I am using Word 2007 on Parallels v.4 Windows XP and Leopard OSX.
I have several collections of notes for law school that are 100+ pages, each
of which is formatted with styles, using built in Headings 1-8. I have a TOC
at the top that I have been using to navigate, but recently as I started
reviewing wanted to use Outline view and Doc Map.
I know that Doc Map has bugs, so I have been very careful to save a new copy
when playing around with that. I also found the workarounds on this site
very useful.
Recently I have had some trouble with Outline View as well. For instance,
it just now deleted Level 4. Just isn't there anymore, gone. Level 5 has
inherited some of it, in very odd places, e.g., I had text like (15-19)
after some of the Level 4 text which now appears after the Level 5 text that
came just below it.
Each of my levels in Outline View corresponds to a Heading #: Level 1 =
Heading 1, etc. So my Heading 4 is now gone too.
Just before it deleted it, I tried to save the document and received an
error message to the effect of, "Word cannot save, file path error, would you
like to save to C:/xxxx (I can't remember the path)". I clicked "OK", then
it prompted me to "save with fixes". I foolishly clicked "OK" again. And
came to where I am.
I am concerned that it is a Parallels issue because I have found no other
instances of this online. Thank you for your help!
