Hi Becky,

What happens if you select Help Activate Product?

If it says the software is already activated, then see

Unless you are using an expired trial version, first check that you have
activated the product. If Word (Office) is correctly activated, then see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...artingWord.htm.

Dear Microsoft, I cannot type anything on the Word Document.

The Key board just could work on the Word document.

Please tell me what to do

Thanks!

I've tried your suggestions and didn't work. Is there anything else I could
try?

Well, Jay gave you two possible reasons:

1. Word hasn't been activated, or
2. It's a trial version that has expired.

If it's Word 2007, (2) is much more likely.
