Format Painter Drops copied material when scrolling to next page
HI:
I have a user receiving an error when using Format Painter -- when working a newly created document it, Format Painter copied material, is not dropped when scrolling. However, when working with a particular document the Format Painter icon (even on Double-click) disappears when scrolling to the next page. I am not sure where to look to turn this off in Word 2007. I think it may have something to do with the style being used, not sure and can't find the setting either. Thanks Mike |

Format Painter Drops copied material when scrolling to next page
FWIW, I find CopyFormat (Ctrl+Shift+C) and PasteFormat (Ctrl+Shift+V) more
satisfactory than the Format Painter. Once you copy a format, it stays on the "Clipboard" until you copy another, so you can apply it to as many paragraphs as you like (you don't have to select them all at once. But also note that you can select lengthy selections without scrolling by clicking at one end of the selection, using the scroll bar to get to the other end, and Shift+clicking there. -- Suzanne S.
