Hi Joe

I am an MS Word user but, I must admit, I still use MS Word 97 and, to tell the truth, I see no reason to change it because all the features I use I would still use no matter what the version of Word was available.

That said, it seems that your copy of Word has possibly become corrupt. If it has then I would suggest the following:

1) Copy all your Word documents etc. to another location on your HD, preferably a new directory.

NB: Insure that you also have a copy your MS Word registration number because you will need this when you start the re-installation process.

2) Uninstall Word from your PC and delete any directory and files that have been left behind by the uninstallation process.

The idea behind the above instructions is to remove any and all corruption that has attached itself to your application and to insure that it does not reoccur.

3) Reinstall MS Word from your application disk.

And finally, copy your documents from your new directory back to where MS Word expects to find them.

And that should be that.
