Still puzzled re display changes
I posted this problem earlier and the only respondent suggested a reference
that was excellent (and which I have used since) but which hasn't covered the problem. I have a largish document (840 Kb) and I discovered that if I toggled on 'Display changes on screen' and then toggled it off again, a few paragraphs that were there before the whole procedure would be missing. Anyone experienced this before? Word 2000, sr1 and 3. XP home Yours Puzzled (aka Worried Blue Eyes. Who remembers that?) |

Still puzzled re display changes
Are we talking about toggling the view of tracked changes or hidden text?

It's a long time since I supported W2k3, but I seem to recall that this was
a bug. There may have been a hot fix that you could get if you called Microsoft support but this may have been with W2k2. You should still be able to still get this patch but not for long as MS only actively support a product for 5-years from end of life. -- Terry Farrell - Word MVP http://word.mvps.org/ "aalaan" wrote in message ...

Well, blocks of text just disappear when I toggle the "display changes on
and then off. They were there before. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... Are we talking about toggling the view of tracked changes or hidden text? -- Suzanne S.

That's it! I have been working round it by simply not saving after such a
toggle. wrote in message ... It's a long time since I supported W2k3, but I seem to recall that this was a bug.

So we're talking about tracked changes? I'm sorry, but I have Word 2003,
where there is no such toggle (only four "views": Final, Final Showing Markup, Original, and Original Showing Markup). I assume these are not deletions that you are somehow accepting? -- Suzanne S.

Thanks Terry. Do you happen to know if the fix should be applied before or
after sp1 and sr3 (or sr1 and sr3!)? wrote in message ... It's a long time since I supported W2k3, but I seem to recall that this was a bug.

I am unsure which order these patches were released but my gut feeling would
be after SR3: had the hot fix predated SR3, the hot fix should have been integrated with it. Terry "aalaan" wrote in message ... Thanks Terry.
