    - Can I buy new Word XP registration by phone or email? I need to install an additional copy of Word XP on another computer. I have a registered copy and its CDs. May I install a new copy from the old CD and then call in and pay for it by phone and register it, or must I go to a store (a long trip) and purchase new media and install from the new media? -- Bob Boudewyns Boudewyns@Bigfoot.com Tag: Task pane - Word Tag: 49360

    - How can I show certain text+pictures, but not print them ? Hello all. I have gotten the small task of trying to figure out how I can, as simply as possible (obviously), create a document where certain parts of the document will display, but not print. The request was for the ability to view certain layout features (text+pictures) from within the application, but not print it, since the paper it will eventually be printed on is pre-printed with this information. I've looked at field-codes (hoping there'd be a "don't print the contents of this field" sort of switch), and quite a number of other places, without much luck. Does anyone have an idea, apart from the Format->Background option, as to how I'd go about doing something like that ? Thanks in advance, Peter Chr. Ryskin Tag: Task pane - Word Tag: 49353

    - Susan now HOW do I remove add-in Susan, thank you for the reasons why the add-in to word should be removed. I never use any of the things it's supposed to be there for, and with all the problems it can and has caused that you listed, I WANT to remove it. I just want to do it safely. I can't be without the computer if something else goes wrong. Can you please tell me how to safely remove the MS add-in for Word? Do I just go to the control panel add remove and press remove? or does MS tell me, like with removing the works suite, that i'm going to need the CD to do it? Have YOU ever removed it? I'm really glad you're out there to help. You've been a great help to me so far. I'll wait till you answer before I do anything...and if there's some MS paper i should read before removing the add in, or any contradictions in how MS says to do it and you say to do it, perhaps you can point me to those instructions. but i prefer you writing and telling me, you seem to know how to say things clearly and simply so that even I can understand them. so very many thanks.

    - short lines in quoted email message text I'm a brand new Word-user, with Word 2000 (Office 2000), Windows 98 SE. First, let me apologize in advance for the length of this; I don't know how to make it any shorter, in order to ask my question(s). I'm trying to set up templates (with some success) to conrol various sorts of formatting. I followed Shauna Kelly's instructions for dealing with customizing Outline Numbering (thanks, Shauna!) and used help from Suzanne Barnhill to learn more about fine-tuning my styles. But I still have tons I need to learn. I have a rule for myself: no direct formatting. I removed the direct-formatting toolbar, so as not to be tempted to mess up my documents. Right now, I'm working wtih email messages, because I'll be simulating them, and/or quoting from some, in my long documents, later. For now, I'm bringing actual email messages (my own, or ones I have permission to reproduce) into Word (2000) as text files, by using Copy and Paste, after selecting New Blank Document, with my email-formatting template. I'm copy/pasting them from my text editor, to get the text into the New Blank Document (using a specific .dot file, but also, copying the format styles into normal.dot, once I'm happy with the formatting). This is specifically about short lines in a quoted signature. I need sometimes to set these up as a single-quoted passage (paragraph format?); sometimes as a double-quoted passage (!), and - I hope not often! - perhaps as a triple-quoted passage. I'll bet there are ways to do this fairly simply, but I'm so new to Word that my mind isn't wrapping around this. For now, to imitate (give the appearance of) single-quoted text, I used a border on the left side that continues through the quoted paragraph. That imitates the excerpt bars popular in Eudora. It might not be the best way to do things; should I use ">" instead? And if I do, how would I set that up in Word? I'd want to insert a ">" at the beginning of each line in the paragraph. For double-quoted paragraphs, I succeeded (it appears) in changing the left-side border to a double line from a single line. Then suddenly, I ran into this problem: Somebody quoted a signature from a previous message. The signature lines are short, not extending to the right margin of the page. Thus (inventing): Carol Whitney Second signature line Third signature line Even though I don't usually Use more than one line as A signature A signature. Now, suppose that's set as a single-quote, which, in the original email message, would look like this: > Carol Whitney > Second signature line > Third signature line > Even though I don't usually > Use more than one line as > a signature Oops - now that looks as though I'm quoting somebody else, but it's me <g>. In the original text in the email I'm formatting, those lines (in the simulated signature) would each end with a paragraph mark - in other words, a Hard Return, or a Line-Feed with Carriage Return, Hex 0D0A, if I remember right, or did I get that backwards? When a signature occurs in the original, I'm simply formatting it with Left-alighned text, hanging indents for each line (and each line of the signature is a separate paragraph). I'm adding space-before the first line of a signature, space-after after the last line of a signature, and no space-before nor space-after for all intervening lines. (Incidentally, I'm using these same formats for message headers, and for any added footer on email messages, which are sometimes added by email lists.) But for Body Text, and its relatives, I'm using Space-After, 6 points. For the simulated short-line quotes, though, I don't want any space-before nor space-after, until the last line of the grouped short-lines. Does anybody have any suggestions about how I could format quoted email text, showing some kind of "quote marks" (for single, double, or even triple-quoted text - I'm definitely not wedded to the left-side border! - don't even really care for it that much), and deal with short lines? Is there such a thing as a "NewLine" (I think that's line-feed only? without the hard Return (carriage return?) Or am I even more confused about that?) In other words, how can I get this effect: Several short lines that follow each other (and should be kept together through the last line), without added space in the style format, with some kind of quote marks - single, double or triple? Sorry I'm really rotten at asking questions, until I already know the answer(s), at which point I'm able to ask the questions <g>.

