How do I stop Word 2003 from shutting down?
I've just noticed a problem that my Word 2003 keeps shutting down. It will
shut down when I am using another program such as Outlook with no comment/explanation. I thought that I was closing it when i closed a document but i've been checking and it definitely isn't the case - it just closes the program every now and again. Has anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this problem? |

It's not that it shuts down, it just closes and you have to go back to the
icon or the program list to open it. Isn't that what you mean? -- VVS "Danny Oz" wrote: I've just noticed a problem that my Word 2003 keeps shutting down.

How do I stop Word 2003 from shutting down?
Hi Graham,
It's not that it keeps crashing but rather it just closes down. I've tried someone elses recommendation of going to Tools/Options/ and unclicking windows in taskbar. This resolves the problem however it means that when I alt-tab to look between documents it will only have one window for word. This means that I cant go from document to document which is not what i want. Do you have any other suggestions?

An unsolicited closure is a crash!

How do I stop Word 2003 from shutting down?
Hi Graham,
I see what you're saying but the difference is that the system isn't freezing with me needing to hold down ctrl-alt-del to get the taskbar up and close the program. It just closes.

How do I stop Word 2003 from shutting down?
Has anyone given an explanation that either explains this problem or solves
it? To repeat: Word "closes" when I go into Outlook to view a message and then minimize Outlook. Word doesn't even appear on the task/status bar at the bottom when I minimize Outlook. I'd really like to know how to stop this. -- VVS "vvs" wrote: To: Graham & Danny Okay. I closed all those files Graham mentioned in the Current documents file. I'll let you know how it goes.

How do I stop Word 2003 from shutting down?
I think I found one answer. Open Outlook. Go to "Tools" and click on
"Options." Then click "Mail Format" tab. Clear the "Use Microsoft Work to edit e-mail messages" box. -- VVS "Danny Oz" wrote: I've just noticed a problem that my Word 2003 keeps shutting down.

How do I stop Word 2003 from shutting down?
Graham
I had a similar problem with Word 2002 which was overcome after installing Office 2003. Today the automatic update (which shows as having added KB951376-v2 to the Windows path) seems to have triggered the same unexpected closing of Word 2003 as before. I followed VVS's advice and unchecked the default Word in Outlook's Mail Format screen and then closed Outlook which I usually leave open. This has not fixed the problem and Word still closes during data entry in a document. Any suggestions?
