Quick note on a Word problem in Mac

I had a document that displayed only the first 7 pages (~1000 words) in Print Layout view even when the Word Count display stated 4000+ words.

I could view all the text only in Draft view, but the tables could not be viewed.

Save As a new file in .htm/.html format didn't work.

Copying and pasting (Track Changes OFF) to a new document didn't work.

Fiddling with Hidden Text selections and Column Numbers also didn't work.

What DID work was Save As a new file in .docx format and checking the box to Maintain compatibility with previous versions of Word. (The original file had been saved as a Word 97-2004 Document.)

Huzzah!

Hope that helps!

Shhh

I've been exchanging FB messages with an online acquaintance on and off for a few days. He's a cool enough dude.

(I mean, he's sending me pics of him with his kids and asking if we'd be interested in joining them; it's a strange way to set up a play date!)

I see it as conversation, although Enfant Terrible has wondered about his motivations. I said that he's married and is a Catholic... but that doesn't mean anything if you actually want to cheat on your spouse (not that OA is intending to do that)... you know?
