    Split pages

A friend of mine and I are re-writing a text and instead of the usual format of row-style commentary a la re-write 1st comment 2nd comment 2nd re-write We would like to do a side-by-side, columnstyle so that I can do my re-write and he can do his and...

    Word formatting problem

    Good point. Ouch. I hope I find a fix and do not have to redo it from scratch. I am working on a smaller copy of the file and doing Find&Replace in Notepad. Very slow, but quicker than redoing it completely. However, if I am forced to redo it, I will try this.

    Word formatting problem

    This is somewhat odd. I have a .CSV file that was sent to me by a vendor and before I can pull it into Excel and upload it into SQL using a DTS package, I have to change the file location references (there are about 12,671 of them) from href='XXXXXX/article.name' to...

    Query language?

    I am trying to figure out where the error in the routine is, and I suspect it is that subroutine, but I am uncertain and wanted other eyes to look at it.

    Query language?

    I have someone who attempts to run a query (from the form) on a grid # (3260230), but he is getting a "sub or function not defined" error in the following code: "Private Sub Button132_Click() On Error GoTo Err_Button132_Click Call QueryByForm Exit_Button132_Click: Exit Sub...

    Outlook losing settings

    Does anyone know what error would cause Outlook XP to not be able to save its settings and constantly revert back to default? I have rebuilt the Outlook profile, the XP profile and also checked against an application we have that is causing problems. None of them resolve the issue. After a...

    Outlook forwarded messages

    I figured this out, for Outlook XP/2003: Tools, Options, Preferences, E-mail Options, Advanced E-mail Options, 2nd box down, uncheck it and Outlook will save all forwarded messages to the Sent Items folder.

    Outlook forwarded messages

    Does Outlook save forwarded messages in the folder they are forwarded from by default? Is there a way to change it? Thanks in advance, Chris

    Access Path error

    Does anyone recognize this error? I have been looking it up on MS Knowledgebase with no luck and the person is connected correctly to the server and everything is spelled correctly. Ideas? 'path' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are...

    Making form fileds empty

    DOH! I wasn't in Form. That was it. THANK YOU!!!!

    Making form fileds empty

    Supposedly, that property is in there, but I just don't see it. Very odd.

    Making form fileds empty

    I cannot find that Form property. This is a 2002/2003 db, btw. i have looked through half a dozen forms to no avail. I know the property you mean and it is also in my reference materials. But it does not appear in the properties list, either. Ugh.

    Making form fileds empty

    I must be doing something wrong. I cannot make my form fields default to empty so that someone entering data into the forms for the first time has empty fields to work with. I was trying to use the Input Mask, but maybe that is not right. Suggestions? Thanks, Chris

    Printing page 1 of multiple documents in Word

    Does anyone know if you can print Page 1 of all the documents in a particular directory? I suspect you could do it with VBA, but I know of no native way to do it from the GUI. Thanks, Redtwister

    Using VBA to alter Template settings for many files

    Well, the problem is that we have to go through several thousand files. The files in question do hang when you try to open them (this is simply a fact), and the reason they hang is that they are searching for a non-existent template over the network (the server was decommissioned and the...

    Using VBA to alter Template settings for many files

    Thanks. I understand what you meant now. It was a little terminological difficulty. I am NOT a programmer, so when you say 'open a file' I was thinking of something different. And yes, the VALUE is what is incorrect, as it points to a server that no longer exists where the template used to...

    Using VBA to alter Template settings for many files

    Thanks Fumei. More questions: 1. When you say 'open the documents', you mean that my script will have to go and open each document as it does its work? What if the document takes several minutes to open because of the improper template path? This was my concern from the beginning that the...

    Using VBA to alter Template settings for many files

    I didn't really ask, but is VBA the right tool for this? Should I be using VBScript instead? i am a real newb with VBA and have had this problem thrown into my lap, and I figured that VBA was the right tool to go out and check thousands of Word files for the proper Template path and then...
