    - Word Crashes Evertime I Close It plus problem opening word files I have Office 2007 on Vista Ultimate and Word crashes evertime I close it, and then restarts Word. Office Diagnostics give me no errors. I also cannot open Word files by clicking on their icon, or by clicking on them as an attachment in Office. I have to open Word and select File -> Open which is the only way I can open any Word file. This is more recent than the above mentioned crashing error. The only thing I have done recently is install AVAST antivirus software. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120489

    - Word fades to gray, freezes I'm suddenly having a problem that when I'm in the middle of working on a Word document, the screen quickly fades to gray and I cannot re-enter the document without closing word (which then gives me the message that Word is Not Responding), then starting over. Why is this happening? The two documents are ones that were sent to me by a colleague yesterday for editing. Is there a chance there's something wrong with her documents? Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120480

    - Strange Autosave File I'm a writer and for years I've used the 12Ghosts Backup to back up my autosave *.asd files on an external hard drive. With XP and Word 97, I never had a problem. However, when I upgraded to Vista and to Word 2002 (from a new Works Suite 2006), the autosave files changed from .asd to "08 File (.08)" (that's the exact "name" found in their properties). These 08 files are correctly saved by my 12 Ghosts, but can only be opened by Wordpad. Then they show up as numbers and stuff that might not be of any use to me if I ever needed them. (Or would they? Would I be able to get back the word document from them? I don't know. ) In my Word 2002 Options -- Save Tab, I have selected (in order) "allow fast saves" / "allow background saves" / save autorecover every 1 minute / and "Save word files as Word document *.doc (and I've tried some of the other options here with no luck). I tried changing the opening program from wordpad to winword.exe, but it won't register at all (won't be recognized for opening the file). (Incidentally, I tried installing my Word 2002 as a separate program in "Program Files" but it wound up inside "Office 10". (But I don't suppose that has anything to do with it.) I've had this problem for a long time, during which I've updated my Word 2002 and reinstalled it several times without any effect. So, after this long introduction, my first question is: "What should I do to change the autorecovery files from 08 File (.08) type to either *.asd or *.doc, so I can get back to the happy place I was at with XP and Word 97? Thanks in advance for any suggestions and help. -- Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120479

    - Word 2000 Documents Crash in Word 2003 Good Morning, In the process of exploring Word 2003, we have discovered that many of the original documents created in Word 2000 crash in Word 2003 when being saved, opened, and /or generally edited. I have opened a ticket with Microsoft and have yet to receive a resolution. The issue is repeatable on command so should be solvable. We have narrowed the issue down to a corruption in the styles of the original documents. However, using the Open and Repair feature does not solve the issue, BUT the "recovery" process of Word 2003 fixes each document but takes forever to execute. The same documents may be opened in Word 2000 with no problem. But, when opened in Word 2003, the issue occurs immediately. Would anyone be able to shed some light on this topic? You will then be my hero for today. Many thanks in advance for your responses. ~Mae Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120477

    - Word 2003 closes on pressing enter When I type in Word 2003, as soon as I hit enter, Word closes. In Outlook it means I can send a mail, as long as I don't hit enter, or the mail (because of the Word-editir mode I assume) closes as well. At one point I reinstalled the new machine, gave the user a new profile, a new network account even, did repairs etc. I'm at a loss. Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120471

    - Word XP (2002) only opens in safe mode Every time I start word it says it encountered an error and needs to close. This happens if I try to open word by itself or if I double click a word document. It also prompts to recover my work and restart word (even if I didn't open word by double clicking a document). If I do that it opens in safe word just fine. This computer is only a couple months old (built myself, clean install of win xp and office xp). I have tried repair installing office completely, I have also uninstalled word and reinstalled word but the problem still exists. This just started started happening today and nothing has been installed recently. Other programs that are installed, are basic utilities like winrar and winzip. Adobe Reader that kind of stuff.

