I tried opening a file, and received this message;
"Microsoft Office has stopped working." I closed that message, and this
popped up.
Problem caused by Microsoft Word 2002: consider upgrading
The problem was caused by Microsoft Word 2002, which was created by
Microsoft Corporation. Microsoft Word 2002 is in its "Extended Support"
phase. This phase of support began on July 11, 2006. Only security-related
solutions are created by Microsoft for this version of Microsoft Office.
Recommendation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Consider upgrading to the latest version of Microsoft Office to receive full
support. Go online to learn how to upgrade.
We also recommend that you periodically go to the Windows Update website and
use the Microsoft Update option. Microsoft Update provides updates for
Windows and other Microsoft products, including Microsoft Office. To use
Microsoft Update, follow these steps:
Open Windows Update.
Do one of the following:
If you see the text You receive updates: For Windows and other products from
Microsoft Update, click Check for updates, and then go to step 4.
If you see the text You receive updates: For Windows only click Get updates
for more products.
On the Get updates for Windows, Office and more webpage, read and accept the
Terms of Use, and then click Install. Windows Update will begin checking for
updates.
After Windows Update is done checking for updates, click View available
updates, select the updates for Microsoft Office, and then click Install.
When I open 2007 and try to open a file (any file) from before, I get the
message that "The file (filename) is not available."
