    Workpaper Reference Roll Forward Issues in DOC Files
    If your Word document is in
    DOC
    format (97-2003) and you insert a workpaper reference using the Engagement Manager toolbar, references won't roll forward correctly.
    Follow these steps to work around this issue.
    1. Open up the original source engagement before the roll forward.
    2. Save a copy or export the document to your local computer. Then, select
      Save As
      to save it as a
      DOCX
      file.
    3. Delete the
      DOC
      word document from your engagement and insert the
      DOCX
      file in its place.
    4. Roll forward the engagement again to the new year.
