    - Automatic date formatting? I'm editing a document where the date is given in the MM/DD/YYYY format. Our style guidelines call for the MMMM D, YYYY style in the body text format, but the MM/DD/YYYY style in table cell text format. I am looking for a quick and easy fix that would find dates in body text format, and automatically change them to the right format. I tried a number of search terms in Google Groups to find a solution to this, for surely I am not the first person to want this. I found a number of references to setting the default date format, which would be find in the documents I write, but doesn't seem to help with documents other people write. Am I searching for the impossible? Has someone written a macro that would cover this? I'd appreciate any help the Word mavens here could give me, and I'll keep checking back to check for possible solutions. Thanks in advance--Eva Whitley Tag: Screen tips Tag: 57899

Hello all, I am in a dilemma, I live with 2 teenage boys, both of whom are studying the same course at middle school, they save their work in their own default mydocuments folders that were created when their users were made. But they can browse in word to the other's folder. The elder now has the habit of inserting words and pictures in the younger's homework. is there any way in word to lock the browser window to root at \windows\profiles\danny\my documents for danny and of course david's for david so they cant browse above it to change the other's homework.

    - TURN $12 INTO $12,000 NOW!!! EEP THIS SHIT YALL MY FRIEND GOT $500 LAST WEEK TRYING THIS SHIT: make extra cash GREAT WAY TO BECOME RICH...INSTANT THOUSANDS This is no scam, read it!!!!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- HOW TO TURN $12 INTO $12,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS REALLY CAN MAKE YOU EASY MONEY!! IT WORKS !!! BUT YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW IT TO THE LETTER FOR IT TO WORK!!!! : A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroup, just like you are now and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $12.00! So I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam", but like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. : Anyway, it said that you send $2.00 to each of the 6 names and address stated in the article. You then place your own name and address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroup. (There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after thinking it over, and talking to few people first, I thought about trying it. I figured what have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $12.00, right? Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspects of it : All, So I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal! Then I invested the measly $12.00. Well GUESS WHAT!!?. Within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my first week, I made about $25.00. By the end second week I had made a total over $1,000.00! In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. Its : Certainly worth $12.00, and 6 stamps, I have spent more than that on the lottery!! : Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works?.also, make sure you print a copy of this article NOW, so you can get the information off of it as you need it. STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now get 2 US $1.00 bills and place TWO inside EACH of the 6 pieces of paper so the bills will not be seen through the envelope to prevent thievery. Next, place one paper in each stating the above phrase, your name and address, and 2 $1.00 bills. What you are doing is creating a service by this. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses: #1) Corteney Tomson P.O. Box 55 Dupo, IL 62239 #2) Brad Taylor 6 Terry Ln. Hutchinson, KS 67501 #3) Cedric Etienne 239 Autumn Breeze Way Winter Park, FL 32792 #4) Stephen Mitchell 1977 Alcovy Trace Way Lawrenceville, GA 30045 #5) Melissa Martinez 15440 sw 74 cir ct #607 Miami, FL 33193 #6) Maurice Sawyers 49 Middle Rose St Trenton, NJ 08618 STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc?.) and add YOUR Name as number 6 on the list. STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as close to original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups, message board. (I think there are close to 24,000 groups) All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you make!---- DIRECTIONS----HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS, MESSAGE BOARD----------Step 1) You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own posting. Simply put your cursor at the beginning of this letter and drag your : Cursor to the bottom of this document, and select 'copy' from the edit menu. This will copy the entire letter into the computer memory. Step 2) Open a blank 'notepad' file and place your cursor at the top of the blank page. From the 'edit' menu select 'paste'. This will paste a copy of the letter into notepad so that you can add your name to the list. Step 3) save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If you want to do your postings in different sittings, you'll always have this file to go back to. : Step 4) Use Netscape or Internet explorer and try searching for various newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions.) Just example you log on any search engine like yahoo. com,google. com,altavista. com,excite. com then you search with this subject ? millionaire message board? or ?money making message board? or ? employment message board? or ?money making discussions? or ?money making forum? or ?business message board? etc. You will find thousand & thousand message board. Click one by one then you will find the option post a new message. : Step 5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new message by highlighting the text of this letter and selecting paste from the edit menu. Fill in the Subject, this will be the header that everyone sees as they scroll through the list of postings in a particular group, click the post message button. You're done with your first one!. : Congratulations? THAT'S IT! All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post away, after you get the hang of it, and it will take about 30 seconds for each newsgroup! ** REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS OR MESSAGE BOARD YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU EILL MAKE!! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200** That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the world within days! You may eventually can rent a P.O. Box due to the large amount of mail you will receive. If you wish to stay anonymous, you can invent a name to use, as long as the postman will deliver it. **JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT. ** : Now the WHY part: Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a very low example). So then I Made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 5 persons who just sent me $2.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the original 5, that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4 and only 5 replies each, I will bring in an additional :$125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an additional $625.00! OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with my name at #2 and they only receive 5 replies, that just made me $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200 newsgroups react I will receive $15,625.00! With an original investment of only $12.00! AMAZING! When your name is no longer on the list, you just take latest posting in the newsgroups, and send out another $12.00 to names on the list, putting your name at number 6 again. And start posting again. The thing to remember is, do you realize that thousands of people all over the world are joining the internet and reading these articles everyday, JUST LIKE YOU are now!! So can you afford $12.. and see if it really works?? I think so? People have said, 'what if the plan is played out and no one sends you: the money? So what are the chances of that happening when there are tons of new honest users and new honest people who are joining the internet and newsgroups everyday and are willing to give it a try? Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day, with thousands of those joining the actual Internet. AND YES YOU HAVE TO SEND THE MONEY FOR THIS TO WORK!!!dont try not to,IT WONT WORK TRUST ME Tag: Screen tips Tag: 57864

