    - Table of contents I have created a table of contents that loks very normal. like a heading tab, then page number like below. I know I can create a link from the text "Chapter One" to the place that chapter starts, but with editing and changes often the page number will change ie: I add some text and this pushes Chapter Two to page 27. Is there a way to automatically link the page number to the page that chapter starts on. Currently the only way I can think to do it is to go through the document and change the page numbers in the TOC manually. Since I make changes often, there must be a better way to change the page numbers. Table Of Contents Chapter One Page 14 Chapter Two Page 26 Tag: HELP Tag: 73415

    - Track changes question This might seem a petty problem for some of you out there and again, i am aware that there might be no solution. Anyway, i will ask the question and someone might reply. I was proof reading a document and I made some 80 changes to a single word/I suggested another synonym. However, now that I am almost finished I am not convinced I made the right decision so I would like the original word back. I know I could do it word by word (reject changes) but that would take me ages. Is there any way of doing it all at once and for the document not to look as if it was in a battlefield.

    - How do I stop text from writing over other text in word? I am typing my term paper. Everytime I go back to edit, or change a word, the new text I type writes over the old text I already had written. This is very bad, because I cannot change anything, without having to write the whol sentence, or paragraph, over. There must be a setting somewhere I can change. Can anyone help me? Thank you!

    - Font errors I have a problem with fonts in word 2003. In a 5 page document I will get font spacing errors like the one in the example below in 6 or 7 places. The E in THE is actually right after the H with no space in between, however it prints (Both on screen and printer) like it is shown in the example. There does not seem to be any rhyme or reason to this. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both word, then Office with no help. I tried detect and repair. This is only happening in word, and not any other Office applications. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Thanks EXAMPLE: TH EEND Tag: HELP Tag: 73380

    - Points before and after How do I keep Word 2003 (no problems in previous versions) from randomly switching from "pts" to "line" when I change the increments for Before and After Paragraph Spacing? In my Options-General tab, I am using POINTS. The numbers I am entering are different everytime but they are labeled "pts" at the time I am changing them and then I change the number while "pts" still remains in the dialog box, and all of a sudden the measurement is much bigger by far than I chose. The "pts" has changed to "line". This doesn't happen all the time. I format desktop publishing type of documents at a fast pace and and use this command hundreds of times a day for exact page layout. Why has this changed in Word 2003? And how do I control it? Tag: HELP Tag: 73378

    - Word Conversion Feature I recently came across Word's conversion feature. (Templates, Other, Batch Conversion) Wow! ..never knew that existed. My question..does this produce direct formatting? Are the styles preserved? I would like to have it match the style in Word by looking at the text and saying "hey, you look like BodyText2 so I'll convert you and format the paragraph as BodyText2" or am I asking the impossible. I know there are third-party utilities that do this but was wondering if we can "customize" this feature. Thanks in advance! Tag: HELP Tag: 73361

    - Table emergency I'm picking up on a document someone else started, which is a form in tables. There are times when I'd like for the cell margins to be 0 all around instead of the default 0.08 on the right and left. No matter how many times I go into the box and change it, it goes right back to the default. I'm sure there's a way to change this default, but I don't have time to pursue it now and hope someone has the answer at their fingertips. Thanks for this and all of your help. Tag: HELP Tag: 73343

    - forms help - drop down boxes I've created a form and am having trouble getting the drop-down boxes to behave like I want them too. The user of the form should select an item from the drop down box, but I want the result to be a code for the item. So, for example, if the user chooses the item "black," once he/she tabs out of the field, the code "blk" should populate that field. This will be true of most of the drop down boxes in my form. I do not want to use the code itself in the drop down list, because in most cases, the correlation will not be this simple. I've tried a macro to accomplish this, and though the behavior is correct, once the user moves out of the field, the result code (i.e. "blk") is added to the list of available items in the drop down box. Any ideas? Tag: HELP Tag: 73317

    - Can't indent twice! We are struggling with the changeover to Word 2000, made necessary because with our new network software WordPerfect kept crashing. In creating legal documents it is important to keep manual control of numbering and lettering. This is because we are often quoting from the middle of other documents, and we often have to start with (say) subparagraph "r", skip to "t", and go on to sub-subparagraph (iii), etc. I see that to indent after a number or letter, you type the number or letter, hit TAB, then CTRL+T (hanging indent), and type. The text wraps around and you get an evenly indented paragraph after the letter number. For example: 2. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blha blha blha alah alhaal bla ha lh. 3. Blah lahg lha a blh ablh a blh blah blah blh alh l alh lha lha lah . etc. But this doesn't work if you want to indent twice. What I want is: 3. a. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah b. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah After hitting the TAB after "a.", I hit CTRL+T -- but then the "a" gets indented too. Further, only the first line indents twice -- the text then wraps back to the first indent. Hitting CTRL+M is even worse because the "3" gets indented as well. Making a doubly indented paragraph is a routine, everday task, and I assume the solution must be simple too. How do I get it to indent twice without indenting the number and letter too?

    - Footnote problem I used to have Word 2000. In it, when I pointed mouse to a footnote insertion (a superscript number in a text), a small flag and then the footnote text would appear in a small window, which was quite a convenience. Recently, I have installed MS Word 2002 on my Windows XP Home SP2. Now, when I point mouse to a footnote, all I get is a flicker and no text or anything. Is this normal for Word 2002? Did Word 2002 abandoned this footnote option? Is there a way to get it back? Any assistance is appreciated. -- Ilya Zeldes Fort Myers, Florida Tag: HELP Tag: 73235

You'll need to explain what Background you mean and how you added it. The
Word background option is only for HTML and doesn't print - or isn't suppose
to.
