GP Fault Updating INCLUDETEXT Field That References Table Cell

ID: Q111693

6.00 WINDOWS kbusage

The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Word for Windows, version 6.0

SYMPTOMS

If you update an INCLUDETEXT field that references a bookmarked table cell in another document, a general protection (GP) fault occurs. This error does not occur if the bookmark references an element other than a table cell.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows. This problem was corrected in versions 6.0a and later of Word for Windows.

WORKAROUND

In Word 6.0, use a LINK field instead of the INCLUDETEXT field (this is unnecessary once you install Word 6.0a).

To obtain Word 6.0c, call the Microsoft Order Desk at (800) 360-7561 and request the Word 6.0c update. If you are outside the United States, contact your local subsidiary. To locate your subsidiary, see the Microsoft World Wide Offices Web site at:
