Highlighted text missing in Word

Post by bjarvis »

I highlighted text using Writer and saved as a Microsoft Word 6 document. The highlighting is missing when I reopen the document.

Hi,

Wich methode has you used for highlighting?
Do you applied a Manual formatting or applied an user definied Character Style?

Please, edit the initial post in the topic: add the word [Solved] at the beginning of the subject line - if your problem has been solved.

Unless you definitely need Word 6 format, the best .doc format to use is Word 97/2000/XP, also available from the Save As selector.
