Cut & past a picture into a Word page it is formatted "IN FRONT OF TEXT" so it can be moved around, the arrow keys are used to shift the picture around the page in small increments.  In my case no matter which direction I press the arrow keys, the picture only jumps upwards in large steps until it is off the page.  HELP anyone ...

Why do my links to break when I copy the entire document?

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 12:19 PM PDT

Hi!

I'm having trouble with my links from excel into my word document. They work great, up until I need to copy the word document and excel document. 

I keep a MASTER copy of both the excel and word and save the "copied" versions as the OLD version so I can continue working on the MASTER copies. However, when I do this, the links break!

Why is that?

US versus UK English

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 10:36 AM PDT

Hi. I'm using Word 2010. In Word Options, Choose Editing Language, the editing language options are English (Ireland) <default> and English (U.S.) The Display Language and Help Language are both set to the default (Match Microsoft Windows <default>). The spell check on most of my Word files works as desired, ie flags US English as an error, but in some Word files, UK English (ie same thing as English (Ireland)) is flagged as an error in favour of US English. How do I ensure that the spell check on all Word files is English (Ireland) <default>? Thanks a lot in advance, Dollo

Why would AutoCorrect stop working?

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 10:19 AM PDT

Do you have any idea why AutoCorrect would stop working.  I have a number of words added that should automatically correct as I type them, but for some reason none of them are working in the document I am working on this morning.  Any ideas what setting it would be that it suddenly stops checking?  I have checked FIle/Options/Proofing, and everything appears to be normal.  Is there somewhere else it can be turned off?  Some of these are simply shortcut words, such as nw for network or app for application or bw for bandwidth so that I don't have to spell them out every time, but none are working today.  Thanks for any ideas.

Linking Microsoft Excel Chart Object

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 09:15 AM PDT

When I paste a microsoft excel chart object as a link, I then size this image to 7 inches to fit on my word page.

When I need to relink (not Updated Link which works fine) the object snaps back to its original size. Is there a way that the 7 inches is respected when relinking?

How do I insert a checkbox BEFORE a list number in a test?

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 08:50 AM PDT

I am trying to create a test that learners can fill in, using clickable checkboxes. Seems simple enough. But when I create a simple, multiple choice question, like the example below, and try to insert checkboxes using the Developer tool, for some reason the programmers have made it so the checkboxes are inserted AFTER the listed letters, not before, which is not intuitive at all. And I can't cut and paste them. I can't move them. I have no control at all, except to manual type all of the listed numbers and letters. And that sort of negates the entire point. I may as well just print the test and hand it out to my corporate learners like children.

SURELY there is a way to insert clickable checkboxes in the intuitive spot, BEFORE the answers??? HELP!!!!

  1. All of the Following statements regarding horses are TRUE, except:
    1. They have four legs.
    2. They can run quickly.
    3. They are purple.
    4. They have hooves.

      (Well, this box limits the formatting, of course - those second tier numbers are supposed to be letters. Man, my frustrating level is rising!!!)

Microsoft Office Starter 2010

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 07:13 AM PDT

I have a laptop running Windows 7 and Microsoft Office Starter 2010 - no problems.  My mother has the same setup and all was working fine until a couple of months ago.  Now when she tries to open a file she gets a box asking her 3 questions - does she want to buy Office 2010, install ... can't remember other options offhand - but all that happens with each of them is that she gets taken to Office website to buy new version.  I have been through every setting I can think of and nothing solves the issue.  Can anyone help?

Word Randomly Zoomed in Big . . .

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 06:36 AM PDT

This morning when I was trying a keyboard shortcut for an em dash, I pressed Fn, Alt and Plus/Equals, and instead of getting what I wanted, Microsoft Word 2007 zoomed in on itself, so much so that the icons, such as bold, italic and underline, are now blurry and hard to see. I have pressed Fn, Alt and Minus repeatedly to attempt to reverse the process, but this has not worked.

I would be grateful if someone could provide a solution.

Many Thanks.

How do I create preview images for workgroup templates in Word 2013?

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 02:56 AM PDT

I am trying to display preview images with my workgroup templates in Word 2013.

Everything I have read says to select the option to create thumbnails for the files when saving the template.

Yes, that creates thumbnails for documents created from the templates, but not for the templates themselves.

I'm obviously missing something but don't know what.

Can anyone help?

Creating a tile in Microsoft 8 or Finding a Tile that has "disappeared"

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 07:06 PM PDT

Here is my problem: 

For some reason, the tile for WORD has disappeared from my start Screen. 

Further, "Word" is not listed in All Apps

Yet, I can go to a previously created Word Document in "my Documents", open it, and edit it.

