Disappearing text
I am using Office 365 on a Windows 11 PC. I type a lot of text for use in books and use a lot of Page Breaks. I have encountered a problem where I will be typing text and suddenly the text that I have typed will disappear back to the previous page break. Has anyone had a similar problem?
No, I have not experience the issue. However instead of using manual page breaks, format the first paragraph that is to appear on a new page so that it has a page break before it.
The best way to do that is to set up a Style with that attribute that is set to be followed by a Style that does not have that paragraph attribute.
Thank you for the suggestion however that has nothing to do with the text disappearing. It appears to be triggered by what I type although I have yet to identify a pattern.
But, do you still experience the issue if you cause the page breaks by using the method that I suggested.
John1540 I've got the same issue. I use the web version of word and excel but I can't seem to get word to function at all because everything I type just disappears again. It's like each time it autosaves it 'forgets' what I've typed and jumps back to latest save.
I'd really like to know if anyone has a solution to this?
- This may seem to be the same, but it is not. I suggest posting a separate question. Word for the Web / online is truly a different program than the desktop applications