    - Tracked Changes view switching from Final w/Markup to Final A fellow employee is tracking changes in her document, which actually is a form, with the view mode set to Final Showing Markup. When she sends it to co-workers for review, it changes the view to Final, regardless of what the recipient's default view setting is. This is preventing her recipients from automatically seeing the tracked changes likes she wants. I had her send it to me as a test, knowing that my default view is Final showing Markup and, sure enough, when I opened the form, it changed to Final and I cannot see the changes unless I go in an manually change the view. What is causing it to default to Final and how can this be turned off or changed? Thanks!

    - Character Styles We are using Word 2002 SP-2 and are trying to create a character style which would shade text, but would not change any other of the text's properties. (We want to duplicate the font property "Redline" that our users are accustomed to using in WordPerfect.) I have tried setting the "Style Based On" to "(underlying properties)" and to "default paragraph font", but when I apply the newly created style, it always changes the font back to what I had in place when I created the style. When I modify the style, I do not see any font designated. Is there a way to create a character style so that it only changes one attribute and does not change any other property of the text? Also, what is the difference between underlying properties and default paragraph font? I'm assuming that underlying properties allows for other character attributes which may have been applied, in addition to the paragraph font. Is that right?

    - Cursor disappears in Word 2003 and never returns I've looked all over for the answer to this question, but I haven't much to go on. The problem is this: Every time I use Word 2003, before I get to the end of the first page, the cursor will disappear. Actually, the whole machine freezes and has to be restarted. It happens with both the integrated graphics chip on my computer, a graphics board I've installed and uninstalled, Microsoft Mouse Intellipoint 4.0 and 5.0, plus uninstalling everything Microsoft Office and reinstalling. A further oddity. Photoshop is normally well-behaved, but if I'm running Word and switch to PS before Word freezes, then Photoshop will invariably freeze. I'm not able to reproduce the exact sequences involved, but the end result is *always* the same. Word alone will lose the cursor and freeze before the end of the first page. Photoshop will invariably freeze if I've started a document in Word -- sometimes right away, sometimes after a few minutes. Any ideas? I'd really appreciate anything anybody has.

    - Works Suite 2002 won't install word? Anyone have any idea why I can't get word 2002, which is on my work suite 2002 disks, to install. I bought works suite 2002 2 years ago installed it and used word. It worked fine. This past Dec reformatted HD, and have just got around to reinstalling word. I trie to install just word and it said it was unavailable. then I tried t install the whole works suite and when I went to programs to look t see if word was there it was not. I bought this program it isn't pirate copy. Anyone have any idea why I can't install the word portio of the suite. All the other programs installed just fine. Any help would be appreciated. thanks in advance for any help. edg4 ----------------------------------------------- ~~ Message posted from http://www.ExcelTip.com ~~View and post usenet messages directly from http://www.ExcelForum.com Tag: Screen tips Tag: 57740

    - Display text onMouseover Subject: Display text onMouseover Newsgroups: GeorgeDidIt:microsoft.public.word.pagelayout I have a 400 page book I created in Word 2002, that has book and page references at the end of the book. What I want to do is have that reference text be displayed in the formal document when the user holds the mouse over the refeerence point. I look at the "add html, and that does show me how to do this, but it won't allow me to cut and past to this "display this text" box, and there are far too many references to have to type these in again. Is there an easier, faster way? George Didit Iowa Tag: Screen tips Tag: 57734

    - pictures When I copy a picture into "my Pictures after a shorttime the picture turns into what looks like a piece of paper with a scroll on it. What is going on? and what can I do about it? Tag: Screen tips Tag: 57732

I have just upgraded to Word 2002 and after much fiddling
around I have established that if I can use screen tips to
view comments by hovering over the commented text.
However, I use the same package at home and at work but
the two behave differently. At work the screen tip remains
visible as long as I keep the cursor over the commented
text. At home the screen tip flashes up but then
disappears again before I've had time to read it. It
doesn't appear again unless I move the cursor away and
back again but I still can't read it. I've looked at all
the options but I can't see anything obviosuly diffeerent
between the two set ups. Does anyone have any idea what I
need to do to be able to see the comments on my machine at
home in the same way I can on my machine at work?

This is a bug that surfaced in Word 2002. The fix, oddly enough, is to
display, then hide, the Document Map. This must be done once per document.
See "WD2002: Footnote ScreenTip May Not Be Displayed" at
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=318865 or "WD2002: ScreenTip for Footnote
or Endnote Reference Mark Flickers and Contains No Text When You Rest the
Pointer Over the Mark" at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=324289
