    - How can I manage/open/close binder files (.obd) in Word 2003 as I. Office 2003 seems to want to "un-bind" all of my previous binder files (*.obd). That's OK, I guess, but I like to be able to work in them just as before i.e. as bound units. How do I get the best of both Word 2000 and Word 2003? Thanks in advance.

    - Run OS in RAM Speed Trick Hi all, (Running OS in RAM is below this Trick for those that have enough RAM to do it, but if not, there another way to Speed it up by adding a small HD that I hope will be of help those with small RAMs.) * OS on a small HD all by itself. * I you crash a lot and have to format you HD often, try this. Get a small HD like 4 Gig and set it up as you C:\ Drive and only install Windows on it, and nothing else. Install all your other Programs including IE and OE on other Drives (D:, E, F ect). Export a copy of your Registry to Disk or one of the other HD's. Do the same with IE favorites under C:\Windows\Favorates (including all sub folders) and your NS Bookmarks. Now if you crash you only have to reinstall your OS and nothing else. Just import your old Registry, Favorites and Bookmarks. Saves a lot of work reinstalling of all your other programs and not having to set them up the way you like them from scratch again or lose Data. *** * Run OS in RAM Speed Trick * If you have Gigs of Ram try this. Programs run in RAM run 1000 times faster than off a HD or CD !!! How about running your OS there ! The way to do this is with a Ram Drive but the one that comes with Windows is too small but others make bigger Ram Drives that are not expensive. Ram Drive is software to trick your Computer into thinking part of it's RAM Memory is a Hard Disk Drive. You must have enough RAM left over to run programs outside the RAM Drive so you might want to upgrade your RAM Memory. Once you have a Ram Drive, install Windows on Drive C as normal. But put IE and OE on another HD. Then use a Program like Norton's Ghost to Copy your OS to another HD and Burn it (Windows OS) to CD. Use your Autoexec.bat and or Config.sys Files load the RAM Drive on Bootup and Load the OS from the CD to the RAM Drive and Execute Win.exe on that RAM Drive to run Windows. Then do your Windows Update and use that Norton Ghost or other program to Copy the RAM Drive to HD and or Burn that to CD. You can use you Autoexec or Config to run the Saved OS on the (D:, E, ect...) HD for those Updates that must be installed alone and rebooted after. Install all your Programs then save the OS in RAM Drive to CD and your on your way. You'll also have to do this every time you install/uninstall a Program but you'll also always have a clean OS on Boot even if infected with a Trojan or Virus. And the Speed Boost of OS running in RAM has a 4 GHZ Computer run like a 50 GHZ Computer. Are you a Gammer, do a lot of Multitasking or Audio/Video ? Then this could be an option for you. Before shutting down if you want to keep the Reg settings that changed after the OS is installed you just copy your Registry again and import it back to Windows in the RAM Drive if you don't want to Burn it to CD. If you install a new Program you'll want to do this so you can Burn a new OS CD with the new Registry or just import it when you want to use that program. When you reboot you install a Fresh OS each time making it very hard for a Virus or Trojan to take hold. You can still get infected by user error but it's much easier to clean when you cut it out of the OS. Always use a Firewall and if on a Broad Band Connection get behind a NAT Router even if you have only one Computer. It's better than a Software Firewall but I'd still use one with the NAT anyway. Hope this is of interest to you. Good luck. !:?) Kevin Tag: How to I get Office to turn a wave file into text using speech re. Tag: 76255

    - Further help, please Using Office 2003 SBE, I'm setting up a Company fax. At the moment it's a .doc (not template) and I'm working on setting up the 1st page (ideally without using VBA so that I might avoid Certificate issues when deploying the fax). I've set up the FirstPageheader which contains Company address and logo. Q1: How to protect/lock for editing this header? Below the header will be the body of the Fax, so this must be editable by the user. however it will also contain this type of entry: Page: " " of " " where [Page] & [of] are preloaded, but the " " represent user-editable areas Q2: How do I do this without code?

    - Create Master Fax like this? Say I need a Master Fax template, where the entire fax will (for now) occupy one A4 portrait page, and where the 1st quarter of the page will be filled with "who it's from, who it's to, Company logo and address etc" and where the last quarter of the page will be filled with details concerning such things as Internal and External distribution (who gets a copy, etc). In principle, can I open the template and (assuming there's a way to also lock/protect the top and bottom quarters) be able to enter text into the middle section of the page AND be able to freely format sections of that text (ie font, font size, bold, underline etc)?

When viewing text, letters are displayed in a color that seems to be one shade grayer than black, or maybe the lines of the characters are thinner than what was used with Office 2000. In any case, I am having a difficult time reading them compared to Word 2000. Is there any way to fix this? 2.

    - Search for CAPITALIZED words? Howdy all, Word 2002, XP, question on searching for capitalized text in a document. What I need to do is a Find and Replace on all capitalized text within a document, and switch it to Bold, leaving it capitalized. There is nothing in common with any of the words that are in caps, so there are no character strings to search on; it'll have to be a style or font setting or?? I can find nothing that can locate non-specific text that is all capitals. In other words, each capitalized word is different; there is no relationship between any of the words, so there is no pattern of text to search on; only the fact that it's body text and it's capitalized. e.g., I might need to find /JUST, /THIS, /HOW, /WHY, ALWAYS, and so on, and change them to Bolded characters. Usually, not always, the capitalized word will be the first word of a sentence, but the length of the word is variable. I've tried a lot of things including wild cards and capitalized, but to no avail. I might be missing something silly, but if that's so, I sure can't figure it out! Any ideas would be most appreciated. Please make me slap my forehead and go D'uh! <g> because the answer is actually obvious? TIA, Pop -- Let someone else do it I'm retired!

    - Suggestions for speeding up Word 2K's performance I doubled my RAM to no avail. The program still has the aggravating habit of 'hanging' on a keystroke or command, not showing what the last action was until I move the cursor or create another keystroke. Am I clear? I presumed it was too many programs running, too little RAM or something else that was clogging up my memory. I've tried shutting down everyting but the document I'm working on, and still have the problem. I've cleaned up all the adware, spyware, etc., so that's not the problem. I'm wondering if it's just the nature of the beast. Is there a way to shut off part of Word to get it to run smoother? Would I be well served buying a newer edition of Word?

    - Removing duplicate macro code I had three different normal.dot files, each with about 25-30 macros. Many were duplicates. I merged the macro code manually and deleted two of the normal.dot files so that I would have one master file with ALL of the macros. I assumed there would be some sort of cleanup mechanism that would allow me to quickly and easily remove the duplicate macros, or, that they would appear in the Tools>Macro>Macros list so I could just use Delete to get rid of them. However, the duplicate macros only appear in the list once. This is a serious problem because everytime I want to execute ANY macro, I get errors about all the duplicates. It says that the name is ambiguous. If I delete two of the three sections of code for the duplicate it was complaining about and try to run a macro again, it moves to the next duplicate in the list and complains about the ambiguous name. I guess it compiles the whole sheet at runtime. Is there some way in the MS Visual Basic Editor (invoked by Word, et al.) to remove the duplicates? Is there a way to compile the macro sheet and check for errors? Tag: How to I get Office to turn a wave file into text using speech re. Tag: 76063
