I am unable to view my scanned drawings in Word 2013, the only thing that appears is a huge, symbolic code. Posted: 27 Aug 2014 03:06 PM PDT Hi, fellow Microsoft Community Members, I have Microsoft Office Word 2013 installed on my computer, and I had bought mostly with high hopes that I would be able to view my drawings as well as my writings. I have been able to write but all my drawings which I have scanned for my PC do not appear. Word always says in a little box that I have to select some sort of coding for my drawing to be read. I have tried all of the 3 choices word has given me and none of them bring up my image. They all bring a almost exact written code that describes my picture. I am rather new to anything that involves technology. But as a artist I had hoped that I could figure out a way to view my images in Word. I still, however am at a loss and this whole problem has made me so confused. I am not even sure as silly as it sounds which types of files Word 2013 can read. I heard that Word accepted images but I am not sure what to do for it to accept mine. How can I get Word 2013 to view my drawings and not their codes? Also if possible what are all the file types Word 2013 can accept? If anyone has any answers or just any ideas of how I can maybe end this problem, please share. I am at my wits end with this whole situation. Thanks |

The cursor jumps to field after pasting data into a group protected form Posted: 27 Aug 2014 01:49 PM PDT I have a Word 2010 form with content controlled fields protect by grouping. If one: 1) Tabs into a field 2) Copies the data in that field 3) Hits tab to go to the next field The cursor jumps to the first field at the top of the form. One then has to click in the next box or tab through the entire form again. Is there any work around to this action? |
No cursor or ability to type on a new doc. Posted: 27 Aug 2014 01:26 PM PDT Open Word, 2010. Actually I can see arrow on part of page where margins would be. And in where I would normally type I see justification symbol instead of cursor. Typing (blind because no cursor seems to be protected against. Word / letter count doesn't go up.) Without doing anything, if I right click, paste option is available like I had copies something earlier (didn't). And if I change through a couple options, minimize page and restore, sometimes the desktop screen stays visible with Word running, like I did a screen capture. In fact, it seems like everything I am doing is being screen captured. Malware free. Repaired and removed Word 2010. Excel works fine. Word Perfect works fine. Tried a different keyboard. Ideas?? Thanks. |

Office programs do not start Posted: 27 Aug 2014 11:44 AM PDT Word worked just fine yesterday on my Windows 8.1 tablet PC (ASUS T100). Home and Student Office that was pre-installed on the tablet, which was purchased in July. I turned it on today and nothing happens when I open Word or any other Office program. If I try to open Word from the start menu, the desktop opens and then nothing else happens. If I try to open Word from the desktop, nothing happens. If I try to open a docx file from the desktop, nothing happens. If I try to open a docx file from OneDrive, nothing happens. If I right click a document and select open, nothing. If I right click and try "open as" and select Word, nothing. Word will not run in safe mode, either. Further tinkering shows the same result for all Office apps. The computer itself is otherwise fine, so I believe this to be a problem with Office. What's particularly frustrating is the complete lack of an error message or other clue to what is wrong. |
Unable to fill in Word Form Posted: 27 Aug 2014 11:15 AM PDT I inherited two similar Word documents. Both are in table structure. Some of the cells are empty, to enter text, and some have ActiveX checkbox controls. To use the ActiveX checkbox controls, I need to have the forms in Restrict Editing mode. In one of the forms, when in Restrict Editing mode, I can still type into the empty table cells, but in the other form, I'm unable to enter text into the cells. I want to be able both to check the checkboxes, and enter text into the empty cells. Does anyone have any idea why the second form is not allowing me to do this, and what I can do to fix this situation? Many thanks! |

Last Page footer differs than footer for rest of document Posted: 27 Aug 2014 10:52 AM PDT I have a template that contains a footer. When users fill out the template, the finished document may be only one page or multiple pages depending on the amount of text entered. If the document is several pages, I would like the footer to appear differently on the last page from the previous pages' footers. If the document is only one page long, the footer should appear like it would on the last page of a multi page document. All footers contain page numbers, but the last page footer will contain some disclaimer text that should not appear on previous pages. Example 1 (multi page document) Page 1 Footer (page number only) Page 2 Footer (page number only) Page 3 Different Footer (page number and disclaimer text) Example 2 (one-page document) Page 1 Different Footer (page number and disclaimer text) |