    - Word 2003 won't open I have a user who began experiencing errors recently when he would try to open a Word document, or Word itself. There doesn't seem to be any obvious reason which caused this, such as new software installation or driver changes. The symptom are as follows: When he tries to open a document, he gets the following error: Word has encountered a problem and needs to close. This message has the Send Error Report/ Don't Send buttons. After choosing one of these, the following message appears: Word failed to start corrrectly last time. Starting Word in Safe Mode..... Do you want to Start Word in Safe Mode? If you choose No, then you go through the cycle again. The only way out is to choose Yes and open Word in Safe Mode, which works, and he is able to view documents.

    - Word 2003 deletes doc file from flash drive entirely when crashing Twice now, my Word 2003, for no discernable reason, has crashed while I was working on a document file opened from a flash drive. Each time it crashed, it actually totally deleted the original file from the flash drive, and couldn't find the "recovered" file anywhere in order to open and re-save it - not even from the specified timed backup location.

    - Error Saving Correct Changes in MS Word 2007 Hi there, I was wondering if there is a solution to this problem I'm having. I've been working on revising my thesis using MS Word 2007, a very large document, on Windows XP, with all service packs and MS Updates installed. I make changes to the thesis on a daily basis, and save the file onto my HDD as well as on my USB external HDD every time I make a change on the document, which is around every two to five minutes when I'm working. I get a file permission error when I try to save the changes manually (by clicking the Save icon or the Save As.. option). Regardless of whether I try to save on the HDD or the USB drive, I get a file permission error every now and then. So far, my tactic has been to wait until the program will allow me to save the changes. I try to save a few times, pause, and try again. But this in itself is frustrating. And then, last night after completing a save after a long wait, the file was incorrectly saved. This morning I found different versions of the file I was trying to save on my HDD (all with the same name, on my HDD and my USB drive), and had to sift through each document to compile them all into a new document. Is that really necessary? I've never had problems like this before. At my office PC, using Office 2003, I can save every 30 seconds to both USB drive and HDD with no problems. I think I would like to be able to manually save my documents again, without worrying whether MS Word got it right. What can I do? I've set the save preferences to save every 5 minutes, I have Norton Antivirus, and my computer is connected to a home network. Hope you can help, I'd like to get to the root of this problem soon, and get back to work. Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120367

    - Sentence would not wrap to next page On two seperate occassions this week, I was typing a document in Word and when I got to the last line, it didn't wrap to next page. Sometimes the curser would disappear and nothing more happened, sometimes the curser moved from the last letter on the page to about 10 lines up. I finally was able to proceed to the next page by inserting a page break after the last word on the first page(Contr-enter). Never had that happen before. Anyone know why it happened and how to avoid it. By the way, I was simply typing a page, no table or anything exotic. Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120350

    - Issue with Normal.dot Hi all, I have a user who keeps receiving the message that there were changes to the normal.dot and does she want to save the changes. To her knowledge, she does not make any changes to the document so she picks "No" most of the time but she picks "Yes" somes. However, the message keeps popping up. Usually after the message goes away, she can't open up any Word docs or save any Word documents and her computer gets more and more difficult to work with. For example, other applications will open in "Read Only" even if she has access to save the documents. A restart will solve the problem temporarliy but then the problems start up again. I have tried to replace the normal.dot but this doesn't make the issue go away. I have also deleted any temp files but still the issue continues. She is using a Windows XP operating system and is using Office 2003. If anyone can shed some light on this, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks! LaurenM Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120342

    - Word Document - 17 MB and Growing Hi Have a weird issue that is cropping up with a sensitive document. We are running Windows XP with SP2, and Office 2003 with SP2. Document in question was created in Word 2003, and currently sits at 31 pages. It is mainly text, and does not have a huge amount of graphics. Because it is a working document however, there have been many revisions, updates, etc made to it. What appears to be happening is that everytime it is saved, it gets bigger...regardless of changes. It finally gets to the point where it can take 20 to 50 seconds, just to open, due to the size on disk. At this point, we have to copy all the date, and place into a new word document. What is interesting is to compare the size. When I performed this procedure today, it dropped from 17MB to 204KB.....so I am at a loss as to why it appears so big, when it really isn't. The formatting on the document also goes weird. For instance, if you bulletpoint a sentence, it will bulletpoint the entire document, even though that was not selected. Any ideas on this one?? I am stumped. Thanks, Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120307

