SYMPTOMS
When you open an Rich Text Format (RTF) file in the Microsoft Works 2000 Word Processor, text may be missing from the header or the footer of the document.



CAUSE
This behavior can occur because there is a limit to the amount of text that the Works 2000 Word Processor can display in the header or footer of a document. This limit depends on the following factors:


 * Font
 * Font size
 * Font style
 * Paragraph formatting



RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, change the paragraph formatting or the font characteristics of the text in the header or the footer of the document:


 * 1) Start the Works 2000 Word Processor.
 * 2) On the File menu, click Open.
 * 3) Click Rich Text Format (*.rtf) in the Files of type box.
 * 4) Click the document that you want to open, and then click Open.
 * 5) On the View menu, click Header and Footer.
 * 6) Select the text in the header or footer, and then click the appropriate commands on the Format menu to change the paragraph formatting or the font characteristics of the selected text.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Works 2000.



MORE INFORMATION
When you open the same file in Microsoft Word 2000, Word 2000 displays more text in the header or footer of the document than is displayed by the Works 2000 Word Processor.
