mapping table mystery--or is it misery?

[Karen Robbins]

Thank you, Urszula, I hadn't thought to check there. The other editor 
who works on these files frequently leaves an empty paragraph tag at 
end of flow.

Since these files are fairly stable and undergo only minor edits each 
time through, content should not be coming from Word directly; but 
there's no telling what happens to source/working files before they 
find their way into the master. :-)

Thanks,
Karen
