HollerinPot — Wed, 01 Dec 2010 11:54:03 +0000

Both these options appear in the ‘My Contacts’ menu but there is nothing under ‘Contacts in Personal Folders’ when selected – all my contact info being under ‘Contacts’ However it seems that Word 2007 wants to create a Mail Merge using ‘Contacts in Personal Folder’ and doesn’t recognise the info under ‘Contacts’. Can anyone please explain what is happening and how to rectify this to a novice?

Auto Populate Word 2007/2010 Form Fields

OfficeMaster — Tue, 12 Oct 2010 16:18:20 +0000

I am creating a Word forms document using Legacy Fields. In the past versions [Before 2007] I was able to use the Calculate field type and and create a calculation that refers to the bookmark name of the field i want to automatically be inserted in the another form field. The ASK and REF commands does not work because the document is protected for entering data into the other form fields. Is this capability still available, and if so, how do I enter the formula when using the Calculated field type.

Word 2007 page colour fill gradient, printing probs (HP Photosmart C5380)

Notmyrealname — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 12:27:06 +0000

Hiya, having problems printing a Word 2007 doc with a page colour fill gradient added. If I chose Horizontal, Vertical or Diagonal fill gradient it prints with stripes, rather than with a graceful gradient. If I chose From Corner it prints with a tiled effect. It does this with one, two or three colours, and with the preset gradients. The page doesn’t look striped or tiled on screen or in print preview. I am printing from my HP PC to my HP Photosmart C5380 printer. I am using Windows XP. Other peeps, not with HPs, have also asked about this striped/tiled problem on other help web pages without a successful answer. I’m hoping someone can help here please if poss. Thank you

Setting up a field to store .png file in Access 2007 Database so that it can be merged with Word document

TDrotos — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 21:15:11 +0000

I have an Access 2007 database that includes a company logo( .png file) field. I have set up the field as an “attachement” data type and I have also tried OLE data type. The problem is that when I use the database as part of a merge with a Word document, the logo does not display. Only the name of the file or a string of characters displays. How do I get the .png file (logo) to display?

Email template alterations: I don’t want to print headers and footers

Mcpw — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 08:18:45 +0000

I have an office where I sometimes wish to send a word document via email and sometimes via the post. My question is can I set a word document up with headers and footers (with my logo etc on) so that I can email a professional looking copy, yet at the same time if I wish to print a copy (onto pre-printed) letterhead I can print the document excluding the header and footer. Is there a quick way of doing this?
