| Word 2013 problem - Word isn't your default program... Posted: 11 Oct 2013 03:20 PM PDT Hi, I have a problem with Word 2013. I just downloaded it yesterday. I opened it up, and it gave me this warning:  I clicked Yes and put a check next to everything except .rtf (Rich Text Document), and clicked Save. Now, my problem is, every time I close and reopen Word, it comes up with the same message box. How do I save the settings so it is the default program for everything except .rtf? (Dell Laptop, Windows 8, Office 2013) |
| page numbering not being retained Posted: 11 Oct 2013 02:34 PM PDT I am writing a book. It has about 200 pp now but will probably end up being over 300. Each chapter is a separate section, but I have it set for the numbering to be continuous through all chapters to the end. The number is not to be displayed on the first page of each chapter but in the header on other pages. I have done this procedure a hundred times on other books written in Office3, Office 7 and now Office 10, setting numbers in each chapter to pick up the number from the previous chapter (having a different header (empty) for the beginning of each chapter. But this time I can go through the and set this up. It all looks fine, then the next time I open the document, the numbering has gone back to starting over with each chapter. I have now reset the number a dozen times, but the numbering is not being retained. Please, what can I do? I am slowly going mad. |
| Word file that saved only the last phrase and the rest is gone Posted: 11 Oct 2013 01:10 PM PDT I'll try to be as neat as possible. I had this word file of about 15 pages, it's a document that grows every day since it's a translation so it's very precious for me. Nedless to say I hit the save button every 5 minutes or even less, so yes, I DID saved it before closing it. In fact, when I opened it after a few hours, the only thing I found was the last phrase I wrote - at the top of a new page - and all the other pages before it are gone. No sign of them. How is this possible???? Where are they? Is there any way to find them? I've already searched in all the temporary files and in the entire computer but nothing. I'm desperate. Please help!!! |
| Posted: 11 Oct 2013 12:18 PM PDT Can someone help please? URGENT! I had a Starter Pack Office 2010 on my Sony laptop when I bought it 2 or 3 years ago, and it has vanished.....None of the components will open, not just Word. Instead I get the 'Activate/Buy Online/Free Trial' box appearing. I need to read some documents my lawyer has sent over!! What do I do? |
| inserting mergfields with switches into and if then else statements Posted: 11 Oct 2013 12:14 PM PDT In Mailmerge, I'm trying to create and format a mergefield that returns an interger. If the mergefield result is less than 10, I want it to return cardinal text (e.g. two, three or four) and if the mergefield is greater than or equal to 10, I want it to return numerals, (e.g. 10, 11 or 12). I know that the switch for cardinal text is \* CardText. I'm unable to insert this logic into the field codes. Help? Thanks in advance. Peter |
| Potentially Corrupt Word Files Posted: 11 Oct 2013 10:35 AM PDT Although I'm unsure of exactly what to Google or search for, I have a Word file that seems to corrupt from time-to-time with no real common trigger. I've ensured that this document launched new from an established template that is widely used, so I know that there is no legacy issues from a document that has been passed around. I've also not copied in an elements from other documents that may have been corrupt, generating everything from within this new, clean version. The problem is that Word will all of a sudden have many lines (almost looks like page breaks) being repeated with no end in sight at half-inch intervals. I can still see an accurate word and page count on the tracker, but this content is no longer visible. Once this occurs, the screen starts to act sporadic at best. However, this can occur on a random page within the document, leaving everything that occurs ahead of it just fine. Once this issue happens, some other things I have noticed is the inability to insert a traditionally flashing cursor into the text and styles within the Paragraph Styles palette disappearing as the cursor hovers over it. I look forward to any advice that can be given. |
| Value of Next Character using Word VBA Posted: 11 Oct 2013 10:17 AM PDT I need to determine the value of next character from the insertion point. In my case, I am attempting to see if the next character is a space but I'd like to know how to do this for other values as well. TIA. |
| migrating Word 2010 into Word 2013 Posted: 11 Oct 2013 09:57 AM PDT I can use my Normal.dotm of Word 2010 in Word 2013 but the problem is that doing that way I would always have "compatibility mode" whenever I create a new docx in Word 2013 and I want to avoid that. I was able to migrate my macros and styles from Normal.dotm of Word 2010 to Normal.dotm of Word 2013 using the "Organize dialog" box Do you know a way to migrate also my many shortcuts that I had at the Normal.dotm of Word 2010. |
| header and footer disappear when copy/pasting from document with section breaks Posted: 11 Oct 2013 09:17 AM PDT Hi, Urgent need of help please! My organization is trying to create a global template for everyone to use. When someone copy/pastes from a document with section breaks into the template, the template's header and footer disappears on certain pages. Is there any way to tell the global template NOT to transfer over breaks from a copy/paste? Or is it possible to lock the header and footer fullproof to the point that copy/pasting breaks wont alter it? Essentially need a full-proof header footer for a template that wont EVER disappear, even from pasting line breaks. |
| Posted: 11 Oct 2013 08:35 AM PDT We use MS Word 2010 and are and have been experiencing difficulty with the tabs settings.
In particular when a tab is present in a document we are only able to move it once. To move it again we need to save, close and reopen the document. When we attempt to use the ruler to set or adjust the tab we do not get the pointer arrow, all we get is the double stacked box icon for setting the top and bottom margins.
We operate in a server environment. What can be done to fix this issue? Is it a global setting?
It is very frustrating and time comsuming for our staff.
Thank you,

