XPfails – luggable – Microsoft WORD kludges my doc

I was doing the alumni ezine. As I was finishing the index, poof! WORD decided I needed a new page placed along side the first page. In effect, it folded my doc as if it was a two column newspaper.

I fired up Open Office and could see some of the problems.

I wriggled around like a dead fish.

Finally I had the idea of saving it as an RTF. That didn’t clear the problem but it put me on the track of a solution.

I saved it as WORD60 format. Then, when I reopened it I could delete the break.

Argh.

Very very ugly.
