    - form fields I am building a form that has mulitple fields, some are short fields (date, time,etc.) others are narrative. When I protect the form to try out the fields I am having trouble with the narrative field expanding my document. Bottom line is that I want to insert text into my formfield and not have it modify my document. Any help would be appreciated. Bob Tag: Printing with Strikethroughs. Tag: 89096

    - Exclusion spell file Hi all Am using Word 2000 with all latest updates on W98. I needed to exclude one word from the spell and followed all the instructions. The main dictionary file (Australian) was in C;\programfiles\common files\microsoft shared\PROOF so I put my *.exc file there too. All was OK. Then I dragged the new file from explorer to the desktop, and added two new words. Now nothing works, even the first word (that did before). I have deleted from the desktop (which seemed to cause the problem) and then deleted under explorer and started all over again. Nothing works. Any ideas? Tag: Printing with Strikethroughs. Tag: 89092

    - Exam question wrong about Word? Opinions, please! I had an exam in which the following question was asked: http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c180/digitaltoast/OCR_ICT_L2_602_q22.png (You may need to "click the pic" to make it full size) There were 4 questions, but as we were under exam conditions, I had to do a rather clandestine screen dump to the fileserver, so I didn't get the other two options, but there were regarding alignment, I think "paragraph alignment" and "indent". Definitely nothing to do with it. So, we are left with "font" and "font size". Definitely not font. But not font size either! So, I called an invigilator over. She scratched her head, and along came another one. Eventually, they said "skip that question, see us after". So, I was sent to the the Office expert, who said "Ah, this is font - the font size is different". She then struggled to demonstrate it on Word 2000. She was able to make a bullet change size, but could not make the line text the SAME size as shown, AND get the font size dropdown to show a consistant font. We then tried it on Word 2002. This time, she was able to highlight the bullets, and make them change size. But this time they didn't change pattern! She gave up and said "it must be a different version, I don't know, but the question cannot be wrong." This is the ONE question I got wrong (because I hadn't answered it), had this question been possible, I would have got 100%. Yes, I still passed, but I'd like to get it sorted properly, for the sake of other people in the future. So, before I make a fool of myself to the exam board, is there ANY way this question CAN be right? For me, it was just about the satisfaction of getting 100%, but for someone else, that question might be the difference between pass and fail. Tag: Printing with Strikethroughs. Tag: 89032

    - creating online forms Hello, I'm trying to develop an online questionnaire to access people's satisfaction with an assessment tool. I want to email the questionnaire to people, ask them to fill it out, and then email it back. The only way I found to do this is to create a webform with a 'submit' button included at the bottom. When I formatted the submit button, I set the submit form method to 'POST'. The email response I get back contains the information but it includes a series of extra numbers and symbols. Two questions then, (1) Is there an easier way of doing this? (2) Is there some way to open the sent text file within the questionnaire without the extra text and symbols? I am a relatively new user and only somewhat familiar with MS Word. THis project was dropped in my lap a few days ago and its causing me nothing but frustration. Help!

    - Add to Favorites Missing in Word 2003 I've found where Suzanne Barnhill said : "Instead of adding the (Windows) Favorites folder to the places bar, why don't you create a Favorites folder in Word and add shortcuts to your most-used documents there, then add that folder to the Places Bar?" Can someone give me a step-by-step on how to do this? It sounds so simple, but I can't get it to work. Thank you so much for your help. Ardell Tag: Printing with Strikethroughs. Tag: 89021

    - Still frustrated trying to add buttons! It seems like adding menu command and macro buttons to my toolbars has become specific to documents, or at least Word instances, in Word XP. I was in Word 2000 last month, and had no problems adding a button for a menu command or a macro to a toolbar - it would be there the next time I opened Word, and it would be there for every document. Not so in Word XP - a button added may not be there the next time I open a different document. For example, I am using strike-through a lot on my current report, so I added the button through Tools >> Customize. I can open the report doc again and it's still there. While the report doc is open, I click New - and the button is missing! Normal.dot has been saved a dozen times since I added that button - but it's not there is a New doc created on Normal! What gives??!? Ed Tag: Printing with Strikethroughs. Tag: 89019

    - preserve/keep original vertical spacing and layout after deleting paragraph or sentences Hi, I am working with 10 (soon to be 14 and later on 18) word.docs that are about 25 pages each. These are kinda / sorta annual statement type reports. Each year, certain paragraphs change substantially, are deleted entirely (no longer applies), or new paragraphs / sentences are inserted. Example: say at the top of page 12, I want to delete an entire paragraph, or a piece of it. Word automatically shifts upward everything after what was deleted, disrupting the layout and indivdual page headers and footers. Since these word.docs are not final, I want the space that was occupied with what was just deleted to remain - it may be used for a replacement paragraph or sentence later, or it will remain blank, which is OK. I want everything that was after the area of deletion to stay where it was originally. These word.docs are mega-important, and ASAP turnaround is required. I currently have 10, which will become 14, and later 18. Using the enter /backspace /delete keys to shift things back to their original locations, or to restore some aesthetically OK appearance (and re-working headers / footers) is becoming increasingly time consuming and burdensome. In short, I want the word.docs to behave as if each page is a separate compartment - deleting a paragraph in one page will not affect the text layout & header/footers of any subsequent pages. If anyone can provide a solution, or anything that can at least mitigate this problem, I would sincerely appreciate it. I have researched this issue without success. PS - I inherited these word.docs from prior users, and re-building from scratch won't be an option due to time constraints. Thanks in advance for any replies. Tag: Printing with Strikethroughs.

    - Merging documents Whatever happened to the simple way to merge a document in Word? I can't even find information on it so I will be ever grateful to anyone who can help me. I ahve a simple document, with about 10 places where the data changes. It is not a letter, it is not an email, it is not a fax, nor any of theo ther documents the merge tries to make you do. The main document is a regular document with regular information. The variable data is a regular document, not a database. I believe I can do the main document but I can't figure out how to do the variable document. In the main document, I have several fields in several places as follows: {MERGEFIELD "Email address"} or {MERGEFIELD "Section"} or {MERGEFIELD "Color"} My data is similar to the following: aaa@bbb.com Wall Dividers Red I seem to remember a way to enter the above data so that aaa@bbb.com always will merge into the Email address field, so you didn't have to worry about having exactly the right number of data, etc.. Can someone tell me how I'm supposed to be doing this? Thank you very very much. Tag: Printing with Strikethroughs. Tag: 89002

    - Perplexing Word Problem I'm not a new user but I don't see another place to post this. Word 2003 (from Office 2003): When I open word and start a new blank document, my cursor is positioned at the very top of the page, and that is where typed text is placed, even though a one-inch top margin is set. I am an experienced word user (since 1991), and I cannot find out what is causing this. I've delted normal.dot and let word recreate it, and it doesn't help. If I go to View / Header and Footer and then immediately click close (without doing anything), the cursor is then positioned in the proper place, as specified by the page setup top margin.

    - Vertical bar on left side of page and unusual formatting, how to clear? I don't know how this got started. Obviously, I hit some keys that caused it but I have not seen this before and can't figure out how to clear it.

And, I discovered that, if I move my cursor to another part of the document, above where this got started, the vertical bar appears if a type any changes to that part of the document and that new text is also in the colored and underlined font.

You have enabled Track Changes and are evidently viewing the document in
Normal view (which doesn't show the balloons). If you want strikethrough
instead of balloons, disable the balloons on the Track Changes tab of Tools
| Options. If you want actual strikethrough formatting (not revision
markings), you need to apply it through Format Font.
