  • question about wordpad, because the lines are separated by a blank line

    When I type in WordPad, the lines are separated by a blank line, that is, the 1st line climbs to the 3rd line, with the 2nd empty line, it takes double up typing something.  It's the same thing with the types of different fonts.

    I tried to use 1.0 spacing of lines in the tab "paragraph" Section; but this tab doesn't seem to work properly.  The lines are always separated by a blank line.

    Looking forward to your reply and thank you.

    Wu Carlotta

    Set the line spacing to 1.0 and uncheck the ' Add 10pt space after paragraphs... :-)

  • How do uninstall you this Word Pad stupid program?

    Somehow, installed MS partition program Word Pad which causes problems of saving files in Word. I want it off my PC. How it go down?

    WordPad has always been on your computer so it can be assumed that something has changed to ask you a question. WordPad is integrated and cannot be uninstalled if you need to fix the file association for the documents at the office.

    In Control Panel > programs and features select Microsoft Office, and then change at the top. In the dialogue of the Office Setup program, you must have the repair option

    Or control panel > default programs > associate a file type check all the .doc * and see that link to Wordpad and not Microsoft Office Word

  • Suddenly I can't save anything in Notepad, Wordpad or Paint, using Windows Vista. Help, please!

    Hello.

    I can't 'Save' or ' save under ', using Notepad, Wordpad or Paint. It is a recent development that occur all the same day.

    A summary of each error message indicates that there is a problem with the particular program that requires Windows to close until a

    solution is found.  It is followed by a pop-up stating that DEP closed every program to protect my computer.  As a last resort, I then tried

    to 'Save' in Ms Works / Word Processor and that too suddenly had to close with a similar message (less the DEP pop up).

    It is obviously a case with very strange place. I scanned my system with Malwarebytes Pro and Norton Anti virus software and nothing was detected.

    I would be very happy to help in the restoration of the normal features to these programs to anyone who is familiar with this type of problem.

    I am running Windows Vista Premium / / SP2

  • Why I can not dictate in other than WordPad and Notepad word processing applications?

    It doesn't seem to be any problem with my camera, because I can dictate into WordPad and Notepad.   However, I use EditPad Light as my default text editor, but for a reason that the voice recognition program does not recognize other processor as being capable of speech recognition dictation applications.  Speech recognition works very well in Internet explore, because I dictate right now.

    I set as my default text editor EditPad Light, so I don't really understand why it cannot be used with speech recognition.  What I read in the instructions, the application of speech recognition is supposed to work with any program that can receive text entries.  However, I just tested with Microsoft Word, and it does not accept dictated either, for some reason any.

    If anyone has a solution for this problem, I would really appreciate knowing how to fix it.  WordPad and Notepad, are both good programs, but they have significant limitations, compared to applications such as Microsoft Word, and the application that I use for light editing of text called EditPad.  Even if I did have the opportunity to try it, I hope I'll be able to use HTML editors that are part of the Web site software that I dictated.

    Comedian Hi 71,

    Thank you for visiting the website of Microsoft Windows Vista Community. The question you posted says that the Windows speech recognition program does not work in Microsoft Word, which is related to Microsoft Office, and would be better suited to the Office Discussion groups. Please visit the link below to find a community that will provide the support you want.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Office/Community/en-us/FlyoutOverview.mspx

    You can try to install and configure speech recognition and handwriting in Microsoft Word and check if that can solve the problem.

    You could try returning to the site of Vista compatibility for more information on whether or not EditPad Light is fully compatible with Vista.

  • Font colors are lost after saving and reopening files with WordPad

    WordPad allows me to change the colors of fonts in my file very well. But, after I've close it and reopen it, the color disappeared and returned to black. The files in question are plain text files.

    Hello MG-10,

    I was not able to reproduce this problem, as my font color has been saved.
    I open Wordpad. Typed in the text, it turns red. Saved the file. Reopen the file and the police were always in red.

    If this isn't what you've tried, please let me know your steps.

    Click on "Run as Administrator"
    At the command prompt, type: sfc/scannow

  • Will not except the wordpad window placement... is moving all over the screen.

    I have this annoying problem... I open a wordpad document and set the widnow investment that I love and that you close the document. When I re - open the document window has shrunk and moved to another part of the screen.

    Often the window will be very small... almost half the size of my screen.

    I know that I can use the properties to maximize the window always open to but I work with several documents simultaneously and need access to my other links and expanded running does not allow this.

    Is there a way to keep the wordpad to remember the location of the window?

    And while I'm on this subject, my excel 2000 does the same thing, but it slides to the top of the screen, each opening until the title bar is off the screen (I keep my taskbar at the top).

    Thanks in advance

    Go to start / Control Panel / folder Options / display and check the box next to remember each folder view settings.  If it is already done, this obviously won't work.

    I don't know what else to think.  This should not occur and there is no settings in Wordpad to control this type of behavior (or on the desktop also).

    As far as Excel goes, try to post the question on the Excel Forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/excslcreate/threads where experts in Excel will be happy to help you.  Maybe this solution will solve Wordpad as well.

    I hope this helps.
