When I click the link, the Internet page displays, but with weird text and
symbols appearing in some places. When I click "Refresh," the page looks
normal.

Is there any way to flow text into a document so that no matter where page 2

If I apply formatting to a selection in a document, the formatting applies to
the entire document.  If I undo, the selection will retain the formatting and
the remainder of the document will return to the original formatting.

I prefer to see my Word 2003 docs in Print Layout view ONLY.  However,
various things keep changing the view to the Reading Layout which is just
awful because the page formatting and numbering is almost never correct.
What keeps causing this view to appear and how do I abolish it ...

Any changes I make on any toolbar, or add a toolbar or shifting a
