    - Program Error: Winword.exe has generated errors...?? Thanks for any help in advance, I had Office 2000 Professional installed on my PC, which is using Windows 2000 Professional, and it was working fine. I wanted to updated my SQL Server from 7 to 2000, but when I did so, I received the following error message when attemtping to save changes in a Word doc: Program Error Winword.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being created. So I uninstalled both Office 2000 Pro & SQL Server 2000, and reinstalled them both. But I'm still getting that error message. I even tried uninstallin SQL Server 2000, and reinstalling SQL Server 7, but the same thing happened. Can anyone help me to figure out what's going on? I'm confused, and I don't know how to solve this. Thanks. KWilliams Tag: MS Word immediately closes with no intervention Tag: 61711

    - "Cannot Create Work File" Error (Q302629) using TSE on W2K Periodically, users running Word2000 via a W2K terminal server (and Citrix Metaframe), will get hit with the errors detailed in the Knowledge Base article Q302629 just after opening an existing document. I've worked through methods 2 & 3 of fixing the problem to no avail. I haven't looked at the data subkey fix (in method 1) cause I've not been successful in finding the registry keys for the affected users. Has anyone beat their head up against this problem before and can recommend any course of action? Thanks Tag: MS Word immediately closes with no intervention Tag: 61710

    - word freezes When I try to print an open word document, the window blinks (active/inactive) as though I had tried to open a document already open. I find the application has frozen when this happens. However it doesn't happen consistently, seemingly less (maybe none)when I open the application first and then use the Open command in the File menu.

    - Error opening Word and Excel (GDI.EXE) Whenever I try to open Word, I got a memory page fault. It says that GDI.EXE caused a fault on XXXXXXXX memory address.

    - mail merge attachment error I'm sending out 400 e-mails with a mail merged document attached. The recipients will then complete the missing fields and e-mail it back. The problem is some people are getting errors when they try to open the word doc. They get a screen error message saying: _____ is a mail merge main document. Word cannot open its data source, __________.txt. Click for: Find Data Source or Options. If they choose Find Data Source, nothing happens. If they click Options, they get a screen message that says: If the mail merge source, ________, no longer exists, Choose Remove Data/Header Source or choose Remove All Merge Info. Then there are those two boxes to select. Either option gets the document to load. We are using Word 97. The recipients are using any number of versions of Word. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    - Limit on number of word graphic objects? I have a coworker who has always used Word's own drawing features to draw diagrams in Word. We recently moved to Office XP (his machine's OS is NT 4) and he generally finds things do not work as they used to. However he now has a specific problem with a particular document which probably contains hundreds of textbox graphic objects, most with a dozen characters of text in them. When he tried to add just one more text box, Word hung. It turns out this document has more text boxes in it than he has ever drawn before. We discovered that if we delete 3 of the text boxes, it will let us add 3 new ones, but one more and Word will hang again - then we have to kill it with the task manager. So - is there a limit on the number of a) Word - drawn text boxes b) characters in Word-drawn text boxes c) Word- drawn graphic objects that Word XP can put into a single document ? Are there any workarounds ? I have recommended moving all the drawing to Powerpoint, since there have been other issues about the text in the text boxes gaining heading styles which would never happen with graphic objects pasted in from another application. However time does not permit moving to another application for this document. . Tag: MS Word immediately closes with no intervention Tag: 61682

    - Using OLE automation get error when merging excel data via DDE I have a Visual Fox Pro Application that uses OLE automation to pull up a WORD document, merges in excel data via DDE to the printer and closes word. It works a majority of the time. But sometimes (its intermitant but usually after multiple merges), the merge will take place but crash when word closes generating an error in the VFP application which crashes. I have tried everything I can think of, including recreating the document, changinging the method from DDE to 'translation' and ODBC. Nothing I tried works.

    - Bug in Word 2002 (SP 2) using Acrobat 5.05 Using the Acrobat Distiller printer, there's a bug that seems to occur only with Microsoft Word 2002 (SP 2). Problem occurs when creating a 2-UP PDF file, i.e., 2 pages per sheet within the PDF file itself. When choosing 2-UP in the Print dialog, the picture changes to show 2-UP, but the PDF file is created with only 1-UP. For example, using a .txt file, I am able to create a 2-UP PDF file with Notepad and Wordpad, but not with Word. No problem with Excel .xls file or .htm file in IE. I suspect that the problem occurs only with Word. -- http://www.standards.com/; Howard Kaikow's web site. Tag: MS Word immediately closes with no intervention Tag: 61642

    - Just Curious I created a template with several autotext and macros. It works just fine on my pcs (both have Office Pro 2000 SP-3 and one is XP and the other is Win 2000). However some of my team have Win 2K and Office 2000 SR-1a. They keep experiencing "winword.exe caused errors..." crashes. They have suggested that my template is the cause. I have agreed but have told them need to upgrade to SP-3 and see if the problem still exists. Just wondering if anyone has a clue to what could be causing the crashes and if I can do something with the template to bullet-proof it for Office 2000 SR-1a?

    - Word 2002 is confused over the active doc filename Hi, I wonder if anyone has had this problem, or can suggest whats going on here? I'm editing a longish doc. and have resaved the latest version of it with a new filename. Word can find and open the new doc. and shows its new name in the recent file list. So far so good. But when I try to insert a filename and path footer using the footer autotexts, it puts in the OLD filename. Checking the file properties box shows that Word still thinks this is the old file, not the new one, even though it has been "saved as..." the new name and subsequently opened in this new name. Resaving doesn't resolve this error, and there does not seem to be a way to manually update the properties. All ideas and suggestions will be gratefully received. Thanks Geoff Rendall, Sussex, UK.

    - Word 2000 Freezes when Laptop disconnected from network Laptop has Windows 2000 Professional SP3. Word 2000 SR-1 is installed. When connected to LAN, Word functions correctly. When network cable is removed, and laptop is disconnected, WORD lets the user type a few things, but will lock up if saved, or if WORD is closed. Looked at the File locations, and all are on the local "C" drive. Looked at the normal.dot, which seems okay, and is on the local PC. Tried starting Word withouth any startup files (msword.exe /a) and the problem is still exhibited. Updated E-trust virus scan to latest DAT and ran full scan, no virii found. If network cable is plugged in at the first sign if a hang (saving local document) then everything begins working again. If you wait, the PC begins exhibiting symptoms of being ot of resources, and you can't even shut down, or log out. It seems apparent that WORD is trying to find or get something off the network. The computer freezes and looses resources as time goes by without communicating. Any assistance is appreciated. Please send me email at sstone@wizmoNOSPAM.com Please remove the "NOSPAM".

OS = Windows 98
MS Office 2000 -- Problem is with both Excel and Word

I have the same products on both of my home computers. One
functions adequately -- the other does not.

I receive no error messages.

I can open Word or excel via any path and the result is
always the same. They both go through all of the motions
to open -- virus scan, setting up tool bars, pulling up the
document requested. After appearing to open and within
five seconds, the application closes. No error messages.

I have tried 1. uninstalling and reinstalling, 2. Repairing
via the MS Office CD, 3. Replacing the Normal.dot file with
the known working one.

How can I resolve this issue?

Thanks, Lee
