Error 4198

Hi folks,

Using: Windows XP/Word 2003.

I'm mystified by an error that pops up when I (and another person) open a
template (as a template). We get the error message "Error 4198 command
failed".

We can click past this message and get to the template.

The template has custom styles but no macros, toolbars, autotext. There is
very little text, just enuf to show samples of each style.

On the documents based on it, Auto Update of Styles is set OFF.

There's a problem which may or may not be related to that error. On
documents based on the template, if we modify the Space Before of a style and
save the document, when we open the document, the spacing has reverted to the
orginal.

I've switched to Normal.dot temporarily to see if the problem goes away --
and it does go away.

I'm continuing to look for other causes of the spacing problem, but I can't
help wondering about the error message.
