Steven, If you're copying and pasting, you're also pasting Word control characters in, which isn't a great thing to do and may be at the root of your problem. A couple possible new workflows, and by extension, a way to clean things up: Try saving as RTF in Word, and opening that file in FM so it runs through the FM import filter. From FM, SaveAs MIF, to clean up hidden characters. Open the MIF file and copy and paste from that into your FM parent file, or just import FM formats form your template file and go forward. (the SaveAs MIF would be the way to clean up your existing file(s) too.
