 - 5pg document disappeared when Ctrl/Alt button touched! Where is te Opened file folder in "my documents". Selected existing file, renamed it, pressed save as, and 5 pages of new text and five hours later when in last paragraph proofing, hit either Ctrl or Alt button inadvertently and screen became... blank-all white. Closed doc. and file. Opened back up but was still all blank but new document had new title, date and 41kb of content was noted in window icon as being in folder with other doc's. So where is my five pages of text and how do I get it back on screen when this new document icon enclosure says all the text is there,(41kb), and the folder screen is still showing this icon document is in folder?

 - Word File Permission Error I have been using a USB flash drive to store my word documents. Recently, I have been unable to save my word documents because of a file permission error. How do I correct this so I can use my flash drive again to save documents? Also, there are many hidden temporary files on the USB drive. Would this have any impact on the saving problem?

 - Most of HTML doc goes blank Just started using Office 2000 Word last week to create prototype of web page. Noticed last week if Tab key pressed while typing text or to create an indent, page blinked once or twice, then document appeared blank except for very top of document that contains a jpg file and some short text in large font with a shaded background. Select File, Exit, and when asked about Save Changes? answer No. Restart document, everything since last save gone, but at least have the HTML file to continue to work with. This week, avoided ever pressing Tab key, added hundreds of lines of text (bottom of screen says 19 pages in document), 6 images, several tables, hyperlinks to PowerPoint Shows. All that working o.k.. But now when I try to add several blank lines by pressing Enter key or type more than several dozen words or try to add a table or add an image, same scenario as pressing the Tab key last week, screen blinks once or twice, content is gone except for image and large block font with shading at top and blinking cursor flush left margin. Bottom of screen says 19 of 19 as if Word thinks there are still 19 pages of content, but press the Up cursor arrow and it suddenly says 1 of 19 at the bottom of the screen. Press down cursor arrow, it says 19 of 19. No error messages, no application faults, etc. Any thoughts on what may be the problem would be appreciated; estimate it would take me two days to recreate everything I've done so far.

 - InsertGraphicalHorizontalLine doesn't work. Hi, posted the problem in parent Word Newsgroup but no effective solution was found. When clicking INSERT LINE at the bottom or Borders and Shades screen from Format menu, instead to open the (fancy) lines list screen, it opens the Insert Picture screen. If launching the InsertGraphicalHorizontalLine command (after inserting it at any menu) it also launch the Insert Picture screen instead. There is no other InsertGraphicalHorizontalLine macro anywhere that could be hijacking the command. The .gif fancy lines images are there in a subdirectory along with the lines.dll, that was also copy from a working machine just to make sure. Word was removed and reinstaled by the Office installer, problem still. Office "check and repair" solved nothing. Any idea? Thank you. Tag: Commands gone missing! Tag: 102826

 - attached files can't be opened We are running Word 2002 on Windows XP (Home). Attached files saved as Word .doc (and copy received OK by sender ) come with "scrambled" letters and can't be opened (are read as .dat with a systems danger warning). The work around is to save the file in Word, re-name to .doc - this restores the file. I don't know the sender's version of Word but it came on a recently purchased laptop. Is this a version compatibility problem? Regards Lila Tag: Commands gone missing! Tag: 102821

 - Embedded Excel file reading as corrupt (but isn't) I embedded an Excel file in a Word document, as I've done many times before. I can double-click and view the file fine, but two colleagues can't.

 - Word/Outlook/Excel Freezes after long time idle. Hi All, We are running the above on Terminal Server/Citrix PS4. We have an annoying issue where (seemingly) at random, peoples sessions go into high CPU utilisation when running Word and/or Excel and/or Outlook and/or IE and even sometime Acrobat.exe. I have noticed that this most frequently happens where the user has been away from their desk for 20+ minutes and their session is idle. As soon as they access any of those idle applications, away it goes. Usually its 2 applications going wild at once, both with around 40-50% CPU each. Sometimes CPU Management will contain that useage thereby limiting the carnage, but quite often it doesnt and sends the whole server into la la land. When we manage to kill one of the offending processes, the 'other' one takes over at 100% - so both have to be killed and sometimes a third. I am running: Windows 2003 SP1 Citrix PS4 Enterprise+Rollup Office 2003 SP1 I have not been able to find any errors in event logs or any other evidence as to what is going on, nor have I been able to replicate it (aside from fluke). Any suggestions as to how I can tackle this one? Tag: Commands gone missing! Tag: 102772

 - TAB does not advance fields in Forms I have created a simple Form in Word 2002, without using any macros other than TextForm fields and Formula fields with simple calculations, and Calculate on Exit selected. The Form is password protected. Most users have no problems using it. One user, with Word 2003, says that TAB does not advance to the next field. Consequently, none of the calculations work, and the form is not useable. Any ideas why TAB would not advance to the subsequent fields? Could it be something in the Form, or in his system?

