For those of you interested in bugs in Word 3.01 & 3.02 relating to the Fractional Widths feature, here's my favorite: Anytime you print a document containing graphics while the Fractional Widths feature is turned on the frame of the graphic stays where it should on the page, but the graphic itself moves half the page width to the right within that frame. I can't tell everyone how much fun I've had with this bug... let's see I have to print this page with Frac Widths, then this page without, then the next two with, and the last one without, etc. Of course, since the Frac Widths mode uses more accurate representations of character widths than does the conventional mode, this does have the effect of changing the pagination, which comes as no surprise, but it means that working around the bug is very difficult. A last quibble: there is no way (that I've come across) to indicate to Word that you want to use Frac Widths without first doing a print, nor can you move back to the conventional mode without doing another print since the only place the control is ever presented is in the print dialog. Anyway, that's my current favorite MS Word bug. ----Chris
