Library Autosort’s explanation of “case:” set to Yes is incorrect. Word will sort placing “a” between “A” and “B”, it does not separate uppercase from lowercase.

Page 51:

Library Link Spreadsheet Command Fields “area:” (second paragraph), the size limit of a paragraph is 32K, not 30K, so the spreadsheet imported cannot be larger than 32K.

Word cannot write to the disk because the disk space is filled, the disk is write protected, or the disk has reached the limit of the number of files that can be stored on the disk.

The error message “The input file is not a valid DCA/RTF File” should use DCA/RFT instead.
