    - Drop down lists in Word 2000 Hi. I will admit to being just a basic user of Word. I now need to get a little bit more involved. I need to create some forms that I will send to the involved people via email. I am in the process of creating a home inspection form. I want to use some drop down lists that give a few choices to choose from. The help system seems to be fairly straightforward. I am in the process of creating a new template. I inserted a drop down list form where I wanted it to be and then put in the various choices. When I hit OK, all I get is a gray box with the first choice in it, which is OK, but there is no down arrow from which to make a different choice if the default choice isn't correct. Can anyone tell me what I should do to get the drop down list box to appear? Thanks very much for your help. Tag: Adding a graphic Tag: 74434

    - Word 2003 Table Drop down menu defect? I'm running into major problems with Word 2003 doing things all my itself and then hanging up. I'm running Word 2003 on XP Pro. The program frequently and randomly places a non-functioning Table Drop-down menu on the screen (in equally random locations) and nothing inn the Word program works after that. When running multiple windows, the drop down menu often appears when I return to the program even if there is no document in use and it was not there when I went to another application. Also, the screen randomly and all by itself will go to the reading screen (I use print screen) and loses all the tool bars. While hitting ESC will return to the print screen, the tool bars never come back. I have to Ctrl-S and then Ctrl-F4 to get out, and then restart program. I've reinstalled many times, no change. None of my other applications share these problems or similar hang ups. I didn't find anything on this in the Microsoft knowledge base. Can anybody help? Is this a common error? Is there a fix?

    - Why I got "Server busy" warning? Hi, I used to use Word 2000, and recently, I frequently got "Server busy" warning when open a dialog such as modify format,print or insert symbol. I tried a lot to eliminate this problem by uninstall and reinstall Office even clear my computer by reinstall the system, but this still frequently happening. When it happening, a message to ask "switch to" or "cancel", but no matter what to chose, it just takes time and I cannot use the dialog. For this reason, I uninstalled the Office 2000 and installed Office 2003, but today this happened again when I tried to insert a symbol. This just happen in less than one year, before this, I never find Word 2000 has the problem. Anyone has the same experience? and any solution for sharing? Thanks! Tag: Adding a graphic Tag: 74422

On adding to a previously created document, my line spacing has now gone to twice what it was before, or what I would term a normal spacing. What might have happened ?

    - Word 2000 problem We have a problem printing to a Epson C45 printer in Win98 from Word 2000. Having spent many minutes on the phone to Epson support here in Australia, it came down to the following: When we are in the document and click on file, print, page setup. When we check the paper size, the only size available is custom and this cannot be added to or changed. Apparently according to the Epson staff member this is the reason we cannot print to the C45. Any ideas as we have deleted and reloaded the correct driver under Epson's instruction and all appears to be OK The printer is installed correctly and is the default printer Regards Roy Baker Australia Tag: Adding a graphic Tag: 74393

    - Help with formatting I know this is a Word newslist but the moderators are so knowledgeable here that I am posing my question here rather than subscribe to another newslist just to ask one question. Maybe someone will help me. I am using MS Outlook from Office XP and have a problem with formatting in the notes section (broad wide field at the bottom half) in both "Tasks" and "Appointments". Sometimes I will paste some text from elsewhere which happens to be double spaced. From then on if I type anything else in that note field I get a double space every time I press enter. Format does not seem to have an option to single-space it again. Is there a way to solve this?

