Thank you for your response. The problem seems to reside in the fact that, no matter what strategy I select, I can't open Acrobat Pro. At the suggestion of another person, I uninstalled Reader, but it evidently didn't stay uninstalled. Any other suggestions? Gratefully, cherishwit

Hi, I run Windows XP, Creative Suite CS2. I received a pdf that I need to comment on then return. I can open Adobe reader, but I can't open Acrobat Pro. I've tried my desktop shortcut, start-menu pinned program name, and Explore/Program Files/... /Acrobat.exe. I have saved the pdf as a copy on...

Hi, I'm managing a large project using SharePoint and, even though we are all following the procedures our IT person told us to follow, documents are showing that they've been modified at impossible times--according to SP, I modified a document at 7:11am this morning. . . when I was eating my...

Hi, I'm working on a project with many SharePoint users and several document libraries. I have reader, contributor, and administrator privileges. I want to create a new document library and I can't figure out how to set access for the various users. When I went to manage documents and lists...

Thanks BH13, I got rid of the AOL stuff. Here's a related question. When I get to msconfig and view the start up program tab, I see a ccApp that shows an unknown source (I'm pretty sure it is related to Norton/Symantec); can I delet that as well? I ask because when I turn off/restart, I...

Greetings, I'm working on my friend's Dell XP 5.1 SP2 and when I boot the machine, a Firefox window with AOL AIM and her buddy list load. How can I get the system to A) not load the AIM stuff B) open to the desktop. Which generally is <and I do feel like a dunce here, but no question is a...

Hi, thank you all for your insightful comments. I had NO idea about the autoformatting function. quote from Gerry: I NEVER use normal style...ever. I never use direct formatting. Short or long documents, ALL of them use properly designed styles. So what style do you use for body text...

Thank you for your replies. I have tried right clicking, but it hasn't worked. I have fiddled around with outline view and then changed back to page layout view and my tiny print issue seems to be resolved. I still would like to know how to address this issue though. I think I'm going to...

FYI: the subject line is a direct quote from the Word Help function. Says I ought to be able to choose, but I can't figure out how. . .the details: I'm working in MS Word 2002 and, after I switched from page layout view with document map open to outline view, the text in document map became so...

Thanks Gerry, Well, I found some instructions that I printed from http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HPO11210281033.aspx I followed the directions, and, as far as I can tell, THIS time, I was able to get my normal template adjusted the way I want it. I guess I had been trying to...

I'm running Word 2002, SP3. Lately when I open documents--even those created by someone else with, I assume, different page setups--the margins go to 1.25 Left and Right. When I open a blank document from either open-> from template -> blank document or by clicking on the little page icon, I...

I need to edit a text that is currently in Word on a Mac (I run Word 2003 SP3 on XP) that uses a font called SouthAsianTimes that allows for Hindi diacritics. I can't find any font that the files will convert to without wrecking the diacritics. Two issues: 1. Is it possible to copy the font...

Hi Gerry, I agree that the idea is to stick with a style once that style has been created. However, modifying styles--judiciously--is part of the power of the feature. An example: While I was writing my dissertation, I was taking frequent drafts to my major professor who has both macular...

Hi and thanks for your quick response. I did, indeed, have that option checked--it's already unchecked. With regard to how I use styles, I often feel like I am the lone ranger because I DO change style settings instead of simply modifying the various formatting characteristics of a style...

Sorry about the lack of information. I'm running Word 2002 SP3 in Windows XP. Because the problem is intermittent and I can't "make" it happen, I don't know the exact wording of the message. Rest assured that, if I haven't been able to figure out how to avoid the message by the next time I...
