word 2007 problems
I have a amazing problem with Word 2007. When I open word document containing
a table or when I open a new document and I insert a table, I can not edit my document (Typing, selecting etc...). Worst if I try to open the word options, they are freezed. The only solution I have is to close and reopen word but without working with tables. I tried to create another profile and I do not have the sme behaviour.... Can anybody help me te get out of this???? Thanks Nicolas Oggier |

word 2007 problems
I installed WORD 2007 a month ago and have been very happy with it. As a
writer, I recently submitted a manuscript that I had saved in a .doc format to a literary agent, via email. I was horrified to learn today that for some strange reason that all of my contractions are appearing as wasn=t instead of wasn't. I may be a total ninny when it comes to computers but I do know how to write. Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? And PLEASE explain in ninny language... I would appreciate any help!

Had your document originally been created in WordPerfect? If so, it may have
contained apostrophes in the WP Typographic Symbols font. This is not noticeable till the document is opened on a machine that doesn't have that font installed. -- Suzanne S.

Suzanne,
Thank you for responding. Yes, the document was originally created in Word Perfect about 6 months ago. I can't ask every literary agent and publisher I submit to to install that font. Is there any other way to solve the problem? Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Had your document originally been created in WordPerfect?

Unfortunately, the only way to solve it is to replace the characters in
question in your own document. To facilitate finding them, you might temporarily uninstall that font (just move it from the Fonts folder to another one); then you'll see the same problem in your documents and will have to use Find and Replace to correct it. Alternatively, locate one of the offending apostrophes, quotes, dashes, etc., and copy/paste it into the "Find what" box of the Replace dialog. Type the correct character into "Replace with" (just a straight quote or apostrophe will do, as Word will AutoFormat them). Then Replace. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/...aceSymbols.htm for more on replacing symbols. -- Suzanne S.