Installed, uninstalled, registry cleaned, installed again... no changes. Problem started about first or second week of June 2008. SSD Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120300

    - help with Table Macro I am new into writing macros and scripts and I need help with a simple procedure. I have a word document that contains a table. The table has several rows and 7 columns. (The number of rows varies, but the columns are always 7) Within this table I need script that will have a certain word or phrase (for example: Available Float, which will always be in column 7). Once the word is found, I need the script to delete the whole row, and go to the next looking for the same ( loop ). I think I know how to do a macro to find the word, I just don't know how to continue to to the rest ( clear contents with the row, select the row and delete the row). Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120299

    - Cannot display requested font, insufficient memory about 3 weeks ago, Word (home and student 2007) began to spit up the error "There is insufficient Memory of disk space. Word cannot display the requested font" and removes all fonts except calibri, and screws up the file somewhat. 1G memory free when using word, 30+G Hdd space free. it has gotten to the point where it is almost impossible to get any work done. it is now doing it every time i open word. I have tried reinstalling, twice. no effect. i have tried removing the pdf creator. no effect. uninstalling adobe reader had no effect. installing the latest adobe has not helped. updating printer drivers didnt fix the problem either. im completely at a loss, and the microsoft support system is refusing to work atm.

    - Error: 1706 (Word, or just in Windows?) (Well, I hope I am now posting in the correct place. I'm not used to doing this live/online, but from a newsreader, so if I'm not winding up where I should be, please feel free to give me a link to the right place!) Hi, A friend of mine asked me to help with a problem she has every time she starts Word. She gets a message that says: "The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available. Insert the Microsft Word 2002 disk and click OK." Then below this, it says, "Use source:" and the default is, "Works Suite Word CD or DVD." Hitting [CANCEL] gets the following message: "Error: 1706: Setup cannot find the required files. Check your connection to the network, or CD-ROM drive. For other potential solutions to this problem, see C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\1033\Setup.hlp." I have checked online sources, as well as my own personal Guru (I'm *her* Guru - she comes to me with stuff *she* can't fix, but when *I* don't know something, I have another friend that *I* consult, who knows more than I do, IYKWIM.), and have come up with no answers that pertain to this particular situation. Since this happens EVERY SINGLE TIME SHE OPENS WORD, it's naturally driving her a little batty, as it would me. Here's how my friend explains what she did that seemed to have triggered this problem: ************************************************************ There is an option in Windows that lets you download East Asian fonts. I did this so I could read Japanese kanji characters. It was apparently successful, but now, every time I try to run Word, I get a notice that I have to put the "Word 2002" disk in. I then hit CANCEL, and the computer says something like, okay, then let me configure Word -- and then it brings up Word and lets me in it. You'd think that having done this once, it wouldn't need to do it again. Oh, no, my friend. It goes through this rigamarole every single time I run Word. Please make it stop. In case it helps, here's what I did to download the fonts. (Basically, it's Start, Control Panel, Regional and Language Options, Add other languages, Install Files for East Asian Languages.) There were two "tips" in the instructions that said: (1) "During the process, you may need to insert the XP CD so the relevant files can be copied across to your computer." (2) "A typical Windows XP CD will have a folder on the disk called "i386." This entire folder can be copied to the hard drive and then can be referenced for anything needing the WinXP Disk. When a program asks you for the CD, select the path on the hard drive where you copied this folder to." ************************************************************ Is there anyone out there who either has had this problem or has something I can try short of uninstalling Word/Works 2002 and getting and installing Office 2007, and preferably not messing with the registry, if at all possible? (I've done this, but only with my Guru on the phone and ONLY on my OWN PC - i.e., if I screw up, it's only MYSELF that suffers, IYKWIM!) Oh, Just In Case, she's running WinXP, Service Pack 2, on a Pentium 4 @ 3GHz, with 1Gig of RAM. Thanks! SueMichele Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120295

    - find new printer button error message in msword 2003 sp3 when I try to use the 'find a new printer' button I get the error message 'directory service not available'. Nothing seems to fix it. No problem in control panel when I go to 'add a new printer' or browse for a printer on this nework, but in Word the button will not work??? Tag: Screensaver Tag: 120292
