Microsoft Word configuration

Hello,
I installed SAP Solution Manager 4.0 but every time I try to display/edit a MS Word or Excel Document I get the error:
- THE DOCUMENT CANNOT BE EDITED or
- THE DOCUMENT CANNOT BE DISPLAYED
If I try to display/edit TXT documents, the integrated SAP text editor starts and everything works fine.
Are there Microsoft Word or Excel configuration settings in the Solution Manager?
Is it necessary to have MS Office installed on the SAP Server?
Thanks,
Manuel

  • File locking with OSX Server & Microsoft Word

    We have a small office LAN based on a Airport Extreme bases station. Periodically Microsoft Word reports a break in connection to the shared folder where we store documents to get disconnected. When that happens and the user reconnects to the share, the user gets the file read-only message for the Word document that was open at the time.
    I have found that in order to clear the read-only flag, I have to restart the server and open the Word file on the server with the ID of the user who was editing the file on the remote computer. Only that seems to clear the file locking that causes the file to be read-only.
    I cannot figure out a less drastic way to release the lock file. I don't see any hidden temp files in the same folder as the document that is locked for editing found by ls -a or in the root direction of the shared folder in the .TemporaryItems/folders.<UID> that seems to be holding the lock.
    I have run chflags nouchg <Word file> from Terminal, but that seems to have no effect either. I also used xattr to see if there were any locks held that way, but I don't see anything that way either.
    File sharing to Macs only, which are configured just to use AFP through OSX Server.
    Does anyone understand how the file locks of Word documents can be released directly with out restarting the server?
    I should add that the underlying problems seems to be WiFi related. The behavior is that the WiFi connection seems to break long enough that the shared volumes disconnects. Outlook also causes a break. This behavior seems to have started with 10.9 and the purchase of new Retina Display MacBook Pros. I turned off AppNap on the Office applications but that is not clearly helpful. I also have been told the problem seems more likely to occur when Word is open in the background and another program like Outlook is in the foreground.
    Any suggestions appreciated.

    Apple write an operating system and also produce file sharing software as part of that to be used as a file server. Apple provide documentation for third-party software developers on how they should write software to work with Apple's software and also give those developers early access to new versions so those third-party developers can test and if needed make adjustments and issue updates to cope with any Apple changes.
    Some third-party developers are good at dealing with this, some are bad, and some totally ignore what Apple does and give the impression they don't care if their product works properly or not. I think we can all judge where Microsoft sits.
    It appears Microsoft have never paid any attention in particular to how Apple expect file-locking to be handled when accessing files on a Mac server. There have been problems for years and years and years with Office. Two other problems I have seen which seem different to yours but probably related are -
    With Office documents it is supposed to be possible for more than one person to edit the same file at the same time, consider it a miracle if this actually works
    With Office in particular Word, there is an auto-save function, unfortunately the way this seems to be implemented it seems that Word creates a new temporary file each time it auto-saves the document and keeps all the previous temporary files open still, this eventually means potentially over a hundred temporary files are open - just for one Word document and you can then hit a limit on the total number of files you are allowed to have open at the same time. At this point further auto-saves fail, and you also encounter great difficulty doing a real full save of the document.
    I do not hold Apple completely blameless over this issue, it is likely their file-locking implementations change too often, and have inadequate documentation, however even considering this a company the size of Microsoft with the amount of sales (and profit) they derive from Office for the Mac has no excuses at all for failing to put the effort in to resolve any such clearly critical problems.
    We could go on and on about other areas where Microsoft don't play by the (software) rules. Even in Windows Office does not obey the standard print dialog rules Microsoft specified themselves!
    Unfortunately not only is Office for Mac upgraded infrequently, but even when new paid for upgrades are released Microsoft have a history of still not fixing bugs. It goes without saying that a mere free update is even less likely to actually fix a bug, typically such free updates only address security issues. The next version of Office is going to be Office for Mac 2014 see http://www.macworld.com/article/2106643/microsoft-will-release-a-new-version-of- office-for-mac-this-year.html
    One area I confidently predict Microsoft not to resolve in Office for Mac 2014 is that fact that Word for Mac still does not support right-to-left languages like Hebrew and Arabic. This is despite the fact that OS X itself has supported this for years and years, and despite the fact other Mac programs support this including the free TextEdit and Pages - both of which can read Word files. Some people may remember that at one point the Israeli Government temporarily banned all Microsoft software over this issue. See http://apple-beta.slashdot.org/story/03/10/15/2215249/israeli-government-suspend s-microsoft-contracts This issue goes back over TEN years!!
    I note that Microsoft has now taken their OfficeForMac blog offline, probably due to the weight of criticisms. I would not say it is due to out-right anti-Microsoft hate, that war ended long ago. We just want products that work. I myself do use Microsoft products, even at home - where they are the best solution, so I use Microsoft Media Center for example. Sadly this is now being neglected by Microsoft.

