    • in reply to: Creating a form and locking the fields (Word 2002) #774672

      I’m not sure exactly what you mean when you say that the fields move down. Do you mean that a line feed has been added? I have created lots of forms using tables and I frequently adjust the hight of the row so that the user can not add so much info that it changes the height of the row and changes the page break from where I want it to be. The default value is for the cell to be able to grow as long as more info is added to the cell. Select the row in the unprotected form and right click on table properties and select the height and then select if you want that height to at least that height or exactly that height.

    • in reply to: Word XP Merge Problem (XP ) #774666

      Word mail merge procedures changed greatly from Word 2000 to Word XP. Word 2003 uses the methodology of Word XP. Why not display the mail merge toolbar in Word XP and then choose merge to printer with the icon on the toolbar. You might also check the data in Excel XP and make sure the formatting is correct. If it is and the merge does not show the $, add it in the Word document to be merged.

      My experience is that there is no compelling reason (from the use you described) to upgrade from Office 2000. Changes have been made in Word since Word 2000, but none that scream out to you to upgrade.

    • in reply to: Order of files in the Open dialog (Word 2000) #773034

      In the file list that comes up when you either open or save a file, switch the view with an icon at the top of this dialog box to details. Click on the column header of the category that you want the list sorted by- such as name. If it is sorted Z-A, click on “Name” again and it will be sorted A-Z. After you do this if you change the view to List or another category, the list will still be sorted in the way that you wanted even though the categories are no longer listed.

      I hope this solves your problem.
