Default Potential MAJOR bug in KB969604?

Note, however, that the hotfix does not "fix" any variables that have
already been corrupted.

Peter, you missed Graham Mayor's posts in this thread on 2 July:

Now tested - and it does appear to fix the problem with the variables.

I'm not sure what other information is available for this. One of the
other
work arounds is to save the document/template in Word 2003 ".doc" ".dot"
format. It seems like it's only the Word 2007 document formats (docx,
docm,
dotx and dotm) that are affected. I realise that this impractical for
many
organisations.

Could someone with the appropriate Microsoft contacts keep this tread
updated so that we're aware of when a fix (other than removing KB969604)
is
available to this issue.

Many thanks to all - Peter Hewett
