Thanks for the message. I downloaded the source code to open office, but it's 500 megs+. I can't seem to find where in the code they actually deal with the MS Word Binary structure. Do you know what classes/parts of code deals with that? I'll definitely look through it.
Thanks.
As for the spec, I did read it and did not find anything about -1 being an accepted value, but all I can find is the '97 spec and nothing on 2000, so I didn't know if it had been changed.

Robert,
not sure how to handle this myself. The spec I am going from doesn't mention
that -1 is a possible value. My suggestion for you is to read the spec and
see if you can come up with a better way to handle this. If that goes
nowhere, go look in the openoffice.org code and see how they handle lists.
