    - Trying to show a dialogue hangs word I've been developing an application in vb.net that opens word (2000) and creates a document. Sometimes though word will start crashing when you try and close it, and now it hangs when I try and show a dialogue (such as save-as, paragraph etc.). Word just runs one of my CPU's just runs flat out and I can't recover it. I have acrobat 5 installed, and have had occasional problems with that, and also have some custom macro's installed which are corporate one's which I have no control over. Any idea's how I can get word back into shape without hassling IT again? Tag: Why does am I getting errors that close word every time I open th. Tag: 91101

    - After I installed Office '03, Word keeps giving me error messages. I installed Office '03 (Student and Teacher Edition) on a new computer, and Word is the only program that won't work. When I try to use Word, I get an error message that says "Word has encountered a problem and needs to close". Word then restarts. About 1 minute later, the same thing happens again. Needless to say, it's almost impossible to use Word. I ordered Office from Amazon.com, so I don't know if Amazon's the problem. Also, I've run several virus scans on my computer, so there are no viruses causing the problem. Any suggestions? Tag: Why does am I getting errors that close word every time I open th. Tag: 91094

    - Scanner Not Seen in Microsoft Office Document Scanning I have the full version of Office 2000 Professional which I normally use. I bought a computer that came with Works Suite 2002 which included Word 2002. I decided I only wanted Word 2000 on the machine to match my other Office 2000 applications, so I removed Word 2002. Unfortunately, that also removed the Microsoft Office Document Scanning application which I had used successfully with my Cannon N1240U scanner. Upon reinstalling Word 2002 (to get the scanning application back), I discovered it no longer sees my scanner (no scanner is listed in the combo box). Virtually all other scanning programs on my computer see the scanner and work fine (including Microsoft Picture It! Photo 2002 and Windows XP SP2 and other programs). Please help!

    - Office 2003 won't merge from Access 2 based program I am trying to help a prosecutors office with a problem merging documents that worked prior to installation of Office 2003 and Windows XP. This is a very legacy application and the developer refuses to try to fix the problem. The application was written in VB 4 and uses Access 2 databases. The merging attempts give the following errors: "Merge Errror (Word) #1056 (0)" on title bar of error message and message is "Not a valid filename." The file name is valid and the permissions have been checked. That is users can open the master merge document and it's associated recordless header file (.dat) for field selection. "31031 (0)" on title bar and message "Invalid source for link" 31004 (0) on title bar and message "No object" This merge is fine on Windows 98 and using Word 97. What is happening here? I there a way to correct the problem. The data is taken from multiple tables in the .mdb file and uses a fairly complex SQL statement to retrieve the record data. Could I create a named data source for these merge documents and obtain the data (from these multiple tables) using the newer Jet versions or OLE? How would I go about that?

    - PaperPort and Word Back in November I asked if anyone could tell me if two additions made to Word by ScanSoft's PaperPort Pro 9 Office could be removed. These were the "Print to PaperPort" command added to the File menu in Word and the button to do the same put on a toolbar. I said that they could both be taken off the normal way, but were then restored the next time the program was opened. There were some suggestions back (for which I was grateful), but nothing worked. I said that as a new version was coming, I'd wait and see if there were any changes. Just before Christmas I got PaperPort 10. It does exactly the same as its predecessor, and there is no option to prevent it adding its bits to Word. I note that they seem to be the very last things to load when Word is started up. So I tried asking PaperPort Support. After a couple of suggestions that didn't work, I got the comment: "The links in Microsoft Word are created by macros. Let me know if you still have that same problem after you have tried the above. Unfortunately there is not a way of deleting the PDF PaperPort macros in Word. However, you can try by deleting the printer drivers in case you do not need that feature." So my questions now, if anyone can help, are: -- where can the macros be being put in Word (or Office), since they do not get listed as Macros, as Templates and Add-Ins, or as COM Add-Ins? -- and if there is a software designer here, is it actually good design practice to include in your software "compulsory" macros affecting another company's products?

