Re: Suboptimal behavior of markers when moving or copying text

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi Klaus:

You're saying that Word should not paste things where you put them? Some of
us would disagree with that :-)

It is your privilege to turn the display of fields and bookmarks ON while
editing. If you do, you can then see the bookmarks and you won't hit them.

Word has, by the way, behaved exactly the same way in this regard since it
was invented. I am not sure why you have suddenly struck the issue, but it
has always been possible to damage cross-references with a careless cut or
paste.

Cheers

Yes. What you say is exactly correct. When editing (and particularly when
editing with tracked changes on...) you have to be VERY careful when working
close to fields (any kind of field, not just endnotes).

Yes. But anycase, Word shouldn't behave that way, and previous versions
didn't. Pasting something before a paragraph that starts with a marker
shouldn't iclude the copied text inside the marker.
