Hey,

I updated my Office XP to Office 2003. After installing,
I was unable to open any of my existing Word documents on
the computer. It says, "The file ______ is not
available." Any ideas? if so, please email me at
robjbvh@hotmail.com. Thanks

This is sometimes the result of a conflict with the Norton Office Plug-in,
which can be disabled without compromising your virus protection provided
you leave Auto-Protect enabled.
