BI Publisher Desktop Windows 7 Office 2007 Install

Hey All,
Having some issues with install the BI Publisher Desktop 10.1.3.4.1 on Windows 7 32 bit / Office 2007 setup.
Keep getting error, "Please close MS Word and try again".
Well it is certainly closed, and I have also tried a clean reboot, just to eliminate any lingering processes.
So basically, should this Windows 7 install work?
Didn't see it named on the certifications list, but all of the other Vista 32 bit installs I have tried have been successful.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
Hayden

Before you start BIP Desktop installation, you have to close all
MS-Office Applications (MS-Word, MS-Outlook, etc) and Internet
Explorer too.
After installation is complete run Word 7 and go to->Adds-In
->Oracle BI publisher.
Regards,
Andy

Windows 7, Office 2007, Adobe Acrobat cs3 - will not create a .pdf from word doc

I can not create a .PDF file from a 2007 word.docx file. I have tried a few different word docs, including a document I created just to trouble shoot with.
I tried opening the .docx in Word and then going PRINT - ADOBE PDF. When I do this 'nothing' happens. No dialogue box opens, nada.
When I open Adobe Acrobat and try to 'create' I get this error: "Adobe acrobat could not open"name.docx" because it is not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged...".

Something to check.

See what dot version is in place.
Support for Office 2007 applications began with Acrobat 8.1; so, you want that or better.

Windows 7 + Office 2007 & 2010 VERY slow saving files to on 2008 R2 files shares

OK I have litterally tried everthing in every forum there is to resolve this. It is only happening on our Win 7 workstations that are running Office 2007 or 2010. Our file shares are on a 2008 R2 server. Opening and saving files on the shares using
Office is very slow. I have tried updates and server and workstations are 100% up to date. The server is only running as a file share server. Nothing else on it. We have completely set up new PC's to test with clean Win 7 installs and nothing else except Office.
Nothing else on the network is slow at all. I have tried all the hotfixes in the world that could relate to this from many hours of research into possible causes. I have done the EnableShellDataCaching fix, the SMB 2 disable fix, the windows search/indexer
fix, the pdfmaker fix, the lookup wizard add-in fix, the go to the newest firmware on the cisco switch fix, update workstation nic driver fix, the Trusted Locations in Excel fix, and about a dozen other fixes. NOTHING WORKS! This has brought our Win 7
and Office 2007/2010 users to a halt in their ability to do their jobs. Our company is suffering badly. And did I mention that our IT dept is getting a lot of heat and criticism about it. FYI we are running an IBM E5450 with dual multi-thread
multi-core(8) 3 Mhz Intel Xeon processors with 2008 R2 64-bit, 12 GB ram, and the server is using litterally no resources. Network connected is Gigabit. This has to be a Microsoft issue with 2008/Win 7/Office 2007&2010. This has become a nightmare for
out IT dept and has consumed weeks of our time when we need to be working on other projects. Can anyone solve this. Microsoft: Please release a REAL fix for this that we can run on the server or push via GPO to the workstations.

