Word 97

We've recently changed to the Office 97 suite & are having some problems with
apps that startup Word. They startup fine but when you shutdown the Forte
app, it doesn't shutdown Word? This used to work for Word 95?? Do we have to
run the OLEGEN utility again to bring in any changes for Word 97?
Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi, I was wondering if liam was able to get an answer to his question because I am having the exact same problem. I was emailed a 97-04 Word document but Pages is telling me it cannot open it because of an invalid format. I am a (very) new user and don't know if I'm just doing something wrong? Any suggestions anyone could offer would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Lisa

  • Malicious or not? Message popped up: Mozilla security found (something like too much, forget exact word) activity on your computer so it will do a fast scan of system file. With OK button.

    I was looking at youtube.com, which always tells me my browser is not supported and recommends I download Firefox, but that is what I was using, so I went to Firefox to check for updates. (I think I also had freecycle.org open.) Then this message popped up in a new page: Mozilla security found (something like "too much", forget exact word) activity on your computer so it will do a fast scan of system file. There was an OK button. The page address was: http://update17.stegner.ce.ms/index.php?Q7Lhl9ShbRxGJXpkM1VLSi4ZE8H4pTedoVPySgeppM3VpC+thEspcFG7qxHgn1pdsC2h5ygPGWI3t5hXqMzL9EQaZZ3J1e3CKXgCb0Qp. I did not click OK but copied the link and closed the window which closed the internet. I have never seen this before and would like to know if it is really Mozilla or possibly something malicious. Thank you.

    Good catch. That almost certainly is an invitation to download malware.
    There are a lot of infected web sites pushing "fake antivirus" software. If you have any doubts about whether your system might have become infected, you can supplement your regular security software with these two highly regarded scanners:

  • I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

    I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

    The application Acrobat provides no language translation capability.
    If you localize the language for OS, MS Office applications, Acrobat, etc to the desired language try again.
    Alternative: transfer a copy of content into a web based translation service (Bing or Google provides a free service).
    Transfer the output into a word processing program that is localized to the appropriate language.
    Do cleanup.

  • I can't use word because a box keeps popping up saying that it can't find the spell check files?

    I open Word and there is a pop-up message saying that word cannot start the spelling checker because the files may be missing and to make sure that the spell checker files are installed or use the Microsoft installer to install spell checker. I have never had this problem with Word before and spell check has always been fine. What should I do?

    Since word is made by Microsoft you should post your question on their own forums for their Mac software as Apple Communities only provide support for Apple products:

    Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only.
    However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is already open on or from any machine which is causing code edits to be lost.
    What we found from out testing:
    - The file can be saved from one user to the server and WILL NOT PROMPT on other machines until the saving machine has the Dreamweaver program closed completely
    - The file can be closed and  Dreamweaver minimised to the launch bar but it still will not register on other machines that it has been changed.
    - Also, until the  Dreamweaver program is closed on the machines, it will continue to open it's saved version of the file. 
    Example Scenario:
    - User 1 opens test.css (which is 2000 lines) and adds some code to the end of the file to bring it up to 2500 lines
    - Meanwhile User 2 opens test.css as well (opens as 2000 lines as User 1’s edits have not yet been saved) and adds in code to bring it to 2300 lines
    - User 1 saves his file and closes it - but  Dreamweaver is still open.
    - User 2 also saves his file and leaves  Dreamweaver  open.
    - The server will report the size and last edit of the file the same as User 2 as he was the last person to save it (and if you open from the Win7 Machine it will show as User 2’s 2300 line version)
    - If User 1 then open's the file again (from either the 'recent' in Dreamweaver OR clicking on the file directly in Finder...which version opens.... The version that User 1 saved! Not the true version on the server, but the version that User 1 edited and saved with 2500 lines in it.
    - Same for User 2, he will open 'his' version with 2300 lines in.
    Other information:
    - Files are opened directly from the server
    - Sometimes the users will save incrementally and re-open
    - Most of the time users will save incrementally and keep the files open
    - The users will never not save incrementally and just save when closing the file once finished
    - The users are usually working on the files all day
    - It is always the bottom lines of code that are lost. It could be a case of the two versions being mixed up and cutting off the newly added lines based on the line count (possibly).
    It is as if Dreamweaver is holding a cache of the version locally and then only properly looking back to the server when it has been completely closed. It is very difficult to see how the server is causing such an impact on these files, there are very few logs which are giving any indication to the root cause of the problems.
    Anyone know if this is a known issue?
    Is there a way that there can be a featured implemented on the server that doesn't allow another user to open a file if it is already open on another machine?
    Thanks

    Your server file handling has nothing, and really nothing to do with Adobe software. If files don't get locked for (over-)writing and/or lose connection to the program opening them, then your server is misconfigured. It's as plain and simple and that. Anything from "known file types"/ file associations not being set correctly, MIME types being botched, crooked user privileges and file permissions, missing Mac server extensions, delayed file writing on the server, generic network timeout issues and what have you. Either way, you have written a longwinded post with no real value since you haven't bothered to provide any proper technical info, most notably about the alleged server. Either way, the only way you can "fix" it is by straightening out your server and network configuration, not some magic switch in Adobe's software.

