Sorry for my late reply - I was strongly focused on the private part of my life. In Word one can switch between "fast saving" and the normal way (I believe fast save is activated by default, but that may have changed with the newer versions). If fast saving is off, Word creates a nice structured file when the document is saved. If fast saving is on, Word appends new data and changed data to the file (simply speaking). So in fast saved files information is distributed all over the file and the text and the formatting information is stored in "arbitrary" order. The setting is in the "Save"(?)-tab in the options window of Word (I don't know how it looks like after Word2000). best wishes, Rainer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mailing List: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail2.html#poi The Apache Jakarta Poi Project: http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/
