Unless that particular build you got has some tweaks for a business environment... I have had difficulties finding information on this particular topic as it relates to Word. For Windows, there is plenty of help on that, like this, for example: http://billjr.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!28CBD6442F406227!774.entry It might help you find the problem?
