I have many MS Word doc's created with Office 2000, i've
now upgraded to Office XP. When i open the doc it crash's
the app.

Do i need to convert all my doc's?

Any idea'?

Many thanks

Rob

No, Word 2000 documents should open seamlessly in Word 2002. There is
something else causing the problem. See

Thanks for the link, unfortunatley nothing there that
helped. What i find now is that when i try and print the
app does not repond.

If i create a new doc and press print it works fine.
There must be some within these Word doc's created in
Office 2000..no?
