Do you have Adobe Acrobat on your machine?

[emad senejani]

If by adobe acrobat you mean adobe reader, than yes I do. The version is
Adobe Reader 8.0, but I have downloaded that few days a go and my problem has
been occurring since I downloaded Microsoft office 2007. And that was before
downloading Adobe.

If you have boith 2003 and 2007 on your PC, the problem may simply be
reconfiguration that takes place when registry entries are shared between
the two versions.

Check in your Event Viewer under 'Application'. There should be
Installer errors, warnings or info events there. Double-click and read
them to see if there is a useful message. Often there is--that is how
I discovered that Acrobat was causing this behavior on my machine.

I suspect Graham is correct here; I had some problems while I was
running 2007 and 2003. Solved it by uninstalling 2007. Damn thing
drove me crazy--couldn't find stuff anymore. I wish MS, and all SW
companies would fix problems instead of giving us new bloat we don't
need. I also wish there was a 'Word Lite' version ('Word Elements'?)
for writer folks like me who just need WP with styles, etc. No tables,
images...

If you send a business a resume in 2007, you're liable to never hear from
them again. Most businesses are not going to have 2007 yet. I work for a

I did read something recently on how to fix it but it's a registry fix and I
can't access the directions now.

Although you think that big business use the latest software, you'd be
wrong. they hold off because most businesses run a multitude of different
programs and it's not always easy maintaining the fragile coexistence of
these applications.

Do yourself a favor - stick to 2003 for now...at least until one of my
fellow MVPs can repeat those instructions to make Word 2003 and 2007 work
together.

Here's the information supplied by our contact at Microsoft:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Windows Installer is running because it is setting the
CurrentVersion information in the registry between the versions. It
is possible to set a registry key to block the Windows Installer
kicking in. You'll want to only do this after confirming that
double-clicking on a document file from the Windows Desktop opens in
the version Word that you would like to be the default version for
editing Word documents. It will still be possible to open the
document in either version of Microsoft Word via File|Open.

The registry modification is ...

Use the NoRereg key for whichever version you don't want to register.


HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\W ord\Options

Add a DWORD named NoRereg set to 1

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

multiple versions on the same partition:

MAJOR multi-national company and we still use IE 6.

YOU'RE RIGHT. but, I need to use both since for school projects I
must
use
word 2003-since my school is very poor and can't afford office
2007;(you
may
think "well why don't you save it as a 2003 document?" the answer
to
that
is
{not everything gets converted successfully in to word 2003). I
also
need
to
use office 2007 for resumes, and neet stuff!

I suspect Graham is correct here; I had some problems while I was
running 2007 and 2003. Solved it by uninstalling 2007. Damn thing
drove me crazy--couldn't find stuff anymore. I wish MS, and all SW
companies would fix problems instead of giving us new bloat we
don't
need. I also wish there was a 'Word Lite' version ('Word
Elements'?)
for writer folks like me who just need WP with styles, etc. No
tables,
images...
