Default Why my undo function does not work

Hi Ken,

I bought a new notebook computer and installed Word 2003. Everything seems
to be working fine except Undo and Redo functions. I just could not use
these functions. After I types some texts into my documents and move the
cursor to the Undo or Redo buttons, the message can't undo or can't redo
will appear. It will be greatly appreciated if anyone can suggest some
solutions to this annoying problem.

Well, my first thought is that you may have some kind of Add-in loaded that's
clearing the Undo buffer.

If you start Word in Safe Mode, by holding CTRL, you get the installation
defaults. Does Undo/Redo work in Safe Mode?

If not, try starting Windows in Safe Mode and test in Word again.
