Hi there,
When I start Microsoft Word 2002, the new document Task Pane does not appear
or the area where the Task Pane should be located appears briefly and
disapprears. The Task Pane should usually be located at the MS Word startup
on the right side of the screen.
The Problem occurs even if the "Show Task Pane at the startup" check box is
selected in the path: Tools = Options = View tab.
The above problem is described in Microsoft Knowkedge Base KB - Article ID
295341;
see
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/295341/en-us .
Well, Microsoft advices to delete any files that are located in the MS Word
Startup folders. I identified such two folders in the paths:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Offioce 10\Startup; and
C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Applications
Data\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP.
And the folders were already empty. Thus - this is not a reason of my Task
Pane startup problem, as it was suggested by the Microsoft team (see KB
Article cited above).
The question is: what to do?
My hypothesis is that something is broken in my Windows Registry key entries
related to MS Word or to MS Office. O.K. - but where is it?
Do you have any suggestions? I would be grateful for some help.
Greetings,
