CE, The is NO commercial word processor that is going to convert any document from another other company with 100% accuracy.
An example of this is vendor A uses a 8 character name for a paragraph style and that document is saved as a DOC/RTF/PDF file. You open your word processor and then open the saved document. Your word processor attempts to convert the document to its own format. In the process it discovers an odd/unknown style name; so, it creates a new style that allows the data to be imported EXACTLY as it is defined. It is your responsibility to make any necessary corrections, not the Word Processor. Your issue with renumbering, IS NOT an MSWord issue, it is a difference in how that data is recorded by Legacy. It is not an issue with Legacy, it is doing what it was designed to do. Whatever word processor you are going to use: Learn how the processor uses style sheets. Learn how to modify the style sheets. Learn how to make changes to suite your style. Learn how to redefine a paragraph, such as keeping two paragraphs together. If you do not know how to work with Style sheets, you are not really using the word processor and you will always have the same formatting issues. Your issue with numbers changing is cause because you do not understand the style sheet and its strengths. Repositioning or moving an image can cause a renumbering; However, if you have properly defined your style, it becomes an automatic process. Learn the Find/Replace function in MSWord. It works on a lot of things other than words or characters. My parting Comment. You appear to be constantly running Legacy reports and then importing them into MSWord. I suggest that instead of replacing your MSWord document, cut and paste ONLY those portions that have been changed. Pete
