WD2000: Cannot Undo Style Gallery Change (211405)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Word 2000

This article was previously published under Q211405

SYMPTOMS

When you open a Microsoft Word 2000 document and copy styles into the Word document from another template through the Style Gallery, you cannot undo that action by clicking the Undo button (or by clicking Undo on the Edit menu).

CAUSE

The Style Gallery does not write the changes to the Undo stack; therefore, no changes can be undone when you click the Undo button or click Undo on the Edit menu.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

MORE INFORMATION
