Re: Word 2002 - problem wih linked items in INCLUDETEXT



Cindy, (or any other smart helpful people on this list...)

Thanks for your suggestions.

I'm using Word 2002, SP3 on Windows XP Home Edition.

I double-checked that the bookmarks are present and unlocked in the child
document, but the links still aren't displaying correctly in the parent
document.

For example, in the child document there is a cross reference {PAGEREF
BOOKMARK1 \p}

In the child document, this is displayed as "on page 30"
In the Parent document, it is displayed as "Below"

If I remove the \p qualifier, the parent document lists the last page number
that the Included text runs to (i.e., The INCLUDETEXT runs from page
140-200, the link now points to page 200, even though the bookmark is on
page 170)

I'm wondering if this is related to FieldCalcSecurityLevel registry entry as
outlined on MS Knowledge base on http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=330079
I tried entering and modifying this registry entry, but so far it didn't
seem to make any difference at all.

I have a deadline looming and this problem has put me behind in my work by
several days, any ideas or suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.

TIA,


Michael