  • Whenever I try to open a certain document on Microsoft word it keeps saying it is unable to find the document. How do I find it?

    I typed a 10 page paper. And when I went to submit it to my class online the document was grey and it had no information and it wouldn't let me open it; like it was corrupted. When I do click on it, it says that Microsoft Word is unable to find my document.
    When I click would you like to locate it yourself, it brings me to all my documents but it is no where to be found on my computer. How do I retrieve it? 

    Hi Jessica,
    From where did you open the file for editing originally? Have you saved it properly before you submit it?
    As Paul mentioned above, in some cases, corrupted documents are rarely recoverable. Do you have a backup of that file? Or elaborate a little bit about your situation for further assistance.

  • How to show content from microsoft word and pdf on a page

    Hi,
    I have a microsoft word file stored in content repository and I want to show it in web page. When I drag and drop it using content presenter it shows file as a link with some extra details like created by, last modified by etc. I want content to appear in UI page itself. Content of document should get converted to html at runtime and then appear in UI. Is it possible?
    Thanks
    Sanjeev

    Sanjeev,
    I see you have as similar requirement you posted in the thread here :
    Skipping ucm login form when showing content on webcenter application.
    InBound Refinery (IBR) would be the easiest way to accomplish this though.
    Once you have IBR installed and configured (you need to pick what formats need to be converted in the refinery, and in your case, choose MS Office formats),
    You can use the document viewer taskflow to render PDF versions of your Word/Excel or PDF documents on a webcenter page. There is little to no setup required for this, beyond configuring IBR (but configuring IBR is fairly involved) and selecting what MIME types you want IBR to process.
    Another thing to watch out for if you are using Spaces is, make sure you set the context root for UCM properly though EnterpriseManger.
    Dynamic Converter can also be used to get similar results. You mention that you are using an Iframe, that means the client is making a request to UCM directly, and to avoid re-authenticating there, you should have SSO enabled. With Dynamic converter, you can use a URL of the form :
    http:// +<host>:<port>+ / +<context_root>+ /idcplg?IdcService=GET_DYNAMIC_CONVERSION&dDocName= +<docID>+ &RevisionSelectionMethod=LatestReleased
    To get an HTML rendition of that document.
    Hope it helps !

    Hello Allan,
    It looks like that functionality is not included within the Report Generation Toolkit.  It is possible to produce the desired behavior through ActiveX commands.  I was able to create some sample code that successfully inserted a multipage RTF file into a report.  I did this by using the Word._Document reference to generate a Word.Range reference.  The Range reference has an InsertFile method.  This seems to input the file at the proper location.
    Could you give this a try and let me know how it goes?
    Also, just so you know, you are using an unsupported configuration of MS Office and LabVIEW.  Most of the functionality should work, but there might be some glitches.

    I got this message when trying to use Excel 2003. I went to Microsoft's web site's community and entered the error message that you got. There was a solution offered that worked for me although I cannot remember now what it was. You might also try Microsoft's knowledge base for any possible answers for this problem. IMHO, I believe this is an Office 2003 problem and not an Acrobat problem.
    I usually find the answers to problems such as these on Microsoft's web site. Good luck.

  • Custom Metadata for Microsoft Word

    Since Microsoft Word has a limited property/metadata fields and there is no budget to purchase a document management system, I am thinking of storing custom metadata fields in a XML file or a database.
    Can Ultra Search be configured to search the Word documents by full-text and metadata fields? If so, how?

    You should start by downloading the Acrobat SDK and building the sample plugins.  This is C/C++, there is no support for .NET.
    Next you will need to read the relevant section of ISO 32000-1:2008 (the PDF standard) or a book such as “Developing with PDF” (from O’Reilly).  This is required to understand how the PDF file format and objects work.
    Finally, you can then start looking at the SDK documentation around the Cos and PD layers to apply to what you need to do.

