Hello,
Does anyone have an idea to solve this problem?
Thanks for your help.

“… are trying to publish a grammar of their target language
that was done many years ago. The document was converted from a pre-DOS
format to Winword 6 by … and subsequently converted to
Winword 6 (German) under Win 3.11 German. Later on they upgraded to Win
98 and Word 97 (German). It has been heavily (several months work) edited by
them for formatting issues using Word 97(German) under Windows 98(German).
The dilemma is that Word will not allow any changes to the page layout,
section layout, page numbering – the whole page setup. It will not allow
you to even click OK on the page setup dialog, even if no changes were
made — you can only click cancel. The same problem occurs with
sectioning — you can’t appear to change some of the section formatting,
such from “continuous” to “next page.” They can add new sections and
edit them.
This obviously is affecting their ability to format it for printing. Do
you have ideas of what could be the solution to this problem? They have
tried creating a new document and cutting/pasting into this new
document, but the problem then occurs in the new document.”
