Making flash cards
I am going to Med. School and need to make my own flash cards. I have Word 2003. Does anyone know how to do this? For example, "ab-" on the front and "away from" on the back. I'm sure that I am not the first person to try this. I really don't want to hand write a couple of hundred of these things. Thank You. Squalo69@att.net ...

cannot click on check box
Dear All I have two pages of an evaluation report with check boxes to mark. I went thro the forums and managed to use onscreen check boxes. Check boxes in page1 works fine. But the problem I am facing is the check boxes do not work in page 2 but the text boxes work in page 2. Actually I changed all the forms to make it user friendly and now in a mess. :( Since I am in a hurry t...

How to show full page even if it contains on the bottom only blank lines?
When I open a Word doc I got recently then the pages are cut at the bottom after the last filled line. Currently I enable "View->Print Layout" So if on a page theoretically fit 40 lines and it is filled only with 30 then the bottom border comes right after the line no 30. How do I force Word to show the full page even if the lower part is empty? Keith ...

Word 2003 Open files?
In word 2003, suddenly the open files dialog box has shrunk to one quarter screen size, and it used to be full screen size. How do I get it back? Rebooting and going in and out of Word does not help. Where is the setting for this box? And is there a way to get the list files dialog to come up every time with the newest files always at the top and with "details" as the template mode? ...

Word 2003 footer pane contains ghost words
I was just cleaning up a document and found an email address I needed to change, but it only showed up in the "Footer Pane". The footer of the page in question did not match what content in the footer pane. Had I printed the file, the old email address likely would not have been included, but I am baffled how content might hide somewhere connected to a footer and only show up when a search f...

Strange characters when converting from Word 2007 to Word 2003
Hi everyone, I have a number of documents created and saved in Word 2007 (docx), and I need to open and work with them in Word 2003. A number of weird things seem to happen in conversion: left double quotes convert to an uppercase A right double quotes convert to an at symbol (@) apostrophes convert to an equal sign (=) the section symbol converts to an apostrophe Some of these docum...

Two different spaces
I have a doc with a table where the first paragraph is in date form like: 2008 10 11 z 1730 for 1800 B. By clicking on Show/Hide I can see that there are two different kinds of spaces: 2008*10*11 z&1730*for*1800&B, where * represents a space shown by a small black dot and & a space shown by a small superscripted circle. In sorting a * space comes before a & space. This can mess up the needed ...

Changing "Normal.dot"
Hi, I'm completely new to Word 2007 and hating every minute of it. I am used to 2003, but even there I have it - had it - adjusted to my layout, my sight, my way of working. My question is: How do I adjust what used to be "Normal.dot" and save the changes so that all my new documents arrive already the way I want them instead of this hopeless mess that MS seems to think is what we ...

Showing the text??? (word 2003 or 2007)

Is there the same function in word as this function in excel? For example> In the first page there is the first page header. In the body there are patient's name, date of birth, and address.

I screwed up - can I undo the damage?
OK, so first off, this might be slightly unbelievable - I myself might not believe it if I read it in a newsgroup. Computer I'm at uni. and in my BCIS degree classes, there is a course on Computer Security. For this course we look at security issues and learn about all types of network attacks. We have a dedicated computer Lab with an isolated network to work on. One of the things we loo...

I have the "Go To" function in some small macros. (Control-G.) I'm having a problem because it moves the cursor to the place I want but leaves the screen displayed where it was before.

Thanks in advance. ...

Insert JPEG into Word 2007
I have our company logo in JPEG format and have inserted it into a Word 2007 document. It is visible in Print Preview, it does print, but when I am in Print Layout view, all I see is a border around the "picture". The border does not print. I thought it may be an issue such as "Order" which was found on the Draw menu in Word 2002/2003. I can not find commands to even begin to attempt t...
