SYMPTOMS
A Word 7.0 or Word 97 document, containing fields with the Format (\*)
switch, may give an incorrect result when saved and opened as a Word 2.x
for Windows (*.doc) file.
Case 1: Error Message
You may receive the error message "Error! Bookmark not defined" as a
result of a field containing the CharFormat formatting switch. For
example, the following field
{ref <bookmark name> \* charformat}
should give you the bookmark text formatted with the font formatting
contained in the first character of the field. If the first character of
the field (the 'r' of 'ref') is formatted with Arial, then the text
displayed as a result of the field should be formatted as Arial. When you
display the field code, instead of the error message, the field may appear
as follows:
{r ef <bookmark name> \* charformat}
Note the space after the 'r' in ref.
Case 2: Wrong Case
You may receive the wrong case formatting when you use the Format (\*)
switch to specify the type of numbering desired.
For example, the following page field
should give you a page number of i (lowercase i), but once the file is
saved as Word 2.x and opened, you will receive a page number of I
(uppercase I).
