I do not know how to do the things you said or what they mean. My computer
works, but so far it is only Word that gives me problems.
I did reset Office to its original settings, now I lost all my Outlook info
and hope there is a way to get back my contacts especially. I tried to "fix"
Office with the installation disk. I thought next, I might try to uninstall
Word and reinstall it.
Your comments?
