    - Word 97 Error Message Hello! This error message comes up on one of my customers computers. It is more of a nuisance than anything else. It doesn't appear to cause any great problems with the running of the software, but they would like it solved, and I'm not entirely sure what would be causing it. Run-Time Error '-2147467259 (80004005)': Method 'PrivateProfileString' of object 'System' failed It is Microsoft Word 97 running under Windows 95 (4.0) with 32MB of RAM, and P166. Any assistance that can be rendered would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks Greg Tag: Office XP word Tag: 63719

    - equation editor in word 2002 Hi, I need your help. I am using word 2002, 10.4524.4219 sp2. I encountered a problem in the equation editor. 1. When I type 1e-3, it appears as 1e 3 ( the negative sign is missing and it creates a long blank space). 2. When I wanted 3 x 3, it produce 3 . 3. 3. when I wanted 3 divide by 3 ( with divide sign), it produce 3 | 3. etc. I checked the style setting, I found that symbol font is missing. I can only find MT symbol. Will this be the source of the problem and how do I fix it? In word, I can find both symbol and MT symbol. Tag: Office XP word Tag: 63708

    - Bizarre Word 2002 c&p problem Whenever I copy some text in Word 2002, and paste it into Corel Draw 11, it is immediately recognised as Japanese text and the default Asian font (MS Gothic) is used. If I copy and paste from any other program (including Excel, Publisher, Wordpad, Notepad, Outlook) everything is fine and the standard Western font (Arial) is used. My old version of Word 2000 had no problems either. I don't think the problem lies with Corel, as I have changed nothing in the Corel setup, but Office 2002 was a recent upgrade.

    - Windows Installer Hi, I'm running Windows 2000 professional (sp3) and was infected with the msblast.exe worm. After installing the patch and destroying the virus with antivirus software, I can't open Office 2000 applications. I get the following message: This application must be installed to run. Please run Setup from the location where you originally installed the application. The only option is to press "O.K." When I try to reinstall Office 2000, I get the following error message: This patch package could not be opened. Verify that the patch package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer patch package. Again, the only option is to press "O.K." I've also tried uninstalling the Office Suite, but I get the same error message: "This patch package could not be opened..." Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, J. P.S. I've rebooted the computer several times already. Tag: Office XP word Tag: 63676

    - Can't Save! Please Help Hi- I'm running MS Word 2000 in Windows 98. I received an error message reading "Saving the AutoRecovery file is postponed for [document name]," I clicked 'OK,' and since then I am unable to save changes to documents in MS Word. When I try to save, nothing happens. When I try to close the document, the program asks me if I would like to save changes, but clicking 'yes' simply leaves the document open without saving. Clicking 'no' closes the document without saving, of course. At one point I was able to create a new document and save it once, but was still unable to save it again after making changes. Now for some reason I can't even save or name a new document. Also, for a long time I have received an error message when opening files reading "Microsoft Visual Basic - An error occurred while loading 'ThisDocument'. Do you want to continue loating the project?" Other than having to click 'no' it never seemed to be a problem. Any ideas? I have an important project today and need to be able to save documents!

    - Word will not start Hello, Earlier today, I opened a document in Word, just as I have done countless times in the past. I then attempted to open a file which was probably a text file, but not a WORD file. The WORD "intro" came up, but wouldn't go beyond that. The cursor kept "flashing" with the icon I chose for it to be while the computer is thinking. When I tried to CNTRL-ALT-DLT, I received a white screen telling me that I don't have enough resources to run the file. I could only exit by a hard-reset. If I try to start WORDor and WORD document, I keep getting the white screen asking me if I wish to quit the prsent application or continue. However, I lose functionality of the computer beyond this point. I downloaded the new virus definitions today, and it didn't find any. PLEASE HELP. I reinstalled WORD and the same thing occurs.

    - Errors in Word when trying to save a document Hello. I am hoping that someone out there will be able to help me. Lately when I've been using Word I will click ctrl-s to save (to my hard drive, not a disk) and the following message appears: "There is an unreasonable disk error on file ~WRL2129. The disk you're working on has a media problem that prevents Word from using it. Try the following: try formatting another disk; or save the document to a disk." The problem is I am not using a disk in the first place, plus it loses my document and I don't know how to recover. Since I'm in the process of writing my thesis I've taken to emailing myself the documents, so thus far I haven't lost complete files, but it is still an enormous pain in the butt. Has anyone come across this or know how to fix it? Why does this happen? I am running Office XP (Word) on a laptop. Thanks. Tag: Office XP word Tag: 63527
