Hi ?B?QW5kcmU=?=,
I have office 2000 pro English version. When i am writing in french, and i right click on a word to have synonyms of this word, Word crashes with the common dialog "Word has generated a error ...... " Anyone knows how to fix this issue. It does not crash when getting synonyms for english words. Only for French ... ?? Do i need an option pack ? a French dictionary ? FWIW, it works here. Do you have the latest Service Packs installed (d/l from the Microsoft site)? Have you installed all the French proofing tools?

Yes every updates has been installed. I am running on WinXp pro patched, this
issue has been duplicated on more than one machine. All options are installed, i also installed the "FrProo2k.exe" file, unless there's another special procedure to install french proofing tools, everything looks fine. I even reinstalled office and all the patches. Same result. Keyboard layout is french / Canadian multi-lingual. I don't think it would matter but in case it does. Let me know. I have seen some newgroup post relating to the same problem but there's no solution on any of them. -- thanks alot. Andre.

I'm not familiar with FrPoo2k.exe - where does that come from? Normally, for Office 2000, I'd have expected you to install the French proofing tools during Office setup. If this is a third-party tool, the problem could certainly be with that tool's intergration into Office. Have you tried asking the manufacturer?

Hi ?B?QW5kcmU=?=,
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...87C-42DB-83A9- 8B489FF12ADF&displaylang=en This is the link to the French Proofing tool update the "Frpoo2k.exe" from microsoft. Thanks for this. And yes i did installed the french proofing tools fromt he office installation. This sounds like a problem in the thesaurus DLL... Has the problem only started since you installed the update? If you uninstall, download again (in case a problem occurred during d/l) and re-install does that make any difference? If not, I can only recommend you ask in the word.spelling.grammar newsgroup, and hope an MS person drops by. Or contact Microsoft Support directly. If it's a bug in the software, the cost will be re-imbursed.
