Categories and Keywords for All Knowledge Base Articles

Article ID: Q94671

CATEGORIES AND KEYWORDS FOR ALL KNOWLEDGE BASE ARTICLES

=======================================================

To categorize articles within the Microsoft Knowledge Base and make finding

information easier, a common set of keywords has been adapted for use

throughout the KB. These keywords are used to categorize the subject of

each article. Each article has one SUBJECT keyword. A secondary keyword

indicating the TYPE of article can also be used.

To query on one category, enter the category code and a wildcard. For

example:

   kb3rdparty*

To query on more than one category, enter each category code with a

wildcard. For example:

   kb3rdparty* or kbinterop* or kbusage*

To query on one subcategory, enter the complete code. For example:

   kbbuglist

To query on more than one subcategory, enter all the complete codes. For

example:

   kbbuglist or kbfixlist

You can also mix categories and subcategories in one query. For example:

   kbtshoot or kbnetwork*

NOTE: At the end of this article is a table that lists formerly used

keywords and their replacements.

MORE INFORMATION

================

Future querying tools may allow for use of friendly names for information

categories. With current searching tools, "printing" cannot be used as a

keyword because that word is also used in many articles whose main subject

is not printing. Until our tools allow searching on keywords separately

from article text, we need to create unique spellings for Knowledge Base

keywords. Therefore, all standard Knowledge Base keywords will begin with

the letters "kb."

Word Cannot Find the Word Forms File MSWDS_EN.LEX

Article ID: Q132047

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Windows 95

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you use the Find command on the Edit menu and select the Find All Word

Forms option, you may receive the error message:

   Word cannot find the Word Forms File MSWDS_EN.LEX for English(US).

CAUSE

=====

When you perform a Typical setup of Word or Office, the file MSWDS_EN.LEX

is not installed. This file is required for the Find All Word Forms feature

to work.

You may also receive this error message if the file MSWDS_EN.LEX is damaged

or missing.

RESOLUTION

==========

Method 1: Run Setup again to install Find All Word Forms. (In Office Setup,

          this option is located under the options for Microsoft Word.)

          When the installation options appear, do the following:

          a. Choose the Custom option.

          b. Click Proofing Tools.

          c. Click the Change button.

          d. Select the Find All Word Forms check box.

          e. Continue with Setup.

Method 2: You can also install Find All Word Forms through Maintenance Mode

          setup. Click the Add/Remove button and then choose the options in

          Method 1.

Word 95: WordBasic Err=582 "Unable to Load Specified Library"

Article ID: Q132214

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you run a macro or wizard designed for Word 2.0 or 6.0 in Word for

Windows 95, or you open a file or save a file, or when you start Word, you

may receive the following error message:

     WordBasic Err= 582, Unable to load specified library

or

     WordBasic Error = : Invalid library

Note: This problem does not occur in earlier versions of Word running

under Windows 95.

CAUSE

=====

Macros, wizards, templates or global Add-ins that worked in earlier

versions of Word may not run at all in Word for Windows 95. This happens

when a macro makes a call to 16-bit DLLs (dynamic link libraries) or the

Add-in is designed to run on 16-bit Windows 3.x. Word 7.0 is a 32-bit

application and cannot communicate with 16-bit DLLs.

Word version 2.0 and Word version 6.0 will run under Windows 95, and these

programs can successfully work with 16-bit DLLs.

WORKAROUND

==========

If you are using a wizard or macro supplied with Word 6.0, you may be able

to use a similar wizard or macro that comes with Word 7.0. The following

are similar:

   Word 6.0 Wizard Name     Word 7.0 Wizard Name

   --------------------     --------------------

   Fax.wiz                  Fax Wizard.wiz

   FontSampleGenerator      (same name) in Macros7.dot

   PrintableCharacters      (same name) in Layout7.dot

If you are using a custom macro, you will need to rewrite it to use the 32-

bit API function equivalents instead of the 16-bit API calls.

For additional information on determining 32-bit equivalents, please see

the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

   ARTICLE-ID: Q120767

   TITLE     : Porting WordBasic Macros to Word for Windows NT

TROUBLESHOOTING

===============

If you receive this error message when starting Word or opening a new file,

the following instructions may help you locate the source of the problem:

1. Look for Auto macros:

   a. On the Tools menu, click Macros.

   b. In the Macros Available In list, select All Active Templates.

   c. Look for any macros that start with the word "Auto," such as AutoNew,

      AutoOpen, AutoExec, and AutoClose.

   d. Click the Organizer button.

   e. Click the Macros tab.

   f. Highlight any Auto macro, and click the Rename button. Give the

      macro a new name by placing another letter at the beginning of the

      macro name. The macro will still be available, but it won't load

      automatically.

   g. Repeat the procedure that produced the problem. If the error message

      persists, continue with steps 2 and 3. If the message no longer

      appears, either rewrite the macro or contact the person who wrote it

      to get an updated macro.

2. Look in the Startup folder for global templates and add-ins:

   a. Using Explorer, look in Word's Startup folder.

   b. Temporarily move the items from the Startup folder to the Desktop.

   c. Restart Word.

   d. If the error message persists, continue with step 3. If the message

      no longer appears, contact the creator of the add-in for an updated

      file.

3. Look in File Templates for other global templates and add-ins:

   a. On the File menu, click Templates.

   b. In the "Global Templates and Add-ins" list, clear (remove the X from)

      any item that is selected.

   c. Restart Word.

FileSendMail Command and MsgBox May Cause MAPI Error

Article ID: Q132912

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Windows 95

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

If you use a message box statement (MsgBox) with the FileSendMail command

in Word, you may receive the following error message:

   Microsoft Exchange Error:  MAPI Error:  Microsoft Word - 0 - (80010001)

CAUSE

=====

The error is caused by a focus conflict between the two commands.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95,

version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new

information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

================

Word 95: "No Proofing" Message in Document with Fields

Article ID: Q132918

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Windows 95

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you check the spelling of a document containing fields, this message

appears when the spell checking is done:

   The spelling check is complete. Text formatted with (no proofing) was

   skipped.

Or, when you type a new field and update it (by pressing CTRL+F9, typing

the field name, and updating the field), the entire field is formatted as

"(no proofing)."

CAUSE

=====

Word automatically formats fields with the "(no proofing)" language

property. The message appears to let you know that Word did not check the

spelling of some text in the document.

STATUS

======

This behavior is by design; field names are not recognized by the spelling

checker. Formatting them as "(no proofing)" prevents the spelling checker

from stopping to spell check them, since they're already spelled correctly.

MORE INFORMATION

================

The following fields are marked "(no proofing)":

Article ID: Q133044

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Windows 95

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

=======

1. Define a style (without highlighting).

2. Record a macro in which you apply that style to a paragraph.

3. Click the Highlight button.

4. Stop recording the macro.

5. Assign the macro to a toolbar button or keystroke.

Word 95: "Cannot Retrieve Properties for..."

Article ID: Q133195

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Windows 95

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you try to view the properties of a document that has a preview

picture, and you are looking at files in Preview view in the File Open

dialog box, you receive the error message

   Cannot retrieve properties for '<filename>'

where "<filename>" is the name of the document whose properties you are

trying to view.

CAUSE

=====

This happens because Word actually opens the file in order to display the

preview.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95,

version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new

information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND

==========

Since Word does not display the preview immediately, you can attempt to

view the properties before Word opens the file by doing the following:

1. Click another filename.

2. Click the file you want to examine.

3. Quickly click the right mouse button and choose Properties, or quickly

   press ALT+ENTER.

The properties now display.

MORE INFORMATION

================

You can save a preview picture with a document by opening the document,

clicking Properties on the File menu, and selecting the Save Preview

Picture option (at the bottom of the dialog box). Selecting this option

saves a snapshot of the first page of the document.

To view this snapshot, click Open on the File menu, and select the

Preview button at the top of the Open dialog box.

Word 95: Can't Rename or Delete File in File Open

Article ID: Q133196

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Windows 95

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you try to rename or delete a file in Word's File Open dialog box and

you are viewing files in Preview mode, you receive the following error

message:

   Cannot rename [or delete] '<file name>'. Access is denied. Make sure

   the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not

   currently in use.

CAUSE

=====

This occurs when the file you are trying to rename or delete has not been

Preview Picture saved. Word has actually opened the file so that you can

scroll through it in the File Open dialog box.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95,

version 7.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information

here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND

==========

Change the view from Preview to any other view (such as List, Details, or

Properties) by clicking the appropriate button in the File Open dialog box

before attempting to rename or delete a file.

MORE INFORMATION

================

Preview Picture allows a snapshot of the first page of the document to

appear in the File Open dialog box.

Unable to Type in Message Area in WordMail

Article ID: Q133197

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Windows 95

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

If you use the WordMail option in Microsoft Exchange and you compose a new

mail message, the keyboard does not respond in the message area.

CAUSE

=====

This occurs when the File New dialog box is open in Microsoft Word.

WordMail is using Microsoft Word to create the mail message, and the File

New dialog box prevents typing the new message.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95,

version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new

information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

RESOLUTION

==========

Switch to Microsoft Word and cancel the File New dialog box.

MORE INFORMATION

================

When you use WordMail as your mail editor in Microsoft Exchange, Exchange

uses the existing session of Microsoft Word, or creates one if Word is not

running. If a dialog box such as File New is open, it prevents the session

from continuing, thus rendering WordMail unable to continue. The To:,

From:, CC's: and Subject: areas of the new message are components of

Exchange, while the message area is a component of WordMail.

Note: This error does not occur if the WordMail session is started before

Word is started; in this case, WordMail and Word each run in a separate

session.

DefaultDir$() and GetDirectory$() Return Lowercase Path

Article ID: Q133788

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

The DefaultDir$() and GetDirectory$() functions in WordBasic both return a

path in all lowercase letters instead of mixed-case letters, which is

supported by Windows 95 and Windows NT.

CAUSE

=====

This is a limitation of the WordBasic commands.

WORKAROUND

==========

You can convert the path into all uppercase characters by using the

UCASE$() function. For example, the following function returns

C:\MSOFFICE\TEMPLATES:

   MsgBox UCase$(DefaultDir$(1))

There is no direct way to return the mixed-case form of the paths.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95 version

7.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in

the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

Using Highlight Tool Causes Option To Be Turned On

Article ID: Q133840

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

Selecting the Highlight toolbar button enables any previous document

highlighting to show.

CAUSE

=====

When the Highlight toolbar button is pressed, the Highlight option is

selected on the View menu automatically by Word. Thus, any previous

document highlighting will become visible and may give the appearance that

the Highlight tool is not functioning correctly.

MORE INFORMATION

================

Microsoft Word 7.0 for Windows 95 provides a new text Highlighting feature.

This feature is a view option from the Tools, Options menu. If this option

is selected, any highlighting that has been applied to text in the document

will become visible.

In order for Word 7.0 to display (and print) any text highlighting, the

View Highlight option must be selected. If this option is not selected,

then the text highlighting will not be displayed (or printed). Once this

option has been selected, the option must be turned off manually through

the menu selections.

To Turn Off Highlighting:

-------------------------

1. Select Options from the Tools menu.

2. Select the View tab. Clear the Highlight checkbox under Show.

Word Prompts to Save Changes Unnecessarily When Closing File

Article ID: Q133860

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you close a document after saving it, Word may prompt you to save

changes even though there are apparently no changes to be saved.

CAUSE

=====

This behavior is by design and occurs when the Word Automatic Spell

Checking feature is enabled. When you have the Automatic Spell Checking

option selected, Word may add information to the document after you save it

that causes Word to prompt to save changes. Automatic Spell Checking makes

changes to the document by adding information about each word being

correctly or incorrectly spelled. When spelling data is changed after a

save, Word asks if you want to save changes to ensure that the valuable

spelling data is saved.

MORE INFORMATION

================

To reproduce this behavior, change some text in your document and then

quickly save the document while the small icon in the status bar is moving.

After you save, Word adds new spelling data to the document, and that new

data causes Word to ask if you want to save changes when you close the

file.

To turn off automatic spell checking, do the following:

1. On the Tools menu, click Options.

2. Click the Spelling tab.

3. Clear the Automatic Spell Checking check box.

Spelling Shortcut Menu Does Not Pop Up with Right Mouse Click

Article ID: Q133872

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

The spell checking shortcut menu does not appear when you use the right

mouse button to click the paragraph mark, manual line break, or any

punctuation mark following a misspelled word. Instead, the editing shortcut

menu appears.

