Two problems in Word 2010

Hi,
When I start Word, it starts always with Document 2 in stead of Document 1. Why?
When I open a Word-attachment from an e-mail, Word starts with Document 2 and then  the attachment so I have always at least two documents when opening one attachment. Why is this?
Thnx for your help

Hi,
According to your two questions, I suppose that the Word automatically open two documents at the same time when you start. Because Word names blank document ( Document 1, Document 2....). Thus, please try to check how many instance
in task manage after we started the Word 2010.
If there are two instances of Word 2010, please try the following methods:
1. Start Word in safe mode, to do this, go to your Start screen in Windows 8 or click
Start >Run in Windows 7, and type Win/safe and press Enter to start.
If this helps, the issue may be caused by the add-ins. I recommend you disable them one by one and check them.
2. Repair the Office and check if it helps.
Go to Start Screen and type > Control > Now Click on Settings > Select Control Panel > Click on Programs and Features > Search for Office > Click Change > Choose Repair.
If there is only one instances of Word 2010, please try to rename
Normal.dotm file.
Type %appdata%\Microsoft\Templates in RUN dialog box and press Enter. It'll open Templates folder in Windows Explorer.
Look for Normal.dotm file in the folder. Rename it to
Normal.old
Re-open Word and it'll automatically create a new Normal.dotm file in Templates folder which will solve the issue.

  • Duplex printing problem in Word 2010 but NOT in Excel 2010

    At the risk of repeating an old question :
    I have  Windows 7 Pro, Office Professional 2010 and an HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus and two sided printing is a problem in Word.
    Excel prints in Duplex by selecting "Print on both sides / Flip pages on short edge".
    Word, though, with the exact same Setting, fails and the document is printed one two sheets of paper ... one side only.  Seems rather bizarre.
    Help would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Which Word 2010 version do you use? Please try the Word 2010 14.0.4760.1000 version(We may upgrade or downgrade the version by install or uninstall the patches).
    Next, we may try the workarounds which provide by other communicators, I copied here:
    Workaround1:
    File then Print
    Go ahead and select manual print on both sides
    Go to page setup, print options, and the advanced tab. Go all the way down and select "Print on the front of the sheet for duplex printing."
    After printing the first set, I was able to just turn it 180 degrees and it worked just fine.
    Workaround2:
    As a work around I found if I ignore Words "Settings" and instead go into my printer properties, select the Finishing Tab, and select "Print on Both Sides (Manually)", the document will duplex print correctly.  Requires 5 steps instead of 3

  • Adobe 9 Pro PROBLEM with Word 2010

    I upgradedd to Office 2010 Suite,  Purchased Adobe 9 Pro
    and installed it after I installed Office 2010.  Adobe does not show in the
    Word 2010 ribbon.  Called ADOBE they say they do not support ADOBE 9 and Office 2010.  HELP

    We are a training institution using the latest Microsoft Office Pro (2010) and Creative Suite Design Premium (CS5) suites.
    Pdfmaker has been a key part of the PDF Basics syllabus for some time and to have to wait till the end of 2011 for a solution (Creative Suite 6?) is a large inconvenience.
    Given that Adobe are still selling Acrobat 9 as a “current” product as part of the suites, I believe that a free upgade to Acrobat 9.xx that has the functionallity restored should be in order, rather than being told that “ps and by the way … the product that you bought TODAY doesn’t work and possibly never will unless you upgrade”!
    Spoke to Adobe customer support about this yesterday and their response was to downgrade to Office 2007 if pdfmaker is that important – a fairly arrogant approach.
    This is an Adobe problem, not Microsoft, as they are the 3rd party providing the plug-in. (Adobe are quick to point this out when it comes to Photoshop plug-ins.)
    As we advertise using the packaged suites upgrading an individual product outside of the automatic updates is not an option.

