Default Some commands not working in *.docx that work in *.doc

Rhonda I just found a conversation with Jay Freedman MVP that seems to
acknowledge it is a bug in Word 2007 on document close. I use my own
bookmark/macro function on close so doc close does not bother me and when
doc is open I use Shift F5.

Hope you find a workable solution..

Hi Jules

Can you give me examples of these 'cases'?

I have exactly the same document I created in Word 2007. It is saved as
test.docx file and as test.doc file. I can go to a place in both documents
and save and close each from there. When I open the test.doc file, the
SHIFT+F5 command works, but if I do exactly the same on exactly the
test.docx
file, SHIFT+F5 does NOT work.

Hi Rhonda from WA,

Shift F5 does work in 2007 files. As always has been the case there are
instances when Shift F5 doesn't work.

Hope this helps.

Word 2007 SP1

Further to my post earlier today on embedding linked graphics, it
appears
that there are other issues with *.docx files. For example, the Help
says
that you can use SHIFT+F5 to return to the last place you were at when
you
saved your document.

This works fine in Word 2003, and works fine for Word 2007 documents
saved
as *.doc files.

But it doesn't work for *.docx files.

Can anyone point me to a list of things that DON'T work in *.docx files
in
Word 2007? I've found at least three today, and am wondering why this
format
is the recommended one when so many things just don't work in it.
