Microsoft Word file and the "select the encoding that makes your document readable" proble

What should I do when the "select the encoding that makes your document readable" box appears when I attempt to open a Microsoft Word file saved on my PC?

I need to be able to retrieve the information saved in the file!

Microsoft Word file and the "select the encoding that makes your document readable" problem!?windows

This usually happens when you are opening a file that is not a Word file, or one of the files that Word has a converter for.

You simply choose the best looking output sample on screen and then let Word do the conversion. It usually does not do a good job since the file type is so much different than what Word can handle.

But as a last resort it is often the only way to retrieve a really old or odd file.

Microsoft Excel Function.?

I am trying to make a function on Microsoft Excel that has a double criteria. A1 has to be bigger than A2, and B2 has to be bigger then A1. If it passes both of those criteria then I need it to have the words C1 has. If it doesn't, I need it to say the words that C2 has. Here is what it looks like.

.......A.......B........C

1....#.........#.......Words

2....#.........#.......Words

3........................................

The best answer will be first or the best one that works for me.

Put the following in C1:

=IF(AND(A2%26gt;A1,B1%26gt;B2),"Yes","No")

EDIT: Thanks to Anna and genericman1998 for rechecking my work. What I posted initially didn't work, so Jarhead posted "didn't work". The formula above is actually an edit but I didn't specificy it as being so - sorry for the confusion.

I tested batmaing's formula (Answer #1) in a spreadsheet and it is working for me.

Jarhead, what values/formulas do you have in cells A1,A2,B1,B2 that the formula doesn't work for you?

Edit added: batmaing thanks for the clarification. Now all that remains to do is for Jarhead to try the corrected formula for himself.
The previous answer should have worked, based on the second explanation of what you are looking for. The only reason that I can think of that it would not be working for you would be because of rounding issues, which would make it look like the two values are equal when in reality, they are not. If this is the case, and you want to compare the rounded values, you can use the ROUND function in your formula - replace each cell reference in the previous answer with "ROUND(cell, n)" where "cell" is the cell reference and "n" is the number of decimal places to round to.

Here are links to some decent tutorials for you.

Outlook will use what ever connection is available so the LAN option will work regardless. There are full details in the links I'm sending. Complete with images. Look them over and contact me if you need more help.

You have to have the smtp/pop server names, like for gmail i believe its;

incoming mail server: incoming.gmail.com

outgoing mail server: outgoing.gmail.com
i had to do that last week for work. i know you need a pop3 server...everything else should be pretty much prompted for you.

Microsoft word defaults?

how can i change the font defaults on microsoft word?

Microsoft word defaults?anti virus protection

Here's a way to save the font to Normal.dot that won't affect anything else you've done to Normal.dot. (This assumes Word XP (2002) or an adjacent version. Word Vista (2007) probably has something similar.)

1.Click in the paragraph.

2.Click on the Format-%26gt;Styles and Formatting menu item.

3.In the bottom part of the sidebar that pops up, the style for your paragraph should have a bold box around it.

4.Hover the cursor over the style. A listbox arrow should appear. Click it.

5.Select Modify from the list box.

6.Click the Format button and select Font.

7.Perform the adjustments you want .

8.OK out of everything.

All paragraphs in the document with that style should adjust themselves.

Now, to carry this one step further and fix the style on the template your document is based on (probably Normal.dot, but not necessarily), do this:

1.Click the Tools-%26gt;Organizer menu item.

2.In the left-hand list box, find and click on the style you changed.

3.Click the Copy button between the two list boxes.

4.Click OK.

When you close your document, you may see a warning message asking if you want to save the changes to Normal.dot. This is an anti-virus measure, intended to alert you that something has changed in Normal.dot. In this case, you made the change, so you want to accept it.

That should do it.

Go into a blank Word Document. Dont type anything but change the fonts and styles to the way you want them. Go to File Save As and change it to normal.dot. This will change the default fonts and styles to everything you want. Make sure you save it to wherever your current normal.dot is located. Usually inside Program Files\Microsoft Office\
Click on file, page setup. You should be able to change it in there.
