Thank you. It appears from a separate reply received by Greg Maxey himself
that in most cases it's best to stick with the "built-in" standard document
properties if you want to repeat data in a widely distributed template and
avoid any coding in the process.

Note: This message is a duplicate of the message I posted today on the
word-pc list.
I have a question regarding auto-updated content in Word 2007 templates.
Am I restricted to using the standard document properties if I want (1) an
editable value and (2) automatic population of the edited value throughout
the document?
For example, if I want the users of my template to fill in the project
name on the title page and then automatically populate the document
headers with the user's edited project name, do I have to use "Subject" or
some other standard document property?
In the Word 2007 template I'm developing, I've tried content controls and
custom document properties (fields), which do not fulfill the above
criteria, at least not the way I'm creating them in my .dotx file...I've
tried developer mode on and off.
Thanks,
Pamela Denchfield

The office assistant was an optional feature. If you didn't want it you
didn't have to use it. I agree they took away the one fun thing on my work
computer.

For Office 2003 they created an opt-in Customer Experience Improvement

If you frequently format tables in a certain manner, you may want to create
an AutoText based on a table with the desired table formatting and paragraph

I think you misunderstood whatever you read. Think about it:
A new version of Office is released every two to three years on average.
If you were correct about being able to use the Office 2007 free trial
software for six months, and then reinstall it and use it for six more
months, and again for six more months, and 22 more times thereafter,
that adds up to approximately 4.1 years of free trial period. Why would
any business allow you to use their product for soooooo long without
having to buy it, when the product would be superceded by one or more
newer versions before the end of the trial period?

When the program ran and then disappeared, it should have installed
the viewer -- probably in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office 11
as the file WordViewer.exe. If you click the Start menu and then click
All Programs, you should see it listed as "Microsoft Office Word
Viewer 2003".
If it isn't there, you may have had a problem between the web site's
download manager and the rights assigned to your Vista login. You can
try downloading instead from the file I've posted at
http://jay-freedman.info/wdviewer.exe which I'll leave there for 24
hours. Run that file to install the viewer.
By the way, I've actually installed it on Vista and confirmed that it
does work.

This is one of the most frequent of the Frequently Asked Questions.
Any document, electronic or paper, that you allow others to have can be
altered. Depending on how it's created, it may take more or less effort to
do so, and the alteration may or may not be easily detectable.
There is no way to prevent a Word document in its electronic form from being
altered. You can apply a digital signature to the document, and Word will
automatically remove the signature if the file is changed by even one byte.
Note that this does _not_ prevent changes, it only makes it possible to say
that a file is not the same as the original. A printout of an altered
document will look perfect, if the alteration is done with care.
If you use the full version of Adobe Acrobat to make a PDF file from your
document, you can make it more difficult -- but not impossible -- for
someone to make an altered copy. Most of the cheap or free PDF creation
programs don't offer the kind of change control that Acrobat does.
If the document is something of considerable legal or financial value, be
aware that anything that is (or can be) printed on paper can then be scanned
and altered in a way that's almost undetectable, unless you want to pay for
a forensic examination of the paper and ink.

|
It doesn't sound as though you really used section breaks in your
document. Everything that you don't want to change should be in a
section, which can include the forms. Anything that you want the sales
folks to be able to change should be in another section.
Title of Document
Form fields
Standard Contract text
---Section Break (End of Section One )----
Free-form area that sales people can freely change
In the above scenario, I would have Section One locked down for Fill-In
Forms, which will allow the sales folks to type in the form fields ONLY.
Section Two would be unprotected. There are some things that they would
not be allowed to do, but for the most part they can freely edit.
Hope that helps.

When you adjust the tab stops be sure you have the entire row selected.
For instance, if you have all of your First TOC entry selected and
change the tab stop, if you did it correctly, all other TOC entries
which are the same level would also adjust to align with the one you
just adjusted. Be sure you have the entire row selected before making
paragraph formatting changes. Therefore, you should only have to perform
the step once, and then it should be remembered when you update your
TOC.

| Quote: | I tried dragging the tab stops and then yes, I can get them to line up
properly. Then when I update the field, the tabs go back to where they used
to be. I currently have the tab stops set so that the Header2 lines are
indented from the left and the right, and it looks okay, but not great. It
looks like I bandaided it together, actually. Like I said earlier, it just
should not be this hard to figure out. I also noticed that the "automatic
TOC" entries on the pull-down TOC menu are configured so that H2 and H2 both
go to the right margin, while H1 stays indented from the right. It looks
like MS has decided how a TOC should look and wants me to go through personal
"heck" to get it the way I want it. Both TOC levels are set to right justify
with dot leaders. Changing the leaders doesn't change anything. Clearing
the tab stops doesn't change anything. Putting in an extra tab stop causes
all tab stops to stop working and the TOC then has hardly any spacing between
the header name and the page number. Yep, I am frustrated. This is a
template document that is going to be distributed to others to execute, so I
have to have it pretty darn bullet proof or all of our efforts will be lost.
How can this be so difficult? Thanks to anyone and everyone who can provide
some insight.

delete the directory, the testdoc.htm is also deleted. |
