Hi David, Word will eat page breaks from txt files. The first time you open the file, the pagebreaks will be there. But if you save the file, close, and reopen, they will all be gone, replaced by Word's own fake page breaks. Kurzweil doesn't do this, so if you have it I recommend it for editing txt files. If it is only showing you a few pages then likely those are fake pages made by Kurzweil, but if there actually are page breaks it will show them to you. Kellie
