    - Standard save-as/open dialog box Hello All Is it possible to get MS word 2000 (MS Small Business) to use the same open and save-as dialog box format as everything else in my Win98 computer? I have freeware that lets me customized the open/save-as locations so I don't have to drill all the time, but it works to the standard dialog box and not that odd one they have program into Using the Word save-as history button sometimes helps some, but it creates a list that I have to drill through anyway. I'm doubtful there's a workaround for this, but maybe someone here has something. Thanks. -- Regards, Anthony Giorgianni The return address for this post is fictitious.

    - help freezes Anyone have a solution for the help screen always freezing? If I hit "F1" and word doesn't recognize what I'm looking for, it brings up the "Ways to get Assistance" screen as a single pane in the help window, and won't include the pane with the Contents / Answer Wizard / Index tabs. When I hit the "Show/Hide" button to bring up the pane, help always freezes and requires a ctrl-alt-del taskmanager to shut it down (can't right click to get the pop-up to shut it down). This ALWAYS happens the first time I (try to) use help each day (or session, if I restart my computer during the day). It frequently happens (on the first help usage of the session) as well if I hit "F1" and word DOES recognize what I'm looking for but I want to switch to a different tab (it opens contents and I want the index, etc), but I can usually right-click on the help window in the taskbar and bring up the pop-up menu to remove shutdown help. I'm running WinXP Pro 2002 SP1 & Word 2000 SP3 tia. -- ____________________________________________________________________________ ________________ Please reply to newsgroup so everyone can benefit.

    - Count with percent IÂ´ve made an invoice with form fields. On every row with items there's 6 columns. 1. Articlenumber 2. Item's name 3. Number of items (how many) 4. Price per item 5. discount (in percent) 6. The total sum of the row. The 6th column takes no 3 and no 4 and multiplies them. Also it should decrease the sum with the discount, but I just can't work this out! I know this must be simple, but it won't work for me if I get another sum than 100 from 3 and 4.

    - Word crashing consistently Hi, we've been having a problem with a user running WinXP pro with office XP pro SP3. Essentially, if he opens up a new word session and clicks the bullets and numbering button, the application crashes and closes. Also, we have custom templates (dot files) that we created for our business documents and whenever he opens this template to create a new file, he is unable to open the style and formatting pane. If he does attempt to open it, Word crashes in the same way. We tried uninstalling office and reinstalling. Nothing changed. We tried renaming the Normal.dot file to have it recreate a new one, and once again, nothing happened. We also noticed that this problem only occurs on his profile. If I log into his computer with my account, everything is fine, and I can open up all the panes. Anyway, I hope you can help me out here. I looked on MS website and couldn't find anything in the knowledge base or their hotfixes. Thanks a lot, Marc Tag: Word2000 tool bar problem Tag: 64228

    - two problems Hello, Small Problem: Is there a way to force Word to always open a document at 100 percent size. My program often opens a document at 140% or even 200%. Bigger Problem: 60 percent of the time when I close Word it crashes. If I tick "Use Word as editor" in Outlook this will increase to about 90 percent. Then it wants to recover the document (I've learned to always save the document before I close) and it wants to send a report to Microsoft (and I've let it send hundreds).

    - Word saves a copy of all changes I make? I've heard that Word XP saves some evidence of all changes and revisions that I make to a document. For example, if I am keeping a log and in June, I correct/rewrite an entry from April (in the same document), someone would be able to detect that the entry was not written in April. This can be a problem with legal ramifications. Is there a way to shut this feature off and get rid of any record of changes made? How would I check if any record of re-write was left on my hard drive? Is there a negative consequence to shutting off a feature like this? Thank you for any help.

    - Remember what printer to use in a doc file Can Word 2003 on Win XP Home remember what printer to use with each doc file? I cannot seem to make this happen. If I print a doc file on a specific printer, then save that doc file, and then in a subsequent session reload that doc file, the printer gets reset to the default printer. I've a bunch of documents which should always print on one printer, another bunch that should print on a second printer, and so on--they are special-purpose and customized for their target printer.

    - 3D borders My son would like to get a 3D border around some text (Word 2003 on Win XP Home). We try the Format->Borders and Shading menu to get a dialog box and push the 3D button, but the border stays flat (no change from the standard Box border). When we reopen the Format->Borders and Shading dialog on the text around which we have placed the "3D" border, the Borders-And-Shading dialog indicates that the border is "Box", not "3D". So somehow the 3D is refusing to take. How do we get a 3D border (and what does it look like, anyway)?

    - inserting files - problems with formatting i have a user who has 300 files that he wants to insert into one word document .. okay, no problem, have code that will do this - however, each of these documents is formatted inconsistently to the others but he wants each one to retain its own formatting. I thought that placing a section break before the insertion of the first file & in code after the insertion of each additional file would mean that the documents retain their own formatting but its not happening. Font colour is staying okay but font type / size / borders etc is being "lost" and changed to the document that the other documents are being inserted into. Any ideas?

    - Winword caused error in GDI.EXE Crazy thing this morning: When I opened seemingly innocent Word documents, I received this error message: "Winword has caused an error in GDI.EXE. Winword will now close." And it did. Poked around on Google and saw a few hits that mentioned a connection between this error message and Internet Explorer. (Didn't make sense to me, either.)

Open Tools | Customize and drag the extra ones off. But I'd be willing to be
they will continue to multiply because a poorly written add-in is probably
adding one at startup.
