Emails to client have no page numbers & line numbers are nuts {URG
I need help and fast. Helping a friend with doctoral dissertation. He cannot
see any page numbers. He says he uses Win2000 (so do I). Then he says he doesn't have Word after years of working together! (???). He has only "rtf." I assure him he's fine. However, I do not like that the once very obvious page numbers I could see are not almost ghostly they are so light grey. This changed following some update. I have looked until I'm silly in the head. He has to get this out before July 1 (well before!), and this is June 26, and he's just now found out, thus I'm just finding out. Also, I need to number lines for him. Every single filled or empty line is numbered even tho' I choose a paragraph and tell it to number the lines. Each line must flow consecutively throughout the document. His name and ID do not need to be numbered nor do lines holding no information. I got the first page to number just lines that had typing (in double-spaced format), but I can't get it to replicate this on next four or five pages. He's spent about 9 hours with it, and I've spent about 4 hours now, and I've used Word 2000 for a very long time. Help and quickly please. |

Given the criticality of the problem and the apparent lack of skills on the
part of both of you (not to mention the presumed value of your time), put the file on a CD, take it down to your nearest secretarial agency, and purchase 20 minutes of their time. The problem is actually trivial, but if a pair of post-grads haven't found the solution in 13 hours of effort, you're not seeing the forest for the woodchip mill. "Lindsay" wrote in message ...
