Count me as one is very offended. I agree that it looks like something that a programer did on purpose. It is a known fact that msft recruits programmers from around the world so that may account for the code that was used and why. It should be changed IMO. FWIW I tried it using an office 97 NT version of Word and did not get the same results as I did with Office 2000 which was the same result that you got. The news release referenced Word 3.1 so I can't figure out why the commercial version would be different.
