Lost formatting and size from 2.6KB to 1.2MB

We moved from Word 2000 to 2003. A document with screen captures (SnagIt) was
orginally created with 2000, opened and saved with 2003 and then moved to
another writer who had 2000.

We have lost all outline formatting and the file size is growing with each
save. I tried to repair the file with no luck.

Help!
 
Hi TallGirl,

I can't explain the formatting problem, but the continual increase in file size is probably due to one of your users having the
'allow fast saves' option checked under Tools|Options|Save. Using this option is also a potential source of document corruption,
which might explain the formatting problems.

Cheers