Copied and linked text between word documents Posted: 27 Aug 2014 09:53 AM PDT I have text in one document that I want to appear in another document, and to be updated in the second document when the first document changes. I did a copy, paste special, paste link, HTML format in the second document. It works fine. when I click on the copied text I can see that it is linked, and I can find the link info. My question is about the original document. Is there any way in the original document to see that a text has been copied and linked to other documents? If so, can I see what document were linked? thanks for your help. |

Hiding track changes in Word 2013 Posted: 27 Aug 2014 06:32 AM PDT I need to be able to hide track changes so when someone else opens the document, they can see the final copy with the changes already incorporated. In Word 2010 I would normally select 'no markup' or go to 'show markup' and deselect all of the viewing options, but when I do this in Word 2013 and then save the document like this, all of the viewing options have been reset when I open it again and all of the track changes appear on the page. I don't want to accept all of the changes. I need the person viewing the document to have the option of looking at the them; I just don't want the document delivered with all the changes visible. Is there a way to hide track changes so they won't appear again until someone actually goes into the options and selects 'simple markup' or 'all markup'? |
VBA UserForm Design - Using a Scroll Bar Posted: 27 Aug 2014 06:06 AM PDT I have a UserForm with 4 pages. There are 4 TextBoxes on each page. The layout is simple and symetrical. However I now need to add page 5 with 30 TextBoxes, but there is no room on page 5 to accommodate them, unless I resize pages 1-4 so that they are all the same size. I guess the answer is to place a vertical scroll bar on page 5. How do I add the text boxes in view object (design) mode without extending the size of the page(s)? |

Many thanks Ian |
Cross referance, bookmarks or Fields????? Posted: 27 Aug 2014 05:20 AM PDT Hi all, For what seems to be a simple request may turn out to be quite tricky. I would like to be able to create a a field or book mark that the user can type a word into and have it populate below in the table. So The user would enter "12345" and "This is the description" and it will appear on the grid below as shown. I was able to do this using either a bookmark or cross referance. I would like to then save this selection/form as a Quick Part Selection and be able to insert it multiple times in the one document. I was also able to do this however when I change the item number on a newley inserted Quick Part all the other referances change. Is there any way a Quick selection or a Bibliography save can have all the referances contained within it so that if i change one it will not effect the other? Cheers :~) |
Bunch of random letters got added to my Word document... Posted: 27 Aug 2014 05:06 AM PDT Hi! First of all, thanks in advance for any help you may provide to solve this issue. I've been revising a medical document at work, keeping track of changes for my editor to review later... Last I checked, though, a bunch of seemingly random letters were added to the original text, making it all utter garbage. Here's a few examples (in Portuguese): Original Introdução: As Neuropatias Óticas Hereditárias compreendem um conjunto heterogéneo de doenças genéticas cuja manifestação clínica principal é a atrofia ótica. Esta atrofia resulta da perda dos axónios das células ganglionares e alteração do suporte microvascular.

It's ridiculous. Even more ridiculous is the fact that all I have is the garbled up current version, and the original without ANY of the hundreds of corrections I implemented. No in-between whatsoever. So what I'd like to know is if there's any way, however remote, that I might fix the document while keeping the many, many, MANY hours-worth of revision changes that I did... Is there? Please, someone say that there is. Please! Oh, the humanity! PS - I apologise for the tone. It's just that I somehow have a gut feeling that this is irreversible and I'll have to start all over, while getting paid exactly the same. |
Shortcut to Last Workpoint? Posted: 27 Aug 2014 03:46 AM PDT I am working on a large document at several points which are many pages apart. Even with the help of the navigation pane or by setting bookmarks I think it takes too much of my time to find my last workpoint(s). Is there a keyboard shortcut or can you even create a macro that returns you to the last workpoint(s)? G.R. |

