Word 97 problems

["Cathy De Rubeis" <de_rubeis -at- hotmail -dot- com>]

Hi,

I have been hovering for the past 3 weeks and have been dazzled by the 
depth/scope of knowledge in this group.  I need some of that knowledge in 
trying to resolve a few persistent Word problems I have been having.

My first Word problem involves inserting Visio drawings.  I copied the 
drawing from the first draft of a Hardware Installation Guide and pasted it 
into the updated version of the Guide.  It pasted into the document fine, it 
saved alright but after I closed it and reopened the document the Visio 
drawings were replaced by big red "X"s.

My second Word problem involves setting styles that include bullets and 
numbering.  I created a comprehensive list of styles before beginning the 
new version of the above Guide.  However, in creating my "procedure" style, 
when I added the numbering to the style setup, I would lose my margin 
settings.  I tried setting the numbering and then changing the margins.  
This seemed to work until I reopened the document and found strange 
numbering/margins occurring.

Third problem is my numbering is all over the place.  It continues where it 
should restart and vice versa.  Again, I set the renumbering in the 
different sections, looked created, saved and reopened to find a nightmarish 
hodgepodge of numbering.  My document is 1.97 MB - I don't think it's too 
large or is it?  Is there a way to have numbering restart automatically when 
a certain heading is selected?

I wonder whether the problems I am having with styles is related to the 
Visio drawings disappearing.  Any ideas/helpful hints?

Thanks,
Cathy
