Default how do I modify WordArt created using an earlier version of Word?

Hi ?B?TW9yYWcgVG9kZA==?=,

I am using Word 2003 but when updating documents created in earlier versions,
get the error message "The server application, source file, or item cannot be
found" when trying to modify WordArt within the documents.

WordArt hasn't been changed for a few versions... Are you able to modify WordArt
you created yourself, on this machine, in documents you've saved, closed and
re-opened?

If you see the same message, then you have an Addin (such as the Norton AV
Office Plug-in) that's interfering with the process. You'll have to track it
down and disable or uninstall it.
