Errors closing Word multiple documents

Since upgrading to GroupWise 7 Support Pack 3 this problem occurs for everyone: Multiple Word documents have been opened. Closing any of the open Word documents will cause the message to appear 'This file is in use by another application or user'. The user will click 'OK'. Then the window will appear to 'Save the document'. The user will select 'Cancel', then try again to close the document. Then the error message appears: 'Changes have been made that affect the global template Normal.DOT. Do you want to save those changes?' The user then selects 'No'.
This happens every time more than 1 Word document is open.
Is there a fix for this problem? Much obliged for any help.

I just tried it & yes it does go away if you don't open it through GW so that does help me avoid the error messages at least. As for upgrading... not that I'm aware of.
Thanks for your input, I appreciate it. I guess I'll live with it until the powers that be decide to step into the year 2009! :)

6.0.4 is a bit long in the tooth - any thoughts of moving to a newer
version of GW ?, it's difficult to remember any distinct problems for
something that old :-(

  • Smartform error while printing multiple documents

    Hi Friends,
    When I am  trying to print individual documents the Smartform output is correct but when I select multiple documents its showing an error that says ' Table GRAPH does not fit into the window'. When I change the GRAPH node it says some other node does not fit. And it goes on.
    Is there any easy way to correct this error ?
    Please help.
    Regards,
    Dikshitha G

    Hi Dikshitha,
    First you need to check whether you have used TABLE under a secondary window or Main window? When you use table GRAPH under MAIN window then automatically next page will be printed and Window width adjusts automatically. Only make sure Hight and Width of Window should not be less than the Table. Click on Output tab of Main window and not down hight and width similarly check for TABLES.
    Regards,
    Gaurav.

  • Smartview 11.1.2.1 and Office 2010 on Citrix error closing word 2010

    I have installed Hyperion Smartview 11.1.2.1.0 on a Windows 2008 R2 terminal server (with citrix xenapp 6) with Office 2010 (32 bits).
    when i launch Microsoft word 2010 and close it i get the following error: Word cannot save this file because it is already open elsewhere (normal).
    does anyone have an idea what this could be? when i disable the smartview add-in i dont get the error.
    I use Roaming Profiles for the users.

    Smart View and Citrix is a quirky combination. I've observed other strange behaviors in Smart View when using it on Citrix.

    Hi Waqas
    Thanks for your help with this. I had a look at both posts, the URL works fine from the WAC server and I am not using a System account to test docs.
    Also, this is a production site that is accessible over the Internet, so we are using https therefore the WOPIZone is external-https.
    Issue #3 in the above blog link does not reflect the same error I see on my servers.
    I also had a look at the information in this link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff431687.aspx#oauth
    Problem: You receive a "Sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document" error when you try to view an Office document in Office Web Apps.
    If you added domains to the Allow List by using the
    New-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet, make sure you’re accessing Office Web Apps from a host domain that’s in the Allow List. To view the host domains in the Allow List, on the Office Web Apps Server open the Windows PowerShell prompt as an administrator and run
    the Get-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet. To add a domain to the Allow List, use the
    New-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet.
    I have not added any domains to the Allow list so this did not help either. Should I add the domain?
    Any further help with this is much appreciated.
    Thanks again.

  • When I try and open Microsoft Word 2011 documents they start opening one after another at a rapid speed and I can't stop it. I reboot and same thing happens?

    When I try and open Microsoft Word 2011 documents on my  IMAC they start opening one after another at a rapid speed and I can't stop it. I reboot and same thing happens. The documents open in rapid succession on their own and don't stop until I force close or after maybe 100 or more open I start getting the following message for each document attemting to open "This document could not be registered. It will not be possible to create links from other documents to this document" and then in paretheses the name of the document. After I click okay another trys to open. Any suggestions?

    If you had multiple documents open and quit the app without closing all of the docs first, it will open them again when you launch the app. Open Word, and then close all the documents, you may be asked to save the document, if the document was already saved but you made changes to it before you quit the app, you may need to save the changes first, shorcut ( command and s keys). After you close all of the documents then quit the app and restart the computer. See if this works.

