\* MERGEFORMAT and \* Charformat
The following format switches are giving me inconsistent results in MS Word 2003: \* MERGEFORMAT and \* Charformat. I use two character styles, 2400 and 3000, based on product model numbers to hide and show text. For example, if I print the 2400 manual, I format the 3000 character style as hidden text. The problem is that if I apply a character style to a cross-reference (ref field), th...

"set language" in Word 2007?
I'm using Word 2007 on Windows XP. One of the things that I like to do in a doc before I finish it is to select all, set the language to U.S. English, and re-run the spell check. I can't figure out how to set the language for all styles in my 2007 doc. I'm in Review > Spelling, but I can't see anything relevant there for languages. (I see that "English" is listed in the "Research" ...

How to prevent Word Or Outlook From Replaceing Apostrophes
In Office 2007, I can't figure out how to stop word from replacing a normal apostrophe into a smart apostrophe or whatever the office programmers are calling it nowadays.

I've tried setting the auto correct options to replace ASCII 0039 ' with ASCII 0039 ' and it doesn't work....

MERGEFORMAT in TOC fields does not stick
When I have a TOC field with the \* MERGEFORMAT switch and then update the field (F9), any formats I have applied disappear. This is a problem because my TOC fields inherit condensed character spacing from the captions in the body of the document. (I have condensed the spacing in some captions so that they fit.) This makes for a TOC with uneven spacing (the lines that refer to captions ...

Table outlines disappear - help !
Hi, I'm translating a rather large document, but the source document which is mostly a series of tables when copied/pasted must have something wrong with it as the table itself disappears leaving the text all over the place. It's upsetting because if I can't preserve the formatting the work will take ten times as long. Any ideas how I can 'fix' the table so that it doesn't disappear ? ...

Table of Dang Contents
I'm trying to set up a TOC. Have all the Heading styles correct. I do not want chapter numbers to show up in the TOC, i.e., (1-Chapter One) I don't want the numerical number there.

That works fine so that I don't get 1 - Chapter One. But I c...

I have a template form which was developed in Word 2003, which utilizes form checkboxes, dropdown, text and autotext. I understand that autotext has been replaced with the Quick Parts Building Blocks. The first problem I have is that the form needs to be protected in order for the checkboxes to work. However, when I do that, the Quick Parts button (if I go the Content Control route)/B...
