WINDOWS

= SYMPTOMS =

Word for Windows does not prompt you to save changes to a document when you close the document after you run the spelling checker if you change spelling only in the footnote.

= CAUSE =

This happens because Word does not change the document status to “dirty” (that is, flag the file as changed) if the only change you make is to the footnote during a spelling check operation.

= STATUS =

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

= WORKAROUND =

You must save the file before you close it to keep these changes.
