Find Replace - why doesn't it let you mix wild cards with special
characters? Makes life far to complicated.
Styles - where do all these ______ styles come from. Did I define a "Body
Text 3"? I think not! There ought to be a locked down option for word which
forces the user to stick to the styles provided.
Master Docs - if these worked, then I wouldn't have to use FrameMaker (not
starting a tool war - I just find Wd more user friendly, when it works).
Number List Styles - too many objects! List formats ought to be attribute of
styles, not part of some wierd parallel structure.
