| Reopen all closed Word files at the exact pages Posted: 16 Oct 2013 02:59 PM PDT Hello. I am currently aware that on Office 2013 (on windows 7x64) has the ability to reopen a document and keep reading right where we left off ( http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/word-help/what-s-new-in-word-2013-HA102809597.aspx). However I was wondering whether via vba if it would be possible to save all the open files and the exact pages/view that they are and reopen them at a later stage (kind of like saving it as a session and reopen them on restarting a computer). I am aware of copying file location one by one but having to do so with dozens of document each and every time is a bit tedious. ( I have to restart my computer each time to connect to the internet wifi.) Thanking you Yours sincerely. |
| Keeping font consistent when filling in forms using controls Posted: 16 Oct 2013 02:46 PM PDT Hi I have a document and I want to take out some text and replace it with a form control and turn it into a template so users can just fill in the form and the rest is protected. I want them to always use a consistent font when they fill it in. However, when I inserted the control and formatted it to the font I want, then turned on protection and tried to fill in the form controls, I lost the font...I could not keep the fill in part with a consistent font. How can I do that? thank you for any assistance! Craig |

| Blue Screen while working in Word 2007/2010 Posted: 16 Oct 2013 12:06 PM PDT I have a 60 user office where we just upgraded about 3/4th of the machines to either Latitude E5530 (10) and Optiplex 3010's (34). Most users do not have a problem but there are a handful 2-3 Latitude users and another 3-4 Optiplex users who randomly get blue screens when working in Word (both 2007 and 2010). We've tried a bunch of things - repairing office, removing and reinstalling, SP's, removing profiles and reattaching to network, updating drives for all hardware, etc. and cannot come up with a fix. We've used a Blue Screen error viewer on the dump file and the issue seems to be associated with the file mrxsmb10.sys. If anyone has any ideas or have dealt with this issue in the past I'd love to hear what you did to correct or any ideas to try. |
| DISABLE Auto Toolboxes for Text Boxes and Pictures in Word2007 Posted: 16 Oct 2013 11:11 AM PDT Word2007 on Vista. If I pause during adding/editing text in a Word doc that has a text box or picture, a toolbox tab suddenly appears (highlighted, among the other tool categories (Insert, Page Layout, etc.) at the top of the screen), and I am immediately taken to the text box or picture, where it is highlighted for editing. This is EXTREMELY annoying and wastes an extraordinary amount of time. I have been all over Word and the internet for a solution. How do I turn off/disable this ridiculous auto function?! Thank you!! |
| 2013 Office home and student stopped working Posted: 16 Oct 2013 11:02 AM PDT Well my 2013 office home and student stopped working. When I try to open a word document I get a message that it ran into problem. I see that this a common problem in this forum. I am on a deadline for school. Of course, you can't actually talk to someone. There is no option to fix it. What do I do, besides not buy Microsoft. Where's the support? Seems to be a common problem with this product. I am not a tech nor should I be this quick. Ok, I'll step off my soapbox. How do I fix it? Remember I am not a tech. |

| Microsoft Word 2010 - Trying to create Avery Label 5195 merging Excel DB Information Automerge error plus... Posted: 16 Oct 2013 09:46 AM PDT Hello everyone,
I'm using Microsoft Word 2010 - Trying to create Avery Label 5195 merging Excel DB Information Automerge error plus...
Merging DB information seems so easy and yet it is not importing the DB information correctly. (i.e. Creates an Automerge field and will not import dollar amounts with $ sign and decimal setup correctly. It inputs the amount, such as 3.95, but then adds 00000000000002 to the end of it to show 3.9500000000000002. Have tried it several times with the same outcome.
Does anyone know how to fix this, or is it a bug in the software? The merge process seems pretty cut and dry, so I'm not sure what to do here.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Gary Callahan |
| Unable to print in Word 2013 Posted: 16 Oct 2013 09:15 AM PDT When I try to print with Word 2013 I get a pop up that asks Print to file, then an error message when I select the name of the document as the file I have already saved the document but it seems to want to save it again and then sends another pop up asking if I want to replace it because I already have a doc with the same name. |
| when opening program multiple windows appear and keep opening Posted: 16 Oct 2013 09:07 AM PDT When opening windows a blank document does not appear. Rather, multiple documents I have worked on recently rapidly open, one after another and then the program crashes. I have restarted and tried updates. Nothing is fixing it. ???? |
| Suggestion: Don't require multiple logins to use Word web app Posted: 16 Oct 2013 09:02 AM PDT Using the Word Web App is difficult because I have to log in more than once. Here's a description of what I experienced today. 1) I went to Office.com and clicked "Sign In" in the upper righthand corner. 2) I typed my email address into the box that appeared. A brief notification told me: "Account Found," and I was redirected to another page. 3) I was then prompted to sign in again, with the cursor in the "email" box, even though my email address had been pre-filled. I had to click on the password field, then type my password. 4) I was then presented with the "My Office" page. I wanted to work on a recent Word document. I searched for it, found it, and clicked on that document in the "Recent documents" section of the page. 5) I was then presented with yet another log in prompt, this time for SkyDrive. I typed my username and password and logged in again. 6) Finally, I was able to see the document and make the edits I needed to make. This process should be much simpler. In the competing Google Drive product, I am usually not prompted to log in at all, because Google remembers my sign in. |

