| Hi Stefan,
|
| in addition to doing the KB articles I did your 7 steps. One or two days FP
| 2003 will work fine and then some days or instances I still get "FrontPage
| has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the
| inconvenience."
|
| It doesn't seem to matter if I start one program or another or only FP
| alone. I cannot induce the error above and it seems to happen randomly or at
| least I see no partern.
|
| Prior to your 7 steps I did extensive troubleshooting, several times repair,
| install and uninstall FP 2003 along with several times install and uninstall
| Office 2003 but no joy.
