Help please with "This document could not be registered" message
I am running Word 2000 (9.0269 SP-3) on WinXP Pro/SP2.
When I open any existing document I get this message: "This document could not be registered. It will not be possible to create links from other documents to this document." What is causing this and how can I prevent it? |

Although there are possible other causes, this is one symptom of infection
by the Blaster worm. See http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/blast.asp -- Suzanne S.

Hi Suzanne,
This is another page that MS has renamed. Now it's at http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/blast.mspx (note the 'x' on the end). -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

See http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/blast.asp Suzanne, after you posted I went and looked into the Blaster worm. I have downloaded and run two detection tools (Symantec's and McAfee's) but neither found Blaster. Nor did my own PC's anti-virus software. In fact, I have never had the other symptoms of Blaster such as the strange shutdowns. After all that, I ran a "repair installation" of Office 2000 but that didn't help. So I then ran a "re-installation" of Office and that hasn't helped either. What other causes of this message could there be? |

I was just researching another similar problem and found Word 95 and 97 KB
articles that suggested rerunning setup with the /y switch to repair damaged OLE files in the Registry, but the equivalent in Word 2000 would be the repair installation you've already performed. So I'm out of ideas. -- Suzanne S.
