You're not the only one with this complaint.  In "Real-World
Answers (BYTE Jan. '88, Pg 205) Ezra Shapiro goes on for 2 
paragraphs about the same problem with Word 3.01.  His solution: 
(after trying Micorsoft Works, FileMaker Plus, Double Helix & 
Omnis 3 Plus) was to use Reflex Plus.  You may not have an answer 
to your problem, but at least you have company.
