Error when opening Project 2007 file

[Jai]

Hi All,

I download the trial version of microsoft project 2007. I followed all the
instruction in installating and activating the product, however whenever I
try to open a saved file or template the program always crashes.

I download updates for microsoft office 2007 and project 2007 but it seems
it is still not working.

Will buying the full version help?
What if I buy the full version and still experience the same problem, what
now?

Thanks

jai

Thanks for the prompt reply. I would just like to ask why the trial version
cant open files and template although its a basic command?

What if after buying the full version I still experience the same problem,
What else can i do?

Hi,

I never try to understand all the why's from microsoft (please note that

If the final version would not work properly you would have to contact MS
support.

Jan I have the same problem. Have you managed to resolve it yet?

Just a thought. Are eiterh of you using Norton Anti-Virus? If yes, try
disabling the "Microsoft Office" Document integration features with Norton.
It has helped others.

Search this newsgroup for "Norton" and see what you can find, I know someone
else had posted a slightly different solution.

To rate a post, you should see a question or two at the bottom of the post.
Answer the questions and that will "rate" the post. Or, just buy me a cold
one?

Excellent advice. Seems to work fine. I had been pulling my hair out. Many
thanks.

Hi Jim,

That only applies if you use the web sites. Using a browser like Outlook
Express, these options are not available. Personally, I've used Outlook
Express for 11 years now and hate the web based community format - they're
unfriendly and very slow.
