Office 07 re-configuring
Hi Folks,
Every time I try to open a document or database my Office 2007 has to configure just like the first time it's used. This happened a while ago on only one of the two accounts on my XPS 410. I re- installed Office pro 2007 (retail box) and it stopped doing it, but now it has started doing it again every time I try to open any documents, spreadsheets or Access databases on both accounts.
After it configures it works fine.
Any one see this before?
Any ideas how to fix it?
- Hi Allan,Thanks for the replyI am running it as Administrator and yes, I tried Winword.exe (also winword /s) and it still configures. What an idiot I was I had a choice between Office 2003 and 2007 and I chose 2007.It's been installed 3 times now, the original installation, once after the HD died and once after the MB died. Funny thing is the original installation worked perfectly (not Outlook of course).I like it a lot after getting used to the ribbon, I find it easier to use. But waiting 3-4 minutes to open a document stinks. All the office programs do it too. Access, Excel, Word, PowerPoint, even Outlook.Sorry about the vent, but this is so frustrating.Anyway, thanks again
- Hi Rebel,No, brand new HD from Dell.Boinggg, You don't suppose that there's a trial version of office on the disk do you? Oh Man, of course there is It's a refurb Dell HD.Thanks Rebel, for making my brain work. It hit me like a wet towel when you mentioned "other office programs.
