WD97: Equation Editor Objects Not Visible In Converted Document (157476)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q157476 SYMPTOMS
When you convert a Word 97 document that contains equation objects to
WordPerfect 5.x for Windows format, and then reopen the document in Word
97, the equation objects appear to be missing. If field codes view is
turned on, you will see the {Embed.Equation.3} fields; however, if field
codes view is turned off, you do not see the equation objects.
The document appears correctly when opened in WordPerfect 5.x or 6.x.
However, when you edit and save the document in WordPerfect and then reopen
the document in Word 97, the objects appear to be missing.
WORKAROUND
The objects are still present in the document, but it may be difficult to
locate them. Turn on field codes view to determine where they are located,
turn off field codes view, and then double-click the equation object to
update it.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article.
