If you need to edit the text in the table, I'd recommend pasting special as an Excel worksheet object, not as a picture. It'll show as a metafile anyway, but when you need to edit you can edit in in Excel. -- ----------------------------------------- This posting is provided "as is" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

- 1. Word disappears automatically when started
Hi, This is more an annoyance than a serious problem, but if anyone can help, I'd appreciate it. I have a PC running Windows 2000 and Office 2000. When I double-click on a shortcut to a Word document (say, in My Documents) Word loads up the document fine, and then the Word application tucks itself away behind the folder where the shortcut is. Excel also does this, but non-Office applications don't, so I'm assuming this is an Office problem rather than a Windows problem. But if I start Word (or Excel) and File | Open, this doesn't happen. That's not the point, though, as I'd rather use the shortcuts. The location of the shortcut appears to be irrelevant also. Many thanks, Keith - 2. Using form text fields included in an IF Statement with autotext
Hello, I am having a lot of problems with a template I am creating. I have a dropdown box "dropdown1" and I have an If field which pulls in an autotext entry. This autotext entry also has form fields that I want to fill out after I have selected a choice from the dropdown. Is this possible? It does not seem to be working for me. The autotext entry comes in fine but it does not let me fill in the formfields I have inserted. It dosen't even see them there. If I bring in the autotext entry in manualy by typing it there is no problem. I can see the form fields and they work. But not using an IF field. This is what I have. Dropdown box = "dropdown1" Autotext entries = Option1, and Option2 both contain form fields within. {If {REF "dropdown1"} = "Option1" {AUTOTEXT "Option1"}}{IF {REF "dropdown1"} = "Option2" {AUTOTEXT "Option2"}} Any help appreciated. Steve - 3. How do I get Word to open files with the same menu bars each time.
It seem like every time I open a Word document the menu bars come up different. I think there is a difference whether I open from Outlook or just the file. I also have the little menu bar for Acrobat pop up ina nearly blank menu bar. I drag it up to a less imposing location, but it pops up later in the same place. - 4. I do not want the "reviewing" toolbar to pop up everytime I open .
- 5. How to change margin settings
I need to change margin settings from imperial to metric in Word 2003. My Windows XP settings are set to metric but Word is still in imperial.

Hi Brooks: The EMF option you were working with is the best way to do this. You can disable the Drawing Canvas option in Tools>Options>... I would turn it back on again as soon as you have finished editing your picture, since the drawing canvas can be very useful if you are also adding drawing objects to the document.

1.Editing a Table Pasted from Excel into Word as a Picture (Enhanced Metafile)
Hi: I am copying a section of an Excel Spreadsheet, and then pasting into word using Paste Special -> Picture (Enhanced Metafile) When I right click on the object in word, one of the menu choices is "Edit Picture" This will allow me to change text in the picture, which seems to be included through the use of text boxes. I make a minor change that is required, but then I cannot seem to revert the image or picture back to its previous form, which seems to be as a normal picture file that has been inserted. The only way I can figure out how to do this is by using the undo command, but I loose my text chance. If the picture stays in the new, editable format, whenever I click into it, all of the text is becomes highlighted, which really slows down my ability to continue work on the rest of the document. The new format seems to be seen by word as a Drawing Canvas. Does anyone know how I can make a text change, and then get Word to see the image as an inserted picture file again as opposed to this drawing canvas? Thanks, Brooks
2.Pasting Excel Graphs (charts/enhanced metafile pictures) into Word
I am looking for a similar solution posted by Donahue, 8/20/04, 7:07 am. I have pasted excel charts and enhanced metafile pictures in a word document, sent this to a colleague who has Word 2001 for the Mac, and she is unable to view these files. She sees a big (red?) X. Size/memory is not an issue here. Any help here?

4.Excel 2007 line-chart pasted as an enhanced metafile - editing
To tailor all our charts we past/special/metafile line charts into Powerpoint, then ungroup twice to be able to move/chop/change elements of the chart. When I ungroup the second time the line (representing data) actually breaks into a huge number of invidual lines (according to the underlying source data), as opposed to one single line. As a result, things are much more tedious/complicated. Any way to ungroup a chart in Powerpoint and have the line stay as a line, and not a ton of individual lines? -- Ben
