Hello,
Pardon my ignorance but was hoping someone can point me in the right direction.-- I have a new DELL and installed a legitimate copy of office
onto it. Whenever i double click a document (Word/Excel)The program
launches, but the document doesnt load.
I reinstalled office and also tried deleting the normal.dot file and
ran word to create a new one. All have not given me a solution. Also did a repair from the help menu in word without help. I'm pretty sure that the file types are listed properly in the tools/folder options
BTW from within Word/Excel i can go to the open menu, and open any file
without difficulty, but I cannot tolerate this problem.
I recently read that someone else also had a similar problem and narrowed down the problem to IconPackager 3.0. Uninstalling the packager program did the trick.
Again, pardon my ignorance, but was hoping someone could help.
Thanks,
a.
