When in Word, the program is open and when I click on 'open' and pull down
the menu, why does it turn gray and 15-20 seconds later, the menu appears? |

Hi "nowwhatzup",
I hope you are comfortable with your machine, because this fix requires some registry modification. Here is the process: 1. Quit all Windows programs. 2. Click Start and then click Run. 3. In the Open box, type Regedit and then click OK. 4. Open the following registry key that is for your version of Word: Word 2000: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Wo rd Word 2002: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\W ord Word 2003: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\W ord Word 2007: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\W ord 5. Under the Word key, click the Data subkey. 6. On the Edit menu, click Rename or Delete(I prefer to select rename). 7. Click Yes if the following message appears: Are you sure you want to delete this key? 8. On the Registry menu, click Exit. 9. Start Word. Hope this helps!

Hi Saravanan,
I'm playing around with the Word 2007 on another computer since I am not too familiar with registry keys and what not, but when you said to click on 'data' and then rename it, what would I rename it to? And if the option of delete is required, what would happen when I go to open Word and then go to open a file?

Rename the key to Old data (with Word closed). Word will build a new one
when next started. See http://www.gmayor.com/my_toolbars_are_missing.htm which shows how to locate the registry key - Wored 2007 is Word 12.0 for this purpose. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org nowwhatzup wrote: Hi Saravanan, I'm playing around with the Word 2007 on another computer since I am not too familiar with registry keys and what not, but when you said to click on 'data' and then rename it, what would I rename it to?

Hi "nowwhatzup",
Whenever you delete the data key, Word rebuilds the Word Data registry key by using the default settings(its like reseting the word data key). Renaming will be the best option so that you will have copy of data key, You can rename it by adding any number or character with the existing data key name. If you delete the data key, it wont affect your system or any application, the Steps which I mentioned is from the authorised Microsoft website.So you can go ahead with the steps.