    - scrolling text in word Hey there, I am a little frustrated (it was really tough getting info about this in the knowledge base). I am becoming tempted to remove SP2. Through my careful watch, my computer never had a problem until this SP2 (she has plenty of security that I have the option to control *smile* and the SP2 firewall is disabled with that) and unfortunately most of the features with SP2 are not needed with my system-well time will tell with that, but it would be a pitty not to continue to receive updates if we don't have it. There should be a simple admin template, or something, available that would allow an experienced user to enable or disable this security feature "at the person's own risk" of course. Will this "security feature" prevent me from programming my office professional 2003 apps? I will be learning a little about that soon. Is it possible to enable these web tools through programming (visual basic or C# or something)? It is a bugger that things are offered with my Office Pro 2003 and included but disabled by another MS program without it being my desire *smile*. What do you think about some work arounds? Are there any out there? Kindest regards. Sincerely, Shannon Tag: Why does am I getting errors that close word every time I open th. Tag: 91065

    - Word 2003: Error 16389: Internal Error Hello, the following situation happens and I haven't yet found a workaround. I have a VB6 Standard Executable. I have early-bound references to objects in the Word 2003 Type Library. The project contains a reference to the "Microsoft Office 11.0 Type Library" as well as "Microsoft Word 11.0 Type Library". I have an open Document object with ActiveX controls stored in InlineShapes. The following reference is valid at run-time: Dim WordApp As New Word.Application 'Open a document ---->WordApp.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes.Count The last line returns a count, like 16. However, the following reference is invalid at run-time (but valid at compile time): WordApp.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(1).OLEFormat.Object Throws Error 16389: Internal Error. If I attempt to refer to this same property from within Word 2003 VBA, I successfully receive the ActiveX object. In this case, I'm expecting something out of Microsoft Forms 2.0, so in my VB6 project (in a Form's class module) I've declared Private WithEvents z As MSForms.CommandButton 'in anticipation of calling Set z = Wordapp.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes (1).OLEFormat.Object 'Throws 16389: Internal Error. This appears to be a major OLE fallacy and is currently a showstopper in my Office solution. I have yet to find a workaround; I've tried launching the DoVerb method on the OLEFormat object; I've tried selecting it, I've tried activating it, all the methods return some sort of error, although certain properties of the OLEFormat object can be retrieved. When I tried to convert these to Shape objects, they were incorrectly converted to Picture-type controls rather than simply floating CommandButton controls. It's absolutely critical that I enable an event-trapping reference to several ActiveX controls using a VB6 project as the Automation Client. If I were to re-create all of the InlineShapes as floating command buttons to begin with, would it work any better? The only reason I use InlineShapes is because they're easier to format than drawing-space objects - treating them like characters is extremely convenient. It would take hours to recreate all the controls as Shapes (since I can't simply convert them without them becoming Pictures), so if there's any other way, please let me know. I vaguely remember dealing with something along these lines many years ago when I was a much less skilled programmer and giving up on it completely. I am sadly disappointed that this has not been addressed since Office 97/VBE4.0, and I'm running Office 2003/VBE6.0. Please advise.

    - Borders in Label Templates All: Office Basic Edition 2003... We use an Avery label template to generate timecard labels for ever changing labor pool... We have document saved on the file server that contains employee name, department, and pay week. The problem... The borders on the template disappear for the payroll clerk. If I open the doc on any other PC, the borders are present. This only happens on her PC, and she is the primary user. Since employee turnover is quite high, there is constant editing happening to this doc. I have uninstalled and reinstalled her office, and to no avail... I have looked for border settings, and still can't solve this. Any ideas??? TIA, Lance Tag: Why does am I getting errors that close word every time I open th. Tag: 91039

    - Horizontal ruler inactive I'm using Word 2002 and I've had this same problem in previous versions as well. VERY frequently as I have several Word documents open (and maybe a couple of other applications), the horizontal ruler becomes inactive.

    - Word won't open documents I am about to go insane trying to figure out what is going on. I have several different users in different locations experiencing this problem. Word will either not open documents or it will give an error message. Sometimes it the problem will be with trying to print the document. All versions are word xp with sp2 and upgrading to Office 2003 does fix the problem. But I would rather not do that. Anyway, most of the time the error signature will have the modname of ole32.dll but I have seen a modname of clbcatq.dll. I have uninstalled office, run office clean and re-installed office.

