Can't delete a document in Word 2007

I have Windows 7 and Office 2007. I want to delete a 6 page document which I created.
When I attempt this action, I get the following message:
"This action can't be completed because the file is open in MS Office Word."
I am quite sure the file is not open. I can delete other documents.

Check if any other application is running and is using this doc.
check task manager
check opened sessions /files
Work around.
Modify the document and save it as another name for example file1 save as file2, rename file1 and delete it.

Insert PDF document into Word 2007 document

I am trying to insert a PDF document into a Word 2007 document and only the first page inserts. I am desperate to finish this project. Thanks for any help.

A lot depends on what your end goal is in using the PDF. Without some concept of where you are headed, there is not much more that can be said, other than list a bunch of other ways to interact with WORD.
Yeah, I agree with Bill@VT. More precisely say, if you just need to quote the pdf content, you can just use "snagit" screenshot program to capture desired part of the pdf file as an image then paste into your word document. Usually in this way, there will not any resize or data loss of reuse pdf content into word file.
And of course, if you want to further change or edit the pdf content or seamlessly <link removed>, you just try to convert pdf to word with Adobe Acrobat or other software.

Creating acrobat 9.1 PDF mailmerge documents from Word 2007

PDF maker cannot locate the Adobe PDF printer's printer driver. Please reinstall Adobe Acrobat 9.1

No,I have not been able to get any more information. I do know that reinstalling Acrobat 9.1 Professional did not solve the problem.

Can't delete a document that is declared a record (because I can't undeclare record)

We use in-place records management with regular document libraries. Users declare/undeclare records all day long.
I came across something strange where a document that was declared a record cannot be deleted. Typically, I can just undeclare the document (through Compliance Details) and then delete the document. When I try to undeclare, I click the Undeclare link (and
then refresh), but the document does not actually undeclare (the item still shows up as a record). I also tried undeclaring/deleting via PowerShell, but I constantly get the error: "...locked read-only"
Thoughts on how to get rid of this document?

can reproduce what you describe, the key point is that:
when you declare a document as record, it is a HTTP post command to the SharePoint document library allitems.aspx page.
after you undeclare the record, you might want to check the status of the document by refreshing the page, it will prompt you message like:
To display the webpage again, the web browser needs to resend the information you've previously submitted. If you were making a purchase, you should click cancel to avoid a duplicate transaction. Otherwise, click Retry to display the webpage again.
So, if you click Retry, another HTTP post command is sent and the document is declared as record again.
The correct way is to navigate to another page and navigate back again, you will see the document undeclared status.

TA22440 Can't delete a document under Favorites in Finder.

In Finder, on the left under favorites (Documents, Applications, etc.) I have ended up with a document that ends in "...copy.webarchive". I can't delete it. I can't even select it by clicking on it. It can't be found in spotlight. How can I get rid of it?

Sorry for the post. Question answered.

Can't delete certain emails in Outlook 2007

I work at a help desk and was presented with this issue that I can't figure out.
At our company when someone receives a voicemail you can have it attached to an email and sent to the person receiving it. I got a call from one of our employees that can't delete the email with the voicemail attached to it. If she has the message
highlighted and presses the delete key or right-clicks and selects Delete nothing happens, no error message, nothing. If she tries to move the message to another folder she gets the message 'Cannot move the item. The item cannot be moved.
It was either moved, already deleted or access was denied' The message still shows in her inbox so it doesn't appear to have been moved anywhere.
I also had her sign into Outlook Web Access and delete the message there and she got the same error message.
She can hold down shift and then delete the message but that will permanently delete the item, which she doesn't want to do. She can't even move it to an archive file if she wanted to.
This just started happening recently when we upgraded from Win XP to Win 7, but we had Office 2007 on both so that didn't change. We have Exchange 2010.
I have made sure that Cached Exchange Mode is off, I have also deleted and recreated her mail profile. She can delete or move other messages with and without attachments just fine.
Has anyone ever seen anything like this?
Thanks.

Hi,
The workaround is to use Cached Exchange Mode or "Shift + Delete", as the user doesn't want to delete the message permanently, using Cached Exchange Mode is preferred.
Based on my research, this issue is more Exchange 2010 related, and you mentioned the user also got the error from Outlook Web Access. This issue occurs after Exchange 2010 Service Pack 2 RU6 or Exchange 2010 Service Pack 3 is installed.
To resolve this issue, install the following update rollup:
2803727 Description of Update Rollup 1 for Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 3
I hope the information is helpful.

Can we delete a document type?

Dear All,
I created a document type supposedly to be used in a One-sided reclassifcation.
But, i understood that, one-sided reclassification will not post a document.
(I have configured this long back & i believe that it did not allow me to create the One-sided recalssification task without creating the document type. But, i m not sure of this).
Now - if i try to delete this document type - system will not allow me.
It gives an error message as
If you want to delete Document Type R1, you must first change Cons of Investments C1 so that Document Type R1 is no longer used.
Note that further uses of Document Type R1 may exist. That is, after you have changed Cons of Investments C1, the system may display yet another usage the next time you attempt the deletion. Hence, make sure you eliminate all uses of Document Type R1.
In my system there is no C1 in Consolidation of Investments.
Is this C1 a special version?
I searched in special versions - but could not make any sense there.
Any clues on how to go about this?
Thnaks!
Kumar

Thanks Dan,
There is no task or method with the name C1.
Re:"It is suggested you executed a "where used" search on the document type R1 as it may be used in another version".
Yeah, i did this before.
Here is what i got:
Master data Characterisitics: 1 use (this is a folder icon)
Cons of Investments Charact Values: 1 use (this is a folder icon)
Characteristic C1 (this is a charcteristic - adjacent to this there is a button to change it)
When i click the change button, I get a message
No maintenance screen exists for the object
Diagnosis
Using the where-used list, you found a data record that is version-dependent. The data record belongs to special version type Consolidation of Investments and special version 100.
Procedure
If you want to display or change the data record in the Workbench, you should check the parameters to see if a version combination belonging to special version type Consolidation of Investments and special version 100 has been specified.
If this is not the case, change the parameters before you change the data record.
Re: "If the document type is not assigned to a task in any version it cannot be used and may not need to be deleted".
But we dont want to keep the unused doc type's :'(

Hi Fan0124, Windows programs do not run on OSX, makes no difference whether it is Lion or not.

This sounds crazy, but I can't delete a document in Pages. How do I do that? duh.

How do I delete an entire document in Pages? I've tried and it won't go away! I've used every key word/phrase I can think of to get an answer. Thank you.

If you have never saved it just close it and don't save.
If you saved it, go to Finder where you saved it to (probably in your Documents folder), and drag the file to the trash.
