Reducing the File Size of Word Documents


If you have make documents using MS Word and you make many formatting changes for the paragraph, fonts, page etc., you will see your file size gets bigger. 

Microsoft Word saves files by blocking, so any change you made for your document it will create a new block with the new formatting and disappear the old block without deleting it from the file.

You can solve this problem.

1.       If you open your file and select File / Save As and give your file a new name, it will save  only the active blocks with out the old ones. 

2.       If you compare the two files you will see a difference in size.

There is, however, a much easier way.

1.       Choose Tools.

2.       Options... 

3.       Open the Save tab. 

4.       Uncheck Allow Fast Saves.

This makes Word rewrite the entire document file from scratch each time it is saved. 

The save command takes slightly longer, but your files can be drastically smaller (especially if you've done lots of formatting changes).

How to fix broken IE ??

Hello friends..

If your Internet Explorer is broken..
then Before you begin to even consider running a repair install of the OS, let’s try to do a repair on IE instead.

THE REPAIR PROCESS
1.  Start the Registry Editor by typing regedit from the Run box. 

2.  Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Active Setup \ Installed Components \ {89820200-ECBD-11cf-8B85-00AA005B4383} and then right-click the “IsInstalled value.” 

3.  Click Modify. From there, you will change the value from 1 to 0. 

4.  All right, go ahead and close the editor and reinstall IE from this location. /http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.mspx
IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG

If messing with the registry and something goes horribly wrong, you can use “Last Known Good Configuration (F8 Safe Mode)” or a Restore Point to get back to where you were before, with your settings. 

Then you can try again, this time taking care to watch the portion of the registry you are changing. 
Most people who have troubles with this end up changing the wrong registry key.

I Hope this tut helps some members.
