Microsoft Word Documents are stuck on formatting?

Strange....(I'm a secretary and use word all the time).   \n\nWhat I would try, is to move the "P" thingy (I know what icon you mean!!!) back to Customise, close up, then open up Customise and drag it back to your taskbar and see if it works again.\n\nIf not, then I would search for a file called Normal.Dot and delete that ,although that gets rid of, say, your additions to AutoText and maybe some others.

To keep the formating you will have to look at something like \nFineReader 8.0 Professional Edition available here:\nhttp://www.abbyy.com\nYou can select what should stay image and what should become text for editing

sure you downloaded for the correct version of office you are using? Also, copying it to C: might make a difference perhaps.

A quick way of getting rid of all formatting is to use a middle stage.\n\nCopy as usual by highlighting the text and either right click, 'copy' or <ctrl> + <c> and then paste into notepad.\n\nThen copy that and past into whatever else you want.\n\nThis generally gets rid of all formatting codes without worrying overmuch.

This has happened to one of my co-workers at my site; it seems MS WORD had a different default printer, make sure the printer that your file is going to be sent through is the one you intend it to go to, and see if that works.\n\nFile>Print Setup

Press Ctrl+I to see if that works. If not save your work and restart MS Word.

Well once you format something you will not be able to unformat it. Those files are lost forever.

If you do that, it would be illegal.  I use OpenOffice, it's completely free and will open, edit and save as MS Word format.

Be sure to copy all files you need from your PC Desktop, MyDocuments, MyPictures,..etc. and the C: root directory because formating will destroy all files on drive C:\n\nI am not sure about the exact steps. I need to reinstall WindowsXP to write them to you.

You have three options:\n\n1) resize fonts, graphics, margins, et cetera.\n\n2) use larger paper.\n\n3) insert page breaks where you need to advance to another page (CTRL + ENTER), although I can't imagine why Word would not automatically go to the next page!

I think it's corrupted or something. You might need to re-install word using ur Microsoft Office CD.It always works for me! n well, if you don't have it.. ask a friend for it.

Try going to the Tools menu and choosing Options.  Under the View tab, in the Formatting Marks section, make sure that there are no boxes checked and click OK.

Save them in a file format that word understands. You can do this by selecting "save as" in the file tab.

Try this, save your Paper, restart the system, open the Doc. now try to spell check it. If that won't work, go to add remove programs, find MS works, click change/remove, in the window that opens, click repair. it will reinstall the program. good luck!

Check out the Word Help File. In the table of contents, look for...\n\nWorking with Long Documents\n  Using Master Documents\n\nIt really should be required reading. I'm always amazed by the remarkably useful features in Word that no one ever uses. Document Revision Tracking anyone? ;)

If you have Dreamweaver or Frontpage, make your text and tables in that program and save as html  (Dreamweaver preferred because it writes really clean code, but Frontpage might do the trick). After you are done, copy/paste from this to your word document from the "design" view (not code/html view). This should work as you could easily edit the word document without having to "clean" it like the html clean up. \n\nAlso, if you have Dreamweaver, it has a feature that automatically cleans word's html. In Dreamweaver\n\nCommands > Clean Up Word HTML \n\nThen choose the version of word you html'd from.\n\nHope that helps and best!
