    - Can a style have a text constant ? Can a style include a constant text phrase or special character. For example, could a style include the prefix "SECTION - " , so that the user would not have to enter the same text constant before each section heading. Sample follows: SECTION - How to Fold Your Paper Airplane Insert paragraph here about how to fold the airplane. SECTION - How to Fly Your Paper Airplane Insert paragraph here about how to fly the airplane. Tag: How do I delete letters on right of cursor Tag: 110376

    - automated documents I want to create a simple template which when opened will ask me to fill in a couple of variables, then place the answer in the document. I've looked at the "ask" and "ref" fields, but what I need to know is how to open the document so that the prompts pop up. This will go onto a Memorandum template. So what I want to happen is that when I access the document, I'm asked to fill in the blanks (i.e. "Recipient's name?"), then what I type is plunked into the document in the right place.

    - Insert Date make Bold Macro I don't know how to write macros but I do know how to record them and make icons for them that I put on the toolbar. Or I did back before Word 2007. The goal is to have an icon always accessable on the toolbar, not in a contextual menu, where I can select a macro that inserts the date in a particular format and makes it bold and sets spacing following it. I had this in Word 2003. When I try to use the record macro function to do the above operations I am stuck because while the macro recorder is running, after I have inserted the date in a selected format, I am not able to highlight the date text and make it bold. The little recorder icon hovers near the text but I can't select the text. What should i do? \walter Tag: How do I delete letters on right of cursor Tag: 110362

    - Footer problems Word 2002 New job, new letterhead, office converting from WP. I got the letterhead figured out OK by using 'different first page'. But we often have multiple page FAX sheets which presents a different problem.. If it's a one page fax, it needs a header and a footer. The footer is the (long) caution paragraph. If there is more than one page, then we need a header on the first page only and the footer only on the 2nd or last page. I can't get this to work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    - Editing an object I'm not sure if this is rally a Word 2003/WinXP Home question but here goes. I downloaded the printout of a powerpoint presentation. It consists of a set of single page objects (for want of a better term?). Each object is a page sized box complete with handles. it also contains text. I'd like to be able to make some edits to the text. But the object, as it appears on the screen doesn't permit it. Is there a simple, or even a not-so-simple way to do this?

Anyway I seem to have done something which has caused a blue filter/highlighter of some sort to appear every time I click on my work, which then makes adding or editing it pretty impossible! Can anyone throw some light on what I have done, and how to get rid of it, and what is the blue filter/highlighter for? Please Help!!!! Tag: How do I delete letters on right of cursor Tag: 110326

    - How to disable 2 page view? Hi all, I've just started using Word 2007. When in 'Print Layout' view (I like to see the margins when I'm writing) and I zoom a page after setting it to 'One page' view it will suddenly switch to show 2 pages, side by side. It refuses to show a single page at the zoom level I want. And I never want to see a side by side view of pages. Ever. I have a large widescreen monitor and I want the page to always appear in the middle of the screen. Always, regardless of zoom level. Word used to do this. How do I disable this annoying behaviour?

    - Printing a booklet as part of a book I have created a 240-page book in MS Office Word 2007. I want to print out one copy on my LexMark645 printer (as a gift). To do this, I need to divide my book into 10 or so "booklets", to be bound together. In other words, each booklet needs to have booklet pagination, both sides. The sheets are standard 8.5 x 11. Printed in landscape orientation, each sheet will have two of my pages facing one another, and two more on the reverse side. Standard stuff. All my pages, headers and all, look fine on Word, but LexMark has its own settings (including booklet settings) and I can't seem to figure out what combination will work; I think one is fighting the other. Do I create half-width "free standing" pages in Word, or use the two-pages-per-sheet setting, or bookfold, or mirror, or WHAT? I think I can figure out "why this setting is necessary" if I START OUT with the right settings given to me very precisely. But I have trouble starting from the other end, with a lot of context and general explanation, as one usually finds in manuals. It doesn't seem that for something this basic, I would need special macros or templates. I also need to know how to select and limit the book segments that I want to booklet-ize. Can I do it by highlighting?--inserting section breaks interferes with my Header commands. Thanks, Esardi Tag: How do I delete letters on right of cursor Tag: 110301

    - Format Confusion Hi, I have a document in Word 2003 that had data pasted in from several sources, but I cannot figure out why the indent markers on the ruler do not match the text. When I apply a style to the problem paragraph, it does not conform to the indents of the style - I tried Normal and several others and the text always ends up .5" further from the margin than is defined in the style. I have a screenshot of the issue here: http://home.comcast.net/~reitanospa/junk/formatproblem.jpg Here's a rundown of the screenshot: The insertion point is to the left of "To configure" The paragraph is styled as Normal (as is the paragraph above it) All non-printing characters are displayed The indent for Normal is set at .25" The text starts at .75" and wraps to that same point The indent markers on the ruler are at .25" as is the setting in the Paragraph dialog Any ideas? I have approximately 60 pages to clean up and would rather not copy and paste one paragraph at a time into "good" paragraphs. Thanks. Tag: How do I delete letters on right of cursor Tag: 110263

The Delete key deletes to the right, and the Backspace key deletes to the
left (if text is selected, then pressing Backspace deletes the selection
unless "Typing replaces selection" is turned off).
