It's actually worse - ALL fields now do not display correctly. Instead of showing a chapter number, it shows "Chapter". Instead of showing a page number it shows "Page numbers", and so forth. Fortunately, I just thought of doing a page preview to see what would print and that forced all the fields to display correctly in the preview but only briely in the document right before the preview displays. Once I close the preview the fields again do not display correctly. What would cause this?