  • Report Generation MS-Word always give error

    Hi
    I am using LV 2012 and MS Office 2010.
    I am using report generation toolkit to have a customised output report.
    When I specify output format as excel, I am able to get the desired result but when I specify output format as word, it always throws an error. I checked running the NI examples meant to give output in word but they all fail while the excel reports are perfect.
    Please find attached an error code for one of the example Sample Report(word).vi
    Please suggest the solution.

    We need to see the code in order to say "Here is the error" or "Try doing it this way".  It also gives us something to try, ourselves.  Do you know how to make "snippets", which are .PNG "pictures" of your code that you can simply put into the message using Insert Image?  We can then drag this image into a LabVIEW Block Diagram, and voilà, working code!

    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox four times. After the last uninstall, I didn't even reinstall it. Safari is extremely slow on my computer, and YouTube refuses to work, as well. What should I do?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    The first thing to try is to repair your hard drive. Boot from your install disc, choose your language, and then navigate to Disk Utility from the menu bar. Go to the First Aid tab and select your hard drive and then "Repair Disk". Repair it until there is nothing left to repair.
    When done, you might want to update your software if you are still running 10.6.3--I believe that 10.6.5 is out now.
    Good luck!

  • My Microsoft Word gives me an error report as soon as I try to open Word Document

    I have the Microsoft Word for Mac 2011 and I've had it for almost 3 years now. I didn't have any problems until I decided to update it since I haven't done so when I installed Microsoft on my Macbook pro. After about 3 or 4 updates I started having difficulties when it suddenly gives me an error once I tried creating a new document that says: "Microsoft Word has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." and underneath it says More Information so I clicked on it and this is what it gave me:

    I clicked on check for updates just in case I missed any, but it says there's no updates available. Also, I restarted my computer twice and it still doesn't work. Did the updates messed it up? I really need to fix this problem soon because I'm going to need Word for school. Please and thank you!
    Edit: I'll be moving this question over the other forum, but can anyone at least solve this problem for me here?

    Microsoft Word is a Microsoft app. You should post your question to a Microsoft forum.

    Hi,
    Have you try to un-select the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) setting?
    Click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Excel Options.
    Click Advanced, and then click to clear the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)
    check box in the General area.
    Click OK.
    If the problem cannot resolve, the Run as administrator may selected.
    Go to Office default install location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12.
    Right-click EXCEL.EXE > Properties >
    Compatibility tab.
    Under Privilege Level, uncheck Run this program as an administrator
    check box.

  • How can I display Excel using Word VSTO Addin.

    Hi all.
    I am a beginner.
    And studying Word VSTO ribbon addins.
    I wrote very simple one (works charm );   
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application  oAPP  =  Globals.ThisAddIn.Application;
    oAPP.Selection.InsertAfter( " Hello, Word !! " );        
    oAPP.Selection.Collapse();
    Now, I have to go on.
    I want to display "Hello, Excel !! " from the same addin (from the Word Addin)
    I tried to port the following VBA codes (into Word Addin);
        Set oEXCEL = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
        Set oWBOOK = oEXCEL.Workbooks.Add
        oWBOOK.ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Value = " Hello, Excel !! "
        oEXCEL.Visible = True
    I do not know how to start from the very beginning.
    I can not make "Application (for excel)" object at all.
    VS says, the "Application" is not for the Excel but for the Word.
    Yes, everybody know it. But, Excel has the same one too. So I tried to make casting. It never works.
    I added required reference(s).
    Wht do I have to do ?
    Is it impossible, naturally ?
    Regards

    Hello,
    The
    How to automate Microsoft Excel from Microsoft Visual C#.NET  article describes all the required steps for automating Excel from any other application.
    Anyway, the current forum is for VSTO specific questions. I'd suggest asking Excel or Word specific questions on the
    Excel for Developers or
    Word for Developers forums instead.

  • I downloaded mountain lion and then the new office suite (word, ppt, excel) but now when I try to display one of my ppt's it says 'ppt cannot open the file...the file may be corrupt, in use, not a type recognized by ppt etc.." how can I fix it?? HELP

    Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
    If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:

  • How can i use microsoft word on ipad 2

    how can i use the microsoft application on my ipad 2?

    The Pages app is also compatible with MS Word. Unlike some of the others mentioned, the document is actually stored on the iPad as opposed to 'the clouds'. Again, most of those mentioned are cut down versions of MS Word.
    Stand back and look at this constructively; do you need to regularly access to the document from more than one computer/device without the need to keep amending your document on your computer and sending it to your iPad? If so, Documente to Go etc may be the best choice.
