Displaying pages problem
I am using Word 2002 and have just pasted 4 pages from another document into
a new document. Some of the material has come from a web page and some from an old W97 document. I am now only seeing (able to print) one page although if I switch to normal view from print layout view I can see all of the page breaks but still can only print one page. I have copied and pasted the document into a notepad file then saved it and deleted the word file. I then opened another word document and copied and pasted the .txt file into it and all I get is the first page of text and nothing more...in print layout view. It just says page 1 1/1 However when I switch to Normal View I can see all of the text which should cover four pages but cannot see any natural page break dashes. The text is normal, TNR, size 11. Also, without any text involved, if I open a new document and keep pressing enter, the cursor does not go any further than the end of the first page. Does this sound like Word is corrupt and if this is the case....considering all of the patches, what is the best way to repair it? Have run the Detect & Repair but still the same result. Any help appreciated Anita |

Displaying pages problem
Try the following in the problem document: On the Format menu, click
Column. At "Presets," click the "One" option (even if it already seems to be selected). Click OK. Does this fix the problem? If so, open normal.dot as a document (for help, see the "To make other changes" section of the article at http://word.mvps.org/faqs/customizat...alTemplate.htm) and then repeat the above procedure. When you are done, save and close the file. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Anita" wrote in message ... I am using Word 2002 and have just pasted 4 pages from another document into a new document.
