Strange problem WOrd 2000....

[Fabio]

HI,
I'm trying to edit a long document (about 300 pages) with images on .wmf
format put inside textboxes.
Well, I don't know why. While Word2000 page up the document, the number of
pages change and it starts to count many and many number of pages (and the
counter never end...). To see the document I have to break the paging up and
see it in normal view, but it starts again when I try to see the print
preview o when I try to work in print Layout.
Please help me, because I have to edit the discussion for my degree.

Sorry fo rmy bad english.... I'm tryin' to learn it.
Thanks
Fabio

Hi Fabio,

I don't necessarily have a lot of specifics on this, but from what I
can gather it has to do with the paragraph the object is anchored to.

Word is attempting to keep the paragraph on the page, and since the
object is also anchored to the paragraph it's trying to keep it on the
page, so it goes to the next page, and tries the same and fails again,
so it goes into a continuous repagination loop.

It may have to do with the Keep Lines Together Property or it could be
one paragraph is spanning multiple pages and the object is looking for
a paragraph mark to anchor to, and cannot find it, because no
paragraph either begins or ends on that page.
