WD: File Save Does Not Keep Levels Hidden in Outline View

• Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0a-CD, 2.0b, 2.0c, 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c
• Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0
• Microsoft Word for the Macintosh, versions 4.0, 5.0, 5.1, 6.0, 6.0.1

SYMPTOMS

When you save a document from outline view with hidden (collapsed) levels, close it, and then reopen it, all hidden levels are shown again.

CAUSE

Word does not save information on viewing levels (used in outline view). Therefore, when you reopen a document, all levels appear when you view the document in outline view.

STATUS

This behavior is by design for the versions of Word listed at the beginning of this article.
