I am typing happily when word 2002 freezes and I have to reboot. The document
usually vanishes, but occasionally can be found under autosave. There doesn't
seem to be a problem with any other Ofice XP program.
 
Freezing is usually related to your video driver no longer being good
enough to keep up with new technology you may be using.

Give the suggestions in this article a shot.

It may also be a new addin that's causing the problem, so check out
this article, too...

Dian - Thanks! I am working steadily through all the suggestions and deleting
all those .temp files seems to have done the trick. Wow! There were quite a
few! The obvious ones are deleted and the less so I have moved pending being
able to sus out if they mean anything. Many Thanks for your time.
John.
