Default Printing an Attachment containing {FORMTEXT}

I have a problem when printing an attachment received with an AOL
e-mail.

My PC uses WORD 2000 and Windows Me.

The attachment contains the statement "This work will be performed at
a fixed price of $123,456.00."

Pressing ALT+F9 toggles that sentence between "This work will be
performed at a fixed price of $123,456.00." and the sentence "This
work will be performed at a fixed price of {FORMTEXT}.

However, when the attachment is printed, the printed text reads "This
work will be performed at a fixed price of $0.00."

After the attempt to print the attachment, pressing ALT+F9 toggles the
sentence between "This work will be performed at a fixed price of
$0.00." and the sentence "This work will be performed at a fixed price
of {FORMTEXT}.

Several of my associates received the same e-mail and were able to
print the attachment without a problem, i.e., with the price of
$123,456.00.

In case it matters, the following settings were observed when the
attachment was first loaded:

(1) Tools, Protect Document, in the Protect Document dialog box, "
Tracked changes" was checked and "Comments" and "Forms" were not
checked.

(2) Tools, Options, Print Tab, under "Include with document" no blocks
were checked.

(3) Tools, Options, Print Tab, "Options for current document only",
"Print data only for forms" was not checked.


I will be grateful for any leads you can give me on why the printout
does not match the original text.