  • Problem converting word 2010 Document

    I am having a problem converting a Word 2010 document using Live
    Cycle Designer ES2. I get the following
    error msg:
    Word (version XP onwards) could not be found
    Word 2010 is installed.

    I have just run into this issue myself.  At first I thought it might be that LiveCycle is not yet fully compatible with Office 2010 but after doing some googling it seems there are plenty of folks out there successfully converting Word 2010 documents to PDF.
    As a temporary workaround, you could try a copy of an earlier version of Word should one be available to you.
    If I'm able to find a solution to the issue, I'll let you know promptly.

  • Hebrew typing problem in Word 2010 and 2013 in Windows 7 64bit

    Hello,
    When I am trying in Word (2010 and 2013 32bit installation) to edit a line (inserting a new word for instance in the middle of the line) or start a new line in RTL or LTR Hebrew paragraph I must first type the SPACE char and then to type any other letter. When
    I try firs to type a regular letter it is not typed.
    It happens only if the Word is installed on a Windows 7 professional 64bit version on my HP 8570p laptop. I formatted the laptop and installed the same OS but 32bit, installed the Office 2010 and the Word works perfect in any language. I formatted the Laptop
    again, re-installed again the 64bit OS, installed the Office 2010 again and same symptom - cant type Hebrew letters if not starting with SPACE. If I try to edit the same paragraph with English letters it works OK. When I start a new line with English letters
    it works OK. It seem that this symptom happens when the type direction is right-to-left (after ALT-right SHIFT stroke).
    This symptom is only in Word. In PowerPoint, in Excel or any other Office application it works fine.
    When using Word 365 (not installed localy even I have a local Word 2013 installation) the Hebrew typing is working fine.
    I didn't change the default setting options of the Word not after installing the 32bit OS nor the 64bit OS.
    I prefer to use the 64bit OS and not the 32bit OS so I do not consider moving to 32bit OS.

  • Column break problem in word 2010

    Hi,
    I have a 2 column document. Some how i feel it has inserted a column break in the middle of page 7 of my word document which consists of 12 pages. It is a reviewed document & tracking is also going on and 'Track Changes: On' message is also visible on
    my progress bar. On page 7 i have a figure also which is one column wide. The text above this figure goes on to next column after 9th line. There is still a 3 line gap between my text & figure. But its moving the text to next column. After the figure it
    shows me the text which should come after the moved text. Please guide me how to fix this problem.

  • Word 2010 - Extra Space Around Checkbox Content Controls - only on some computers

    I am experiencing a problem with Word 2010 adding extra above/below spacing on content control checkboxes, but only on some of our computers. We have a template we use that is the same file for our network. On some of the computers in our office however,
    we get extra spacing what can not be removed.  
    I am at a lose to fix this and have been trying for about 3 weeks. The settings are the same on all the computers. The user can switch to another computer and the form will open correctly, but if they move back to their workstation and try to reopen it there
    the double spacing returns - again only for the checkbox content controls. 
    Attached are two images - Correct formatting, and then what happens on some of the computers. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. 
    Can't post links due to account not verified
    Correct Formating Image - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzORWKV0f6tjWjdaTGxTd0tWeUk/view?usp=sharing
    Extra Space Added on Some Comptuers Image - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzORWKV0f6tjOU8wYXp0d1ZZVDA/view?usp=sharing

    Some issues worth noting:
    1. Word uses information returned by the active printer driver to manage a document's layout. This can result in line spacing, text-wrapping, and so on varying from one PC to the next - or even on the same PC when switching to a printer that uses a different
    driver.
    2. Differences in font versions (or the use of a font that is available on one PC and not another) can result in line spacing, text-wrapping, and so on varying from one PC to the next.
    3. Differences in Word version (or even update state) may result in line spacing, text-wrapping, and so on varying from one PC to the next.
    4. Your document that displays the extra spacing has Word's formatting display switched on - even that can change the appearance if the document contains hidden content.
    5. Various Word options can also affect line spacing, text-wrapping, and so on. These include having Word configured to 'optimize character positioning for layout rather than readability', 'scale content for A4 or 8.5x11" paper sizes' and, perhaps,
    the use of draft print quality.
    Obviously, there are multiple possibilities to work through, ensuring all PCs & printer configurations are the same. That said, your use of tables allows you the option of setting the row heights to 'exact' measurements, so they won't expand as they
    evidently now can. You can also try setting the paragraph line spacings and before/after spacings to precise numbers of points, for example, so they don't auto-adjust.
    Cheers