CAUSE

=====

Neither a paragraph mark, a manual line break character, nor any

punctuation mark following a misspelled word is considered to be part of

the word. However, spaces to the right of a word are considered to be part

of that word.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95 version

7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information

here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND

==========

With the right mouse button, click the misspelled word itself instead of

the paragraph mark, manual line break, or punctuation mark following that

word.

TrueType Text Bleeds Through Drawing Objects When Printed

Article ID: Q133878

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

If a shaded drawing object is superimposed over text formatted with

TrueType fonts, the text may "bleed through" the drawing object when

printed to a Hewlett-Packard (HP) LaserJet 4 PCL printer if the "TrueType

as Graphics" or "Download TrueType as Bitmap Soft Fonts" printing option is

turned on.

STATUS

======

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in

the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUNDS

===========

Method 1: Turn off the "TrueType as Graphics" or "Download TrueType as

          Bitmap Soft Fonts" printing options.

Method 2: Use an HP LaserJet III printer driver.

Method 3: Format the document using a font other than Times New Roman,

          Courier New, Symbol, or Arial.

MORE INFORMATION

================

The HP LaserJet has some standard TrueType fonts build into the printer.

The problem occurs only when you use one of these built-in TrueType fonts.

These fonts include Times New Roman, Courier New, Symbol, and Arial.

Because the HP LaserJet III does not have built-in TrueType fonts, this

problem does not occur with this printer driver.

This problem does not occur when you run Word with Windows NT.

Text Formatting Lost When Sending Text From Word To WordMail

Article ID: Q133880

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

If you uncheck the "Mail as Attachment" option from the Tool/Options menu

under the General Tab, then text formatting will be lost when you send it

to a mail message even if you are using WordMail.

CAUSE

=====

Word offers two choices to the user: to send as attachment or to send as

plain text. If "Mail as Attachment" is not checked, then any text sent to

mail is sent in a text only format.

STATUS

======

The feature operates this way by design.

MORE INFORMATION

================

This feature is designed to allow users to use Word to send messages to

generic mail systems in a format that any system can read. Therefore it

strips any formatting that may be misread by other mail systems, and sends

only text.

Word Opens Master Document as Read-Only

Article ID: Q133910

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

After you save a master document, close it, and reopen it, Word may open

the document as read-only.

CAUSE

=====

As in Word 6.0, Word 7.0 opens a Master Document as read-only if you are

not the author. To determine who the author is, Word looks at the Author

field on the Summary tab of the File Properties dialog box and compares the

name to the Name field on the User Info tab in the Tools Options dialog

box. If they don't match, Word opens the file as read-only.

However, unlike Word 6.0, Word 7.0 saves the Author name from the Tools

Options User Info tab when the Master document is created (File New)

instead of when the document is saved for the first time. So it is possible

to start a new document, change the name in the Name field of the User Info

tab in Tools Options, add subdocuments, save the master document, and then

have the master document reopen as read-only because, at this point, the

Author name will not match the User name.

WORKAROUND

==========

To open the master document so that you can make changes to the file,

change the Name field on the User Info tab in Tools Options so it matches

the Author field in the document properties of the main document. When you

close and then reopen the master document, Word opens it as read-write.

To prevent the creation of a master document with an incorrect Author name,

verify that the Name field on the User Info tab in Tools Options is correct

before creating a new document, or verify the Author name on the Summary

tab in File Properties is correct before saving master documents for the

first time.

Automatic Spell Checking Flags Words Incorrectly

Article ID: Q133984

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

 - Automatic Spell Checking may not flag words as misspelled or as repeated

   words if they are formatted as hidden text.

   -or-

 - Automatic Spell Checking (the red, wavy underline) may flash off and on

   as you type.

CAUSE

=====

These symptoms appear when you work with text formatted as hidden and View

Hidden Text is turned off on the View tab of Tools Options.

In the first case, Word will not spell check any hidden text you typed

while View Hidden Text was turned off. Once you turn View Hidden Text on,

Word will automatically check only the word immediately to the left of the

insertion point. Thus, Word does not check any other misspelled or repeated

words that you typed.

In the second case, if the insertion point precedes or follows hidden text,

then as you type nonhidden text, you may see the red, wavy lines flash on

and off.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95,

version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new

information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND

==========

These problems do not occur if you have View Hidden Text turned on while

working with a document that contains hidden text. To turn this option on:

1. On the Tools menu, click Options.

2. Click the View tab.

3. Under Nonprinting Characters, select the Hidden Text check box.

Field Highlight Extends Beyond Selected Field

Article ID: Q134039

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

In Microsoft Word for Windows 95, Field shading may extend beyond the end

of the field to the end of the current line.

CAUSE

=====

This problem occurs when all of the following conditions are true:

 - The Field Codes check box is selected (it contains a check mark)

   -and-

 - Field Shading is set to When Selected

   -and-

 - The insertion point is on the field

This also happens when these conditions are true:

 - The Field Codes check box is selected (it contains a check mark)

   -and-

 - Field Shading is set to Always

Note that if you clear the Field Codes check box, if you place the

insertion point on the result of a field, Word will highlight only the

results of the field and not text that may follow the field.

WORKAROUND

==========

To avoid this display problem, either clear the Field Codes check box or

set Field shading to Never. To locate these options, click Options on the

Tools menu, and then click the View tab.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95 version

7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information

WordBasic Commands That Are Invalid in WordMail

Article ID: Q134055

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

========

This article lists WordBasic commands that are known to be invalid in

WordMail. This list is generated using CommandValid. There may be

additional invalid WordBasic commands that are not listed here.

MORE INFORMATION

================

Micrososft Word is an Multiple Document Interface (MDI) application, while

its document object, WordMail, is not. This causes "CommandValid" to show

as available some commands that may not work in WordMail. If you encounter

one of these commands, the error message will read:

   The <command name> command is not available because this document is

   in another application.

WinFax Pro Buttons and Menus Not Available in Word

Article ID: Q134062

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

WinFax Pro buttons and menus are not available in Word for Windows 95,

version 7.0. WinFax Pro may also cause error messages printing to the fax

driver from Word. One common error message is:

   Select Paper Size between 0-22 inches.

CAUSE

=====

WinFax Pro looks for a Template (singular) folder for its information. This

path is hard-coded in WinFax Pro by Delrina. In Word for Windows 95, the

directory structure has changed to MsOffice\Templates (plural). Therefore,

when WinFax looks for the Template folder, it cannot find one and cannot

add the macros necessary to provide its functionality in Word.

STATUS

======

This issue is under review by Delrina and a correction will be considered

for inclusion in a future release of WinFax Pro.

WORKAROUND

==========

1. Create a subfolder in the Word program folder and name it Template.

2. Move your Normal.dot template to this new folder.

3. Reinstall WinFax Pro.

4. Copy the Normal.dot file from the Winword\Template folder back to its

   correct location in the MsOffice\Templates folder.

Word 95: Word 6 Startup Directory Contents Not Copied to Word

Article ID: Q134113

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you install Word 7.0 on a computer where Word 6.0 is already

installed, the contents of the Word 6.0 Startup folder is not copied to the

new Word 7.0 Startup folder.

CAUSE

=====

This is by design. The Startup folder typically contains Word add-ins and

templates that contain macros that make 16-bit API calls. These 16-bit API

calls or 16-bit Word add-ins will generate error messages if you run them

in Windows 95. By not copying the contents of the Startup folder to the

Word 7.0 Startup folder, you are less likely to encounter error messages

when you start Word.

WORKAROUND

==========

If you have templates in the Word 6.0 Startup folder that do not contain

macros that make 16-bit API calls, you can copy or move these templates to

the Word 7.0 Startup folder. Under no circumstances should a Word 6.0 add-

in (a 16-bit WLL) be copied to the Word 7.0 Startup folder: it will not

work with Word 7.0. Rather than use a 16-bit WLLs or add-in, you must

obtain a 32-bit update from the add-in author.

Closing WinMail Modal Dialog Box Produces Error

Article ID: Q134120

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

If you cancel more than one WordMail message while a modal dialog box is

open in Word, Word produces the following error message when you close the

modal dialog box:

   There is insufficient memory. Word cannot display the requested font.

In addition, the next time you open a WordMail message, Word produces a

general protection fault (GP fault) or an invalid page fault.

Note: A modal dialog box is any dialog box that requires focus and does not

relinquish focus until you click OK or Cancel. Examples include File New,

File Open, File Save, and Insert Object. Most dialog boxes in Word are

modal.

CAUSE

=====

The wrong windows are closed when the WordMail messages are canceled

because the activate is not being changed properly.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95,

version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new

information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUNDS

===========

Method 1: Open only one WordMail message at a time.

Method 2: Close the modal dialog box before canceling the WordMail

messages.

The Purpose of the Select Method Check Box

Article ID: Q134207

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

=======

When you insert a database in Word for Windows 95, one of the options in

the File Open dialog box is Select Method. When you choose this option,

Select Method brings up a dialog box with the available converters and

allows you to select whether you want Word to use a converter, DDE, or ODBC

when importing data. If this option is not selected, Word examines the data

file's format and chooses the appropriate method on its own.

This option has the same function as the Confirm Conversions On Open option

in the Tools Options dialog box, but it is independent of that setting.

MORE INFORMATION

================

To locate this option, click Database on the Insert menu, and then click

Get Data. The Select Method option is located along the right edge of the

dialog box.

be contained in Service Pack 1 for NT 3.51. The Service Pack will also

address some issues with the Help on Windows NT 3.51 and contain other

enhancements. Once the Service Pack is available, NT 3.51 users will be

able to access it the following way: This file can be obtained by

[Using Help on Windows NT 3.51 Without Service Pack 1]

If the Answer Wizard is launched from the Help menu when a Help topic or

Help dialog is open, Help may not function.

When you are working in a Visual Basic Module in Microsoft Excel, you may

not be able to use context sensitive Help. To use Help in a module, use the

Answer Wizard or the online Help index.

[Removing Earlier Word Version's Help Files From Path statement]

On a machine with both Word 95 and a previous version of Word, Word 95 may

load the previous version's Help files. To correct this, edit the Path

statement in AUTOEXEC.BAT to remove the reference to the previous version's

directory location.

[Using Disks with Distribution Media Format (DMF)]

With the exception of the Setup disk (Disk 1), your Word disks use a new

format called DMF (Distribution Media Format). DMF increases the capacity

of a 3.5-inch floppy disk, which reduces the number of disks needed to

install your application and speeds up installation.

Because DMF is a new format, many existing utilities such as Norton Disk

Doctor, Microsoft ScanDisk, MS-DOS DiskCopy, and Microsoft Windows Copy

Disk do not recognize DMF. You should NOT use disk utilities to examine a

DMF formatted disk, as these utilities can corrupt the DMF disk. You cannot

copy DMF formatted disks using MS-DOS DiskCopy or Microsoft Windows Copy

Disk ( If you want to copy files from the Setup disks, see "Extracting

Files from DMF Disks," later in this file.).

Windows 95, Windows 3.1 (or later), and Windows NT 3.5 (or later) support

DMF.

If there is a chance that your system has a virus, you should run a

recently updated virus detection utility such as F-prot before installing

Word for Windows 95. Otherwise Disk 2 and higher may become infected with

the virus.

Extracting Files from DMF Disks

If you need to copy the Word disks onto a network server or other

permanent storage drive, you may use the copy switch (/C) with the

EXTRACT.EXE utility on Disk 1 to copy the Word installation files to the

target location.

For example, after creating a directory called C:\DISKS on your hard disk

drive for the

Word files, copy all the files on Disk 1 to that directory. (Since Disk 1

does not use DMF, you can use the standard MS-DOS Copy command, COPY

A:\*.* C:\DISKS.) Switch to drive A and type the following command to copy

the

rest of the disks to the directory C:\DISKS:

FOR %I IN (*.*) DO C:\DISKS\EXTRACT /C A:\%I C:\DISKS\%I

A cabinet (.CAB) file includes many files stored as a single file. If you

need only a single file that is contained in one of the cabinet files, you

may search for it using the /D switch with EXTRACT.EXE. Once you find the

file, you can use EXTRACT.EXE again to copy the file to the desired

location. You can also type EXTRACT /? to get help on the EXTRACT command

options. Here are some examples of how to use the EXTRACT command to find

files.

 To list all files in a cabinet file:

EXTRACT /D A:\<cabinet filename>

To list all EXE files in a cabinet file:

EXTRACT /D A:\<cabinet filename> *.EXE

Here are some examples of how to use EXTRACT to copy a single file out of a

cabinet file.

