How can I draw a table inside of a table?

Subject: How can I draw a table inside of a table?

Hello,

I have a table I set up using the Table menu. Now, I want to devide one of its cells to 4 parts. Is that possible - how?

Thanks,

Avi.

[SupportX]

Subject: Uset the pencil tool..

Its right there in the table menu "Draw table", just divide you cell by drawing vertical and horizontal lines in it. very simple, really.

Good luck,

SupX

[S. Diego]

It's actually called "Draw Table" and it can be found under the "Table" menu
(Office 2003).

To do this, you place the cursor into the appropriate cell of your existing
table, and then click on 'Table'.. select 4 cells..

It depends on whether you really want to nest a table in the cell or just
split the cell into four parts. If the latter, right-click in the cell and
choose Split Cells. In the ensuing dialog, choose 2 columns and 2 rows.

You Can insert an AVI or WMV object in Word
through Insert=>Object=>From File.

You can double click them to play.
Usually the .AVI file will play inside the
document while the WMV will call up the app
you have set to play that file type in a separatate
Window.

Note that if you embed the whole thing in a document
you can have some pretty large .DOC files.

Hi,

I have a document in french, I wish to translate it to English - it doesn't have to be a profesional translation, but its a 200 page document, and it is due on my bosses table by Thursday...

anything Word can do for me (other than to help me write my resignation/suicide letter)?

Thanks,

Avi.

[Mike Hall (MS-MVP)]

Write your letter..

Online translators can be found online by typing "online translators"
surprisingly enough, but they are wildly inaccurate at times.. your boss
should have more about him than to leave an office junior with a job that
the junior can't handle..

There are times when the positive action is to say "NO"..

What am I doing wrong?

[Margaret Aldis]

You have either linked the picture to an external file, or possibly you have
literally embedded the picture as an editable object (e.g. Visio diagram)
and your recipient does not have the correct tool to open it.

Either way you need to unlink the fields containing the pictures, so the
actual picture is stored in the file. CTRL-6 or CTRL+SHIFT+F9 will do the
job.

It's wherever you saved it. If you didn't specify a different location (and
apparently you didn't), it's saved in Word's default folder, which is
probably the root of My Documents. For the path to this see the path for
"Word documents" on the File Locations tab of Tools | Options. But if Word
is set to start in this folder, then when you start Word and choose File |

My Normal style is set to TNR 12pt and there is no difference between my Normal or attached templates that I can find. Yet using ctrl-space I keep getting Arial 11pt!! The shortcut is set to ResetChar corrrectly. Where is this default character style coming from? Blank documents opened from normal dot behave correctly, however.
Thanks in advance

If you're getting Arial 11 in specific documents, then it would appear that
the default font for those documents (or specific styles used in them) has
been changed.

Subject: Newspaper Columns

Hi! I have a long thin list that I put into three columns The list is divided into sections. Each section has a heading. The second page begins with a new section. After about five lines, the list continues on the second column instead of continue down to the end of the page. It then continues on to the third column. When the section ends, the list continues from the first column again and behaves normally. It's almost as if the first five lines of the page are being treated as a separate page. Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can solve this? Thanks.

[Stefan Blom]

Word will balance columns if they are followed by a continuous section
break. Switch to Normal view (View>Normal) and see if a continous
section follows your "problem list". If this is the case, there are
some things you can do:

You can change the type of section following your "problem columns".
Place the cursor immediately *after* the break (don't select anything,
just leave the cursor blinking), and, on the File menu, click Page
Setup. On the Layout tab, pick a different setting for "Section
start", such as "New page". Click OK.

Alternatively, click Options on the Tools menu, and then click the
Compatibility tab. Check the "Don't balance columns for Continuous
section starts" option. Click OK.

The solution depends a bit on what you mean by "a new section." I suspect
you don't mean that there is actually a section break of any sort here, as
that would cause more of a break than you're seeing. My guess is that either
there is a column break (Ctrl+Shift+Enter) between the sections (which is
causing the new section to jump to the second column) or the "Keep with
next" formatting of the section heading, combined with text flow properties
of the following paragraphs, are causing them to clump together and move to
the next column as a block.

