The convention for using quotes in multi-paragraph spans is to leave off the ending quote mark on all but the final paragraph (as in your “Open ended dialogue example above), so handling this...

Yes. In the footnote, use the Insert > Cross-reference dialog box and choose Footnote as the Reference type. Select the footnote you want to link to and the type of reference (typically, Footnote...

Is your page 4 set after a section break? If so, be sure to reconnect the header/footers in it to your previous section -- assuming of course that you want them to flow through.

Be sure to check...

Is your ToC on page 1 of section 1? And what section # is shown for the apparent second page? Your status bar can show the page # as used, the section #, and page X of Y; if it doesn't already, you...

Each section can potentially have header & footer definitions for a 1st page, odd page, and an even page. There are several different cases to consider: you can see the effect by creating a 3-page...

Since the OP only mentioned "a" table in his document, and given that many users may lack confidence or experience with macros & VBA, I thought I should point out that the F&R dialog can manage it...

You don't even need to use a macro to do this; a single Find and Replace can do it in one step:

In the Find what box: (-)([$€£¥0-9,.]{1,})
In the Replace with box: (\2)
Turn on "Use wildcards"

I get this all the time with my HP Laserjet. Just choose "Ignore" in the dialog offereing to fix the apparent margin problems.

You can enter Unicode sequences to get Cyrillic (and other) characters. Refer to this Penn State page for a list of characters and the associated 4-digit codes for Russian, Serbian and other...

The default templates will be in a folder on your main drive; probably somewthing like C:\Users\*username*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates. Open the Developer ribbon and click Document Template...

I agree. Grouped text would be easier to manage and use with an option like the one that displays field code content with a gray background (Word Options > Advanced > Show document content > Field...

Adjusting to interface changes is like driving a new car after 10 years. Most essential things operate much like what you are used to in your old vehicle, but the new stuff initially seems...

The field codes just need to be updated. You can do it by switching from print layout view to draft view and back.

Is there any way to detect if content is grouped? The problem I've had with the "Group" function is that it is an invisible attribute, with no apparent ways to find it or go to it. Even if you select...

It may not be where you started the find, but pressing Shift-F5 will take you back to the last edit you made. Or, if you have a fairly good idea of where you were, you could press F5 to get the Go To...

The above method will work, but may be more complicated than you need.

I would recommend applying a paragraph style to the found text:

Find what: - Highlight Loc.
Replace with: ^&
Format:...

This is a known limitation of Word's Find & Replace: it works when you use the dialog, but the recorded version of the same thing won't work. For a workaround and some sample code you could modify,...

You can also add some gutter width (in the Page Setup dialog) to effectively push the text area further out from the inside margin to make room for the binding.

Are you sure these are being flagged as spelling errors and not grammar alerts? Spell check displays with red squiggly underscrores; grammar with green.

If they are grammar -- green -- then you...

Pam's character style suggestion has other benefits too: you can change the style definition to make the tagged words more visible (for example, make them green) temporarily during the edit phases...

Note that after you create the template per Pam's instructions above, you will need to attach it to the new document. In Word 2003, use the Tools > Templates and Add-Ins dialog. Browse to select the...

Note that if you do need to make direct formatting changes to a ToC, you can choose to update just the page numbers rather than rebuild the TOC field code. Of course, you should be careful to leave...

Check the style definitions for the affected problem formats: for some obscure reason, MS decided to have "Automatically update" as a default on mny styles. What this means is that if you make a...

Note that the levels in a ToC can be collected from ANY style, so if you have more Heading 2s within tables than in the text, you might consider changing the textual H2s to a different style. As...

The line of code sets up a wildcard pattern to look for a new word consisting of 3 or more uppercase characters characters. The strListSep variable uses your international list separator (typically a...