With that document open, I can then Ctrl N to create a new document

When I have an existing Word document open, I have all of the functionalities  which I had previously.

How do I get the "tile" back to the main screen, so that I don't have to do this long series of unnecessary steps to open a new document and get to work! 

Thanks in advance for your help

Background colors brought into Word document when pasting from the web

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 02:33 PM PDT

Split from this thread.


Sometimes when I paste in some text that I've copied from a web page (my own or other) it comes into word with a gray background - or maybe some other pastel background, depending - and I cannot get rid of that background in word. In fact any following text I type at the end of that blob will probably have the same color background.

It must be taking some html properties. But I'm not sure that I get that only for text off of a webpage.

The only way so far I have found to work around the issue is to cut that text from Word, paste it into Notepad, copy it from Notepad and paste it into Word.

But surely there is a better way. Is there?

How do I allow only limited formatting in a template?

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 01:42 PM PDT

I am helping to create a template for creating a variety of instruction documents that may include things like tables and flow charts.  I am learning most of this more or less from scratch, but so far have been able to restrict the number of available styles in the document and create content controls for picking dates, selecting title items through a drop-down, and grouping other text elements to lock them in place.  I've also noted the document protection options for limiting sections of the document from modification.  What I need to know is if there is some combination of these or other options that will allow me to limit the font choice without ruining imported items like tables and flowcharts.  Ideally, I would have a template that allowed users to type in or copy and paste text into a limited number of sections with all normal text inputs in Arial 11 font and all table or flowchart elements in Arial font of whatever size is appropriate for that element.  I understand that the control options in this program are limited, however, so what I really need to get to is an answer as to what is possible and what might not be a good idea because of possible conflicts.  Thanks in advance for any help.

Suppressing Blank Lines Following IF...THEN...statements in Word Mail Merge

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 01:39 PM PDT

I am merging to some address cards and each record may have one, two, or three entries for telephone numbers.  To acquire these numbers from my source document, I am using the following series of IF THEN statements:

{IF{MERGEFIELD Phone} ="" "" "Business Phone: {MERGEFIELD Phone}"

{IF{MERGEFIELD Home_Phone}=" " "Home Phone: {MERGEFIELD Home_Phone}"

{similarly for Cell Phone....}

Is it possible to suppress the blank line(s) created when someone has only a cell phone? i.e., is there a way to delete the paragraph marks between lines?  Or is some other construct needed? 

It appears that folding the Home Phone entry into the first IF THEN instead of just skipping down to the next statement if void in Business Phone is encountered would partially solve the problem.  But what to do about the cell phone?

Using an if conditional with the same Fields

Word 2010 - Creating an Table of Contents - Error!Bookmark not defined

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 01:10 PM PDT

I am creating a service agreement and wish to add a table of contents.  The file has about 10 0r 12 merge fields.  I spent considerable amount of time working on the Table of contents and changed provisions to conform to various styles.  I went through all of the steps to add the table of contents and through the document to identify the style.  Updated the table of contents and it appears where it is supposed to with correct numbers and page number references.  When I merge the data, the merged document has the table of contents and it appears exactly the same.  That is until I tell it to print.  When I tell it to print, the page numbers in the Table of Contents change to "Error! Bookmark not defined." for every page reference in the table of contents and the heading "TAble of Contents" also disappears. When I query it, it returns a message:  "The current document doesn't contain a table of contents field that can be updated automatically.  To insert one, click the table of contents button on the reference tab.  If you filed out a table manually, you must update it manually." 

I did not manually fill out a table of contents, I used the software function.  The table appears 100% correct until I tel it to print the file.  I tried changing the Field | Options | Display on the original file and the merged file to "update fields before Printing."  It doesn't seem to make any difference what that setting is.  None of the items listed in the Table of Contents contain merge fields.

Anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong?

Microsoft Word 2013

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 12:29 PM PDT

Hello,

I was using Word today and my laptop crashed saying that it needed to restart as it found a problem. On restart it said that it was installing some updates. Once I logged on and attempted to start up Word again it came up saying that I needed to Log In with my microsoft account. I did and it then said that there was no product related to this account. I then attempted to enter the product key of my current Microsoft Office and it then takes me to the loading screen of Getting Your new Office ready for you and it has been stuck on this loading screen for the past hour now and it wont let me onto any of my documents.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Changing the default margins, paragraph, and font for all Word documents

I have tried unsuccessfully to set the default margins, paragraph, and font for all Word documents by setting the formatting I want then clicking on the "Set as Default" button in the Page Setup, Paragraph, and Font formatting windows.