    - booklets I hope I can ask my questions without getting too 'wordy'. I want to make a roster that will be printed on 8 1/2 x 11 paper, in landscape design, but done as two pages per sheet, and printed back to back. I can change the paper size to 5.5 x 8.5 or 8.5 x 5.5, but don't know how to set up the rest. When I tred a sample, and printed it, it either printed (portrait) in the center of the 8.5 x 11 paper, and when landscape did the same. The member who did the roster last year, said there was no way to add next members (in alphabetical order) once all the typing was complete and before going to printer with out retyping everything. Ugh! All I can think of now is to do it in portrait, cut off the margins and tape two pages together before copying them. When I did the newsletter several years ago, it was printed on 11 x 17 paper, so I just set up 8.5 x 11 sheets in portrait and then taped the appropriate pages together to get the booklet form, again printing back to back. Any help would be much appreciated. By the way, I'm using Word 2000. Thanks. Janice Tag: Adding a graphic Tag: 74366

    - How to find slide item numbers in a ppt2k file? Bill Dilworth (MS PPT MVP Team) told me that this post belongs somewhere in this newsgroup: I have a word2000 doc with 100 links to slides in ppt files. The links are created as icons. I want to change some of those links. I go to "Edit|Links..." in the doc file and see a list of links. How do I know which line goes with which icon in the doc file? When I click "Change Source" in the "Edit|Links..." box I get a browser that eventually asks for the item number that I want to change to. How do I know what the items numbers of the slides are in the ppt files? I can find out by copying a slide and pasting as a hyperlink into the doc file and then viewing "Field Codes" in the Tools|Options" window. But that doesn't help me easily find which of 200 or more slides belongs to a particular item number. Tag: Adding a graphic Tag: 74351

    - how do you write essay on gyms pros and cons The writing prompt follows: From infancy to adulthood, advertising is in the air Americans breathe, the information we absorb, without knowing it. It floods our mind with pictures of perfection and goals of happiness easy to attain...

    - Make 2003 cool its jets after a crash Is there any way to stop Word 2003 from making such a grand purple fuss after it crashes? In prior versions I could delete the temp-file debris, relaunch, and be back to work in under 30 seconds. Now I must [1] listen to its plaintive whimper about sending an error report, AND [2] endure the pointless (for me) task pane that insists on me confirming that I want to reopen the recovered files. It's like an old lady smothering a kid who's scraped his knee, refusing to let him return to the playground right away. Both of these processes happen quite slowly on my (new and very fast) machine. I can't think of an instance when I *wouldn't* want to reopen what I was working on and get back to business, but I'd rather do it without grandma serving it to me on a doily. Is there a switch or registry hack somewhere that'll cut that stuff out, or at least speed it up?

    - HTML viewing in Word When I put web links in my word document, I see the web address in the document instead of the name of the site. Thus, I'll have take a look at Fred's web page, and have a link on Fred's, but instead of seeing Fred's, I'll see http://fred.com The same is true for my footers and page numbering. Instead of actually seeing the footer, I'll see {filename/p} and for page number, I'll see {page} on each page. I also get this with using the equation editor. I have tried different views (normal, web, etc.) but this doesn't seem to make a difference. When I go to print preview, all of this looks like it should look.

What I can not get right, is the left margin of ALL the pages which have to be 3cm and the right margins all at 1cm. This is not for binding as I will cut all the pages in two without binding, so there is no need for a gutter.. I hope you understand what I need. Please help me out here.

    - Can't remove shading I've searched via Google Groups and can't find the answer to this. Can you help? I'm editing a document created by somebody else (to whom I don't have access at present). Some the footnotes contain text with yellow shading (around normal black text) that I can't get rid of. The "What's this?" shows nothing special in paragraph formatting. Tracking of changes is off (and in any case that doesn't use yellow). The text is not in a table. I can select it, then Format>Borders and Shading, and set shading to "nofill" and that makes no difference. I re-applied the style "Footnote text" to one of them and that did remove the shading. But it doesn't work on others! If I copy a word from a yellow footnote and paste it into the main text, it carries its yellow with it and I can't get rid of it there either. .... .... I've just found another solution, after typing the above: select the text, change its style to Normal (control-shift-n) and then back to Footnote text. BUT (a) when I do that, the Style box still shows Footnote text after making it Normal, and (b) I'd still like to know what could have been the cause of the yellow shading. I've still got a copy of the file in its shaded state, so if you have a suggestion, I can try it on that. -- Oliver ("Reply-To:" address will send non-spam to me and will delete spam sent to it.)
