Add-in Error: We could't connect to the '{0}' catalog server for this add in
For the past month every time I try to use an Add-In in word I get the following error "we couldn't connect to the '{0}' catalog server for this add in." I have tried from multiple computers, Safari, Chrome, different accounts, etc. and nothing is working. It is a personal account and I use word online. It happens for multiple add-ins and I have reached out to the companies directly and they said it was a Microsoft issue.
Table Design -How to see which table styles adopted
I have only recently discovered table design / table styles in word and is trying to adopt using it just like Styles in my work. But I realize that I am facing a problem. For word style, i can usually see which style is adopted by clicking in the existing paragraph and check with style is highlighted in the style gallery. This does not seem to work for table styles. I previously set a custom table style and then apply it to an existing table in the document. When I click on the table, I do not see "custom" being highlighted in the table styles gallery. Is there also no way to name table styles like word styles? It gets really confusing to search only by visual shape/colors in the gallery. I really want to remove some of the table styles from the gallery to avoid users from trying to use them.3 column layout and footnote to appear in the same column bottom of page
Hi, I have a 3 column layout of text. In the third column, I need to insert a footnote. I need the footnote to appear at the bottom of the page but it must be under the third column at the bottom of the page. see below screenshot. I tried several ways to setting the footnote and it still appear on the left hand side (1st column) bottom of the page.a table but not really a table
I have this word document that has an addin that linked to financial system in terms of extracting values. so usually we will create an excel report with excel table in the financial system where it will populate the figures in the excel table and then in the word document, we just use the addin to extract the entire table into the document - we called it a table object. It is not an embedded excel table instead it behaves just like inserting a word table in the document. The benefit of this is user just need to refresh or update the extraction parameters to update the figures in this table object. so now, we need have a weird request where it is not possible to do this excel table but we can extract exact amount from the system instead - they called it an amount object. this amount object can also be refresh and updated like table object. BUT we cannot insert an amount object as "nested" in a table drawn in word document. In usual case, amount object is inserted in text content....like CEO words about performance of business in an annual report. I need to be create a "table like" visual in word document so that I can insert several amount objects. The final visual of these will look as if I use a table. Like below: As long as it is inserted as a table, I can insert amount object in the respective "cells". Does anyone have a creative way to do this?Page color and do not block header
I know that in order to set a specific page with page color in word, I need to use a workaround where I draw a rectangle filled with color and then stretch to fill the entire page and set it to hide behind text. I did that but this page also has a header where it shows the name of company and then next row is just a long black rectangle. The black rectangle was set to "tight". but now I have a problem because "page color" rectangle does not block content in the page but it block the header (both text and black rectangle). I don't understand why it is blocking both the text and shape in the header. How can I fix this?Page cplor Blocking Header
Hi, I have a specific page in the document that needs to have a page color. I know the workaround for this is to create a shape filled with the color to cover the entire page but set it to hide behind text. I managed to do that. But the document has a header that look like below: first row of text: ABC Pte Ltd second row: black rectangle shape to look like separator (it is set to wrap as "tight") When the page shape was stretched the entire page, it did not block the page content but it block the header (both text and rectangle). How do I fix this so that the page color shape does not block the header?
Error del complemento. No pudimos conectarnos con el servidor de catalogo "{0}" para este documento
Estoy usando Word Online (Office 365) y al abrir complementos como Mendeley Cite aparece el error: “Error del complemento. No pudimos conectarnos con el servidor de catálogo {0} para este documento.” En general, este error aparece en todos los complementos existentes, como si en mi cuenta los mismos no estuvieran habilitados. Ya probé: Cambiar de navegador (Edge, Firefox, Google). Limpiar datos de navegación. Reiniciar sesión y el computador. Permitir cookies y permitir permisos de los navegadores Hasta ahora no hay forma de que los complementos funcionen en Word Online. ¿Alguien sabe cómo resolverlo? El flujo concreto es: Entro a un documento en word online -> oprimo el botón de complementos -> se abre la lista de complementos -> elijo cualquier complemento y me aparece el error del titulo de esta discusión. Hace una semana si me funcionó en edge, ahora no hay formas.
