    - Word 2000 A little while ago, my Word 2000 started to act up. - it claims it cannot open files of a certain format, but when I click to continue, it opens these files fine - when I click on certain buttons, it says it needs to install that particular function, and prepares to install from my CD, but when I click "Cancel", it works. - it crashes now and then in the middle of my working in a file. - every time I close Word normally, it says "Changes have been made that affect the global template, Normal dot [which I have deleted many times/Hans L].l Do you want to save those changes." I click "No', and Word continues to close. I uninstalled and reinstalled Word 2000 from my Office 200 disk, an for a while, everythig was okay. Then, the same thing started again. I cannot find this particular situatuion on the MS website. Can you suggest anythng to try? Hans L -- Tag: Sentences condense in Word 2003 Tag: 101368

    - Word 2003 (student version) does not open endnote Hi everyone. I just bought a new computer, and office 2003 student version. I installed Endnote. In my old computer Endnote would appear in world under tools; however it does not happen with my new one. I manage to make it appearing by adding a world template from the endnote files. However each time I'm trying to add a citation I get the following error message: The macro cannot be found or has been disabled because of your macro security setting. I pressed the help button contained in the error message, following the advice but nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any idea about what to do? I would really appreciate any suggestions!

    - why Word don't record the changes I applied to tool bars ? In my Office 2003, when I apply some changes to Word toolbars, this change, leaving Word, is not recorded, so that when I re-open Word, I do not find my previous toolbar customization. Note that Normal.dot does not create at all and I did not find this file in any directory of my PC, neither before nor after Word runnig.

    - A ghost file in document recovery that won't go away! Whenever I open WORD(2002) it shows in the available files of the document recovery panel a file named "Grondverzakking.doc [recovered]" ... it then leaves me the options to eather save OR open OR delete Whatever I chose it tells me that Word can not Open, nor delete the file because it can not "read from the source file". (This is normal since that file does not exist any more) If I ignore it, it pesters me when closing the curent file to delete OR save the so called "recovered file" . Whatever i do leads to the same result and on top of it WORD proposes to open in safe mode the next time i launch it.

    - Anti virus conflict with MS Word We have Word 2002 with Norton antivirus and firewall active. Opening MS Word is very slow 75 to 90 seconds. Closing takes about the same time. Once the Word screen comes up an hour glass appears on the screen for about 60 seconds. Also during the slow start up the message "Requesting virus scan" appears at the bottom of the screen. This seems to be the real hold up. Once MS Word is up, loading a file is reasonably quick but the "Requesting virus scan" appears. It seems that a virus scan of the entire MS Word execute is being run on every start up. Turning off Norton makes no difference. Uninstalling and reinstalling Word has not helped. Any advice will be appreciated. Bob Tag: Sentences condense in Word 2003 Tag: 101323

    - Scrolling in document with numerous sections does "repeat" section Dear All, I am using Office 2003 on WinXP with latest patches and service packs. (German versions of OS and Office) When writing a document and working with sections, which is really necessary sometimes, I have to problem that scrolling does not work at some time. When scrolling up (or down, depends on the "mood" of Word) some sections will always repeat and I cannot scroll down to the next / up to the previous section. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you how many sections, pictures, text, whatever is required to let Word have this behaviour. But once it start to happen, it will always happen, at random sections. Is there any patch, registry tweak or whatever to solve this annoying bug? I searched at google and in the news boards but I feel that I am the only one experience this problem, and of course all people that open such "infected" document after they received from me. Someone told that you must not include pictures of any other format than WMF, but unfortunately this behavior occurs even there are no pictures in the document at all (at least non that I would know of).

    - E-Mail error using Word. Can anybody please help with the following problem. I am using Microsoft Office 2003 and I have it set up to use Word for writing e-mails. Every time I try to create a new e-mail by using either word itself or open new Office document and then pressing the E-Mail envelope I get the following error message. "You cannot close Microsoft Office word because a dialogue box is open. Click OK, switch to word, and then close the dialogue box." When you then press OK you get the following error message and the blank e-mail page will still not open. "Word could not load the E-Mail envelope. This could be caused by a network connection problem or a problem with your office installation." I have tried completely uninstalling office and reinstalling it but it has made no difference. I still get the same error message every time. I am able to open the blank e-mail form using Word providing I open Microsoft Outlook first and use the link within outlook. This problem is driving me absolutely nuts and I will be eternally grateful to anybody who can help me solve it. Any ideas or suggestions will be gratefully received.

    - Word 2003 - Random lockups I work in a library where we have a pool of around 20 internet computers for public use. We recently completely upgraded these machines to brand new 3 ghz boxes running Windows XP (SP2) about a month ago. In that upgrade we also decided to make the jump from Office 2000 to 2003. All has been fine, except occasionally a patron will be working in Word only to have the app lock up and go "not responding". Unlike some other posters who've had short intermittent lockups, Word never comes back from these freezes and we always have to end task, which of course results in the patron losing their work. We haven't been able to trace it to a particular PC and obviously we can't really tell what the patrons are doing when Word locks up. As a stopgap we implemented an every-2-minute autosave on all the machines with Word, but we're pretty frustrated with this. Has anyone seen this type of behavior from Word 2003 before?

    - Wrong size of WMF graphics in Word 2003 Hello I have problem importing graphics in the WMF (Windows Metafile) format into Word 2003. The file can be imported into the document from the file, but the image shown is small, about a quarter of the size it should have. The image object has the expected size (seen by selecting the image), but the image is shown is small. This applies to Word 2003 SP1 running on Windows XP. Showing the image by double clicking on it yields the expected image with the expected size. The problem is the same if a document from Word 2000 is opened: The image is too small, even though it looked right in Word 2000. Can anybody help me on this?

    - Hourglass every few seconds in Word 2003 When I am working in Word 2003 (and typing in Outlook, which is set to use Word as the text editor), the cursor is replaced by the hourglass (busy) every 7-8 seconds. When the hourglass appears, typing is interrupted until the hourglass disappears (approx 1 sec.). I have made sure that spelling and grammar checking are not set to "check as you type" and the Auto-save interval is set to 5 minutes. I've run numerous Anti-virus and spyware scans. I have reinstalled Office more than once. Word was working fine for many months without this problem and it seems to have started suddenly. I am not aware of any specific change to my computer such as installing a program that exactly corresponds to when this first started.

Occasionally, when I am ready to print a document, it condenses the majority
of the words/sentences/paragraphs to nearly a single character. It seems to
only happen to older/archived files. Is there a fix, or when it does happen,
is there a way to undo it - I have to close the file (losing any information
I changed) and start over.

If you save the file to another name before closing it, you won't
lose any of your changes, and you'll retain the original version
in case you don't want to keep your changes. As for the
condensing issue, see Office MVP Bob Buckland's reply to a
similar question at
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.word.docmanagement/browse_frm/thread/f73fa986777fe54a/84939ff1ab3312dc
