By	Problems using Character Entry etc
Lachlan Williams	Uploaded - 22 May 2002 17:28 Bill, thanks a lot for the 'sucessware' provision of the program. I have just downloaded the 97/2000 prototype. (Using Word 2000 as part of Office NT.) I am having trouble using any of the character entry or title boxes (I think they're called macros, but I could be spectacularly wrong). Whenever I try to enter data I get a message "Err = 1005. This Bookmark Does Not Exist"
Bill Williams	Uploaded - 23 May 2002 13:48 It sounds as if you are trying to use the template directly instead of installing it as a TEMPLATE and then creating an empty document from it by File...New... Try the installation instructions which I gave on this page [Link] Bill
Bill Williams	Uploaded - 23 May 2002 23:06 I will repeat the instruction here, as there is a lot of irrelenant stuff on that page. Bill. Install Winzip, then if you did not save the Scriptwriters Toolkit to disk, download it again, saving it to disk in say your "My Documents" folder. Make a folder called "templates" within your "My Documents" folder.. Double click the downloaded Toolkit and Winzip should open it. Extract all the toolkit files into your My Documents/Templates folder. Open Word 2000, drop down the Tools menu and select Options. In the options box select the File Locations tab. Highlight Workgroup Templates and select Modify. Within the modify box drop down the Look In list and navigate it to your My Documents/Templates folder. Click OK. The result should be that Workgroup Templates is pointing to the folder with the Scripting templates in it. OK all the tools menu stuff. The system is ready for use. ===== To start a new script, in Word 2000, drop down the File menu, select New, then select the appropriate template, e.g. film4. You will then get prompts for Film Title and Character names etc. There are more details in the .doc files which unpacked with the toolkit.
