not my day =8-} after sidestepping the page-size question by creative copy/paste, I was finally able to get started on what I'd earlier identified as the first task of the day. More bafflement, more behaviour I've never seen before …
I have a style for a cover page that I normally adjust depending on the length of the content (yes, these pages have been Designed) after paste special to get the required text in. To my amazement, this familiar manipulation has this morning somehow contrived to apply word-wrap on a single line – in other words, if I type till the end of the line and carry on typing, FM thoughtfully hyphenates the last word and whisks the cursor back to the start of the line; no line-feed.
Sympathetic comments, diagnostics and corrective advice welcome.
