Page Fault Saving Bulleted Styles in Word 2.0 Format

Q140314

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Publisher for Windows 95, version 3.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

If you save the text from a publication as a Word 2.0 for Windows or
a Word 6.0 document and some of the text styles include bullets,
you will receive the following error message:

   This program has performed an illegal operation and will be
   shut down.

   If the problem persists, contact the program vendor.

If you click Details, you will see a message similar to:

   MSPUB caused an invalid page fault in module WNWRD232.CNV
   at 0137:00ee9435.

This problem occurs only if bullets are part of a style. If you simply
apply bullets to existing text, you can save successfully.

RESOLUTION
==========

If you have bullets as part of a defined text style and you need to export
the text in your publication, save the publication as a Rich Text Format
(.rtf) file.

MORE INFORMATION
================

You will see a similar symptom if you try to save the text in your
publication as a WordStar file, and your styles contain a numbered list.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Publisher version 3.0 for
Windows 95. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
