Copying from microsoft word into my application

I am copying from microsoft word into my application..
and them on submit, i am calling a procedure i get the following error
Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01460: unimplemented or unreasonable conversion requested
i think its down to special characters used.. like apostrophe is different in word then normal.. anyone got solution for this error not to occur?

74 questions, 72 unresolved.
And this one: sadly we are not looking over your shoulder, so we don't know what 'copying' means, which version of Word, which 4-digit version of the database, and which SQL statement fails.

  • Pasting text that was copied from microsoft word 2008

    In dreamweaver CS3, if I want to paste text that I have
    copied from Microsoft Word 2008, i have to paste it in entourage,
    copy that and THEN I can paste in dreamweaver. I can't paste
    directly in Dreamweaver from word. is there an extension that will
    cut out this extra step?
    Thanks much,
    Page

    I just copied two paragraphs of text from Word 2008, and
    pasted it into DW's
    Design view. No tables.
    What is it you are copying?

  • Pasting from Microsoft Word into Adobe Illustrator...problem

    Hello gang, I'm a professional comic book letterer and I recently decided to upgrade from using TextEdit to using Microsoft Word for all of my script copy pasting that I have to do.
    In TextEdit when I copy a page from a comic script it will then paste into Adobe Illustrator beautifully. Retains line breaks and formatting really well (doesn't remember bolds or italics, but oh well). However, when I paste from the Word version of the same script, all the line breaks disapear, leaving me with a big square block of text, making it hard for me to easily find dialogue to use on the page.
    Does anyone have a solution for this? Is this a known issue with Word? I can't seem to find anything about it on the net.
    I'm using Word 11 for Mac version 14.2.1 I think it is and Adobe Illustrator CS3 for Mac.
    Running Snow Leopard on a MacBook Pro for what that's worth. Verion 10.6.8
    thanks,
    -- J

    When I tried to place a 12 pages Word doc in Illustrator CS5, the same way told by John_Danek, I could see a small + sign on the bottom right corner of the text box. If you double click that text box, you can see page 2 of the doc. Similarly, you can view all the pages of your Word doc in Illie.
    OR
    If save your content in a PDF and then place the PDF in Illustrtaor. This will help you retain formatting as well as will allow you selecting page numbers of your document you want to place.

  • Successfully importing cross-references from Microsoft Word into InDesign?

    Hello --
    I am laying out a series of long documents (~130 pages each) in InDesign CS5.5.
    The writer for the project has used cross-references in MS Word for areas like the TOC, index and page references ("See page X for more information").
    Is it possible to import these cross-references into InDesign so that the InDesign document functions like the Word document with the cross-references?
    I am thinking no because I am having a ton of trouble with it so far, but wanted to get a definite answer from an expert.
    When I import the text, the cross-references appear in InDesign in the Hyperlinks/cross-reference panel. However, InDesign says they need to be updated based on the way the text flowed in InDesign. And when I click the auto update button, all sorts of funky stuff happens and basically -- the cross-references create a bunch of typos and become junk.
    Thoughts? Knowledge on this topic?
    Thanks in advance!!

    I can't speak to general or specific causes of your cross-reference problems. However, I believe that InDesign x-refs behave a bit differently in CS4, CS5, and CS5.5, and if you have either of these earlier releases, you might try them for comparison.
    Also, you might want to look into the free trial of DTP Tools' cross-references plug-in for InDesign, at dtptools.com, to see if it's more successful than InDesign's built-in x-refs.

  • Copying from Microsoft Word is a total mess.  Possible to preserve formatting?

    What a disappointment.   I've got many pages all done up in MS Word 2007 and when I copy and paste it, its all centered, instead of just the top few lines like in MS Word.  Is there a way of making Dreamweaver read Word documents without making such a mess of them in the transfer process?  This is really astounding considering Word is the most commonly used word processor in the world I would think. If Dreamweaver can't read the most commonly used processor's output properly, what does it say about the designers?  Or perhaps I have a setting that is incorrect?  Hope so.

    I agree 1000% (Yes, 1000%) with Nancy. But I'll go one further. DO NOT copy Word text into design view in DW if you want efficient web pages.
    Word adds so much "conditional formatting" and inline styles that what should be a 3kb page ends up around 13-16kb or larger depending on just how much Word text you've copied and pasted.
    Word is a word processor, Dreamweaver is an HTML editor. Two similar but different beasts. Use CSS to set things like headings, bylines and paragraph indents. If you don't know how to do those basic things in CSS, you need to stop right now and learn them or you will find that web design is a lot harder than you think it is.  This attempt at pasting a Word document into a window and expecting it to magicallly "become a web page" tells me you're just starting at web design. Every chef started as a cook. You need to learn at least how to walk before you take off running.
    Check altweb (Nancy's site) and look up David Powers. They will both give you some very necessary information and advice on HTML and CSS BEFORE you endeavor to be a web designer.

  • Pasting text from Microsoft Word

    I am working in InDesign on a Windows XP computer. When I paste text from Microsoft Word into InDesign the text loses its formatting such as italics and bold. Is there any way to maintain that formatting? I am supplied with this text by a client and I have so much formatting to do that the projects take me longer than necessary.

