Create Master Fax like this?
Say I need a Master Fax template, where the entire fax
will (for now) occupy one A4 portrait page, and where the 1st quarter of the
page will be filled with "who it's from, who it's to, Company logo and
address etc" and
where the last quarter of the page will be filled with details concerning
such things as Internal and External distribution (who gets a copy, etc).
In principle, can I open the template and (assuming there's a way to also
lock/protect the top and bottom quarters)
be able to enter text into the middle section of the page
AND be able to freely format sections of that text (ie font, font size,
bold, underline etc)?

"Justify" doesn't seem to be working for me on Word 2003
Hi everyone, thanx for your help in advance! I am trying to fully justify a
paragraph in a normal passage, nothing fancy, but it doesn't seem to do
anything at all when I press the "justify" button in my toolbar or whether I
go through Format>Paragraph>Allignment>Justified
It continues to look like it's left justified.... right and center justified
is working fine, but I have no clue why this isn't working! Any ideas?

Bookmark question
With a new document, I insert one bookmark at the start of line1, and
another just after the middle of line1.
When I then enter some value against the 1st bookmark,
the 2nd bookmark is displaced to the right.
Can I 'fix' that 2nd bookmark, please?

Is there an option in Word 2003 that autosaves while you work? I don't mean

View editing?
I have a friend who is editing a Word document and before saving he is
changing the toolbar choice from the "final showing markup" to "final" and
emailing it to me. Yet when I open the file it is always in the "final
showing markup" mode with all the editing visible which I don't want. The
same thing happens if I try saving that way & reopening. Is there any
setting on either his machine or mine that might cause this? Neither of us
have this problem with other people although he uses Word much more than I
do. We are both using Word 2003.

Word 2003 updgrade issues
I just upgraded from Office 2000 to Office 2003. I love some of the new
features, but others are very aggravating.
If you can help, please reply.
1. When viewing text, letters are displayed in a color that seems to be one
shade grayer than black, or maybe the lines of the characters are thinner
than what was used with Office 2000. In any case, I am having a difficult
time reading them compared to Word 2000. Is there any way to fix this?
2. When editing a large document, every character I type makes the entire
document bounce up and down about an inch as WORD tries to adjust paragraph
size and placements. It is incredibly annoying to do anything, even
something simple like correct a spelling error. Is there any way to stop
this?
3. When starting any document or exiting any document, I get pop-up error
messages telling me macros are disabled. I re-enabled macros just to get rid
of these annoying messages, but they still are popping up every time. How
can I make them go away?

How to check a check box?
I am trying to construct a Word doc which can be emailed, filled in and
returned (Would that be an online form?) with some text boxes and some
yes/no check boxes. The text boxes work fine and while I have no trouble
adding the check boxes to the form but I can't figure out how User is
supposed to select them.
The only way I can place an X in one is to double click it in order to open
the "Check Box Form Field Options" dialog box and then select the
appropriate Default value. Surely this is not the normal way to check the
box, but then please tell me how else to do it? Tag: decimal to percentage Tag: 76090

mouse missing!...the arrow disappears!
On any 2003 word document, whenever i type, the mouse arrow disappears. I
already turned off this mouse function in the control panel (under mouse, you
can uncheck the option that makes the mouse disappear when you type). But the
mouse arrow disappears anyhow and I cannot locate it unless I move the mouse
out of the document...then it reappears again. But this is making moving my
cursor throughout my document very annoying. I keep having trouble finding
the arrow and have to spend time wiggling my mouse every single time I want
to see the arrow! Is this a bug? Or is there a way to make this stop? Tag: decimal to percentage Tag: 76080
Search for CAPITALIZED words?
Howdy all,
Word 2002, XP, question on searching for capitalized text in a document.
What I need to do is a Find and Replace on all capitalized text within a
document, and switch it to Bold, leaving it capitalized. There is nothing
in common with any of the words that are in caps, so there are no character
strings to search on; it'll have to be a style or font setting or??
I can find nothing that can locate non-specific text that is all
capitals. In other words, each capitalized word is different; there is no
relationship between any of the words, so there is no pattern of text to
search on; only the fact that it's body text and it's capitalized. e.g., I
might need to find /JUST, /THIS, /HOW, /WHY, ALWAYS, and so on, and change
them to Bolded characters. Usually, not always, the capitalized word will
be the first word of a sentence, but the length of the word is variable.
I've tried a lot of things including wild cards and capitalized, but to
no avail. I might be missing something silly, but if that's so, I sure
can't figure it out!
Any ideas would be most appreciated. Please make me slap my forehead and go
D'uh! <g> because the answer is actually obvious?
TIA,
Pop

