path not valid
sometimes when I try to open a Word Document File I get this message:
"The document name or path is not valid. Check the path to make sure it was typed correctly." What is the path? and where could I find it to "check it"? I also want to say that I get this problem with files that have Arabic titles. sometimes they open when I change the title to English. but I do not want to do that to all files. I want to keep the original Arabic title. I have English/Arabic Microsof Office Proffesional 2000. my computer operating system is Windows XP home edition. please help. Abdul |

The message just means that Word can't find the file you've asked it to
open. The 'path' is the sequence of folder and sub-folder names that precede the name of the file itself. You can check it using Windows Explorer or My Computer. The problem will lie with Windows, not with Word: Word uses the Windows Explorer functions to open files. I have no idea how Windows deals with Arabic file names, but you can hardly be the first person to need to do this. You'll get an answer from the Arabic Windows forum, inshallah.