    - XP Startup Garbage Removal I have 4 users set up on my XP system. When the system starts up, I go to a login page which shows four icons, one for each user. When I click on my icon, for example, the start up process works fine, it goes to my desktop, etc. however, the process includes the automatic opening of a couple of word pad documents and an AOL instant messenger window, I do not know how they got there and I just have to close them everytime before proceeding with my work. Do you know how I can clean this up and remove those documents and windows from my startup process; (I believe one of them was inadvertantly put there by a Dell Tech support technician)? thanks, FM Tag: Task pane - Word Tag: 49316

    - Fractions In my Word 97, when I type a fraction (1/10, 1/12, etc), if it is an oft used fraction such as 1/2 or 1/4, it is reduced and all included on a single line as numerator over denominator. So far, all my searching thru menus has not turned up a way to change how fractions appear. Many times I prefer a consistancy in appearance, and occasionally it's no big deal. Any ideas anyone would like to offer about how to select the appearance of fractions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, K. Tag: Task pane - Word Tag: 49300

    - Susan flawed updates and thanks Susan, yes, there's no reason why the cd should be necessary for the removal of Works, but the ms article said it was. I just don't understand (and I really try) why these contradictory or confusing instructions seem to be the norm and not exception. But I was wondering, what kind of problems are in the add in for Word that made you tell me to remove it? which I certainly will do. But I was wondering, what kind of problems are in the add in for Word that made you tell me to remove it? which I certainly will do. As for your comments in defense of critical updates which cause "inconveniences" because the worms or viruses out there could trash our computers, I just had to respond to that. My feeling is that if Microsoft wasn't so anxious to get new products onto the market as fast as possible before they are thoroughly tested, then the critical updates wouldn't be necessary in the first place. I'm certainly not the first person to say that on these boards. I think MS is testing its products on the backs of the end users.just ordinary people like me,(and wasting our time, energy, not to mention the money we spend trying to get the products to work) that I hardly think inconvenience is the word. I have thought about it, and somehow that doesn't seem right to me...but that's just my feeling about it. I've read so many posts on the numerous newsgroups here, especially the Windows Update newsgroup, from people in a panic, a fury, or simply stumped, and it is so depressing to read these posts, but perhaps the best way to learn... (for instance service pack 4 causing all sorts of problems....no printers, etc.) that I'm always happy to have someone make me laugh about it all, and some newsgroup poster did, when he wrote "Microsoft is aware of the problem in service pack 4 and maybe a fix will be upcoming. Then again, so is Christmas." Having said all that, Susan, I'm so glad there are people like you out there who can help people like me. It doesn't make the frustration go away, but when you write as you do, clearly and straightforwardly, and especially (as was the case for the cut and paste question I asked) when you come up with a solution, it at least takes a little bit of the edge off the frustration. Thank you again for your help. I really appreciate it. Tag: Task pane - Word Tag: 49299

    - Susan thank you,but questions for Susan Barnhill (and anyone else with some answers) first, Susan, thank you for responding to my post....but i have two questions raised by what you wrote.... you said to unistall the works add-in for Word because it causes problems in word....and you said, if i read your answer to my question correctly, just to click unistall works from the add remove on the control panel and if the unistall requires the cd, then it will prompt me to use it... what i DON'T understand is....why would MS issue a critical download (the add-in) that causes problems and apparently doesn't come up with another fix to fix the problem the solution was supposed to address? and why does the microsoft bulletin on UNISTALLING WORKS tell me something something apparently DIFFERENT from what you've said? I would really like to understand what is going on there at microsoft that it issues such "clear" instructions for removing Works, involving using the cd, yet it might be possible to unistall it if the unistall doesn't prompt me to use the cd? thank you for your answer to my question. it was simple and straight-forward, which i really appreciated. thank you, and hope you have a moment to answer the two questions i asked here....