How can I change the default margins, paragraph, and font for all future Word documents?

Word Macro - Not Writing to Excel Doc

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 09:48 AM PDT

    

Hello All,

 

Below is a Word Macro that's not working correctly and I'm wondering if you can review and give me your thoughts. I've verified the Bookmark in my WordDoc - Form Field is correct and the correct Dropdown Value "1" is selected. So that should set the Stmttype to "DRS" (Form Field – Bookmarked "Type" has 4 dropdown selections and Number 1 is "DRS").  However, the result does not write to the noted Excel Doc (also the path and excel doc name have been verified correct).

 

So what it does is the Routine runs, but writes NOTHING to the assigned Cell (B1).

 

And thoughts?

 

Thank you – Jenny B.

 

 

Sub WritetoSheet()

 

    Dim XLSheet As Object

    Dim Stmttype

    Dim Wbook As String

 

'   Prompt for values

   

    If ActiveDocument.FormFields("Type").DropDown.Value = 1 Then

    Stmttype = "DRS"

         

    End If

   

'   Create Sheet object

    Wbook = ThisDocument.Path & "\Create Proof.xlsm"

    Set XLSheet = GetObject(Wbook, "Excel.Sheet").Activesheet

   

'   Put values in sheet

     

    XLSheet.Range("B1") = Stmttype

          

    Set XLSheet = Nothing

        

 

End Sub

Issues with copying and pasting from pdf to word 2013

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 08:43 AM PDT

When I copy text from a pdf into word 2013 it takes the font I have set for my document which is Times New Roman but for some reason the spacing between the words is too wide and the format of the spacing is MS Mincho. I can highlight the entire line of text and select Times New Roman but the spacing still has MS Mincho. I have changed my copy and paste options to "Keep text only" but that doesn't solve the problem.

The top line in the image is copied from the pdf and the bottom line is typed directly in word. You can see they are exactly the same words but the spacing is off. When the cursor is on a word in the top line it says times new roman.

In this image I have moved the cursor to the space before a word and it show MS Mincho. It is like this for all the words in the pasted sentence.

Any ideas?

Complicated Mail Merge -- Multiple Entries Per Email

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 08:15 AM PDT

The raw report I'm working from to create this mail merge sometimes includes different rows for the same identifier.

Specifically, a single individual with a single email address may have multiple lines in the spreadsheet, each for a different insurance policy. I am trying to create a mail merge that includes all of a particular email address's insurance policies in one message.

The spreadsheet looks something like this:

 

Email Policy Type Policy Number
*** Email address is removed for privacy ***   Policy #1 Policy Number #1
*** Email address is removed for privacy ***  Policy #2  Policy Number #2
*** Email address is removed for privacy ***   Policy #3 Policy Number #3
*** Email address is removed for privacy *** Policy #4 Policy Number #4

Instead of sending out four separate emails, one for each policy, I would like to send out one email that has all four:

Dear <<Name>>,

Text text text

Policy Type Policy Number
Policy #1 Policy Number #1
Policy #2  Policy Number #2
Policy #3 Policy Number #3
Policy #4 Policy Number #4

Regards,

Me

It seems like a simple if-then statement should be sufficient, but I can't find a way to make an if-then statement in Word that says, essentially, if the next record has the same email address, append the policy type and expiration date in a row below the first policy type and expiration date.

Microsoft Word 2007 works too slowly

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 07:55 AM PDT

A couple of days ago, I noticed that Microsoft Word started working very slowly as indicated by frequent appearance of the blue spinning ring when I tried to copy and paste or do some other things. I also noticed that, while I was working on the document (432 KB, 41 pages, 107,000 characters), the symbols on the top left corner (save, backwards, etc.) also appeared to be in action, sometimes disappearing completely and then coming back on after a few seconds. I tried to repair it and it said that there was something wrong with AVG 2015  that I had installed the day before. I removed AVG 2015 but there was no improvement. I tried to test it with a very small file and there was an increase in speed but Word was still slow. Then I installed Microsoft Word Home and Student Edition again from Microsoft's download site. I am now using this one and it still is terribly slow. I believe my PC is virus free and could not identify any other reason for the slowness. I am able to use the program but it causes me to lose a lot of time (I do translations every day). What should I do?

Thank you for your help.

Regards,

Bulend

Can Microsoft Word automatically fill in the date?

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 07:06 AM PDT

I would like to set up a simple weekly calendar in MS word, and enter the date for Sunday (on the lefthand column).