To extract ANY.EXE to the current directory:

EXTRACT A:\<cabinet filename> ANY.EXE

To extract ANY.EXE to C:\OFFICE:

EXTRACT A:\<cabinet filename> /L C:\OFFICE ANY.EXE

[Printing EPS files in Windows 95 or Windows NT]

In both Windows 95 and Windows NT, 32-bit Word documents containing EPS

files do not print properly. Both the bitmap preview and the EPS file will

print, one on top of the other. The workaround for this in both Windows 95

and Windows NT, is to manually take out the PostScript code from the bitmap

preview. To do this, open the PostScript bitmap in a text editor.

[Equation Editor]

Equation Editor 2.0, a special version of the MathType equation editor from

Design Science, Inc., is customized for use with Microsoft applications,

such as Microsoft [nameofyourapplication] for the

that the extended version of Equation Editor is better suited to your

needs. This version includes customizable palettes, a macro feature,

advanced formatting based on tabs, a TeX interface, and the capability for

saving equations as either encapsulated PostScript (EPS) or PICT files.

[Lotus cc:Mail or Lotus Notes]

Word supports Vendor Independent Messaging (VIM) 1.0, which means that you

can use the Send and Add/Edit Routing Slip commands (File menu) in Word to

send or route Word documents with mail applications such as Lotus cc:Mail

that support VIM 1.0.  Lotus cc:Mail 1.11 users may get VIM support files

from Lotus. In order for Word to use VIM mail applications the DOS PATH

command in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file must include the directory in which the

mail application's VIM support files are stored.  If the PATH does not

include the directory containing the VIM support files then setup will not

install VIM support for Word and Word will not function correctly when

sending mail.  The Word support files for VIM 1.0 are called MAPIVI32.DLL

and MAPIVITK.DLL, and both are installed in the System subdirectory of the

Windows program directory.

There are known problems with Lotus Notes 3.3 TCP/IP network protocol

support which are being addressed in a future version of Lotus Notes. These

problems will prevent Word from sending mail through the current versions

of 16 bit Lotus Notes when Lotus Notes is using TCP/IP as its network

protocol.  Using a protocol other than TCP/IP solves the problem.

[Field Codes: Bookmark and REF Fields]

The Help topic "Field Codes: Bookmark and Ref Fields" is incomplete. You

must use the REF field when using the field switches \f and \n. The example

in the description of the \f field switch should be { REF Footnote1 \f }

where "Footnote1" is the bookmark marking the footnote reference mark of

footnote 1.

[Using Word 6.0 or Word 2.0 Templates with Word for Windows 95]

When you install Word for Windows 95, you will find that your old templates

will now appear in the File New dialog box under either the "Shortcut to

Old" or the "Shortcut to Workgroup" tabs. During installation, Setup

locates both your user and workgroup templates' locations and creates a

shortcut folder for each location. The shortcuts are stored in the Office

Templates folder, usually c:\MSOFFICE\TEMPLATES. If Setup does not find a

workgroup templates location, no shortcut folder will be created for it.

Example:

c:\WINWORD\TEMPLATE --> C:\MSOFFICE\TEMPLATES\shortcut to old

\\USER\WORKGRP\TEMPLATE --> c:\MSOFFICE\TEMPLATES\shortcut to workgroup

To use your old templates you can simply choose New from the File menu,

click on either the "Shortcut to Old" or "Shortcut to Workgroup" tab, then

choose your template name from the list of available templates.

To rename the File New tabs that point to your previous templates, use the

Windows Explorer to locate the "Shortcut to Old" or "Shortcut toWorkgroup"

folder and click once on the folder name. You can then type in a new name

which will appear as the name of the tab in the File New dialog.

CAUTION: Deleting your previous templates directory will delete your

previous templates. To best preserve your particular configuration Setup

does not copy or move your previous templates from their original location

to the Office templates directory. Be sure to copy or move your previous

templates before deleting the original directory.

[Word for Windows 95 default setup options]

If you want to find out what is contained in the Typical installation of

Word for Windows 95, choose the Custom option in Setup and look at the

default settings. These defaults are what is included in the Typical

installation.

The following are some of the options that are not installed when you

perform a Typical installation of Word:

Equation Editor

EPS graphics filter

GIF filter

Grammar

WordArt

Find All Word Forms (in the Edit Find/Replace dialog)

[Using Foreign Language Proofing Tools with Word for Windows 95]

Supplemental Foreign language proofing tools purchased for use with Word

6.0 will work with Word for Windows 95. However, when you proof a document

that has foreign language formatting in Word for Windows 95, Word may not

be able to locate the foreign language dictionary file. If you encounter

this problem, copy or move the foreign language dictionary file indicated

in the error message to the following folder: \Program Files\Common

Files\Microsoft Shared\Proof. In most cases, the indicated file will be

located in the folder: \windows\msapps\proof.

[Using Microsoft Bookshelf 1994 with Word for Windows 95]

The Microsoft Bookshelf 1994 integration tools used in Word 6.0 will not

work with Word for Windows 95. If you wish to use these products together,

you should install the Bookshelf Quickshelf toolbar.  Bookshelf 1995 will

have enhanced Word integration features.  Contact your local reseller or

call    the Microsoft Sales Information Center at 1-800-426-9400  for

information about obtaining the updated version of Bookshelf.

[WordBasic Errors with Word 6.0 Add-ins and Macros]

When you upgrade to Word for Windows 95 you may encounter one of the

following error messages while working within Word:

     WordBasic Error = 582: Unable to load specified library

     or

     WordBasic Error = : Invalid library

The most likely cause for this is when you have outdated Global Add-ins or

Templates installed in the File Templates dialog. Some macros and add-ins

are designed to run on 16-bit Windows 3.x and cannot be run on 32-bit

operating systems like Windows 95. Contact the add-in vendor or macro

author for an update. For more information type "WordBasic error 582" in

the Help Find dialog.

[WordMail Information]

By default WordMail uses the EMAIL template for composing and editing

notes. This template is located in your Word templates directory, usually

C:\MSOFFICE\WINWORD. You can customize toolbars, menus, and boilerplate

text in the EMAIL template by opening it in Word and modifying it as you

would any other Word template.

You can switch your default email editor from WordMail to the Exchange

editor by choosing Compose, WordMail Options and checking or clearing the

"Enable Word as Email Editor" check box.

Please note that WordMail requires 12 MB RAM. Using WordMail on systems

with less memory will result in poor performance.

[ODBC Not Included with Word for Windows 95]

The Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) files that provide easy access to

databases created by programs like Microsoft Access, SQL Server, and

Paradox, are not included with standalone Word for Windows 95. Access to

dBASE or FoxPro files is provided by the dBASE converter you can install

via the Custom setup option. Word can use the 32-bit ODBC files included

with Word for Windows 95 and Microsoft Access for Windows 95. You can also

obtain the 32-bit ODBC Drivers Application Note from Microsoft Product

Support Services. For more information on obtaining this application note

refer to the Supplemental Offers Coupon included in this package.

[Windows 95 for Pen Computing]

Support for Windows 95 for Pen Computing is not implemented in Word for

Windows 95.

[Updates to Getting Results with Microsoft Office for Windows 95]

The following are changes that occurred after the book went to press. The

page numbers listed are those in the Getting Results with Microsoft Office

for Windows 95. For those who purchased Word as a separate package, the

page number is in parentheses.

Graphics filters licensed from Henderson Software, Inc., are not part of

the product and should not be on the copyright page.

Pages 27 and 29 (pages 8 and 10): The correct online location of the

Network Install Readme is in the Getting Help section of the Word online

Help table of contents.

Page 28 (page 9): The name of the Remove button has been changed to the

Add/Remove button. Therefore, step 5 should read, "Click the Office

application (click Word), and click the Add/Remove button.

Page 29 (page 10) The correct procedure for starting Word is "click the

Start button, click Programs, and then click Word."

Page 126: The instructions for starting the Memo Wizard should read, "Click

the Memos tab, and then double-click the Memo Wizard." (This is correct in

Getting Results with Microsoft Word for Windows 95.)

Page 538: The reference to the AutoText toolbar button is incorrect.

Instead, you need to click AutoText (Edit menu) to insert AutoText entries.

To learn how to add AutoText (or other tools) to a toolbar, see page 503.

CopyFile Command Altered by Hide MS-DOS Extension Option

Article ID: Q134808

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you use the WordBasic command, CopyFile, the copy of the file does not

have an extension. As a result, the copied file loses its association with

Microsoft Word and becomes a generic Windows 95 file. The following code

results in this problem:

   Sub MAIN

   CopyFile "c:\storage\test.doc", "c:\temp"

   End Sub

CAUSE

=====

This problem occurs when the "Hide MS-DOS file extensions for file types

that are registered" is checked in Windows Explorer. (To locate this

option, in Windows Explorer, click Options on the View menu.)

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Word for Windows

95 version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new

information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

RESOLUTION

==========

To work around this problem, use one of the following methods to preserve

the copied file's association with Microsoft Word.

Method 1. Make sure the "Hide MS-DOS file extensions for file types that

          are registered" option in Windows Explorer is not checked.

Method 2. Use the Declare command to make a CopyFileA call to

          Kernel32.dll. To do so, use the following macro:

          Note: The sample assumes that you have a Microsoft Word document

          called "Test.doc" located in the C:\Storage folder.

          Declare Function CopyFileA Lib "kernel32"(a$ As String, b$ As

          String, n As Integer) As Integer

          Sub MAIN

          x = CopyFileA("c:\storage\test.doc", "c:\temp\test.doc ", 3)

          End Sub

Word 95: Previous Templates Not Available in New Dialog Box

Article ID: Q134912

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

After installing Word 7.0 to a new folder, templates that were available in

the Word 6.0 New dialog box seem to be missing from Word 7.0.

CAUSE

=====

The templates are available in the Word 7.0 New dialog box, under a tab

called "Shortcut to Old," for your local templates, or "Shortcut to

Workgroup," for your workgroup templates.

NOTE: If you deleted your Word 6.0 installation, including the Word 6.0

templates directory, after installing Word 7.0, these tabs may not appear

at all, or they may have nothing in them because the templates the

shortcuts point to no longer exist. If this is the case, you will need to

use Word 7.0 to re-create the templates that you used in Word 6.0.

RESOLUTION

==========

You can use one of the following methods to control the way the Word 6.0

templates appear in the New dialog box:

Method 1: Move or copy the templates from the Word 6.0 folder to the Word

          7.0 templates folder (c:\Msoffice\Templates by default). If you

          copy the folder, this duplicates the Word 6.0 templates and

          requires more disk space.

Method 2: Personalize the tab name by using Windows Explorer to locate the

          "Shortcut to Old" or "Shortcut to Workgroup" folder (whichever

          appears in your New dialog box) and click once on the folder

          name. You can then type a new name. This new name will appear on

          the tab in the New dialog box. This method allows you to retain

          both Word 6.0 and Word 7.0 and use one set of templates for both

          versions of Word.

MORE INFORMATION

================

During installation, Setup finds both your user and workgroup templates and

creates a shortcut folder for each location. The shortcuts are stored in

the Office Templates folder, usually C:\Msoffice\Templates. If Setup does

not find workgroup templates, no shortcut folder will be created for it.

Example:

   C:\Winword\Template --> C:\Msoffice\Templates\Shortcut to old

   \\User\Workgrp\Template --> C:\Msoffice\Templates\Shortcut to Workgroup

CAUTION: Deleting your previous templates directory will delete your

previous templates. To best preserve your particular configuration, Setup

does not copy or move your previous templates from their original location

to the Office templates directory. Be sure to copy or move your previous

templates before deleting the original directory.

Troubleshooting Proofing Tool Error Messages in Word 95

Article ID: Q134996

-------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

-------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

=======

The following information discusses error messages specific to the Word for

Windows 95 proofing tools and methods, for the purpose of troubleshooting

those error messages.

MORE INFORMATION

================

Shared Alerts

=============

Spelling, grammar, hyphenation, and thesaurus have four shared main error

alerts, as well as a few others specific to each tool. The shared alerts

are:

   Word cannot find (tool x) for (language x).

   Word cannot read (tool x) for (language x).

   Word cannot open (tool x) for (language x).

   Word cannot load (tool x) for (language x).

These messages narrow down the possible problem. The verb in each message

is the key word.

"Cannot find" means either the tool is not in the expected location on the

disk or, if there is a path listed for the tool, the tool is registered in

a location other than where it is installed.

"Cannot read" means Word can find the tool, but Word is unable to tell how

to use it. This could be caused by a bad or corrupted file.

