Which ever WP app you are using, most if not all have their own Help in their menus and/or tutorials.

I can't use Word 2003

Hello,
I've MS Office 2003 and RoboHelp for Word (demo activated for
30 days trial) installed on a Vista HP system.
When I open Word to load a previously edited document (.doc
file) it does not open but the control of Word is taken by
Robohelp.
How to use Word normally?
I tried to uninstall RH but the Word menu has always the
Roboform Item in it. When I select one of the RH menu items from
Word I get of course an error message that invites to reinstall RH.
Any help?

Hello, I have just tried that, but I can't remove the
RoboHook.wll item.
I have uninstalled the RoboDemo but I have always that Add-In
installed. I have also deleted all the keys referring to RoboHelp
in the Registry, but the issue remains.
Finally, during the first training, I tried to import one doc
file. I got nothing and now, despite the uninstalling of RoboHelp,
I am no more able to load that doc file in Word and I get the tip
to re-install RH.
Thanks, Emiliano

How to edit word documents once converted

Can someone please advise how to edit a document I have converted into word from PDF.
Many thanks

Not sure what you mean. Are you asking how to use WORD? It also depends if you used the layout or the flow conversion process. With the layout, you get a bunch of text boxes. Almost nothing is in the standard flow of WORD. If you use the flow version, you sometimes get some strange sequencing of items. You might try both. If you have a graphic, then you either have to edit the graphic in a graphics package or do OCR in Acrobat before you do the conversion.

how can i stop an error message that comes up when i am using word? the error message is "word is unable to save the Autorecover file in the location specified. Make sure that you have specified a valid location for Autoreover files in Preferences,…"

It sounds like if you open Preferences in Word there will be a place where you can specify where to store autorecover files. Right now it sounds like it's pointing to somewhere that doesn't exist.

I am trying to use Words with friends on my iphone 5. How do I get rid of "Connect to itunes to Use Push Notifications

Reading some older threads from 2012 and 2011 it appears the problem was present even then. Part of the problem was due to people using multiple or different account id's on the various devices. In my case, I only have one ID and it is the same on all devices yet the iPhone and iPad are still throwing the same error when I try turning on iTunes Match. This is very frustrating . . . any help out there? Thanks.

How to insert blank page into pages document when using word processing mode?

I've recently created a 50+ page document using Pages '09. I started the document using word processing mode. Now, when I view in thumbnail mode and try to insert a blank page somehwere in the middle of the document, it won't allow me to select where I want. It just selects all the pages, as thought they are one section. I believe this is because I am in word processing mode. My question is, can I convert the document to layout mode so that each page represents it's own section, without losing what work I've already done? And if so, how?
The document is entirely text boxes and images, so I don't have any need for word processing space. I just need new pages to act as blank templates for the text boxes and images I create.
Is it possible to keep all my work as is, and convert the document to layout mode vs. word processing mode?
Thanks!

It just selects all the pages, as thought they are one section.
That's because they are one section. You must insert section breaks to separate them. There is no need to use page layout which does make each page a separate section. You have to manually add each page & use text boxes or other containers for the text & link the text boxes.

How to use Microsoft Word's Find and Replace with HTML tags?

Hello to all!
I'm trying to figure out how to use the find and replace function in Word to replace html tags. I'd like to be able to change something like this:
random text
To something like this:
random text
I want to replace the open and close tags without changing or interfering with the text between the tags. I'm pretty sure I should use wildcards, but I can't figure out how to use them properly.
Anyone able to lend a hand?

Here is my latest regular expression with Perl. I think it matches the spirit of the request in the original post.
Note, this isn't as easy as you think. You need to code up the complete set of html rules in you implementation. You need to allow for a certain amount of mal-formed html.
perl -0660pe 's^<[sS][pP][aA][nN]\s+class="B01-K-ITAL"\s*>(.*?)</[sS][pP][aA][nN]>^$1^gs' i.html >|o.html
input text
<html> <head>...</head> <body>I'd like to be able to change something like this: #1 one line I want to replace the open and close tags without changing or interfering with the text between the tags.

How to use synonyms on multiple word search ?

