Re: Help - Word 2003 opening trouble

Wonder what happened to Norton's. It used to be such a good product. Now the
universal advice (and it seems to work) is 'disable Norton's.

Thank you so much. It is working now.

If you have Norton AntiVirus installed, disable its Office Plug-in. If
that's not the problem, it's probably due to another add-in.

As I double click on a document file (.doc file),
Word opens with an error msg like this -
_______________________________________________
Microsoft Office Word
"The command cannot be performed because a dialog box is open.
Click OK, and then close open dialog boxes to continue."
_______________________________________________

But I can open the Word, then open the doc file from within the
Word without any problem. I have unloaded the whole Office
and re-loaded it back. But I still have the same problem.

How do I fix this problem? Any help will be highly appreciated.