| Heading 2 is not listing properly with other sections Posted: 15 Oct 2013 09:43 PM PDT I'm frustrated with a glitch in my Word Doc. I'm compiling a thesis and the Heading 2 is the only Heading that doesn't list in the desired order.
I'm going for the following
Heading 1 : 1
Heading 2 : 1.1
Heading 3 : 1.11
Heading 2 : 1.2
H1: 2
H2: 2.1
H3: 2.1.1.
H2: 2.1.
etc. etc.
What I'm getting is
H1: 1
H2: 1
H3: 1.1.1
H2: 2
H3: 1.1.2
H1: 2
H2: 3
I've tried highlighting all heading 2's and modifying to include numbering but it just doesn't seem to want to correlate with the rest of the headings. Please help.
Cheers,
P

| Word will not accept that I don't want a List Posted: 15 Oct 2013 08:37 PM PDT I have a paragraph that goes like this:
"(1) The Beggar, (2) the Knave, (3) the Artisan, (4) the Merchant, (5) the Noble, (6) the Knight, (7) the Doge, (8) the King, (9) the Emperor, (10) the Pope. The second contains the Muses and their Divine Leader: (11) Calliope, (12) Urania, (13) Terpsichore, (14) Erato, (15) Polyhymnia, (16) Thalia, (17) Melpomene, (18) Euterpe, (19) Clio, (20) Apollo. The third combines part of the Liberal Arts and Sciences with other departments of human learning, as follows: (21) Grammar, (22) Logic, (23) Rhetoric, (24) Geometry, (25) Arithmetic, (26) Music, (27) Poetry,(28) Philosophy, (29) Astrology, (30) Theology. The fourth denary completes the Liberal Arts and enumerates the Virtues: (31) Astronomy, (32) Chronology, (33) Cosmology, (34) Temperance, (35) Prudence, (36) Strength, (37) Justice; (38) Charity, (39) Hope, (40) Faith. The fifth and last denary presents the System of the Heavens (41) Moon, (42) Mercury, (43) Venus, (44) Sun, (45) Mars, (46) Jupiter, (47) Saturn, (48) A Eighth Sphere, (49) Primum Mobile, (50) First Cause."
And MS Word keeps setting it as a list item with (1) being the first number as a list. So I set it to not be a list, and it completely removes the 1. When I add it back, it reformats it as a list in an endless cycle of ruining my paragraph. How do I make it not do this?
EDIT: I got it to stop, but I still have no idea which setting was responsible for this heinous crime.

| Microsoft Word won't open Posted: 15 Oct 2013 07:23 PM PDT Whenever I try to open Word 2013, it gives an error message saying "We're sorry, but Word has run into an error that is preventing it from working correctly. Word will need to be closed as a result. Would you like us to repair now?" The text is followed by 3 options; Repair now, Help, and Close. I've tried the quick/online repair and that didn't work. I've uninstalled Finereader, and it still hasn't helped me. I've even updated the third party file that's been causing people issues and it hasn't worked. I am not sure where to find the NVIDIA driver so I can rename it, and I don't have Acrobat or Fun tools/Tobishia Book reader. I'm slightly frustrated because the technicians at the retail store where I bought the computer and the software are trying to get me to buy another copy of Office, when I already have the software installed. I've scanned through the posts on these forums and on the issues similar to mine I still seem to be having trouble. I would greatly appreciate if any of you could help me out.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post, Edward Jacobs |
| "We're sorry, but Word has run into an error that is preventing it from working correctly." Posted: 15 Oct 2013 06:53 PM PDT Just purchased Office 2013. Installation went fine, except Word won't open. Excel, Powerpoint, everything other Office program works fine, but I can't get Word to work. I have Windows 8. I have tried repairing Office from the Programs and Features menu (both quick and internet repair, both to no success). I have tried uninstalling and re-installing. It might be worth noting that none of the office programs worked until I uninstalled and then re-installed. Now only Word does not work. Have tried opening Word in safemode, no luck. Help please? Will attach an image of the error message .  |
| Equations in Word that are hyperlinks do not save italics or minus signs - how do I overcome/work around this? Posted: 15 Oct 2013 06:43 PM PDT An equation within a Word document that hyperlinks to a bookmark within the document does not save properly. When the document is re-opened, italics have vanished and minus signs appear as small hyphens.
This is extremely frustrating for teachers producing maths worksheets where questions hyperlink to answers. I can save to pdf to distribute to students, but any time I need to edit for a proof-reading change, I also have to comb through the whole document to re-italicize every pronumeral, and re-type every minus sign.
Anything you could do to speed up such a process in the presence of the problem would be most appreciated. If the problem itself can be fixed, even better. Thanks :) |

| Can't Open New Word Docs! Posted: 15 Oct 2013 05:14 PM PDT Hello, I am annoyed. I am able to create docs with my Word 2010 Starter program, but as of a couple months ago when somebody sends me a new Word Doc. (no idea what format, year etc.) I'm unable to view it - getting a message telling me there is no program to open it. Also, the "icon" in my files for these new docs look completely different - theyre orange and state "DOC file", where word docs that I create state "DOCX and look more like a "page". What do I need to do? Is there no upgrade for the Word Starter to allow us to also view later versions in Word? OR - do I have to buy the full product??? Hoping I dont have to go there!! Thanks for any help you can give!
Linda