    ... and don't forget to run this set of macros in Word BEFORE you do copy/paste ;)

  • Reading Single Quote Character from Microsoft Word

    Hi,
    I do a cut and paste from Microsoft Word into a JTextPane. I am trying to catch the "curly quote" and use the following code.
    current = /* text of JTextPane)
    for (i = 0; i < current.length(); i++) {
    Character cx = new Character(current.charAt(i));
    if (cx == '\222')
    return true;
    Now, nothing gets returned even though \222 is in the document.
    When I do a
    System.out.println (current)
    It prints
    \222When I do a
    if (current.charAt(0) == '\222')
    False is returned....
    Is there something I am misssing???
    Thanks

    Print out Integer.toOctalString(of all the chars). You should see 222 there somewhere. If you don't, the characters is not \222.

  • Why can't I copy from Microsoft 2011 Word to apple postage stamp email?

    Why can't I copy from Microsoft 2011 Word to apple postage stamp email?

    You probably ended up purchasing a Mac OS X 10.6.3 DVD. I have posted previously about this. I will edit this once I find the post again.
    10.6.3 is incompatible with the Mac Pro you are using. You must install the version that came with your computer or newer. (Yours came with 10.6.4)
    If you do not have the original discs:
    There is another way to do this that I just remembered when one of my co-workers asked me if I had a 10.6.6 disc.
    You need two macs: NEW and OLDER.
    Connect NEW and OLDER via firewire cable. (NEWER is probably firewire 800, so you may need a firewire 400-800 adapter or cable)
    Boot NEW into "Target Disk Mode" by holding down 'T' at boot until the Firewire logo (looks like a Y) appears.
    Boot to Install Disc in OLDER.
    Once you have booted to the install disc, it is the same process as installing it onto the internal drive, except you need to choose the Drive in the other computer as the target drive. The drive that you want to install to will look like it's a firewire drive (so it will look like a mounted usb drive but with that 'Y' symbol on it.)
    MAKE SURE NOT TO INSTALL OVER THE GOOD DRIVE!!!!!
    Go ahead and install Mac OS X.
    Once it finishes installing and OLDER shuts down hold down the 'Option' key right after the chime. Select the drive that you just installed Mac OS X on. It should appear just as it did in the Installer.
    Once it has booted and you have logged in: run software update and update to the latest version of the OS. Once you have finished updating, shutdown the computer. Unplug the firewire cable. Turn off NEW, then turn it back on. It should work properly.

  • When I copy and paste a chapter from MS Word into Pages my tables and equations are trashed.  But importing them results in no control over my template How do I get my chapter into my template without copying

    When I copy and paste a chapter from MS Word into Pages my tables and equations are trashed.  But importing them results in no control over my template How do I get my chapter into my template without copying?

    Try just Opening the Word .doc from within Pages and see if that gets closer to what you want, then copy the chapter you want from the Pages version.

  • Is there a way I can easily manipulate tables from Microsoft Word in Illustrator?

    So my boss has a lot of tables from microsoft word that she wants to move into Illustrator in hopes that this will be easier for her to manipulate them. However, her main concern is that she wants to be able to easily edit the content of the tables without having to individually adjust each row or cell. Is there a way to move microsoft word tables into illustrator in a way that when adding new content, the rows and cells adjust to fit the text?
    I've played around with tables in illustrator in a few different ways trying to make this work, like using the area type tool options to add rows and columns to a text box, using the rectangular grid tool, and simply copying and pasting tables from word into Illustrator. I've run into the same issue each time, which was that I could pretty easily change the text, but when it comes to resizing the cells, it's pretty similar to word.
    Is there any way I can make this work in Illustrator? Or would this be possible with another program like Photoshop or Indesign?
    Any advice is appreciated.

    We are going to try InDesign, thank you

  • Importing text from Microsoft Word documents

    Can anyone offer recommendations or tips on the Import feature?  I am considering use of import for a vast amount of content from Microsoft Word documents.  I am using DW CS3 and I have heard good and bad about the import feature.  I would like to try to make it work for me and to make sure I'm using it correctly.  Many thanks! Ms. Gill

    I hate to say this, but don't do that.
    Ms. Web Editor (may I call you Web?), I regularly input stuff my clients send me from Microsoft Word. I never attempt an HTML conversion from Microsoft. It's just too dirty.
    Instead, what I do is I copy paragraphs into Dreamweaver's Code View window, putting a <p> and a </p> before and after them.
    If there are headings and sub headings in Word, I simply make them into lines without HTML, then press [Command]-1 or [Command]-2 to make those lines into <h1> or <h2> tags.
    I never try to export from Word. Microsoft does not know how to create clean HTML and CSS. It is always a losing proposition to trust that they do.

  • HOW CAN I IMPORT TEXT FROM MICROSOFT WORD TO THE WEB PAGE?

    HOW CAN I IMPORT TEXT FROM MICROSOFT WORD TO THE WEB PAGE?

    Another method is tosave your Word document as an a web page.  Then open the htm file, copy the text and paste into an HTML snippet on your web page.  Resize to show all the document and publish. It will retain the style, font and alignment of the original Word document.

  • Message saying that I can't open the application Microsoft Word because PowerPC applications are no longer supported?

    I had just upgraded my macbook to Mountain Lion and was wondering why PowerPC applications were no longer supported. I kind of really need to use Word for school, but when I tried to open it, I got the message "You can't open the application "Microsoft Word" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."

    Here is a recent post I assembled for a similar question:
    Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta.  Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
    However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion).  While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
    Workarounds:
    1. If your Mac will support it, restore OS X Snow Leopard;
    2.  If your Mac will support it, partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it and use the "dual-boot" method to choose between your PowerPC software or Lion/Mt. Lion;
    3.  Upgrade your software to Intel compatible versions if they are available, or find alternative software that will;
