How about just typing an asterisk ('*') in place of the 'A'? Would that

Alternatively, trying using the Character Map utility (
http://tlt.its.psu.edu/suggestions/international/accents/charmap.html )
to find a character which looks better. Unicode does have a good looking
one ( http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/2605/index.htm ), and
Character Map would help you find it and copy it into your document.

You may want to try a different news client which knows about the
'supersede' [sic] facility, many do. AFAIK Thunderbird only knows about
'cancel' facility, so I wouldn't try with that. You could try Pan, if
it's available on Windows.

DEP closing Works

Posted: 10 Sep 2008 07:51 AM PDT

I'm having the same exact problem and also have a new HP Pavilion and also
spent an hour with technical support at HP. I have added the .exe file to
the DEP list and it is still doing it! I tried to download some updates for
Works 9 on the Microsoft download page and the link doesn't work. I don't
know if that is the answer or what to do. Any other ideas?

You can however host multiple SMTP domains on one or more exchange servers:

And if you requirements is to hide users from each domain from the other
domain that is also possible - search the net for hosted exchange.

Word will no longer allow me to make corrections, additions or changes to existing word documents.

I have MS Office H&S 2013 installed and am running Windows 8.1

I can make changes to Excel or PPT and previously had no problem with Word.  The only thing I did that I can think may have affected Word is that I changed the file name of one document.  I have many Word documents and can no longer make changes to any of them. 

Can anyone help on this?  Thanks...  richardft

"Something went wrong

We're sorry, we ran into a problem while looking for updates. Please check your network connection and try again later.

Need for a new Word feature regarding cross-references

Posted: 22 Mar 2014 12:48 PM PDT

Permit me to suggest adding a feature (to Word [I happen to use Word 2013]) regarding cross-references.

 

Here's the problem.

  1. I write a document that includes many (hundreds of) items (headings) that can be cross-referenced.
  2. I want to put a cross-reference into the document.
  3. I put the cursor in the place I want to put the cross-reference.
  4. I click on an icon for "Insert cross-references."
  5. Word presents a Cross-reference box, which shows the first few items (headings) available for me to select.
  6. Now "the awkwardness" ensues.
  7. ** I expand the box.
  8. ** I spend much effort and time scrolling to try to find the listing for the item I want.
  9. Then, I click on the item and click insert.

Very often, I can see - in the document itself - the item I am trying to locate via the above awkwardness.  So, …

Here's a possible new feature (that I and presumably other people) would find useful.  Let me describe the steps I would use (if the feature existed and were implemented in one way I can envision).

  1. I write a document that includes many (hundreds of) items (headings) that can be cross-referenced.
  2. I want to put a cross-reference into the document.
  3. I find the item (heading) to which I want the cross-reference to point.
  4. I right-click on the item.
  5. I see a (new) option (along with 'update field,' … 'font,' …) to generate a cross-reference.
  6. I select that new option.
  7. Word opens something similar to the current Cross-reference box.
  8. ** I see (as the only item, or as a highlighted item in my initial window into a list of items) the item I selected in step 4.
  9. ** I make any needed adjustments to "Insert reference to:", … "Insert as hyperlink:", … .
  10. ** I see choices of "Select insertion point" or "Cancel."
  11. ** I click "Select insertion point."
  12. ** I click on a place in the document.
  13. The Cross-reference box now offers choice of "Insert" or "Cancel."
  14. I click insert.

 There are other ways to implement such a feature, including via use of the clipboard.

 

Please consider …

* If you read this item, advocating that Microsoft implement such a feature.

* If you work for Microsoft, catalyzing implementation of such a feature.

Adding Local Save to QAT

How can I save "Local Open" to my QAT?

Word no longer allows multiple open documents

Posted: 22 Mar 2014 10:22 AM PDT

I often have multiple Word files open as I'm working.  The documents I'm not looking at are still available in tabs at the bottom of my screen (called a toolbar, I think), so I can just click on them and bring them right back up instead of going into my C drive and opening them all over again.


Yesterday, Word started closing the file I'm viewing if I open another.  That is, it won't keep the original file open in a tab any longer.  It just closes out or "replaces" my current file if I open a new one.


How do I fix this?  I've tried searching "options" and the "help" menu to no avail.

My version of Word, when I click on properties, is "10.0.3416."   If that makes any sense.