  • Problem Converting Word 2007 Document to PDF

    I am having trouble converting a Word 2007 document to a PDF document.  I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.  I have tried to convert the document using the right-click drop down list as well as converting from within the Word document screen itself.  I get the same results -- no PDF document is converted (or opened in a PDF screen).
    When I do the convert from the drop down list or from within the Word document, it gets to the point where it asks me for the name of the new document.  I click save (on the Word document name) and it looks like it is converting, but then the Adobe Acrobat conversion window disappears and no PDF document opens.  I noticed that on the frequently used documents list (from the Windows start button), the new PDF document is listed, but when I click on it, Windows say it cannot find the associated file.  When I look through the list of documents in the folder, the new PDF file is not there either.
    I ran the repair program in Adobe Acrobat.  After it was done, I clicked the button not to restart until later.  When that window closed, I heard the windows "gong" sound with a message to reinstall acrobat.  I rebooted and the problem persists.
    I also have a Fujitsu Scansnap machine which scans documents to PDF files and that seems to still be working fine, so I know at least part of Acrobat is working fine.
    I check the list of disabled add ins in Office and nothing is disabled.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Open the document in WORD. Select the print menu in WORD (don't know what to call the stupid file icon MS now uses) and select the Adobe PDF printer. See if printing there works.
    If the print does work, then skip the next few comments. If it does not, then go back to the print menu and check the print-to-file button and print. You will be asked for a location and file name. Be sure to note where you put the file and change the extension to PS (like filename.ps). Then starte Distiller and open the PS file you created in Distiller (if you forget to change the extension to PS, then it will be a PRN file and just select that one). Check if the PDF is created this time. If not, you should get error messages from Distiller -- copy all of the error message back here for us to see.
    If the PDF creation in the last step worked, then open the task list (ctrl-alt-del -- select the task list) and look for AcroTray.exe. If it is not running, then it has probably been deleted from the startup. It is found in the Distiller folder of Acrobat for most versions, but may have moved for your version. In any case, restart it if needed.
    As for PDF Maker that you are apparently using, that is a different process. However, check the printing process first and see if you can get it working. If not, PDF Maker will likely not work either. With AA8 and before, PDF Maker was simply a preprocessor for the printer and the selection of a DOC file in Acrobat simply uses PDF Maker to create the PDF. So you have to back out to more basics in creation and be sure those are working before the more advanced technique you are trying to use has any hope.

  • Multiple - Documents Display

    All,
    I am using fuction module ALINK_DOCUMENTS_DISPLAY to display Content server Documents.
    So my question is
    1. This function module have option to display only 1 document at a time. Is any other function module that can display multiple documents ?
    2. Is any class available with the same functionality of the above said fm does ?

    Hi  a®s,
    I don't know of any FM for this purpose, but I think it should be possible.
    For document display, SAP will always download a copy of the server content to the local SAP work directory. You can check this, if you display a document and, when open, check the directory.
    Then they call the respective application (windows, excel, word) and create an OLE application to display/edit.
    My idea is to download multiple files, create docking/splitter/dialogbox containers (one for for each document) and create document viewer instance in each control
    C_OI_CONTAINER_CONTROL_CREATOR=>get_container_control
    will get you the DOI Container, then
    * initialize the SAP DOI Container, tell it to run in the container
    * specified above and tell it to run application in-place
      CALL METHOD mo_container_control->init_control
        EXPORTING
          r3_application_name      = 'whatever your title is here'(001)
          inplace_enabled          = 'X'
          inplace_scroll_documents = 'X'
          parent                   = mo_excel_container
          register_on_close_event  = 'X'
          register_on_custom_event = 'X'
        IMPORTING
          error                    = mo_error.
    *   get document proxy
      CALL METHOD mo_container_control->get_document_proxy
        EXPORTING
          document_type  = mc_document_type
        IMPORTING
          document_proxy = mo_document_proxy
          error          = mo_error.
    Refer to this document Desktop Office Integration (BC-CI). It helped me a lot when I tried to integrate an excel application.
    But to be honest, I did not try more than one instance of OLE application. But I do not see any obstacles.
    If this seems too complicated, you may try to call your function
    DATA:
      gv_task TYPE char08 VALUE 'T0000000'.
        ADD 1 TO gv_task+1."increase  numeric part of task name
        CALL FUNCTION 'XYZ'
          STARTING NEW TASK gv_task
    This will open a new session.
    Good luck, let us know...
    Kind regards,
    Clemens

