I have been having problems with Microsoft Word 97 lately. I wanted
to print a few copies and when I select file and then print and then I
choose how many copies that I want to make; and an error message comes
on my screen that "Microsoft Word for Windows 97 application file has
encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the
inconvenience." I am running this word program on my Windows XP
system. Please help. Thank you very much.

Sounds like the document or Office 97 is corrupt? You could open a new blank
document - take a "spacebar" space and then Insert File into the new blank
document. Save it with a new name and then try printing to see if it is the
document.

Hope this helps.

You could perhaps trying printing it without opening - use Windows Explorer
right click and print
