Crash Saving Document with TOC Field as WordPerfect 5.x Format (133127)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word for Windows 95
- Microsoft Word for Windows NT 6.0
This article was previously published under Q133127 SYMPTOMS
When you save a Word 6.0 for Windows NT or Word 7.0 document as a
WordPerfect 5.x document, a general protection (GP) fault or an
application error may result if the document contains a table of contents
(TOC) field.
CAUSE
This error occurs if the document contains a TOC field that was
created using styles. This behavior does not happen if the TOC field was
created using Table Entry (TC) fields. If both TC fields and styles were
used, the error will still occur.
WORKAROUND
When you have finalized the table of contents, select the table of
contents
and press CTRL+SHIFT+F9 to unlink the TOC field and cause the TOC results
to become normal text.
NOTE: Once the TOC field is unlinked, it becomes normal text instead of a
field, and you will not be able to update it.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with the WordPerfect
converter supplied with Word version 6.0 for Windows NT and Word 7.0.
