Choose to pick entry
Hi everyone,
I have a form that I use with many clients.
I want to have a section where I can just click to the area where thei
Name, Address, etc. can be placed. Possibly it could show just the firs
name of the person and I could just click the name and the address an
other information could be filled in the area.
Anyone that can assist in this, it will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Crai

Selecting the right document
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
ActiveDocument.Unprotect
WordBasic.MailMergeFindEntry
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Windows("SERVICE AGREEMENT (Read-Only)").Activate
Selection.WholeStory
Selection.Copy
Documents.Add DocumentType:=wdNewBlankDocument
Selection.PasteAndFormat (wdPasteDefault)
Selection.TypeBackspace
ActiveDocument.Protect Password:="", NoReset:=False, Type:= _
wdAllowOnlyFormFields
Windows("SERVICE AGREEMENT (Read-Only)").Activate
ActiveDocument.Protect Password:="", NoReset:=False, Type:= _
wdAllowOnlyFormFields
End Sub
Okay, here is my script. As you can see after a new document i
created the origingal merged document (read-only) is selected t
protect it. Now my problem is that although i want "Servic
Agreements" protected I want the new document to be showing. Wha
would be the script that would allow me to leave the new documen
active but still protect 'service agreement'
NOTE: Making the new document active after the at the end would no
work as there can be several new documents created ie 'document 1'
'document 2' etc. I want the most recent document to be active.
Thanks

Weird message on closing Word
This may be related to a recent installation of Norton Anti-Virus because I
don't recall seeing it before, but now every time I close Word I get a
dialog box asking
Do you want to save the changes you made to "Windows In Taskbar.dot"?
The options are yes, no or cancel, and I'm saying no because I have no idea
what this is.
I'm using Word 2000 with Windows 2000 and everything is fully updated.
Thanks for any help.

Favorites gone in 2003
I recently upgraded from Office 2000 to Office 2003. Now whe I open word
documents from Word, I no longer have the Favorites folder on the left side
of the screen. I can add items to "My Places", but I have many folders in the
"My Places" and each is listed individually in the dialog box and scrolling
through them is not worth the effort. Is there a way to get the favorites
folder back?

WEB Fields into Word Document
Is there a way to enter text fields on a WEB page and then when you click on
a SUBMIT button, it places these entered fields onto a preformated Word
Document and then sends that document (by email) to a preset email address.
Anyone know of any examples or how to perform this task.

Form AutoText Completion
I have designed a protected form with fields to be completed. Is there a
way that once, say one field is completed, this text is then duplicated in
certain other fields. So for example, if you input a name, then this name
is then autocompleted in other sections to save entering the details time
and time again.

Email hyperlinks not working
I've pretty much posted this everywhere - maybe someone
here can help.
I'm using Word 2003 as my email editor. When I click on a
hyperlink in an incoming email message, it opens Internet
Explorer, BUT, nothing comes up. The only way it will
open the hyperlink is if another instance of Internet
Explorer is open. It is as if the hyperlink is not
triggering IE to launch totally.
Any ideas?
All information will be greatly appreciated.

Auto-selecting entire fields within a doc?
I'm using Word 2002, and this feature seems to have disappeared. As fa
back as I can remember, I've been able to easily select an entire fiel
displayed in a document by dragging the mouse over the first couple o
characters. (Similar to the auto select entire word.) Now it only doe
one character at a time.
This isn't a big deal until I want to edit the definition for a TOC b
highlighting the whole thing and clicking "Edit Field". It doesn'
recognize it as a field and I have to recreate the TOC entirely.
Is there a setting somewhere for this? I couldn't find it in the Wor
options list. I've done a lot of VB customization and I'm wondering i
I mistakenly set something through VB. Thanks for any help!

Word 2003 for Word 97 User

just installed Word 2003 in 2 machines while most of us
still using Word 97.
We would like to know in order to make our documents
compatibitble. What settings should we set up in Word
2003 ?
Under Tools --> Save, Should we select "Disable features
introduced after Word 97" ?
Under Tools --> Compatibility, Should we
select "Recommended options for Windows 97" ?
OR we don't need to do anything and they (Word 2003 and

figuring page x of y
Hi
Honestly - I seldom use Word, so this might be a overly basic question...So
don't laugh !
A document was faxed to me for editing (this doc not available to us
electronically)
The pages were numbered 1 of 125 to 125 of 125. However, corrections weren't
required on all the pages.
How do I use the x of y pages in the footer, but with numbers of my
choosing, e.g.;
2 of 125, then 8 of 125, 15 of 125, etc. I want to email the finished
product back, without blank pages.

Word lists (as opposed to word count)
Is there a facility to list all the words used in a Word document? I don't need to know the word length but the vocabulary list of any given piece of text. Frequency of occurence would be useful but not essential. It would not need to be used with a dictionary or spell-checker, but simply to list every different combination of letters separated by spaces. This would mean I could find out what sort of language complexity a text has in any language by knowing which words it uses (useful both in my capacity as a language teacher and a language learner).
If there is no such function in Word, are there any commercially available programs on the market that do this?

File - Open - takes a really long time!
Hello,
I am using Office 2003. When I try to open a file, the open file dialog
comes up and when I click the drop down arrow in the Look In: field, it
takes a minute or two for the directory list to drop down. It never used to
take this long; however, recently, a dialog popped up and said something
about indexing or searching (I didn't read it very closely - but clicked the
OK button), then the next thing I know, every time I try to open a file, it
takes forever to get the directory list.
Any idea how to turn this feature OFF.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Field Code issue in printing comments
Hi
I am printing a doc in W2000, and for some reason some of the comments
on the last page show the page number before the comment entry text,
and the remainer don't. I have tracked this to a field code issue,
however cannot find how to resolve it to make them all the same.
I actually want to print the page number preceding each comment, so
assume that the field code is somehow responsible for this. I did not
do anything deliberately to turn the code on to make some of the
comments display page numbers and others no to. I have tried Shift + F9
on the comments not displaying the page number however it has not
worked.
Appreciate advice on how to include the page number before each comment
when I print the comments page out.

grid in WORD
I am not sure which group is more appropriate, so I'll post it here and in

I teach mathematics.
I type my math tests on WORD 97 (I use it in conjunction with MATh Type).
Is there a way to incorporate a small grid on my tests (for graphing
problems)?
I know on the bottom of the screen if I click on Draw I can then choose grid
and it asks for some settings. But I don't know how to put a grid in my

Currently, I made a grid on a MS WORKS spreadsheet and I can copy and paste,
but I would like to do it in WORD. (I can also create one in Geometer's
Sketchpad and do the same) Any ideas? I must be missing something simple.
