    - My Word 2002 spelling checker does not correct mistakes. In some cases my spell checker does not correct mistakes. I've used all the hints in the Microsoft Word Help and it still skips errors. This is true both with automatic spell checking as I type and also when I use the F7 key. If I create a new document, spell checking works fine. The problem occurs in documents made with some templates other than Normal.dot. Any ideas? Tag: How do I convert word 2000 files to word 2003 files Tag: 68141

    - Table as Macro/Template or what? I've been a casual user of Word XP for about two years. I hate every one of its "unprecedented number and variety of features," as touted by Microsoft. I wish there was a "dumb-down" button you could press that would reduce the program to a truly user-friendly word processor for somebody who has no "power-user" ambitions whatsoever. My current challenge is to save a table I have created in such a way that with the press of a key I can insert that table in a document in such a way that I can then enter values in one of the columns of the table to regularly record the severity of symptoms of a disease I am trying to track. I have attempted to read the "help" documents on tables, macros and templates. I am totally confused. Right now I have the table saved as a simple Word document (.doc). When I open that file then select the table and paste it into another document the table comes up all over the page. Then I have to go into the table menu and fiddle with the settings to finally get it to display properly so I can enter the values--then continue to type regular text below the table. I'm on a pretty tight time structure with a terminal disease. I really prefer to not spend my limited days struggling to learn the "unprecedented features" of Word. Help!!!

Whenever I needed to delete a word, I used to double click on the word and delete it using the keyboard delete button. However, in Word 2003, after I hit Delete, I am prompted (at the bottom left of the screen) "Delete Block? No (Yes)" and if I press Y then only the word will be deleted. Can someone tell me how to avoid the prompt? I dont want a confirmation while deleting text, if required I can always undo.

    - Custom numbering with chapter number In Word 2002, I have equations (made with Word's equation editor) that I need to number. The number must be on the far right side of the line with the equation, must be surrounded by parentheses and must have the form x.y, where x is the chapter number in which the equation appears and y is the number of the equation, which restarts at 1 in each chapter. For example, a = b + c (3.2) Is there a way to make numbers like this that update automatically as more equations are inserted? It seems like fields such as SEQ or LISTNUM would work, but I don't see how to get the chapter number or correct format with them. Thanks.

I have how ever realized that some minipulation can be done using the crtl-Keys , but this is stil limited and cumbersome, so its not what I would like to do . Is there any one who has ever had a simular problem and , what did you do to restore the defaults. The MS Document I found on the Web assumes that you still have a menu Option to go to customize, but in my case there is nothing available to use to get to these tools , Options at all ? What a trtip, this is a good one for the most of us, got me stumped for 3 Days and still no resolution. Now I need help, or should I just go back to Wordstar, of Samna ...Ha Ha.. just kidding but that tells you how long I have been dealing with thses systems and this one has got me stumped, along with a few other Die hards...

    - Identifying full-width/zenkaku (Japanese) characters within a document... Hi all, I work in the translation business (Japanese -> English) and have bee tasked with creating a Word (Office XP) macro to identify stra double-byte(zenkaku) characters that have been missed during th translation process. We use Trados 6.5 in conjunction with Word and invariably we find a fe double-byte characters or words mixed in with the rest of th single-byte text that we need to find and change. My group leader created a macro that simply examines each word, one b one (!) to determine if it contains double-byte characters or not, an if it does, it flags it with '@' and changes the font color to red s we can go through later and manually correct the text. The following is a code snippit that contains the loop the macro use to go through the text character by character: Code ------------------- WordCount = ActiveDocument.Content.Words.Count i = 1 While i < WordCount + 1 Application.StatusBar = i & "/" & WordCount & " ???[?h?ð?????µ?Ä?¢?Ü?·..." LenOrgWord = LenB(ActiveDocument.Content.Words(i)) LenCvtdWord = LenB(StrConv(ActiveDocument.Content.Words(i), vbFromUnicode)) If LenOrgWord = LenCvtdWord Then With ActiveDocument.Words(i) .InsertBefore ("??") .Font.Color = wdColorRed End With i = i + 1 WordCount = WordCount + 1 End If i = i + 1 Wend ------------------- Needless to say this is extremely SLOW when you have a 300+ pag document to check! So I am wondering if perhaps there is a mor efficient way of going about this? I was tempted to simply search using Find and setting Format>Font t '?l?r ?¾?©' but I can't figure out how to specify that I'm only lookin for full-width(zenkaku), ?l?r ?¾?© characters and no half-width(hankaku), ?l?r ?¾?© characters (i.e. as long as we can fin all the zenkaku characters in the document, it doesn't matter i they're using a Japanese font). Is there, perhaps, a regex I can use with Find (e.g. ([A-Z]*), etc.)? Thanks in advance for your help.

One user SWEARS that every time you hit save the document gets saved to some mysterious file..she wants to find that file.
