Index tab leaders don't reflect tab leaders in the Index Style
Contex: 700 page word document with multiple indexes - about 1500 index items in each of three indexes Issue: Indexes appear with dotted tab leaders in front of page number. Index 1 style (and the other levels as well) have a tabs without dotted leaders. Question: How to get rid of the dotted tab leaders if they don't follow the relevant index style when the index is updated. Note that I have tried clearing the index style changing the index style creating a clean document with good styles and copying the index definition from that document creating a clean document template with good styles and adding that (and activating it) to the document And numerous other methods that I have not documented. Any thoughts on how to address this (other than applying the style every time I update)?
page numbering a document in word
Hello I am trying to automate page numbers in my document. I have removed all section breaks— but one. I cannot figure out the sequence of commands to “link to previous”— when I do it, it does not work. I must be clicking the wrong things because it won’t paginate. It is a long document so I really need the pages numbered. Any help in solving this would be much appreciated.Word: table splitting across pages
I have a table in word, I want all the rows of the table to remain in the same page when new lines are added above it. i.e. if of four rows, the last table won't fit in the page, the whole table should move to the next page. I have followed the following steps: Table properties>row> uncheck 'Allow rows to break across pages' Select all rows of table and then Paragraph>line and Page breaks> check 'Keep with next' For some reason the table still splits across pages Note: The rows on the table have different heights
How do I make the cursor visible while typing in word
Hi there, I am using office 365, word version 2310. I just noticed when I begin typing, even one letter, my cursor disappears immediately, and I can only get it back by moving my mouse or press Ctrl. Previously, I think I could see my cursor while typing. Would it be possible to make my crusor visible while typing? I've tried the operations below: 1. turning on/off the 'smart cursoring'. 2. activate/unactivate 'hide pointer while typing' in 'pointer options'. 3. uninstall and reinstall office 365, repair/reset office 365. 4. turning off the HDR settings. 5. changing the display scale in 'display settings'. 6. lauching word in a safe mode. 7. changing the regional settings. None of them works. The funny thing is, when I am typing in Chinese characters, my cursor does not disappear at all, but even if I type one single English letter, the cursor disappears immediately. Additionally, I found the same behaviour when typing in notepad of windows. I know it might be a FEATURE to hide my cursor while typing, but is there any possible solution that I can make my cursor visible while typing? I just want to see my cursor. \ ThanksMarkup Panel appearing with every word document. Comments column now in some weird thing.
Good day, I am so confused I do not even know how to explain all the issues. 1) Opened a word document today that I closed yesterday. Opens up with some thing called a Markup Panel. Go to review and select no markup. Fine for now, but then appears every time I reopen the document, and all other documents. 2) Up until today, my comments were nicely formatted in a column on the right side of the screen. Now they are in some thing called a "reviewing panel" which is terribly formatted and located in the wrong place until I drag to to the right side. Is this something I have caused or some Word Update (God, I hope it is not the latter.) 3) Also, the little indicators next to the lines where the comments are located are no longer present, so the only way I know there is a comment on that line is by clicking on the comment in the stupid "reviewing panel" How do I get back to what I had yesterday? Thanks so much for your help. Dave
How to add 3 months to existing date mergefield in Word
I'm looking for a way to add 3 months on from an existing mergefield date («Calculation Date») in Word. Say the starting date is 16 September 2025 we'd want the new value to be shown as 16 December 2025. I cannot do this calculation in Excel as the mergefield data comes from a database and I have not used Macros etc before. Thanks
