    - Help with outlining - what happened to the Outline level buttons in 2003? I'm currently using Word 2003. In previous versions of word, there use to be buttons that would collapse the text under various levels of headers when in Outline mode. The beauty was that you could look at only the main level, or the main + Secondary level, or main + secondary + tertiary, or . .. etc, depending on which button was clicked. This feature seems to be gone from 2003. Anyone know if I'm doing something wrong or have missed something? Thanks for any advice. -- Dab Cut off: yourhead to respond Tag: Default Language Tag: 77807

    - A 'field' question Hi, I hope you can help. I've created a document (basically like a school report) with check boxes and fields. The problem I have is that when I want to type into the field, it's fine until the text goes onto a different line, then it starts to move the text of the unfielded bits down the page. I've saved it as a template, tried it protected and unprotected but can't seem to get my head around it. I hope someone out there understands what I mean and can give some advice to a Word novicette.

I have some text in the cell of a table that is essentially clear formatting but with typeface blue. There are several lines of it.

    - Page Numbering & Section Break Hi, I have a title page in the first section, a table of contents in the second section, and the main body of my report in the third section. In my header, I have Page 8 of 16. The number "8" is correct, because I instructed Word to start over at the new section. But the 16 is 2 too high. It is including the Title and Table of Contents. If I look at the field codes, I have this in my header: Page { PAGE } of { NUMPAGES } How do I get NUMPAGES to only provide the count in the current section? I am using MS Word 2003 on a WinXP PC.

    - How do I get rid of ads for "marketplace" merchandise in help When I click on help I just want help. I'm not interested in being bombarded with ads and 'featured links.' Aside from being annoying, these strike me as a major security risk. How can I restrict help to looking for help and not the rest of this extraneous content? If the convenience of the user is what's at stake here, this 'feature' should be disabled by default. At the very least instructions on how to disable it should be prominent and visible. If on the other hand the idea is to steer users into yet another online shopping site... More generally, Microsoft has a tendency to come up with all kinds of new features that may be exactly what somebody is looking for but are an annoyance to at least as many other users, and then make it all but impossible for the user to figure out how to get rid of the feature he never asked for and doesn't particularly want. I really wish they'd knock it off. Tag: Default Language Tag: 77701

    - Text editing problem.. Guys - I have got myself a list of files from a folder on xp opened in word (it's a list of all files within my music singles folder so I can print them off and put them with my mp3 player). However this list contains the date, time and file size etc. (standard file view in xp) and I'm trying to delete it to just leave track name part of the line. Is there an easy way I can just delete the first 60 or so characters on each line of text without having to do line by line - obviously if I try to delete a block by moving the mouse downwards, it grabs everything right to the end of the line and highlights that for deletion to. In other words I highlight the bits i don't want, move the mouse downwards to the next line and the rest of the line I wanted to keep is highlighted........a very complicated explanation of a very simple thing methinks!!

    - AutoText Certainly not a new user but don't know where to post this one (Please tell me where may be better). Some time ago we prepared a Word 2000 template using a table and Autotext. Sentences (from a different document) were added to autotext (some were 700+ characters) and each given a code. Typing the code successfully inserted the text into the table (of the template and 'new' documents). This template still works OK on Word 97, 2000, XP. We are now trying to set up new templates on the same basis. However, we cannot enter more than 255 characters (on any version) into autotext. What has gone wrong/are we doing differently. Please help before I lose all my hair!!! If the original was a 'quirk', any other ideas for automatically entering text using a code? Many thanks Terry Tag: Default Language Tag: 77631
