Posted July 15, 200816 yr I followed some steps but made it simpler but just renaming the file: 1.Exit all Office programs. 2.Click *Start*, click *Run*, type regedit, and then click *OK*. 3.Locate the following registry subkey, as appropriate for the version of Word that you are running: •Word 2002: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft Office\10.0\Word\Data •Word 2003: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft Office\11.0\Word\Data •Word 2007: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft Office\12.0\Word\Data 4.rename the file to: Olddata.reg 5.Exit Registry Editor. 6.Start Word. If Word starts and works correctly, you have resolved the problem. The problem was a damaged Word Data registry key. You may have to change several settings to restore your favorite options in Word. Good luck -- Bernard0323
