| Word 2013: Why doesn't bullets show up?? Posted: 10 Apr 2015 03:26 PM PDT I'm using Word 2013. I've been using tracking (something I'm new at, and honestly I don't know if this is relevant or not). I saved the Word document, accepted all changes and saved it again. Then I made a copy of the document. Made sure that track was back on (it wasn't turned off, I guess that's OK). The I put in a Heading 1, wrote a small amount and did a carriage return. For some reason I don't understand, Word stayed in the Heading 1 format, which I didn't want. I wanted it go to Normal, so I clicked on that in the ribbon. Then I clicked on the bullet button in the ribbon because I want a bulleted list. Only, Word refuses to put a bullet there. No matter what shape/glyph I use for the bullet, Word steadfastly refuses to put it there. OK, I give up. Why is Word refusing to put any bullet/glyph there? |
| What is the depth of header/footer in Word 2010? Posted: 10 Apr 2015 02:20 PM PDT I am trying to determine the maximum dimensions that an image can be when it is inserted image file in my Word document. My Word document has 1/2" margins on all sides, plus a header and a footer. How can I tell how much space I have remaining for my image file? I cannot figure out a way to determine how much space the header and footer uses. |

| Syntax Error! Calculating Mail Merge Fields Posted: 10 Apr 2015 01:29 PM PDT I hope someone can help. I am getting a Syntax Error! when trying to calculate a mail merged field in Word 2013. I use CTRL+F9 to add the {} and within those brackets I insert the Merge Field and create the expression as follows, but get a SyntaxError! {= {MERGEFIELD Setup___Once_Off_Fee} * 1.14} I am trying to do this from CRM 2013 Mail Merge Fields and have been told that the problem occurs with the fields of type currency in CRM. I was able to use the expression just fine with numeric field. I guess the currency symbol is causing the problem. Can someone help to strip off the currency symbol and do the calculation? |
| Deleted personal template names still appear in Backstage in Word 2013 Posted: 10 Apr 2015 01:15 PM PDT I created several templates, then selected the ones I wish to keep. The others I deleted from the Templates folder, while Word was closed. But those templates--or their names at least--still appear in the list of choices in Backstage when I tell Word to create a New document. If I click on one of them, I get this error message: "Sorry, we couldn't find your file. Is it possible it was moved, renamed or deleted?" How do completely get rid of all traces of those templates? ... My own answer: I searched the Registry for all mention of those titles, and deleted them wherever I found them. It worked; they're gone. It also deleted the memory of which templates I had "pinned" as my favourites. But that was easy to fix, by just pointing and clicking them again. By the way, my favourite tool for searching the Registry: "Registrar Registry Manager" by Resplendence. The free version for home use is at: http://www.resplendence.com/registrar_home. It's WAY faster than the Windows Registry Editor: it searches the entire registry and lists all results in less than 60 seconds! |
| Add static source list in word document to source manager Posted: 10 Apr 2015 12:42 PM PDT Hello, I was wondering if it is possible to add a list of static references to the source manager in Word without having to add each reference one at a time? I have an article I wrote, and I want to add the static reference list to the source manager. Thanks |

| Posted: 10 Apr 2015 11:36 AM PDT I need to add a date field to a Word doc (template) that meets certain criteria: - it will reappear in several different places in the doc, such that updating it in one place updates it everywhere - it can be manually updated to any date whatsoever, without any reference to today's date, create date, save date, etc. (The date reflects various project events outside the document, such as release cycles and approvals.) This date may be a current date, or it may be past or future. - the field never updates automatically, only when a user manually changes it (necessary to avoid a 3-month-old document being mistaken for a new one because the date field changes every time it's opened). -- This would seem to put the built-in date fields out of the running, as far as I can tell, which is unfortunate. I know such a field is possible, because I've worked with docs that include one in other organizations. Unfortunately, I don't have any of those old docs available to me, or I'd just copy/paste that field instead of trying to recreate it. Is there a simple way to do what I want? |
| Posted: 10 Apr 2015 11:24 AM PDT First of all, let me explain that I do understand how sections work in Word. I have a document with over 20 sections, and each one starts over at page 1. Everything is fine until I reach section 25. Then it inexplicably goes from page 1 to page 3. I have tried the "format page number" option. When I tell it to start at 2, it still displays 3, because I guess it thinks page 1 should be read as 2. But when I tell it to start at page 1, it still shows 3 instead of 2. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? Thanks. |

| Word 2007 Page x of y. y = x not y Posted: 10 Apr 2015 09:31 AM PDT I set up page numbering for Page x of y. Everything looks fine in print layout , but when I print the document, the page numbering prints Page 1 of 1, Page 2 of 2, Page 3 of 3 instead of Page 1 of 3, Page 2 of 3, Page 3 of 3. How do I fix this problem? |
| Posted: 10 Apr 2015 07:58 AM PDT I have a document that I have numbered correctly in the .docx format, however when I save it to a pdf file, at page 10, it starts numbering twice. For example, on page 10 at the bottom it shows 10 and directly underneath it a 0 and continues on from there with the dual numbers. This is only happening when I save it as a PDF. Since it doesn't show in the docx format, I'm not sure how to remove the dual page numbers. (I'm working on a MacBook Pro.) |

