Word 2013 & Address book

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 03:07 PM PDT

Is the only option for an address book/contact list in Word 2013 going to be OutlooK? I don't want to do a mail merge, I just type some envelopes from my contacts list. Very frustrating!

MathAutoCorrect not fully functional outside equation editor.

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 03:02 PM PDT

Hello there!

After messing around a while with the above mentioned feature I came to the conclusion that it's only working as intended in the equation editor. I don't know if it's an issue or just a not fully finished feature yet, but I thought I'd share my opinion in hopes of it will get updated in the future.

According to this page you can do nearly anything only with your keyboard using some given rules and Word will turn what you entered into mathematical formulas. (like instead off finding the root on the equation editor tab you can just enter \sqrt(2) )

According to my experiences if you are trying to do this outside of the equation editor (so just entering a plain text) after typing "\sqrt" and entering the first " ( " Word will immediately enter the symbol of square root (the same as in Insert > Symbol) and put the rest simply after that. So the number won't be under the upper line of the squareroot symbol only right after that.  (√a instead of √a)

This doesn't happen while using equation editor though.

Unable to change the language in a document's Normal style

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 12:53 PM PDT

I have inherited a set of documents that have come from who knows where; maybe upgrades from Word 6, for all I know. They all have the language setting on Normal style to be (Asian) Korean. This is a Windows 7 computer running Office 2010, though I had the same problem when it was Windows XP running Office 2007 (but the problem was not my direct responsibility then).

New documents created on my computer do not have the Language set this way, so it's not my computer. I have looked at the language properties for Windows, for Office, and for Word, and on none of them is Korean even an option. The language is not installed or enabled on my computer. (I tried changing the language from English to English anyway, just to be sure. It had no effect.)

I tried setting the language at a paragraph level using the Review > Language > Proofing option. I select English, but it has no effect on the paragraph. I also tried Control-A and just setting everything in the document but that had no effect.

I tried set the language at a style level using the Modify command in the Styles pane; no effect. The language of the style stays (Asian) Korean. (And if I can't change it, I can't use the Save Style as Current Paragraph option.)

I tried to reset the language with VBA by directly setting LanguageID in both an affected paragraph and in the style. No effect. The language of the style stays (Asian) Korean. 

I suspect that the only reason the paragraphs are even readable is because the language isn't installed, and the software defaults to the existing language.

How do I remove a language that isn't installed? How do I clear it from the Normal style (which is special anyway)?

I do not have administrator privileges on this machine, so if the answer requires a change to the registry, I will have to have someone else do it.

EDIT: Documents are old, so this is in Compatibility mode, which might be significant. And I just noticed that the date might cause some people to think this isn't a real problem, but it is.

A different macro by someone better than I am did change the language of the style, but now I have lingering (Asian) hanging around. I can certainly understand that would be there if I had a multiple language computer, but I don't. So I guess part of this has to be, how do I make it stop showing that information? How do I make it think that it's all monolingual (or at least, all Latin alphabets)?

Thanks.

Word 2013 Crash on Insert Cross-reference

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 12:00 PM PDT

Hello

I am using Office 2013 Home and Student on Windows 7 Home Basic. I have been using it without any problems for about two years. Now I find that when I try to insert a cross-reference, Word crashes.

When I click the "Cross-reference" button in the "References" ribbon, the "Cross-reference" window appears and so does the spinning wheel on the mouse pointer. The program stays in this state and does not seem to recover. When I click the top right corner of either the "Cross-reference" window or the main Word window, I get the "Microsoft Word is not responding" window, and I choose to "Close the program".

The problem happens with, e.g., a 70 page document, and it also happens with a new, blank document.

I have tried to repair Office 2013. The result was that the cross-reference function was disabled. Then I read somewhere that to bring back the cross-reference function I would have to uninstall and reinstall Office, which I did. This brought back the cross-reference function but did not fix the original problem.

I would appreciate any help!

Regards,

Paulo.

Missing name tags after merge

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 11:19 AM PDT

Hello!

