Word 2010: Rich Text Placeholder: when I enter data in one of those fields (no matter which one), the information should change accordingly in the others (no macro's)

Posted: 25 Oct 2014 02:03 PM PDT

  • I have .DOCX file
  • Where I included a Rich Tekst placeholder (I am working in the Dutch version at the moment, this is what I am talking about):

  • I would like to have this field in several places in our document and when I enter data in one of those fields (no matter which one), the information should change accordingly in the others

  • I have an old file (.Docx, no macro's or any programming) where this behaviour is present: So the same field in different places and no matter in which on  you enter the text, the text in the other fields changes accordingly
  • I would like to reproduce this
  • Thank you for your help :)

Windows update error. KB2883082

How can I set up word 2007 to NOT change font to MS Mincho whenever I type a zodiac symbol?

Posted: 25 Oct 2014 08:50 AM PDT

Whenever I type any of the zodiac symbols the font is changed to MS Mincho and I have to change it back. Even in my web browser these symbols are forced to be rendered as MS Mincho. I particularly dislike the way these characters look in MS Mincho and would like to prevent MS Mincho from ever being a usable font, however I can't delete it because it's a "Microsoft Protected Font"

So can you please help me out and let me know how to remove it or completely disable it? Because it doesn't display the zodiac symbols properly and they are being forced to display in MS Mincho.

converting a word document to PDF

Posted: 25 Oct 2014 07:57 AM PDT

Hi

I have built a 10 page word document for publishing on my website

I have installed a picture into this build and selected a page colour of blue-grey text 2 lighter 40% and converted to PDF

I require PDF for my Flipbook build software

the built PDF page shows a different lighter colour that of a much lighter blue-grey unspecified  I cannot find it in the standard colour options

Thinking it may be an issue as I had sent this Word build via Hotmail to a fellow webmaster, he adding his content then returning the document I then decided to start a NEW word build

printing off the original Word document I retyped the entire document onto a new build

Converting to PDF I got the same lighter colour result on the PDF build

So finally I did another Word build, this time just typing in a few words onto the page adding my blue-grey page colour , saving all and converting to PDF

it worked !!!!

Any ideas as to what is going on as I have been building these word/PDF files for months using this colour and have had no problem

I have incidentally removed the previous versions from the Word system and I still get this lighter colour in any new build

thank you in anticipation

Can't reliably backup macros, autotext, quickparts

Posted: 25 Oct 2014 06:18 AM PDT

In order to safeguard my macros, autotext and quickparts, I've been backing up the relevant files (normal.dot, normalemail.dot, building blocks ) from %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Templates

However, when I restore the backed up files to 

%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Templates

they often do not have the backed up data (macros etc)

I have been restarting the machine before and after to ensure it isn't some kind of memory effect at work.

To make it more puzzling, it is not consistent: ....sometimes it does work. More often it doesn't

Office 2010 Office Home edition with Office Starter

Posted: 25 Oct 2014 06:17 AM PDT

I recently opened Word Starter and had licensing issues. It said to Uninstall and reinstall if problem persists. Well, I did the wrong thing and uninstalled Office 2010. Tried to  restore to earlier date, but couldn't do it for some reason.  What is the licensing problem and do I have to purchase Office to solve the problem? Is it possible to reinstall Office?

Word 2013 not opening transferred documents

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 05:32 PM PDT

I hope that someone is able to help me resolve this issue because it gets really annoying to do work arounds.

Recent documants

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 05:21 PM PDT

I can go into Word Options and click on Display and in the "Show this number of recent documents" I can change the number to 0, but when I come back later it has reset itself back to 17. Why give the option to change it if it's going to default back to 17?

 

There are  other who use this computer and I don't want them seeing my recently opened documents!

Yep, your are right.

MS Office XP's version of MS Office Doent Imaging can open .MDI files but did not have the MS Office Doent Imaging Printer,
Office 2003 and Office 2007 do have that optional installation feature. In some cases you may need to set MS Office Doent
Imaging to 'Not Available', to uninstall it, restart the PC then readd it with the Doent Imaging Writer using Office 2007 choice
in Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel.

