Software / Word 2007 user information fields

« on: June 05, 2008, 01:00:13 PM »

The User Information Fields menu in Word have UserName, UserAddress and UserInitials.  Can you create a new user information field to add to the menu?  I would like to add User email address if possible.

Software / MS Word Forms and footnotes

« on: April 01, 2008, 12:11:26 PM »

Hello Everyone!

I recently created a simple Word 2003 memo form and saved it as a template for others to use in my office. The top section of the form is protected so that the formatting cannot be changed, but the second section is not protected so that the user can type whatever they want and even format however they want.  To my surprise, one of the users called me up and told me that he was trying to insert a footnote in the memo and the footnote option was grayed out, so I tested it myself and sure enough, I couldn't insert a footnote in the form.  Am I missing something here?  http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':huh:\' /> Why would such a simple option not work in a form?  Can someone tell me if there is another way to create a form in which you CAN insert a footnote, otherwise, I am going to have to create a template with a dynamic dialog box, which requires a lot of coding, for such a simple form.  Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello.  I'm a newbie in search of help.  I have created an Excel form that has a column that shows the date format as April 25, 2007.  Can the date format in Excel 2000 be customized to read Wednesday, April 25, 2007 and if so how?
