Can't Highlight Text In IE And Word / Drag (copy) Cell In Excel
Jun 19, 2010
For unknown reason, I suddenly encountered problem with highlighting text on Internet Explorer (8) and words document (office 2003). I also have problem with dragging a cell (for copying a formula) to other cells in excel. I tried to play around with my keyboard (pause/break and scroll lock key), sometimes it worked for once, but I it won't work the next time I tried.
FYI, I am using windows 7 Ultimate 32bit and a razer keyboard (using windows default driver). I probably can try to install the driver from razor, however, i thought there is probably a simple fix for the issue i.e. a certain key from the keyboard got activated by accident (my little daughter sometimes punched the keyboard for fun).
I am typing away whether it be an email forum reply or in note book and not noticed I've had caps on, I've done this a few times. Is there an easy way to highlight text and swap between upper and lower case?
Ok this is wierd I have a client using Office 2007 pro and some of her docs that she recently updated and the problem is when she prints the docs text that she deleted is printing over the top of new text she inserted into the doc.
Now when you have said doc open in WORD the deleted text is not there in any view and does NOT show in "print preview".
I opened said doc with WORDPAD and the deleted text shows up at the bottom so its still in the word doc somewhere imbedded so it prints over the top of the actual text in the doc.
I Have lost the ability to drag highlighted text to the subject box when I compose or forward an email using Gmail and other mails with Firefox. Believe it may have stopped working with Firefox 14.1 update, I have tried Firefox safe mode and cache cleaned.
Quite spontaneously and for no apparent reason, I can no longer copy/paste a simple "add contents of 2 cells" to empty cells (e.g. e3+d4, to the next cells down the column, etc.). No matter what I do it will only copy the actual contents i.e. the result of the previous calculation. What I have tried:-
1. Deleting all contents and formats from the range of cells and starting over; 2. Using the drop-down menu of the paste button to select the "paste-special / formula" option (which keeps jumping back to the first default option at the top of the list); 3. Running the Office diagnostics built-in software off the microsoft top-left button to detect faults and anomalies - Nothing works and I am at a loss.......most peculiar...........
I'm not sure if this is the right section but anyway, I'm wondering if its possible to turn drag/drop into cut.For example: when I have to folders open next to each other, and I select a bunch of files from the left folder, and I drag / drop them to the right folder, it copies the files.
I have been most the day trying to solve these issues and nothing has worked. Basically I moved house couple of weeks ago and just go round to plugging my computer in and these are the issues I am having, whether they are all related I wouldn't know...
1.I can't copy and paste files , whether it's by mouse or keyboard. It seems to work on text by not files.When I try to copy and paste files it makes the noise it doe's like if you were to press an incorrect key .
2.I can't move files from one fold to another or on to my desktop.
3.I can't seem to view any pictures in windows photo viewer it just says loading all the time.
4.I went on to account settings to see if it was to do with administrative properties but I am classed as the admin anyway and even when I click on create a new user or manage user settings (anything with the admin symbol near the option) it just doe's nothing.I Have rebooted,system restored and lots of other things that people have suggested by nothing works , even on safe mode it doe's the same and on hidden admin that i unlocked. I really am stuck. I have just done a sfc /scannow and it says it found corrupted files but couldn't fix them.

For some time now, if I try to follow a hyperlink in Excel or Word (2007), I get a message that says that it is forbidden on my computer and that I should contact the Syatem Administrator. I have no system administrator, as this is a home computer.A Google search reveals that this is not a rare problem, and usually caused by uninstallng Google Chorome. I neer installed Google Chrome!Several suggestions included setting IE as the default browser.
I have installed on my computer Office 2007.When i opend a Word or Excel document and than try to close it i get the following error messages: "Microsoft office Word has stoped working"A Problem coused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notofy you if a solution is available.In some cases i can not even close my word ofr excel document and only can do so by using the Task Manager!

Basically, the title sums it all up. Everytime I load the windows 7 professional, the 3 programs loads itself up too. Both Word and Excel starts with an empty page. IE9 will try to connect to the internet. And I can't seem to disable them from autostart. I have looked in the Startup folder. It's empty. I've tried msconfig. I don't see anything related to IE9, or MSOffice in there.
