Merge suddenly fails on two computers
I am having a strange problem with two merge documents that I have
used many times in the past. At various points in the merge process (sometimes as early as just loading the document) Word 2003 locks and offers apologies that it must close. After this happened a couple of times I dug out my Office 2003 disk and repaired the installation. The next merge worked normally, but subsequent merges fail in the same manner. I checked for updates and Microsoft Update reports that Vista is current. (I was unable to find Office Service Pack 3 in the lengthy list of installed updates, but I assume it is there somewhere). I then went to an XP machine that had the same files on it from months ago (and has also done merges uneventfully in the past). It exhibits the same problem of failing at various points in the process. I updated Office on that machine with Service Pack 3 and the problem remains. It's almost as if there was an update to either office or the OS that broke the merge process. Any ideas, anyone???? -Harry |
