Lost Quick Parts items

geotso · External Since: Oct 28, 2009 Posts: 5

I spent over an hour to make three tables, modify, format and add them to
Quick parts. However, after saving, closing and reopening the document, those
tables were missing from the gallery and the Building Blocks Organizer.
Is there a way to get them back?

Where did you save the Quick Parts? Note that they won't be available at all
times unless you saved them to the Building Blocks.dotx template (or to any
template in the Document Building Blocks folder) or in a template loaded as
an add-in.

I didn't change anything. I saved them where Word default saves them: In
building blocks.dotx

It seems as if something is preventing you from saving to the template,
then.

Are you on a corporate network?

Nope.
I'm a home (and the only one) user-Administrator, working on a win7.7100
environment.

Those that were installed during Office 2007 default installation, plus Adobe
PDFMaker Office COM Add-in (from Adobe CS4 suite).

It seems that it has been solved!

After your question about installed add-ins I tried to disable the Adobe
add-in and create a new Quick Parts item. This item (another table) it was
there after re-opening Word. Even if I re-enable the Add-in.

BTW I had to run Word as administrator in order to disable the add-in. To do
that I tried Herb Tyson's suggestion from another thread:
http://tinyurl.com/ye9pp5l
However that didn't work for me. The solution:

Find winword.exe itself to run it as administrator, instead of any shortcut.

Thanks for your help...
(I'll keep in mind Mayor's sugestions. His site had helped me a lot in the
past).
