    - Search & replace problem I have some documents with a lot of spaces in them, (because they are reports output by some old software). They were written as text files, and I have imported them into Word 2000. In every case where there are 2 or more spaces together, I would like to replace that run of spaces with ONE comma. Is there a way of doing it? The documents are each over 100 pages, so doing it manually is out of the question. Tag: Product ID Tag: 48681

    - Copying to a new document and then print warning I find that often when I copy data from one document and paste it into a new document and then attempt to print that data that I am given the warning: "The margins of section 1 are set outside the printable area of the page. Do you want to continue?" I have tried several solutions to avoid this warning, such as: 1. In the new blank document, I have pressed the ENTER key several times hoping to leaving the previous formatting behind. 2. I have tried copy all but the last word of the text I want to paste into a new document and then press ENTER several times Neither of these methods work for me in Microsoft Word 2002. Any solutions?

    - How to deactivate I bought Office XP for students and teachers for college. I installed it on to my PC at home and activated it. Just recently I bought a laptop for school and installed it onto my new laptop. After using it for alittle while the program froze and every time I tried to press a key a caption came up on the bottom of my screen saying; 'This command is not available because the document is locked for edit.' I tried everything possible and then I discovered that I needed to activate it on my laptop, but it wouldn't let me because it was already activated on my other computer at home. I need to have this progam on my laptop for school. Is there some way that you can help me? -Lindsay Tag: Product ID Tag: 48660

    - styles I followed shauna kelly's explanation of numbering to the letter (I think). (http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/OutlineNumbering .html) and still can't get outline numbering to work properly. I am getting the following problem 1 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 4.1.1 The third header doesn't follow properly. The only thing that doesn't work in terms of Shauna's directions is that when I select "Previous Level Number" and try to indicate that the level before Level 2 is Level 1 and so on it does not allow the level to stay selected. It reverts to blank. Any thoughts out there? Tag: Product ID Tag: 48625

    - Word Count I am writing a document for university with a strict word limit. This limit includes the main text only, and not text related to pictures, headings, references and certain other parts of the document. I would like to know what is and is not included in the word count (for example are headers and footers, or text in text boxes included), and is there any way I can get it to only count words in text of my choice (blocks of text I need to count are interrupted by other text that I don't need to count) or am I going to have to do it by hand?

    - Word freezing I am having a problem with Word 2000. Everytime I try to open a file it freezes my computer, gives me a variety of error messages, like I am dangerously low on resources. I have tried rebooting, shutting off antivirus (using msconfig) but to no avail. This is not a new installation. I can open other office files, there isn't a problem on other machines with my network, and I tried reinstalling word. I thought about bad ram, but so many other large files, and mutliple files will open. I have also ran scandisk and scanned for virus' (updates downloaded daily). Any ideas? Tag: Product ID Tag: 48605

    - Word is Word is bad in XP? I have a new computer running XP. I have been 2 days now trying to get either Word / Excel 97 or Word / Excel 2000 to run in XP. The 97 version has so many little quirks I know it is not working right. When you go to Format\Fonts for example, only the first letter of the font name will display. Same with the size - select a 12 point and it w show '1'. This is just and example. The 2000 version opens and then shuts down with some long message about sending a report to Microsoft. Am I the only one w these problems? Solutions? If I was assured Office XP Standard would work I would buy it but suspect the problem is deeper than that.

    - Where to save templates ? Hi, I use Word 2000 and notice that when I make and save a template, it goes to this path: Local Disk (C:) + Windows + Application Data + Microsoft + Templates. When I want to open up a saved template, I have to go through that whole path to get it. Is there a way I can have them saved in a more convenient folder? Thanks, Dave Tag: Product ID Tag: 48582

    - Can't Print Word Attachment When I open a Word file that I open as an email attachment or from a template program I cannot print the document. The button bars blink. I can't even close the document without going through Ctrl-Alt-Del. When I do that there's some little message in the list of running programs that says, essentially, "you can't close this window while a dialog box is open." I can't SEE any dialog box. Just blinking bars. I had this issue with WordPerfect documents. I could save the attachment, then open WP, then open the document and print. Some kind soul on the Corel user group told me how to solve that issue. (I have zero recall of what the fix was.) Now it's happening with Word. Is this an either/or proposition? Is one or the other (Word/WP) set up as a default something-or-other? HELP! Tag: Product ID Tag: 48581

    - Task Pane will not display by default when Wood 2002 opens. The Task Pane will not display by default when Microsoft Word 2002 opens. I have gone to Tools>Options and under Show I have checked Startup Task Pane. This does not cause the Task Pane to display by default when Microsoft Word 2002 opens. I have also gone to Tools>Customize>Toolbars to see if there was an option there for displaying the Task Pane on startup. There is not. Isn't there supposed to be such an option here? At any rate, I cannot get Microsoft Word 2002 to display the Task Pane when it opens. What can I do to correct this problem. Tag: Product ID Tag: 48537

    - lining up graphics with text I am creating a form which needs check boxes in front the text. The problem is the boxes I created don't always line up with text, they are either slightly above or below the horizontal line of the text. The way I created the boxes was to shrink a shape and copy to the page. Even minimizing the shape does nothing to change the alignment to the text. Tag: Product ID Tag: 48523

The PCs HD crashed and was not recoverable. I presently have a Dell with Office XP that includes Word 2002.

