This with word XP [= word 2002 I think]. I'm running, again, into a
longstanding [I think] problem with Word and I was wondering if there are
any fixes/workarounds/patches for it [i doubt there are patches, because
my copy of word is fully patched]:
1) Doing section numbering in a footer, I'm trying to get "Page X of YY"
to work, but all I get is "x of x" [that is, page 1 is "page 1 of 1",
page 2 gets "page 2 of 2", etc].
2) I'm getting a garbage character at the end of the date [again, in the
footer]. I have something like "last update date" [basically the date
the file was last saved] in the footer, and what prints is something that
looks like a "1" overprinted on the last digit of the year [and so when I
just printed it tonight, it said "17 May 200{6/1}" those last
superimposed [and I think [but I'm not sure] it is a '1' -- it is
*something* superimposed there]. I can't imagine where that's coming
from...
I tried googling but "word bug" or "section page numbering bug" or the
like, but I couldn't find much of anything useful.
