Web Services access to MS-CRM by Java and http: post

Posted: 02 Jul 2004 10:40 AM PDT

Post directl to MS-CRM definitely won't work, but it is possible to write a .NET based Webservice using the MSCRM proxy .dll and then post to that. I've done it, but I'm wondering if someone has taken the time to make a standard exposure of all of the MS-CRM objects available so I don't have to start from scratch.

How do I label an item in a photograph in WORD?

does your default settings override your document settings?

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 03:00 PM PDT

I was told today that a word 2010 document I created needed to have a blank page removed.  This was page number 105.  However when I went back to look at the document I had only 79 pages in the document. 

I was able to contact the person you sent me the email and when we both opened the same word document (he sent me his copy) I had 79 pages and he had 105 pages.  After comparing some of the pages, it was determined that he had a paragraph spacing of 1.5 and I had single spacing. 

 

How can this happen?  I created the document with the single line spacing.  Why is his showing 1.5 line sacing.

 

Doesn't the document settings override each persons default settings?  If not how do we get it to do that?  We had a review on the version I created and all agreed that is was ready to be released.  However when our release group opened it they ended up having the format change and paragraphs that were speciffically formated to only be on a single page not split the page in the others computer.

 

Any help in getting this fixed would be appreciated.

Unable to copy/paste within Word 365 using ctrl-c and ctrl-v

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 02:48 PM PDT

Hello folks,

I recently purchased a subscription to Office 365 University and installed on a fresh Windows 7 installation.

I was able to copy and paste via the ctrl-c and ctrl-v keyboard shortcuts a day or two ago, but today it is not working.

I am able to copy and paste inside any other program, including other Office programs such as Excel.

Some hotkey combos which use the ctrl key work fine within Word, such as ctrl-w (which closes the current document), whereas other ctrl hotkey combos such as ctrl-S (save current document) do not work.

I tried rebooting, but that did not help. I also checked to see whether a task had hung a part of Word, but there were no stray Word processes in Task Manager when I was closed out of Word.

I've tried in brand new documents as well as existing ones.

I've never seen this behavior before and have been unable to locate a solution.

Any ideas?

How can I get my computer to recognize and delete a print job?

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 02:16 PM PDT

I have had windows 8 for a month and my printer still isn't working properly. 1) I loaded hp psi 1315 printer as the default printer. It printed in black only for a couple of weeks then I had trouble getting it to recognize paper was in the printer, next I had trouble when I wanted to delete the print job. One message "deleting" but nothing happened so I turned off the computer and unplugged the printer then rebooted to see if something would happen.  I have used troubleshooting and got it to delete the job but when I try the same method it doesn't respond. I don't know what else to do. Help and thanks!  

Shift-F9 Toggle Field Code hijacked by SnagIt

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 01:04 PM PDT

This is not a question but an observation. I have been unable to use Shift-F9 to toggle a field code for quite some time. I recently discovered that this was because of my installation of TechSmith's SnagIt program. Once I discovered the interference, it was easily fixed by changing the keyboard shortcut in Snagit. This is easy to do under Tools > Preferences.

The other F-key keyboard shortcut hijacked by SnagIt is Shift-F10.

Although I posted this in the Word forum, it applies to all Office programs, and for that matter all Windows programs.

BTW, I find Shift-F9 to be of limited use. It you have nested fields, it will not necessarily toggle all of the field, but just the outermost wrapping field. For more complex fields, I use the Alt-F9 toggle, remembering that with that one, it is necessary to toggle back.

"Open Recent File" not available in Quick Access Toolbar

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 12:48 PM PDT

How can I add "Open Recent File" to the Quick Access Toolbar?  I can add "Open File," but not Open Recent File.  I used to be able to do this in Office 2010.  Now, to open recent files, I need to click to the "File" tab to go 'backstage', then click on "Open".  That's annoying - Backstage view obscures my document and I shouldn't have to click so many times to do something so basic and simple.

I saw a comment on this thread: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-word/sorry-i-bought-office-2013/a3ecec67-e1f3-4fa7-9f65-2c700fe2aa95  where the commenter mentions that he adds "open recent file" to the QAT, but I think he uses Office 2013.

Please help me fix this.

