Question about tables.
I have a 2-column table into which I want to
paste text.
If the first column of the table is too small
for the total text, how can I make the excess
flow into the second column of the table
automatically?

How can I turn off the"protection" feature for a form...rop
I created a 3 page form with form fields (check boxes etc) for several people
in my office to use. One of the users want to add a 4th page that she can
type notes into. Is there any way that I can allow her to type into this 4th
page without having to call up the "forms' toolbar and turn off the
protection every time she wants to type. Tag: ADDRESS LABEL TEMPLATE FOR AVERY L7164 Tag: 89140
Forms Fields not active for users
I have created a Word 2003 form that uses a combination of ActiveX
checkboxes and ActiveX radio buttons as form elements. I make sure to leave
Design View, then Protect the document, usually by using Tools > Protect
Document and selecting Filling in forms as the Editing Restriction.
The problem is that when I reopen the document, first I get teh stupid "open
as read-only" prompt which I know my end users might also see, but worse,
none of the form elements respond to clicks so the values cannot get set. I
am not sure what I am doing wrong, since when I leave Design Mode and
Protect the document before I close Word on my machine everything works
great.
Any suggestions. I wish Word had a radio button Form element so I did not
have to use the ActiveX controls...I think it would make this much easier.

Form Fields in Protected Document
I have a document with form fields for entering text. I can type and the
field will expand to accomodate my text. I can format the text with bold,
italic, bullets, etc.
However, when I protect the document so that noone changes the text outside
the fields, I can no longer format the text inside the fields. I can only
enter unformatted text and most of the formatting controls are disabled.
Is there a way to allow formatting of form field text when a document is
protected? Tag: ADDRESS LABEL TEMPLATE FOR AVERY L7164 Tag: 89126
Import Data
My apologies if this is in the wrong spot, I could find no obvious
place for it.
Is it possible to import a .CSV file into an existing .XLS? I want to
bring the data into a spreadsheet inside a macro, but I don't want to
have to use the file name of the spreadsheet, only the name of the
.CSV file. That way, I can use the same macro no matter what the file
is named.
Another alternative, is there a way to get the name of the spreadsheet
within the VB code, then I could just interrogate the spreadsheet for
it's name, open the .CSV file and then do my copy/paste operation to
get the data where I want it.

multi-level bullet lists
New user having fits with bullet lists.
I have a completed document and I'm trying to separate into the proper

letters a), b), c), etc.
Inbetween #3 and #4 I have a heading that I want to become #4. I hit the

<CTRL>, <ALT>, and <ENTER> with no luck. Can't find the solution in help

How do I make that happen?
While I'm at it, how do I form new 1st level bullets?

Exclusion spell file
Hi all
Am using Word 2000 with all latest updates on W98.
I needed to exclude one word from the spell and followed all the
instructions. The main dictionary file (Australian) was in
C;\programfiles\common files\microsoft shared\PROOF
so I put my *.exc file there too. All was OK.
Then I dragged the new file from explorer to the desktop, and added two
new words. Now nothing works, even the first word (that did before). I
have deleted from the desktop (which seemed to cause the problem) and
then deleted under explorer and started all over again. Nothing works.

Exam question wrong about Word? Opinions, please!
I had an exam in which the following question was asked:
http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c180/digitaltoast/OCR_ICT_L2_602_q22.png
(You may need to "click the pic" to make it full size)
There were 4 questions, but as we were under exam conditions, I had to do a
rather clandestine screen dump to the fileserver, so I didn't get the other
two options, but there were regarding alignment, I think "paragraph
alignment" and "indent". Definitely nothing to do with it.
So, we are left with "font" and "font size".
Definitely not font. But not font size either! So, I called an invigilator
over. She scratched her head, and along came another one.
Eventually, they said "skip that question, see us after".
So, I was sent to the the Office expert, who said "Ah, this is font - the
font size is different".
She then struggled to demonstrate it on Word 2000. She was able to make a
bullet change size, but could not make the line text the SAME size as shown,
AND get the font size dropdown to show a consistant font.
We then tried it on Word 2002. This time, she was able to highlight the
bullets, and make them change size.
But this time they didn't change pattern!
She gave up and said "it must be a different version, I don't know, but the
question cannot be wrong."
This is the ONE question I got wrong (because I hadn't answered it), had
this question been possible, I would have got 100%.
Yes, I still passed, but I'd like to get it sorted properly, for the sake of
other people in the future.
So, before I make a fool of myself to the exam board, is there ANY way this
question CAN be right?
For me, it was just about the satisfaction of getting 100%, but for someone
else, that question might be the difference between pass and fail. Tag: ADDRESS LABEL TEMPLATE FOR AVERY L7164 Tag: 89032

creating online forms
Hello,
I'm trying to develop an online questionnaire to access people's
satisfaction with an assessment tool. I want to email the questionnaire to
people, ask them to fill it out, and then email it back. The only way I
found to do this is to create a webform with a 'submit' button included at
the bottom. When I formatted the submit button, I set the submit form method
to 'POST'. The email response I get back contains the information but it
includes a series of extra numbers and symbols. Two questions then,
(1) Is there an easier way of doing this?
(2) Is there some way to open the sent text file within the questionnaire
without the extra text and symbols?

Still frustrated trying to add buttons!
It seems like adding menu command and macro buttons to my toolbars has
become specific to documents, or at least Word instances, in Word XP. I was
in Word 2000 last month, and had no problems adding a button for a menu
command or a macro to a toolbar - it would be there the next time I opened
Word, and it would be there for every document. Not so in Word XP - a
button added may not be there the next time I open a different document.
For example, I am using strike-through a lot on my current report, so I
added the button through Tools >> Customize. I can open the report doc
again and it's still there. While the report doc is open, I click New - and
the button is missing! Normal.dot has been saved a dozen times since I
added that button - but it's not there is a New doc created on Normal!
What gives??!?

preserve/keep original vertical spacing and layout after deleting paragraph or sentences
Hi,
I am working with 10 (soon to be 14 and later on 18) word.docs that are
about 25 pages each. These are kinda / sorta annual statement type
reports. Each year, certain paragraphs change substantially, are
deleted entirely (no longer applies), or new paragraphs / sentences are
inserted.
Example: say at the top of page 12, I want to delete an entire
paragraph, or a piece of it. Word automatically shifts upward
everything after what was deleted, disrupting the layout and indivdual
page headers and footers. Since these word.docs are not final, I want
the space that was occupied with what was just deleted to remain - it
may be used for a replacement paragraph or sentence later, or it will
remain blank, which is OK. I want everything that was after the area
of deletion to stay where it was originally.
These word.docs are mega-important, and ASAP turnaround is required. I
currently have 10, which will become 14, and later 18. Using the enter
/backspace /delete keys to shift things back to their original
locations, or to restore some aesthetically OK appearance (and
re-working headers / footers) is becoming increasingly time consuming
and burdensome. In short, I want the word.docs to behave as if each
page is a separate compartment - deleting a paragraph in one page will
not affect the text layout & header/footers of any subsequent pages.
If anyone can provide a solution, or anything that can at least
mitigate this problem, I would sincerely appreciate it. I have
researched this issue without success.
PS - I inherited these word.docs from prior users, and re-building from
scratch won't be an option due to time constraints.
Thanks in advance for any replies. Tag: ADDRESS LABEL TEMPLATE FOR AVERY L7164 Tag: 89006

will merge into the Email address field, so you didn't have to worry about