Suggestions for speeding up Word 2K's performance
I doubled my RAM to no avail. The program still has the aggravating
habit of 'hanging' on a keystroke or command, not showing what the last
action was until I move the cursor or create another keystroke. Am I
clear?
I presumed it was too many programs running, too little RAM or
something else that was clogging up my memory. I've tried shutting down
everyting but the document I'm working on, and still have the problem.
I've cleaned up all the adware, spyware, etc., so that's not the
problem. I'm wondering if it's just the nature of the beast. Is there a
way to shut off part of Word to get it to run smoother? Would I be well
served buying a newer edition of Word? (and if so, do I really have to
buy all of Office or just a newer Word version?)

Removing duplicate macro code
I had three different normal.dot files, each with about 25-30 macros. Many
were duplicates. I merged the macro code manually and deleted two of the
normal.dot files so that I would have one master file with ALL of the
macros. I assumed there would be some sort of cleanup mechanism that would
allow me to quickly and easily remove the duplicate macros, or, that they
would appear in the Tools>Macro>Macros list so I could just use Delete to
get rid of them. However, the duplicate macros only appear in the list
once. This is a serious problem because everytime I want to execute ANY
macro, I get errors about all the duplicates. It says that the name is
ambiguous. If I delete two of the three sections of code for the duplicate
it was complaining about and try to run a macro again, it moves to the next
duplicate in the list and complains about the ambiguous name. I guess it
compiles the whole sheet at runtime.
Is there some way in the MS Visual Basic Editor (invoked by Word, et al.) to
remove the duplicates? Is there a way to compile the macro sheet and check
for errors? Tag: decimal to percentage Tag: 76063

Help function
Hi,
I formerly used Word 2000, with which I could use the right click on any
field to get a pop-up explaining its use. Or I could press F1 and get the
help panel.
With Word 2003, the right click seems to have no effect regarding help. And
yes, I can use F1, but not when another window is already open, for example
when I select a style, right-click it and choose edit.

Sudden invasion of "Complex Script" fonts?!
This comes under the heading of "Aaggh, what have I stepped in?!"
Word 2003, Windows XP. Suddenly today the Style and Font dialogs on 2 PCs here
are littered with extra boxes and notes about "Complex Fonts." I've never seen
that before, and I gather it's related to Asian language support. I've never
touched the language settings and have never wanted to use Word's multilingual
capabilities.
How did this happen, and how the blazes do I get rid of it? I'm trying to teach
newbies the basics, and we're getting all this extra stuff in dialogs that were
familiar & straightforward just yesterday. So far, documents are still behaving
OK, but it's a royal pain to have these extra notations in dialogs I've
deliberately tried to keep simple. (On some style descriptions it causes the
rest of the format specs to be invisible.)
A spell of Googling turned up a lot of folks who *want* this feature but only a
few who want it to go away. The recurring advice for getting rid of it is to go
to Language Settings in MS Office Tools and remove support for the other
languages. But on both of these machines, only English US is enabled.
Not sure if this is related, but I also notice some custom keyboard shortcuts
have also just stopped working, even though entering them in "New Shortcut Key"
in Tools-> Customize-> Keyboard displays what is supposedly the current assignment.
Any clues???