"Cannot open" means Word can find the tool and is able to understand how it

should be used, but Word can't actually open it. This too is usually a bad

or corrupted file.

"Cannot load" means Word can find the tool, read the tool, and open the

tool, but Word can't load it for use. This can be triggered by a bad file,

a corrupted file, or a low-memory condition.

Troubleshooting the Error Messages

==================================

Error 1: Word cannot start the (tool).

--------------------------------------

Solution: Word is unable to start the tool mentioned in the message due to

some sort of error. Possible causes include:

 - Not enough memory.

 - Your computer hung (stopped responding) while running the tool,

   and  you need to restart Windows before using the tool again.

 - The file or files are correctly installed but incorrectly

   registered (or correctly registered and incorrectly installed).

 - Decompression of the file by Setup was unsuccessful.

Error 2: There is not enough memory to run the (tool).

------------------------------------------------------

Solution: This is the catch-all error in Word.

 - There is a low memory situation. Try closing other programs to clear

   memory or try restarting the system.

 - The problem may be a corrupted document.

Error 3: The (tool) is in use.

------------------------------

Solution: This message should no longer appear with any of the tools, as

all are "re-entrant" after the computer hangs. If the message does appear,

it indicates that you were in the process of using the tool when a file,

application, or system error occurred. These errors usually include hangs

or general protection faults (GP faults).

 - Clear out unnecessary *.tmp files and restart Windows.

Hyphenation-Specific Errors

===========================

Error: Word cannot find the hyphenation file HYPH32.DLL for English (US).

Solution: The document open was created with AutoHyphenation turned on and

you do not have the hyphenation files installed.

General Proofing Tool Information for Word for Windows 95

Article ID: Q134997

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

=======

The following is general information about the proofing tools for Word for

Windows 95.

MORE INFORMATION

================

Filenames

=========

The following are the filenames for the US proofing tools. The spelling and

hyphenation .lex files support both US and UK English. To get the UK

option, format text as UK English.

   Tool              Filenames (.dll, .lex)

   ----              ----------------------

   Speller           Mssp232.dll, Mssp2_en.lex

   Thesaurus         Msth32.dll,  Msth_Am.lex

   Hyphenation       Hyph32.dll,  Hy_En.lex

   Grammar           Gram32.dll,  Gr_Am.lex

Location of the Tools

=====================

For Windows 95

--------------

The speller and thesaurus are placed in the shared Office for Window 95

folder (Program Files\Common Tools\Proof) because these tools may be used

by other Microsoft programs. In a network installation, the shared tools

may be placed elsewhere.

The hyphenation and grammar tools are placed in the private Word for

Windows 95 folder.

For Windows NT 3.51 Setups

--------------------------

The speller and thesaurus are placed in the shared Windows NT folder

(Winnt35\msapps\proof) because these tools may be used by other Microsoft

programs. In a network installation, the shared tools may be placed

elsewhere.

The hyphenation and grammar tools are placed in the private Word for

Windows 95 folder.

The Word for Windows 95 speller and grammar checker should overwrite the

Word 6.0 for Windows NT files, as the version numbers are incremented. The

.lex files for all the tools should be updated, if necessary.

Coexistence with Soft-Art Speller

=================================

The Word for Windows 95 Inso speller (Mssp232.dll) will coexist with the

Soft-Art speller (Mssp32.dll) in the shared directory if they both support

one or more different languages. If not, Word for Windows 95 Setup replaces

the Soft-Art speller with the Word speller, because Word's speller is

better, and so that other programs can use it.

The Soft-Art speller ships with Microsoft Excel for Windows NT, Microsoft

Excel for Windows 95, Windows 95 Exchange, Works for Windows 95, PowerPoint

for Windows 95, FoxPro for Windows 95, and Microsoft Access for Windows 95.

Office for Windows 95 ships only the Inso speller.

.Ini Entries

============

For Word and Office for Windows 95, the path lines for the proofing tools

are written to the registry, instead of to the Winword6.ini file under the

[Microsoft Word] section, and/or to the Win.ini file under the [MS Proofing

Tools] section.

Setup registers the shared tools, including custom dictionaries, to the

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE location under Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Proofing

Tools.

Setup registers the grammar checker and the hyphenator to the

HKEY_CURRENT_USER location under Software\Microsoft\Word\7.0\Proofing

Tools. All the tools are also self-registered to this location if the

registry is damaged or changed and the tools are in one of the expected

locations for self-registering (see more information on the search

hierarchy below).

For Users with Alki PTKs Installed

----------------------------------

Alki has given Microsoft a custom MigrateProofTools action that is

incorporated in the Word and Office for Windows 95 Setup programs. This

action kicks in after all the tools have been installed by the current

Setup being run. MigrateProofTools looks at the entries in the Win.ini and

Winword6.ini files and causes any tools listed therein to be registered in

the Windows 95 registry. This custom action does not move the proofing

tools already installed but instead points to them by means of the

registry.

Installing Word for Windows 95 over Word 6.0

--------------------------------------------

The Word 6.0 proofing dictionaries are fully compatible with Word for

Windows 95. You should have no need to upgrade your Alki Software Proofing

Tool Kit, unless you need a kit containing the Inso thesaurus (Portuguese

Brazilian, Portuguese Iberian, Catalan, or Finnish), or the French,

Italian, or Russian grammar checkers. These tools were not upgraded to 32-

bit packages for Word 6.0 for Windows NT, so if you have the kit for Word

6.0 for Windows, you need to upgrade the kit to get the 32-bit engine.

There may also have been changes to other Eastern European tools. I you

have questions, contact Alki Software.

To upgrade Word 2.0x for Windows proofing tools or to buy additional

foreign language proofing tools, contact Alki Software. Alki supplies

foreign language proofing tool kits and specialized proofing tools

(comprehensive US & UK English speller and hyphenation, which includes

Medical and Legal terms, and comprehensive US English thesaurus).

Installation Note: Alki proposes that the private tools be installed in the

Proof folder, which is a subfolder of the Word program folder, and the

shared tools to be installed in the shared tools directory.

Compatibility with the Softart Proofing Tools

=============================================

Word for Windows 95 continues to be CSAPI compliant and is fully compatible

with the Softart 32-bit Mssp32.dll and its Mssp_xx.lex files.

The thesaurus is now fully CTAPI compliant.

The Inso and Softart thesaurus files are now fully enabled for sharing by

other programs.

Answer Wizard Allows Access to Removed Menu Commands

Article ID: Q135091

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

The Answer Wizard may give you access to a command that you removed from

its menu, or the command functions differently when accessed through the

Answer Wizard than when you choose the command from the menu.

CAUSE

=====

This behavior occurs because the Answer Wizard directly accesses the

original, unmodified Word commands. The result may not match what is

available to you if you have modified your menus (with the Tools Customize

command) or if you substituted custom macros for existing menu commands.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95 version

7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information

here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

SYMPTOMS

========

There is no Browse button in the Style Gallery (Format menu).  By

contrast, Word version 6.0 included a Browse button in the Style

Gallery, which allowed you to select a different template folder.

STATUS

======

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information

here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

Grammar Checker, Word 2.0 Converter Missing from Typical Setup

Article ID: Q135238

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When running Word for Windows 95, you notice several components are

missing. For example:

 - The Grammar command is missing from the Tools menu, or when you look

   under Tools Options, the Grammar tab is unavailable (dimmed).

 - In the File Save As box, the option to save a file as Word 2.x is

   missing.

CAUSE

=====

The grammar checker and the Word 2.0 converter are among the components not

installed with a Typical installation. Shared applications such as WordArt

and Equation Editor, as well as most graphics filters, are also not

installed when you choose Typical during Setup.

RESOLUTION

==========

If you want to add these components, run Setup and add them using the

Add/Remove button.

MORE INFORMATION

================

Below is a list of the components that are not installed with a Typical

setup in an Office installation and in a stand-alone Word installation.

Word 7.0: What is the "Tab as Indent" Feature?

Article ID: Q135293

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

=======

Word 7.0 contains a new feature called Tab As Indent. This feature

provides a quick way to indent and unindent paragraphs by

automatically sensing when a tab character or a paragraph indent is

appropriate. To locate this feature, click Options on the Tools menu,

click the Edit tab, and then select or clear the "Use Tab and

Backspace Keys to set Left Indent" check box. This option is on by

default.

MORE INFORMATION

================

When you type text, the TAB and BACKSPACE keys function as they normally

do, that is, the TAB key will insert a tab character, and the BACKSPACE key

will delete the previous character. However, when you edit and reformat the

document, the TAB and BACKSPACE keys will apply indent paragraph formatting

in .5-inch increments.

For example, consider a document containing the following paragraph:

   Scotland: A constituent country of the United Kingdom comprising the

   northern part of the island of Great Britain and the Hebrides, Shetland

   Islands, and Orkney Islands. Inhabited by Picts in prehistoric times,

   the region was invaded but never conquered by the Romans and split into

   a variety of small kingdoms after the fifth century A.D.*

*The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Third

Edition copyright 1992 by Houghton Mifflin Company. Electronic

version licensed from InfoSoft International, Inc. All rights

reserved.

If you have "Use Tab and Backspace Keys to set Left Indent" selected and

you press the TAB key before you type the text "Scotland: A

constituent...," the TAB key will act as it normally does--a tab character

is inserted at beginning of the paragraph.

However, if you first type the paragraph, then place the insertion point

before the first character in the paragraph, and press TAB, the TAB key

will insert a first-line indent. To remove the first-line indent, press the

BACKSPACE key.

To increase the left indent of the paragraph while maintaining the first-

line indent, type your paragraph, move the insertion point to the beginning

of the paragraph and press TAB two or more times. Each time you press TAB,

the paragraph is indented an additional .5 inch. When you press the

BACKSPACE key, the first-line indent is removed first. As you press the

BACKSPACE key additional times, you decrease the paragraph indentation.

To increase the left indent of the paragraph without increasing the first-

line indent, place your insertion point at the beginning of the second or

subsequent line on the left margin of the paragraph. To decrease the

indent, press the BACKSPACE key.

Remember, if you place the insertion point at the beginning of the first

line, you will get a first-line indent when you press the TAB key. If you

place the insertion point before the second or subsequent line in the

paragraph, you will get a left indent. When the paragraph contains a first

line indent, the BACKSPACE key removes the first line indent before it

decreases the left indent.

How to Enable, Disable Word as Your E-mail Editor in Exchange

Article ID: Q135295

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

=======

Word for Windows 95 includes a component called WordMail that allows you to

create new Exchange messages using most of the features in Word. If you are

using Exchange as your e-mail client interface and have Word and the

WordMail component installed on your computer, you can use WordMail as your

e-mail editor.

MORE INFORMATION

================

The order of installation determines whether WordMail is enabled

automatically. If you installed Exchange before you installed Word for

Windows 95, WordMail is automatically enabled. If you installed Exchange

after you installed Word, WordMail is not enabled. To enable or disable

WordMail, do the following:

1. Start Exchange.

2. On the Compose menu, click WordMail Options.

3. Check or clear the "Enable Word as Email Editor" check box.

4. Click Close.

Disabling WordMail can be an important part of troubleshooting e-mail-

related problems. Testing an e-mail problem after you disable WordMail will

help you determine whether the problem is with Word or with the Exchange

client in general.

To run WordMail with adequate performance, 12 MB of RAM is recommended.

Odd Page Prints on Back of Odd Page with Postscript Driver

Article ID: Q135296

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

SYMPTOMS

========

When you duplex print a document that is set up with odd and even

sections, the odd page will print on the back side of the previous

odd page if there is no even page. This behavior occurs when you

print to an HP LaserJet postscript printer using the Postscript

included with Windows 95.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the postscript

printer driver included with Windows 95. Microsoft is researching

this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft

Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

"Microsoft Word Err=1078 - This file could not be found..."

Article ID: Q135297

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you run a macro that includes the ChDir WordBasic command, you get the

following error message

   Microsoft Word Err=1078

   This file could not be found <Filename>

where <Filename> represents the name of the document you are trying to

open.

CAUSE

=====

The following macro fails because the ChDir command does not recognize a

universal naming convention (UNC) path.

Sub Main

Chdir "\\Servername\Shared"

FileOpen "default.doc"

End Sub

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95,

version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new

information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

RESOLUTION

==========

Use the following WordBasic macro to access the UNC path. You can then

change to the folder and select your file. The macro uses the Windows API

SetCurrentDirectoryA function to change the folder. Note: The

SetCurrentDirectoryA function name is case sensitive.

