Default macro storage

I'm using Word 2000 in Windows XP. When I click on, or open, a new document,
I get the message: 'Could not open macro storage' under an ActiveDocs Lite
logo. I don't know how to rid my documents of this message. Is there anyone
who knows how I might do it?

JoAnne,

Thank you for taking the time to answer my querry.

I followed your advice, but got lost in a thicket of computerese in the
subsequent links.

A solution appeared to lie in the second answer to my post.

Much obliged,

Mal

It would appear that you have an add-in called ActiveDocs Lite; that is
where you need to look for the error.

Suzanne,

Thank you for taking the time to answer my querry.

Having traced the file to Adobe Reader 7, I found I couldn't open it for
repair or uninstall. A message appeared that read: Adobe reader couldn't
open [the file] because it is either not a supported file or has been
damaged.

Any suggestions?

I'm confused. Adobe Reader is designed to read PDF documents. You shouldn't
be trying to open PDFs in Word, nor should Adobe Reader have any effect on
Word.

Suzanne,

The information I posted in my reply warrants your puzzlement, since the
Adobe program (as you pointed out) does have nothing to do with Word.

Let me explain the problem in more depth, if youd be kind enough to read it
through.

When I click on the macro message after it appears in a Word document (or
sometimes even a file-list), the message disappears and Im able to complete
a writing task. When I click Save, a gratuitously-generated Do you want
to save changes? message appears. I click yes and the message disappears;
however, the document doesnt close. As a matter of fact, Im able to close
the document only by right-clicking in the title bar.

If this isnt enough, a further message appears when the document eventually
does close: The disk is full. Free some space on this drive, or close any
unedited documents, etc.,. I click close on this message, and yet even
another appears that reads: Invalid procedure call or argument.
Unfortunately, no sort of clicking closes this one.

But enough of the nested messages. In the end, I have to manually turn-off
the
computer.

Can you give me some advice? (This probably sounds as if Im asking someone
to dredge a lake to recover a trinket.) At this point, though, Ill even
comply if you should say: €œThrow the computer on a rubbish dump and get
another!€

Thank you.

Mal

So what is in the title bar of these messages: ActiveDocs Lite (as you
initially implied) or something to do with Adobe, or are they coming from
Word?

A frequent cause of this error is a missing or corrupted reference.
