Opening Word Documents in different ways - 'Open as' instead of 'Save as'.

I would like to combine several documents into one document. For example, I want to combine Document A, B & C. The document will not be A then B then C, more A,B,C,A,B,C,A,C,A,B.
What I would like to do then is to be able to open only the A parts as one document, or the B parts as another and so on.
Is there anyway in which this can be done?
All help gratefully received!

"in the different 'formats'." Different order? or is there more to it than the order?
Would AutoText meet your needs? If not, why not?
You can save in one template AutoText entries for A, B and C. This template will have no text showing but will contain the saved AutoText.
Then, you can create documents based on the template that have AutoText fields calling on the entries for A B and C in whatever order you want. Save those documents. Note, AutoText fields, not just inserted AutoText.
To change B in all documents, redefine the AutoText entry for B in the template. Then open the documents and Ctrl+A followed by F9 to update the AutoText fields.
If you are sending these outside your own computer, you would want to unlink the fields after updating. The shortcut for that is Ctrl+A followed by Ctrl+Shift+F9.

HOW TO OPEN WORD DOCUMENT FROM JAVA???

hi everyone! Can you please help me to come with this problem? Let me to set my main target I want to achieve:
1) In my program user should first press a button;
2) Then already created Word Document should be opened (I DO NOT NEED to open that Word Document in Java or something like JField). Just simply it should be opened as a Microsoft Word Document.
I DO NEED YOUR HELP! PLEASE HELP ME....!

Running cmd using the exec is also a windows only solution, there is no "more" or "less" it that solution compared to the rundll.
Since word is a windows format its pretty obvious that the application is ran under windows platform.
If you are running on a different platform (maybe using open office you can open word documents, i'm not sure) you might want to use the JDIC library (https://jdic.dev.java.net/) which enables you to open/edit/browse such files using the default viewer/editor/browser of the system you are working on.
Look at the org.jdesktop.jdic.desktop.Desktop object for these methods.
You can also find the Desktop object in J2SE6 but its still in beta.

How are you displaying your Word document, have you achieved that already?

How to restrict Firefox to open word document in browser window with href

How to restrict firefox to open word document from a website link to open in the browser window, instead it should open in native program.
1.I have tried other website, and have clicked on similar links they are opening word document correctly in native program
2. MS word document from one specific site is opening in browser causing junk character in place of word document.
Could you please help on this.

Thanks for your response...

I have some questions related to this?

Credential Pop up while opening word document in SharePoint 2013

Hi
When I open office documents from SharePoint library, it is asking for credentials. Even if I put my credentials, pop up window will not go away. I have IE 11 and SharePoint 2013.
I have put this site in trusted site zone. User Authentication - Automatic logon with current user name and password.
I have clicked on Remember my credentials. I can see my saved credentials in credential manager.
The thing is, I was able to open word document without asking for password before. But recently, I have changed IE settings to be default level for some other reason, and since then it is asking me for credentials.
I looked online so many articles, but nothing has helped me yet.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Cameron
Thanks for your response. Yesterday night, when I tried to open documents from sharepoint site from my home, it didn't ask me for credentials. I was using same laptop which I used in the office.
Again, today in the office, It started asking for credentials when I open office document.
The only difference is internet connection is different between my home and the office.
Not sure what could be the issue.
Thanks

Cannot open Word document attachment in mail before sending.

Cannot open Word document attachment in mail before sending.
In Snow Leopard Mail 4, (Version 4.0 (1075/1075.2)) if I attach a word document to a message and, BEFORE sending the message, I double click the attached document to open it, to make sure it is the right one, I get the error "Mail was unable to save the attachment “Test.doc” to disk. Verify that your downloads folder exists and is writable."
The attachment is mailed correctly and arrives at the destination, but the ability to verify an attached document before sending it is essential. This has worked fine in all previous editions of OS X.
Any ideas?
Thanks - Lawrence

I have same problem. I've done the following testing to pinpoint where the problem lies and there are clues (see below):
1. My machine had SnowLeopard installed "fresh" (i.e. disk reformat and installed cleanly)
2. I have a comparison machine running Leopard (10.5.6) - essentially a mirror but with different OS
3. Problem is triggered when creating new email, with a MS Word .doc attachment added. If you attempt to open the attached file in the mail (not yet sent) it produces the error message "unable to save file XXX.doc to disk. Verify that your downloads folder exists and is writeable"
4.However, once the mail is sent, the recipient can open the attachment without problems.
5. I have run Disk Utility and all permissions are correct. My downloads folder exists.
6. The problem is not present in Leopard (mirror machine other than OS)
7. I have uninstalled and reinstalled MS Office. Problem still present
8. I have deleted and recreated the preference files for both MS Office and for Mail. Problem still present.
And finally...
9.The problem is confined to .doc files.It works fine for .pdf, .ods AND even for Microsoft .xls files.
So it may be a MS Word problem triggered by Snow Leopard?
Apple: if you can confirm this is a Microsoft problem it may be able to be reported to them as a compatibility issue?
Hope this helps.

Cannot Open Word Documents on Desktop

I cannot open word docs from desktop. We use Folder Redirection for the desktop and documents folders, but I don't have issues with excel or pdf files, and I'm able to open word documents from start menu.
here is the error I'm getting servername\RedirectedFolders\"username"\Desktop\file.
cannot be found. Check your spelling, or try a different path.