    - Word should implement outline numbering correctly Word has always had problems with styles involving outline numbering, especially when one outline numbered style contains another outline numbered style. The problem seems to be worse on Word 2003. For example, I have a 100-page document with a major outlined numbered style (1, 1.1, 1.1.1) containing a minor outline numbered style (1, a, i). When I'm in the minor outlined numbered style, after "1" I'll type something and hit enter. Word makes a "2" for me, so I'll type something and hit enter. I'm expecting a "3" now, but sometimes Word will put a "1". Then after typing something and hitting enter, the erroneous "1" will become a "3", as it should have been originally, but Word makes another "1" for me instead of the expected "4". This is an annoyance, but what infuriates me is sometimes when I save the document, suddenly and for no reason Word screws up all my outline numbered styles. Numbering gets messed up, fonts get messed up, indentation gets messed up, and I have to manually renumber the document again. What's going on Bill? This is basic stuff that should work!

    - PostScript in PRINT field yeilds error The error occurs whenever the PRINT field is the first thing in the document (or header or footer), and when printing to a PCL (non-postscript) printer. Yes, I know that PostScript code won't execute on non-PS printers--but I'd like the document, if printed via PCL, to be error-free. (Which it is, except when the PRINT field is the very first thing.) I can't control what printers every document may be printed on. The error takes the form of alphanumeric characters overprinting the page, either at the very bottom of the page or at the approximate vertical location of the (otherwise invisible) PRINT field. The characters, which may be related to the actual PS code in the field, are spread horizontally across the page in no recognizable order. They overprint each other and anything else on the page. Has anyone else ever encountered this? Any ideas what to do? I'd rather not have to include a space or en space before this field--even if reduced in size and condensed it still would deform the line slightly. I am running Word 97, if that matters.

    - The Microsoft Word Insert File Menu Item Has Unreasonable Limitati For research purposes I wrote an application that reads a TXT file and makes a frequency analysis of the content of individual lines therein contained. I have a folder of 481 Microsoft Word documents (.DOC files). I opened a blank document and intended to fill it with the 481 documents concatenated so that I could save a new document as a TXT file. The Insert File menu item failed to fulfill my wishes. Even though I highlighted every file in the input folder, it added only about 10% of the highlighted files. There was no warning of this behavior. I found the problem as I examined the frequency distribution of lines and discovered that certain lines known to be in the 481 documents were unaccounted for. Is this a bug or a feature? I worked around the issue by using the Insert File function piecemeal: I performed an Insert on a few files at a time. -- William McIlroy Tag: Why does am I getting errors that close word every time I open th.

    - WORD temporary storage This question may sound a bit strange but where does WORD save data (even temporary data)? I know that opening a WORD document results in a copy of that document (renamed and begining with ~$) in the same path as the original. But does WORD save document edits (i.e., additions, deletions) anywhere else that are not intuitively obvious? Perhaps such storage is used for the Undo function. Here's a more specific scenario: I'm editing a Word document located on a network drive using the version of WORD stored on my local PC. Are there any remnants or evidence to be found on the local PC of that editing session under any circumstances (i.e., normal exit, Word Crash, Windows Crash, etc.).

    - Error message when starting Word When I click on a Word 2003 document, as the program loads I get the following error message: "The command cannot be performed because a dialog box is open. Click OK and close the open dialog boxes to continue." This only happens when I click on a Word doc to open Word that way. If I start Word and then select a file to load, I do not get this error message. As far as I can tell, there are no "dialog boxes" open. Could this be a problem with Norton Antivirus attempting to scan a file before it loads? Thanks for any help that you can provide. --Chuck Stewart Tag: Why does am I getting errors that close word every time I open th. Tag: 90974

    - random text justification I print documents pretty much all day (letters) and normally in the afternoon (or after a period of solid use), I print a document where all the text is scruched and force left justificed (not readable, printer types over and over text ). To get it to print correctly, I have to add some returns at top of page and then delete them and try to print letter again...anyone else having this problem? It is driving me crazy and I have been told that is not a printer issue but an issue with macros on my system... Tag: Why does am I getting errors that close word every time I open th. Tag: 90970

    - I have problems with availability of my documents/ files in Word. First I had troubles with my printer. I tried to fix the problem by myself, and I did something ( I don't know what!) which enabled opening any og my files, folders or documents in the Microsoft Office Professional 2003. I am an English lecturer at the University and a translator, and everything I do is stored there. Is there anyone there who could help me by way of distance remote assistance?

    - Every new Word document has my name typed into it automatically Every time I open a new Word document, my name is already typed into it. I tried changing the Normal Dot template. That didn't work. When I type . . . File Statistics Content . . . I see my name in Document Contents under Title, but I can't delete it. Any suggestions out there? -- francis from birmingham Tag: Why does am I getting errors that close word every time I open th. Tag: 90961