Hi,

Office 2010 components, such as Word 2010?
At this time, I suggest trying to start Excel in safe mode. Then, open the Excel file or create a new Excel file, and save the file to the network again.
Start the Excel program in safe mode
1.       Click Start, point to All Programs, and then point to Microsoft Office.
2.        Press and hold the CTRL key, and then click the Microsoft Excel.
If the problem does not occur in the safe mode, this issue might be related to some third-party add-ins in the Excel program, we can try to disable them. Normally, you could do the following to disable the conflict add-ins in your Excel program:
Disable add-ins
Click File menu, click Options > Add-in, click Go button in the Manage: Com-in Add.
Check if there are any add-ins, clear the checkbox to disable them.
Close the Office program and restart it.
Add one check back each time to the list of Add-In, restart the Office program, and repeat the above procedure. Once the issue reappears again, we can determine which add-in causes this problem and then disable it.
Please take your time to try the suggestions and let me know the results at your earliest convenience. If anything is unclear or if there is anything I can do for you, please feel free to let me know.
====
Is the performance also slow when you trying to save the Excel file to other network path?
At this time, we can also try to test this issue in the clean boot mode.
Test in Clean boot Mode
===============
Let’s disable all startup items and third party services when booting. This method will help us determine if this issue is caused by a loading program or service. Please perform the following steps:
1.       Click the Start Button type "msconfig" (without quotation marks) in the Start Search box, and then press Enter.
Note: If prompted, please click Continue on the User Account Control (UAC) window.
2.        Click the "Services" tab, check the "Hide All Microsoft Services" box and click "Disable All" (if it is not gray).
3.       Click the "Startup" tab, click "Disable All" and click "OK".
Then, restart the computer. When the "System Configuration Utility" window appears, please check the "Don't show this message or launch the System Configuration Utility when Windows starts" box and click OK.
Note: Temporarily disabling the Startup Group only prevents the startup programs from loading at startup. This should not affect the system or other programs. We may still manually run these programs later.
What’s the result now?
How to return from the Clean Boot state
After the troubleshooting, we can return from the clean boot state:
1.       Click the Start Button type "msconfig" (without quotation marks) in the Start Search box, and then press Enter.
Note: If prompted, please click Continue on the User Account Control (UAC) window.
2.       On the "General" tab, click "Normal Startup - load all device drivers and services".
3.       Click OK. Click Restart when you are prompted to restart your computer.

How to open .snp files with Microsoft Office 2007 installed? It works with MS Office 2003 but not with MS Office 2007!

I have MS Office Pro Plus 2007 installed on my computer. I also have MS Office 2003 installed on another computer. Snapshot viewer is installed on both. My work snapshot files works with MS Office Access 2003 but not recognized by MS Office Access 2007. It would not allow me to save them either! Is it a problem with FireFox (3.6.8)? However, I do not have problem opening them up using IE7/8 on both computers. Any ideas? Thanks.

Are you clicking a download link from an email message on an OWA or webmail site? Do you get the open/save dialog for the .snp files? In that case, you should be able to associate them with the Snapshot viewer. If Firefox does not remember this and you have to do it each time, it usually indicates that the server is not sending a specific content type, just the generic "this is some binary content" content type.

Can Contribute Keys be sent with Office 2007 installed?

Maybe Contribute 4 does not work with Office 2007 beta TR? I
have Outlook set as my emailer. Clicking on send key just hangs
Contribute. So is the workaround just to save the key to disk and
send via email attachement? Is that all that function does anyway:
mailto: with attachement?

Excel colors stopped working after MS Office 2007 installed

We use OLE services to create excel spreadsheets and color some of the data cells. For this we use class: I_OI_SPREADSHEET, method: SET_COLOR. The colors are set via an integer parameter but stopped working after we upgraded to MS Office 2007. Now all the cells are colorless. I've searched google, SDN and OSS Notes but can't find any explanation. Does anyone have any ideas on this?

Hi,
According to your description, it seems that you are confusing mailuser with mailbox.
Could you get anything when running following command?
Get-MailUser
Get-MailContact
mail user is a user outside your exchange organization,it just has active directory logon credentials and can access resources.
The following artcile for your reference:
Mail user:
A mail-enabled Active Directory user that represents a user outside the Exchange organization. Each mail user has an external email address. All messages sent to the mail user are routed to this external email address.
A mail user is similar to a mail contact, except that a mail user has Active Directory logon credentials and can access resources.
User Mailbox:
A mailbox that's assigned to an individual user in your Exchange organization. It typically contains messages, calendar items, contacts, tasks, documents, and other important business data.
Hope this helps!
Thanks.

Palm Desktop 6.2.2 / Edit menu does not have Send To option (MS Vista Premium SP1 32 bit with MS Office 2007)

I have a Palm Zire 31 and had been running the Palm Desktop 4.1.4 on a Windows XP Home SP3 computer for years.
I recently purchased a new computer with Windows Vista Premium SP1 (32 bit) and installed the Palm Desktop 4.1.4. Everything seemed to work fine (including the Edit -> Send To Word, which is MS Office 2007 Word) until I tried to install software on my Zire with Quick Install. That is when I found out that I needed to upgrade to Palm Desktop 6.2.2.
I downloaded and installed Palm Desktop 6.2.2. There are a few glitches that I need to address. But the most important one to me is that the Send To command does not appear in the Edit menu (it should, according to the Palm Desktop help.)
Does anyone know how I can get that feature (Send To Word) to work (short of reinstalling MS Office)?
Thanks in advance.
Stan
Post relates to: Zire 31

