Check in your Start Menu, under the Microsoft Office folder, there is another folder Microsoft Office Tools. There is a Diagnostics Tool in there. Did you try running that? Personally I have had tons of Microsoft related issues over the years I have used from Windows 95 on up to Windows 7. I recently switched over to Linux and since it's open-source operating system, there is much more productivity, and support online. Microsoft owns Word and Windows, and you have to be certified to be a developer. This limits support to a handful of people. Not to mention that using Linux is completely free and recommended. My personal favorite distribution is called Linux Mint. Try that out, it's simple to install after burning the image to a disc and booting it. It will give you an option, after installing from disc, to choose between what OS you want at the boot. It's called A Grub Boot Loader. There you can choose if you want to start Linux today, or Microsoft Windows. Oh and don't worry it comes with pseudo Word software called Open-Office.org it's the same looking so there is little to learn with it. It's fantastic for reading or writing word documents.
I am working with a
Hi,
The message (a catch-all for anything that the system doesn't understand)
usually indicates that the document is starting to corrupt. Try opening the
document using the Detect and Repair option which should find the corruption
for you.
With a document this size, it is important to try and get the size down. I
recommend that graphics are edited in an editor outside Word (such as the
free IrfanView) where the size and resolution should be reduced and the
graphic saved in jpeg before inserting into Word. Use Insert, Picture from
File: don't copy and paste the graphics. If graphics are only going to be
viewed on screen, then 72dpi or 96dpi is more than sufficient. If the
document is for eventual printing, then 300dpi should suffice.
If the document is still large after editing all the graphics, then I
recommend linking them rather than inserting them.
You can save as Rich Text File, and if you remove the Save AutoRecover option
from Tools/Options in MS Word you can temporarily save files.
Also in some cases the problem can be your printer (HP mainly because they update regularly) Try removing the software for the printer and see if that fixes the problem, as it suggests the problem isn't
Word but something attached or associated to Word.
Good luck.
Cannot Save Word Files to CD-Rom
Dear friend, this is not possible. you can not save anything to CD-ROM like that. you have to save it to computer first and then you must burn your cd with Nero Burning software etc.
Rate me as fixya.
let me know if further help required.
Toolbar/menu/handle disappeared from saved and new documents.
Sounds like you've either gone into Full Screen mode or have turned off your Toolbars and Menu via the Customize command.
Normally pressing ESC will exit the Full Screen Mode. If you can't see the Menu try using the keyboard shortcuts like so. Keep the ALT key held down and press V followed T. Hopefully you should now see the menu and select "Customize..." to turn everything back on again.
Missing list of last opened files
You could look for this in another spot: go to view on the tool bar check off the task toolbar. On that tool bar (which should show up on the right side of your screen) make sure the getting started is the one choosen. You should see a list at the bottom of the screen of the recient documents. If that does not work, I will ask the obvious do you see a set of arrows pointing downward when you open the file menu. If you do click on the arrows and you should see a more complete menu including your file list.
Editing a document that has no security on it
This is an interesting problem. Since you've already tried copy/paste to a new document, I'll assume you don't care about the file so much as the text in it.
First, make a copy of the file and let's experiment with that.
You said you cannot copy the text, but I'm not sure if that is because you cannot "select" the entire text of the document or because the copy function is simply not working on that file. If you're able to open the document at all, try using keyboard commands to perform the copy/paste. Open the doc and leave the cursor at the beginning of the text. Then attempt to select all the text by pressing Ctrl-A. If that works, then press Ctrl-C. Leave the document open and press Ctrl-N to open a new doc page. Then press Ctrl-V and see if the text pastes in. One important thing to know would be if the text pastes but exhibits the same 'symptom'. If so, attempt an EDIT, PASTE SPECIAL and try pasting "unformatted text". Unfortunately, that method will also remove your formatting.
Here's another approach that may allow you to retain most MS Word formatting items. Click START, RUN and type "wordpad" .. Then hit ENTER. This launches MS Wordpad which should be able to open most .doc files. Use the FILE, OPEN menu items to locate and attempt to open the document in question. If from here you are able to select all the text (Ctrl-A) and copy it (Ctrl-C) and paste it (Ctrl-V) into a new doc file, then we will move on to another possible option.
Another approach would be to download one of the many different .doc repair utilities that exist. There are a number of free ones as well.. repairmyword.com advertises a number of free utilities you may have luck with.
Hopefully one of these will help fix the matter... if not, let us know!
Good luck!

A buffer overrun error is a somewhat generic error in the sense that buffer overruns can occur in the OS, OS subsystems or any application that you may be running. So what you have posted here does not necessarily tell me where the issue lies. Here's a progressive approach to solving the issue.
Buffer overruns are runtime errors in the program code. They occur when a program attempts to write more information to a particular "array" than is allowed or expected. MS Windows has a number of security patches specifically designed to fix these loopholes in their OS. So to start with, I strongly suggest visiting the Windows Update site and patching your Windows operating system until the website tells you that there a no updates available. Sometimes you will have to go through the process a few times before all the updates are successfully applied.
Next visit the Microsoft Office update site (office.microsoft.com/officeupdate). There is also a link to it on the Windows Update page. Update your Office application in the same manner. Once that's done if you are still experiencing the problem, you'll want to launch the installer for MS Office from your disk and attempt a repair.
If that fails, perform an uninstall of MS Office, then manually delete the Winword.exe file from your PC and reinstall the software from scratch.
This progressive approach should fix whatever the issue is.
Good luck!

It sounds like a fault in the program.
Go to the "Add and Remove Programs" in your Control panel. Do a "Change" and do the 'repair program' utility.
That should fix it, good as new.
Have the install disk handy, you will need it.
Word Perfect 10
I found a way to put an icon on my desktop that lets me open WP10. The bar still gives the same problem, but the icon is easier anyway. I went to Windows Explorer, then Corel, then WordPerfect Office 2002, then Programs. When the icons come up on the right side screen, I right-clicked on the one named WPWIN10.exe, then create shortcut, then Send To, then send to desktop. After that, I went to the desktop and renamed it WP10 and it works perfectly to take me straight into the program. Hope this helps.

Help for project
Saang,
It is a really bad idea to use Office Automation on a web server, your application will not be scalable and will be full of problems. Trust me, I have already spent hundreds of dollars with Microsoft Tech support for this very thing. I code commercial applications for a living, best thing to do is buy an application that creates office documents for you easily through asp.net. I have used a product from Aspose and it has done great. You can download a free trial to check it out.

It will save you lots of time coding as well, because they make it very easy to customize your documents.
Hope this helps!