Word docs won't print, but Excel docs do

issues running office 365

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 11:28 AM PDT

I have had Ofiice 365 running on my laptop for over a month, with the monthly purchase.  Yesterday all of my documents disappeared.  I rebooted the PC by removing the battery and am now able to see the documents in my folders tab but cannot get Word to open.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program, restarted and ran a "fix" several times, but still am not able to open anything using word and continue to receive an error message when I attempt to open Word.

This is extremely frustrating!!!  I am not very tech savvy so an "idiot's guide" for resolving this would be greatly appreciated!

How do I insert English letters with pronunciation symbols over the letters (like a Dictionary does)?

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 09:18 AM PDT

How do I insert English letters with pronunciation symbols over the letters (like a Dictionary does)?
(This is a valid question for any version of Word.)
I seek to show such "characters" as the "Short" and "Long" (small case or capital) vowels (a e i o u).
For instance, a short "a" in a dictionary is sometimes left as is, or, the "a" may have a curved line above it, like a parenthesis, only sideways.
Also, a long "i" is the letter with a straight line above it, like an underline, just above the letter.
Use the word "Italics" as an example, and even though we all (should) know that the first "I" should be a short "i", many mispronounce it "äee", like the Long "i".
(Obviously I know both the existence of and keyboard shortcut for accent and umlaut marks, so don't answer for those, please/thanks.)
Without going through the forced pronunciation ("äee"), which really misspells the word...

Insert special character in bibliography (also superscript)

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 08:59 AM PDT

Hi,
I am trying to insert special character in my bibliography and for now the only (temporary) solution is to have a wordpad document full of the special letters (mostly greek alphapbet) and copy/paste them in the bibliogrpahy manager (reference->Manage source->edit ...). I also want to use superscript in my document titles. I am unable to do so.

Do you have an a solution to the styling of my bibliographic references?

Thanks a lot for your help,

Only see tracked changes in Protected Mode

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 08:19 AM PDT

When a customer emails a Word 2010 document with tracked changes enabled (their changes are in read or underlined) I can only see their red line changes when I open the document in Protected Mode. If I Enable Editing, their red text reverts to black text and their underlines disappear.

I can't save the document with their red line changes and I cannot print the document.

How di I change this?

 

Thanks.

Is there a way to create a spreadsheet listing all the changes made to a Word document?

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 08:17 AM PDT

My organization has many different workbooks that we maintain in order to conduct classes.  The workbooks are just Word documents.  These workbooks must be updated periodically.  Sometimes the changes made are minor (formatting, spelling, etc.).  Sometimes the changes are major (new sections added).

When major changes are made we update the workbook and then send that to our translation team so the workbook can be translated. 

In order to keep track of all the changes we've made we've been tracking them in a centralized Excel spreadsheet where we note the page and item that has been modified.  We use this spreadsheet to determine if there have been enough minor or major changes made that merit sending the workbook, or multiple workbooks, to translations.

We're aware of the Track Changes feature in Word, as well as the ability to print Markups.  However, is there a way to output the differences of a Word Document to an Excel spreadsheet (or other alternative) so we don't have to manually add these changes to the spreadsheet?

Thanks!

List numbering with paragraph numbering that includes the previous heading(s) numbering

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 05:36 AM PDT

I am trying to create list numbering for paragraphs of text where the numbering used includes the heading numbers that the paragraph belongs to.

So, I would like my paragraphs to be numbered as follows:

1.  Main heading 1
1.a. paragraph of text relating to main heading 1
1.b. another paragraph of text relating to main heading 1
1.1 Sub Heading 2
1.1.a. paragraph of text relating to sub heading 1.1
1.1.b. another paragraph of text to sub heading 1.1
1.2 Another sub heading 2
1.2.a. paragraph of text relating to another sub heading 2
2.  Main heading 2
2.a paragraph of text relating to main heading 2

I can't find any way of achieving the numbering I want.  Is it possible to do?

If it's not possible to do, what is the best way of achieving unique paragraph numbers?

Thanks

Microsoft Office 2013, citations & bibliography section of word is disable

Note 2- I repaired office by using control panel/change microsoft office 2015. All progress was done with no error, then I received a meesage to reboot. But after it, the problem was not resolved.

Note 3- I do not want remove office and install it again, becase I lost my serial key.

