Hi Lars-Eric,

I just patched up to SP1, my version is identical to yours, but I'm still
having this problem. Not with all documents, only with some of our templates
which have macros in them.

Joseph,

Go to the Office update site (you can find it via Windows Update) and
update
Office 2003 and see if that helps.
I have Word 11.6359.6360, SP1

Regards,
Lars-Eric

We have thousands of documents which were developed in previous versions
of
Word. When we try to open these in Word 2003 we get the following error:

Word was unable to read this document. It may be corrupt. Try one or more
of
the following:
* Open and Repair the file.
* Etc...

When I use Open and Repair I get a dialog box which says Errors were
detected in the file, etc.. and lists one error as 'Text Boxes 1'
(whatever
that means).

One way or another, I need to get this fixed up so that our users can
access
their documents.

1. Is there a software patch for this? I am currently running Word 2003
(11.5604.5606)

2. Is there a way that I can fix up all my documents programmatically? Is
the Open and Repair function available via the Word automation object
model?

Thanks for your help!