Is there a way to get a field into this calendar, that will add one day later to the number entered on the left? In other words, can I get the field in the Monday column to always display the next date, after Sunday? If I enter 26 October in teh Sunday column, is there a way to get Word to insert 27 October in the Monday column? And then, if I open up this file the week afterwards, and enter 2 November in the Sunday column, is there a way to get Word to enter 3 November in the Monday column?

enter text once, see it in several places - possible?

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 06:58 AM PDT

I would like to be able to enter text in one location in a document (say, in a table cell) and have that same text auto-populate a different location in the same document (say, on a particular page further down). Or perhaps vice versa. And do the same thing recurrently for different text in similar-but-different locations in the document.

Is there a way to do this in Word 2013? Or not?

And if there is a way, is it straightforward enough that I can hand the document over to the users and let them maintain it, or would it continue to require specialist support?

Monospace Font Question

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 03:54 AM PDT

Greetings!

I am using Korean Windows 7.

When using the Consolas monospace font, things are thrown out of whack whenever spaces are inter-spaced among letters within the sentences.

All other letters in this font appear OK (e.g., wwww and llll etc. all appear equal in length), but not so with the blank spaces and the other letters.

How can this be remedied?  I unchecked the Option / Layout Balance SBSC characters and DBSC characters, whatever the heck that means, but the problem is still present.

Or is there another monospace font that has everything (spaces, letters, etc.) equal in length?

I would appreciate your advice in this matter.

Creating a different last page footer

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 02:29 AM PDT

Hi all

I am trying to create a document which has a footer throughout, with different text on the last page only.

The page numbers do not start at 1, so the conditional if page = numpages will not work for me.

I can't use section breaks either as it's a merge template which starts off as a single page until it's populated with the content.

Does anyone know how I can get this to work?

Thanks in advance!

Change font size and line spacing in the index

Posted: 21 Oct 2014 09:33 PM PDT

I was reducing the font size and line spacing in my indexes (to save space) manually after the indexes were created. Then I noticed that the next indexes had wrong odd-page headers. If I don't change the font size and line spacing, the headers are OK. So what I need is a way to create the index with a smaller font size and line spacing than usual. I tried setting their defaults but it made no difference. And I don't see a field code that does it. (I normally use {XE \F "B" \c 2} for my B-type index entries; B can also be G, J, N, R, and S.)

Possible? Not possible?

The First Page of Each Sheet in a Booklet Is Not Printing...

Posted: 21 Oct 2014 06:07 PM PDT

I'm trying to print a 12-page, 3 sheet booklet using Microsoft Word 2010. I'm using an HP Officejet Pro 8600 which has double-sided printing. I print on both sides, flipping on the short edge. I've noticed that the first page doesn't print any content, it flips and doesn't print the first page on that side either. Except their page numbers which I have in the header does print! Tiny 12s, 10s, 4s and 2s are there every time and nothing else. These pages DO appear in the print previews.

AND the third, innermost sheet always prints perfectly. All four pages' content: graphics, page numbers and text are there.

What I've tried so far:

  • Using a different printer (HP Photosmart 7510)
  • Exporting .doc as a .pdf and printing from Adobe*
  • Printing on a lighter stock** (intended for 65 pound card stock)
  • Manually printing on both sides

* I have little experience with Adobe. The pages are printing in quarters right now. Working on it.

**Printing on 24 pound stock yielded the same results.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

saved document

Thanks, in advance, for any assistance!

Merge Cells Button on Ribbon Not Available -- a bug?

Posted: 21 Oct 2014 05:14 PM PDT

I created a table (INSERT à Table à Insert Table) and entered some information in some of the cells of the newly created table.

I want to merge two cells in the same column. I position the cursor to the cell in the previous row. Then I press down on the left shift key, press and release the cursor down key, and release the left shift key. However the Merge Cells button on the ribbon is still greyed out – I can't select it to merge the two selected cells. Is it just me or is this a bug?

If I continue by selecting another application and returning to the document, then I can select the Merge Cells button on the ribbon. I can also continue by selecting the columns beside the current selection and returning to the original column.

Just positioned the cursor on the first cell:

Just selected the first cell and the second cell:

Just selected the adjacent cells. But this time, the Merge Cells button are not greyed out anymore:

Office 2007 Requirements

Posted: 31 Aug 2007 06:04 AM PDT

Hi Chris,

MS Office has optional installation items that include Primary Interop Assemblies (PIA) to allow programmability with .NET Framework
v1.1 or higher. (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/840585)

There are add-ons that require .NET v2 to function.

