A problem in Word 2007 on linked files
Has everyone encountered this?
a), create a document with Office Word 2007 b), insert a .docx file as linked c), save it on disk d), unselect "Update automatic links at open" option(Word Options- Advanced-General) e), open this file directly f), close it directly without any changes result: i got a prompt to save changes to this document, is it as designed by Word 2007? |

There are possibly "changes" that may take place depending on the content of
the document even though you don't edit it yourself: if there is a DATE field, if there is font substitution - just to name a couple. -- Regards |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac wrote in message oups.com...

A problem in Word 2007 on linked files
Hi Bob,
Thanks for you reply. Can you confirm that so long as the document with a linked file(e.g. word file) is opened, even though user don't make any other changes after that, Word 2007 will think this file is "dirty". i wrote a COM Add-in and found that the Saved property was changed to "false" after opening the file with linked.
