This message can appear if:
·The macro was deleted from the template.
·The template was not loaded or referenced in the
Templates and Add-ins command.
·The macro was turned off by the macro security settings of your system.
If the macro security settings are not allowing the macro to run, you should confirm the origin of the macro to be sure that it can be trusted (contact the developer
or the source for the macro). You can then temporarily enable all macros by using the following procedure.
Click the
File tab, click Options, click Trust Center, and then click
Trust Center settings.
Click
Macro Settings.
Under
Macro Settings, click Enable all macros.
NOTE: Be sure to change this option back to its original setting after
you have run the macro.
If the macro is not accessible because the template is not loaded, click the
File tab, click Options, and then click
Add-Ins. At the bottom of the Add-Ins pane, select
Templates from the Manage drop down list, and then click
Go. In the Templates and Add-ins dialog box, click either
Attach or Add. If the macro is not in the template, you may need to copy the macro from one template to another. Click the
Organizer button at the bottom of the Templates and Add-ins dialog box to start the
Organizer utility.

Since you have allowed all macros, the problem appears to be that the macros are not available.
I noticed in your screencast that the screentip for one of the macros read Normal.NewMacros.Indent. That indicates that the macro should be found in your default template Normal.dotm. For another, the screentip was Project.NewMacros.Bold or something like
that. That makes me suspect the macro is NOT in Normal.dotm
From Word, press Alt+F11 to activate the Visual Basic Editor.
You'll see the Project Explorer on the left hand side. In the screenshot above, you see that my Normal template has one module, named basCode. The macros in this module are globally available in Word.
Check whether you can find macros in your Normal template, under Modules. Double-click a module to see its contents.

Macro not working for Word.

My macro is not working for Microsoft word. Its showing some macro settings issue. Please help.

Hi,
The macro you mean is Macro Recoder, isn't it? As far as I know, this product may be not compatible with Windows 8.1. I found the link below show its system requirements:

WinHelp, Windows 8 and Ultrabook - macros not working

Our products are generated for WinHelp 2000 using RH9 for Word
The user has symptoms typical of macros not working. This has normally been caused by the user not properly doing the step described in the Knowledgebase article at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917607 regarding " How to enable macros on a single computer after you install the WinHlp32.exe"
I have updated a machine to Windows 8, performed the Knowledgebase article items and our products work fine. I have also verified that the user's machine has the correct registry settings, so it looks like Windows 8 is not the culprit. That leaves the Ultrabook
This combination of Windows 8 and Ultrabook is quite new and I am hoping someone using WinHelp 2000 has already run into it.
Please let me know if so.
Thanks

David
On rereading this, I am not sure I follow.
You say "I have updated a machine to Windows 8, performed the Knowledgebase article items and our products work fine."
So on your machine it is OK but not on that of a user who has an Ultrabook, is that the case? If so, I'm not sure how to help as it is machine specific. Are you 100% sure they downloaded the right viewer and installed it with admin rights?

After installing acrobat my Microsoft office package does not work properly, word will not open and in my email i can't select anything with the mouse

After installing acrobat my Microsoft office package does not work properly, word will not open and when I want to write an email in my outlook email i can't select anything with the mouse. so copy past en delete are not an option.@

Are you using any MS Office third party Add-ins? Test: Remove third party Add-ins other than PDFMaker. Test to see if the MS Office apps run afterward.
Did you attempt to repair MS Office? Test: Go to Add/Remove Control Panel run Repair.
Finally, have you tried testing to see if it's PDFMaker? Test: Use the Add/Remove Control Panel to modify the Acrobat installation to remove PDFMaker. See if MS Office applications launch and behave correctly?

Acrobat 9 is not working with Word 2010: why?

I cannot get Acrobat 9 to make a PDF document from Word documents made with Word 2010, either by 'Creat from file' in Acrobat or by using Acrobat PDF Maker in Word. This has happened before when I first used Word 2001, but a later version of Acrobat solved that problem. Is the same sort of thing happening with Office 2010? If not, what can I do.

print to the Adobe PDF printer if all else fails
Thank you for that; it's nice to know that Acrobat will eventually work with Word 14, though not yet. I've tried printing with the Adobe PDF printer, and it doesn't use the proper fonts either, so I'd be better saving as a PDF document from Word. But perhaps I'll get better results with saving to PS first.
Meanwhile, I'll treat Adobe's claim that with Acrobat 9 you can make PDF from any document with a large pinch of salt.

Mouse not working in Word 2010 and Outlook 2010

Hi
My setup is: Windows 7 Ultimate x64, Office pro 2010
I have a problem where my right click mouse og select text isn't working in Word and Outlook. My keyboard os working fine, and my mouse cursor moves fine, but if I try to select text with the mouse og rightclick to copy/paste something nothing happens. Its
driving me crazy.
I have searched the web and found some different solutions but none seems to work permanently.
One option is to use Internet Explorer Settings > advanced > Reset to default.
Another is to delete the Word / Data key from Registry editor
Now I can start Word and start typing in a single line...and it works... until I hit enter the first time. then the mouse isn't working again. the same thing happens in Outlook when writing an email.
I have tried running the Office 2010 repair tool with not effect.
Please help - this is driving me crazy
Best regards and feel free to ask you need me to clarify someting or test something.
Søren B

I have the same problem (Win 7, Office 2010).
Deleted the DATA folder. The mouse works a very short time before the problem reappears.
Renamed the OFFICE folder. The problem remains (no change).
I have no add-ons installed, and have scanned for viruses and malware without finding any. Everything else works fine.
I have done all available updates for both Windows and Office.
I have the exact same problem. I have also noticed that some of the keys do not function the same either. For instance I will get a " instead of an
'@' when I push 'shift' + '2'. I also get a slash or something instead of a '?'. My onenote never has this issue and other programs do not. If I copy and paste into word it copies fine. I end up having to shut down word and start
it back up again if I need to use the mouse on the document. I can use the ribbon fine but on the actual document the mouse stops working after a few seconds or up to a minute. I have run virus scans and everything is fine. This is really getting on my nerves. It
is hard to edit a paper when you can't use your mouse on the doc, especially when using pictures and needing to move them... or even select them.

