Kasper,

Any progress on your crashing issues? Yours may be
identical to mine, and after long searching, yours is the
only similar account I've found so far..

I have W2k and Office 2003. Perhaps it did start after I
upgraded Office from 2000 to 2003..

I knew someone else must have faced this somewhere, but it
was getting discouraging.. At least I've found something..
If I discover anything, I'll post a follow-up for you
anyone else searching..

JB