Tables and cellmargins

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 04:18 AM PDT

Is there a difference in how tables work in Word 2007 and 2013?

I just discovered that if I insert a table in Word 2007 then the text in the table lines up with the text outside the table. The left table border is by default set to 0,19 cm outside the text (the default cellmargin)

If i insert a table in Word 2013 the table text is not aligned with the text outside the table instead the table border lines up with the text outside the table and the text in the table is moved 0,19 cm to the right (again default cell margin)

 

This means that the tables in old documents moves when you convert the document! If you have a design that for example says that tableborder must line up with the souronding text that design will fail when you upgrade the document.

 

Is there something you can do to avoid this behaviour?

A suspended process makes Word/Excel loading slow

Posted: 14 Oct 2013 02:18 AM PDT

Hello, 

I have an issue in my Environment.

What is happening (and how the problem can be reproduced):
When another process is suspended (using Process Explorer) opening a document with "double click" on the document file, the Word takes too long to open.
When I "resume" the suspended process, then the document opens.

When a process is suspended, the Word or Excel Software can be opened without problem. And then the File can be opened with File>Open.
The problem is happening only when a document is opened with "double click".

This happens in Outlook 2007. As tested, I am not having Problems in Outlook 2013.
This is not a local Problem. The same happens on other Machines too.

What could be the Problem? Is about some DLL's, other files or sub-processes that cannot be used because they are also used by the suspended Process?

Is this a known Problem? Can you help?
Or at least on what processes, files, threads should I look for to do a further investigation?

Thank you,
Marius.

Problem with Office in Virtual Machine in Mac

Posted: 13 Oct 2013 08:10 PM PDT

Hello,

The mystery: cannot type the @ symbol in a Word document, but can do in Excel and PowerPoint.


Technical details:

MacBook Pro notebook running on Mountain Lion (completely up to date)
Program installed (related to this case): VMware Fusion v6
Virtual machine: Windows 7 Enterprise  x64 (institutional copy)
Software: MS Office 2010 (institutional copy)

I reported this issue to VM Ware which resulted in various tests (including screen shots and all). They got me to try several things and replicated my keyboard and tested it out with identical programs. It worked with them, but it would not here. So, they suggested I contact MS and see what can be done.

Does anyone have any idea, please?

Thanks,

I cannot copy and paste into word from pdf

Posted: 13 Oct 2013 05:58 PM PDT

Hello Microsoft Office Word Community

I am in the middle of doing an important assignment for school and suddenly I cannot copy and paste (by control c, control p or right click) into my word document from a saved pdf. 

I have not installed any new software, I am using my Home & Student 2010 and running Windows 8, and a pdf I have used previously. Last week I was able to copy and paste from this pdf to a word document but this week it has stopped working.

I can copy from an email to my word clipboard and notepad, and I can copy and paste text that is already in word document.

I desperately need to be able to copy and paste from any pdf to this word document but can't.

Can someone please help me

Shortcut to Changing Page Layout Paragraph Spacing

Posted: 13 Oct 2013 04:29 PM PDT

Hello:

I am working with a document where I need to frequently change the way that a new paragraph behaves when I press the Enter key.  I use mainly 3 different "settings", and so far, I have to do it manually every time I want to change the setting.  So, in a large document where I have to switch back and forth between the 3 paragraph settings, I manually might have to do it 50 times.

For example, in Word 2010, I select the Page Layout tab, then in the Paragraph Section, I change the following settings:

For Heading 1, I want no indents and 12 point spacing after I press the enter key.

For computer code examples in my word document, I want no indents and no spacing before or after each line of code.

For narrative, I need a 10 point after I press enter, and also need a special first line indent of .5 inches.

Is there a way I can create some standard setting so all I need to do is place my cursor where I want the new setting to take place, and then click some kind of saved setting?  Doing this manually is getting a bit much.

Regards,

Rich Locus


Word2003: Auto Correct not saved, not capitalizing sentences

Posted: 13 Oct 2013 03:38 PM PDT

I am trying to help a long-distance friend with a problem. She's not very computer savvy and when she has a problem, she usually calls me. She lives far enough away that I can't just go there and try to figure out what's wrong.

She's using Word 2003 under Windows 7. She's set in her ways and upgrading really isn't an option for her.

