Oh No! Not again! :-( Logo Graphics coming up as rectangles. Mix of MERGEFORMAT and MERGEFORMATINET field codes. (For some reason, only the little logos in the headers do the latter.) Template still absolutely fine with no link changes or corruption, so I built a new doc from it and did a copy and paste of stable bits across from the earlier version of my manual (did a mini-"Maggie", ta Steve H.) without grabbing any section breaks - and it looked lovely. That is until I had to close, then reopen Word 2000 / stinking 2. Argh! Now about to place my head in my hands, making further typing not only difficult but painful, using my nose as I belt my face against this nice, soft and springy keyboard. (Sort of like one of those pivoting drinking birdie things.) Hmm, mild concussion seems to help... Gee Mr Gates, Word 2002 really does make such "stable" document files. Stable as in the last straw, filled with horse manure. Any help or further consolation appreciated. ...and Yes, the Tools > Options > General tab > Web options... "Update links on save" option has been turned off all along, for everything. (Oh Mr. Maloney, can you please call International Rescue for me? My nose is now stuck on the spacebar and I have to type with my tongue. Bleah!) Cheers, Michael Michael E. Granat Qualified Good Tech Writer Dude Fellowship Of The Ring Of Tech Writers, Yeah Baby!
