STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows 95 version 7.0. This problem was corrected in Word version 7.0a for Windows 95.

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem, use one of the following methods:

Method 1. Create the cover letter using the Letter Wizard. When you

          select Prewritten Business Letter, the Letter Wizard lists the
          resume cover letter.

          follow these steps:

          1. Open the Resume Wizard.

          2. On the Tools menu, click Macro.

          3. Select the StartWizard macro, and then click the Edit button.

          4. On the Edit menu, click Find.

          5. In the Find What box, type the following text:

                   rem chk

          6. Press the Find Next button, and then click the Cancel button.
             Note that "Rem chk" (without the quotation marks) is selected.

          7. Move the insertion point before the selected text, and then
             type the following line of WordBasic code:

                If Right$(TPath$,1)<>"\" Then TPath$=TPath$+"\"

          8. Press ENTER, and then press the TAB key on the keyboard three
             times.

          9. Save and close the macro, and then save and close the Resume
             Wizard.
