Default How do I stop 'repaginating' every time I move to a new page?

Yes that worked - great. The only additional bit of info to add, is that the
sequence is:
- copy your problem document
- quit Word
- delete or rename normal.dot
- reopen word and paste into new document

If I deleted normal.dot, then opened word, and did the copy and paste, the
document was still problematic, but copying first, then getting a new
normal.dot worked fine. Although it did lose some formatting styles... but
worth it.

Thanks very much.

Did you also try the following: Rename the Normal template (just to
get a fresh
copy), copy your problem document (except for the final paragraph
mark) and paste into a new blank document?

Thanks for that.

I've followed the advice on recreating the template via 'save as

web' but
this doesn't correct the issue. I have no Master Document, so this

aspect
isn't relevant for me.

The other advice was on ensuring the product was suitably patched -

Office
update said that it was patched up to date, so that's a no-go as

well. Anyone
have further thoughts?

PaulD,
Continuous repagination could point to a corrupting document:

I have a 40 page document. In print layout view, the document

pauses to
repaginate, every time I move to a new page, or half way down a

page.
This means the doc hangs whilst it does it, and it's making my

life hard!
How do I stop it from doing this? I have looked in all the

options but
can't
find anything to do with repagination.
Thanks.
