Cannot get into Word Documents

[Pencilpusher57]

When I click on Mocrosoft Word, I get a blank page. If I click anywhere on
that page I get a toolbar at the top of the page stating that it is 'not
responding'. The only way that I can get out of that page is Control, Alt,
Delete. Then I get the 'Send Error report'. Sometimes but not always if I
reboot it works for one document but usually not more than one. But on that
one document that does open up, I cannot print because the program does not
recognize my printer. I am gettiing very frustrated by this.

Hi Pencilpusher57,

Have you tried repairing your Word installation? You can do this via the Windows Control Panel (Programs & Features in Vista,
Add/Remove Programs in previous versions).

Anyone else notice that it is Microsoft apps that most often do not respond
to user input?

Typically in Office applications where the user maps inaccessible drive
letters.
