Is there a guide for "open and repair" ?
Hi,
I have a long document. When I run open/repair I get the following list of what Word has repaired: 1) Drawn Objects 1 2) Internal Data Integrity (Type 4) 1 3) Numbered Styles 1; 4) Numbered Styles 2 5) Section and Headers 1 6) Section and Headers 2 I tried to locate Drawn Objects, it goes to a picture on page 1, but I can not see what was/is wrong with that. I don't understand neither the rest! I have locked my template.dot to avoid unwished updates of formatting and styles. Is it therefor that I always have to repair the document? Thanks for help Best regards Georg |

Have you had any more problems with that document or others? What version of Windows? what version of Word? Had anything happened before Word announced the repair- was this just after you locked the template, or after a Windows crash, or you had done some heavy editing, or what? regards Jay |

Hi Jay,
thank you for trying to help me. I really had a lot of problems with this document. Those araised (I believe) when we swapped from English Word to Swedish Word. Now I'm back to the English one. The main problems were that the file increased in size and styles and formatting simply did not work for some pages. I recieved a lot of help from this group and I was happy that it seemed to work. Now I have locked the normal.dot document so that the styles are not updated. But it seems that there are more "problems" and this error message I recieve do not help me to find the errors. Now I have: Office Word 2003 and XP. Thank you for all help Regards Georg |

Hi, Georg
If you haven't reviewed the FAQ site yet, you really should, including http://word.mvps.org/macwordnew/docu...ioncontent.htm Also, I understand that saving the document to HTML and opening the new HTML version can leave a lot of problems behind. However, not all Word document features survive the trip through HTML. I would also be tempted to create a new .dot file to associate yoru document with, and leave that .dot file unlocked. How's progress? Regards Jay |

Hi Jay,
I have now tried some days and it seems to work. The open/repair feature does not update the document every time. I am not sure what it was (delete revision handling, copy/paste into a new documents.....) Thank you for the help! Best regards Georg |
