I've seen it many times over tha last 3 years, what a pain, scrolling up and 
down again will usually get some of the text back, but then I usually loose 
some other lines. This happens in win98/98se/NT4/and 2k and word since office 
97 version. I've seen it
on several machines, both at work (big corporation) and at home (4 machines). I 
doubt it's main memory, it just might be a video memory / video driver problem 
but it's very common.
