Default Word 2007 Format Painter doesn't work when d-clicked

The page numbering is definitely the problem but the work around doesn't work
for me either. I have to take out the page numbers completely. Any further
news on this little bug? Thanks. Michael

Hi Roberta,

There are some scenarios where the double click does not work with the format painter. It can depend on the updates applied to
Office 2007 as well as the type of content in the selection you're trying to copy, or interference from an add-in.

If you create a new document and create test text using
=lorem(25,1)
then apply formatting to one paragraph and then try to use the format painter via double click can you copy the formatting to
multiple locations?

The format painter works with a single click, however when double-clicked it
works once then I have to go back and click it from the tool bar. Is this a
bug in 2007? Not every PC here with Word 2007 is doing this. We are on
Windows XP Pro.
