Does it really require signing up for Office Live or just for a Live ID (the
latest version of Passport)?

The first one would be, How do I get it? I went to Yves's link, saw
that I wouldn't expect to use any of the 10 "improvements" anyway
(though the one that recovers unsaved documents might be handy), but
if it can handle newly added Unicode ranges, then I need it, clicked
the Download button, and it took me to a page asking me to "Sign in."
Signing in didn't work, so it suggested that maybe I need to sign _up_
first. But (a) that apparently means signing up for "Office Live,"
which I see from threads here can be quite problematic, and (b) there
wasn't any hint of how to sign up.

Jay,
The beta is public now
(http://www.microsoft.com/office/2010/en/default.aspx) so I doubt there
are
any restrictions on where to talk about it.

If you need any additional help with this problem, please don't post
in the public forum. Problems with the beta are under your
nondisclosure agreement. Instead, post in the setup and installation
forum on Connect -- you should have gotten instructions on how to find
the beta forums when you got your invitation.

Do you have any addins installed? If so, try starting Word with the
/safe
option and disable them.

I have been recently invited to participate in Office 2010 beta and I
am
having probs with word 2010 beta...Always at open, it encounters an
error
and
has to close. All the other office programs work just fine! (outlook,
access,
excel etc all ok)
On the top bar it does show word fails validation, all the other
programs
validate just fine....I have tried the repair option, completely
removed
all
office products, run tools like CCleaner, complete reinstall and
revalidate
and fully updated MS updates and of course needed reboots. I am
running
XP
Pro SP3
But I still have the same issue-any ideas?