We use context with multiword search like this one :
select * from my_table where contains(my_text,'the small building near the river')>0
Now we have specific synonyms in a thesaurus. How do we write the contains clause ?
contains(my_text,'syn(the,thes) and syn(small,thes) and syn(building,thes) and syn(near,thes) and syn (river,thes)')>0 does not fin the synonym for "small building"="house" for instance
contains(my_text,'syn(the small building near the river,thes)')>0 does only for synonyms on the full sentence.
More generally is there an Oracle Document which describes how to use SYN, FUZZY and combine them, since
the reference documentation gives only limited information on this ?
Have a nice day

The thesaurus functionality is not currently built for stuff like this.
if you want to combine fuzzy and thesaurus, I am assuming you want to do fuzzy first, to correct any misspelling,
then thesaurus on the "corrected" spellings? You'd have to do something like:
1. take the query and run ctx_query.explain to break it down and do the fuzzy expansion
2. work through the fuzzy expansion and build a new query string by sticking SYN() around each
expanded word
As for thesaurus expansion and phrase, these are not compatible. Thesaurus expansions use "," and "|", and so
you cannot have a phrase of thesaurus expansions.
I see what you're getting at, but you would need sub phrase detection, phrase equivalence, etc., which is
currently beyond the thesaurus function capability.
You can use themes (ABOUT) on phrases, and it will do something like what you are describing. You might want
to check that out.

You may have blundered into "Full Screen" mode, an abomination ported from iOS, the iPhone Operating System, land of tiny screens and one-at-a-time Applications.
Try clicking the double-arrows in the extreme upper right of the MenuBar or Window.

Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper)

Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper). For example, if I am downloading a paper by smith called "Surgery" that was published in 2002, it will automatically set the file name in the download to smith- surgery 2002. I have heard pages is smart enough to do this.
thank you

Pages can export only its own documents. They may be exported as PDF, MS Word, RTF or Text files.
Pages can import (ie. Open a file as, or Insert a file into, a Pages document) documents in several formats, but won't rename the document as you describe. Documents that can be Opened (eg. Text, AppleWorks 6 WP, MS Word files) are converted to Pages documents, and retain their original names, with .pages replacing the original file extension. Files that can be Inserted (generally .jpg, .pdf and other image files) become part of the existing Pages file and lose their names.
It may be possible, using AppleScript, to extract the text you want and to Save a Pages file using that text as the filename, but that would depend in part on being able to identify which text is wanted and which is not.
How will the script determine where the author's name begins and where it ends?
How will the script recognize the beginning and of the title, an decide how much of the title to use in the filename?
How will the script recognize the year of publication?
For papers published in a specific journal, with a strict format for placing each of these pieces on information, or containing the needed information as searchable meta data in the file, this might be possible. But it would require knowledge of the structure of these files, and would probably handle only papers published in a specific journal or set of journals.
Outside my field of knowledge, but there are some talented scripters around here who might want to take a closer look.
Best of luck.

Barry

MS Word Reports-how to use bookmarks

I am using the labview report writing tools to produce an MS Word report. I have produced several headings, information strings, tables etc. I need to use "Word Insert Object.vi" to place certain objects such as excel charts at certain places in the word report. This VI uses bookmarks in word to point at the right locations (the VI also seems incredibly limited in that it provides only a file reference as a source to obtain the object from - but no way of referring to which object in the file?? Does this mean I have to go to all the trouble to separate out my source objects to each reside in their own exclusive word doc? The documentation for "Word Insert Object" suggests you can extract objects from excel, but doesnt say how to identify the objects. Can anyone enlighten me?
The only way I can see to set up the bookmarks in the word doc to send my objects to is to setup a template doc with the bookmarks and pagebreaks in place as a starting point before I use the labview report generation vis to place everything else. The objects insert quite happily at the required bookmarks (since the vi has an input which specifies the bookmark to use), but now everything else that used to form my title page, tables, text etc are pushed to the end of the template document (i.e. after all of the bookmarks and pagebreaks structured into my template). None of the other report generation vis (insert tables, text etc) seem to have any ability to point at bookmark locations.
I can only hope for 2 possibilities here:
1) that there is a way to make the non-bookmark capable vis jump to a certain location in the document (by forcing the cursor there somehow)
2) that there is a way to programatically place bookmarks in the document as I write the various parts of it from labview, to which I can then insert objects at the end of the process.
Can anyone enlighten me about the approach to use here?
thanks
Fred

Hi Fred,
Well to answer both of the numerated questions, I can think of two ways that would most likely fix your problem.
1) Find the activeX call that can place bookmarks or move the cursor in your word document.
2) Make a macro that can do the same thing.
Has anyone in the community ever attempted this?

I am trying to find out how to assign files with particular extensions to the appropriate software. At the moment when I create a file using Word it is apparently given the extension .docx but Word doesn't recognise its own files. How do I allocate the extension .docx to Word? There used to be a way of doing it, I think under "Preferences" but I can't seem to find it.

Still in the same location:

Of course they aren't sure, Open Office is nothing to do with Oracle, it's an Apache product ..... update your notes.
