Hi David,

If Office 97 isn't patched to at least SR-2 then that is my first suggestion. There were a *lot* of bugs in Word corrected in both the SR-1 and SR-2 patches.

Here is some info on how to obtain the updates:

SR1: http://office.microsoft.com/Download...f97detail.aspx
SR2: http://office.microsoft.com/download...f97detail.aspx
Post Service Release (QFE 8909):
