Using Overtype in Word

How do I activate "overtype" in word? I cannot insert lines and then type on them as I do on a PC.

"word"? What "word" would that be? MS Word X? MS Word 2004? MS Word 2008? MS Word 2011? AbiWord? WordService? Word Yo? Global Word? The Word?…
How do I activate "overtype"
In the highly unlikely event you're asking about MS Word 2008 or 2011, Overtype mode is disabled by default. You need to enable it in Preferences, or customise a menu, keyboard shortcut, or toolbar. This hint

  • Can you help me understand the use of the word POSITION in TR and CFM?

    Hi,
    I am trying to have a view of typical BI reports in TR and TM/CFM so through my research I came to the following link:.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/62/08193c38f98e1ce10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
    My problem on this link and other postings on this site seem to be the same. Can you help me understand the use of the word POSITIONS in these context:
    1. Our client has asked for financial transaction reports in BW, such as position of Borrowings, Investments and Hedge Operations (TM data).
    2. I have a requirement on, some reports related to Money Market (Fixed Term Deposits, Deposits at Notice) something on FSCM-Treasury and Risk Manager. These reports will be similar to that of Loans, i.e. Position statement, flow statement, etc.
    3. The set of position values for a single position or a limited amount of positions can be reported by transactions TPM12 and TPM13 in R3.
    4. 0CFM_C10 (Financial Positions Cube)
    Do you have some simple report outputs to help clarify how the word POSITION is used in such environments?
    Thanks

    If I future buy 10 shares in company at £1 per share - at the end of the day my potential value is £10
    The next day the shares drop tp £0.9 per share - I have a negative position - my shares are only worth £9
    I haven;t bought them yet - but I have a negative position - ie if things stayed as they are - I am going to realise (ie end up with)  a loss
    Now you can use this for loans and foreign exchange banks as well...

  • Unable to edit document using "Edit with Word" option

    Hi All,
    i am having an issue with Office web apps. i am using SharePoint 2013 and Office web apps 2013. all the configurations have been done successfully. but i have a different kind of issue.
    i am able to open documents in browser
    i am able to edit document using " edit with word/excel web" option
    but i am unable to edit document using "edit with word/excel" option
    i have Office 2010 installed on my local machine.
    do we need to have MS office of 2013 version? or is there anything missing from configuration part.
    Please help me.
    Thank You,
    Bhaskar.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you could not use the "edit with word/excel" option.
    I had tested the issue with the Office 2010, the option worked well.
    You don’t need to install the Office 2013 to use this option.
    What did you mean “but i am unable to edit document using "edit with word/excel" option
    Did you mean the option gray out? Did the issue occur in other browsers?
    You can use compatibility mode to check whether it works.
    Open IE->Tools->Compatibility View Settings
    You can also add the site into Trusted sites.
    Open the IE->Internet Options->Security->Sites->add the site into the Websites, then check whether it works.
    What's more, you can also use other browsers to check whether it works, such as Firefox, Chrome.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • This is a bit of information for folks that use Robohelp for Word.

    I know this is all a day late and a follar short but for those folks that still use Robohelp for Word:
    If your company is going to Windows 7, X5 will not work.  You need to bump it up to at least RH8.
    Even after you upgrade, if you use the tripane (winhelp_2000) view in RH for Word, it will not work on Windows 7 even with the microsoft patch.  With the patch it will look like an older version of RH in winhelp_4.  At least I have not been able to get it to display.
    What will work is if you compile it in Webhelp.  You will loose some links.  I know I should be moving to Robhelp Html and I tried, but when I did that I got a lot of garbage at the top of all my topics, I lost all my external links and I would have to retrain my partner...
    Now about links.  My only complaint about Robohelp for Word was it's limited external linking capacity.  If you use RH for Word you know you can only brouse to the net or to an htm or html document.  It doesn't mean you can't link to a PDF or an excel spread sheet.  You just can't brouse to it.  You can manually enter the path.  I just changed 740+ htm links to pdf links (pdf in same file as htm and the names were the same except for extension) and it worked.  If you intend to try this back up.
    Anyway, if this helps anyone great..if not thanks for letting me babble.  I like my Robohelp for Word in Webhelp format.
    Peggy Theo.

