You haven't given us much to go on.
When you say that the Word icon disappears from the task bar... does Word
close, too? Or is Word still running, albeit missing from the task bar?
Also, what version of Word are you using?

The Word Version is 2003. Appearantly Word is still running because when I click on the shortcut on my desktop it advances a document number. i.e., doc 1, doc 2, etc.
Hope this is enough info Herb. Thanks for the help. SGL
