Thanks - I updated my Norton antivirus & when that didn't
work, I diabled the Office checks. Still not working. Any
other ideas?

Likely a Anti-Virus program issue. The worst one being Norton. Try this

and post back if it applies.

I figured it was Norton.
Turn off Norton and then try it.
If that doesn't resolve it then create a new document and test with it to
see if you reproduce the problem. Reason being that Norton will corrupt OLE
containers. So you might have a bad file.
