WD97: Bullets and Numbering Lose Formatting with Track Changes (165564)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q165564 SYMPTOMS
When you delete or change a numbered or bulleted list when Track Changes
is on, you may receive unexpected results.
Case 1
If you delete a numbered list item with Track Changes on, the revised text
is struck through and appears with the number followed immediately by the
text without any indentation.
Case 2
If you delete a bulleted list item with Track Changes on, the revised text
is struck-through and appears with a square (instead of the bullet)
followed immediately by the text without the indentation.
Case 3
If you change a number or bullet format to a Wingding bullet format with
Track Changes on, the revised text is struck-through and appears with one
or two random struck-through Wingding characters preceding your actual
bullet.
NOTE: This behavior is different from earlier versions of Word.
WORKAROUND
If you undo the change or if you accept or reject the change, Word corrects
the problem and shows the text with the bullet or number properly.
STATUS
This behavior is by design of Microsoft Word.
