It is my understanding that MS is aware of this, and is looking into the
proglem.

| Unfortunately the tips provided by David Berry did not work.
|
| To answer Joe's question, it was a clean install of Vista (not upgrade);
| everything from scratch including reformatting the hard drive. Then
| installed FP2003 (upgrade validated by older version of FP). Installed
all
| the Vista and Office updates as recommended by Microsoft.
|
| Another thing I noticed that if I open the FP for the first time and try
to
| insert a hyperlink, it works fine. But the very next hyperlink I try to
| insert, the system crashes as also described by Joe.
|
| Very annoying. I hope Microsoft is reading these messages and come up
with
a
| solution soon.
