I have a number of documents that were created by copying then editing an
original file. I want to create a new document based in the original, but
containing only a single page. If I copy the original document, delete t=
he text
on the unwanted pages (page 2 et seq), and then do
Page>Delete>page2-6,when I try to save the document OPW crashes with the
error message, "OvnPro has stopped working".
Is this likely to be a bug in OPW or a problem with the original file? C=
an
anyone replicate the issue?

I wonder if save is set up to not save the undo buffer, flushing that is =
often the cause of crashes.
Save undo buffer was unticked =85 it is now ticked. We'll see if that
makes=
a difference.
The fact that you explicitly use the delete option implies there must be =
local content on the pages - otherwise they'd be auto-deleted (unless
you h= ad that turned off which is unlikely).
Well, I looked hard but couldn't see any local content -- only the
header/f= ooter on the Master Page.
A possible workaround, is delete the pages, then save the document as DDL=
, and reload.
Yes, I did that =85 and it seemed to work, but on reopening the file in
OvP= ro, at some point (blank) page 2 recreated itself.

There's another piece of odd behaviour I've noticed with OPW. Normally,
whe= n you open a Windows (e.g. WORD) document and then re-save it, it
is saved = to the same folder. At the moment, my copy of OPW seems to
want to save doc= uments to the folder where another document was last
saved. In other words,=
say I save document FRED to directory BERT, then switch to directory
PETE = and open a new document TOM. When I come to re-save TOM, instead
of saving = to PETE, OPW tries to save to directory BERT. Is this normal
behaviour for = OPW?