Hi,
Did this issue occur on all directed Word documents or some? Could you open the local Word document?
Please make sure this file is indeed exists in that path.
If it is, stop folder redirection, directly access the folder use UNC path for test.
If it works fine, please redirect again to confirm the issue.

I cannot simply open Word documents. I am forced to save them in order to view them.

In firefox, IE, and chrome, I try to open Word documents and am forced to save them in order to view them. I do not get the box that asks whether I want to save or open (and yes, I have the option to always ask checked in my settings). When I find the document in my folders, it tells me I'm in protected view when viewing my documents. This has only started recently. The only thing new I've done to the computer recently is update firefox. However, this problem is occurring in all my browsers.
(I do not have this problem opening other files, like PDF. I still get the option to open or save with files other than Word documents.)
I have run my Sophos antivirus and have found nothing. I have suspected rookit, but hope it is less serious.
I also do not wish to download any new programs in order to fix this problem.
Thank you!

Try upgrading to the most recent version of Firefox.
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
Please report back soon.
So you don't receive any popup window asking you to save or view the document? The download just begins all by itself.
<b>NOTE: </b>Even if you select to only view the document, since Firefox has no built in Word viewer, you'll end up downloading it anyway. The only difference is that it will be downloaded into the temporary memory of your computer.

HT1338 My mac is becoming too slow. It takes long to open word documents, pdf files or excel documents or even safari. Can anybody suggest something? I have tried to reduce the number of open applications, but does not seem to work.

Hi ...
Checked to see how much free space there is on the startup disk lately?
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
Freeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac GuidesFreeing Up Hard Disk Space - Mac Guides
If disk space is not the issue, booting in Safe Mode deletes system caches that may help.
A Safe Mode boot takes longer then a normal boot so be patient.
Once you see the Desktop, click the Apple menu icon top left corner of the screen.
From the drop down menu click Restart.
See if that makes a difference ...

Got errors when trying to open word document with Office Web App Server and customized WOPI host

I am configuring the Office Web App Server with our ASP.NET MVC WOPI host based on this example. https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/office/Building-an-Office-Web-f98650d6. While both the OWA server and WOPI server has been set up and I can use Excel and PowerPoint
app to open and edit xls and ppt file now, there are problems opening word documents no matter I enable or disable the editing function of OWA server.
When I open a word document while enabling editing I got this error:
If I disable editing I got this message:
I have tried several file so I thought it is not the files' problem. Also I didn't find any exception in the log of OWA server.

Hi Gary Jiang,
Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.

Opening Word documents with Appleworks

I often receive Word documents as email attachments (though my hotmail account). I can download these Word documents to my desktop but when I click on them to open them I get an offer to purchase MS Word (which I do not have). I would like to be able to simply open the Word documents with Apple works--and I am hoping I can just click on them and have that happen automatically. But it doesn't. I have tried opening Appleworks and going into the wordprocessing program and then opening the Word document through that, but it only is successful part of the time. What can I do? I would like to have these Word douments open automatically in Appleworks but every time I click on them (i.e., their icon on my desktop) I get that advertisement from Microsoft asking me to buy Word. Is this ad blocking a normal function of Appleworks that would otherwise allow me to open Word documents with a click? And in any case, how can I proceed?

The ad for Word is almost certainly being tacked on through or at Hotmail (taglines or adware from Hotmail? Hoodathunk .....) ; it sure isn't coming from AppleWorks or from anything on your own system, unless you have that demo copy of Office still lurking somewhere. I suppose it could come from that, somehow.
Assuming you can get a clean attachment downloaded to your Desktop from Hotmail, the procedure for having what you want to happen automatically is fairly straightforward and, really, has nothing at all to do with Appleworks. Try the following:
--> Select (highlight) one of those downloaded .doc files from Word, then
--> use the Finder's Get Info command (⌘-I). In the window which appears,
--> see the "Open with" section, and set it to AppleWorks.

Cannot open Word document files in a Portfolio

I have set up a portfolio with multiple file types. I can open Excel and Power Point files within the portfolio without a problem. When I try to open Word documents it tells me that "Acrobat cannot open this file attachment because your pdf file attachment settings do not allow for this file type to be opened. I went into preferances and checked to see if the box was checked in "trust manager" to allow files other than pdf to opened. It is checked but I am still unable to open word documents in the portfolio for some reason.

Acrobat cannot open Word files. Have you tried opening the files from within Word? If so, most probably you have a file association problem.

Opening word documents

I was told when I purchased iWork last week that I would be able to open word documents that were sent to me via email. How can I do that?

maralyala,
Note that Dennis' solution will result in ALL Word files opening in Pages, as he says.
If you only want to open the occasional Word files in Pages, right-click or command-click on the file and choose "Open With" from the contextual menu that pops up next to the document. Select Pages.app from the list. If Pages.app is not on the list, click on 'Other' and scroll to Pages.app in your Applications folder.
You can do this on the icon of the Word file that appears in your email or after saving the Word file to your Mac.
Good luck,
Terry

Ipad won't open Word documents without .doc appended

My ipad won't open word documents attached to emails that don't have .doc appended, however my iphone does this flawlessly. Is this normal?

Mine won't either. I was wondering if it had something to do with installing the pages app. My attachments with .doc are showing as pages docs.
