Word has stopped saving docs
I am unable to save (or save as). After uninstalling and reinstalling Word
2003 and then the whole Office 2003 Pro, the problem persists. Any ideas? |

Hard to suggest, without more info about the symptoms. What actually happens
when you click Save? That said, there is a Word virus that kills the Save function. Was, anyway. Quite a few years since I've seen or heard of it. "Theo" wrote in message ...

Have you activated the application? Is it a time limited demo, supplied with
your PC, that has no expired? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Theo wrote: I am unable to save (or save as). After uninstalling and reinstalling Word 2003 and then the whole Office 2003 Pro, the problem persists. Any ideas? |

If I close a document (or close out of Word) the dialogue asks if I want to save. If I click on "save," nothing happens and I am returned to the document. I need to "don't save" in order to get out. Periodically I get a message on screen that says, "Microsoft Office Word: Saving the AutoRecovery file is postponed for Document 1." All my other programs seem to be working properly. Thanks for your reply. |

Thanks for giving this some thought. |

In Word, click on Tools | Macro | Macros. There should not be
any macros named FileSave or FileSaveAs. If there are, delete them. Theo wrote: I am unable to save (or save as). After uninstalling and reinstalling Word 2003 and then the whole Office 2003 Pro, the problem persists. Any ideas? |

If Garfield's solution does not fix this and you have established that there
is no virus issue, then the problems are probably associated with factors external to Word. Start with http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm and then work through the trouble shooting tips at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...peningWord.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Theo wrote: "Graham Mayor" wrote: Have you activated the application?

Theo wrote: I am unable to save (or save as). After uninstalling and reinstalling Word 2003 and then the whole Office 2003 Pro, the problem persists. Any ideas? Well, I appreciate your suggestions. There are no macros with those names. The other modules of Office 2003 Pro are operational. It's only Word which has this problem. Makes me wonder how it could be an external problem. But I'm open to any further suggestions. Can you think of anywhere else I could address this issue? Thanks again. |

Could the commands have been overridden via the commandbars?
If you go to Tools Customize Toolbars tab Scroll down and select Menu Bar from the list Click on Reset and answer OK Does that make any difference? -- Enjoy, Tony "Theo" wrote in message ...
