Printing Newsletter in Publisher 2003
I have Publisher 2003 on an XP OS and trying to print a newsletter with 2 pages per tabloid size paper. I was able to do this OK with Publisher 2000. It seems that the 2003 version does not have a "Book fold" option for the layout. The Print Preview looks OK and shows page 6 and 1 for the layout. For layout I choose "Booklet". What I get is page 6 and 1 on 1/2 of the 11x17 paper. Help! Gary Gary are you printing to a laser printer??? If you are, you are running out of printer memory.

excel, worksheet, set print area, position selection on printed pa
Office 07, Excel. Print area is set, print preview displays selection, always on far left of page. I want to choose the position on the page, eg centered or right aligned etc. Help please.

Error saving a Shared Workbook
I have a user using a shared workbook and gets an error everytime she does this ONE specific change. She deletes a line and then saves and gets a message that says, "EXCEL.exe has generated errors and will be shutdown by Windows... blah blah blah". If she makes anyother type of changes it saves just fine. I also had another user do the SAME change and that person also got that error message. When the file is changed to "Not Shared" then the line is deleted it saves fine also. The problem is obviously with the file itself and that is shared out. can anybody ...

Locking cell color while allowing data changes in cell
In excel 2000, I created an attendance worksheet for my classes.(Alphabetized names down left vertical column. Dates across top of horizontal row.) I added a different color to all cells in every other row to make for easier reading of each student's name and absences. Every other row stays with a white background. My question: I wondered if it was possible to lock row colors while allowing data to change on top of them. If a new student is added to my class in alphabetical order, the alternating color pattern is often lost. It is a pain to rechange row and cell colors. Any shortcut ...

How refresh imported data automatically?
In Excel, I've imported data into a worksheet. I know I can click Data.. Refresh Data to requery the source, but I want to be able to do it in a more automated way. Is there some sort of macro I can write when opened or something? Thanks, Ron Ron, Select the cell the data starts in, select Data/Import External Data/Data Range Properties Check the box "Refresh on file open" and anything else that needs checking off... Other than that, you could record a new Macro that selects your cell, refreshes data, and assign the macro to a keystroke, or even an icon. Beege ...

Question About Missing Data
So, this is probably really easy, but I just want to ask and see if I may be missing something here. Some data on vendor numbers changed. Let’s say IBM used to have a vendor number 12345 and now it’s vendor number is 56789. I can identify IBM as IBM, but I really want to use the number, not the name. Should I set up a table that ties the numbers together, so that Access knows 12345 = 56789? Or, should I do some kind of Update Query and change all incidences of 12345 to be 56789? Or, is there some other, method, like a ‘best practices for missing data’? Thanks! Ryan--- ...

Outlook Data Files #4
I've done some reading but I'm still confused about the use of Office Outlook Personal Folders File (.pst) versus Outlook 97-2002 Personal Folders File (.pst). I understand the basic "Office Outlook Personal Folders File (.pst) to create a new Outlook 2003 .pst file. Click Outlook 97-2002 Personal Folders File (.pst) to create a new Outlook .pst file that is compatible with earlier versions of Outlook." When we have upgraded to Outlook 2003 or set up a new PC with Outlook 2003, when adding PST's you can chosse either of the two file type options and browse to chos...

New Named Range Created Each Time Data Imported into Excel via Macro
I have noticed that each time I import data into an Excel spreadsheet via a macro, a new named range (for the same range) is created. This does not pose a problem, but after a while, I'll have a huge number of named ranges that will never be used. Why does Excel name the range and how can I stop this? I noticed in the recorded macro, there was a line .Name = "drd_5". I commented this out to see what would happen, but it just renamed the range "ExternalData_5". The next one was "ExternalData_6", etc. Thanks, Carroll Rinehart You could refresh with differen...

Find what control is using a data item
I built a form, then deleted 2 columns from the source table and now I get a popup asking for the value of those 2 columns. The problem is, I don't use those columns so I need to find what on the form is refferencing the deleted columns. I have looked at the control drop down on the properties window and the tab order window and can't find a control with either one of the missing column names. How do I determine what is trying to refference the deleted columns? I found the problem, the column was still referenced in the underlying query that fed the form. "MeSteve"...

Events template not saving entries
I am attempting to build an events database using the Events template in Access 2007. I have made no modifications to the template. It is not saving the information I add into the Event List table.

Pivot Tables filtering data
Using Excel, I have query(using an ODBC connection) of all customer order detail over a two year time period. The detail for each customer is different in that some customer have multiple orders, and the amount of individual sales parts they order may be 1 or 100. My query gathers detail by order line item. We were able to provide management with comparative sales data. Now that we have shown this report to management, they want three things that I'm unsure how to provide. 1) Customers that are new in the current year2) customers that had orders in both years, 3)customers that ...

How do I plot data on a map in excel
I am using Microsoft office standard 2003. I wish to plot information on a local area map within the Clapham Park area, SW2. Hi, There is no built-in functionality for this. You would need a dedicated Mapping program with UK based information. You can however simulate the chart. If you have an image of the map you could use that as the plotarea pattern. You could then use a xy-scatter graph to plot information over the map. You would have to determine the coordinates by trial and error.
