His file had headers. My file had headers. The headers fell
apart when I did a comparison. I'm not saying Word DID it.
I'm saying that any application where ya don't know HOW it
happened and it happens in an area that isn't touched is too
temperamental, unstable, and arbitrary for my satisfaction.
I've seen how stable something can be...I'm not asking for
something that cannot be attained.
