Framed Objects Deleted After Rejecting Revisions

ID: Q112454

The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 6.0, 6.0a

SYMPTOMS

When you reject the revisions in a document that contains a framed object, Word for Windows may delete the framed object instead of restoring it to the original state.

This happens regardless of whether the framed object is an OLE object or not.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word versions 6.0 and 6.0a for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND

There is no workaround, so you must not use the Reject All button in the Tools Revisions dialog box or the Reject button in the Review Revisions dialog box when your document contains a framed object. If you accidentally use these features, immediately choose the Undo button on the Standard toolbar to reverse the action.