  • Unable to click on excel object within a word 2010 document

    Whenever a user tries to click an Excel Object within a Word 2010 document, the error "Microsoft Word can't start the application required to open this object. An error occured and this feature  is no longer functioning properly. Would you
    like to repair this feature now?". Clicking YES runs a repair on Office 2010, which does not resolve the issue. Clicking No gets you the following prompt: "The program used to create this object is Excel. That program is either not installed on your
    computer or it is not responding. To edit this object, install Excel or ensure that any dialog boxes in Excel are closed." 
    Operating System: Windows 7, Office Version: 2010
    I've tried the following to resolve the issue, without success:
    Running the Office Repair as suggested in the prompt
    There are no open dialog boxes in Excel
    There are no COM add-ins or Excel add-ins active in Excel
    Starting Word in Safe Mode (clicking CTRL on open) does not resolve the issue.
    "Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)" is unchecked in Excel.
    I am able to edit this document with no problem on a machine running Windows 7 with Office 2007 or even office 2013.

    Hi,
    Do you see this problem if you start Windows in Safe Mode? You might want to have a try and verify result, some outside application may be preventing the OLE server/client connection.
    Have you ever checked your anti virus? Try to disable it and check again.
    Please make sure to install any updates to your system or Office products. It's important to make it up to date.
    Try to go to your task manager to kill any excel process and then try again.
    I have seen a case that user finally fixed this with a clean uninstallation and reinstallation, if issue presists with all above steps, you might want to do a completely reinstallation and then try again.
    Thanks,

  • Error on update of document stored in content server

    Error on update of document stored in content server
    On a regular basis (but not reproducible) we find that after updating a document, it is deleted from content server (or at least it cannot be retrieved).  These problems have only been experienced since we switched to using content server as our storage repository, as opposed to R/3.
    We create and maintain documents through a bespoke transaction, which calls standard SAP functions BDS_BUSINESSDOCUMENT_CREA_TAB and cl_bds_document_set=>update_with_table.
    Whilst the errored documents are listed in the BDS via transaction OAOR (business document navigator), an error is received when you try to display it (in our case an MS-Word error indicating file/pathname invalid). 
    We are satisfied that file/pathname are valid and find that this occurs occasionally when a document has been updated.  It appears that the document has been deleted. 
    This bespoke transaction has been running successfully for almost two years, and these problems have only been experienced after switching to content server as a storage repository (as opposed to R3 previously).  Has anyone else experienced these problems? 
    We are running :
    R/3 Enterprise 620,
    SAP HTTP Content Server Version 6.30 Patch 13
    SAPDB version 7.3.0.54

    Hi Sonny,
    To check the connectivity between your content server and Workstation and SAP Server.
    Pls goto the command prompt of your workstation
    give the command like this example.
    C:\>Ping 117.123.45.201
    you will get the reply from the server. here 117.123.45.201 is your content server IP.
    If you are getting the reply then it means that your contentserver and workstation are connected propely.
    Like that pls check the connectivity between your systems.
    Pls check the hosts file of your systems also.
    If the hosts file entry is not maintained, you can check-out file from content server but you cannot check-in the original.
    Pls let me know what kind of error Message you are getting?
    From where you are trying to check-in the Original? From the DIR screen or from CAD Desktop screen?
