Microsoft Word 2007
Hey Someone,
I recently (May '08) downloaded Word 2007 to my PC, replacing some earlier version of Word that came on the machine (Dell)... Here's the problem - when I click to "save" or "save as" a document, the program starts to reinstall the upgrade version, which it can't seem to find on the hard drive, so asks me to find it and click the "OK" button - when I click "cancel" to stop the reinstallation, it initially doesn't stop the process, and takes repeated clicks to cancel - the document may or may not have been saved... I've tried to download fixes for this, but haven't found a download package that addresses this problem, and have not been successful in getting any help from Microsoft's website technical support group because they require a product ID number, and the one that came with the download program apparently isn't in the right mode, or something - I keep getting an error message saying the ID number I've entered isn't it the right format (?)... I also have not been able to get in touch with any support people to even raise the question because the product ID number I have isn't accepted by their support page....and, they don't have any kind of general email or online access to even ask a question... So - anyone have this problem with the "save" step not saving a document and initiating a reinstall of a downloaded program...? HELP...!!! Gordon... |

Microsoft Word 2007
It sounds like you are using a trial version that has expired. You will
need to purchase a licensed copy of the software. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