I haven't been able to find out what's interfering with these programs; anything I cut, copy, or want to paste goes through a lengthy delay before the function completes. I did do a restore to a prior restore point. There is a program I don't remember installing; it is called B Updater Service, dated 4/5/12 384KB.
I have recently reinstalled (via recovery) my 64-bit Win 7 Home premium . Every thing else is fine, except for office 2007. The program was installed successfully but office files didn't show their respective icons. For the first time for every office file (e.g Word or Excel document) I have to chose the program to run the file. Now though on clicking any office file they opened in the respective office program but still their icons are like office is not installed.
Had to re-format HD, and seems to be working now.But for how much longer, who knows.On the old setup, I had MS WORD and Excel.Many existing files of both.I only have, if I remember right, 2 or 3 downloads allowable/available from the Student Edition of them that I purchased a while ago.So, I don't want to use up what is left on my present PC, as I have real doubts about it lasting much longer.I heard about Open Office, and that it is free, and "completely" compatible with the MS equivalents. True? Are there "better" free ones that would work very well with my existing WORD and Excel stuff?
Just started using a new workstation with Office 2010 installed by OEM. Everything worked fine for a few days, and then every time i attempt to open a Word file or Excel file i get the MS Office dialog box that states "please wait while windows configures Microsoft Office 2010". The dialog box stays visible for 30-45 seconds and then the program opens and works fine.
Ran a repair, four times, didn't fix it.
All of my research leads me to a solution of uninstalling and re-installing. I'm not buying that if everything worked fine for several days, that a bad install will make the program stop functioning properly.
I also noticed, while visiting help within outlook, that the product was still a trial version and not currently activated. I have entered the activation code numerous times with no luck.
When I want to copy a text from a web page into Word , it will not copy the FULL page. From left to righ,t it will cut off about 10-15% of the document on the right side of the page.. I tried moving the arrows on the top of the page and it doesn't seem to help.
For some reason, auto text does not work in one document that I have with a letterhead. Sometimes it does and other times not. The auto text options are all there but they do not work if I type the first three or four letters. They do work,however, if I open a blank document, but not in this particularly letterhead.I know when I first starting using the new computer, it asked me about saving the normal doc on this particular document and I don't remember if I did or did not.After that I believe is when it was no longer Only with this particular document with letterhead. I tried deleting the normal doc and copying from another computer, but still the same problem.
Suddenly, whenever I copy anything in Word 07, the copied text is bracketed with square brackets. They are gray color, and they are not reflected in the clipboard contents, so I believe they are non-printing characters.I have never had this happen before, and can't figure out what is going on.This occurs when using the mouse or CTRL-c to copy. It shows in Print, outline, and Web views.
In word 2010, I have a table of contents page and I justified the text to give it a clean look so that chapter headings are in line as well as the page numbers. When I print the page my printer does not print the justified text. Is this caused by my printer or is it in word? and how can i fix it?
I am trying to create a template with specific styling to be used by our group. Any document created with this template should be saved to a shared network folder. I'd like to know if this is possible...When I right click on my template and choose NEW, the resulting document should use...- the default text font face, size and colour that I specified.- the default paragraph spacing and indentation rules that I specified.
is there any simple text editing software which I can do bolding, underlining and all and when I copy the text over to my Wordpress blog, the bolding and all that will remain? I got tired of re-underlining stuff.
However I have installed MS Office 2007, and now I have options to create new PowerPoint, Word and Excell documents. How would I go about removing and restoring these?
I am trying to copy and paste a html to word 2007. My problem is part of the document is white letters on black back ground. I know how to change all the back ground. But only 3 paragraphs have a black back ground , the rest is white.
I've been having this problem for a while and can't find an exact match for my problem doing a Google search. I'm assuming it's a Windows 7 problem, but I'm not sure.I copy some text from Word 2010 and paste it into my Yahoo email, but some older text is pasted and not what I just copied. I don't know what is causing this.