======================
<<"Chris" <com> wrote in message news:googlegroups.com...
Yeah, and it isn't mentioned in there at all.. which may or may not
mean anything IMO. I'm just trying to find out how the framework
factors into Office. >>

how do you activate ms office trials when the wizard does not rec

Posted: 30 Aug 2007 08:56 PM PDT

I have the same trouble, I know I must activate the products only one way by
internet. But I access internet through our company's proxy which only http
protocol permit. Anyone know how to activate the trail version by internet
way with outbound through proxy.

Thanks a lot!

Using Templates or profiles for "all users" on Imaged machine

Posted: 30 Aug 2007 12:46 PM PDT

Usually I set those options through the CIW (Custom Installation Wizard).
Page 10 of 24 gives you the option to set nearly anything you can from
within the program itself. That way anyone and everyone who opens up, say
excel on that machine, starts with the base settings. This is great for
stand alone machines or machines you dont have a GPO setup for yet. If this
is for currently installed office2003 installs I would then recommend going
the AD/.ADM route as that is the easiest way to setup default settings for
network connected machines.

In addition to what others have said here is a brief rundown on the
different versions of Office and what the EULA says:

Home & Student (or Student and Teacher if 2003 or older) - up to three
computers (two computers for S & T XP) in the house for NON-COMMERCIAL
purposes.

Office retail (full or upgrade install) - desktop and laptop for use by the
SAME PERSON.

OEM - installed on one computer and the license it tied to that computer and
can't be installed on any other machine at any time. If the machine dies,
the license also dies.

Office XP Professional Installation Problem

Posted: 29 Aug 2007 05:16 AM PDT


I have an Intel Imac with Parallels installed. I have Office 04 Version 11.1
on the Mac side. I just installed office 2007 on the SP Pro side. I mostly
use the Mac. When I open word doents created in the Mac version, it opens
in the Word 07. Can I set this so that they will open in the older Mac
version. It is a pain to have to wait for Parallels to open then XP and
finally Word 07.

Outlook tries to install something each time it starts

Posted: 28 Aug 2007 09:43 PM PDT

OK, finally fixed the problem. I wasn't an owner of this key, so I had to
change ownership as well.

But to fix Outlook problem, I also had to do the same with
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.pst key.

Thanks,

Peter

| Hi RBITECH,
|
| To save all the new doents in Office 2007 as Office 2003 format by
| default, follow the steps below.
| -----------------
| Click the Office button > Word/Excel/PowerPoint Options > choose Save >
set
| 'Save files in this format' as Office 97-2003 format.
|
| If you want to save the existing Office 2007 files as Office 2003 format,
| we need to use Save As menu.
| -----------------
| Open the Office 2007 files (*.docx, *.xlsx, *.pptx). Click Office button 
| Save As > Word 97-2003 doent > save it.
| If you are using Office 2003, please install the FileFormatConverters.exe
| so that you can open/save the Office 2007 files in Office 2003.
|
| If you want to transfer the existing Office 2003 files as Office 2007
| format, we can use the Office File Converter tool.
| -----------------
| We can use the Office File Converter which is included in the OMPM to
| convert files in bulk. The Office Migration Planning Manager (OMPM) is a
| collection of tools that enables you to prepare for migration to the
| Microsoft 2007 Office system.
|
| Following is the key steps.
|
| 1. Download OMPM and save it on C:\.
| http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?linkid=75727
|
| 2. Click the Start menu > Run > type the following command and click OK.
|
| C:\MigrationPlanningManager.exe /extract:c:\ompm
| 3. Download and install the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for Word,
| Excel, and PowerPoint 2007 File Formats (FileFormatConverters.exe).
|
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=941B3470-3AE9-4AEE-
| 8F43-C6BB74CD1466&displaylang=en
|
| 4. Open the file C:\ompm\Tools\ofc.ini. Modify the following things:
|
| Under FoldersToConvert section, remove the ";" before fldr and add the
file
| path (the folder that contains the files you want to convert) after "="
|
| 5. Double click the ofc.exe tool. Then, it will begin to convert. It will
| create a folder named "Converted". It will convert all the files in the
| path folder we defined in #4 (including subfolders) to the "Converted"
| folder
|
| For detail information about how to migrate Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
| files to the 2007 Office system, refer to the following webpage.

Office 2007 Enterprise Version

Posted: 27 Aug 2007 12:42 AM PDT

Hi Ricko,

Assuming you have Admin rights when doing the install then the information in the Office setup log files you can locate using
Start=>Run and type in %temp%
should also include the error message with the key listed.

The procedure in http://suppport.microsoft.com/kb/325316
may be helpful for resolving the 1404 error.

=================

use system restore through safe mode to get it back running again. Works fine
after restore. Anyone have any insight here? I bought it under my companies
