Can't Open Word 2003
Hi,
I'm having issues opening Word 2003. The box that shows it's opening pops up, then nothing. I have no idea why this is happening, is it possible that activating OneNote may have caused this, or does anyone have any idea about what I can do? I'm a student and this program is essential to me. Please help! |

Can't Open Word 2003
I think that this information is the right material to solve my problem of my
Microsoft Word opening slowly. I ran winword.exe /a and Word opened right up. I do not understand how to find my Normal.dot template in order to rename it. Can you tell me how to do that. -- Steve R "Herb Tyson [MVP]" wrote: Problems opening Word usually are due to corrupted registry entries or a corrupted Normal.dot.

Can't Open Word 2003
Thank you. I was able to locate normal.dot and tried to rename it. This did
not correct the problem. The next recommendation was to delete a registry key (\\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10. 0\Word\Data) but the instructions do not say how to find this key or how to delete it. Can anyone help? -- Steve R "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...ocNotBlank.htm -- Suzanne S.

Can't Open Word 2003
At the Start | Run prompt, type regedit and press Enter. You'll get a
display similar to Windows Explorer in which you can navigate the path given below. For Word 2003, however, you'll need \\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0 \Word\Data or equivalent. -- Suzanne S.
