I have been using Word 5.1a for about a week, and have noticed one feature
that broke, though it had worked in Word 5.0.  I have an article stored in
two files which I set up as a file sequence, with the page numbers of the
second file continuing in sequence from the last page of the first file. 
Word 5.0 did this correctly both in printing and in table-of-contents
generation.  After I changed to 5.1a, table-of-contents entries for the
second file started over at page 1.  I could only get what I wanted by
manually specifying the starting page of the second file.  I did not check
whether the same error occurs when printing.
