Where are the "Repairs made by Word" ?
When I start to save a document, this message appears:
"File contains repairs made by Word..." When as suggested, I choosebefore saving "Show repairs," the name of an item (e.g. "text boxes") appears. "Go to" gives this message: "bookmark does not exist." Why is WORD making repairs that do not seem to exist, or if they exist why are they not revealed? Anyone know how can I stop this behavior? |

Does this occur on all documents? If so are you using the same
document to create new documents? If not are your documents on removable media, such as a floppy disk? The errors Word is finding do exist. Typically these types of errors are in the internal numbering stored in the binary and are not viewable in the document so there really isn't anything to 'go to'. There was a time Word did not detect errors and repair documents. If a document contained errors they would simply corrupt and you would be unable to reopen them so be thankful this behavior *does* exist. :-) -- Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.

It occurs only in some documents, though not in any predictable pattern. It
does not occur when I start a "new document". The error is almost always is in "text boxes" "Beth Melton" wrote: Does this occur on all documents?

Hi ?B?REZU?=,
It occurs only in some documents, though not in any predictable pattern. It does not occur when I start a "new document". The error is almost always is in "text boxes" You might try renaming your Normal.dot template. If that is damaged, it could cause such a problem in documents created from it (new, "blank" documents). Renaming it will cause Word to create a new Normal.dot, and future documents may then display the problem less (or not at all).
