"Can't find Project or Library" for standard VBA functions How to make Table of Contents manually I'm trying to make table of contents manually, I mean I set the page of each of sections one by one. Here's my target:  and I'm using book class here.

It then seems natural to try to strengthen the result to other structures.  If $A$ and $B$ are, say, groups (or rings, modules, etc) such that there are injective homomorphisms from each to the other, then $A$ and $B$ are isomorphic.  I'm wondering if there are any results on this, or if there are known counterexamples.  The theorem for sets alone is nontrivial, so I feel like any results about how it holds for other structures would be quite interesting. How to replace a character by a newline in Vim I'm trying to replace each , in the current file by a new line:  :%s/,/\n/g    But it inserts what looks like a ^@ instead of an actual newline. The file is not in DOS mode or anything.  What should I do?  If you are curious, like me, check the question  as well. Why app updates download entire app instead of only "updates"? What are some alternatives to "hover" on touch-based devices? Came up recently in a 37signals podcast:    The straightforward, "brute-force" solution is to just use the first touch on a UI object as the hover.    It works. But are there other, more elegant solutions? For instance, could the hardware ever be made to support actual finger hovering? Display current layout (language code/country flag) in keyboard indicator Just upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10, and the keyboard indicator applet no longer displays the two-letter country code for the active layout.  This is terrible. Is this the default behaviour? Anyone using two layouts can't tell which language they're in.  I can't seem to find the setting for this, it used to be in the preferences for keyboard layout.  Update 1: In case this wasn't obvious - I have two keyboard layouts - English and Hebrew. I just upgraded form 10.04, where the country code (USA/IL) was displayed, overlaid on the flag.  Now all I get is a vague keyboard icon, and can't find the settings for this.  Update 2: this seems to be a , and is now back in Maverick Is it allowed/desirable to post code snippets? Instead of asking a question I would love to share the one or other code snippet I have created that is too small to make a full article on e.g. CodeProject.com or CodePlex.com.  Question: Would it be a good idea to post it as a Stack Overflow question? Or are there any other suggestions how to share it?  (Of course I could post it on my own weblog and then twitter about it, but I would love to put it in more of a programming context) Special event cards and timing What's the difference between &lt;b&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;, &lt;i&gt; and &lt;em&gt; in HTML/XHTML? When should you use each? Prove that if $n$ is not the square of a natural number, then $\sqrt{n}$ is irrational. Embed .mov file via 'Add Media' not working I know since WP 3.6 we've been able to upload and embed various file formats and that the 'Add Media' button effectively implements the correct media embed shortcode for us.  I'm having a problem in WP4.0 using 'Add Media' to embed quicktime (.mov) files. The embed works fine for the other supported video MIME types but I'm not offered 'Embed Media Player' when I try adding a .mov file to a post.  See screen grabs/explanation:   See how .mov embed has reverted to a simple hyperlink (recorders) at   Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this is, or to a possible fix so I can embed .mov as easily as .mp4 - seems to be the preferred format of the client. For the moment we're having to manually add the [video] shortcode ourselves in the text editor.  How do I check that embed is supported/enabled for .mov? Let us go   is a correct construction in the English language and definitely not:     Let we go   However, the question is: since us is an object-case pronoun, what is the subject of this sentence? What is the inverse of the $\mbox{vec}$ operator? There is a well known  operator $\mbox{vec}$ in matrix analysis.   I've vectorized my matrix equations, did some transformation of vectorized  equations and now I want to get back to the matrix form. Is there special operator for it? Increasing spacing between section number and title in the table of contents I'm using the simple ordinary \tableofcontents command to produce a table of contents, and I find that the resulting spacing between the section number and the section title is too small:    Can someone tell me how to fix this, please. My documentclass is memoir, if that matters. I just notice it now as I am new to Illustrator.  When I am in RGB mode, blending transparency seems to be easier as mode such as Screen, Multiply or Overlay looks good naturally.  If I switch the document mode to CMYK then the image is getting messed up.  I'd like to know, if CMYK is not ideal for blending options? Why is SQL Server consuming more server memory?
