Thanks for your feedback:
1. Will try to get the message to Microsoft or to a Word MVP...
2. I already have that macro but considering that we have created 100's of
thousands of documents containing OLE_LINKSx bookmarks it is not really
feasible to use it on such a large scale. Also user education for such an
issue is a nightmare. I figure, no one has really noticed until now and it
does not break the documents, therefore I will do nothing right now until we
have a solution and only send the macro to those users who request it.
P.S. When I click on your link, for the macro, the webpage cannot be found.
Best Regards,
tito