I have Word 2003. I have created a table of contents for a document. Some of the entries in the TOC retain the formatting from the document. Others do not. I do not see any difference between the headings in the document. Yet Word treats them differently. I am using a customized consistent format for all the headings. Can anyone help? Thanks.

The TOC will pick up any font formatting that is applied as direct
formatting (that is, formatting that is not the Default Paragraph Font for
the heading style).

For example, if you have All Caps included in the style definition, it will
not be picked up by the TOC. But if you apply All Caps formatting as direct
formatting, it will be. Where this can be deceptive is that if you have All
Caps formatting as part of the style definition, you may not realize that
the paragraph was actually typed with Caps Lock on. If you temporarily
remove the All Caps formatting, you can see the underlying capitalization.
Retype the paragraph in caps and lowercase, restore the default paragraph
formatting, and the TOC will sort itself out (when updated).

Hi,

Can anyone please assist with the following:

I want to make my document somewhat more interactive and embbed a Macromedia Flash movie in it. What I actually want to do is embbed and HTML tag like the following:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="680" height="52" id="MyInteractiveFlash" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" id="MyInteractiveFlash.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /><embed src="" id="MyInteractiveFlash.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="680" height="52" name="id="MyInteractiveFlash" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>

Like I would do in an HTML file.

Then I expect the Flash object to be visible in my document (not an Icon or a link button).

Is that possible? how?

Thanks,

Alisa.

Hi Alisa,

The 'technique' used to run the flash within Word is sort of an edgy
workaround (i.e. it's not a 'designed in' feature that works
through selecting a .SWF file if you use Insert=>Object=>From File.

Yes, you can insert it, and have it play but you may have problems with it
and it may only work for you in its original location. (Word
doesn't have a flash player of its own built in)

With your Word document opened and a safety copy of your document saved (in
case things go wrong), the following should work for Word 2000 through 2003.

1. From View=>Toolbars turn on the Control Toolbox choice
2. On the Control Toolbox select the 'More Tools' choice
3. Scroll down to the Shockwave Object choice.

4. You'll likely see only a box at this point with a large black 'X'
through it. Check to see that the 'Design mode' icon on the
Control box is highlighted.

5. Right click on the Shockwave object and choose properties.

6. In the 'movie' field paste or type the drive/path and name of the .SWF
file. For example
c:\Flash\goldfish.swf

7. While still in the properties change the 'embed movie' choice to 'true'

8. Close the properties toolbox. You'll still be looking at the 'X'd box
where the SWF file is.

9. Resize the item to the size you want, right click it and choose Format
Control
to set text wrapping, etc then exit back to the document.

10. Use File=>Save As and save to a new file name.

11. On the Control Toolbox toolbar click on the 'Exit Design Mode' icon
to turn it off and see if the flash file plays.

You may find that Word will crash when playing or saving the file after the
flash starts playing. You will also be limited in the
'wrap styles' you can use to format the object.

If you move or send the document on to someone else it may depend on what
the macro/addin security settings are in Tools=>Options for that person and
the method you're using to open the document that contains the flash object.

An 'object' that is embedded is actually embedding a chunk to the external
app to 'run' the item, rather than a graphic that is
'static' data in the file.

Thank you Bob,

I've went through the process and the object is embedded into the document, but the movie is not playing :-(.

Any further directions?

Thank you again,

Alisa.

Hi,

I opened a document and it appears gibberish. I know its an encoding problem. How can I change the encoding type for this document?

Thanks,

Alisa.

[garfield-n-odie [MVP]]

IF your diagnosis of the problem is correct, then in Word click
on Tools | Options | General tab | check the "Confirm conversion
at Open" box | OK. Then try to open the gibberish file, and you
should get a dialog box that allows you to select the encoding
you want.

[A.Alisa]

Thanks a lot, that worked.
