grouped items do not print

[Guest]

I wrote a word document (originally 6.0) with lots of photos, insets and text
boxes.
When moving to word 2000 the layout was messed up. So I grouped
those insets and textboxes and pictures. Now the insets that are grouped do
not print. When I ungroup them they print but their placement is
uncontrollable.

Is this a bug???

More likely a problem with converting the file format; the internal structures
are probably a bit "shaky". Best would be to recreate the document, using a new
document generated from a Word 2000 Normal.dot template (not from a Normal.dot
migrated from Word 6.0).
