Skipping Numbers in Styles and Numbering

I have setup a ton of styles and associated numbering methods for a lengthy legal document. I was wondering if there was a way of skipping numbers. For Example: Section.Subsection: 7.04 7.08 7.12 etc. We have a single level of a lengthy numbering format that needs this to occur. Is it possible?

Letterhead Printing

Hi, My company has a regular word document template called letterhead.dotx. We use it for most documents. We send these documents to several other companies, dozens in fact. The largest company is having a problem printing these documents. When they print the document, from any station, it forces the print on THEIR company letterhead. I have spoken with their IT support, who claims it is the documents problem, something about tags or embedded pre-print commands. I did not create this template, nor can I contact the person who did. I am not familiar with creating templates

Page Numbering within Sections

I have a Word template document with 3 sections: The first section contains one page which is not numbered. The second section contains 3 pages which are automatically numbered via inserting Page x of y and then converting y to a SECTIONPAGES field resulting in Pages 1 of 4, 2 of 4, and 3 of 4. So all is good up to this point. However, the 4th and final page is in landscape format and thus becomes the third section, but is being numbered 4 of 1 even though the 1 is a SECTIONPAGES field and the section is linked to previous and is listed as "same as previous". So the pag

Need white text headings (1 word) highlighted black. There's a cat

I have a two-part question surrounding TOC and text formatting. THE SCENARIO: I'm trying to create a TOC based on section headings in a manual, but the section headings are actually textboxes rather than text within the document body. To make the TOC process easier, I have converted the document to use Syles. To create a TOC, I think the section headings need to be in Header Style #1. THE PROBLEM: I want the section headings formatted a certain way AND I want the section heading to appear on every page (so you can open the workbook to any page and know what section you are i

Can the settings within a margin type be adjusted? How?

For my own reasons, I would like to adjust the side margins in the "Wide" margin type from 2" to 2.5" or 2.75". Is this possible? I assume it is defined in some system file which could be CAREFULLY edited and re-saved.

Word 2003 > 2007 Table issues - vertical text and tables too wide

In the document where I removed the extra paragraph marks, I now have many tables with vertical text. If I make a column wider, it moves horizontal, but then I have a lot of extra space and it takes away from the previous columns width. I don't see if forcing a cell size. Also, I have many tables which are wider than the size of the page. Is there a way to fix that. Since I have large documents with the above issues, is there a way to globall fix it? Thanks!

Continuing Page Numbers with Section Breaks

I'm having a bit of a problem with Word 97, in particular page numbering. I have a document which someone else has setup and I have been working on, and it has several different sections, which means the page numbering facility is not working as it should. There are a few landscape sections which I believe is responsible for the problem, however I can't seem to find any way around getting continuing page numbering. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated. Just a small note, while I may be reasonably computer literate I am not a big fan of Word, so I may need

Continue page numbering from previous document while Indexing

Hi! I have a very long document that I have split into several smaller documents to work on and consequently, I have set the page numbering for each subsequent according to the last page of the previous document: "Document #1: Page 1-500" "Document #2: Page 501-750" "Document #3: Page 751-900" However, when I do Indexing in Document #2, regardless of the page number I have set up, it reverts to Page 1 when updating the Index and resets the entire page numbering in that document. How can I 'force' the Indexing to recognize the subsequent page numbering? I suppose it would be the

How to insert field code in Word 2007?

Prior versions allowed insertion of fields via menu. Desired capability is to insert 'number of pages' in footer. As in 1 of N, where N is number of pages in document. 2003 and prior allowed this as a footer command or a field insert. Now the only option is to scroll through all the sample footers, pick the lonely example that includes the desired 1 of N, change the format, add the other footer information and finally done. Or, open an existing document and copy the footer and paste it. As with many "features" of 2007, deleting the field insert is not an improvement.

How do I reformat existing line lengths in Word 2007?

Word 2007 - Bibliography, citations and hybrids of the two in footnotes

Hello again, I'm hoping someone may be able to tell me how to include a bibliography "entry" (not the entire bibliography) in a footnote. With the kind of report I'm putting together I would like my readers to be able to view the source immediately on the page in the footnote without having to flip to the "works cited" at the end. I'm sure there is a way to do this but I can't figure it out and I haven't identified a switch in either the citation or bibliography fields that may allow this to happen.

"Cementing" a Text Box so it behaves like a Header or Footer

Good morning. Our letterhead lists our products along the left margin, and I want to "cement" the text box containing them so that when people begin typing the contents of the letter, the text box won't move down. My left margin is set to 0.6", and the body of the letter should begin 2.1" in from that margin. On the Text Box Properties Layout tab, I've tried every wrapping method, but nothing works, and I don't know what else to try. It would be great if there were a header-type feature that leaves things in the left (or right) margin without being affected by text editin

TOC Formating - TOC Styles aren't actually changing the font

Am I doing something wrong? I'm trying to change the font of my automatic TOC. I have modified the TOC styles (TOC1, TOC2, TOC3, etc.)--but everything I modify actually changes except the font. I've tried changing the font in the TOC dialog box and by going through the styles. Also, I have set the styles to be based on nothing; however, they are remaining in the font of my body instead of my headings. The TOC style descriptions read: "font: (default) Book Antiqua".

Pulling my hair out over figures, captions, frames, and floating/in-line distinctions

This is more a software usability question than it is a developer question...sorry for my naivety but I've been trying to figure out a solution to this for the last 6 hours. Document in Word 2007 with many images, tables and charts. At least a 1/3 of the figs/tbls are small and therefore need to "float" so that text can be wrapped around them. Every fig/tbl needs a caption, a source, and some may have additional information attached to them. It's a long document so there is a TOC, but the caption is the only part that needs to make it to the TOC. I would like the figs/tbls to be on the

Hi folks. Has anyone seen this problem or know a solution? 1. Hit F9. 2. Type the following field code: { TIME \@ "hh:mm:ss" } 3.

How do I print smaller sized layout centered on letter size paper?

I reformatted my document to size it like a paperback book. When I print it on letter size paper, it prints out at the top of the page with a lot of space below. Interestingly, it prints centered horizontally on the letter size paper, probably because it thinks I'm feeding smaller-narrower custom size paper into the printer, drawn centered from the paper tray. I want this paperback book sized document to print centered on letter size paper, both vertically and horizontally, without first reformatting it to letter size with larger margins. Is this possible? Thanks.

Office 2007 changes

I've been using Office since 1994 and most would consider me a power user. I upgraded to 2007 in December. At first I was put-off and bewildered by all the changes to the user interface, but I decided to give time to "sink in." After spending 5 hours today trying to get my Word styles templates the way I wanted them (without success), I'm no longer bewildered; I'm mad, frustrated and confused. I can't identify anything about the new interface that is an improvement over 2003. Maybe for the casual user that doesn't try to do anything complex, this interface is OK. What was broken
