I've just received a chapter from the book editor who said it crashed
and he lost almost all of his changes (he doesn't save often enough?),
so I'll do the copyediting before he does the content editing. I
Inserted the text into a new file (which had my styles in it -- works
better than trying to put a template onto an existing file), and it's
a .doc file in Compatibility Mode. So far the only anomaly I've
encountered is that when I apply Bullets or Numbering to a paragraph
or group of paragraphs, it treats it as a tracked change and I have to
do Accept Change to make the balloon go away.
("Track Formatting" is of course unchecked -- but it was checked the
first time I looked in the option, but isn't any more -- but it still
happens.)
Also there's a string of paragraphs a short way in that have a variety
of Heading styles and Page Break Befores, for no visible reason.
I've closed Word and it still happens, but I haven't Restarted.
Can anything be done?
