MS Word 2003 weirdness

I have Microsoft Word 2003. Is it possible to upgrade it online to Word 2003? A company I worked for for a short time did it. If it's possible, can someone give me the link? I looked on Microsoft.com but don't see it. ...

I will be changing from Word 2000 to Word 2003 and have a few questions. I am not that great at figuring tech stuff out so hopefully someone will be able to help me. Will changing from 2000 to 2003 affect anything on my computer at all, i.e., will all my other software work okay. I rely on my PC Shorthand expander and my electronic Stedman's books, plus how about my Stedman's medical spellchecker, will they all work the same or do I need to do anything to make sure th ...

I'm using both Word 2003 and WP12 and am looking to transfer/copy my auto correct/quick words from Word into WP - any suggestions? ...

Have a new computer with windows 7. Haven't set it up yet. Can I install word 2003 and also whatever the latest word is (2007?). Should one be installed before the other? My computer tech retired and haven't found a new one yet. Thanks for any info. ...

My Word has begun to take forever to open and also to save reports. I am thinking perhaps the program has been corrputed and think perhaps I need to over-load the program again. Will this delete my spell-check dictionary and autocorrect entries? I have been trying to figure out how to back them up just in case, but have been unlucky in this regard. The Microsoft site gives instructions to back up autocorrect, but the files in program files are not there as they state th ...

Hello, I have been fortunate enough to be offered a new MT position with an MTSO that needs me to have MS Word 2003 available. I have the trials of Word 07 and Word 10 right now, but neither of these are compatible with this new MTSO's software. It needs to be Word 2003. I'm having a hard time finding Word 03 anywhere on the web. But I am sure it is legitimately accessible somewhere, at least for a 30- or 60-day trial. Could anyone recommend a way I could acqu ...

Does anyone know if there is a fix for Word 2003 to correct the compatibility issue with Smartype? If I highlight a word and then type without deleting the text, Word will lock up. Sometimes if I type over highlighted text without pressing delete, I get three duplicate letters in a row, and then the cursor scrolls to the bottom of the screen and Word crashes. It is a real pain to have to hit delete all the time, and if anyone knows of a way to fix this, I'd appr ...

(I'm ready to throw both computers out the door.) Anyone ever have any trouble with Word not responding? I tried to caplitalize the word INC. and when I put the period at the end of Inc., it stops responding, I have to end the program and get back in. Sometimes it saves the document, sometimes it doesn't. I also wanted to make a change in a short in AutoCorrect and noted that some of the replacement words have an '*' after them. If I click on any of those words, Word will n ...

Are most MT employers using Using Word 2007 or Word 2003? Word 2010 is out in June. Would the MT industry upgrade quickly to Word 2010 or does it usually take a few years? ...

Help me if you can! Thanks in advance. ...

The screentip that comes up when typing the first letters of an AutoText entry has stopped working - and since there is no screentip, the option to insert an AutoText entry into the document by hitting "Enter" is not available either. I can go into AutoText and "Insert" it that way, and hitting F3 inserts the entry into the document from the screen, and all my entries are in there - it is just screentip and Enter that "broke." This happened from one document to the next. I ...

I hope someone can help me. I use Word 2003 and have most of my shortcuts in Autotext. All of a sudden, my autotext stopped working. I can't seem to access any of my shortcuts. Any input would really be appreciated. Thanks !! ...

I've been away from MT a couple of years. I think I had created a quick keystroke to delete the last word, but this may have been in a more current version of Word. Does anyone know how to do this in Word 2003? Thanks for any tips! ...

I just got a new computer and am trying to find a downloadable version of Microsoft Word (ideally 2003, which is what is on my old computer) or even 2008 or 2010. I had found a downloadable version of this for $39.99 a couple of months ago, but I didn't bookmark it and now can't find it. When I go to the Microsoft website, the only downloadable version I can find is apparently their new Office 365. TIA to anyone who can help :-) ...

Does anyone know where I can buy my own copy of Word 2003 to 2007 for a reasonable price?? ...

I'm attempting to create a generic overall macro for my VR editing that includes multiple corrections, two of which are g and L to grams and liters (account preference for single-letter measurement designations, and hey, more characters for me). However, when I try to do this via Find and Replace function in Word, even when supposedly adding a space before and after the g and L, I end up with those characters being replaced in any word that begins with either of them (i.e., 1 g gentam ...

Has anyone had this problem and found a solution? I work in Meditech with Word 2003. Whenever I create autocorrect entries, they will work for that session, but the next time I log on, they've all disappeared. This is very frustrating. Really hoping to find a solution! Thanks. ...

Every so often when I press the delete key, it zooms through the report and deletes every character past where the cursor was located. Once everything is gone, the hour glass keeps flashing, the cursor no longer works, and I have to shut down the program and lose all of the material deleted. I have lost entire reports when going back to the beginning and trying to edit something. Any ideas on how I can stop this from happening? ...

and I can't figure it out for the life of me . I watched a video of how to make short-cuts, like opening up certain things by just a few keystrokes, but I want to expand words, like tp for the patient. How do I enter these into Word 2003? Links? help please! I can't afford other productivity software right now. thanks!!!!!!! ...

When I have more than one window up in Microsoft Word, I will go to close one window, and Word will make me save all the windows. Is there a way to change this so that I can close one window without having to do anything to the others? Word 2000 didn't have this issue. ...

Trying to figure out the proper setting. When I copy a reference and want to paste it into Editscript (MS Word 2003) it pastes the original format, changing the font, size, etc. I would like to paste it so it matches my document. Do you know the setting and where it is located? Thanks so much ...

I want to set my documents where they automatically number and tab over. I have to do this every time I make a list manually. Is there a way for it stay that way and I don't have to go in manually and set it every time? I have went into to tools>auto correct options and set it to automatically number, but it still will not do it. I am so frustrated! ...

I have searched all over and can't find it. I don't want the whole office package, just MS Word. Thanks for your help! ...

How do I move Word 2003 normal.dot (AutoText) and MSO1033.acl (AutoCorrect) to different computer, which now has newly loaded Word 2003 and EditScript8? I have got the files moved to the desktop of the new computer. Can normal.dot be called something else? I found an MSO.acl file, but not sure if this is the one I replace. Any tips? This website is truy wonderful. Thanks to JOb Seeker's Board, I got a 2nd job! ...

I am trying to find a good spellchecker to download for Word 2003. I had previously been working out of WP5.1 and then Pscribe, so there was no need for me to purchase one. TOO many out there, would like opinions from MTs who actually use them, not the manufacturer saying "its the best one available" and end up paying for something that is garbage. Starting a new position on Monday where I will be typing in Word 2003. Any suggestions greatly appreciat ...
