Insert new heading above first heading in Google Docs without breaking hyperlinks - google-docs

Suppose I have a Google Docs document with some headings, and I have sent out an email with a hyperlink to the first heading in the document:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/ AbTVfZtAPbMJeD08LDgV1QaPeQqm5giEoqoeqzgR6NHP /edit#heading= h.9thvmkhwr58r
In the hyperlink, the first string of random letters identifies the document - second string of random letters identifies the heading.
How do I (manually or programmatically) insert a new heading above this heading, without changing the ID of the existing heading?

Here's how to achieve this manually.
Example document with "Heading foo" (h.68hwuix3y3s4) and "Heading bar" (h.3h7fjygeosfl, not shown)
Create a new heading BELOW the current top heading. Here "Heading baz" (h.fbz5u461spta)
Use the mouse to select the old heading including the line break at the end. (Note, this will show the "wrong" id in the address bar)
Use the mouse to drag-drop the old heading to the start of the line below the new heading
Verify that the new and old headings have kept their ids

Share point - "Search this list" stopped working

My share point list search option box given on the top of the screen was working very well, but just realized that its no longer searching any keywords from any column. Simply shows the message "We could not find any results for ....." This list is a catalog with title, multiline text column, choice column, image column and a hyperlink column.

Out of all the required columns in a Sharepoint list, why does only the "Title" column have a required asterisk(*) next to it in the Edit/New form?

I created an Equipment Log list on Sharepoint Online that has four required columns:
Last Name
First Name
Start Date
Item (renamed from the default Title)
when I want to Edit an item or add a New item, only the "Title" column is showing with an asterisk(*) next to it on the edit form.
When I leave the 3 required columns (except Title/Item) blank, a new record gets inserted into the list but the columns have pink colored boxes with "Required info" text.
When I leave Title blank on the Edit form and click Save, I get this validation message
"An entry is required or has an invalid value. Please correct and try again."
How come I do not get the same validation message for the other 3 required fields?
Thank you.
new item form with only the Title column with an asterisk
new record with missing 3 required columns
I could reproduce this when setting a column to a required column, the old items would show "Required info" if there's no value in this field. This is by design behavior, which reminds you that column is changed to a required column.
Besides, it's by default that the Title column is a required column when we create a list. You could change this in this way: go to list settings-> click the column Title, select no for "Require that this column contains information". Like this:

Hyperlinks on a picture or map

I would like to take a picture, in this case a map of houses, and insert links over each house that shows owner details. Also have a list of owners that when I click on their name takes me to their house on the picture.
Say that is your map of houses. Whatever software you are using; Word, PowerPoint, Publisher, etc; you can add textboxes. Make a textbox for each of the houses and place it above the each of the houses. Make these textboxes set to "In Front of Text" so that you can put them above the map. Make the size of the textboxes the same as that of the houses. Then right click the textbox and click "Hyperlink". You can then add a website address or a link to another document.
To add link for the names of people, highlight the text. Right click the highlighted text and click "Hyperlink". Again, you can add the website link if wanted.
If you want the name to go to the house, you will have to create "bookmarks". Right click the text boxes we created before for each house. Then go to Insert > Links group > Bookmark. This is the screen:
Then type a name for that bookmark without spaces (e.g. House_1). Then click "Add". After that, highlight the name of the person, right click, and then click "Hyperlink". Then go to "Place in this Document". There should be a bookmark called "House_1" (or whatever you named it). Click that and then click OK like this:
Now each time you click the name (in my example, "Jack"), the Word Document will automatically scroll to that house. You can do the same in PowerPoint as well. Any clarification, leave a comment.

Sharepoint 2010 Content types Hyperlinks and Word QuickParts

Sharepoint 2010I'm slowly making progress with Sharepoint, but have encountered a problem with Content Types and Word Quickparts.
What I'm trying to do:
I want a Content type to hold summary information for manuals and related documents that might be located in separate libraries. I want to display this information in a Table within Word (by setting up a template) using Word Quick Parts>Document property fields.This table would then summarise all the relevant fields and their related links at the top of a document that in turn summarises information about a particular system.This Word document in turn would be stored in a separate document library.
This all works fine for dates, text descriptions, check boxes, yes/no fields and drop down selections as I can find the related Word Quick Parts>Document Property
However, the "Hyperlink or Picture" Type fields are not present in the Word Quick Parts>Document Property fields. SoAm I completely misunderstanding what content types are for? orIs there a setting within sharepoint that would make these hyperlinks visible in the Word Quick Parts?or Is there a better alternate solution. Thanks!
Hyperlink is not available as property in Word Quick Parts.
Sadly, you can access to this field in Word when you click in the property icon. This will display all the SharePoint property of the document with the hyperlink field.
A workaround would be to create a simple text field and to put the URL of the hyperlink field in this field. (With Workflow or Event Receiver)
An another deep solution is proposed in this link :
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/c7619237-baa1-4669-af65-0f0a39223aad/sharepoint-metadata-and-office-quickparts-hyperlinks-are-not-appearing-in-the-quick-part-list?forum=worddev
This is about create two properties, one for the text, one for the url. Then to arrange it in Word in order to get an hyperlink.
Since Microsoft seems to be removing a lot of its legacy web pages, the content of the above link is copied below:
a. In the sharepoint list, you will need two text properties, one for
the link text and one for the display text. Let's call them hllink1
and hldisplay1. For a sample document, put some text in each of these
properties.
b. in the template,
insert the hllink1 Document Property and the hldisplay1 Document Property. This is a temporary move that will let you change thevalues
of these properties without displaying the DIP
insert a HYPERLINK field as follows
use ctrl-F9 to insert a pair of field code braces { }
type HYPERLINK "" between the {}, so you have
{ HYPERLINK "" }
then insert another copy of the hllink1 Document Property between the ""
{ HYPERLINK "the Document Property for hllink1" }
c. select the Hyperlink field and use F9 to update it. When you show
the result (Alt-F9), you should see a clickable hyperlink where the
"display text" is the same as the link text
d. Click somewhere inside the display text, and insert the hldisplay1
Document Property.
e. Carefully select the remainder of the display text and delete it.
You should stil be left with a hyperlink that can be ctrl-clicked in
the usual way.
f. Modify the texts in hllink1 and hldisplay1. However notice that,
as a maximum, the hyperlink display text will update automatically.
The tooltip for the hyperlink does not update automatically.
g. Select the hyperlink and press F9 to update it. The tooltip/link
text should update

Remove leading "bullet" from a word document

I update a word document with an Excel macro
The Word starter has specific codes that may be preceded by a "Bullet" item (not just a period)
CtrlRep01
CtrlRep02
CtrlRep03
CtrlRep04
The above would allow for up to four entries to be replaced with new text
In case I only have two entries to be replaced, I blank out the remainder, thus the output would look like
Newly added text line 1
Newly added text line 2
How do I remove the orphaned bullet and the empty line? In the actual case there may be as many as eighty (80) CtrlRepXX entries!!
You select the empty lines including bullets and click on the bullet button visible on the top of tool bar in Word. Still you have issues, Kindly reply me with screen shots.
