Hi Jay and Tony,
Jay Freedman schrieb: It works for me, too, in both directions (.doc to .docx, and .docx to .doc). I will try it (but have to reinstall SP2 before...). thanks, Lorenz

We're not working with original docs and planned to check this particular problem as well. bye, Lorenz

Hi,
did anyone succeed in getting the hotfix? The requested email didn't come within the announced 5 minutes. We asked for the hotfix this morning (about 5 hrs. ago) and got a confirmation. Don't they send it anymore due to the second problem?? Regards, Lorenz

I got it successfully yesterday and checked it out before posting here.
I have just requested it again (using a different e-mail address because I didn't know whether it might reject the same one again) and got the e-mail in less than a minute. If it's not in your junk mail, I would try again. -- Enjoy, Tony www.WordArticles.com "Lorenz Hölscher" wrote in message ... Hi, did anyone succeed in getting the hotfix?

Hi Tony,
we tried it from two different email addresses and looked into the junk mail folder. Well, I'll give it another try from a third one... thanks, Lorenz

Glad you finally got it.
I would be interested to know what benefit Microsoft get for making this such a complex procedure - not just the e-mail, but the frequently changing password as well. I know you can't answer, I'm just musing  -- Enjoy, Tony www.WordArticles.com "Lorenz Hölscher" wrote in message ... ...yes, my third email address was worth a response ;- regards, Lorenz

I have done some testing on this and it does appear that the hotfix is
causing the destruction of document variables. I will raise the issue with Microsoft and report back when I have more information. -- Enjoy, Tony www.WordArticles.com "Jay Freedman" wrote in message ...

Hi Tony,
Tony Jollans schrieb: I have done some testing on this and it does appear that the hotfix is causing the destruction of document variables. I will raise the issue with Microsoft and report back when I have more information. is it ActiveDocument.Variables or ActiveDocument.CustomDocumentProperties? Are they being destroyed by saving the document or do I have to delete one to destroy the others? Regards, Lorenz