Hello Stan and welcome to the Palm forums.
Palm Desktop 6.x was developed by ACCESS, the company that owns the source code to the Palm OS, Palm Desktop, and HotSync Manager. When they released Palm Desktop 6.x, some of the features of the older Palm Desktop 4.x where not included. I don't have Office 2007 installed on my computer, but the Send To comand could be one of those features that didn't make the jump from Palm Desktop 4.x to 6.x

Custom Office desktop shortcuts deployed during change install show white

I have created a custom MS Office 2013 .MSP file with the Office Customization Tool using the setup.exe /adminfile. Our initial push was just with Outlook 2013. This created a shortcut on the Desktop. This worked great.
I now want to change the customizations and deploy the rest of Office. I do this using the msiexec.exe /p new.MSP command with a new MSP file created adding the other Office applications. This works as expected too except the newly added desktop icons show
a blank piece of paper as an icon. The other shortcuts in the start menu folder work fine and these blank icon shortcuts on the desktop work fine.
If I try to modify the shorcut icons on the desktop the "Open file location" and "Change icon" buttons are grayed out.
If I rip out Office 2013 and then do a full install with a new .MSP file using the setup.exe /adminfile this correctly adds the desktop shortcuts with correct icons. I'd rather not uninstall and then reinstall.
It seems the problem is with the msiexec install method.
I have seen this post from a similar problem in Office 2007 install here:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/8849cc08-cada-417c-9c91-c71610ec62cf/repair-custom-office-shortcuts-deployed-during-install-with-msp-file?forum=officeitproprevious
The registry fix did not apply as there were no registry subkeys named with a number from zero to 100 in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers.
Any other options to resolve this?
Thanks,
Bob

Make sure that Office icon are still located on the path %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office 15\Root\VFS\Windows\Installer\{90150000-000F-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}
Please test to create a new shortcut from the program's exe file, then see if you may be able to change the icon of this new shortcut from the properties
Let me know the result above. Thanks.
By the way, some of 3rd party utility on the market may enable greyed out controls, I don't make the introductions here.

Office 365 installed, can't choose Word 2007 as the default program for docx and doc files

I have a client who just installed Office 365 on his Windows 7 PC. He still has Office 2007 installed. He's struggling with the changes in Word 2013 and wants me to uninstall Office 365. I thought I'd just set the default program association for .docx and
.doc programs to Word 2007 but that doesn't seem possible. I can choose Default Programs, Associate a file type etc., and find the .docx extension. The current default is Word (desktop). I highlight the .docx extension and choose Change Program. The older
version of Word isn't listed so I click Browse and find Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\winword.exe. Click OK, OK, OK, etc, but .docx files still open in Word 2013. The Default Program applet evidently sees all versions of Word as the same and refuses
to change the association. How do I accomplish this ridiculously simple task?

Fixed. Used a great little app from NirSoft called
FileTypesMan. The built-in Windows utilities are getting worse by leaps and bounds.

Switching to MAC from Windows: How to open files in Office 2007 VMFusion?

Dear all,
Intro:
I switched to MAC and now cannot find the solution to a simple problem.
First: I need an Office 2007 PowerPoint FULLY compatible solution.
What did not work: IWork, NeoOffice, Office 2008 (this is not fully compatible with Office 2007 Files)
I also had problems with: Parallels (not stable, too many hangups), codeweaver crossover (office files do not even open sometimes, good idea but not suitable for serious office jobs)
Now I have VMWare Fusion with WinXP and Office 2007 as this seems to be the only truly stable and best solution to run Office 2007 on Mac
Question:
How to open files in Office 2007 on MAC VMWare Fusion easily?
It would be nice to spotlight the file and click and it opens in powerpoint or excel or word 2007 in Virtual Machine.
The only known solution to me is to use the Windows explorer to navigate to the file and then open it from Fusion WinXP. This is very cumbersome and honestly makes me think of getting back to a windows machine as I work with office frequently.
Thank you for your help.

