XL97: Word Object Displayed Differently in Excel 97 (174218)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Excel 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q174218 SYMPTOMS
When you open a Microsoft Excel workbook that contains a Microsoft Word
Document object, the contents of the Word object may be spaced differently
than in earlier versions of Excel. When you print the worksheet, the
contents of the Word object may be printed differently than in earlier
versions of Excel. In particular, the characters may be spaced farther
apart.
CAUSE
This problem may occur because Excel 97 uses a different process for
drawing objects. This process may cause objects that are created in the
earlier versions of Excel to be resized.
RESOLUTION
To correct this problem, obtain Microsoft Excel 97 Service Release 2
(SR-2).
For additional information about SR-2, please see the following article
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Excel 97 for
Windows. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Office 97 Service Release
2 (SR-2).