Declare Sub ChDirUNC Lib "kernel32" Alias "SetCurrentDirectoryA"(Path$)

Upgrading from Microsoft Word Version 6.0

------------------------------------------

1.  Q. In Microsoft Word 6.x, I imported data using ODBC. Why can't I

       do this anymore?

    A. Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) allows programs to import

       data from a variety of data sources. In earlier versions of

       Microsoft Word for Windows (versions 6.0, 6.0a, and 6.0c), the

       ODBC data files were included in the retail package. The

       Microsoft Word for Windows 95 stand-alone package does not

       include the ODBC files and drivers. If you want to import

       dBASE(R) or Microsoft FoxPro(R) data files, use the

       FoxPro/dBASE file converter. The FoxPro/dBASE converter is not

       installed during a typical setup. If you have stand-alone Word

       and want to install the FoxPro/dBASE converter, follow these

       steps:

       1. Start Microsoft Word Setup.

       2. Click Add/Remove.

       3. Highlight Converters and Filters.

       4. Click Change Option.

       5. Highlight Converters.

       6. Click Change Option.

       7. In the Options list, select the FoxPro/dBASE Converter check

          box.

       8. Click OK to close the Converters dialog box, and then click

          OK again.

       9. Click Continue to start installing the files.

       You can use other methods to import data. First, many programs

       support the DDE method of data sharing. If Microsoft Access or

       Microsoft Excel is loaded properly on the same computer as

       Word, you can use the DDE method to import data. Second, there

       may be a specific text converter for the data. FoxPro/dBASE,

       Microsoft Excel, and WordPerfect are examples of data formats

       that have a text converter included with Microsoft Word for

       Windows 95. When you use the Insert Database or the Mail Merge

       Open Data Source dialog boxes, you see a box labeled Select

       Method. If this box is selected, Microsoft Word for Windows 95

       displays a list of the available conversion methods (ODBC, DDE,

       Converter) from which you can select the method you want to

       use.

2.  Q. I purchased the Microsoft Word stand-alone package, which does

       not include the ODBC files and drivers. Can I obtain the ODBC

       files and drivers without having to purchase another retail

       package?

    A. Microsoft will make the ODBC files and drivers available, at no

       cost, as an Application Note in the fall of 1995. The

       Application Note number is WD1198 and is titled "ODBC Add-in."

       When this Application Note is available, you can obtain it from

       the following sources:

        - MSN, The Microsoft Network

        - The Microsoft Partner Network (MSPN)

        - CompuServe(R) and GEnie(TM)

        - The Microsoft Download Service (MSDL)

        - The Internet (Microsoft anonymous ftp server)

        - Microsoft FastTips Technical Library, (800) 936-4100

        - Microsoft Product Support Services, (206) 462-9673

       (ODBC is included in the Microsoft Office for Windows 95 retail

       package and with the stand-alone Microsoft Access retail

       package, scheduled to ship in the fall of 1995.)

3.  Q. Why do I receive error messages such as "Unable to open

       specified library," and why don't my old add-ins, such as

       Internet Assistant and Word Assistant, work with Microsoft Word

       for Windows 95?

    A. Microsoft Word for Windows 95 is a 32-bit word processing

       program. While this design allows Word for Windows 95 to take

       advantage of advanced features in Windows 95, it creates

       compatibility problems with 16-bit components.

       When you receive the "Unable to open specified library" or

       "Word cannot load this add-in" error message, it means that

       Word is trying to gain access to a 16-bit library (a DLL or WLL

       file) and is unsuccessful. Any macro that uses Declare

       statements to gain access to Windows API functions may also

       encounter this problem.

        - To resolve this problem in macros, modify the macros to call

          the appropriate 32-bit version of the Windows API functions,

          or contact the author of the macro for an updated version.

        - To resolve this problem in add-ins, obtain updated 32-bit

          versions of the add-ins.

       Other common macros that may generate WordBasic errors in

       Microsoft Word for Windows 95 are FileOpen, FileSave, and

       FileSaveAs. These macros may make invalid 16-bit API calls, as

       described above, or they may not be written to handle long

       filenames properly.

       To temporarily work around these issues, do the following:

        - Remove any templates or add-ins from the Word Startup

          folder.

        - Use the Organizer, which is located in the (Tools) Options

          dialog box, to temporarily rename any FileOpen, FileSave, or

          FileSaveAs macros to names such as FileOpenOld, FileSaveOld,

          and FileSaveAsOld.

       For more information about these issues, click Answer Wizard on

       the Help menu, click the Find tab, enter "582" (without the

       quotation marks) in the first box, and then click Display.

4.  Q. I want my macros to use the new (File) Open and Advanced Find

       dialog boxes; why do some of my Microsoft Word 6.0 for Windows

       macros that use Open and File Find dialog boxes not work

       correctly in Microsoft Word for Windows 95?

    A. The Microsoft Word for Windows 95 Open dialog box is

       considerably more complex than the Open dialog box in Microsoft

       Word 6.0. Also, Word for Windows 95 does not contain a File

       Find dialog box. The new Open dialog box incorporates the Find

       feature (which is a separate command in Word 6.0) and offers an

       expanded option set.

       Even though the functionality has changed, some of your Word

       6.0 FileOpen and FileFind statements work correctly in Word for

       Windows 95. However, because many of the arguments are new or

       work differently, you may have to edit some of your Word 6.0

       macros that contain FileOpen or FileFind statements so that

       they work correctly in Word for Windows 95. For information

       about the new FileOpen and FileFind statements and how to use

       them correctly, refer to the WordBasic Reference in Microsoft

       Word Help.

       Because of the changes to the File commands in Word for Windows

       95, the Word 6.0 FindFile statement functions quite differently

       in Word for Windows 95. In Word for Windows 95, the following

       arguments are ignored, and you cannot use a Dialog or Dialog()

       instruction to display the Word 6.0 Find File dialog box:

          .SearchName

          .Options

          .PatternMatch

          .View

          .SortBy

          .ListBy

          .SelectedFile

          .ShowFolders

          .Add

          .Delete

       Instead, the Open dialog box is displayed. Furthermore, if you

       select a file in the Open dialog box, the file does not

       actually open because the .SelectedFile argument does not

       function.

       If your Word 6.0 macro uses a Find File dialog box, you need to

       redesign the macro to use a custom dialog box. You can use the

       FindFile statement to return a list of found files and then

       display the list in a custom dialog box. The example for the

       FindFile statement in WordBasic Help shows you how to fill an

       array with a list of found files. If you are not familiar with

       creating custom dialog boxes, consult WordBasic Help or the

       "Microsoft Word Developer's Kit" for more information.

5.  Q. What happened to WordArt, the Grammar Checker, and the dBASE

       converter?

    A. WordArt, the Grammar Checker, and the dBASE converter are not

       installed in a typical setup of Microsoft Word for Windows 95.

       In earlier versions of Microsoft Word, these options were part

       of the Typical Setup option.

       To install WordArt, the Grammar Checker, and the dBASE

       converter, you need to run the Maintenance Setup program for

       Office. To start the Maintenance Setup program, locate the

       Office folder and double-click the Setup icon. On the first

       Setup screen, click Add/Remove, and then continue with the

       appropriate steps below.

       To install WordArt, follow these steps:

       1. Click Office Tools.

       2. Click Change Option.

       3. In the Options list, select the WordArt check box.

       4. Click OK, and then click Continue.

       To install the Grammar Checker, follow these steps:

       1. Click Microsoft Word.

       2. Click Change Option.

       3. In the Options list, click Proofing Tools.

       4. Click Change Option.

       5. In the Options list, select the Grammar check box.

       6. Click OK, and then click Continue.

       4. Click Change Option.

       5. In the Options list, select the "dBASE and Microsoft FoxPro

          Drivers" check box.

       6. Click OK, and then click Continue.

       To install all components for Microsoft Word that were not

       installed with a Typical Installation of Office 95, follow

       these steps:

       1. Click Microsoft Word.

       2. Click Change Option.

       3. Click Select All.

       4. Click OK, and then click Continue.

6.  Q. I am having trouble getting used to the new (File) Open

       dialog box. Are there tips that will make the transition

       easier?

    A. One tip is to make sure that the new Open dialog box advanced

       option Search Subfolders is not checked. When you use Search

       Subfolders, you can query for specific files based on certain

       criteria including filename, content, title, author, size, and

       creation date. While using the Search Subfolders option is

       useful for locating files in unknown subfolders, it slows down

       and affects the display of files in day-to-day File Open usage.

       To clear this option, click Advanced and clear the Search

       Subfolders check box.

       Another tip is to use the My Favorites folder to make retrieval

       of important or often-used documents easier. You may want to

       create shortcuts to documents here for frequent retrieval,

       especially if the documents are located in a folder other than

       the default folder.

       A final tip is to learn the benefits of each of the views (see

       the List, Details, Properties, and Preview buttons at the top

       of the Open dialog box), and to use them appropriately. By

       using the views appropriately, you can customize the Open

       dialog box to make opening files more convenient and efficient.

        - When you select the List button, the filenames contained in

          the specified folder are displayed. The files are listed in

          columns, from left to right.

        - When you select the Details button, more information about

          the file (the filename, file size, file type, and date the

          file was last modified) is displayed. The files are listed

          from top to bottom.

        - When you select the Properties button, a two-paned window is

          displayed that shows the filenames and folder tree in the

          left pane and the document statistics and summary

          information for the selected file in the right pane.

        - When you select the Preview button, a two-paned window is

          displayed that lists the filenames and directory tree in the

          left pane and a preview of the selected file in the right

          pane. For more information about Preview view, see question

          3, "Why do previews take so long to appear in the (File)

          Open dialog box?" in the "Using Microsoft Word for Windows

          95" section below.

7.  Q. What does the tab for "Shortcut to Old Templates" mean in my

       (File) New dialog box?

    A. If there is a tab in the New dialog box labeled "Shortcut to

       Old Templates," Microsoft Word for Windows 95 has created a

       shortcut to the template location of the old version of

       Microsoft Word. For example, version 6.0 of Word was probably

       installed in a folder called C:\Winword, and user templates

       were probably stored in the C:\Winword\Template folder. Because

       Word for Windows 95 uses the MSOffice\Templates folder by

       default, a special tab is needed to make the previous templates

       available. Remember that this tab represents a shortcut to the

       old templates, and you should be cautious when you delete files

       from the old C:\Winword\Template folder. If you delete the

       actual templates from C:\Winword\Template, the Shortcut tab in

       the New dialog box will not appear because it points to an

       empty folder.

       The reason Word 6.0 templates are not copied or moved to your

       MSOffice\Templates directory is to save disk space and to allow

       macros that depend on the Word 6.0 folder structure to work in

       Word for Windows 95.

       To completely eliminate the C:\Winword\Template folder from

       your computer, move or copy all of the .dot files from

       C:\Winword\Template to the MSOffice\Templates folder or to a

       subfolder of this folder.

8.  Q. What do I need to do to convert my Microsoft Word 6.x

       documents into Microsoft Word for Windows 95 documents?

    A. The Microsoft Word for Windows 95 file format is fully

       compatible with the Microsoft Word 6.x feature set. This means

       you can open Word 6.x documents in Word for Windows 95

       automatically and open Word for Windows 95 documents

       automatically in Word 6.x. Note that in this case, features

       that are available only in Word for Windows 95, such as the

       highlighted text feature, will not be available in Word 6.x.

Using Microsoft Word for Windows 95

-----------------------------------

1.  Q. Why do I receive an "Out of Memory" error message when I

       try to start Microsoft Word for Windows 95?

    A. An "Out of Memory" error message may be caused by several

       settings on your computer. Sometimes the problem is not even

       directly related to memory. Unusual printer drivers, high-

       resolution video drivers, and add-in programs may cause this

       error message to appear.

       To ensure that you have enough memory, first check the disk

       space. If you have less than 10 megabytes (MB) of disk space,

       free up a few megabytes. Depending on the complexity of your

       installation and the way you use your system, it may take

       approximately 10 MB of free disk space to start any of the

       Office programs. This requirement is necessary because of the

       way Windows 95 manages and presents memory to the programs.

       Next, check to see if you need to change your virtual memory

       settings. Windows 95 uses virtual memory (free space on your

       hard disk) to allocate programs more memory than your amount of

       physical RAM. The amount of hard disk space used as virtual

       memory adjusts dynamically, based on the current program's

       requirements and the amount of free space available. If you

       used a permanent setting for virtual memory (called a permanent

       swap file) in Windows 3.1, you may want to change it to a

       dynamic swap file in Windows 95. This allows for more efficient

       allocation of resources and helps prevent unwarranted "Out of

       Memory" error messages. To check your virtual memory settings

       and to change them if necessary, follow these steps:

       1. Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click

          Control Panel on the menu that appears.

