Click on unused part of document causes crash

A

I have Works Suite 2000 which includes Word 2000 running
on Windows 98.

I can open Word OK and as long as I don't click on the
document in any area that I haven't entered text then all
is OK.

However, if I click on the page in an area which is beyond
the last piece of text keyed, it crashes and I get the
following error:-

WINWORD caused an invalid page fault in
module WINWORD.EXE at 0187:3020c444.

Annoying or what!

Anyone know how to fix it?

Cheers ... Alan.

It could be that "Click and type" is giving you an error. Disable it on the
Edit tab of Tools | Options.

Annoying it sure is! My first thoughts are a corrupt printer driver is a
graphics driver conflict. Try seeing if there are newer printer and graphics
drivers available and install them first.
