Problem

Symptoms: When the customer redefines a block, the last character never gets blocked. For example, if you type a line of text, turn block on and press Home, Left Arrow, all the text gets blocked. Press F6 (Bold) and all the text becomes bolded. But if you turn block on again and press Ctrl-Home twice to redefine the block, the last character does not get blocked. Solutions: The Go To, Go To (Ctrl-Home, Ctrl-Home) function works correctly if you initially block the text from left to right. WP counts how many character positions are included in the initial block. When the block is redefined, the "count" from the initial block may not be exactly the number of character positions needed to perform a correct block. The discrepancy could occur if the text is surrounded by attribute codes. When the block is redefined, the counting will include the attribute codes.
