    get Reader when I try to open Pro 8

    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

    get Reader when I try to open Pro 8

    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...

    time/date stamp? version saving? problems

    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...

    changing XP boot sequence/programs

    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...

    ? Choose the level of detail to display in the Document Map

    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...

    ? Choose the level of detail to display in the Document Map

    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...

    ? Choose the level of detail to display in the Document Map

    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...

    margins setting overrides desired margins; normal.dot question

    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...

    Hindi diacritics: substitute font for southasiantimes?

    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...

    Word styles &quot;repairs&quot;

    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...

    Word styles &quot;repairs&quot;

    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...

    Word styles &quot;repairs&quot;

    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...

    Word styles &quot;repairs&quot;

    sometimes, but not always, when I save Word documents, I get a message that offers three buttons as options. The message says something to along the lines of "Word has detected an error in your style" and do you want Word to make repairs? is the default button. I suspect this is a styles...

    Hi, thanks for the ideas. Garebo, you asked if I had other issues, and yes, I do. I sent this to the XP forum. I hadn't been able to open my email when I sent it, so I didn't see your posts until after. Sorry for the double posting. Here's what I sent that describes some other issues and...

    &quot;hole&quot; in LCD display

    A year ago, I got stuck with an "out-of-the-box" HP Pavilion A408x, which has, for the most part, been reliable. Recently I've been having quite a bit of trouble--I've updated NAV and scanned (nothing found), I've run detect and repair on my Office XP, and I've muttered incantations. My most...
