Docs won't open "because a dialog box is open."
All of a sudden, when I try to open word documents I get the error message
"the command cannot be performed because a dialog box is open." I've never seen this before. Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be? Thanks, s. |

If you're using Symantec/Norton AntiVirus, try disabling the
Office Plugin that comes with it. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=329820 "How to use Office programs with the Norton AntiVirus Office plug-in" for more information.

Why would this suddenly occur after years running Norton with no problem?

You had better ask Symantec who make this application, as the problem came
with an update a year or so back. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Saudades wrote: Why would this suddenly occur after years running Norton with no problem? s.
