Word 2003, Open not responding
Help! I cannot open my documents in Word when I am in Word. If I exit Word
and go to My Documents and click on the folder, then on the document, it will open up in Word. I tried turning off Norton Office Plug-in, but it did not work. I cannot even go to System Restore to an early date in case an Automatic Download did something. I run Norton Internet Security. Thanks! |

posts for 4/17/06... Anyway, I was having similar problems, dumped the update per one of your other messages and now, the re-install word thingy cannot find a cab file - SKU112.CAB. ANy ideas for me? The laptop came with office 03, I just unlocked it... Yes, I did post a question on a board here but I cannot find it now... "Suzanne S.

Has this issue started up again?
My laptop's "word" will not "save as" again... and it is still looking for that cab file every time I try to open it.Then it tells me that word 11 has a problem and that feature (doens't say what feature) will not work. Then the program opens. I can type, open files just cannot save anything. Any ideas? Colm "Suzanne S.

interesting that all of the so-called fixes tell us that we must be using HP
procucts that are causing the problem... but I have NO HP products on my system...not a single one... so that cannot be it...MS will not help... cant afford the exhorbitant recurring fees for help from MS (min $35 each and every time I have a question!), and non of the proposed fixes here seem to work (at least, the ones I can understand...some of you apparently think we are all computer techs with a vast knowlege of the inner workings of the system). .... guess I will have to reformat the HD and start all over again (and what a mess THAT was the last time I had to do it!!! Thanks to MS software screwups... almost makes one want to switch to macs...). Too bad MS does not support loyal users... -- OceanMock "Charles Kenyon" wrote: I hope so.

Word 2003, Open not responding
Does this rant have anything to do with Microsoft Word - or even the content
of this old thread? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org OceanMock wrote: interesting that all of the so-called fixes tell us that we must be using HP procucts that are causing the problem... but I have NO HP products on my system...not a single one... so that cannot be it...MS will not help... cant afford the exhorbitant recurring fees for help from MS (min $35 each and every time I have a question!), and non of the proposed fixes here seem to work (at least, the ones I can understand...some of you apparently think we are all computer techs with a vast knowlege of the inner workings of the system). ... guess I will have to reformat the HD and start all over again (and what a mess THAT was the last time I had to do it!!! Thanks to MS software screwups... almost makes one want to switch to macs...). Too bad MS does not support loyal users... I hope so. It cures a real security risk. Keep reading the newsgroups for news on this because a better fix will come along.