============= 
OK, you are right. I went back to the machine that had Office 2007 on it
and I went to the "Microsoft Office Tools" folder and clicked on "Microsoft
Office Doent Imaging" and got a message "Insert the Microsoft XP
Professional with Frontpage" (mind you this was from Microsoft Office
Professional 2007), which I did and then, Microsoft Office Doent Imaging
was installed! I did get confused as I thought it couldn't find the .mdi
driver.

So I have two machines that have Microsoft Office Doent Imageing
installed and neither of them will recognize a .mdi file. The only file
format available in the drop down menu is .tif.

So perhaps you can tell me where to get the driver for .mdi files.

Thanks >>

Office does not install Office Doent Imaging by default. It is included in
Office 2003 and 2007. Go to Add Programs in the control panel, scroll down to
Office, click change, find Office Doent Imaging on your setup disk, run all
from my computer.

See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=834008 "You cannot send a
doent as an e-mail message from an Office 2003 program". I believe
the article also applies to Office 2007, but just in case I'm wrong, you
should back up your registry before fiddling with it.

Your best route to solve this issue with the Office Enterprise Edition is to contact the IT person at the Company from where you purchased this Enterprise Edition through the Home purchase program. They are the ones that hold the Volume license and can help you with your issue.

Office 2007 Enterprise vs Ultimate

Posted: 06 Sep 2007 08:42 PM PDT

When it comes to an Excel key, if it was in fact an Excel standalone key it
would only work with an Excel standalone product. Standalone keys are not
interchangable with Suite keys and vice-versa.

Ultimate and enterprise keys are interchangeable however. It really isnt
that odd that you dont have Ultimate components since you have not installed
office using ultimate media which contains those componenets.

Deploying Office 07 with Group Policy

Posted: 06 Sep 2007 05:43 PM PDT

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your reply and the detail information about how you fixed the
issue. I am glad to hear that the problem has been fixed after extending
the Group Policy scripts time out setting (it is not related to the account
permission as the policy is in computer startup).

If you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to
contact me. It is always my pleasure to be of assistance.

Have a nice day!

| Hi Emily,
|
| Thanks for your reply. I have done some further testing and can confirm
the
| following:
|
| The computers where installation failed were older computers and took
about
| 20 minutes to install Office 2007. Logging on as a standard user or as an
| administrator makes no difference. The installaion runs smoothly for the
| first 10 minutes until the time out for GP logon scripts is reached. From
| this point on you get a few errors in the event log saying that office
has
| not installed correctly.
|
| Setting the time out to longer fixed the problem. (Computer
| Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/Scripts/Maximun wait time
for
| Group Policy scripts) I set it to 2400 seconds to be safe as another
older
| computer I tested it on took 30 minutes to install.
|
| With the above setting, Office installed without problem even if no one
logs
| on to the computer.
|

invalid product key for office 2007

Posted: 06 Sep 2007 05:04 PM PDT

You mention an old computer, so I'm guessing you are now trying to
install your copy of Office 2007 on a new computer? If yes, and if your
new computer came with a free trial version of Office 2007 already
installed on it, then you need to uninstall the free trial software
before you install your purchased copy of Office 2007.

Beside the kernel module, you need the matching firmware. Get a matching

The firmware is installed at /lib/firmware in Slackware.

Or else, you might find the firmware specifically within Debian package.

MS Word document not opening

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 02:37 PM PDT

I created a word document in computer A (Windows 7) and made it password protected. Now i open it in other computer B with same operating system (Windows 7), MS Word application starts but doesn't open that document. Only MS word window with menu bar is displayed. It doesn't even ask for password. I daily edit the word document in computer A and save another copy and protect it by using password. All these word files are opening in computer A but not opening in any other computers.

Please help

Changing default save location

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 01:44 PM PDT

Split from this thread.

