Failure to print
Within the last week, my printer has been failing to print any documents I
prepare in Word. I can print everything else: emails, pages from the internet, etc, so I don't think it is the printer. I can even print help topics from within Word, but I can't print documents I prepare. They don't show up in the queue. My printer is selected as the default printer, so that seems to be OK. Any ideas? -- ketch33 |

Failure to print
Have you activated Word? What do you see if you select "Activate Product"
from the Help menu? -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

Failure to print
When I open Word, and then open the help menu, I don't find "activate
product". My Word came as a part of Microsoft WordPerfect 12 package preloaded on my Dell computer. Don't know if that is relevant. I also am finding that not only can I not print new documents I prepare, I can't print a document I prepared previously and which I have printed several times in the past. -- ketch33 "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: Have you activated Word?

Ummmmmmmmm, Don. You've made a big mistake. Microsoft doesn't make
WordPerfect, Corel does. And WordPerfect is a completely different program. You should be asking a WordPerfect newsgroup, not Word. Sorry. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Don K." wrote in message ... When I open Word, and then open the help menu, I don't find "activate product".

Okay, you've got a computer with, I suspect, Corel (WordPerfect) Office
Suite and a trial version of Microsoft Office (not related). If you want to keep Microsoft Office instead of Corel, see €śHow to convert a Office 2003 Trial Edition to a Full Retail Edition€ť at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=831023 -- Suzanne S.

Thanks for all your responses. I DO have Corel's Work Perfect 12, but when
you open it, you can choose to work in "Microsoft Word Mode" or in "Word Perfect Mode". That is what confused me, as I was working in "Microsoft Word Mode". Anyway, I wasn't able to figure out my printing problem, so I used XP's "back in time" System Restore Wizard and took the computer back to the date one day before I last successfully printed a document from WordPerfect. That apparently took care of whatever setting wasn't correct because it now seems to be printing fine. Thanks again for your help. -- ketch33 "Suzanne S.
