    - Word 2003 for Word 97 User We have been using Word 97 for a couple of years. We have just installed Word 2003 in 2 machines while most of us still using Word 97. We would like to know in order to make our documents compatibitble. What settings should we set up in Word 2003 ? Under Tools --> Save, Should we select "Disable features introduced after Word 97" ? Under Tools --> Compatibility, Should we select "Recommended options for Windows 97" ? OR we don't need to do anything and they (Word 2003 and Word 97 documents) are compatible ?

    - Unable to print Name Tent in Word 2000 using mail merge I've created a mail mailmerge file that prints name tents (the name is sideways on the page, I can fold the page in half lengthwise to make a tent). When I try to print the document from my Dell Computer, it will not print anything at all. When someone else opens the file and selects print, it prints as it should. Why won't my printer print this document? Tag: Header and footer question Tag: 69549

    - figuring page x of y Hi Honestly - I seldom use Word, so this might be a overly basic question...So don't laugh ! A document was faxed to me for editing (this doc not available to us electronically) The pages were numbered 1 of 125 to 125 of 125. However, corrections weren't required on all the pages. How do I use the x of y pages in the footer, but with numbers of my choosing, e.g.; 2 of 125, then 8 of 125, 15 of 125, etc. I want to email the finished product back, without blank pages.

    - Want to invert text I have a daily diary in a word document. January first is at the top of the document and the latest date at the end.

    - Word lists (as opposed to word count) Is there a facility to list all the words used in a Word document? I don't need to know the word length but the vocabulary list of any given piece of text. Frequency of occurence would be useful but not essential. It would not need to be used with a dictionary or spell-checker, but simply to list every different combination of letters separated by spaces. This would mean I could find out what sort of language complexity a text has in any language by knowing which words it uses (useful both in my capacity as a language teacher and a language learner). If there is no such function in Word, are there any commercially available programs on the market that do this? ***************************************** * This message was posted via http://www.officekb.com * * Report spam or abuse by clicking the following URL: * http://www.officekb.com/Uwe/Abuse.aspx?aid=8497f874a12c4950a0c30bcbab66b7c0 ***************************************** Tag: Header and footer question Tag: 69533

    - File - Open - takes a really long time! Hello, I am using Office 2003. When I try to open a file, the open file dialog comes up and when I click the drop down arrow in the Look In: field, it takes a minute or two for the directory list to drop down. It never used to take this long; however, recently, a dialog popped up and said something about indexing or searching (I didn't read it very closely - but clicked the OK button), then the next thing I know, every time I try to open a file, it takes forever to get the directory list. Any idea how to turn this feature OFF. Thanks for any suggestions. -- TLF Tag: Header and footer question Tag: 69492

    - Field Code issue in printing comments Hi I am printing a doc in W2000, and for some reason some of the comments on the last page show the page number before the comment entry text, and the remainer don't. I have tracked this to a field code issue, however cannot find how to resolve it to make them all the same. I actually want to print the page number preceding each comment, so assume that the field code is somehow responsible for this. I did not do anything deliberately to turn the code on to make some of the comments display page numbers and others no to. I have tried Shift + F9 on the comments not displaying the page number however it has not worked. Appreciate advice on how to include the page number before each comment when I print the comments page out.

    - grid in WORD I am not sure which group is more appropriate, so I'll post it here and in the doc management group: I teach mathematics. I type my math tests on WORD 97 (I use it in conjunction with MATh Type). Is there a way to incorporate a small grid on my tests (for graphing problems)? I know on the bottom of the screen if I click on Draw I can then choose grid and it asks for some settings. But I don't know how to put a grid in my document and I can't seem to find it in the Help Index. Currently, I made a grid on a MS WORKS spreadsheet and I can copy and paste, but I would like to do it in WORD. (I can also create one in Geometer's Sketchpad and do the same) Any ideas? I must be missing something simple. Mel Tag: Header and footer question Tag: 69486

    - Keep a form from changing when filling in the blanks I have developed several tables on one page to use as a report sheet on my unit in a hospital. I have saved it on a floppy disk. Every day I pull up this report sheet and change the info, however, if the info being typed in is too long it changes the appearance of the table (i.e. adding another line, or increasing the size of the table and hince can't print it). I want the tables to be fixed and not change with the addition of information. I just want to fill in the blanks, and when I get to the end of a space it stops accepting characters. I hope you can understand what I am looking to achieve. Tag: Header and footer question Tag: 69453

Previously, on my other DSL service, I could of course type a file in Word, then hit File> send to > mail recipient (as attachment), and presto, the new mail OE box would open inside Word, where I could choose my "TO" recipient from OE address book and out it would be sent.

    - Template Modification Troubles Hello everyone, I work for a company that is trying to use Microsoft Word 2002 t prepare a template that we can use to automatically apply styles t documents that we prepare. I am reasonably familiar with making a .dot file, but I am having difficulty when I try to modify the existing styles (such as Heading 1 Normal, etc). I need to make the 'Hyperlink' style appear as Arial 10 with a colo (that works fine), but any time that I change the setting, when Wor applies the 'Hyperlink' style to anything in my document, it stil reverts back to Times New Roman. Here is what I am doing: From the 'Styles and Formatting' bar, I am right-clicking o 'Hyperlink' and selecting 'Modify...'. I click the 'Format' dorp-down and select 'Font...'. I set the font to 10 point Arial (with my color choice RG 102/102/102). I click OK, check the 'Add to Template' checkbox, set the 'Style Base on...' field to 'Underlying Properties', then click OK. Now, when I go make a new hyperlink in the document, the text stil appears as Times New Roman. I am confused! Can anyone tell me what I a doing wrong? I would greatly appreciate any help or advice.

    - Incorrect info in Help file? Hi All! This morning my boss wanted me to set up our main letter template so that if he wrote more than a one page letter the header would not appear on any other page after the first one. I have to say, having read the Help File instructions on inserting page breaks and such I spent a frustrating half hour with my headers and footers dissapearing altogether, the header reappearing on the second page, a spare page appearing at the end of the file. You name it, it happened. The instruction are as follows:- To set up different headers or footers for odd and even pages ? or for a different first page ? insert a manual page break in the one-page template, create the headers or footers you want, and then delete the page break. Then create a document based on the template. The headers and footers will appear when the document becomes more than one page. Eventually I abandoned this and looked around a bit. On the menu File Page Setup Layout there is an option to produce a different first page header/footer. I clicked that on and that sorted the problem. Why the help file doesn't just say that I don't know. I wish that it had! Tag: Header and footer question Tag: 69386

Make sure that the font of the Footer paragraph style is 12-point and that
the font of the Page Number character style is Default Paragraph Font.
