlinks to references (PDFs) within the text.  I want to make this portable, so the hyperlinks work on whatever computer I (or our clients) use.  I have the Word document and the PDFs saved in the same folder.  I saved the folder on a jump drive, but when I plugged it in to a laptop, I needed to change each hyperlink in order for it to work.  Changing the hyperlink base didn't work.  So now that jump drive works on that specific laptop, but when plugged into another computer the links don't work...

Is there a way to make the links work regardless of what computer we're using?  Thanks!

Prompt for "Document Properties" on using "Save As"

Posted: 01 Oct 2013 03:03 AM PDT

I used Word 2000 for many years.  I generate a weekly newsletter that is developed from the previous week's one.  Each week I use "Save As" to convert the previous week's issue to this week's one. In Word 2000 I got a prompt for "Document Properties" in which I updated a couple of fields containing text (issue date, issue number etc) that appear in several places in the document, (page headers, titles, etc.)  

In Word 2013 I cannot find out how to do the same thing.  I have to go through several layers of menus and click targets to find the properties I want to update.  Often I forget to do this.  How do I set up the same automatic prompt for these properties?

Docx files are trying to open in Word (2010) and Wordpad at the same time (Win7)

Posted: 30 Sep 2013 11:20 PM PDT

My problem began with the recent Windows Update issue where KB2760411, KB2760588 and KB2760583 were being offered repeatedly after being installed. Microsoft fixed the problem quickly, but I was left with a the following issue involving .docx files:

 

Selecting a .docx file causes Word 2010 and Wordpad to attempt to open it at the same time. Since Word beats Wordpad by a split second, I get error messages from Word that I must click on to get them out of the way before I can view my document in Word 2010.  Word is the program that SHOULD be opening it.  Why Wordpad has suddenly decided to get in the act, I don't know.  The error messages are as follows:

 

1. "There was a problem sending the command to the program."

     The title bar has the document's name and path and is coming from Wordpad.

     I click OK and the next error box opens.

 

2. "The document C:(full path) is in use by another application and cannot be accessed."

     When I click "OK", both the message and WordPad disappear.

 

Meanwhile Word 2010 has finished loading the document behind all the error message boxes and once I close them, I can work on it.

 

In File Type Associations, the default program for .docx files is Microsoft Office Client Virtualization Handler.

 

In Default Programs, Wordpad isn't assigned the default for ANY file types, so I don't know why it's getting involved in opening the files.  I noted that Microsoft Office or Word aren't in the list of Default Programs, but I'm guessing it's supposed to be that way??

 

Does anyone have any ideas?

Change Word 2013 custom template menu to list not icons

Posted: 30 Sep 2013 09:01 PM PDT

Our company has quite a lot of custom templates which incorporate macros etc.  In Word 2003 we could change how the template menu appeared so that a briefer "List" style of menu appeared instead of the "Icon" style of menu.  This made it easier to select the required template from the variety available.

Now in Word 2013 its even worse the Icons are huge and you have to peddle down through 2 drag bars to get to what you want to find - time consuming and annoying.

Is there any way to change the Template menu so that "List" style is available (i.e. alphabetically listed by name rather than a huge icon type picture of what the template looks like).

 

NB  You do not offer the option below of choosing Office on Windows 9 - that is our system.

insert youtube video in word 2013 did not work

Posted: 30 Sep 2013 07:16 PM PDT

When Insert Video -> Youtube,  select a video and insert, in a newly created blank word 2013 document, nothing happened. However, if Insert Video -> Bing Video Search, even the video appears to be from youtube, a video is inserted as expected. The 3rd option (From a Video Embedded Code) works as well, albeit only a black square is insert, the video plays nonetheless.


The Word is part of Office 365 Home subscription installed on a 64-bit Windows Pro 8.1. Tried to re-install the Office in 64-bit version and the problem still exists.

Take a word document~email(choices XPS or PDF) editor needs it in .DOC format

Posted: 30 Sep 2013 06:19 PM PDT

I have 400 page book, I wrote in Word 2007. When I sent it to my editor, the email gives me two choices:
PDF or XPS.
I sent it PDF.
My editor had to convert it into a .DOC in order to be able to allow the editing process.

My question is how can I email my original book to her in .doc instead of PDF. I did figure out how to convert PDF to .DOC but I still don't understand how to email it. I guess not everyone has the ability to read a word document. I appreciate the help/

Changing the default format for lists in Word 2010

Posted: 30 Sep 2013 06:17 PM PDT

Is there a way to permanently kill the "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style" option in Word 2010? It's a format I never want, and I spend too much time "unfixing" lists. Each time I start a new list, Word automatically rechecks the box that eliminates the space between the paragraphs. Then it automatically indents the list .25 inch. I've tried modifying the Normal.dot files without any success. Is there a way to have a new list begin with the same paragraph spacing and the indentation as in the preceding paragraph (which is usually the Normal style)?

Programs Compatibility for Outlook 2003 and MS Suite 2007 Applications

Posted: 30 Sep 2013 04:02 PM PDT

After windows 7 was re-installed, I could no longer see my Outlook 2003 emails or the program in general.  Also, this guy re-installed MS office Suite 2007.  However, now I cannot see ALL of my former Word docs...only some of the older ones.

 

So, how can I see Outlook 2003 program and Word files.

 I have NOT installed Outlook 2007 yet because I did not know whether this would help or hurt the problem.

 

Thanks for any help you can offer.
