Checking for null field on exit
I have a Word 2003 form that I want to check to see if a particular
form field is null when exiting/saving the document. If it is, then I
want to prompt the user to either go ahead and close form without
entering required data, or go back and enter the data.
I have a macro to check when exiting the form field, but it does not
check to see if the field is null if the user never enters the field.
The required field's bookmark is called StudentID.
Thank you in advance for any help in writing this marco.

One small problem
In word 2007, while generating a letter, I want:
Ajax Company

Anytown, XX 12345
Instead I get
Ajax Company

Properties page
Hi,
there use to be a popup page with all the properties of that document on it in Word 2002 like the date of creation
modified date size etc. But now in Word 2007 the properties is an insert that you put your own information in.
Is there still such a page/popup that has all the doc. info? I know some of this is in the right click on the doc.file
but would like the complete information if possible.

Can't get rid of double space
Hi,
Every time I open a new document or change format in Word 2007 it always goes to double space and I have to go into the
paragraph section and keep checking "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style". With line spacing set to
single.
I do have a screen short but don't want to send it unless it is permitted.
I never had this problems with Word XP.
Is there something I can do to have all my documents always use single space?

Macro help please!
I'm completely new to Word 2007. While trying to figure out how to have all
my business cards absorb the same changes I made to one, i went to Graham
Major's site and downloaded what i thought was the right macro.
I created the macro, but now I can't get things that I used to be able to
do. For example, I created a template wherein I inserted the date update with
each new letter. It worked fine, until I installed this macro. Now, where the
date is supposed to show up on the template, I get a strange configuration of
characters that says:
{DATE\@"M/d/yyyy"}
No date shows up on the letter. How do I get my old system back? I've
deleted what I though was the macro that caused the problem, but the above
keeps showing up whenever I go to insert a date.

Creating columns - Word 2007
I'm mostly proficient in WordPerfect, but trying to come up to speed in Word
2007 (some limited past experience with Word 2002-2003). I'm trying to
create a document with 4 columns that will allow me to enter information in
the first column, move to the second, third and fourth in order then back to
column 1. In WordPerfect this is known as "parallel" columns as opposed to
"newspaper" type columns.
I can't seem to get this to work in Word and finally had to resort to using
a 4-column table which operates much the same way but doesn't allow for
spacing between cells that columns would. Also it requires formating if the
borders are to be removed.
Does Word have this feature in columns? While I don't use it often it is
definitely occasional use and would be nice to have.
Thanks for any wisdom on this subject. Tag: Word 8-2002 : right click .rtf or .doc opens blank word Tag: 101007

Having Footer ony appear on 1st page of doc
Word 2002 SP3
Win XP HE
Hi,
A) I am creating some letterhead and have put my address and phone
numbers inside the footer.
At the moment, that text in the footer appears in the footer of all pages.
However, it seems better/more proper to only have it appear in footer of
first page. (Unless I am incorrect and having the address and phone
numbers in footer of all pages is more conventional?)
How do I get the text in the footer to appear *only* on first page of
document?
B) When I started typing in the footer and creating line breaks with
<enter>, the footer automatically increased its height. I have had to
lower the bottom margin to 0.75 instead of 1". Is that a problem?
Should I leave it at 1" as far as perhaps printing is concerned, etc.?
Or perhaps, there is a way to type in the footer with line breaks and
have footer retain its original dimensions?
Thanks for the feedback--I am in need of getting this done ASAP as
working on proposal for Monday morning. Tag: Word 8-2002 : right click .rtf or .doc opens blank word Tag: 100977

Hidden Folders
I back up selected files and folders to a portable Iomega USB 250GGB hard
drive, using Iomega backup software "Iomega Automatic Backup Pro" The
software lets you create a backup data set folder into which the desired
files and folders to be backed up are copied into. You can create multiple
backup sets, and I currently have four.
But for some reason, while the older three display and behave normally, the
most recent backup set folder does not appear in My Computer or Windows
Explorer. However, I'm certain the backup folder is present on the drive,
for the following three reasons:
1. When I request a backup to that folder, during the copy process the
Iomega software provides a running list of files being backed up
2. During backup, the external hard drive is in continuous read/write
motion, and finally
3. I used Properties to check the hard drive capacity before and after. It
increased by about 7 GB, the approximate volume of the other backup sets.
So why do three appear, while the fourth is invisible. I've checked to
ensure that folder options display both hidden and system files. Is there
some other way a folder could remain hidden?
Or should I pay Iomega their $25 pound of flesh for tech support?

How do I avoid wasting space with a large picture in my document?
Hello,
I have a Word document (Word 2003 if it makes any difference), and I
want to insert a flowchart that I created in PowerPoint as a picture.
The flowchart is pretty much the full size of a sheet of paper.
My problem is that if I insert the picture, it goes into the text where
I inserted it. Normally this is exactly what I want, but in this case, I
would prefer it if the text before and after the picture would move
around to fill up the space before the picture, rather than leaving a
(potentially) large amount of space on the last page before the picture.
Can this be done? If so, how?
I hope this is clear. If anyone has any ideas, I would be very grateful.
TIA

Can't delete file after rename/save as
So I am going about converting my .doc files to .docx files. (I don't
know the compelling logic behind the change of extension, but it has
definitely been a big productivity boost for me.)
I load a .doc file and "Save as" ,docx. Now I have 2 files with the
same name and a different extension.
Since I opened it from Explorer, I just Alt-Tab back and try to delete
the old one. But it won't let me do that. Even thogh Word is no longer
editing the old one, the error message says that it is. I have to
close the new one before I can delete the old one.
Do these guys do any testing at all?
Is there a utility that will convert all of the docs in a folder to
the new format and erase the old ones?
I tried just renaming it, but then Word is too stupid to load it. Too
simple and obvious, I guess.
Anyone have a better method? I have several thousand to do.
I am actually starting to like at least some of the new features, but
the migration plan is a disaster. Arrogance or stupidity.