  • Microsoft word 2008 slow save with iMac 2009 and yosemite

    I have microsoft word running on 4 different iMacs, all using Yosemite.  My 2008 iMac 2009 iMac  and 2014 retina display iMac all save word docs quickly.  My 2011 iMac saves word docx and word doc documents slowly.   All machines are basically the same.  Memory is not the issue.  I am running same updated version of word 2008 in same configuration.  I reinstalled word on 2011 slow save iMac to no avail.  problem started after upgraded to yosemite.  i have 12 gigs of ram as i thought ram was issue.  Any thoughts welcome. Are others noticing same problem?

    There has been a better and free alternative to old versions of MS Word and MS Office since forever. Apache OpenOffice 4.1.1 is the latest version of a free and complete All-In-One document processor, spreadsheet, drawing, presentation, database, & formula software, found here: http://www.openoffice.org
    It also reads, writes and translates MS Word, saves in many formats, and is pretty easy to use. It's entirely modern and compatible with all the latest Mac operating systems. Good luck.

  • PDF file showing Microsoft Word icon in library

    Hello all, 
    I've come across a weird issue in a Sharepoint 2010 library. We have a library that contains both WORD documents and PDF files. We have a custom functionality in our implementation that converts the WORD documents to PDF. For one specific document, after
    the WORD document was converted to PDF, the converted PDF is still showing the microsoft word icon under document type.
    As you can see, the document is clearly a PDF, but it's showing the Word icon. If I click on the document, it opens up as a PDF. Every other PDF document in the library is showing the correct PDF icon except for this one, so it's not an overall icon issue. 
    Anybody have any ideas on this? Is this something that can be edited for specific files? If not, does anybody have any idea what can cause this?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Perform below step for PDF Icon in library.
     Configure PDF Icon

  • Microsoft Word- printing a books?

    I can't seem to figure out to get my Microsoft word to print a book. On a Windows PC, there is the option to print a document in booklet form, where the pages are doubled and you can print entire books this way.
    i see a lot of questions about Aperture in relation to book printing, but I don't want to pay for printing my books nor do I want to have to save it in PDF. What a giant pain. Am I just too daft to find the option for printing bookfolds in Microsoft Word or was Apple being a greedy monopolizing cretin by removing that option and forcing us to buy Aperture?
    P.S. If anyone has any freeware that doesn't require PDF conversion and is simple, please do tell. Thanks.

    Office comes with extensive help. I suggest you take the time to look in the help files for the answer. Word is quite capable of printing in book form but your document layout needs to be properly configured.

  • Word 2013 crashing opening Microsoft Word 97-2003 Document

    Hi
    I am having a major problem with a large number of Word docs which have been copied to my file server. The docs are in Microsoft Word 97 – 2003 format and open fine with Office 2007. I recently rolled out Office 2013 to a department. When they try and open
    these docs by double clicking the file, the Word splash screen with status "Starting..." opens with animated dots but stays in this state. I have left this for over 10 minutes but it doesn’t open. I end up having to close the splash screen using
    the top right corner cross but if I check in task manager the task remains eating up 25-30% of the CPU - I have to kill the task from here. I have tested this locally and in RDS where majority of users work from hosted office sessions and the problem is evident
    in both. The major problem is that RDS server CPU can reach 100% if a couple of users run into the problem.
    Going back to the issue. If I open up a blank instance of Word 2013 first and go File - Open and browse to the file, if I choose “Open and Repair” the file opens with “Errors detected”:
    "Drawn Objects and Text Boxes 1"
    If I select "go to" it goes to the Footer/headers - There is nothing in the header/footer that looks like it is causing an issue. If I now save the file either as 2003 or docx and close, the next time I try and open (double click) the file opens
    in compatibility mode or normal mode no problem. It seems strange Word is not able to automatically open/detect and repair anything it doesn’t like.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can work around this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Does this happen to all 97-2003 Word files?
    Word 2013 now has lots of updates compared with earlier version of Word, lots of features have been updated. Use Word 2013 to open documents created in earlier versions of Word (Word 97-2003 format), you will probably encounter unexpected problems,
    expecially for those heavily formatted files.
    We would suggest you to convert your document to the Word 2013 file format, then you will be able to access the new and enhanced features in Word 2013.

    Hi,
    Do you mean the Calendar template in Word when you click File > New? If so, I'm afraid there is no build-in template which meets the request in Microsoft Word. I've found a template for Excel, but nothing for Word.
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/templates/any-year-calendar-with-holidays-TC104014201.aspx
    You may need to find some third-party templates to achieve the goal.