Suzanne,  Are you still involved with this issue - I know the last post is almost a year old. My situation is that I wish your very last sentence was true here.  We upgraded everyone to MS Office 2010 and the Save As issue is causing lots of heartburn due to that option many times defaulting to users c:\drive vs the expected network locations files are opened and edited from. Users know how to drill down to desired network locations but are really getting hot under the collar about this issue since they already have to do this once to get to files that are archived multiple levels deep on a network drive to do reviews and updates - they save their work [renamed appropriately] and assume all is well. Then, when they are out of the office, their work [edited and re-named files] cannot be found as it is not in the expected folder but rather on their c:\drive locked away from other users and IT [where I am at] has to get involved with managers/supervisors needing to approve perusal of their personal profile area and moving of files. This has become very bothersome. There is no budget to upgrade to 2013 and no desire to downgrade to 2007. Perhaps a local fix or macro is available to address this?  Thanks.

Word 2010 Mail Merge: Records Only Merge to One Cell (top left) of Multi-Cell per Page, Multi Page Merge Document

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 01:13 PM PDT

I am merging contact information to cards (Avery template from Word selection) that are laid out two across five down.  I have entered my MERGEFIELDS in the top left cell of the document, selected recipients from the source, etc. and conducted the merge.  Every tenth record merges correctly into the top left cell of each page of the document, but no merged data appears in any of the remaining 9 cells on the page. 

Is there a general strategy on how to troubleshoot a problem like this? 

CLick to run configuration failure

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 12:35 PM PDT

I'm having an issue with opening Microsoft Word Home and Student on my WIndows 7 computer. It was installed on it before I got it, and I got it as a gift brand new from my grandparents in 2010. This started recently, but I can't open it anymore, it give me a box saying "Click-2-Run configuration failure". I have tried to Fix-It wizard from Microsoft, and it says that it won't work with my OS. (Not sure why, it's an HP notebook and Windows 7). I can't get a new product key from HP either, I went through their support and basically got the message I'm SOL. Is there anyway I can fix it myself? If there's a very detailed step by step guide that would be great as I'm not good with doing things to alter programs. I have Microsoft Word Starter 2010 if that helps. All I use out of the Office suite is Word, so I'd rather avoid having to buy it to use.

Irregular page numbering in Word Navigation view

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 12:18 PM PDT

I have a 75 page Word document that shows irregular page numbering from the Navigation view. The view show pages 1-6 normally, then the next page is 9 and page 11 is duplicated. This seems to be the reason I cannot add page numbers in the footer in the proper sequence. Am I able to change or re-format?

How do I stop Office 2013 from "helping" me so much?

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 10:45 AM PDT

I recently "upgraded" from Office 2010 to 2013.  Not only do I still see things that have been bothersome to me many others  but I see new "features" that only add to that list.

I don't need to have tool-tips blocking my cursor when I want to click on something.  I am intelligent enough to see the tip else where on the screen.

I do not need to have a bullet placed when I want to enter a line of asterisks.

I especially want to stop all these automatic spaces between single sentences and paragraphs that make my document look as if a 2nd grader wrote it.

The ribbon and borders used to have a blue color to it to separate it from the text screen and other windows.  How do I get that back?
I used to be able to click on a window and clearly see that it has been selected.  How do I get that back?

When I use the arrow keys to walk up and down the text, I realize that it will stop mid sentence where I last placed it but it does not stop in the blank lines anymore making it all that more difficult to find.  How silly is that? How do I fix that one?

Apparently word-wrap doesn't work anymore as I cannot see both ends of the lines I am writing.  I have to use the HSB to read sentences longer than 25 words.  How do I fix this?  Is this a feature of this web site or another one in MS Office that needs repair?

Is there any prospect to have this program work to my benefit instead?

Word claims someone else is editing my document

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 10:08 AM PDT

I have a document stored on a network.  I move it to my hard drive to work on because of how slow the network is.  When I go to save the document one of two things happens:

1) I get told that someone else is editing the document, except there isn't anyone else editing the document.

2) I get a message saying that I have read only access, but nothing turns if off.

In both situations I have to resave the file with a different name.  Which isn't working, I now have multiple versions of documents in multiple folders when all I want to do is edit the document on my hard drive and then move it back into the network folder.  

What do I do?

Text highlighing in additional colors, beyond the 15 colors available

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 09:49 AM PDT

Word offers 15 colors for highlighting text. But except for yellow, they're sometimes too intense,  and they make the text difficult to read.

