Default Style not properly applied

hello to you all,
The situation is
* Working in Word2003
* The document contains Formfields, and is protected for formfields
* The document is build using styles
* Style "heading 2" has a grey background set
* The style, which is applied on the formfields, is "Standard".
(there
are no formfields in a Heading2 style)

Now, often a user copies a part from another document, into a
formfield. The paragraph above the formfield is a Heading 2 style.
When this copied text only contains one paragraph, the pasted
paragraph is formatted correctly with style Standard.
But when 2 or more paragraphs are pasted into the formfield, only the
last paragraph of the pasted tekst is formatte correctly. Al other
paragraphs are formatted incorrectly: When I select
that paragraph, the style displayed is "heading 2". The font however
is that of "Standard" (like it was in the sourcedocument), but the
background and spacing, is that of 'heading2'.
Whenever I type a space into the formfield, and then paste multiple
paragraphs into the formfield, the problem does not occur (everything
pasted is formatted as Standard).

Now if I Delete the formfield, or if I remove the protection, the
problem not occurs.
Does anyone know how to make the pasting work correctly, without
losing the protection?
Many Thanks,
Rinze Smit

Can you reproduce this behavior in another protected document?

Hi Stefan,

Yes I can, and did (but forgot to mention that in the first post).

It could be a bug in Word 2003 (which I don't have available to test).

What happens if you Edit | Paste Special, and choose to paste as
"Unformatted Text"? Does it behave correctly then?

Hi Stefan,

It looks like a bug.
The "Paste Special..." menu-option is not available, since the
document is protected for formfields.
Your reaction made me do a test in Word2007, which I have on a
testmachine, and yes: No Problem!!!
Now sorry for us, we're not planning to migrate to Office2007 this
year or next year.
Looks like we have to put up with this problem. I'll have to learn the
users to type a space first (before copying).

Thanks for your input.

Rinze