I recently did a mail merge for name tags for an event. Everything seemed to be in order, but I noticed I was missing quite a few name tags. After doing a comparison of the merged name tags in the Word document with the original spreadsheet, I noticed a pattern that every seventh name in the spreadsheet was missing from the merged document.

The name tag sheets were Avery-brand and each sheet was six name tags, so the first sheet would have the first six names, then the seventh name would be skipped, and the next sheet would start with the eighth name. I've now confirmed this to happen in multiple documents with the standard Avery template for these name tags. Any ideas to help solve this mystery would be very appreciated! 

Are Styles supported in Office for iPad

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 10:08 AM PDT

I have been poking around and I can't figure out if Styles are implemented in Word for the iPad. If I create a document on my computer using styles, they appear properly in the document on the iPad, but I can't find any option to quickly select different styles when I am creating the document on the iPad.

Have Styles been implemented on the iPad?

Why does my document have a new section when there is no section break

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 09:50 AM PDT

As I was scrolling through the headers and footers of a document, I noticed that there were a total of 6 sections when there only should have been 4. I tracked down the locations of the two nefarious section breaks only to discover that there were no section breaks, but in header and footer view, I can see that the section has changed. Any idea why that's happened, and what I can do to bring the document back to a total of 4 sections? I do have Show/Hide enabled, and I don't see any section break markers to delete.

Office 365 account and iPad

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 08:30 AM PDT

I was interested to try out the new Office apps on my iPad (the separate Word, Excel, and PowerPoint apps) and downloaded all three. I signed in with my account, which I know is bound to a real Office 365 Small Business Premium subscription which has not expired, on Word for iPad and quickly found that I could not edit documents. I felt nearly positive that these conditions meet all requirements to do this, so I've come here to ask for advice. 

If it should happen to matter, I also was unable to sign in to support with the account bound to the Office 365 subscription. That account is one of the *.onmicrosoft.com accounts and was not allowed to sign in. I was told it was not a valid account. But my primary issue is with editing on the iPad.

I'm trying to lock the header and footer on a Word document so it can't be accessed or changed

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 08:08 AM PDT

I am making our company letterhead document for the sales team to use. I want to lock the header and footer--to the point that nothing happens when they click on it. I looked around online and was able to do this about two weeks ago. Now I can't find the same forum that explained how to do it. I've tried using the "Restrict Editing" feature and it doesn't do exactly what I want it to. Can anyone help!?

Why is the pound-sign (#) not acceptible in Word 2010 merge field output now?

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 07:28 AM PDT

Background:  I generate a lot of merge-output documents to file with Court.  To automate the process, I have a macro that works with a line of "hidden" merge field information at the top of each document.  This process works just fine, and has for years, but I've found something odd after transitioning from Word 2000 to Word 2010.

Example:  Let's say the merge creates a batch of Orders that refer to a Court-assigned document number.  The Case Number and Document Number are pulled from a dataset extracted from our database.

So, a sample of the "hidden" text (it's actually formatted in a 1-point font, color set to white - the macro I run on the merge output looks for it to generate the file name, and no one else ever sees it - very handy!) might look like:

{Mergefield Printed_Case_Number} Order for Whatever Doc #{Mergefield Doc}

In Word 2000, after running the merge and then running the "shredder" macro (it breaks the parent document into child documents, each with a unique filename, and sticks them in a specific output folder - this works just FINE), I might end up with the following hypothetical Word documents:

01-23456-A Order for Whatever Doc #10.doc

02-34567-B Order for Whatever Doc #12.doc

No problem whatsoever, everything is as it should be, and the file names are precisely what I want.  This is how everything has work until I migrated to Word 2010.

Now, we try it under Word 2010...

I run the merge, it works fine.  I go to run the "shredder" macro, and Word outputs the files, same as normal EXCEPT:  it truncates everything after the # and does not give the file an extension of ANY kind!  I end up with:

01-23456-A Order for Whatever Doc

02-34567-B Order for Whatever Doc

If I look in the macro's output folder, that's exactly how they appear, but Windows just has "file" as the file type - not doc, docx, anything!

If I remove the # from the string that generates the file name during the "shredder" operation, everybody's happy - I get normal Word files, with extensions and everything.  I even tried formatting the {Mergefield Doc} with a format painter as {Mergefield Doc \# "'#'0000"}.

