    >Your suggestion did provide some assistance, but in a
    related area. I found, by clicking on the repair link,
    that my Office CD needed to be run again. I had not done
    it since installing the computer some 4 years ago. After
    running it, some updates to Office were downloaded. But,
    the problem in Word continues.

    >I thought this news group (NG) was for all programs
    running under Windows. I will take your suggestion, and
    post the problem on the Word NG. Thanks.
