Hi Scott,

I'm having the same problem (discovered after sending a million dollar
proposal to a client!!!) - accepting changes and saving results in
corruption of header formatting.

Do you get any more information on what's actually going wrong?

How many sections in this document (how many different headers/footers)?

What does the particular header that "goes bad" contain?

If you first accept all changes in the header, then save, does that
cause any problems? And if you then accept all other changes?

If you copy/paste each section's contents into a new document,
recreating the sections (and headers and footers) as you go, does the
problem occur in the new document, as well?

My answers to your questions:
1. Saving and reopening while in Safe Mode results in the same
corruption.
2. Saving as XML and opening that alone results in the corruption.
3. My machine is running lean and mean (no doc mgmt software,
anti-virus, firewalls, etc.) on my office LAN.
