Steve,

Sorry I don't know. I am not sure if a document with saved versions like
yours is similar to a Master Document or not. If it is, while this link
won't fix it, it might help explain why it occurred.

Yes. Thanks, I can. However, there are two problems with that. (1) I
will lose all my saved versions. (2) I'd like to know what caused
this in the first place. I have been doing edits in a copied version
of the doc, like you suggest, but it's still very unsatisfactory. I
realise I could laboriously copy and paste each saved version and
save it in the new document, but it'll be clumsy and tedious. I need
to know how this problem occurred, and how I can avoid it happening
again.

Can you copy everything except the last paragraph mark to a new
document and then edit that new document?

This the third time I've posted this problem, and as yet no one's
come up with a solution!


I recently opened a document in Word 2002. Everything was fine,
except when I pressed the enter key nothing happened.

I tried opening another document, and the enter key worked normally.
The same with other programmes.

It is only this one document where this seems to be happening, and
it's damned annoying, because I need to edit it.

There's nothing otherwise odd looking about the document - The
already existing crs are still there; the text is not in a long
line; the file is not protected or anything like that.

Can anyone PLEASE help?