She does medical transcription work and although these aren't huge issues, they're a constant annoyance.

She uses auto-correct quite a bit to save typing common names and phrases. Normally this works fine, but there's one specific case where it appears to refuse to save the definition. She wants it to auto-correct "...i" to "...I". In other words, an ellipse followed by a lower case "i" to an ellipse followed by an upper case "I". When she inputs this, it works fine until she closes Word. The next time she runs Word, it no longer remembers this definition. She has to re-enter it for it to take effect. However, when she re-enters it, she's told that the definition already exists and asked if she wants to replace it. She tells it to replace it, and then it works again, until she closes Word. Then the next time she runs Word, she has to re-enter it again. All other auto-correct entries are saved and work until she deletes or changes them, except for this one.

The second problem is that it refuses to capitalize the start of a new sentence if the previous one ends in a number, or an ellipse. For example;

back in 2008. when I
back in 2008... . when I
back in 2008...". when I

In all other cases, a period followed by a space causes the program to capitalize the next letter typed.

Does anyone have any idea what causes either of these behaviors and/or how to fix them?

Office 2003 doesn't work.

Posted: 13 Aug 2005 06:22 PM PDT

First off, unless you have a legal (genuine) copy of Microsoft Office, you are in violation of the End User
License Agreement (EULA). Essentially, this means that you are running Microsoft Office illegally (whether you
are having problems or not).

Second, Microsoft Office must be installed from a Microsoft Office CD. Without running the setup program on
the CD to install the software (whether or not you choose to run from the CD or run from your computer),
Microsoft Office will not run.

My suggestion, ask someone at work (i.e. your boss or network Administrator) about installing and running
Microsoft Office OR go out and purchase your own copy of Microsoft Office at a local retail store.

How do I install MS Office 97 on a computer running Windows XP?

On a computer with SP2 installed? SR2 tries to reinstall and update the HTML
parts of Office 97, I don't know of a way around that since SR2 doesn't allow
a "custom" install. Anyway, it sure failed for me, I installed Office 97 by
deselecting the HTML options and all the updates went well until I tried to
install SR2. I don't recall the errors now, it's been a while.

I need office 2000 small buisness product key, I lost mine

Posted: 10 Aug 2005 05:40 PM PDT

Hi Scott,

While MS no longer has replacement disks available for
Office 2000 support is still available for use and setup
of the product. Contact the Office support folks through
the numbers on http://microsoft.com/worldwide or http://support.microsoft.com

My computer recently had a bad power supply and fried the motherboard and all
data was not retrievable. Needless to say I had Office 2000 small buisness
loaded and lost that too and the real kicker is that I no longer have the
original 25 character product key to go along with my two disks so I can't
re-install. So unless someone can help me out I will have to re-purchase the
Office software and I really don't want to spend another $190.00.

Desperate to get my computer back to 100%
Thanks

Removal/Install Office 2000

This cd and the cd key work on every other computer except for the one im
having the problem with. If I had to guess there is probably something in
the registry from the previous install confusing it

debian sarge 2.6.11 kernel?

Posted: 02 Feb 2005 02:32 PM PST

John Hasler <gt.org> wrote in 

Hmmmm.... Are we both talking about the scary message that comes up when
you run make-kpkg? That message was pretty scary. It even said "I assume
you know what you are doing. Now that is scary.

I dunno. I was just assuming that the problem was with initrd/cramfs ...
whatever the heck it is. I think it's a good assumption, though, because
when I'm booting the 2.6.8 kernel it syas found "found cramfs" very early
in the boot messages. All I really know is that after installing the
kernel, my laptop wouldn't boot.

But I don't really know why it crashed because I'm blind and it crashed
before it fed any text to the serial port where the speech synthesizer is
connected. Nothing came out there.

This is indeed scary if you're blind because to go back to the old kernel,
you have to cursor odwn to the other kernel and the thing isn't talking yet
at that point. Picture yourself trying to recover from a kernel panic w/o a
monitor.

So maybe I was closer to geting the thing to work than I thought. When I
asked the Magic 8 ball if I should try again it said "Outlook good".

I'll have to think about it though. It's a lot of work and daisy (that's
her name) is working (more or less) at the moment.