The question that comes out of all this is:  is # now some sort of Word 2010-specific "reserved" character?

If so, is there some setting to tell Word to keep its hands off the # in file names? 

Bear in mind, I've never had this problem pre-Word 2010, and it's not a Windows reserved character - you could name a file ###.### and Windows won't care.

Is it essential that I have the # in the file names?  No, (I've already stripped it out of the problemmatic merge document) - I just don't care for Word basically saying "No, and it's because I said so!" without some kind of rational explanation.

Is it some new(ish) auto-correct thing I can turn off?

Thoughts?

Thanks for any assistance folks!

Trouble with fillable forms in Word

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 06:42 AM PDT

Hi!

I've created a fillable form in Word but it's not working as I want it to. 

When people fill it in and send it to me, sometimes, the text in the forms doesn't start in the beginning of the box. It can be a few empty lines (like if the person who writes press "Space" a couple of times) and then the text continues further down below the square of the box (but you don't see it until you move the text so it starts in the beginning of the box).

Is there any way you can "lock" the text/box so you only can write within the area of the box? Like it is in fillable PDFs. 

I appreciate any help I can get!

Word, Excel and Onedrive for iPad suggestions

Posted: 01 Apr 2014 06:22 AM PDT

Glad that Microsoft has finally come out with office for ipad.  This is definitely useful but there's a long way to go to make these truly powerful/useful.  Some initial suggestions from the first few days of use:

Word:

1) when reviewing tracked changes, users should be able to select a default behavior for the accept/reject buttons. I.e., I don't want to click the accept button then click one of the options in the menu that oops up. I just want those buttons to be the "accept and move to next" and "reject and move to next" functions. 

2) MUST add function to send files to other applications and via Airdrop! (The email as attachment and share link on Onedrive simply won't do.  I know you guys want everyone to use Onedrive, which I like, but it's not practical in all situations and you are gutting this app by not having this function.)

3) I want a default option that every time I open a file, it saves automatically as a copy locally to the ipad (or one drive) and is editable immediately (none of this convert and edit business)

4) I haven't confirmed this too carefully, but it seems that Word thinks an iPad reviewer and a desktop reviewer with same name are two different people.  I.e., if John Doe made comments on Word for desktop, then makes further changes on iPad (also as John Doe), it shows up as changes from two different people, both named John Doe.

5) Tracked changes issue for protected documents that don't allow reviewer name to be shown / autosave.  Many legal documents have protection that eliminate the name of reviewers and replace it with "Author" upon saving.  The autosave function on Word for iPad automatically does this so ever few minutes, any changes I make gets labeled as Author instead of me and if I want to go back and edit them later, Word thinks I'm making changes on top of someone else's comments.  

Excel:

1) need to be able to set calculations to automatic. Right now I have spreadsheets where if I change one cell, I need to then click on the calculate button (which is buried) to refresh calculations. 

2) See above re: send files to other applications and via Airdrop

Filesystem / Onedrive:

1) Need offline access / caching / synching for Onedrive. So that I can say, I want this folder on Onedrive to always be synced locally so I can access files when offline and changes are pushed back up to the cloud. 

2) integration between one drive app and office apps need to be tighter. I.e., one drive app should store / cache everything. I should click a file to open in word/excel/etc and be able to edit it. Any changes should be automatically pushed back to one drive app and up to the cloud. And all this I should be able to do seamlessly online and offline.

"Pick up where you left off" - TURN OFF?

Trouble to convert Word document into PDF or read a PDF file

Posted: 31 Mar 2014 10:56 PM PDT

Hi,

We're using Office 365 at our company, all same laptops (Asus F550C) with Windows 8 and I'm the only one who cannot convert a Word doc into PDF without having all the text and images completely distorted once it's supposed to be a PDF file.

And vice versa, when I receive a PDF file and I want to open it for reading all text, images and layout appear completely distorted and just unreadable.

Any specific reason for this?

