Style Area Width Setting Not Retained

ID: Q136456

The information in this article applies to:

SYMPTOMS

The Style Area Width is not retained when you reopen a document and switch to normal view. This behavior occurs when you save and close the document from page layout view. In contrast, if you save and close the document from normal view, the Style Area Width is preserved. This behavior in 32-bit Word is different from the 16-bit versions of Word for Windows.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word for Windows NT, version 6.0, and Word for Windows 95, version 7.0. Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

RESOLUTION

Save and close the document while you are in Normal view.