       2. In Control Panel, double-click the System icon.

       3. In the System Properties dialog box, click the Performance

          tab, and then click Virtual Memory.

       4. In the Virtual Memory dialog box, click "Let Windows manage

          my virtual memory settings (recommended)," and then click

          OK.

       5. Confirm the "Restart Your Computer'' message if it is

          displayed.

       Finally, use the following methods if you need to free up more

       hard disk space:

        - Empty the Recycle Bin.

        - Delete old files in your temporary file folder. To locate

          the temporary file folder and to delete the old files,

          follow these steps:

          1. From any Office program, click Help, and then click About

             <Office Program Name> on the menu that appears.

          2. In the About <Office Program Name> dialog box, click

             System Info.

          3. In the Microsoft System dialog box, note your temporary

             file folder. The temporary file folder is the last item

             listed, and it is usually set to C:\Windows\Temp.

             However, it can be set to another folder.

          4. Close the Microsoft System dialog box, and then quit all

             Office programs that you have open.

          5. Open Windows Explorer and click the Temp folder.

          6. You can safely delete any file that starts with a tilde

             (~) character and is dated earlier than the current date.

          7. Also look for old e-mail attachments or other temporary

             files that you can delete.

        - Remove programs or parts of programs that you do not use.

          For example, you can remove components of Windows or Windows-

          based programs by using the Add/Remove Programs option in

          Control Panel.

       If you determine that disk space is not a factor, check the

       printer driver and video driver by changing them to common

       settings. For example, set the video resolution to 16 color,

       640 x 480 mode, and change the default printer to an HP

       LaserJet IV.

       Other common causes for "Out of Memory" error messages at

       startup are system related. For more information about how to

       troubleshoot these problems, see the answer to the next

       question.

2.  Q. Why do I receive a general protection fault when I start

       Microsoft Word for Windows 95?

    A. There are a number of reasons why you may receive a general

       protection (GP) fault when you start Microsoft Word for Windows

       95. One reason may be that the shared Office AutoCorrect list

       file has become damaged.

       If the file, generally called <Logonname>000.acl (where

       <Logonname> is the name you use to log on), is damaged, a GP

       fault may occur when you start Word. To correct this problem,

       locate the .acl file and rename the file so that Word does not

       try to load it at startup. For example, rename the file

       Autocorrect.old. Because the file no longer has an .acl

       extension, Word does not load the file when it starts. The

       steps below show how to determine if a corrupt AutoCorrect list

       is the problem. Because the steps include renaming the file,

       the AutoCorrect entries can be made available if it turns out

       that the AutoCorrect list was not the source of the problem.

       To locate and rename the .acl file, follow these steps:

       1. Click the Start button, point to Find, and click Files And

          Folders.

       2. In the Find: All Files dialog box, enter "*.acl" (without the

          quotation marks) in the Named box.

       3. In the Look In box, enter "c:\" (without the quotation marks),

          select the Include Subfolders check box, and then click Find Now.

       4. Select the <Logonname>000.acl file (where <Logonname>is the

          name you use to log on), and then press the F2 key.

       5. Rename the file <Logonname>.bad, and then press ENTER.

       Other settings, such as the default printer driver, the

       Normal.dot template, and the video driver properties may also

       cause this problem. The next step in troubleshooting is to

       change those properties. For example, change the printer driver

       to a new, different driver, change the video settings to 16

       color, 640 x 480 mode, and rename the Normal.dot file

       Normal.old.

       To change the default printer driver, follow these steps:

       1. Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click

          Printers.

       2. In the Printers window, use the right mouse button to click

          a printer that is not the default printer, and on the menu

          that appears click Set As Default.

       To change the video settings, follow these steps:

       1. Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click

          Control Panel.

       2. In Control Panel, double-click the Display icon.

       3. In the Display Properties dialog box, click the Settings

          tab.

       4. Under Color Palette, select the 16 Color option.

       5. Under Desktop, slide the indicator to the left until it

          registers 640 by 480 pixels, and then click OK.

       To rename the Normal.dot file, follow these steps:

       1. Click the Start button, point to Find, and click Files And

          Folders.

       2. In the Find: All Files dialog box, enter "normal.dot" (without

          the quotation marks) in the Named box.

       3. In the Look In box, enter "c:\" (without the quotation marks),

          select the Include Subfolders check box, and then click Find Now.

       4. Select the Normal.dot file, and then press the F2 key.

       5. Rename the file Normal.old, and then press ENTER.

3.  Q. Why do previews take so long to appear in the (File) Open

       dialog box?

    A. When you select a document in the Name list of the Open dialog

       box when the Preview button is selected, Microsoft Word

       presents a preview of the document in the box to the right.

       There are two preview types: "full preview" and "thumbnail."

       If the hourglass appears and it seems to take a long time

       before the preview appears, Microsoft Word is actually opening

       the document to show the preview. This type of preview is

       called "full preview," and performance is even slower if the

       document selected in the Name box is located on a network

       server.

       A "thumbnail" preview, which is like a snapshot of the

       document's first page, is quicker than full preview because a

       thumbnail is an OLE object. If you want your document to appear

       as a thumbnail preview in the Preview box instead of as a full

       preview, click Properties on the File menu while the document

       is open, click the Summary tab, and select the Save Preview

       Picture check box. Note that this property is specific to the

       document; selecting this property does not change all previews

       to thumbnail previews.

       To work around this problem in general, select one of the other

       views besides Preview in the Open dialog box.

       To ensure the fastest preview possible, make sure the Save

       Picture Preview check box is selected in the (File) Properties

       dialog box. If the Prompt For Document Properties check box is

       selected on the Save tab of the (Tools) Options dialog box,

       then when you initially save a new document, save an existing

       document to a new location, or rename an existing document, the

       Properties dialog box appears, allowing you to select or clear

       the Save Picture Preview check box. The last setting for the

       Save Picture Preview option will be retained when the

       Properties dialog box reappears. In the event that the Prompt

       For Document Properties check box is cleared, be sure to select

       the Save Picture Preview check box to avoid unwanted delays

       when using the Preview button in the Open dialog box. Again,

       the last setting will be retained as the default selection.

       NOTE: Using the Save Picture Preview option may increase the

       file size. The increase is typically negligible and varies

       depending on the size of the document.

4.  Q. Why do I receive messages about "corrupt" documents from the

       Find Fast application?

    A. The Find Fast application works in the background to index

       Office documents so that document retrieval is faster. If Find

       Fast encounters a damaged document during the indexing, it

       reports the damaged document. To stop the warning message from

       appearing, remove the problem document from the indexed drive.

       It is important to note that Find Fast does not cause the

       problem; the problem already exists, and Find Fast just reports

       it. Therefore, focus your troubleshooting on cleaning up the

       bad document instead of looking for a problem with Find Fast.

       The Office Setup program installs Find Fast in the Windows 95

       Startup folder so that all Office documents are indexed

       automatically at system startup and periodically at two-hour

       intervals. Find Fast must be able to gain access to document

       contents to successfully complete the indexing process. Find

       Fast may stop and display the following error message when it

       attempts to open and index a damaged Microsoft Word document:

          Error: Find Fast could not index the file "C:\My

          Documents\Test.doc." To restart Find Fast, remove the file,

          and then double-click the Find Fast icon in the Windows

          Control Panel.

       To resolve the problem, remove or correct the damaged document,

       and then restart Find Fast.

5.  Q. I am using Microsoft Word as my e-mail editor in Microsoft

       Exchange. Sometimes it seems like my computer switches back and

       forth between Word and the Exchange Inbox. Also, how do I

       disable Word as my e-mail editor?

    A. When you use Microsoft Word as your e-mail editor, a "hidden"

       instance of Word is loaded into the computer's memory. Even

       though it seems that there are two separate programs running

       (Word as an e-mail editor and Word itself), they are really the

       same instance of Word. This can lead to unusual responses from

       Word in some cases. These "one instance" issues may manifest

       themselves in several ways. For example, if you are in Word and

       you click Open on the File menu and then try to switch to "New

       Message--Microsoft Word" (that is, WordMail), the Open dialog

       box still maintains the focus. You must dismiss the dialog box

       before switching to WordMail.

       To disable Word as your e-mail editor, click WordMail Options

       on the Compose menu in Exchange, and clear the "Enable Word as

       Email Editor" check box.

       Other functionality that may not work as expected when you use

       Word as your e-mail editor includes:

        - The Record, Create, and Edit buttons are unavailable

          (dimmed) when you try to create a macro in WordMail. The

          only options available are Run and Delete after you select

          an existing macro.

        - Text in the Subject line is not handled by Word. Therefore,

          spell checking, AutoCorrect, and undo/redo are not available

          in the Subject line.

        - You cannot gain access to many of the toolbars in Word (and

          some general menu commands) while the insertion point is in

          any of the header wells (such as To:, From:, and so on).

        - The Exchange editor has buttons for high priority, low

          priority, read receipt, and so on. In WordMail, all of this

          functionality exists, but you must use the Properties button

          on the toolbar, the Properties command on the File menu, or

          press ALT+ENTER to gain access to this functionality.

        - The Exchange editor has commands and options that are

          different in WordMail. For example, in WordMail, the Next

          and Previous commands appear on the File menu, and Show-Bcc

          is toggled with a check box in the Properties dialog box.

        - The shortcut key (accelerator) for "To:" works only when the

          insertion point is in the header.

        - There is no support for "Send on behalf of;" otherwise known

          as the From field.

        - There is no Print Preview command in WordMail. In WordMail,

          Page Layout view can be used for most of this functionality.

        - There are many shortcut keys (accelerators) in the Exchange

          editor that conflict with the shortcut keys in Microsoft

          Word. Email.dot contains the following shortcut keys so that

          you can still perform the same actions:

          Function      Exchange editor          WordMail

                        shortcut keys            shortcut keys

          ----------------------------------------------------

          Delete        CTRL+D                   CTRL+D

          Message

          Forward       CTRL+F                   CTRL+SHIFT+F

          Next          CTRL+> OR CTRL+. or      CTRL+SHIFT+N

                        CTRL+SHIFT+N

          Previous      CTRL+< OR CTRL+, OR      CTRL+SHIFT+P

                        CTRL+SHIFT+P

          Properties    ALT+ENTER                ALT+ENTER

          Address Book  CTRL+SHIFT+B             CTRL+SHIFT+B

          Reply to      CTRL+R                   CTRL+R

          sender

          Reply to all  CTRL+SHIFT+R             CTRL+SHIFT+R

          To create your own template to use with WordMail, make a

          copy of Email.dot. Give the new file a different name, and

          make your changes in the new file. By copying Email.dot, you

          carry over the shortcut keys and their associated macros.

          This also ensures that the four message header styles (which

          are applied to forwarded messages and printed messages) are

          appropriately named in the new template.

6.  Q. I get unwanted results from AutoCorrect and AutoFormat as I

       type. For example, if I begin a paragraph with "F. John Doe,"

       Microsoft Word tries to automatically number the paragraph

       after I press ENTER. How can I avoid these results without

       disabling AutoCorrect and AutoFormat?

    A. AutoCorrect and AutoFormat use internal algorithms to

       intelligently guess at the correct times to adjust text. These

       algorithms can lead to unwanted corrections in some cases.

       To prevent Microsoft Word from automatically numbering a

       paragraph that begins with a first-name initial, click

       AutoFormat on the Format menu, click Options, select AutoFormat

       As You Type, and clear the Automatic Numbered Lists check box.

       (You can toggle other AutoFormat options on or off as well.)

       Click OK, and then click Cancel.

       To avoid incorrect AutoCorrect assumptions involving

       capitalization, create an AutoCorrect exception. On the Tools

       menu, click AutoCorrect, and then click Exceptions. Make the

       appropriate entry, click OK, and then click OK again.

       You can also automatically format other items, such as when to

       use heading styles, and when to replace "Straight Quotes" with

       "Smart Quotes."

7.  Q. Sometimes pressing the TAB key does not insert a tab character

       on the screen. Instead my text is adjusted to the left by a

       small amount. What is happening?

    A. Microsoft Word for Windows 95 includes an editing feature

       called Tab As Indent. Usability testing shows that when the

       desired result is actually an indented line or paragraph, many

       users start by pressing the TAB key. When you have Tab As

       Indent turned on, Word tries to intelligently guess when an

       actual tab is desired and inserts a tab character in those

       situations, but Word may not guess correctly all the time. You

       can disable the Tab As Indent feature by clicking Options on

       the Tools menu, clicking the Edit tab, and clearing the "Use

       Tab and Backspace Keys to set Left Indent" check box.

       When this feature is turned on, pressing the TAB key while the

       insertion point is at the left side of a second or greater line

       in a paragraph results in the paragraph being indented by .5

       inch from the left margin. Pressing the BACKSPACE key at this

       point would then move the paragraph back to the original

       margin. To enter a tab character instead of apply an indent,

       press CTRL+TAB.

8.  Q. I am not getting the answers that I need from the Answer

       Wizard. What can I do?

    A. The key to getting the best results from the Answer Wizard is

       to phrase your request with the best combination of keywords.

       Your request should uniquely describe your topic but exclude

       extraneous information. For example, if you want help with

       headers and footers, make sure you use the word "header"

       specifically, because the word "header" would not be used in

       any other topic. Be sure to read the list of suggested topics.

       Often the content of a topic is more meaningful than the title

       indicates.

       You may also want to use the Contents, Index, and Find tabs in

       Help. Each of these methods is helpful in finding information.

       Additional Tips for Using the Answer Wizard

        - Use two or more words in the question. For instance, if you

          type "tabs?", you will receive a different answer than if

          you type "tabs in tables?"

        - Avoid noise words. Noise words are common words that may be

          present in many of the topics and only confuse the search by

          offering too many alternatives. If you are not getting the

          correct results, remove the noise words from your question.

          Noise words include "put," "make," "start," and "get."

        - Check your spelling. The Answer Wizard cannot interpret

          misspelled words.

        - If the Answer Wizard finds more than seven "How Do I" or

          five "Tell Me About" topics, you will be asked to rephrase

          the question. Use some of the above tips to rephrase your

          question.

        - Browse the results of your search; a title may provide cross

          references to other subjects or to additional information

          that would also be helpful.

       About the Answer Wizard

       The Help engine in Windows 95 displays a three-tab dialog box;

       these tabs include Contents, Index, and Find (similar to Search

       in earlier versions of Help). Microsoft Office for Windows 95

       programs include a fourth tab called the Answer Wizard. The

       Answer Wizard uses natural-language questions to locate

       information about tasks and features that is stored in a

       database of common terminology.

       Topic Areas

       After the Answer Wizard searches on a question, it displays

       either two or three categories under "2. Select a topic, and

       then click Display."

       Category     Description

       ------------------------------------------------------------

       How Do I?    When you type in a simple question such as "How

                    do I bold text?", the Answer Wizard searches

                    for references to applying bold formatting.

                    When the database search is complete, the

                    Answer Wizard returns any "how to" entries

                    relating to bolding text, as well as "Tell Me

                    About" and "Programming" information. If there

                    are more than a few entries relating to how to

                    bold text, the Answer Wizard warns that you

                    should rephrase the question.

                    In some cases, the Answer Wizard shows how to

                    accomplish a task. For instance, if you ask the

                    Answer Wizard "How do I bold text?", the first

                    item returned under "How Do I" may be "Change

                    text and numbers to bold." If you select this

                    item and click Display, Microsoft Word is

                    brought forward, and the Answer Wizard steps

                    you through the formatting process using the

                    Bold button on the Formatting toolbar.

       Tell Me      In addition to how-to instructions, the Answer

       About        Wizard database is cross-referenced with

                    informational cards and tips. For example, if

                    bold formatting is the topic and you would like

                    to know more about character formatting, select

                    "Character formatting" under Tell Me About.

       Programming  The Programming section may or may not appear,

                    depending on the question. If there is any

                    reference for accomplishing the task

                    programmatically, the Answer Wizard may offer

                    information in this section. Displaying a topic

                    in this section opens the Programming Reference

                    for the appropriate product.

9.  Q. Does Microsoft Word for Windows 95 include Visual Basic(R) for

       Applications?

    A. Microsoft Word for Windows 95 does not include Visual Basic for

       Applications. WordBasic, which is the current macro language,

       has been expanded to take advantage of the new feature set.

       Microsoft Word can still be used as an OLE automation server

       and provide information to other programs that use Visual Basic

       for Applications.

Printing

--------

1.  Q. When I click the Properties button in the Print dialog box,

       either I get a general protection fault, or the button just

       does not work. What causes this and how can I correct it?

    A. This is a known issue for Microsoft Word for Windows 95 and

       occurs when the name of the printer either contains the word

       "on" or ends with ")" (a closing parenthesis character ). If

       you are running Microsoft Word for Windows 95 with Windows NT

       3.51, the result is a general protection (GP) fault. If you are

       using Windows 95, the Properties button does not trigger any

       action.

       To work around this problem, rename the printer so that the

       name does not include the word "on" or end with the ")"

       character. To rename the printer in Windows NT 3.51, use the

       Print Manager icon in the Main group. To rename the printer in

       Windows 95, click the Start menu, point to Settings, click

       Printers, click the printer name, and type the new name.

       Note that if you are changing the printer name in Windows NT

       3.51, you must perform these steps on the server to which the

       printer is attached unless you have chosen to copy the printer

       driver to the local workstation. Windows NT defaults to using

       the printer driver from the server. If the printer driver is on

       the server, you can only change the printer name on the server.

2.  Q. Why do my EPS graphics print in lower resolution in Microsoft

       Word for Windows 95 than in Microsoft Word 6.x?

    A. The encapsulated PostScript(TM) (EPS) graphics filter that ships

       with Microsoft Word for Windows 95 contains a problem that

       causes some EPS graphics to print incorrectly. Most EPS

       graphics consist of two components: the PostScript code, which

       tells the printer what to print, and a bitmapped header, which

       provides a screen preview. Microsoft Word 6.x correctly prints

       only the PostScript code, whereas Microsoft Word for Windows 95

       incorrectly prints both the PostScript code and the bitmapped

       header. If the bitmapped header is a low-resolution image

       (which it commonly is), the resulting printout has a low

       resolution. You can work around this problem if the program

       that created the EPS graphic file has the option to not include

       the bitmapped header in the file. When the bitmapped header is

       not present, Microsoft Word can print the image in a higher

       resolution.

       More specifically, an EPS graphics file is a standard

       PostScript language file with an optional bitmap screen preview

       included in the format. An EPS file is generally included as an

       illustration in other documents, such as a Microsoft Word

       document. If an EPS file contains an embedded TIFF or WMF

       display image, a representation of the image is displayed in

       Microsoft Word for Windows 95. The quality of the display image

       depends on the resolution of the TIFF or WMF image embedded in

       the EPS file. Because such display images are intended

       primarily as positioning aids in page composition, their

       resolution is often low.

       When you print to a PostScript printer, the PostScript commands

       should be the only information from the PostScript section of

       the file sent to the printer, regardless of whether a TIFF or

       WMF display image is embedded in the EPS file. The on-screen

       resolution of the display image should not have an effect on

       the printing quality of the document. However, because

       Microsoft Word for Windows 95 incorrectly prints the screen

       preview in addition to the PostScript code, the print quality

       is affected.

       When you print to a non-PostScript printer and a TIFF or WMF

       display image is embedded in the EPS file, Word for Windows 95

       incorrectly prints the TIFF or WMF image. As indicated above,

       such images are normally of low resolution (for example, 128 x

       128 bits), and therefore, the resolution of the printed image

       is relatively low. If a document contains an EPS file without

       an embedded TIFF or WMF display image, or if the image is

       considered invalid by the converter, only a bounding box is

       printed on a non-PostScript printer. This behavior is normal

       because EPS graphics are designed to print only to PostScript

       printers.

3.  Q. Are there any plans to change the EPS printing behavior in

       Microsoft Word for Windows 95?

    A. Microsoft will soon have available an Application Note with a

       correction for the EPS printing problem. The Application Note

       number is WC1199 and is titled "EPS Filter." When the

       Application Note is available, you can obtain it from the

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you use the Object command on the Insert menu to activate Microsoft

Word Art 2.0, you receive the following error message:

   The server application, source file, or item cannot be found. Make

   sure the application is properly installed, and that it has not been

   deleted, moved, or renamed.

CAUSE

=====

This problem occurs when you try to register Word Art 2.0 by double-

clicking the Wordart2.reg file. The Wordart2.reg file contains an error

that points all references to Word Art in the Windows Registry to

C:\Windows\Msapps, regardless of what folder Word Art is installed in.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95,

version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new

information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND

==========

Use Windows Explorer to open the Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft

Shared\WordArt folder, and double-click Wrdart32.exe to correctly register

WordArt. The following message will appear:

   Wordart may only be used to embed objects.  It must be started from

   within another application.

Click OK, and return to Word. WordArt is now registered correctly.

If the WordArt folder is absent, run Setup again to reinstall Word Art 2.0.

Documents Created from Desktop Don't Reflect Normal Template

Article ID: Q136216

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Windows 95

--------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

Word documents created by clicking the Desktop in Windows 95 do not

reflect fonts or other settings stored in the Normal template.

However, changing the default font while in such a document changes both

the default document that appears when you create a document in this manner

and changes the default font of the Normal template.

NOTE: To create a Word document from the Windows 95 Desktop, use your right

mouse button to click the DeskTop, point to New, and choose Microsoft Word

Document. Word copies the file Winword.doc to the DeskTop and gives it a

generic name.

CAUSE

=====

A document created from the Windows Desktop is not created directly from

Word's Normal template but is created from a document that resides in the

Windows\ShellNew folder. This document is named Winword.doc and is based

on Word's Normal.dot template.

WORKAROUND

==========

Method 1: To use the Normal template's formatting in this document, use the

          Automatically Update Document Styles check box.

          a. With the right mouse button, click the Windows 95 Start

             button.

          b. Click Explore.

          c. Find the Windows\ShellNew folder.

             If you do not find the ShellNew folder under the Windows

             directory:

             1) On the Explore View menu, click Options.

             2) Click the View tab. Under Hidden Options, select Show All

                Files, and then choose OK.

          d. Select Winword.doc.

          e. From the File menu, choose Open. Word starts.

          f. On the File menu, click Templates.

          g. Click Attach. Select the Normal.dot file located in the

             MSOffice\Templates folder and click Open.

          h. Select the Automatically Update Document Styles check box, and

             click OK.

          i. On the File menu, click Save.

          j. On the File menu, click Close.

Method 2: Modify the Winword.doc file:

          a. On the Word File menu, click Open.

          b. Change the folder location to Windows\ShellNew.

             If you do not find the ShellNew folder under the Windows

             directory:

             1) On the Explore View menu, click Options.

             2) Click the View tab. Under Hidden Options, select Show All

                Files, and then choose OK.

          c. Select the Winword.doc file and click OK.

          d. With the document open, change the formatting to match the

             formatting of your Normal template.

          e. On the File menu, click Save.

          f. On the File menu, click Close.

Article ID: Q136217

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Windows 95

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

=======

When you insert a Microsoft Equation 2.0 object, Equation opens with in-

place editing. This article describes how to use the RegOptions macro

supplied with Word to make Equation open in a separate window.

MORE INFORMATION

================

Use the RegOptions macro to change the Windows Registry settings that

control this behavior:

1. Activate the Macros7.dot file, which contains the RegOptions macro:

   a. On the File menu, click Templates.

   b. Click Add.

   c. Change the folder to the Winword\Macros subfolder (for example,

      C:\MSOffice\Winword\Macros).

   d. Click the Macros7.dot file to select it, and click OK. This adds the

      Macros7 template to the "Global Templates and Add-ins" box. Click OK.

   e. On the Tools menu, click Macro.

   f. In the Macros Available In list, click Macros7.dot (Global

      Template). Click OK. Click OK again.

   g. The Run Sample Macros button appears. Click this button.

2. Run the RegOptions macro by clicking the down arrow and selecting

   RegOptions from the list. Click OK.

   a. In the Section box, select Equation Editor Options.

   b. In the Option box, select ForceOpen.

   c. In the Setting box, erase Using Defaults, and type "1" (without

      the quotation marks).

   d. Click Change.

   e. Click OK.

   A message appears, stating "In order for some Word-related Registry

   settings changes to take effect, it may be necessary to exit then

   restart Word," but it is not necessary to restart Word. The next time

   you insert an Equation object in any application, it will open in its

   own window, instead of opening in-place.

