Bookmark Not Retained When Inserted into Another Document

 * }

Q132204

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c

-

SYMPTOMS
When you insert text that includes a bookmark into another document that contains a bookmark with the same name, the bookmark in the target document is preserved while the bookmark from the source document is removed. This functionality is different from Word version 2.0, where the bookmark in the target document is replaced by the bookmark in the source document.

STATUS
We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

RESOLUTION
To avoid losing bookmarks, first rename the bookmarks in one of the documents.
