Resize multiple images in Word 2007

Usually there are a number of images in my word documents. After I fill in all the contents, often it is necessary to change the size of all the images. For example, all are reduced to 50% of its original size. Word seems not to provide a straight way to do it. However, we can use the repeat function. Note that the file should be saved as Word 2003 format first if you use Word 2007.

• First, choose one of the images, resize it. For Word 2007, see help here. 
• Then choose the next image, press the repeat button. For more information about repeat button, see here. The keyboard shortcut  for repeat function is CTRL+Y or F4.
• Do the same to every other image. Done!

Word fails to start

When you try to start Microsoft Word, and receive the following error message:

Microsoft Word has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

You read the information given on the screen and click on the Send Error Report or Don't Send. In the following window, it asks you to start in safe mode or not. If you click yes, Word will start, but no add-ons. If you click no, then Word will repeat the error message again, until you close the Word in safe mode. How frustrating!

A solution to this nightmare is deleting the normal.dot template file. It usually locates at
C:\Documents and Settings\your user name\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates on Windows XP.

If the solution won't solve your problem, open the template fold, and delete the redundant .dot files.

Endnote: The specified Word library can not be unloaded because it is in use

When my friend opened word, an error "The specified Word library can not be unloaded because it is in use" appeared. He told me it was working before.

This error occurs because the Endnote is disable in Word. The solution is given in http://www.endnote.com/support/faqs/CWYW/faq48.asp.