Word document keeps defaulting to the same page on opening

Word 2013 Crashes When Closing

Posted: 22 Mar 2014 09:12 AM PDT

I have Word 2013 installed as part of Office 2013 Professional Plus running on Windows 7 Professional 64bit with SP1. The issue described below happens on both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions with the latest updates and Service Packs installed. I spent several hours with Microsoft technicians the last two days who ran local and online repairs, and performed a complete manual uninstall/reinstall of the Office 2013 Professional Plus Suite. They also updated my video drivers and disabled various applications and services to see if there was any interaction. All to no avail. So here's the process and description of what happens.

1) Start Word and load a document or create a new one.

2) Use one of the apps from the Microsoft Store to define or look up a Word (I've demonstrated this with the Wikipedia, Miriam Webster Dictionary, and the Bing Dictionary apps).

3) Close out the app.

4) Save your document.

5) Close Word...it will crash. It stops responding before it closes and sometimes restarts.

Notes:

1) If you don't close the app in step 3 Word will exit normally.

2) If you do close the app but don't save the document before trying to close Word you will get a dialog asking if you wand to save your document or not (this happens even if you have made no changes to the document). Select either choice and Word continues to close normally. If you select 'save' it appears the document is truly saved.

After many hours of trouble shooting, the Microsoft technician working with me concluded this behavior is likely a bug of some sort. He said he had not seen anything like it until now. He also offered that if it is it might be addressed in a future update. In the meantime has anyone else seen this behavior? I have a work around of sorts but I do worry about loosing a lot of work by accident.

How do I edit a checklist in Microsoft WORD 2010? I know how to create one, but when I try to edit it I get a message that says, "this modification is not allowed because the selection is locked."

Posted: 22 Mar 2014 07:26 AM PDT

Never mind all... I'm really sorry about this question I figured it out there was never actually a problem to begin with. I'm just an idiot. :P

Word 2013 - Whoever wrote this software needs their backside kicking

Posted: 22 Mar 2014 05:46 AM PDT

Word 2013 - Whoever wrote this software needs their backside kicking:

I appreciate if you are a software writer that you need to occupy your time to qualify your salary, but to change menu's and layouts for the sake of it is a waste of time and money for your customers.

Do these software writers ever consider the end user?  The simple answer is NO THEY DON'T.

Windows XP was the best operating system by far, and in my opinion Office 2003 was a well thought out product, unlike Office 2013 which is "cack" to navigate and use.

Look at it this way software writers.  What if Motor manufacturers decided to put the headlight switch in the boot instead of the dashboard.  You would spend a day or so looking for the light switch in the most obvious place, only to frustrating look in the car's manual and look in the index for "HEADLAMP SWITCH".  The headlamp switch is now located in the boot.

You may find the above example absurd, but so is your latest version of Office 2013.

In future your software writers should spend more time speaking to the end user before releasing software that is very frustrating and unfriendly to use.

Counting lines via VBA

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 11:36 PM PDT

Hi,

I have a document that I use to temporary hold a list of information I collect from the Internet.

I have a Macro to place the information from the Clipboard to the Document.

After the Information is Pasted to the Document, I change the Font, but I would like to know the number of lines.

Here is a list of things I would like to experiment with if they are possible...

     1. Count the total number of lines which just have a "Carriage Return" and no text?
     2. Count the total number of lines in a document ie 'DOCPROPERTY Lines'?
     3. Count the number of lines which has text and are not just "Carriage Returns" ie 1 and 2?
     4. Count all the times a word is found within a Document ie 'GOLD'?

Thank you in advance,

Neil

Saved DOCX File, rebooted, when I Opened the File again, no data visible

Yesterday I saved the file, rebooted, and when I re-opened the file, the scroll bar appears to be loading the entire file, but there is no data visible.

The file size in File Explorer shows it should contain all the data, but it's just blank pages.

This is a lot of work and I don't want to have to re-do the last couple weeks worth of effort...

Removing unnecessary options of the change picture menu

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 04:56 PM PDT

Hi there,

I upgraded to Office 2013 few weeks ago, so I am still trying to get familiar with the features. Previously, I used the versions 2007 and 2003.

If I am working with a document and I use the commands Insert => Pictures => the program opens the last folder I used to insert pictures or Libraries => Documents, etc. This is how it always worked and it is perfect. But, if I select a picture in my document and use the command Change Picture => the program opens a menu with 3 options.