Dynamic Data Exchange doesn't work

Posted: 31 Mar 2014 05:53 PM PDT

I am trying to  use mail merge and want to import data from an Excel spreadsheet into my Word document with the formatting of numbers, currencies and percentages remaining as set forth in the spreadsheet.  When I set this up following the Office help instructions (selecting "MS Excel Worksheets via DDE (*.xls), I get an error message that "MS Word could not re-establish a DDE connection to MS Excel to complete the current task."  I also get a second message "Something went wrong, we couldn't start your program."  I have repaired Office to no avail.  What can I do to get this working (when I merge without DDE working, the numbers are in entirely wrong formats and are useless)?

Embedded visio object in word doc not rendering on iPad

Word 2013 Define Dictionary

Posted: 31 Mar 2014 04:49 PM PDT

I attempted to install the Merriam-Webster Define Dictionary (accessed by Right click, Define) in Word 2013.  But it did not install correctly, will not work, will not re-install, and will not refresh.  So it needs to be UNINSTALLED before I risk a new, clean install.  The application is apparently named winstore_cw5n1h2txyewy.  I've determined that it is located at OS (C:), Users, [UserName], AppData, Local, Packages, winstore_cw5n1h2txyewy.  Please, somebody, tell me how to get this failed program off my computer.  I have difficulty imagining that Microsoft didn't think this one through.  If you can put something on your computer, you should surely be able to remove it.

Also, these Microsoft Engineers, as well as the people seeking their help, seem to consistently confuse the term "dictionary" with three distinctly different applications.  All this just aggravates an already maddening problem.

The so-called "Custom" and "Spell Check"  "dictionaries" in Word work fine, are easy to add, delete, and modify, but are not actually "dictionaries" at all.  They are mere WORD LISTS: they offer no definitions, spelling, etymologies, usages, etc.

On the other hand, the APP dictionaries which you can download from the Windows Store actually ARE dictionaries.  They are also very easy to use or delete. (Thank you, Microsoft, for that!)

The problem is the WORD DEFINE Dictionary which you download and access by Right Clicking a word in WORD, then click Define.  That one, in my case at least, is the one that does not work.  And that one is the one that cannot be removed (though you can make it "disappear").  But to re-install it properly, it must first be REMOVED.  Completely!  So, how do I do that?  There MUST be a way!!!!   HELP!   Please...

Page number retention & problem read only presentations

Did you actually get an SSL certificate for your server? If so, then
it sounds like there is a problem with it.

Here's a nice article that covers the basics of SSL when used with
OWA:

Multiple Email Accounts

Posted: 28 Jun 2006 12:49 PM PDT

Thanks for your reply. What do you suggest I do to separate the emails?

I was thinking it would be possible to create a mailbox for each email
address, and have them both linked to the same user. Is there a way to
automate this for each user without having to manually set it up for 100+
users?

Thanks again.

Microsoft Antigen Looping Issue

Posted: 28 Jun 2006 10:01 AM PDT

Ya, i was thinking the same thing and disabled the notification awhile back,
The problem is now if you block something for an RBL then how do people know
their email didnt go through then to who they were trying to send it to. Im
just trying to find a way. Maybe Just tell them to contact the mail admin and
when they do look at the logs or something? Either way I will still have the
loop problem with the RBL server looping responses back and forth for any
kind of notification.

Or just make pop3 accounts and not entering any inbound mailserver and
entering the exchange server as outbound, and not setting up them to be

I am using Windows XP version 5.1.

Print Preview showa correctly.

It seems to be all MS works programs.

It does not print in grayscale either. It goes through the motions, but the
page come out blank. (This also happens in notepad & wordpad, but it does
print in paint, from the Internet and pictures. It used to print in MS works,
but not now.))

Missing Stock Watermarks

Posted: 01 Jan 2009 08:36 AM PST

Additionally, 9.0 works uses Format to add a water mark (picture - not
text), where earlier word uses Insert to add a text water mark. (I may have
the Format and Insert incorrectly associated with the programs). The drop
down menues are very similiar but yet different where 9.0 does not provide
for printable water marks as near as I can tell.

database formula not working

Posted: 25 Dec 2008 12:03 PM PST

This formula retains 1 if Date_Used falls between 01-Jan-2009 and 31-Jan-2009

else returns a 0 (zero) value.