  • Font color against dark font backgrounds changing to white in Word 2010

    Hello.  I am a long-time Word and VBA user and have been experiencing a problem with Word 2010 wherein font colors against a dark font background color always appear, and print, as if they had been set to white.  By contrast, Word 2007 would retain
    whatever font color was set for each character (whether through the standard user interface or VBA).  Has anyone else run into this problem?  Is there a fix for it?  Thanks.

    Thanks for your response, Eugene.
    It's x86.
    I actually had set up an image of a comparison of Word 2007 vs. Word 2010, but when I've tried to include it here, a message comes up that says "Body text cannot contain images or links until we are able to verify your account."
    I had previously been warned that I needed to provide a phone message to "verify" my account.  I don't like giving out my phone number when it's not relevant to what I'm doing.  I'll explore to see if there are other options where I don't have
    to provide private information in order to be able to post images in my messages in this forum.  (I'm not up to any harm here!)  I do think the image that I set up would be very helpful to share; it shows clearly the difference in how Word 2007 vs.
    Word 2010 treat font/text color against dark font/text backgrounds.

  • Problem with Office Word 2010 Print Settings not saving

    Office Pro Plus 2010 on XP2 x86
    I've installed it on a couple of test systems to test our custom macros and vsto ribbons. They all seem to work OK, except for one thing.
    The new File>Print screen - it does not remember it's settings. For example, in Word, go to the File>Print screen:
    Change Collated to Uncollated and Print.
    Exit Word and go back into Word.
    Uncollated has changed back to Collated.
    Now try the old style print dialogue (in Word 2010):
    (Create a macro and run it)
    Sub OldPrintDialog()
    Dialogs(wdDialogFilePrint).Show
    End Sub
    Tick\Untick Collate and print.
    Exit Word and go back in.
    Look at the old Print Dialogue and it has remembered it's setting.
    It looks like MS have forgotten to put code in that controls this. It works OK in Word 2000\2002\2003\2007... and will to be a problem for some of our computers when doing scripted printing, e.g. two
    copies of a 3 page invoice prints from the wrong trays! It should print 1\1, 2\2, 3\3, but prints 1\2\3, 1\2\3.
    And I've tried several different drivers and printers - they all behave the same...
    I need to set the collate option permanently to "Uncollated".
    Where is this setting stored, or is it a bug?
    Thanks
    G
    EDIT (20110303 16:18): Just took Office 2010 off the invoicing test system and put Office 2003 on - and our invoices print correctly!

    Hi,
    To specify the settings, follow these steps :
    1.      
    Start Word and open the document you want to change.
    2.      
    Click the Paper tab, you can do that according to the version of MS Office that you are using.
    3.      
    Under Paper, click the paper size you want.
    4.      
    If you want to change the page orientation of the document or its page margins, click the Margins tab.
    5.      
    Select the desired options.
    6.      
    To use the paper size specified in step 4 for only the active section of the document, click Selected text.
    7.      
    Click OK.
    Sincerely,
    Harry

