Last night we tracked it down to happening only when you press delete
when its the last character in the text frame.. so for the moment, try
to avoid doing that. We hope to discuss this issue tonight

Try sending to scrapbook, then bring it back into the page you want it

If you text was done with linked frames.. then you would only have to
delete the secondary frames, and then recreate them where you want them.
Try that.. it does work and works well..
