Default Automatic Font Change In Word 2007

I did remove Office 2007 and then did a full reinstall but the problem still
persists. Before I uninstalled Office I removed Adobe Acrobat Pro. I read
some where that Abobe could cause a problem with earlier versions of Office.
I only have 2 Com Ad-In's (1) Mappoint and (2) Adobe RoboHelp. I did remove
it from the Ad-Ins but that didn't help anything either. I also tried running
a Microsoft Office Diagnostics and a rpeair to no avail.

I do appreciate your help but I am not sure anyone will have an answer to
this problem to enable Live Preview.

Thanks again.

Remove Office 2007 completely and do a full reinstall?

Patrick,

I did rename the Normal.dotm and that had no effect. Sorry.

Ok, so are you running Office 2007 RTM on XP.
Can you try and rename the Normal.dotm file on your computer while Word
is closed and see what happens then?

Patrick,

The office build is: 12.0.4518.1014
Operating System: Windows XP Pro SP2

I'm not sure what the build number was for Office 2003. Again Office 2007
was upgraded over Office 2003.

Thanks.

I did try this but it is grayed out and not available. Very strange.

I believe there is an option buried somewhere that enables/disables "active
preview" or words to that effect.

I just upgraded from Office 2003 to 2007 and I thought you should be able
to
highlight a few sentences and then click on a font from the Home Ribbon
section and as you scrolls through the different fonts your text should
change to represent the font your mouse was hovering over.

In my case nothing happens. I can actual click on the font and it will
change the text but not the font review feature I was looking for.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
