Hi Doug,

What version of Word are we talking about here? What patches have been
installed? You can find this information under Help/About Microsoft
Word.

Did Word come installed as part of Works Suite? If so then more than
likely the "Microsoft Works Suite Add-In for Word" could be causing
the problem. Take a look in your Control Panel in Add/Remove Programs
and uninstall the Works Add-in.

Note you are not uninstalling Word or Works, just an add-in that
integrates some Works features into Word.
