    - Publisher file in email I would like to be able to have a flyer appear in an email that I send. When I try to include the flyer, it becomes an attachment that has to be opened separately. Is this making sense? I am using Office 2007 (both for Publisher and Outlook). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Tag: How can I change text direction in a Table? Tag: 175276

    - to Make Labels with different photo and name I probably will want the size of an 8 label page but they will have a different photo and name on each. Is this possible in Publisher 2002 SP3? Word 2002? Works 2000? I've been all over the net looking for some info to no avail. aaarrrrgh. I did make one label in Publisher and I like the looks of it but for the life of me I cannot find out how to get different ones on one sheet to print. Why can't it be as easy as dragging them? I'll make them individually instead of a mail merge. lol Thanks for any input. AnnE Tag: How can I change text direction in a Table? Tag: 175255

    - File Conversions from Publisher 2000 to Publisher 2007 I was running Pub 2000 on Windows 98 and upgraded to Pub 2007 on Vista. I bought the upgrade yesterday. I opened one of my 24-page newsletters (printed landscape, 2 pages per page) and everything was fine except . . . page 2 and 3 were now pages 23 and 24! What are my options? It is easy to fix my template, but not restore my past issues. Is there a fix for this? TIA, MMF Tag: How can I change text direction in a Table? Tag: 175251

    - Saving multiple pages as web pages in Publisher 2003 I have been send a Publisher 2003 document from another person. I wish to convert it to web pages so that I may load it so that other people can view it via a browser. I have tried to save it as single file web page or web page but only page 1 is saved as html. If I try to save each page individually, giving them an unique name, but only page 1 is saved, each time with the unique name. The on-line help does not appear to help much here. Does anyone have an idea what to do? I'm sure that I must not be the 1st to ask this. Alternatively is it possible to save the whole publication as a single web file?

All is working fine except I can not find where to select the preferred email account to use - I use several on my computer and it keeps using the default. Under 'send email' it says select email account and send your publication as a customized email' - where do I go to do this however?

    - Publishing on the Web Hello there. My name is Michael and I'm having a challenge with Publishing my web page on the Web. Here is what is happening. I am currently using Yahoo Geocities and uploaded my web pages. I go to view the Index, my first page, and it comes up well (outside of the graphics that I have not uploaded yet). So I click on one of the links on the side bar and down on the lower left corner (where the 'done' is) I see the correct page listed, but the webpage blanks out. I look up at the address and it still shows the address of the 'index' page. If I go to the address and manually type the next page that should have been linked to it will send me there.... Anyone have any idea what is going on? Here is a link to the first page: http://www.geocities.com/micisa_enterprises/index.htm Tag: How can I change text direction in a Table? Tag: 175232

    - Picture frame box Hi there, I've just upgraded to publisher 2007 and i'm having trouble getting to grips with it, the main problem being the lack of quick and easy way of adjusting the frame around a picture. On publisher 2000 i'm sure there was a button you clicked and the frame shrunk down to the size of the image. The only way i've found of doing this is on 07 is by manually changing the frame by editing the wrap points. This is very time consuming when you have a lot of pictures to change. Oh wise oracle please show me the error of my ways. Thanks in advance Tag: How can I change text direction in a Table? Tag: 175200

    - Slow printing mail merge Hi, I'm hoping to find a solution to slow printing from Publisher 2003, 4-up postcards with thousands of name/addresses being merged onto a very simple Publisher doc (each 4-up sheet spools at about 12K in size). I am printing through a Fiery print controller on a Xerox 252 using the PCL driver (PS was no help so far). I have already applied changes recommended in KBA 891904, which did speed up the processby sending in larger batches. I also checked the setting changes shown on KBA 279385, but saw no difference. Spooling jobs is still taking an unusually long time, though. Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated! Tag: How can I change text direction in a Table? Tag: 175196

    - Publisher 2003 on Vista Home Edition I bought a new computer with Vista Home Edition already installed. I have Publisher 2003, and when I installed it to the new computer it seems to work fine; but, it only wants to open the files I saved as a word 2007 doc, not as a pub file even though the publisher file was saved as a publisher document. I thought, since 2003 is not the most current version, that the computer is having problems saving the docs. So I downloaded the 2007 publisher tria,l the same thing happened. I checked the properties of publisher and they seem to be ok. WHAT'S WRONG ? PLEASE HELP! Tag: How can I change text direction in a Table? Tag: 175180

The days of the calendar has text that discribe what will be happening on that day. Is there a way to one, change the format of the text for all days of the calendar at once and two, change the dimensions of the boxes for each day so they are all of the same height and width at once? In other words I would like to change the properties of one of the days of the week and apply those same properties to the rest of the days of the week on the calendar without having to change the properties of each day one at a time.

    - Need help saving a file! Well let me start off by saying that I feel lost using the Office 97 programs! I had to make a new resume so I got myself a template off of the site here. It opened up in publisher so that's where I created my resume. I've put a lot of time into it and now realize that I think I made a huge mistake! How the heck do I save it as a more "acceptable" file without screwing up the format??? (for uploading as an attachment) Or is that just not possible? I've tried saving it as a word document, but like I said, screws up the whole format. I'm really lost, don't know what to do! Thanks in advance. Tag: How can I change text direction in a Table?

    - Line up text with baseline guide AND have space between paragraphs I have text boxes with multiple columns and I want to vertically align the lines of text across columns, which I've done by aligning my body text style to the baseline guides. But I also want a space between each paragraph that is smaller than a whole line spacing (in Word it would be 12pt font with space after paragraph = 6pt). I have tried adjusting my baseline guide spacings and my style paragraph settings to every possible combination but I can't seem to achieve this. Settings currently are: body text = TNR 10pt, line spacing 10pt baseline guide = spacing = 13pt, offset = 0 This gives me the spacing I want and it's all nicely lined up, but I have no extra space between paragraphs. I'm very close to resorting to blank paragraphs of a different size, but would really rather not! Tag: How can I change text direction in a Table? Tag: 175086

    - Completely, totally and utterly OT: Picture It Photo & Print Studi Yes, I know the app in the subject's ancient (released towards the back-end of 2001, IIRC) but ISTR that the images and clip-art were of very high quality and I'd like to access it for general usage (i.e. in Publisher and PagePlus X2). I have installed PIP&PS no probs, and can launch it but, when I attempt to open any project (whether blank or predesigned) I am, rather unceremoniously, without the merest hint of an error message, dumped back to the desktop. Now, I am thinking that, when it was first released, XP (I'm running Home SP2) was still either in beta, or had just been released, which is probably the cause of my woes. Now, M$, as is its wont, has encased the images and clips inside proprietary 'sbs' and 'sbt' archives (it's the former that actually contain the needed - the latter just look like some kind of 'pointer' file). So, I suppose my question is twofold: - 1) Can I persuade PI to open its own projects and/or 2) Is there any way of extracting the images from within the 'shoebox' files (I did find something called 'xtractor.exe' but that doesn't appear to want to run outside of PIP ('unable to decompress the package due to corrupt archive.' I've no idea what it means by 'corrupt archive' - I assume it's referring to itself). I am attempting to design a flyer for a friend's chocolaterie - and am wanting to do it the lazy way!

I want to create a table in Publisher to use as a survey form.

The first column should be wide enough to take a sentence.
The other 5 columns should be narrow - but each of these 5 columns has a
header which would look better on its side - i.e. flowing from bottom to top.

I can change direction in Excel - but not in Table

High-light the column, Right-click the table, format table, Cell Properties tab,
Check Rotate text within Autoshape 90 degrees. Is this what you want to do?
