Next time I perform any chance to my word doc, and again save it as web page, filtered (basically if I repeat the above process), then all the html code changes that I had performed earlier would obviously be over-written.

So, how do people circumvent this? Seems to be that this should be a pretty common situation.
Every time you use Word (or other non-ebook editor) you are starting over validation wise.

Make the (I would be expecting minor) changes in the EPUB (Sigil or Calibre editor).

The validated EPUB is now the master (and most recent) format.