I know that I can use the first option and browse for the file, but in this way, I need to perform an extra step for each picture. I wrote a technical e-book with 400 pages full of pictures. For contract reasons, I need to replace all the 500 pictures
Is there a way to set the Change Picture menu identical to the Insert Picture menu (this means just going to the last used menu, without Bing or Office.com)
Thank you in advance,

Pat

Select all paragraphs with the same paragraph parameters

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 03:23 PM PDT

I have a bunch of bulletted paragraphs with different indentations, but otherwise identical.  The paragraphs style is not a named style, it's simply copied from an Outlook Journal item.  (The style for all bullet items shows as "Normal +10pt").  I would like to select all bullets of indent level "n" and apply Heading "n" style, where n = 1, 2, ... .  Can I do this without manually selecting each paragraph individually?  If I select a paragraph of a given indentation level and right click the style in the style pane, I have the option to "Select all 12 instances", but that selects all text.  Admittedly, 12 instances is not a lot, but it's easy to lose track of the indentation levels when trying to do this manually, one paragraph at a time.

If you go to Internet Options, Setting, and View Objects you should see the

it, I think it will then prompt you to redownload.
The version I have is 9.2.3.135 but I assume this depends on your server

Data migration tool does not export any data?

Posted: 17 Nov 2004 08:53 AM PST

Hi Nery,
Some further suggestions:

A: Have you checked the Data Migration Log? It should provide you with
fairly detailed info of what happened. You will at least see if the Migration
tool tried to migrate your data.
B: The Owning User must be set on all objects to a valid CRM user. Ensure
that the Owning User for each user has a current licence.
C: Check the cdf_EntityMigrationInfo table to see that the Entities you're
trying to migrate have a MigrationCode of 1.
D: Use the DMF DetailDataPlanning excel spreadsheet to ensure that all
required columns are populated.
E: If trying to migrate Product Information, ensure that you migrate Uom,
UomSchedule, PriceList and PriceListProduct info aswell.

Hope this helps,
Richie

Port 25 is only used by Exchange itself. The communication between the Echange

The communication between the router & exchange is local to the machine and will

Hi,

On a workstation only one user can work with the Sales for Outlook
client. The user should also have administrative rights on his or her

the update that is available at the Microsoft CRM download area.

To remove the SFO client, first log on with the user id you used when
installing the SFO.

If that doesn't help, or something is wrong with the user profile, you
have to manually clean the registry from CRM entries. This way you will
be able to reinstall the SFO client. Search for entries containing CRM.
And manually remove them. Be very carefull although this could mess-up
your workstation really bad.(Or just reinstall the PC). Also follow
instruction from the last chapter (appendix) of the Implementation Guide.

Any idea ??

Get error when attempting to access CRM

Posted: 16 Nov 2004 10:15 PM PST

Thanks for the reply Rob.

No, I left the security settings along. Scripts can run. When I followed you
suggestion and specified "loader.aspx" in the URL the page set up the frames
and the rendered the bar along the bottom of the screen (without the buttons)
and the main pane contained a whole lot of html and javascript code. The
pane on the left where the Home and Settings tabs normally appear contained a
HTTP-404 error. Clicking on the bar at the top of the pane, where the
username is displayed, resulted in the user settings window opening but again
it contained only html and javascript code.

I checked the settings on the browser and the CRM site is identified as
being in the intranet zone. This setting pretty much allowed everything but
even enabling disabled setting changed nothing.

Change the DB that the crm implementation hits to a cname

My guess is that answer is NO. However, if it's that important to find out for
sure, I suggest you contact MBS and ask them.

Cannot add a field I want.

Mapping from Opp to Lead is worthless. In fact, the product does not ship with
this mapping so if it's there, someone added it.

One option you have is to modify the values in the Status picklist. The
existing values are only there by default and you can modify them. The thing to
look out for though is that Status is a "dependent" picklist on the State. So
the mapping may not be as straight forward. Plus, when you convert the lead,
the State will change and so will the Status so the mapping may bring across the
"new" status value and not the one you want.

You may have been able to accomplish the same effect though with the supplied
Status on the Opp. As long as the values mapped to the ones in your "custom"
picklist, then they would map OK.

