MS Word Legal and Corporate - Your Music Does Not Start Because It Is Not Placed At The Right Location… Scenario :  Operator calls.  They have been asked to do a Presentation where there will be music playing while the animations and transitions are occurring.  The operator can not get the music to start along with the opening transition which is what was requested. So normally, we would load the music on slide 1 using Insert Audio .  Under the “ Play Back ” tab, under Audio Tools , we would make sure it start’s “ automatically ” and-plays across “ all slides ”.  I generally use “ High ” for volume level but experiment with that.  You can also hide the audio icon while you are in there if you wish.  By the way, double clicking on that audio icon that sits on your slide you were in when you loaded the audio opens the Play Back Tab as well.  In this situation slide 1. Here is the problem we found .  Under Animations, you need to bring up the “...

MS Word Legal and Corporate – So You Are a New Secretary and/or a New Administrative Assistant Volumes 1-3 I was always lucky enough to have been given the opportunity to work in top tier firms for many years.  I took any position that would  allow me to get a foot in the door. Well, I have been a Secretary/Para, Corporate trainer, outsourcing trainer, trainer for the public, Document Services Coordinator even lead operator at certain times and in order to gain my knowledge in top tier legal firms, I had to go through a lot of trial by fire.   When I look back at how I acquired my knowledge, it was not always under the most calm of circumstances.  Much of the time, we had never come across or dealt with the material that is in the first 3 volumes of this 3 volume compilation.  What an advantage I would have had, if I had had the chance to have become familiar with the jargon and procedures that are throughly and comfortably covered in the 3 books.  When I w...

MS Word Legal and Corporate - My Folder Contents are listing from Z to A.  How do I stop this? Scenario :  Simple enough but annoying just the same.  Got a call from an attorney who said each time she looks up files on her Desktop folder her laptop displays all of the contents (files and folders), in a Z to A format instead of an A to Z format, Click on the folder icon at the bottom of your screen.  Look for Desktop in the Linktree .  Click on Desktop . Your Desktop file folder will open up. Go to View Tab Go to Sort By Choose Ascending  Your files should now display A-Z.  Things like this happen.  But, as you can see, not a big deal.

MS Word Legal and Corporate: Is This A Memory Issue or What?

MS Word Legal and Corporate:  Is This A Memory Issue or What? Scenario:  A call comes in from an individual who is working within Power Point.  Not a Power Point issue per se, but more of a photo display issue.  When a photo is selected and comes into Power Point, the photo displays fine.   But :  When they navigate to the folder on their desktop that contains the photos that they wish to use on their slides, they only see photo placeholders with the name of the photo underneath but  NOT  the photo itself. My first move was to attempt to ask for small thumbnails thinking that their computer had a memory problem.  Even asking for Small Icons (thumbnails), did NOT change the situation.  Thoughts were maybe their hard drive is very full and their system is conserving memory wherever it can take it from.  When viewing the amount of room available on the hard drive at least half the hard drive was empty so that is not the issue.  A...

MS Word Legal and Corporate- I Did What You Said and I Still Do Not See It… Scenario :  Secretary calls.  She said that she cannot see the Headers and Footers.  They were missing altogether.  She explained that she wants to especially see her footer in order to see her page numbers.  Got it so far? The first thing I did was to ask her to switch over to Print Layout View because in Draft View , you will not see your Headers and Footers.  Well she did that, and nothing happened.  Still no header and footer.  All she sees is a divider line between each individual page . Well, if that is the case, we need to turn on the setting that will allow us to see our headers and footers in Print Layout View. Go to  File ,  Options ,  Display , place a check mark next to “ Show white space in Print Layout View .”  She will see them now.  And yes, even if you cannot see your Headers and Footers, you can see them if you go to Print - the...
