Word 2000 on Windows XP - document changes length

J

James Douglas

An important document I created in Word 2000 on Windows 98 is now larger when I open it under Windows XP. The format, fonts and settings have not been changed at all. But the document, which was exactly 2 pages now extends by another half a page under XP. Yet, if I open exactly the same file on my wife's PC running Windows 98, everything is as original and exactly 2 pages long. Please help.
