Can't open MS-Word File?
Hi,
I emailed a MS-Word file to someone when he told me he couldn't open it?! I did some testing by trying to email myself some MS-Word I have. To my suprise, I couldn't open it either. What happens, once I select Open or Save the file, it keeps trying for long before I shut it off! What could be the problem? I tried to do same with Excel file but NO problem! John |

Can't open MS-Word File?
Could it be trying to load an associated document template that's located on
either a server that's not available or that's especially slow? When you try opening the file, look at the status bar to see if there's a message about its trying to access the template file. If so, you should be able to intervene by pressing Escape. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com wrote in message ...
