In WORD 2003: Selecting "Edit/Find" doesn't display dialog box
The 'Subject' title says it all. When I select Edit then Find, I get a quick
flash and nothing happens. It used to open a dialog box from which I could enter the text that I wanted to find or replace. Now, I never get to see that dialog box any more. |

Does the same thing happen if you press Ctrl+F? What about Ctrl+H (should
open the dialog with the Replace tab on top)? -- Suzanne S.

As a first step, go to ToolsCustomize - Toolbars. Click the *name* of the
Menu Bar, then click Reset & OK. If that doesn't fix it take a look at: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/MissingMenusEtc.htm -- HTH |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "John Membrino" John wrote in message ...

I was directed to "Repair" my Office Installation. I did that and for some reason, the 'Edit/Find' function worked. It appears that CyberTaz's comment 'stuff happens' was appropriate. Thank you both again, John Membrino |
