Technet article Q189175 refers to this issue in Word 2000.

Microsoft has a free converter download at:

Sorry. Word 97, Office 97.

This measurement could be an indication that the paragraph and its style came from another word processor. You might try restyling the paragraph to normal (or all the paragraphs with that style), then delete the style with the bad measurement, and then recreate the style.

Hope this helps.

If you follow the Seven Laws, you will not go wrong.

It’s possible the document is corrupt. Can you open the document in Word Pad? You might look at article Q87856 in the Microsoft Knowledge Base.

My experience with DOCS is that the Word Save As is disabled — the user gets the DOCS Save window. Then Word will default to what it does — save the document in the same file format it opened it in. At that point, DOCS doesn’t really care that it’s not “really” a Word file (even with a doc extension). It’s possible to create a way for the user to get to the native Word Save As feature.

Do you have a TM (trademark) symbol above where the numbering breaks up? Is it possible that there’s direct formatting on the “affected” paragraph?

What version of Word?