| Why are my pictures being replaced? Posted: 11 Oct 2013 08:16 AM PDT I'm working on a 100+ page document that contains screenshots and icons inline with text. I'm having bizarre problems that I've never seen before in Word.
Several of my pictures are being replaced with other pictures. For example, I've added icons inline with text like this: "Click the View Details [pic of the View Details button] button."
In a lot of places in the document my [pic of the View Details button] has been replaced with [pic of a number icon].
Does anyone have clues as to why this is happening? I can fix them, but would like to prevent the cause of the problem if possible.

| Posted: 11 Oct 2013 07:12 AM PDT I am looking at upgrading some clients from Word 2003 to Word 2010 and I am having a problem with a custom menu that was created in Word 2003. I am using the same document template as was used in 2003 as there are many macros associated with that template. Each item on the custom menu calls a macro to do various functions. The problem in Word 2010 is that on the add-in tab on the ribbon, the menu name is displayed but not enabled so I cannot access any of the menu items. Any information on how to get the menu enabled would be appreciated. As an alternative, I can create new tabs and setup new menus and then just hide the add-ins tab. Thanks - Kevin |
| Office 2013 - Excel to Word Mail Merge will not retain formatting Posted: 11 Oct 2013 05:55 AM PDT Hi
Since upgrading to Office 2013 I'm having trouble with a mail merge document, in that previously it would retain formatting of percentages, currency figures etc, whereas now I get figures pulling through of for example '7.0000000000000007E-2' instead of '7%'. In earlier versions of Word you were able to select an option when picking the data source of 'MS Excel via DDE' which would solve any issues of this kind, but I can't see where to select this option in Word 2013. I'm aware I could re-write all the merge fields with switches to force the formatting but I'd rather not as there are quite a few and it would be time-consuming to re-edit all my other Word merge documents. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Joe |
| Posted: 11 Oct 2013 05:51 AM PDT Is there a way to put standard auto text for Word say on a shared drive, where all users could go and access it? So the purpose would be to have a central, standardized auto text file that could be periodically updated/maintained by one person, and then all users with Word could go into the location of the auto text on the shared drive and update their's periodically? |
| I want to change my name in Microsoft Word 2010, and possibly Microsoft Office as well! Posted: 11 Oct 2013 05:14 AM PDT I noticed that on some 'Word' 2010 documents I have written that when I right click on it and select 'Properties' and then click on 'Details' that my name appears in the 'Authors' and 'Last saved by' strands. On some other 'Word' documents the name is different or not there at all. WHat I want to know is this: can I change my name and details in all the many 'Word' documents quickly and easily and at the same time, AND can I change my name in Microsoft Office, so that any subsequent Office program I use like 'Word' 'Excel' or whatever will record whatever name I choose or just be blank? Any help gratefully appreciated! |

| Inserting an image of size 16* 16 in word add in is duplicated ? Posted: 11 Oct 2013 04:32 AM PDT In the Word Add In, I am adding an small tickmark image of size 16*16 in current selection range. It is inserting the tick image in current selection properly, but the issue is if we click on the Enter key after inserting the image, the image is shrink and duplicated. The code I have implemented is. MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(imageData); Image img = Image.FromStream(ms); Image image = new Bitmap(img, 16, 16); // convert to a gif so image background's transparency is not lost const string tempfile = "TickmarkImage.gif"; image.Save(tempfile); if (selection != null) { Range range = selection.Range;
//insert the image if (range != null) { range.Start = range.End; range.InsertParagraph(); selection.InlineShapes.AddPicture(tempfile, false, true, range);
}
//move down after adding the picture selection.MoveRight(); }
Any Help is highly appreciated.
Thanks, Mahesh K.

| Trouble reinstalling office home and student 2010 Posted: 10 Oct 2013 05:23 PM PDT Does anyone know why all of a sudden our Microsoft office home and student 2010 is having issues? We've had it on our computer for over a year and a half no problem. Then last week my daughter goes to use it and it won't open. So, we uninstall had some issues there finally got the program uninstalled and then reinstalled. Everything is fine EXCEPT the Word program it has the look of the old 2003 version. Is there a fix or patch we are missing that might correct this? I've about drove myself insane trying to get this straightened out. |
