Subject: RE: Fun with Word
You want "interesting effects"?
Heck, that happens almost every time I create / work on a Word document
of perhaps two-dozen pages or more in length.
* "Fun" stuff like all bulleted text going to regular body text but
retaining the "Bulleted Text" tag name.
* Same for all numbered text.
* I once had the last 30 or so pages of a 35-page file disappear. The
file size indicated there was more there than just a few pages, but all
I could get was the first few pages and NOTHING more. The next morning
-- just before I was ready to key in the file all over again -- the file
opened correctly.
Duh!!
