WD: Document Number Not Incremented Correctly
ID: Q135073
|
The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Word for Windows 95, versions 7.0, 7.0a
-
Microsoft Word 97 for Windows
SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Word, the document names are not incremented as expected.
Examples:
Case 1: When you start Word, the default document does not appear as
document1. Instead, it is named document2, document3, and so on.
Case 2: When you create a new document in Word, the new document number
is not incremented from the previous document number. For
example, the first document is named document2, the next is
named document4, and so on.
CAUSE
This behavior occurs when both Word Mail and Word are running.
Examples:
Case 1: You started Word Mail and composed a new message before you started
Word.
Case 2: You switched to Word Mail, composed a new message, and then
switched back to Word.
When you use Word Mail to compose a mail message, a session of Word is
activated. Although no document number appears in the Word Mail Compose
Message window, the documents are being numbered. Each new message you
create will increment the document number by one. As you switch between
Word Mail and Word, and as you create new documents, the documents will be
numbered sequentially between both sessions of Word. This behavior is by
design.
