In that case, it may be the printer driver that's at fault. the stock
answer: make sure that you have the latest driver for your printer and then
delete and reinstall the printer. (Of course, it may be the graphics but the
printer is easier to deal with!)

Terry, thanks but why is this handled differently to all the other fixes
and packs? How on earth does one go about 'calling Microsoft' in
Australia, I wonder?

BTW, have discovered and verified a most peculiar phenomenon this morning.
After this problem occurs and the text is partially missing from the
screen, the printing is also all garbled with overprints. But the file is
*not* actually corrupted. If the apparently spoiled file is saved and then
reloaded all is OK. So I surmise this is a display and print problem and
not a file problem?

That patch is a 'Hot Fix' that you can only get by calling Microsoft and
explaining your problem.

GM all.

A little while ago I reported on here an apparent bug with Windows 2000,
where if display changes is toggled on and then off again, several
paragraphs get lost from the document. Terry mentioned that he thought
this was a known bug, for which Microsoft had issued a patch. Where
exactly do I get that patch? The MS site is very difficult to navigate.
I already have sr 1 and 3 installed, so presumably this patch comes
after those? Any help would be appreciated..
