Blank Areas in Menu Options
Since working on one moderately large (60 pages) document) whenever I open
any document in Word (Word 2003) if I click on Tools in the menu, I get the usual list but following "Options" is a large amount of empty entries. I can see some group dividers but no text. If I click on "Insert", there is a lot of empty space after the "Picture" option. Any ideas on how to correct this? Wayne |

Other users have reported a lot of "Clip Collection" menu entries in this
vicinity; that phenomenon is caused by the Microsoft Works Suite Add-in for Word, but if you have Word 2003 (not available in a Works Suite package), then that's not the likely culprit (unless you've got the add-in left over from a previous version?). You can delete the phantom entries by dragging them off the menu while you have the Tools | Customize dialog open, but until you figure out what add-in is putting them there, they'll keep coming back. -- Suzanne S.

Suzanne;
Thanks or the reply. I actual used the "Reset" under Options and that seems to have cleared out those entries? Wayne "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...
