Document not printing & Word97 crashing

["Faulk, Merv L." <MLF3 -at- valmont -dot- com>]

	I had a recent problem with a Word97 document not printing and
Word97 crashing.  I think my problem had to do with "creating list
numbering" (see below).  If anybody has similar problem, I found several
solution(s) at http://mvps.org/word/FAQs/AppErrors/CorruptDoc.htm .  

	"If you create list numbering using the Format + Bullets and
Numbering dialog, this is likely to lead to a corruption arising eventually,
especially if you also have the "Automatically update document styles"
checkbox ticked on the Tools + Templates and Add in's dialog (less of a
problem with Heading numbering than other types)."
	This may of been the primary culprit.  I was using "Automatically
update document styles" and document started to fail to print after about 9
pages.  Went in and did what they suggested for remedy (see below) and
document started printing.  Also, defragged my hard drive, and made a new
template for future sections.  MS knows about this bug in Office97 and never
has fixed it.  Various people have figured out work-a-rounds.  It's
interesting to note that the problem still exists in Office 2000!
