1111073 2010-06-19 00:43:00 Can someone tell me what is defined by student package for office 2007 on Trademe, is it like a gun licence where you have to show documentation before you can buy a shooter.
Do you have to show whatever students have to buy it cheaply.
I am a student of the history of German tanks does that count?

1111074 2010-06-19 00:55:00 student home version does not need ID, you can get it from the shop. it can be any students or non students, just non-profit like a career person come home and wanna type a newsletter for his computer club.

the ultimate steal can only be available to certain students, you also need a qualifiable student email and you have to download it. you cannot go to a shop.

1111075 2010-06-19 03:02:00 i spent some hours working on ms word today

with the instructors its strange. the formatting is just not consistent. you can put spacing before and after the row of words - what happen is it sometime works and other times it might not work. so i end up pressing enter and then if i want turn spacing on for the 2nd line.

similar with tab stops, it might work on one section of the document and it doesn't on another part.

sometimes the formatting cannot be done and you have to retype the paragraph, similar with left right centre or justified settings.

at times also under print layout it looks exactly the way you want it. once you hit print preview it is different.

:lol:
and tell me about in a work environment when you may be dealing witha 50pg report or such. :lol:

the instructors just said don't worry about it .....

1111077 2010-06-19 03:09:00 the same stupid thing happens at work eh ...
they also conflict with templates the org sets up.

it is like you do it this section - doesn't work.
move a few lines down the same page and do exactly the same thing and it works. it's stupid.

1111078 2010-06-20 09:26:00 I want to get Office 2010

But I still resent having to pay full price when I bought 2003.

How much money does Bill want to make out of me.

Surely there should be a discount for current owners. Like a car trade-in (oops not a good example)

Have you tried deleting your normal.dot file? This is the basic format template used by word. If you have saved special formatting styles to your template, then you will lose them.

If your normal view vs print view changes, check to make sure you don't have tracked changes that have not been accepted (or rejected) present.