The Sales VP here mucked things up a bit before I arrived. You are right.
The statuscode was already on the Lead form. It has a picklist. Statuscode
was also added to the Opportunity form but with a DIFFERENT picklist. I am
sure there are better ways to solve this but I went with a simple fix to add
to the Lead form a custom fields called User Type, add to the Opp form a
custom fields called User Type, give them both the same picklists, and map
the Lead User Type to the Opp User Type. ( I don't understand mapping from
Opp to Lead. Why map backwards?) Thanks Matt. Any comments are greatly
appreciated.

business units and data ownership

Posted: 16 Nov 2004 01:09 PM PST

Well, depending on the number of records, you do have some options.

The easiest (thouhg most time consuming) it to assign the objects to a different
user and then back to the original user. This would correct the
owningbusnessunit information. As I said though, this can be time consuming. A
way to do this quicker (assuming you have a user that doesn't own any data) is
to use the Assign Records action from the User maintennace. This will assign
all objets owned by a user to another user in the system. You could use this
twice to correct all records.

Other options include writing some SDK code to correct the data (most likely
doing similar updates via Assign). Or contacting support to see what they
recommend. They may have a fix for this.

Unable to print  delivery and return addresses in correct positions on envelope (both #6 and #10). Does print delivery address upper middle of envelope and down approx. 1/2 inch. Does not print return address. Does not respond to manual repositioning using Font options. Manual envelope input to Brother MFC7860DW.This is not an envelope feed orientation problem. Same problem populating the address fields either from Word document or from direct input on  Envelope/Labels screen. Installed MFC August 2013 and had no problems until Feb. 2014.   Running Windows 8.1 64 bit, Office 2013 Home & Business. 

Brother Tech Support says it is an MS issue. Their Support page says that MFC unit  is 8.1 compatible.

Word has stopped working

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 02:01 PM PDT

Text getting cut off and not showing in Print View, but will print correctly and show when Paragraph Marks/hidden format symbols are showing

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 12:25 PM PDT

I have a document that is being exported from a browser based database to Word.  I am using Word 2010.  The document has tables nested within tables.  When I look at the bottom of the page in Print Layout, the text looks like it is cut off.  If I turn on the paragraph and hidden character symbols, the text displays correctly.  If I print it the text displays correctly.  If I look at it in Web Layout or in Outline Mode, the text displays correctly.

The challenge is that the document then gets uploaded in an electronic documentation system where the document is often looked at electronically on the screen.  Print Layout view is the typical view clients are used to and they don't like to see the paragraph/hidden characters symbols.  In Web Layout and Outline Mode, headers, footers, etc aren't visible so that won't work for the client.

Is there a setting such that this text is visible in the Print Layout mode without the paragragh and hidden character symbols.

The external and internal table are set to break across the page.  In File/Options/Advanced/Layout Options, the "don't break wrapped tables across pages" is unchecked.  Also under Show Document content the setting "show drawings and text boxes on screen" is checked.

Any other idea?  I figure it is some sort of setting/checkbox deep in the bowels of Word that is causing this.

Thanks.

lost characters on Insert Symbol menu

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 12:17 PM PDT

When I used to go to Insert > Symbol > More Symbols and selected a font like Calibri, the Symbols tab on the menu would show a really large number of possibilities, with a drop-down on the right-hand side to select "Greek" or "Mathematical Operators" and such.  

Now somehow, the right-side drop down is gone, and the available character set for insertion is small, and has, for example, no Greek and no math. 

How do I get back to the way things used to be?

The picture below shows the totality of the available Calibri glyphs now.

How to define a paragraph style that includes information icon?

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 09:13 AM PDT

Hi all,

I'd like to create a paragraph style for informational messages that is indented and includes an information icon anchored to the message's paragraph.  How can that be done?

Currently, I have to paste the information image into the document, resize it, set its text wrapping to "Through" (right-click on image\Wrap Text\Through), then manually use the mouse to anchor it to the message paragraph, which is a lot of work.  Here's what it looks like when editing:

How do I define this paragraph, including the information icon, as a style?

Keyboard shortcut to apply a specific custom style?

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 08:46 AM PDT

Hi all,

I want a way to apply a particular custom style via a single keyboard shortcut.

I've already tried adding a shortcut to invoke Format\Style..., but then I have to type the style name (called "Inline code").  That takes just too long, as I have many, many spots in my document where I want to apply the style.

Is there a way to assign a single keyboard shortcut to assign a particular custom style so that the style is applied with a single action/keystroke?