Thank you for the quick reply.
Yes, I have Office 2007 installed. The problem is that to open files in Fusion virtual machine I have to use the windows explorer and navigate to the file to open it. Now that I have the mac I want to use the good feature of spotlight. So when I search and find the file I want to open I cannot click on it on the mac (or in finder) but I have to switch back to the virtual machine, locate the file again and open it from windows.
You might think - ok, why not skip the first step of using spotlight, and look up the file in windows explorer before anything else?
Correct, but I know from parallels that there is a file association possible to directly access the file in office 2007.
This does not seem possible in Fusion - So the question is whether there is a possibility on the mac to associate the file and to click on it in finder/spotlight and the office 2007 application in fusion opens the file. So far I could not find anything.
Thanks

Installatn of LO SP3 build with office 2007 gives office 2003 kb907417 err

Hi.
Xcelsius and Office 2010
This is further to the above link.
We have our desktop machines wherein we have tried to install Xcelsius 2008 SP3 build and also Live Office SP3 build - with Office 2007 and it works fine. Though the operating system on desktop is Windows 7
However we are testing on moving our desktop machines to the cloud computing.
While we tried installing xcelsius 2008 sp3 build with office 2007 installed locally on thin client of vmware, xcelsius 2008 got installed. on Windows 7
However Live office sp3 build is not getting installed.
Installatn of LO SP3 build with office 2007 gives office 2003 kb907417 error - on windows 7 machine.
Which is ridiculous.
This was an old error of 3.1 which was required for .net 2 framework and the microsoft patch related to office 2003. Which cannot be run on windows 7 ???
But still that error comes up ? Error says :
Update for office 2003(KB 907417) not detected on this machine. Please install the update and re-run the setup.
Can anyone advise what is the way to have this error not crop up on LO installation of SP3 build with office 2007.
So that we could complete this installations.
I do not know what exactly is the related patch to be installed on windows 7, so that we do not get this error, on a vm client.
Thanks for the help in advance.

JUST FOR INFO :
We sorted the problem finally.
Deleting the entries in registry of office 14.0
HKLM\SW\MS\Office\14.0 - we deleted this entire entry.
Thereafter re-installed office 2007 and installed xcelsius and LO again.
This seems to work on the VM ware clients.

Microsoft office 2007 on macbook

hi i just got a macbook and unfamiliar with macs. i was wondering if i can put office 07 on my macbook.? and if so how

You have several choices:
1. Install Office 2004 for Mac or Office 2008 For Mac on Leopard.
2. You can use software such as Parallels and install a Virtual Machine for Windows and then Install Office 2007 for Windows.
3. You can use Boot Camp to parition your Macbook's HD and install Windows (Please read instructions thoroughly for this) on its own partition so it runs natively and then install Microsoft Office 2007 for Windows on it.
For option 1 you will need to buy Office for Mac (either 2004 or 2008).
For option 2, you will need to purchase Parallels, Windows and Office 2007 for Windows.
For Option 3, you will need to purchase Windows and Office 2007 for Windows.

BPC and Office 2007 documents

Is the following statement true:
"Documents created / used by BPC should be in the Excel 97-2003 format"
I am on the SAP Basis team and new to BPC. We are in the development phase of implmenting BPC 7.5 Patch 6 on Netweaver .
The desktops are running Office 2007 and Office 2010.
I resolved an issue last week for a user that was trying to open a template that was saved in an Excel 2007 format and it would not open. I have another user telling me that his BPC locks up whenever he attempts to open an Excel 2007 "Marco Enabled Workbook" - this is a *.XLSM file. I have two other users telling me that their BPC session "freeze" and need to check with them as to what exactly they are doing when this happens.
Should I be telling my end users that BPC only supports Excel 97-2003 documents and that they should be saving their BPC related documents in this older format?
Thanks in advance for your input

Hi,
As Sanjeev said , that SAP BPC 7.5 supports MS office 2007 and 2010.
one scenario is that If you save the file in MS office 2003 and then try to open in MS office 2007 it will give that kind of error.
Another scenario is that once they installed BPC client and then they upgraded the MS Office to 2007 or 2010 it will give problem.
To solve this :
Re-install MS office first then install BPC Client.
Hope this will help youu2026
Thanks,
Devi