    - REMOVING WORKS Hi, i have dell laptop, running windows 2000 professional, Service pack 3....after experience some problems due to some downloads from Windows update site, i started to realize there are a LOT of programs i'd like to remove that i don't use.... I USE MS Word a lot....but i also have in ADD REMOVE microsoft works suite 2001 and something called microsoft add-in for microsoft word, and something else called the works installer...i do not use these programs, even windows tells me i use them "rarely"... after reading from this site how to remove them i guess i realize it isn't as easy as simply clicking remove from the ADD REMOVE programs in the CONTROL PANEL...the instructions say, IF i'm reading them right, that i have to use the CD for WORKS and go through the steps outlined in Q239970 "Works 2000: How to Change the Works 2000 Installation" I have a couple of questions... first, have I read the article above correctly? Is this the ONLY way to UNistall Works Suite? OR can it simply be removed in a simpler way from the ADD REMOVE portion of the control panel? second, when i clicked on the frequency of use link in the ADD REMOVE programs on these three progams i'd like to get rid of, they ALL said that the last time I used them was May 24th. in fact, i NEVER used them on that day. BUT that day WAS the day of a number of critical downloads from the update site. given what i have come to understand about how interconnected all this stuff is (i'm NOT a tech or inclined that way), will UNinstalling these programs affect the performance or functionality of my system. i HAVE to assume that whatever the downloads were, and i have a list of them by number that i made on that day, somehow affected or changed the Works programs I'd like to get rid of? All I want is simple MS WORD. and ANY help in answering these questions would really be appreciated. thank you so much. Tag: Task pane - Word Tag: 49243

    - Mathematical Equations Entry Hi I am not sure if this is the right place to post this question, and if not, forgive me for posting it here, I have a relative that is disabled. He does his school homework on a computer since he cannot hold a pencil. He is going to take a math class that incolves algebra, trigonometry and geometry. Using Insert | Object | Microsoft Equation 3.0 the equations needed can be typed. However, in the interest of speed, it would be nice to have some other means than using Insert. Does anybody know of a specialized math keyboard or a WORD add-in (point-and-click tool bar) that can accomplish this task? We have found a touch pad, AIM8, that can do this but it seems that a stylus must be used which is not viable since the stylus cannot be held and it would involve a deal of coordination for selection that is not possible. The solution would also be used by other people having this diasability. Thank you in advance for any feedback and suggestions regarding this issue. Jerry B Tag: Task pane - Word Tag: 49167

The ideal would be only the doc and a button to close the doc to return back to Access.

I spent an hour and half today at Best Buy with a repair guy who could not figure out what the problem was. He removed Word and re-installed Word without success in addition to going through all sorts of software issue in my cpu. If you have any ideas, I would be very grateful. I am not a "computer guy" so common language would sure help. Thank you. Wynn Tag: Task pane - Word Tag: 49143

    - Format envelope Word 2003 I am using the Word mail merge wizard from the toolbar to make an envelope. I am able to get return address and recipient address OK. I want to add a line to the left of the recipient address that says Address Corrrection Requested. How do I do this? So far I am only able to get the return address OR the address correction requested, not both on the envelope. Tag: Task pane - Word Tag: 49140

    - Exclude last page from page numbering I would like to exclude the last page of my document from the total amount of pages if I insert the page total. I have a BCC that I do not want included in my page count. When I insert page x of y the y count will include that BCC that I am trying to exclude. How do I exclude that last page? Thanks.

    - Aggravating "auto" change I am new to WORD 2002, and cannot figure out how to stop an aggravating feature. If I am working on a document, I may want to BOLD or to change font size on a particular line, heading, etc. When I select the item (heading, sentence, whatever) and hit BOLD or font-size change . . . the WHOLE document changes to what I only want on the selected part. How do I stop WORD 2002 from doing that (WORD 97 didn't do this!). By the way, sometimes, WORD 2002 doesn't do this, but most of the time, it does. Thanks in advance for the answer or advice.

    - Password secure folder I want to create a secure folder (directory ???) that will contain several sub-folders. I want to make the main folder password secure (not individual sub-folders and files). Is this possible? Thanks! Tag: Task pane - Word Tag: 49128

    - Upgrading to Word 2002 from 2000 I currently use Word 2000 (under Win2K), part of Office 2000. If I buy an upgrade package to Word 2002, will I be able to install the new version and also keep Word 2000. I have some clients using the latter, and would prefer to have it handy, just in case. And--as a bonus question--does anyone know whether, when the 2003 version comes out, it will permit installation of the new, with retention of the old? Thx.

Question: I can't find the Task pane (or New Document
Task pane) that are referenced in the Word chapter of the
Step by Step manual. I have MS Office XP on my IBM T30
notebook computer. Is there some way to activate this
feature or is it not available on the notebook version of
Office XP? Thanks.