    Thanks for posting this Peggy.
    It is worth adding that there is another way of continuing to work with Word - using Linked Documents in RoboHelp HTML. You create Word documents entirely independent of RoboHelp and then create topics by linking those documents in a RoboHelp HTML project.
    You cannot create WinHelp that way but WinHelp is on life support and requires users to download a viewer, you cannot distribute it. It really is time to move on from WinHelp.
    RoboHelp for Word is not getting much development and does not get the new features being added to RoboHelp HTML.
    Linking is covered on my site.

  • I need to use a reserved word as parameter name in proc called from URL

    Let me preface this post by saying I already know this is terrible to attempt, but it's short term fix only.
    Ok, so I have to create a procedure that will be called by a vendors application via a API that calls our URL to send data over. The terrible part is
    that the API they have uses the parameter FROM=vendor_data A change is on the way so in the future the API won't use FROM as a paramter, so this isn't something I want to do, but it's a workaround.
    So the nastiness is this..., I can create a procedure that'll compile when I enclose FROM in double quotes "FROM" as my input parameter
    but if I try to call my procedure via URL (as their application will do) the procedure isn't working. I searched for someway to do an inline
    replace of the FROM parameter to something else, but no luck. I'm open to all positive comments. I cannot go outside of Oracle
    to do this, so I can't call a shell script and replace. Basically I need some way to use a reserved word as a parameter name, and then be able to call
    that proc from a URL, or someway to change the FROM in the URL inline. Any help on this admittedly whacky situation would be appreciated much.
    I tried ...\myproc?from=text
    ...\myproc?"from"=text
    ...\myproc?'from'=text
    proc is simple test procedure
    create or replace procedure myproc
    ("from" in varchar2 default 0)
    is
    v_from varchar2(30);
    begin
    v_from:="FROM";
    insert into test(col1) values(v_from);
    end;
    **** Update
    I didn't get any more replies but came to a solution that I thought I'd post. It's much better, more elegant and maybe can help others.
    So instead of using FROM as the parameter name I did some research and decided I can use flexible parameters. Basically you end up having
    2 input parameters for a procedure, one holds a parameter name the other holds the parameter value. They get loaded into arrays
    and you access the values with regular name_array(1), value_array(1), etc. ?v=parameter&v2=value
    Once I figued I could use flexible parameter it took me tons of research to find out the actual syntax. I'll post some examples for others
    later, but was suprised with the lack of resources consideriing how "flexible" they are.
    Thanks again for the replies. Cheers.

    Scott,
    Thanks for the reply. I'm not familiar with the wwv_flow_epg_include_mod_local, however I know that the
    myproc is available via URL. I passed the my procedure name(myproc) on to the dba a while back to make it "accessible" so, I'm assuming that he
    added it to this the www_flow_epg_mod_local (assuming this has something to do with access control).
    If I modify myproc procedure and remove "FROM" as the input variable, and replace with say,
    IN_FROM I can then call the procedure via the URL ./myproc?in_from=test without any problems.
    I'm pretty confident that it's the "FROM" that is the hurdle and not a security or setup issue. The proc is fine to call from the URL until I got the curveball that the only available parameter was FROM. How the URL should be when inputing to that parameter?

  • Using * this * key word?

    Hello
    I am trying to grey ONLY the box part (not label/caption) of the field/object, so am using below,
    xfa.resolveNode("VISITOR.Page1.myInfo.Name.ui.#textEdit.border.fill.color").value = "192,192,192";
    working fine,
    but, i came to know that the xfa.resolveNode is not efficient, so, i want to use this key word so i tired as below
    this.ui.#textEdit.border.fill.color.value = "192,192,192";
    but, not working!! pls help me how to get my requirement with this key word for a better PERFORMENCE.
    Thank you

    If it's coloring BOTH the caption and value, a sneaky way around this is to create 2 fields instead of the 1 field you currently have.
    1st field would be a label field
    2nd field would be in input field but with the caption turned off.
    then, just color the 2nd field.