One alternative that I see is the paragraph shading, which offers many colors. However, that seems to work only for an entire paragraph. And even if I want to shad the entire paragraph, the shading goes to the end of the line, and does not stop at the paragraph mark.

Are there any other options for highlighting in colors that are less intense? Is there any way to shade a paragraph and have the shading stop at the paragraph mark?

Thanks.

Section Breaks

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 08:37 AM PDT

I am trying to figure out how to keep the text from rolling to a new page in the first section and not going to the second page which is the beginning of the next section.  The sections are next page breaks and page 1 has a different header from page 2.   Once I get this set I want to set the document as a template so that my users can enter their data but don't want the template editable.  Any help would be appreciated.

Open recent files command on Quick access toolbar in office 2013

How to place "open recent files" command on Quick access toolbar in MS Word 2013

 

I just upgraded to Office 2013 and have found that one of my most used shortcuts appears to no longer be available.   The icon that I could place on the quick access toolbar (QAT) to display a list of recently open files is no longer available.  I understand I can reach this list by clicking on file then click open then see the list.  If anyone from Microsoft sees this post – please consider allowing your customers the option and convenience of the former method and add the functionality back in the next update available for MS Word 2013.  If anyone knows how to get that shortcut back on the quick access toolbar I would surely appreciate telling me how to do this. I know how to customize the QAT the option just isn't there.

 

Thank you

Endnotes in Word

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 06:19 AM PDT

I have a large number of documents created with Word 97. These documents have endnotes. In that version it was possible to view the main text and the endnotes simultaneously, the former in a window on the top half of the screen, the latter in a window on the bottom half (with adjustable sizes). I can't figure out how to get Word 2013 to do the same and will be grateful for any advice.

Bluetooth Issues on Ipad while using a keyboard

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 03:32 AM PDT

I have major issues in using WORD on the Ipad with office 365.  Right now as i type this on the ipad with a keybord, its perfectly normal. When I try to type a word docuent in Office 365 the lag time is so slow for the kepboard to respond it takes 10 times longer to type a simple document. Ive checked for Office 365 updates and found nothing. The time it takes to type a simple document really renders the program useless to me to the point that I dont want to subscribe another year to something that doesnt work properly.  Anyone else have this issue and if so, have you found a solution? Its great to have WORD on the ipad and if it worked would be a HUGE plus as I do a lot of documents on the move which is why I didnt want to be tethered to a desk top version.  I have also noticed on the iphone I dont get the individual Microsoft icons for word, powerpoing and Excel like the ipad and I cant save to the actual device. I recently bought the iPhone 6 plus 128GB for this purpose and find I cant do it.

Thanks for any advise or help!!

Office 2013 Error Messages

Posted: 24 Oct 2014 03:13 AM PDT

I have successfully installed Office 2013, but consistently receive error messages, in particular one relating to Macros and won't open the document. It suggests changes be made to allow Macros in the "macro security settings" section of The Trust Centre. I have tried every option here, to no avail.

After clicking ok on this error message several times, another error message appears "changes have been made to the global template" and invites you to save or don't save. If save is selected the error message re-appears, and selecting don't save returns to the macro error message.

The error message details that the document being opened has been constructed with macros that need support and that this software doesn't have this.

Any suggestions would be very welcome...

SEQ and REF field code usage

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 04:42 PM PDT

We have a document that we are inserting a field code (SEQ) to consecutively number claims on an application, and then we want to refer back to other claims by number and we are using a bookmark (REF Code) there. For example: 

6. The system of claim 5, wherein some other stuff happens.

The 6 would be a SEQ code for the claim and the claim "5" uses a REF code to the bookmark for the prior claim. We are currently using a bookmark to the claim with a bookmark name for Claim 5. (Like CL5). so the field code looks like this:

{ REF CL5 \h  }

In a different document that came from somewhere else, instead of a manual bookmark, it uses a REF code with some kind of auto generated bookmark name. That code looks like this:

{ REF _Ref268462847 \h \* MERGEFORMAT }

That would work better for us because if claim 5 changes to claim 6 because another claim is inserted just before it, the bookmark names will become very confusing. 

I cannot figure out how to get those hidden bookmarks to generate or how to grab them when setting the REF field code. Can someone help me?