Table With Borders And Shading Prints Slower In Word 7.0

Article ID: Q136454

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you print a Word 7.0 document that contains a large table with

borders and/or shading to an HP Laserjet 4 printer, the document may

print significantly slower than when you print the same document from

Word 6.0 under Windows 95.

This problem does not occur when printing to an HP Laserjet IIIsi or

4si. Changing the printer driver settings does not correct the

problem; in fact, this may make the delay even more noticeable.

STATUS

======

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in

the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND

==========

Use the HP Laserjet IIIsi or 4si printer driver.

Callout Box Superimposed Over Mail Header In WordMail

Article ID: Q136455

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When using a callout box at the top of a WordMail message, the

callout box appears superimposed over the mail header area when you

choose Reply or Forward.

CAUSE

=====

A callout box is positioned relative to its anchor paragraph. It

works independent of the mail header and therefore is not moved or

affected by the mail header.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95

version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new

information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes

available.

WORKAROUND

==========

Method 1. Manually move the callout box.

Method 2. Position the callout so that it will not interfere with the mail

          header.

 --------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Word for Windows NT, version 6.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

The Style Area Width is not retained when you reopen your document

and switch to Normal view.  This behavior occurs when you save and

close the document from Page Layout view.  By contrast, if you save

and close the document from Normal view, the Style Area Width is

preserved.  This behavior is different from the 16-bit versions of

Word for Windows.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows NT,

version 6.0 and Word for Windows 95, version 7.0. Microsoft is

researching this problem and will post new information here in the

Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

Format Shortcut Displays When You Double-Click Spelling Icon

Article ID: Q136466

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you double-click the Spelling icon on the Status bar, the Format

shortcut menu appears instead of the Spelling shortcut menu.

CAUSE

=====

This behavior occurs when you spell check a selection that contains a

combination of text immediately followed by the result of a field

code, without a space separating the two.

When you double-click the Spelling icon on the Status bar, Word

selects the first misspelled word.  When there is no space between

the text and the field code, the text and the field code are treated

as one word.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95

version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new

information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes

available.

 - Microsoft Word Viewer for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Windows 95

 - Microsoft Windows NT version 3.51

----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

=======

The text of the following article is available for download, along with

Word Viewer for Windows 95, version 7.0, on the online information sources

mentioned below. In addition to the following text, the WWW (World Wide

Web) page includes a hyperlink for automatic download of Word Viewer.

On online information services, Word Viewer for Windows 95 is available as

Wd95view.exe. The text of the following article is available as

Wd95view.txt.

MORE INFORMATION

================

      Microsoft(R) Word Viewer for Windows(R) 95

      ==========================================

Microsoft announces the release of Microsoft Word Viewer for

Windows 95, a small program that enables users who do not

own Microsoft Word for Windows to view and print Word

documents exactly as they appear in Word. Word Viewer gives

users the flexibility to view page layout, zoom, outline,

headers and footers, footnotes, and annotations. Word Viewer

allows users to read and print Word documents, but it does

not allow them to edit such files. However, users can copy

information from the document and activate OLE objects from

within Word Viewer.

Thanks to Word Viewer, people who own any version of

Microsoft Word for Windows or Word for the Macintosh(R),

versions 4.0 and later, can now share their documents with

users who do not own Microsoft Word. We encourage users to

copy Word Viewer freely and distribute it to friends and co-

workers along with documents they have created in Word

format. Instructions for distribution can be found later in

this document.

Use Word Viewer to View Word Documents Posted on the Internet

-------------------------------------------------------------

This product also allows users who want to post richly

formatted Word documents on the Internet to share such

documents with people who do not own Microsoft Word. To use

this product for viewing Word documents on the Internet,

users must configure their Internet browsing tool to

recognize Word Viewer as a helper application. Please

consult the user's manual of your browsing software to learn

how to achieve this. Documents with the extension ".doc"

will be recognized by Word Viewer as Word files.

Microsoft Word Viewer Is Freeware!

----------------------------------

This product is "freeware." Users are encouraged to copy and

distribute Word Viewer to friends and co-workers, or post it

on public electronic bulletin boards.

While Word Viewer allows you to view and print Word

documents using the look and feel of Microsoft Word, the

retail version of Microsoft Word contains all the award-

winning document creation and editing features that make

everyday word processing tasks easier. If you do not own

Microsoft Word and would like to join the 21 million users

who have made it the world's best selling word processor,

please contact Microsoft Sales Information Center at (800)

426-9400 for pre-sales information in the United States. If

you are outside the United States, contact the Microsoft

subsidiary for your area. To locate your subsidiary, call

the Microsoft International Sales Information Center at

(206) 936-8661.

System Requirements for Using Word Viewer

-----------------------------------------

 - A personal computer with a 386DX or higher processor

 - Microsoft Windows 95 operating system or Microsoft

   Windows NT(TM) Workstation operating system 3.51 or later

 - 4 MB of memory for Windows 95 (6 MB recommended)

 - 12 MB of memory for Windows NT Workstation

 - 3 MB of hard disk space (6 MB free for installation

   only)

 - VGA or higher resolution graphics card

 - Microsoft Mouse or compatible pointing device

Installing Microsoft Word Viewer

--------------------------------

Word Viewer for Windows 95 is available on the CD-ROM

version of Windows 95. (It is not distributed on the Windows

95 floppy disks.) On the CD-ROM, Word Viewer is located in

the Other\Wordview folder.

Word Viewer is also available for download from several

online information services, listed below under "Sources for

Word Viewer." To obtain Word Viewer, download Wd95view.exe

and place it in an empty folder on your hard disk.

Wd95view.exe is a compressed, self-extracting file. After

you download Wd95view.exe, run it to extract the files it

contains.

Read the Install.txt file, then run Setup.exe to install Word

Viewer. Note that Setup must install Word Viewer into a

different folder than the one where you extracted the files.

Setup will propose "Program Files\Wordview" as the default

location on Windows 95 (C:\WordView on Windows NT 3.51).

If Word Viewer Setup detects Word for Windows (version 6.0

or later) on your computer, it will prompt you to determine

which application should open Word documents by default. For

example, the default program is used to open files with .doc

or .dot file extensions when they are double-clicked in the

Windows 95 shell or Windows 95 Explorer. If you choose Open

With Word, Word for Windows will be used by default to open

Word files. If you choose Open With Viewer, Word Viewer will

be used by default to open Word files.

NOTE: If you choose Open With Viewer and you later want to

restore Word for Windows as the default program for Word

documents, you must run the Word for Windows (or Office for

Windows) Setup program again and choose Reinstall.

After Word Viewer is installed, you can delete the folder

you ran Setup from. However, if you plan to distribute Word

Viewer, either online or on floppy disks, you will need the

files in the original folder. See "Distributing Word Viewer"

below for more information.

To run Word Viewer, click the Start button on the Windows 95

Taskbar and point to Programs. Microsoft Word Viewer should

be located there. Alternatively, you can run Word Viewer by

double-clicking the Wordview.exe file in your

"Program Files\Wordview" folder. (On Windows NT 3.51, Setup

will create an icon for Microsoft Word Viewer, with the proposed

location being the Microsoft Office group.)

For additional information on using Word Viewer, see

Readme.doc, located in the same directory as Word Viewer. To

view this file, run Word Viewer, click Open on the File

menu, open your Word Viewer folder, click Readme.doc, and

click OK.

Distributing Word Viewer

------------------------

If you are posting Word Viewer to a Word Wide Web (WWW) home

page, please post both the Wd95view.exe and the HTML

equivalent of this document. (The HTML version can be

located at http://www.microsoft.com/msoffice/freestuff/

msword/download/viewers/viewer95/default.htm.)

If you choose to distribute Word Viewer on floppy disks, you

will need the individual files that were extracted when you

double-clicked Wd95view.exe. Copy these files (not including

Wd95view.exe) onto two formatted high-density floppy disks

for further distribution. (You will need two disks because

all the files will not fit on one disk.)

NOTE: Setup for Word Viewer can NOT be run directly from

these floppy disks. To install Word Viewer from these disks,

all the files from the two disks must be copied into one

empty folder on the hard disk. The user must then run Setup

from that folder. Please label the disks with these

instructions when distributing them to other users.

IMPORTANT: Merely copying the product files from your

installation of Word Viewer to another computer will not

install Word Viewer properly. Word Viewer must be installed

using Setup.exe to properly configure its settings in the

Registry.

Word Viewer Technical Support

-----------------------------

Technical support for Word Viewer is found in a technical

white paper that is available on FastTips, on Library 2 in

the MSWORD forum on CompuServe(R), and on the Microsoft WWW

server.

The Readme.doc in the Word Viewer folder contains an

extensive list of online sources for additional technical

support information.

Microsoft also offers Word Viewer support on the standard

Microsoft Word for Windows Product Support Services phone

line, at (206) 462-9673.

forward slash [/] instead of a backslash [\] character). To

download the file, type the following commands, pressing

ENTER after each line:

   cd /softlib/mslfiles

   bi

   get wd95view.exe

NOTE: The "bi" command changes the download protocol to

at (800) 360-7561. There is a shipping and handling charge

for the product. If you are outside the United States,

contact the Microsoft subsidiary for your area. To locate

your subsidiary, call the Microsoft International Sales

Information Center at (206) 936-8661. If you obtain Word

Viewer on disk from the Microsoft Order Desk, the Setup

program can be run directly from Disk 1.

Can't Seem to Use MS Access Files, *.MDB, or DDE with Word95

Article ID: Q137076

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0

 - Microsoft Access, version 2.0

 - Microsoft Windows 95

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS

========

When you use the Mail Merge or Insert Database commands to obtain data from

an Access data file, the option for "MS Access Databases (*.mdb)" does not

appear in the "Files Of Type" list, and the DDE method of obtaining the

data is not available.

CAUSE

=====

In order for Word to show *.mdb files or to use DDE with Access, the Access

program directory must be listed correctly in the Windows Registry

Extensions key. Typical installations of Access update the Win.Ini file

with extension information, but information in the Win.Ini file is not to

the appropriate Registry key in Windows 95.

STATUS

======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word version 7.0 for

Windows 95. We are researching this problem and will post new information

here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

RESOLUTION

==========

There are two workarounds for this problem. The first method is to add the

Access program directory to the environment path. The second method

involves correcting the extensions data key in the Windows Registry.

Method 1: Add Access to the Environment path

          1. Start WordPad.

          2. From the File menu, choose Open.

          3. In the File Name box, type "c:\autoexec.bat". Click OK.

             a. If the file is not found, click Cancel and type the

                following:

                PATH=<path to Access folder>

             where <path to Access folder> is the location of your Access

             folder, such as

                C:\OFFICE\ACCESS

             b. From the File menu, choose Exit. When asked if you want to

                save changes, answer Yes.

             c. In the File Name box, type "c:\autoexec.bat" (without

                the quotation marks).

             d. In the Save As Type box, choose "Text Document - MS-DOS

                Format".

             e. Click OK. Continue with step 7.

          4. Find the line that begins with PATH.

          5. Place the insertion point at the end of this line. Type a

             semicolon (;) and the path to the Access program folder.

          6. Save the file and exit WordPad.

          7. Restart the computer.

          Word will now be able to show *.mdb files and to use DDE.

Method 2: Correct the Registry

          For information about how to edit the registry, view the Changing

          Keys And Values online Help topic in Registry Editor

          (REGEDIT.EXE). Note that you should make a backup copy of the

          registry files (SYSTEM.DAT and USER.DAT) before you edit the

          registry.

          WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious

          problems that may require you to reinstall Windows 95. Microsoft

          cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use

          of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own

          risk.

          1. Click the Start menu and choose Run. In the Open box, type

             "Regedit" (without the quotation marks)

          2. Open the "HK_CURRENT_USER" entry.

          3. Open the Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Extensions

             key.

          4. From the Edit Menu, choose New and select "String Value".

          5. In place of "New Value #1", type "MDB" (without quotes) and

             press Enter.

          6. Double-click on the word "MDB". A dialog box appears.

          7. Type "C:\ACCESS\MSACCESS.EXE ^.MDB" (without the quotation

             marks). Be sure this path reflects the location of Access on

             your computer. Press Enter.

          8. From the Edit Menu, choose New and select "String Value".

          9. In place of "New Value #1", type "MDA" (without the quotation

             marks) and press ENTER.

          10. Double-click on the word "MDA".

          11. Type "C:\ACCESS\MSACCESS.EXE ^.MDA" (without the quotation

              marks) and press Enter.

              The new MDA entry is not required in order for Word to use

              DDE, but it duplicates information that was in the Win.Ini

              file.