=AND(Date_Used>='01/01/2009',Date_Used<='31/01/2009')

Note:

The dates are enclosed in apostrophes and not double quotes. Quotes are handled as

strings and will have no similarity to the date values that they are meant to represent.

For further advice see:

In addition, the use of VALUE as shown will not give the required results.

Birthdate does not show up properly on labels

Posted: 14 Dec 2008 07:34 PM PST

Thanks Eric;
I was about to do what you told me, but then I thought maybe this is one of
those really stupid Microsoft things....all I did was change the field format
of the Birthdate to a slightly different format (for example from 'April' to
'4/1/1996')
Initially, this dtabase was created in Works 7, so I think there was a field
translation error- so as soon as I tweaked the field, it re translated in the
new version (9) and took it out of some weird default state.

Word over Works

Posted: 10 Dec 2008 02:29 PM PST

What you are talking about is the Windows File Association which
determines which program opens a file by default when double clicked.
You can also open an application and tell it to open a file and the file
association doesn't matter,

If you want to change the file association for DOC files, then see:

Yes, as long as you don't let other people to your laptop and desktop.

Works won't work

Posted: 09 Dec 2008 01:59 PM PST

DOC files are Word format (could be any version). DOCX are Word 2007
format. You need that version of Word installed OR the 2007 converter
that I mentioned in a previous reply in order to open DOCX files..

The WPS files are in Works word processor format.

Once you install Office 2007, you can set Word to take over all DOC and
DOCX files. It may do that automatically on install.

You receive an error message when you are working in Works 8.5 or earlier
versions of Works: "Microsoft Works 8 has stopped working" or "Out of
Memory"

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933828/


You could also download and install one of the free PDF writer programs.

I use Free CutePDF Writer. There are other free PDF writers, PrimoPDF as an
example, Google will turn up more.

I find it a great tool and have it selected as my default printer.

It is amazing how much paper I have saved using CutePDF Writer.

I do not know about you, but I used to print something only to discover the
printed document is not exactly as I thought it would print, readjust and
print again. Used up a lot of paper.

Now when I print something it is saved as a PDF document, which I open and
if it looks correct, I then print from there to the HP printer to put it on
paper.

Another feature of using CutePDF Writer is if document is sent over the
internet the document displays exactly as sent.


I suggest you install CutePDF Writer
http://www.cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/writer.asp

It installs as a Printer (This enables virtually any Windows applications
(must be able to print) to create professional quality PDF documents).

At http://www.cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/writer.asp you will see two items
to download, Free Converter (GPLGS8.15; 5.01 MB) and Free Download (Ver.
2.7; 1.54 MB).

Install is smoother if you install converter first.


Make CutePDF Writer as your Default Printer, this should solve out of memory
error.

Thanks. Your comments gave me the hint to solve the problem.

I went back to portrait and set the paper size as 81/2 by 11. I then
switched to landscape and it worked. When you switch to landscape, WORKS
automatically switches the height and width.

MS WORKS FREEZES WHEN PRINT COMMAND GIVEN

Well, I've been playing around a bit and have had somewhat of a breakthrough.
I changed the setting in the printer properties from "Spool print
documents..." to "Print directly to the computer" and now the files will
print when I right click them in explorer and choose print. They still
freeze up when I try to print from within the Works Spreadsheet program
though.

Not a solution but I figured I would let whoever is reading these things
know...

works9.msi

Posted: 22 Nov 2008 11:06 AM PST

Solution for HP Pavilion !

works9.msi is located on the first of three recovery disks the users are
asked to create.

Path on recovery disk 1of 3 is:
hp/apps/APP28652/src/MSWorks/en/msworks/Works9.msi

However, Microsoft patch KB943290_en-US.EXE won't recognize the file on the
recovery disk as "legit". I copied the entire "msworks" directory from the
CD onto my C: drive, pointed the patch to the copy of Works9.msi now on my C:
drive, and the patch worked. Upgrading to Office Standard 2007 went
smoothly. Try copying only Works9.msi to your C: drive, then run the patch.
That might work as well.