I have a plip connection to the outside world so I do have an internet
connection even though I have no pcmcia. Downloaded emacspeak audio
desktop, an mp3 player, I'm all set eexcept for ethernet.

Samba and symlinks

You need to be clear just _how_ you are accessing the Samba shares from
Linux as they are not equivalent. Eg., smbmount is available only on
Linux and it "translates" Win behavior (or in this case, fails to) to
be more consistent with Linux filesystem behavior. Thus links will
show as links, not as the files they point to -- just as links are
treated for other Linux fs types. Links _may_ be followed when you
_access_ them with the 'follow symlinks' set in smb.conf, not when you
simply _list_ directory contents. This is why link names are usually
the same as the filename to provide a measure of transparency. The
link creator must provide this.
 

Can't remember about this one. In any case, your problem has to do
with smbmount -- if that's the way you are accessing the Samba share.
The server sends the same data over the wire (as it must to "conform"
to NB/CIFS). The smbmount code, otoh, _knows_ it's running on Linux
(since it only runs on Linux) and uses the data to be most consistent
with Linux fs behavior. The assumption being that this would also be
the most useful. Not so for your tastes.

Because you are following the link to _access_ the file the link points

smbclient is modeled on in some respects).
 

Linux is not Windows. The treatment of all sorts of filesystem objects
and attributes differs. It would be _inconsistent_ to have one part of
the filesystem tree on Linux behave in the standard Linux fashion and
some other portion comform to Windows behavior.

However from my client (also a Slackware box) I just see the symlinks

the Samba server would present the actual files that the symlinks point
to.

This is how smbmount is designed to behave. It is not designed to
behave as your stated wish to behave as a Windows box.

I may not be understanding your "problem" (would not be the first time
with my dense skull).

I also don't have Samba shares available or any Samba components loaded
on this machine I'm using, so can't do any quick tests to _see_ if I am
understanding your situation.

If you are using a gui client on your Linux box, I can't remember how
all of them handle this. Windows users are often bewildered by this
explict reminder of the distinction between links and files, especially
if they use the default setup that "hides" known filetype extensions.

If I'm completely offbase just s*&tcan this and tell me to go play with
my own toys.

To your other point, I've checked setting with both aumix and alsamixer,
used mpg123, mpg321, "play" from sox, whatever the desktop "CD player

other systems. They all worked (I didn't try forcing mplayer output)

I've had minor problems with speaker selection with 2.4 vs. 2.6 on

but no "doesn't work at all" issues previously.

I'll report either later tonight or tomorrow morning.

mount: special device dev/hda2 does not exist

Posted: 01 Feb 2005 09:56 PM PST

I'm not in FC3 right now, so I can't do an ls.

I can tell you that I replied to my own first post as soon as I found
how correct my syntax so that mount did what I intended it do do. I
didn't know the command I was looking for was:

[shell] mount -t vfat /dev/hda2 /mnt/hda2

I thought I'd tried that, but must've been mistaken. sorry 'bout that.

Yes, the problem is solved, I wasn't giving the command I thought I
was.

Try: SaX2 -l (which starts config in standard 640x480 vga)

And after selecting your monitor or one that closely matches check and/or
set proper horizontal and vertical frequency ranges. Although, I do not
know why yours works with startx from runlevel 3 and fails to work with
runlevel 5, unless there is something in your home dir that alters it.

Well, I fixed the problem, but unfortunately I don't really know how I
did it. I ended up installing the SELinux packages (policycoreutils and
selinux-policy-targeted), uninstalling the off-the-web 2.6 FC3 kernels,
and reinstalling an off-the-web FC3 kernel. That particular kernel booted.

My only guess is some weird coupling between the udev and SELinux
packages. Before I did the whole SELinux trick, I noticed after every
reboot (when I was looking at the system from a recovery CD), the /dev
directory lacked many of the devices (most notably the /dev/vc devices)
that exist on every other FC3 machine I have administered. I read a ton
about udev but could not find anything that would point me in the right
direction.

I ended up changing not a single thing with udev, but installed SELinux
and uninstalled and reinstalled the off-the-web kernel, and that worked
fine. I wish I knew more about what exactly happened, but that's as far
as I got with it.

Thanks for your time and the responses,

Jeff