| Posted: 10 Apr 2015 05:26 AM PDT Hi, I've got kind of an odd problem. I have a document that I created which was based on a template (.dotx) that I also created. Whenever I try to open the docx (note ... not the template, the actual document) I get a message on the bottom right of the Word (Office 2013) screen stating that it's trying to open the .dotx file. It spins and spins and never errors or opens the actual document. The longest I've let it run is 3 hours on its own. Word never reported any errors. I end up killing Word, re-opening Word and then my document loads. My Word Document (.docx) is located on my PERSONAL OneDrive. The Word Template (.dotx) that the document is based on is save on my OneDrive for Business location. Might that be the problem? Is there a way to change my Word Document to change the location of the template that the document is based on? Thanks a bunch. --- Val |
| Bibliography and citations disappeared after emailing Word Document Posted: 10 Apr 2015 01:18 AM PDT So I'm a student and I've been writing an essay for the past two weeks and emailing it, along with other pieces of work, to myself back and forth with no issues. I have been doing this for the past 4 years. Now, all of a sudden, Word has decided that even if I do send the document to myself so I can work at home/University library, I lose all my references, citations, EndNotes, everything. I know that from one computer I can get the refences back by clicking "Manage Sources", which I did and copied all my citations back into the document hoping it would save and sent it back to myself. But. Everything has disappeared again, and on manage sources from my laptop, the only sources I find are the ones I have manually put in from other essays and not this one. Is there a way I can get my sources back without causing too much hassle? Or just go back to being able to email myself Word documents and enjoying the fact that my sources come along with it. I have the latest version of Word on my laptop (Student account) which I downloaded in November, the computers at my Uni use an older version, but I'm pretty sure this is not the case as the problem only arose a few days ago and before then I've been able to keep my references when sending the document through the email. My essay is due tonight, so a speedy response will be more than appreciated. Thank you!! |
| Word 2013 open files as read only Posted: 10 Apr 2015 01:02 AM PDT This problem happens intermittently. Microsoft word 2013 open word 2003 files as read only The pc runs Windows 7 pro and MS Office 2013 home & business edition. The company file server has a ton of office documents saved in various office versions. A mass conversion of all the files to the latest format would be quite a project and not really an option. The permutation that is problematic and repeatable is when a user opens a MS word file saved in word 97-2003 format, the file opens in read only mode or it will prompt and say "<filename> was last opened as read-only. Do you want to open as read-only again?" Seeking next steps so that all Word files simply open when accessed, so they can be used or closed without being in read only or being asked about read-only. |
| word docs in office 2010 locked out of my own documents Posted: 09 Apr 2015 10:19 PM PDT Hi A document in Office 2010 is advising of being locked by another user. The user is the only person who users the computer and cannot get into the file to modify it. Option to read only or not even that sometimes. Have you any suggestions - step by step instructions please? Cheers Steve |
| Can't open Word files that other people send to me Posted: 09 Apr 2015 08:00 PM PDT I am running Office 2013 on Windows 8.1. When someone sends me a .docx file in mail and I try to open it (either by clicking on it in the mail message or by saving it to a directory where I have my other documents and then trying to open it from Word), I get an error message something like this: Word experienced an error trying to open the file Check permissions Make sure you have sufficient memory and disk space Try opening with the text recovery converter. This happens no matter who sends me a docx file and other people who receive the file are able to open it. I'm having no problem opening my own files or opening other attachments, such as photos that people send me. |
| Posted: 09 Apr 2015 07:53 PM PDT 1. I should have asked this years ago but I was sure I knew the answer. Is there any way to put the fields not inline with the text but off to the right in the markup area or somewhere not inline? Having them inline complicates things drastically. 2. On another subject, I note with dismay that if a TOC or an index is updated before the whole doc is read in, the TOC entries and index are completely wrong, with no warning. How could they do something like that? |
| Word Not Showing Paper Size Correctly On-Screen (8.5 x 11 looks like the proportions of 3 x 5) Posted: 09 Apr 2015 06:32 PM PDT I am using Office 2007 Non-Commercial Use Only. Screenshot below. I cannot scroll farther up or down. I have checked Page Layout > Paper Size, changed it, changed it back, but to no avail. Any ideas (other than using LibreOffice, which I probably will switch back to!) And feel free to read my essay on density if you so desire! |
| MS Word 2007 - How to Identify Graphic Image Filenames Posted: 09 Apr 2015 04:38 PM PDT I have a long document with a number of graphic files embedded (mainly screenshots.) I have put captions on them to create a table of figures - all good. But I now have to hand over the document AND all the graphic files as files. So is there any way I can ID the filename of the source files inside MS Word? Because then I could add the caption number to the filename, which would make the job a lot easier for the person I'm handing over to. (The one thing I tried was exporting the doco as HTML and then lookng at the image files as source files - but they've simply been named image00X. I suspect the answer is 'no' but thought I would ask before I go off and do it manually. ) |
| How can a large gap in between MS Word 2013 table rows be reduced? Posted: 09 Apr 2015 04:12 PM PDT Hi! I'm working in a lengthy table in MS Word 2013 and have a large gap between rows that I would like to eliminate. The gap leaves about 80% of one of the first page in the image below blank. The subsequent row on the second page covers nearly the next two full pages of the document. (There is no page break in the content in the second row.) How do I get a portion of the second row to "bump up" to fill the gap in the first page? |
