= SUMMARY =

A pagination problem may occur in Microsoft Word if a page contains five or more two-column nonbreaking sections in which Keep With Next Paragraph formatting has been applied. Under such conditions, Word will paginate the first section correctly, distributing the text into two columns; however, the text in the remaining sections will fill only the first column.

To correct this problem, do the following:


 * 1) Select the text in the sections on the affected page.
 * 2) From the Format menu, choose Paragraph.
 * 3) Deselect Keep With Next Paragraph (make sure the check box is empty).

These steps decrease paragraph formatting on the page.

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
