I had that problem right after Word 2007 was released. It's some kind of
settings problem, but I never was able to fix it (tried all kinds of
registry surgery, as well as copying entire directory trees from a working
profile to the one that wasn't working). In the end the only thing that
worked was to create a new user account in Windows. The new profile didn't
have the problem, and it hasn't recurred. A pain, yes... but it worked.

version of software is showing Word Doc Props no problem (separate

Thanks for help.

Do you also have InfoPath installed? If so, on the Developer tab, click
Document Information Panel and see if it's pointing to a non-existent
file.

Does anyone know if the below error is a bug or how to fix:
"The document information panel was unable to load!"
Has anyone had this error in 2007 and fixed it? Is it a bug?
I've run Word in safe mode 3 times and run Diagnostics twice and Office
Repair twice?
Any help appreciated?
Regards