  • Labview 2013 report generation toolkit word 2010 insert table problem

    Hi,
    I am currently evaluating LV2013 with respect to the report generation toolkit for use with word 2010. My Vi/program won't insert the correct table and gives me an error message. see below:-
    Exception occured in Microsoft Word: The requested member of the collection does not exist.Help Path is wdmain11.chm and context 25421 in NI_ReportGenerationToolkit.lvlib:Word_Insert_Table​.vi->NI_Word.lvclass:Append Text Table to Report.vi->Word Table save.vi
    I have since run the following word example.vi provided by NI within LV2013 office examples:- Growable table.vi. this gives me the same error!
    Exception occured in Microsoft Word: The requested member of the collection does not exist.Help Path is wdmain11.chm and context 25421 in NI_ReportGenerationToolkit.lvlib:Word_Insert_Table​.vi->NI_Word.lvclass:Append Text Table to Report.vi->Growable table.vi
    It would seem that regardless of my own Vi there is a fundamental problem in the office example vi.
    I have found examples of a similar problem in LV2011/2012 but the work around code doesn't seem to match the LV2013 vi's code for a direct replacement.
    Can anyone help/shed some light on this? 
    Thanks in advance,
    Dan.

    Because the upgrade of Word from 2007 to 2010 I needed to upgrade an existing application from LabVIEW 2009 to 2013. This didn't work because of the insert table error. I discovered that the problem is the vi called "Word_Insert_Table.vi" located in the ..Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2013\vi.lib\addons\_office\_wordsub.llb. There is a "Cut" command implemented, this command removes the created cell instead of clearing it. Therefore the table will be filled half and then returnes with an error. I have removed this command. I have posted the changed vi (LV 2013).

    Hi Dave,
    Maurice's thread was locked because he is using Office 2010 Beta, and his post is in the forum for Office Beta, since the Beta is past due, the whole forum is locked.
    Let's go back to your question.
    Have you installed the Office 2010 Service Pack 1? The service pack fixes many issues, you should try if you haven't.
    Download
    the Microsoft Office 2010 Service Pack 1 64-bit package now.
    I may to metion is that all I know the Office 2010 64-bit will work smoothly with Windows 7 64-bit, cause I'm using it for my daily work.
    So, the problem you met with mostly caused by the 3rd-party add-ins/services.
    Have you tried to open the document by holding the Ctrl key? This will open the document in safe mode, if you are able to do so, this will help us to narrow down the root cause.
    If it will crash even when you start it in safe mode, let's try to run a clean boot to check this issue. In a clean boot, lots of service will be disabled, if we wouldn't get problem in a clean boot, then we can enable the service little by little, then
    we can find out which service might cause this issue.
    For a detail instruction, you can refer to this kb:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
    Let me know the result, any questions, feel free to let me know.

    Hello,
    I have replicated and confirmed the problem with LabVIEW 2010, Report Generation Toolkit 2010 and Word 2010.  I have filed this to R&D under CAR ID #257414.  As a workaround you can manually set each cell using Word Edit Cell.vi.  I have attached a simplified representation of this unexpected behavior as well as the workaround.  Hopefully this helps everyone out!

  • Problems with hyperlink when converting .docx to .pdf using Word 2010

    I have a Word 2010 .docx document that has a link to a web site in it. The link works fine in Word, but does not work after the conversion to PDF. I am using the Acrobat add on in Word to create the PDF.
    There is a pound sign ( # ) in the Word doc hyperlink and it is being changed to a percent sign ( % ) during the conversion to PDF. Any suggestions?

    I will report the bug. I had read about some other problems with .docx files so I saved the .docx to .doc and then converted but I got the same results.
    Thanks for the feedback.

  • The bullet list, numbered list and the normal text is not converting when I am converting from RH 9 to MS Word 2010

    Hi all,
    Greetings for the day
    I am created a new CSS in Robohelp 9. I have also created a new template in Word 2010. The style sets for different information elements like (Heading, bullets, body text, ) are more or less same between the CSS and the new templates. I am also able to map the .css styles to Word template when I am converting from RH to Word as I am getting the necessary option in the drop-down list.
    However, when the output is generated, the bullet, the numbered list and the body text is not converting at all. The body text works sometimes. However, the numbered list and bullet list is coming out as images.
    If anybody knows the solution, I can share the .css and Word template.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
