== Transferring Macros between computers ==

Macros are essentially pre built scripts that, when run, can format a document according to the users wishes.

In Windows 7 this process is pretty simple.

First navigate to C:\Users\owner\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft note that owner will actually be the user name of whoever owns the computer.

If you cannot see the AppData folder, then in the file explorer click Organize -> Folder and search options. From there go to the view tab and then select Show hidden files, folders, drives.

===Word===

Once in the Microsoft folder go to Templates and copy the Normal.dotm file to the same location on the destination computer. (C:\Users\owner\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates)

===Excel===

Once in the Microsoft folder go to Excel and then XLSTART from here copy the personal folder to the same location on the destination computer. (C:\Users\owner\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART)

To make the destination computer recognize the new macros just close all office applications and then re open them.

Adding a Faculty Department Printer

2012-01-16T16:58:08Z

Jrossow:

This page explains how to properly add a printer on a faculty/staff members machine on either a Macintosh or Windows platform.

==Checking the Printers==
#Before you install anything, double check to make sure the desired printer isn't already installed. It's possible that the printer isn't set to be the default printer, and the user has no idea.

====Checking a Windows Machine====
For a Windows machine, go to the Start Menu (or spherical Windows icon in the lower left hand corner of the screen), then click "Devices and Printers." This will open a new menu displaying all of the installed devices and printers. If their desired printer is installed and is not the default, right click the printer icon and select the "Set as Default Printer" option. If the printer is not installed, refer to [[#Installing a Printer (Windows)| Installing a Printer (Windows]].

====Checking a Macintosh Machine====
For a Macintosh, click on the apple icon located in the upper left hand corner of the screen. A drop down menu will appear with the option "System Preferences." Click on that, and a new window will open. Under the "Hardware" menu, there is an icon called "Print and Fax." All of the installed printers will be located under that icon. If the desired printer is installed but not set to default, right click it, and select "Set as Default Printer." If the printer is not installed, refer to [[#Installing a Printer (Macintosh)| Installing a Printer (Macintosh)]]

==Installing a Printer (Windows-Unmanaged)==
#Go to the start menu as before, and open the same "Devices and Printers" window.
#Select "Add a Printer" located on the upper menu bar of the window.
#Select the "Add a Local Printer" option located in the following window.
#Two options are then given: "Use an existing port" or "Create a new port." Select '''Create a new port''', and in the drop down menu select '''Standard TCP/IP Port'''.
#You are then asked for the Hostname/IP address (See [[#Collecting the Hostname/IP address| Collecting the Hostname/IP address]]).
##Remember, hostnames are entered in the format of: '''Printer'sName.subdomain.gac.edu'''.
##It is suggested that you enter the printer's hostname, as it's IP address may change over time. However, if the hostname for what ever reason does not work, the IP address is fine.
#The drivers for the printer must then be installed.
#If you are using a Windows 7 platform, simply locate '''HP''' under the "Manufacturer" scroll menu, and select '''HP Universal Printer PS''' under the adjacent "Printers" scroll menu.
#If using a Windows XP platform, you will have to locate the exact driver of the printer from the "Printers" scroll menu. If the printer is an HP Laser Jet 4200, locate the "HP LJ 4200" driver.
#In the next window, if given the option '''Use the driver that is currently installed(recommended)''', we recommend you do that.
#Give the printer a name that the faculty/staff member will be able to identify. (Ex: Department Printer, Color Printer by Huff's Office, Printer outside the door, etc)
#The printer will then install, and you are given the option to print a test page. Do that.
#Once test page prints, you can click "Finish" and exit out.

==Installing a Printer (Windows-Managed)==
*Managed printers are printers that are installed and supported by Marco or Imaging Path (see Managed Print List)

Microsoft Word

2010-06-23T19:17:04Z

Jrossow:

'''Microsoft Word''' or '''Word''' is a powerful [[word processor]] that is part of the [[Microsoft Office Suite]] developed by [[Microsoft]]. Microsoft Word is available for [[Windows]] and [[Macintosh]] platforms.

==FAQs==

===Which version of Microsoft Word is on most faculty and lab computers at �鶹��Ƶ?===
* Microsoft Word 2010 for PC machines
* Microsoft Word 2008 for Mac machines

Note: For Office 2007 or later, the default file format is .docx. This means that any computers running Office 2007 or later will be able to access such files, but if someone tries to access such a file from Office 2003 or 2004, it will not work. To ensure backwards compatibility, simply select the .doc format when saving the document to ensure that Office 2003 or 2004 users can open the document.

===How do I change the default line spacing back to single like in previous Word versions?===
Microsoft Word 2008 has a line spacing default set at 1.5 instead of 1 like the previous versions of Word. Microsoft's reasoning for this is to enhance readability. Despite this, 1.5 size line spacing isn't always appropriate for many documents at the workplace.

To change the default from 1.5 size line spacing to 1 start at the '''Home''' tab on the ribbon. Next click the '''Change Styles''' drop-down menu on the right hand side on the ribbon, then go to '''Style Set''' and click '''Word 2003'''. Next, click '''Change Styles''' again and finally click '''Set as Default'''. This causes Word 2007 to follow the style set of Word 2003, which uses single line spacing as default, amongst other changes.

===How do I turn on Foreign Language spell-check in Word?===
Go to the Tools menu from the top menu bar and select Language, a box will open up that will give you a list of languages from which you can choose the language you wish to spell-check in. Note, if you wish to spell-check some text that existed before you changed the language, you will need to highlight the text before turning switching languages.

==Microsoft Word 2007/2008==
Microsoft Word 2007 is the current version of Microsoft Word for Windows. It is the standard version of Word to be found on lab PCs, faculty PCs, and multimedia classroom PCs beginning Fall 2008. Likewise, Microsoft Word 2008 is the current version of Word for Apple and is the standard version for lab, faculty, and multimedia Macs beginning in Fall 2008. Word 2007 and 2008 brings the integration of the ribbon to the user interface, which is a new graphical layout replacing many of the formatting tool bars found in previous versions.

===Troubleshooting===
====Word 2007 crashes on close====
If you are having difficulty opening documents, highlighting text, using the scrollbar, and Word crashes each time on close, there is likely a problem with your profile's settings stored in the [[registry]]. In this case, repairing or reinstalling your copy of Word 2007 will not fix the issue.

To fix this problem, take the following steps:
# Make sure that Word is not running.
# Open up the [[registry editor]] by pressing Windows key + R, typing "regedit", and clicking "OK".
# Rename the following key to a temporary name: \\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Word\Data
# Start Word.
# If Word is working properly, delete the key that you previously renamed.

'''Note:''' deleting this key from the registry may cause your program to lose all of its settings. Deleting things from the registry is very serious and has the potential to mess up your computer. Be very cautious.
