One doubt-u said about copy/pasting from Word to MW. Are using any
WYSWYG editor in MW? Otherwise I guess formattign will be lost when u
copy/paste to MW. Are you aware of the fact that there's a macro
avaialbe for MS Word to convert word documents to wiki format, os that
in one click you can get the formatted document in your wiki. Also, in
OpenOffice, you can export the document to wiki format.

Hi everybody,

has anybody noticed crashes of MS Word when cut&pasting from a MediaWiki
page (not the wikitext, the actual page display)?

I've observed this behavior here at work and short of recommending to
switch to OpenOffice (something that won't go down with the MS addicted
IT dpt), I'm not quite sure what else to say.

=?
