I have developed a strange "problem" where the first document I open after starting word is initially unuseable. This may be related to my not being able to apply the latest patch or not.
When I start word by opening an existing document, or via the application icon, the program appears to load normally. It then opens a the document or creates a new one. Moments later all icons on the windows toolbars become inactive.
I can still type and apply keyboard shortcuts, access the menus, and the theme buttons (Quick Tables etc), but none of the buttons like style, font, zoom, and so on on the toolbar.
The problem is not permanent. If I close the window and open a new window, the new one is fine. If I switch to a different application and back to Word, the inactive window becomes fine. If I minimize the window to my dock and then maximize the window it is fine.
Any ideas?
