Default Word 2000 - Printing Text Boxes, text is not printing

OK. I'm guessing that something has happened to the target of the link,
then, since it disappears when Word updates fields on print?

We only have the one printer in the office
I did however manage to solve it by removing the update links tick box
against the Tools - options - print tab

Have you tried printing to a different printer?

Hi,
I have a document that has a header page that is blank followed by 3
pages
of data that contain text boxes. The 3 pages are repeated each time for
a
different person. My software populates data into these text boxes.

When this document is produced and I open it, it looks fine (it is
saved as
.rtf). But when I print it, the first few pages of data are blank with
empty
text boxes. The text that was in the text boxes has dissapeared.
But, the same 3 pages that are repeated, at the end of my document for
one
person print fine.

I tried saving the document as .doc but this made no difference. I have
also
entered in tools-options that the drawing options is ticked under the
print
tab.

I am using Word 2000 and a colleague is using 2002 and we both have the
same
issue printing the same document. However, another colleague using Word
2003
can print it fine.

It is really strange. I can send the document to you.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
