Help please....just recently I have been having trouble opening Word
2003 in a VISTA operating system. I immediately get an error message
that tells me Word has stopped working when it hasn't even opened. It
then tells me a problem has stopped it from working but doesn't
indiate what problem and tells me "a solution will be sent to me once
one is found.

When I again try to open a document, it tells me it can't locate it. I then try to open WORD 1st (not the document 1st) and I get an error
message: Word failed to start correctly last time. Starting word in
safe mode will help you correct or isolate a start up problem in order
to successfully start the program. Some functionality may be disabled
in this mode.

I tried to detect and repair and it said it was successful but I still
have the problem. Has anyone else experienced this and do you have
any advice how to resolve this? Thanks in Advance!

If you can't get the issue reconciled, you might want to give
OpenOffice.org a try - it will probably do what you need.

I'm sure he can get the problem solved. OpenOffice is a piece of crap,
the GUI is about 10 years past, and OpenOffice is good for geeks and
trolls like yourself who have nothing better to do than insult people
here.

The OP has Word 2003, he doesn't want or need that OpenSores crap.

Go bother the people in the Ubuntu forum if you have such a hard-on for
OpenOffice and Ubuntu.


You are such a freaking idiot. Yes, if the OP can get his/her problems solved with MS word 2003, then he/she might as well use it. Otherwise, you'd rather see him/her do without. I've not indicated that OpenOffice would solve the entire world's problems but it sure as hell beats nothing. It works quite well for most people, contrary to your protestations.


OpenOffice Writer handles graphics better than Word. It scrolls better and is programmed more efficiently.

Everything you say is an outright lie.
Get lost. Go drink some oem ink!

And, BTW, if you'll go back and read my post, assuming you can comprehend that much, you'll see that I did not mention Ubuntu - which is also a good solution for many people. I use it myself in some situations. I also use Gentoo Linux, Debian Linux, Elive and, on occasion, RedHat Enterprise.
