WD95: Extra Tab Inserted in Multilevel Numbered Paragraphs (174997)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word for Windows 95
- Microsoft Word for Windows 95 7.0a
This article was previously published under Q174997 SYMPTOMS
When you open a Word 97 document in Word 7.x for Windows 95, an extra tab
setting is inserted at the beginning of paragraphs formatted as Outline
Numbered (Multilevel) with linked heading styles.
CAUSE
Word 97 bases the first line indent on an internal tab setting, and Word
7. x numbering bases the first line indent on the "distance from number to
text" setting. The Word 97 Import Converter (Mswrd832.cnv) cannot map this
feature back to the Word 7. x "distance from number to text" setting and
retains the tab.
NOTE: To view the "distance from number to text" setting, follow these
steps:
- In Word 7.x, click Bullets And Numbering on the Format menu.
- On the Multilevel tab, click Modify.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, upgrade to the latest version of the Word 97
Import Converter. For additional information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 162214 WD: How to Obtain the Word 97-2000 Import Converter
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with certain versions of the
Word 97 Import Converter.
This problem is corrected in the version of the converter available
with Microsoft Office 97 SR-2. For more information about how to obtain
the latest converter, please see the "Resolution" section of this article.
