pclafferty Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Perhaps it is a MS-Word issue I need to research, but I thought I'd start here only because the issue I'm experiencing is consistently, if not exclusively, occurring while using Accordance. The issue is nothing more than me pasting Scripture text into Word documents: Word is hanging 30% of the time, the only solution to which is force quitting Word. Is anyone else experiencing something similar? Any guesses on the cause(s), and moreover the solution? many thanks patrick Lafferty Dallas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Patrick: Which version of Word? Which OS? Which version of Accordance? What language and what are your export settings and choices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclafferty Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 Office for Mac 2011 OS 10.10 Yosemite Accordance 10.4.2.1 Macbook Air 2014 as for language, if you mean which language I'm pasting, it's text from the ESVS and as for export settings, let me attach a screen shot of what they're set to presently thanks for your assistance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Simpson Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Hi, I am sure Helen will have a better response but: 1. Is there a reason you are not using Unicode? 2. Try clicking Unicode and copy and pasting and see if Word still hangs please. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclafferty Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 I'll toggle on that preference. I assume that's the default position since I've never fiddled with it (so far as I know) I'll see if that corrects the problem thanks for the idea!

Helen Brown Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 We have noted for a long while that Microsoft products like PowerPoint only accept unicode input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclafferty Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 well, I made that unicode setting change...but I continue to encounter the issue, sad to say...not placing blame anywhere--I know it may be MS issue...just wondering if you had other ideas? many thanks Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Brown Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Patrick, have you tried updating Accordance to 10.4.5, with the latest free bug fixes? This may help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclafferty Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 I'll give that a try, Joel, and see if that works thanks for the idea (I didn't know there was an update from 10.4.2.1!) Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
