Page wrong size

Chlscout — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 21:09:50 GMT

Using Word 2007 on XP. All updated.

When I start a new page (ctrl+N or via menu) Word is not setting the right size and view is way out, e.g. set page as A4 with 1cm margins all round, get a page 28cm x 21cm (found size by drawing rectangle within page constraints and checking format).

Same happens on A3

Any ideas?

(Lets lights, light up your Christmas)

Use a combination of candles and lights for Christmas decor.Lighting
has almost taken over Christmas candles as they burn for longer
periods of time and are comparably safer for decoration purposes.
Especially Christmas trees have turned more charming, sparkling and
magical with light strands illuminating them. With time, the art of
installing Christmas lights has evolved to the level where it has
become an art in itself. Lets see how to choose the color or
combination of color of lights, check for the load of electricity that
you can safely use, the different patterns in which to arrange the
strings of light and how to install Christmas lights.

(These types of Innovative lights will definetly add to your Christmas
decor)

Here are the tips to use:

The most common color combinations appropriate for the Christmas
season include red, green and copper lights that denote festivity;
blue and green lights for more subdued arrangements; novelty
combinations such as blue and red lights; and mauve, blue and copper
lights.
While you can use a combo of as many as five colors for coniferous
trees, use not more than three colors for deciduous trees.
Any color of light used with white does not show itself well, so if
are planning to use white lights, stick to the monochromatic scheme.
Use low watt bulbs for strings and indoor light decoration but you
will need high watt bulbs for outdoor decorations and lights that will
be viewed from a distance.
Dip the socket end of the light bulb in petroleum jelly before fitting
it into the socket string. This will prevent corrosion in the socket
and will make it easier to pull out the bulb from it later.
Tape all connections well with electrical tape to avoid short-
circuits.
Lights installed on the trees to keep up with its growth look quite
graceful.
Do not try to climb the branches of the tree you want to decorate. Use
stepladder instead.
Work on the tree from top to bottom and from inside to outside for
ease of work and safety purposes.

The best advice when it comes to Christmas decorating is "plan ahead".
Decide whether you plan to use Christmas decors both indoors and
outdoors, how many you'll need and where you'll place them. Decide
whether each room will have a unique decor theme or if one theme will
carry from room to room. As you can see there is a lot to consider
when it comes to Christmas decorating. While some people love the
spontaneous approach, others hate it. If you're one of the latter,
make a detailed plan. This is especially true if you have a
sophisticated theme in mind for your Christmas decors. Everyone has
driven past lawns with the most beautifully laid out decor. Do you
think they just threw those decor up? Probably not. They were probably
working from a rough floor plan.

(Lights add new dimensions to outdoor christmas decor)

You Can�t Go Wrong

If, however, you're a spontaneous decorator, simply go where your
imagination takes you. Does the stairway need some garland? Sure, why
not! How about a mantle full of nutcracker dolls? Maybe some Christmas
candles on that table would look great. When it comes to Christmas
decorations, there is no right or wrong way to approach it. Christmas
is a rich holiday full of many diverse traditions. Express it in the
way that is uniquely you; use any or as many Christmas decor as you
want

Button Macro for Caclulating in Word Tables

Ned23 — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 20:23:02 GMT

Can anyone can point me to an example of a macro that you would assign to a
command button in Word 2007 that calculates a result based on values from
multiple cells in one table and puts that result in another cell in a
separate table?

I've been told that I cannot link Excel spreadsheets for this application;
it has to be stand-alone Word. So, I either have to do this in Word or not
do it.

Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks.

location of styles/formatting frame

removing all headers and footers[_2_] — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 20:13:03 GMT

All of a sudden, as I loaded and reloaded a file, the styles and formatting
pane, went from a pane on the right (vertical) to a horizontal pane at the
bottom. How do I reset it ? I do not see that option in the edit options
window? thanks, JF

Data source

redant — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 19:57:01 GMT

I use a data source in word 2003 to populate a master document for work.
You open the master document and the merge is attached in the header.
In the data source there are a number of fields dates, times, names,
addresses and so on. About 39 fields in total.

The first 18 fields seem to have no problem but all the other fields if only
keyed into once or twice revert back to what was there when you opened the
data source ie the last data that was keyed in and saved.

So if you key into all the fields once and close the data soures and then
click merge you find the wrong data has been merged.

To resolve this I have to key in bogus data into every field 3 or 4 times
before keying in the correct data, then the document merges sucessfully.

Can anybody tell me how this can be resolved?

Outlook address books and Word macros

DonnaB — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 19:52:00 GMT

A co-worker is using Word XP and Outlook 2007. She is French speaking so I
am requesting information on her behalf.

We have recently changed access to read-only rights for the majority of our
employees using shared address lists in Outlook 2007 (with Exchange). This
was done to avoid errors in the address books.

Now her Word macros cannot access the shared address lists. She has created
buttons in .dot files that several employees use to open a window identical
to Outlook Tools, Address Book. When they click a contact from this shared
address book then click OK, the information is placed throughout the document
with the help of bookmarks. Can this same function be used without having to
change the access lists for more complete access? She said that her macro
has not worked since she changed access type to read-only.

I will post this in both Outlook and Word forums. Any help or suggestions
are appreciated.

format changes unexpectedly

little-buddie — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 19:31:03 GMT

I am working in a Word 2003 document. I want to enter a tag such as
. The style of this tag is Subparagraph Tag Title. It comes at
the end of a Subparagraph Title. Both the Subparagraph Title and The
Subparagraph Tag Titile are underlined. The Subparagraph Title is not bold,
the Subparagraph Tag Title is bold. The underline is not suppose to be bold.
When I start typing reporting, and when I enter the 2nd r, the underline
becomes bolded. This happens randomly (but not always) throughout the
document and is not always the same letter or letter position. I spent half
a day yesterday trying to debug this to no avail. If anyone has seen this
behavior and can explain it, I will be very grateful. Thanks.

Word 2007 Table of Contents Dialog Box: WHERE????

How to insert page number X of Y ?

Blue Max — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 18:58:44 GMT

We want a footer that includes "Page X of Y" where X equals the page number
and Y equals total pages. The problem, however, is that our footers often
already exists and includes a fair amount of custom design work. In our
experience, selecting a page number from the gallery with the proper format,
replaces the existing footer.

Therefore, how does one simply insert the codes for 'current page' and
'total pages' into the existing text of the footer in order to preserve the
current design?

mail merge file button

cmccabe — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 18:28:09 GMT

Hello,

I want to add a command button to a mail merge. The code I am using to
generate the button is
Sub Test()

'Add a command button to a new document
Dim doc As Word.Document
Dim shp As Word.InlineShape
Set doc = Documents.Add

Set shp =
doc.Content.InlineShapes.AddOLEControl(ClassType:= "Forms.CommandButton.1")
shp.OLEFormat.Object.Caption = "Click Here"

'Add a procedure for the click event of the inlineshape
'**Note: The click event resides in the This Document module
Dim sCode As String
sCode = "Private Sub " & shp.OLEFormat.Object.Name & "_Click()" & vbCrLf
& _
" MsgBox ""You Clicked the CommandButton""" & vbCrLf & _
"End Sub"
doc.VBProject.VBComponents("ThisDocument").CodeMod ule.AddFromString sCode

End Sub

This code creates a button in the document that when clicked displays the
"You clicked the CommandButton". Instead of this message I would like it to
goto a specified location. Any ideas on how to do this would be appreciated.
Thanks.
