these errors appear from the first at the top thru to the last in order of progression when one tries to open any word doc........i've tried a 'repair' on word but no luck........

any ideas will be useful and appreciated

The normal.dot file maybe corrupted.

Rename normal.dot to normal.old (close word first), then rename this file, then run word again.

THE VISUAL BASIC ENVIRONMENT COULD NOT BE INITIATED

&

MICROSOFT WORD COULD NOT FIRE THE DOCUMENT. CONSULT YOU ITS.

Hrumph..I am just gonna use OpenOffice until this all blows over. :xmouth:

That is the prob i would think, i had the same thing happen, so i deleted all the .dot files and now it works

You only needed to delete Normal.dot. The rest, and there should be quite few, are really fairly valuable material. If you get stuck for them, you can download most from Microsoft. :cool: Scouse (83)
366063 2005-06-22 20:58:00 It never affected me, i only had two in there, one from myob, and the normal.dot one, delete them both, and now everything works 100%
