Cannot save or "save as" any document
My Word 2003 can open existing Word documents, but it will not save any
document, or do a "save as" for any document. This problem occurs for documents in either local or network folders. No error message is displayed -- in fact, nothing happens. This happens whether I open an existing document or do a new/blank document. I can create a document in Word Pad and save it. I can then open that same document in Word, but I cannot save it. If it were a permissions problem, I would expect an error message. Clearly it is not a permissions problem for the files I try to save since I can open them and save them via Word Pad. I tried doing a "Help|Detect and Repair", but that did not fix the problem. I can successfully open and save documents in other MS Office programs (like Excel, Access) to both local and network folders - but I realize those programs have their own settings. separate from Word. No changes have been made to my computer (other than Microsoft Updates). Googling this problem results in finding several people over the years who have had the same problem, but I did not find a conclusive solution. Several of the people who reported the same problem reported that they reinstalled Word but that still did not fix the problem. My version of Word is 2003 (11.8313.8221) SP3 Any suggestions for solving this problem? Thanks! Jerry |
