In doc with replaceable keywords, following punctuation misbehaves
I'm creating a Word 2003 document that's to be used as a template. I've
highlighted keywords (single words, no spaces) with embedded comments that tell the user to double-click the commented word and type over it with the correct information. This works fine--the keyword is replaced and the comment is deleted--except when the keyword is followed by punctuation. Then results vary. In some documents, for the same user with the same options, double-clicking and overtyping deletes the keyword and leaves the punctuation. In others, it deletes the punctuation. If I insert a space between the keyword and punctuation, it leaves the space. Whats going on? I have the following Edit Options set: o Typing replaces selection o Drag-and-drop text editing o Use CTRL + Click to follow hyperlink o When selecting, automatically select entire word o Prompt to update style o Enable click and type Any suggestions on how I can get the punctuation to behave predictably? Thanks in advance! |