 - Word won't let me delete some documents In "open files", I sometimes have trouble deleting documents. I will select the file name, then hit "delete". Word tells me that the file is in use by another person or program. However, it isn't. If I close Word, then open it again, I can now delete the document, but then will have trouble with another document. This happens most often with some of my old .wpd files, although it has happened with .doc files too. I have the viewer open at the time too. Tag: Commands gone missing! Tag: 102769

 - Error Message - unclear I'm unable to use MS Office help online or follow internet links in Word documents, but everything else about my internet works great.

 - =?Utf-8?Q?The_AutoCorrect_setting_in_Word_?= Yes, I understand that this can be undone with Ctrl+Z. Yes, I understand that I can fix this permantely with Alt+i, a, x and changing the setting. The point is that this is a rotten default setting. Didn't somebody on the Human factors side do a usability test? Users make lists more often than they will do. If the counter-argument is that the "AutoList" feature should be the preferred way of making lists, you are still wrong. Users will make lists within the text of a paragraph more often than needing to do the copyright symbol. For example, "This feature is: (a) ill-conceived, (b) not thoroughly user-tested, and (c) far from obvious on how to turn it off. Therefore it is poor design." While this may be a good setting, it is not a good default setting and it detracts from the overall utility of AutoCorrect. Finally, I strongly urge against having "Clippy" warn the user about the AutoCorrect (c) to Â© as a solution to the usability issue. Users who don't like "Clippy" absolutely despise him/her/it. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

 - Word 2003 table indentation problem I'm running Word 2003 (without any service packs) on a Windows XP Pro SP2 system. My document is currently 97 pages long, with a number of tables on certain pages. My problem is, that for no reason whatsoever, Word decided to change the left indentation of all the tables in my document so that all of them are 0.85cm indented. I can solve the problem by highlighting the table and selecting Format>Paragraph and changing the "Left" box under the heading Indentation back to 0. However, this is very long winded due to the size of my document and the amount of tables I have in it. Does anyone know why this has happened? Also, how can I get it to revert back to normal indentation as I originally formatted it, without selecting each table individually? Thanks in advance. Tag: Commands gone missing! Tag: 102752

 - Word 2003 - Print dialogue box - slow When printing from Word 2003 it takes roughly 2 minutes for the list of printers to display. We have 400+ printers installed (due to a large terminal server environment) The problem is reproducable on a non-terminal server environment using fully patched Windows 2000 and Windows 2003. I have tried Word 2003, Word 2003 SP1 and Word 2003 SP2 spoolsv.exe and winword.exe reach high cpu usage ONLY when waiting for the print dialogue box to open. Monitoring with regmon, Winword is trawling through the registry in some odd areas. If I print using the default printer by clicking printing from the toolbar the document prints. No other applications such as Excel, powerpoint, notepad etc have problems, each displaying the dialogue box immediatly (even with 400+ printers installed) Any thoughts? Thanks, Duncan.

For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp."" I left no Windows, Driver or Office update and every thing on my computer is up to date. Any helpful information regarding this will be highly appreciated. Regards to all, Sameh Ghanem sghanem@hotmail.com Tag: Commands gone missing! Tag: 102735

 - How can I get back a missing option under Format? I've suddenly lost the Paragraph option on the Format option. What can I do to get it back? I've tried repairing the program with no luck. The only way I can see the Paragraph option is by right-clicking on the text, but that's very time consuming. Word won't recognize the keystroke entries either for Format > Paragraph. What should I try next? Tag: Commands gone missing! Tag: 102734

 - word and excel problems reading files suddenly I can't open word or excel files. Word give me a "file unavailable" message and Excel givs me "can't read file" message. I've tried all save files asnd even created some new ones but as soon as save them I can't open them again. Any help? using microsoft office XP Tag: Commands gone missing! Tag: 102731

I have somehow lost the "Insert", "Format" and "Tools" Commands (i.e. which
open the respective Menus) from the top of the screen in Word 2000.

The Knowledge Base suggests I could probably reset the Commands and Toolbars
if I could get into the Tools Menu - but that is one of the Commands that
has disappeared, so I can't access the Tools Menu!

Any help gratefully received.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/MissingMenusEtc.htm

For future reference, though, note that there are numerous ways to get to
the Customize dialog; Tools | Customize is just one of them. Here are some
others:

1. View | Toolbars | Customize...

2. Right-click on any toolbar or menu and choose Customize...

3. Double-click on the empty area of any toolbar.

4. Click on the arrow at the end of any toolbar, choose Add or Remove
Buttons, then Customize...