Custom Autocorrect Not Working Unless Capitalised Posted: 27 Aug 2014 02:02 AM PDT Hi guys I originally asked this question over on a different forum (http://www.msofficeforums.com/word/22094-custom-autocorrect-issues-capitalisation.html) but to no avail. At the time, I wasn't using many shortcuts, so I let it slide when I couldn't solve it, but now I am using more and more I thought I would delve a little deeper into fixing it. I am currently using custom autocorrects as shortcuts for adding formatted text, e.g. for the names of radioactive isotopes, as shown in the above link, so that I don't need to manually select and superscript the 99m part of 99mTc for example. Similarly, for the units µGy I have created a shortcut to correct uGy to swap the u for a Greek mu. This works perfectly, as long as I capitalised one of the letters within the autocorrect. It doesn't matter which letter, for example even Ugy corrects to µGy. However, if all of the letters are lower case, the autocorrect doesn't work and it leaves it as ugy for instance. I have tried adding lower-case examples to "Options - Proofing - Autocorrect Options" but they automatically highlight the original capitalised version in the list, implying that the case of the letters is irrelevant in Autocorrect. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening and how to fix it? It's not the end of the world to need to capitalise one of the letters, but as I am typing this a lot, it would save many keystrokes overall and also satiate my curiosity :) Thank you Mark |
bibliography Posted: 27 Aug 2014 01:12 AM PDT Hello, some of the bibliography fields do not show up in the way my tutors direct me to (italics when it shouldn't be etc). The problem is that after I change it to the way I want it, and later update the list, it goes back to how it was before. How can I change it permanently? Or even better - change the way it is set up to show? Thanks |
Proofing tools not installed Posted: 26 Aug 2014 10:53 PM PDT I have been using microsoft word 2013 since a couple of months ago I have used the software without any issues until today when proofing all of a sudden stopped working and asked me to buy a language pack which I should have already because it was working. Does this mean I have to buy a lenguage pack which I already had again? |
Pressing Enter key on a Heading changes the font to Times New Roman Posted: 26 Aug 2014 09:26 PM PDT Hi, I am creating a document and my default font is Calibri 11pt.

Word issue: cutting off edges of documents while printing Posted: 26 Aug 2014 07:59 PM PDT Hey guys! I have Microsoft Office 365 University on my MacBook Pro. The university that I attend uses outdated versions of word for their documents, and every time I download and print a document, it cuts off the edges. I have tried copying the info and pasting into a new document. I have tried to save as a pdf. It still prints it out with the edges cut off. By edges, I mean the top, sometimes the bottom, and sometimes the sides if there is a table or picture. I have also tried changing the print settings to page setup: US Letter-Borderless. Sometimes it says - 'the header in section 1 is outside the margins.' Other times, it doesnt say that and It still cuts things off. My roommate has a macbook pro and microsoft office and her version automatically adjusts every time she downloads one of these outdated documents. None of her edges are cut off. I have tons of documents to print for school, and I would love to figure out how to change the settings on my program to accommodate every time I download and print a document. I have tried calling microsoft, I have tried messaging the chat center, but I either wait on hold for 20 minutes, or I have spoken to roughly 8 people on the chat who have not been able to solve the problem. If you know of a way to fix this issue, or if you know of a way to reach a manager at microsoft, please let me know!! All help is greatly appreciated. |

Unable to double click and open Word or Excel files from OneDrive folder Posted: 26 Aug 2014 11:04 AM PDT Original title: OneDrive I am having a problem opening office files on my local drive. I recently switched to office 365 from Office 2010 and I never encountered a problem with OneDrive. When I double click on a local Office file on the OneDrive folder, Word or Excel opens but not the document. However, if I open the file from Word or Excel they open fine. I also notice that if I open the file from windows 8 toolbar, if the document link is pointing to OneDrive it opens fine, but if the link is pointing to the OneDrive local drive it does not. The files are available offline and sync is working fine. Any thoughts? |
