Word KEEPS crashing!

Guest

Microsoft word crashes and gets rid of my work completely after 10 mins of
working, even though Auto-recovery is active. I've lost course work due to
this.

It says:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error!
Program: C:\Programe Files\Microsoft Office\Office 10\ WINDOW.EXE
abnormal progame termination

I've tried reinstalling windows word 2002 (without uninstalling first, i'm
far to cowardly for that) and that didn't work.

HELP please....anybody.

Try to repair MS Word first...

From MS Word HELP...
[[Automatically repair Office programs
Caution Choosing this option will discard many of your customized settings
and restore default settings. For instance, the following will be set back
to the state they appeared when you first installed Office:

The Assistant character selection
Most-recently-used entries on the File menu will be removed
The size of the application window for all applications
Menu and toolbar position and any customizations
Customizations and additions to Office Shortcut Bar
The security level for each application
View settings within the application, such as the Calendar view in Outlook
Your User Name and Initials will also need to re-entered when you restart
your Office applications.

On the Help menu, click Detect and Repair.
To restore the program shortcuts to the Windows Start menu, make sure the
Restore my shortcuts while repairing check box is selected.

Click Start.

Notes
This feature is not available for Office applications earlier than Office
2000.
This procedure detects and repairs problems such as missing files and
registry settings associated with all installed Microsoft Office programs.
It will not repair personal files, such as spreadsheets or documents.
If the Detect and Repair command does not fix the problem, you might need to
reinstall Microsoft Office. ]]

If that doesn't work, UNINSTALL Word, reboot and reinstall Word.

Hope this helps. Let us know.