Adding New Heading Levels

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 08:41 AM PDT

Word has 9 Heading levels. Is it possible to create more heading levels that will be pulled into the TOC when you generate it? I have a Heading Level 7 that is used for the Appendix sections and need to add sub heading levels within it. So Appendix C is Heading Level 7. Now want to add C.1, C.1.1, C1.1.1, etc. to nest under the Appendix C heading but the other heading levels are already being used for other Heading styles.

Does anyone have a solution?

Thanks ahead!

VBA Word Field Codes

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 05:08 AM PDT

I am attempting to define a number of custom built field codes and assign values to them.

My attempt is ...

  Dim strPropertyName As String
  Dim strPropertyValue As String
 
  strPropertyName = "ProjectName"
  strPropertyValue = "My Special Project"
   
  ActiveDocument.CustomDocumentProperties.Add Name:=strPropertyName, LinkToContent:=False, Value:=strPropertyValue

However,this creates a run-time error with the message "The index into the specified collection is out of bounds."

What am I doing wrong?

The final solution will capture the values in a UserForm and write them to a table in a Word document.

no longer able to open docx files

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 03:17 AM PDT

I use Word 2003 and have always been able to open docx files emailed to me. Usually I get a dialogue box warning me that some features will not be available, I click OK and the file opens. 

As of today I can no longer open any of the docx files I have saved to my laptop, even tho I have previously opened and worked on them without any trouble. I have tried going back to the original emails and downloading them again but no luck there. 

My Word 2003 files all open fine, just the newer Word versions have suddenly become incompatible.

Maybe this is a coincidence but there were a bunch of Windows "updates" downloaded two days ago.

Any idea what's going on here?

Changing Fonts

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 03:00 AM PDT

I regularly receive long Word documents from which I have to make several hard copies.  Unfortunately these come in a large font with large line spacing and use masses of paper and ink when printed.  The sender has repeatedly refused to alter her font and spacing and I wonder if there is a simple way of altering fonts, font size and spacing in the complete document in one go.

I know it can be done one page at a time but that is impractical for these long docs.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Linking excel data into a word userfrom listbox

Posted: 21 Mar 2014 02:11 AM PDT

Hi, a warning beforehand, I am using office 2003, but i can upgrade to 2010 if that makes things easier to solve.

I am trying to link an excel spreadsheet with a word userform listbox. I'm very knew to VBA so i will need a bit of help with it but here is what i would like to do:

  • I have a form in word with various text boxes.
  • When someone opens the form i would like a userform with a listbox to appear
  • From the list box i would like a list of names to dropdown (these names are on column 1 in an excel spreadsheet)
  • When they choose a name and click an "OK" command button i would like the textboxes on the form to autofill with information from the spreadsheet that correspond to the chosen name.

for example if "Dave" was selected, text box 1 on the form would fill in the name, box 2 the start date, box 3 the annual leave remaining etc, just for Dave:

Name Start Date Annual Leave Remaining (days) Annual Leave entitlement (days)
Dave 09/01/10 12 32
John 08/02/09 3 34
Bobby C 07/03/08 9 32
  • I would like to just have the names in the list box, i would like the rest of it to link but not be shown in the listbox of the userform
  • Finally, if someone updates the excel spreadsheet then I would like this to update the information that gets populated into the textboxes from the userform.

i have the form finished, i the excel spreadsheet, i know how to create a userform. not sure how to get it to pop-up when the document is opened and the rest remains a mystery to me. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Fonts garbled on opening documents created in previous versions of Word

AutoCorrect in Microsoft Word 2010

Posted: 20 Mar 2014 10:59 PM PDT

Apologies if this has been asked before, but I would like to know if it is possbile to have Word automatically apply the AutoCorrect rules to a batch of text copied into it? For instance, if I copy something like, "Teh sentance is intentionally mispeled " into Word, is there a way for Word to automatically correct that to "The sentence is intentionally misspelled", without drawing a bunch of red squiggly lines?

Strange copy and paste issue

Posted: 20 Mar 2014 03:33 PM PDT

I'm having an issue with the copy and paste functions with regard to Microsoft Office 2007 on an XP machine. Recently, I have been experiencing issues pasting tables from MS Excel 2007 to MS Word 2007. When pasting in Word using CTRL + V, a very small icon appears as an inserted image (it appears to be a palm tree). When I delete the icon and try the CTRL + C, CTRL + V functions again, the table pastes correctly.

Just want to see if anyone has had experience with this issue... copy paste eventually works on the second try, but I don't understand what's happening with this island icon thing (maybe its an easier egg and I've won some sort of prize???)