In a MS-WORD file, all endnotes of all chapters will be located at the end of the book. But in fact, we want that endnotes should be located just at the end of a certain chapter.

    - Linking powerpoint drawings into a Word document (or vice versa): Word hangs Hi all, the deliverables for our current software project include a design document as well as a presentation to deliver at the end of the project (sounds familiar...?). The presentation is more or less done, and now I am writing the document. But of course I would like to spare me the work of having to draw all kinds of sketches again in Word and so I would like to "hot link" some of the drawings from the PPT presentation into the Word document. This seems to be more difficult than I had expected! While it is possible to "Edit => Paste Special" => Paste Link" an entire slide, this is of course not what I want, since that includes the slide's header, footer, etc. which looks completely cheap and unprofessional. I only want the drawing being pasted! But when I try to paste the drawing only the "Paste Link" option is grayed out and I can only insert a *copy* of the current picture into the document. If I modify the picture on the slide later (which is almost 100% likely to happen) then I would have to repeat this process. Funny enough - the inverse seems possible, a drawing created in Word using "Insert => Object... => Office Drawing Object" can be hot-linked into a PPT slide using Copy & Edit => Paste Special => "Insert Link". If only I had known that before! Because, as a work-around to this asymmetry I tried to move some pictures over to Word and then hot-link them in the other direction. But this causes all kind of weird effects. Some seem to be full-blown bugs (e.g. for no apparent reason some arrow-tips are suddenly HUGE while most others are perfectly fine. Elements that have filling effects (patterns or transparency are filled with solid black, etc.), others are probably due to the fact, that graphic elements and texts obviously are not scaled alike, i.e. after pasting the text inside boxes changes has a different size relative to its surrounding elements, such that some texts suddenly don't fit their boxes or circles any more, others are wrapped at stupid places, etc. As workaround I tried to paste the stuff as Extended Meta File (.emf). While this at first seemed to work perfect, as soon as one wants to edit that picture, Word declares that to do so it has to convert that picture into an Office Drawing Object and ask whether one wants to do so. If clicking OK Word starts consuming 95+ percent CPU and hangs there. I tried a couple of times, also with different drawings but always with the same effect. Once I tried and left it running, to see whether it maybe completes after some longish period time, but after half an hour I gave up and killed it. So, what other options are there? * Is there some other way to hot-link a PowerPoint drawing into Word? * If not: what options do I have to move or convert an existing ppt drawing into Word, such that I can later also edit it there?

    - What can do to identify individual pages altered in long document What can I add to a document to know if an individual page has been altered or revised so I can print out only those pages or notify others to just review the changed pages. Of course I could write down the page numbers but that seems silly. The document is quite lengthy and I dont want to keep sending the entire book when only individual pages have been altered. Thanks.

    - footnotes I have received back a Spanish translation of my book which already contained many Spanish citations. So what I did when I sent the manuscript to the translator was to cut out all these citations since he didn't have to translate them. Now I am trying to paste these citations back into the translated text but the ones that have a footnote attached to it don't continue the numeration of the text but begin with what seems to be a random footnote number. It seems that the program sees these as two independent sets of footnotes. How can I make this work? Tag: Product ID Tag: 48430

    - Run Word in XP ? I just built new computer with Win XP. I installed Office 97(only Word, Excel, & Office Tools). Could hardly open programs, all sorts of problems. Then I uninstalled 97 and installed Office 2000 - same three selections. Was marginally better but you could tell it still was not right. Then downloaded the three recommended patches to run in XP. This program is now better, still not right. just for example, when I use the space bar it moves letter by letter. Will not scroll left or right quickly. Other minor annoyances where you can tell this is not a great installation. Any one else run into these problems? Any suggestions? Tag: Product ID Tag: 48412

    - Font(s) I scanned a document and pasted the text into a Word document.

COURIER NEW looks like it's faded and been sitting in direct sunlight for a week. HOW do I get the entire document to use the COURIER font, when it fails to show in my drop-down font list?