Command F [find] function not working in Word 2011

It seems that my Command F function is not working properly...when I look for a term that I KNOW is in my document, sometimes it won't locate it. Sometimes it will only locate one instance of the word [in the sidebar] when the word actually appears multiple times in the document. And, if the word appears in my footnotes, the command F function will then only highlight the instances in which that word appears in the footnotes, but not in the main text [again, in the sidebar]. I've also noticed that the spotlight function does this as well [ie, I will use spotlight to search for word documents containing a certain term, and although I KNOW the term is in a certain document, spotlight will not identify that document as containing my search term].
These documents are a mix of ones that I created using Word 2011 and previous versions - the problem happens consistenly across all word files. And I'm not specifying any particular case for the terms (ie, I'm not searching for "Coffee" with a capital "C" and not getting any results because only "coffee" appears in my document).
I'm running Word 2011 on Lion OS. Please help - this is driving me insane.....

Sorry, this is the Office forum for Windows platform. Office for Mac related questions should really be posed in the following forums:

Macro not working in BEx Analyzer

Can you please explain why my Macro is not working?
We're on BI 7 with Excel 2007. I have done the following:
1) Open Workbook from BEx Analyzer and the result display on the worksheet. The was inserted in C10 and therefore, the result was display from C10 onwards.
2) I have created a Macro with the following code:
Sub Macro1()
' Macro1 Macro
    Range("C5").Select
    With Selection.Interior
        .Pattern = xlSolid
        .PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
        .Color = 65535
        .TintAndShade = 0
        .PatternTintAndShade = 0
    End With
End Sub
3) When click to run the Macro manually, I can see the color of C5 is changed.
4) Now I have include this Marcro in Workbook Setting ->Exits tab, Run Macro on Refresh. Here I enter my Marco name.
5) In Workbook Setting ->General tab, I also set the Refresh Workbook on Open option.
6) I have also set the Trust Center setting: select Trust access to the VBA project and Enable all macros.
7) Then I save the Workbook.
8) when I re-open the Workbook, the color of C5 is not change!!!
Can you please help.

Aglukas,
Thanks again. I understand the name of the Macro can be anything and this is how to create the Macro:
1) Run workbook, the query result display on the screen.
2) In Excel 2007, I click on Developer tab ->Macro.
3) Enter Macro name (Macro1) and click on Create button.
4) I have VB editor open with following:
Sub Macro1()
End Sub
5) So added the following code to Macro routine in VBA Module:
Sub Macro1()
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
Stop
.Activate
.Cells(15, 1).Interior.Color = RGB(220, 254, 250)
End With
End Sub
6) I then added the Macro1 to Workbook Setting ->Exit tab, and click on Add Macro button.
When I run/refresh the workbook, I didn't get into debug mode at all!!!
What is wrong in above steps?
Please advice, thanks.

What oracle version? Check the DB alert log files for information about the internal error. Other thing is RMAN may be getting confused with the 'CATALOG' tablespace with it being a reserved word in RMAN in generating the internal script - may be a bug.
See in the internal script:
skip tablespace USERS3,
USERS2,
CATALOG ;The internal script gets an error once it reaches CATALOG even though you've quoted it in the original script. For example:
RMAN> list copy of tablespace CATALOG;

DARI (Arabic) script does not work in WORD 2004

When I change to AFGHAN DARI in MS WORD I can type the characters (although as other discussions have shown KEYBOARD viewer does not work) BUT they are not joined properly in the words.
i.e. the same form of the character is used whether it is at the start, middle or end of the word. PATHETIC - how would you like to write all English in UPPERCASE??
MS WORD does the correct thing on Windows XP
Does anyone have any ideas - apart from throwing this new MacBook away?
Any Word processors for the MAC that work properly?
Please HELP!!

Does anyone have any ideas - apart from throwing this new MacBook away?
Yes, throw Word away. MS Office for Mac has no support for Arabic, Hebrew, Devanagari, etc.
All other word processors (except Appleworks) have better support for Arabic than Word does. Mellel is the best. See this note:

Alt + Tab macro not working for Sculpt Comfort Mouse in Windows 8.1

Hi,
I cant get a macro working in Keyboard and Mouse Centre for the Alt+Tab action. I've created the macro previously on windows 7 and all fine, but will not work on 8.1
Alt(press) delay(10ms) Tab delay(10ms) Alt(release)
I have a sculpt comfort mouse, though I don't think that is a culprit, as the macro itself does not work.
Alt+tab works fine on the keyboard, no problems at all.
Please help as this is spoiling my interactions with my OS, which I use almost all day most days.
Thanks,
Paul

Outlook 2003 Recipent Selection Not working on Word created emails

I have a user who when using word as his default editor, can see previously emails contacts but cannot select them. Selecting them just causes the select box to dissapear leaving the characters in the textbox.
He's set his default editor as outlook but the problem there is when he's typing long emails in a rich text format only the initial draft is sent rather than the entire email. I've read that changing the editor to word is a fix but with recipent selector
not working his outlook is pretty un-usable.
Anyone seen this before? He's running on windows 8.1 with office 2003.

Hello,
What's the difference between the permissions?
Can the users receive emails from OWA?
In addition, please make sure your Outlook 2007 has installed the latest update. And try to use
outlook/cleanips and check if it helps. See:
