WD97: Object Deleted When You Run Letter Wizard (158477)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q158477 SYMPTOMS
If you add an object or WordArt text effects to your document and then run
the Letter Wizard (Tools menu), the object may be deleted.
CAUSE
This problem occurs when the object is anchored to a paragraph that was
modified when you ran the Letter Wizard. For example, if a WordArt object
is anchored to a paragraph that is formatted with the Date style, and you
change the Date Line on the Letter Format tab in the Letter Wizard, the
WordArt object is removed.
WORKAROUND
If you have already run the wizard and your object has been deleted, click
the Undo button until your object appears. Attach the object to a paragraph
that is not a Letter Wizard element--for example, attach the object to a
paragraph formatted with the body text or Normal style and then rerun the
Letter Wizard.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Word 97 for
Windows.
