I found another fix too, Andrew,on Google, just after I'd sent my post. I
had to type winword /r in the Run box and that fixed it. It fixes something
in the registry. The message on Google said that this would work if you had
no problem opening the documents if you went to File, Open and sure enough,
that was what was happening to me. All is working now.
Where is this TaskManager?
