Understood. But I never regretted my move to Word 2000. It is much better.
However Microsoft has of course now 'withdrawn support' for this version and
it is necessary to apply two service packs to the original, one of which
can't be obtained any more! :-(

As I make a living with words I simply
cannot afford the time and chaos that can apparently arise from these
later
'improved versions'. It has long been a beef of mine. IMHO it is
outrageous
when an 'update' is issued that introduces bugs, loses or corrupts files
and
generally leads to a great waste of time, to say the least.

Aalaan,

My sympathies entirely. I too make a living from words. That's why II
haven't progressed beyond Word 97.
