I was working on a document in Word. I accidentally pinched something and I can’t see the content anymore, I see only 1 empty lsit
I want to return back the contents of the sheet. Although all headings and word counts are preserved in the document

Basically that: as I copy (Control-C) text from the browser (Chrome), I would like those copied sentences to be sent to a ordered list in an OrgMode document:
copied text 1
copied text 2
etc.
Any ideas? This would be very useful.
Thanks!
Please tell me how to display in the result sheet the full string of the word you are looking for, and not in pieces as in default in Recoll,I'll try in more detail:
I have recoll installed on my computer (which uses Xapian).
There are so many files.
I want to use recall as an alternative to grep
I indexed my data and search, but in the resultant window I do not like the output:
I want the whole row to be highlighted as if in a grepe, where I have the search word and output it immediately to the Result Sheet.
And now it looks like it gives out a piece of text where the searched word is found, but only partially, then it is divided by several points and again a piece of text, and again. You can see an example in the image, for example here (default settings) https://i0.wp.com/www.linuxlinks.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Screenshot-Recoll.jpg?resize=768%2C596&ssl=1
This is how recoll works. It shows you "snippets" of text around the search hits. You can adjust the snippets parameters (size and number of context words) in the preferences Gui Configuration, Search Parameters section. You can also hit Preview, and then shift down/up arrows, to browse the result documents previews, for a more complete view.
Is there a way to make the Hyperlink field have dynamic display text as well as dynamic URL? So far, I have the following merge tag, which is correctly pulling the URL from my CSV data source
{ HYPERLINK "{ MERGEFIELD URL}"}
I hit Alt+F9 to toggle between field source and display preview - I see I can set static text as the URL's display text, but I need to use a merge code as the display test.
The hyperlink documentation just indicates static text, I don't see a way to add a merge field. A couple of place I've seen indicate you can insert a merge tag when editing he display text, but it doesn't save correctly (on Save, it just drops the hyperlink entirely).
By default, if you insert a mailmerge field into a hyperlink field, the hyperlinks will all show the first record’s address as the 'Text to display' text. Here's how you can do get a mailmerge to display your preferred default 'Text to display' text instead:
Disregarding mergefield issues for the moment, insert a hyperlink
into the document in the normal way, choosing whatever 'Click Here'
text you want in the 'Text to display' box.
Select the inserted hyperlink and press Shift-F9 to expose its field code.
Replace everything in the field after 'HYPERLINK' with your mergefield.
Select the field and press F9 to update the display.
In Word 2007 & later, you can make the display text variable also, by following these additional steps:
Position the cursor anywhere within the display text.
Insert a mergefield pointing to whatever data field you want to use for the display text (this could even be the same field as used at step 3 above).
Delete all of the previous display text either side of your last-inserted mergefield (note that this field will likely have updated already).
Execute the merge.
After merging to a new document, use Ctrl-A, F9 to update all fields. Without this, the mergefield hover text won’t update to the correct targets.
Note 1: The above is only for merged output sent to a new document; it does not work with merges to email or print. For merges to email, see: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/912679
Note 2: Hyperlink fields modified this way are liable to cease functioning once the merge has been executed. Accordingly, it's best to save mailmerge main document before doing the merge and not re-save it afterwards. If you need to make changes to the mailmerge main document, don't make/save them after doing a merge; make/save them beforehand.
I have a Word document that has fields where information is populated by the user manually. There are couple of other documents with same fields and the user would like to populate those automatically, based on information in first document. How to achieve that? Documents are in .doc format.
I've tried looking around before coming here, but every site I've managed to find (that has title of "Filling fill-in forms in Word" and similar) actually describes how to prepare a document for such action, not how to insert the data in from other document. I'm maybe missing something very obvious, but can't figure it out.
All documents have "Allow only this type of editing in the document:" ticket and "Filling in forms" selected under "2. Editing restrictions" in Restrict Editing menu.
This is a borderline question, as it technically falls in the end-user area. But it could also be an interesting question for developers as there is no direct way to achieve what is required using the object model, except by following the steps below (i.e. inserting IncludeText fields).
In the source document, it's necessary to use content controls for text input (form field dropdowns work fine) and bookmark them. The content of a legacy form field textbox will not come through.
In Word, in the target document, go to Insert->Object->Text from file
in the dialog box click the Range button, type in the bookmark name
select the option to "Insert as Link"
This creates an IncludeText field in the document that references the file path to the source document and the bookmark content:
{ INCLUDETEXT "C:\\Test\\TestFormsProtection.docx" Text1 }
Note that there is no reliable (sometimes it might work, but other times not) way to use relative file paths with Word field codes.
The relevant VBA code to generate this field at the end of the active document:
Dim doc as Word.Document
Dim rng as Word.Range
Set doc = ActiveDocument
Set rng = rng.Content
rng.Collapse wdCollapseEnd
doc.Fields.Add rng, , "IncludeText " & Chr(34) & "C:\\Test\\TestFormsProtection.docx" & Chr(34) _
& " Text2", false
I am trying to insert a table in an unalterable format into a Word 2010 file while retaining font size and sharpness.
So far, I have tried preparing the table as a pdf, then using Insert -> Object -> Adobe Acrobat File to get it into Word. Unfortunately, this inserts the table within margins automatically created on the Word page, and distorts lines and font size within the table.
Here are some things I've tried:
- Setting the margins of the page in the recipient Word file to 0" before importing the pdf.
- Printing the pdf on on a smaller page (7" x 9") then importing onto a page 8.5" x 11".
Neither worked; the imported pages were resized and the table printed badly.
The pdf I used was prepared from Word using PrimoPDF.
Please feel free to suggest formats other than pdf for the transfer if they can be more easily incorporated into the final Word document.
Your help will be appreciated.
First, prepare the table as a Word document. Go to the Review tab, and select Restrict Editing. Set Editing Restrictions to allow No changes (Read only). Press Yes, Start Enforcing Protection. Save file.
Next prepare the recipient document in Word. Go to the Insert tab, select Object, Create from File, and browse to find and insert the file.
The table will be inserted into the recipient Word file as a document within a document, and its 'Read Only' protection is maintained. All fonts and line styles remain as originally set.
