Default Killed and Excel and Word doesn't open any file

I'm saying that deleting the building block.dotx file and/or disabling the
Office Plug-in in NAV should fix the problem. Read the hundreds of other
threads over the last few days regarding exactly the same problem.

are you saying that (\Documents and Settings\user name\Application
Data\Microsoft\Document Building Blocks

should have worked? It did not.

I did an all file search and found 1 file in what looked like a previous
version, which I deleted. Should that have worked ? it did not.

I am trying to disable office in norton 2006 - no toggle found!

Help - I am still out of business

No luck yet - still dead

1. I did follow ---- (\Documents and Settings\user name\Application
Data\Microsoft\Document Building Blocks on Windows XP

But , the last words "on Windows XP" were not there. My file did
however
have one Building Blocks.botx file which I did delete.

2. I did not follow where to put :
\users\user name\app data\roaming\\Microsoft\Document Building
Blocks).


Is it part of the same string of files?

I did reboot Word an the error said: could not find file


Thank you for your help.

Have you deleted the building blocks.dotx file?

1. Close Word.
2. Go to your user building blocks directory (\Documents and
Settings\user
name\Application Data\Microsoft\Document Building Blocks on Windows
XP,
\users\user name\app data\roaming\\Microsoft\Document Building
Blocks).
3. Go into any subdirectories and delete your Building Blocks.dotx
file.
4. Reboot Word will regenerate the file for you.
